title: Light scattering from solutions of a semi-flexible polymer and a polyelectrolyte both having sharp molecular weight distributions.
abstract: The particle scattering factor in light scattering is determined for poly(tert-butyl crotonate) in n-butyl chloride and also for partially neutralized poly (acrylic acid) in aqueous solution in the presence of added neutral salt (NaBr). The former is a wormlike chain which is extended due to stiffness of the polymer chain, while the latter is extended due to the electrostatic repulsive force which is a kind of excluded volume effect. A clear difference is found between P(theta) of both polymers.
