Abstract:The results compare favorably with those obtained by careful refractionation of fractions isolated by the precipitation method. A convenient parameter, U, related to the breadth of the molecular weight distribution can be calculated from the slope of the log‐probability plot. When the plot is linear, U, is numerically equal to the ratio Mw/Mn. Values of U obtained for a number of commercial and experimental polypropylenes indicate that, with a given type of polypropylene, the breadth of the distribution increa… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
