Abstract:
Experimental data for the intermolecular interaction in block and graft copolymers and also the relation between their molecular structure and the properties of their solutions are examined systematically and critically. Problems concerning micelle formation, the microstructure, the conformation, and especially the thermodynamic properties of solutions of graft copolymers are described and the characteristic features of the influence of individual factors on the properties of solutions of graft copolymers are discussed. The bibliography includes 100 references.
