Bernard Lemaire, Georges Fourche · Journal of Polymer Science Part A-2 Polymer Physics · 1971

Abstract A study of the average molecular optical anisotropy 〈γ2〉 of tetrahedral lattice polyethylene chains of any length has been carried out by using Markov processes. The results of this treatment include simplified models of polymer chains, as well as more elaborate models, which are in current use.
