Abstract
The polymer polyvinylchloride has been studied in binary solvent mixtures and as a function of temperature in solution. A discontinuity of the polymer chain dimensions has been observed, as measured by hydrodynamic methods. This phenomenon is further examined by infrared and Raman spectroscopy. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 37: 1351-1356, 1999
