Abstract
An unmodified model 301 Mechrolab osmometer is used to determine the molecular weight of a series of polyvinylacetate polymers of relatively low degrees of polymerization in acetone, benzene, carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, and methanol. Anomalous results were obtained with chloroform. The solute–solvent parameter μ1 and molecular weight are calculated with the Flory–Huggins theoretical equation.Keywords
