Popis: The hydrodynamic properties—characterisctic viscosities [ν], translational diffusion D and sedimentation S0— of samples and fractions of oxypropyl cellulose have been investigated in a number of solvents. The relations linking the magnitudes [ν], D and S0 with the degree of polymerization have been established. From the data on translational diffusion and viscometry the authors have determined the equilibrium rigidity of the macromolecules: the size of the statistical segment is (210–240) × 10−8cm. The high rigidity of the macromolecules determines the possibility of the formation of the mesophase in solutions and melts of oxypropyl cellulose.
