文摘The chain length dependency of molar association constant K_a of polymer in solution was investigated theoretically. K_a is proportional to the effective hydrodynamic volume V_ eff of polymer chain in solution. V_ eff is the product of a shape factor and hydrodynamic volume. On the basis of these results, the observed enhancement of Huggins coefficient for short chain and branched polymer could be satisfactorily interpreted.
