Abstract:

The analysis of SANS data for a series of the poly(benzyl ether) dendrimers of different molecular architecture in deuterated tetrahydrofuran and toluene allowed to obtain information about some regularities of the relation between the topology of the dendrimer molecule and its structural parameters. The dimension of the present dendrimers of the poly(benzyl ether) type points to a scaling law of the type R-g similar to M-1/3 in line with literature information obtained for other chemically different dendrimers.
