Abstract
- The optimized Rouse-Zimm approach to the local dynamics of polymer solutions (ORZLD) is extended to describe star polymers. A first-order model in the ORZLD hierarchy is defined for dilute θ solutions, based on a freely rotating chain (FRC) description of semiflexible stars. The partially stretched FRC star model is found in fairly good agreement with the available shrinking factor data on polystyrene stars as a function of molecular weight.
