Abstract
Intrinsic viscosities [η] in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at 30°C are reported for ten narrow molecular weight distribution poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) samples covering nearly two orders of magnitude in molecular weight. By combining the viscosity results with absolute weight-average molecular weights {Mathematical expression} determined via low-angle laser light scattering (LALLS) experiments, we have accurately determined the Mark-Houwink-Sakurada (MHS) parameters for this polymer-solvent pair (K=7.56x105 and a=0.731, when [η] is in dL g-1).
