Mitchell, G.R., Brown, D.J. and Windle, A.H. (1983) Wide-angle X-ray scattering for swollen and glassy poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate). Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics, 184 (9). pp. 1937-1943. ISSN 1022-1352 doi: 10.1002/macp.1983.021840920

Abstract/Summary

The wide angle X-ray scattering from glassy poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (1) is presented together with that obtained from oriented and swollen samples. The scattering is compared with that previously reported for poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and the structure discussed in relation to this polymer. The chain conformation is similar to that of PMMA, although some measure of molecular interlocking appears to reduce the main interchain peak while correlated regions of inaccessible free volume between the substantial side groups are held responsible for the main peak at s = 1,25 Å−1.
