Polyelectrolytes near the rod limit

Odijk, Theo·1977·Journal of Polymer Science: Polymer Physics Edition

Abstract

The problem of a polyelectrolyte near the rod limit is formulated incorporating both the short‐range stiffness of the backbone (the “wormlike chain”) and the electrostatic interaction between segments taken as a Debye–Húckel potential. By the use of a physically valid approximation an expression is derived for the mean‐square extension length of a short polyelectrolyte chain. Some remarks are made on the relationship between the electrostatic interaction and the usual excluded‐volume problem for polymer solutions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
