مستخلص: Concentration dependences of flow birefringence and viscosity of poly( N-vinylpyrrolidone) solutions in water and benzyl alcohol are investigated. The intrinsic anisotropy for a poly( N-vinylpyrrolidone) macromolecular segment, (α − α) = −(82 ± 8) × 10 cm, is determined from the results of birefringence measurements in benzyl alcohol. For aqueous solutions, a strong concentration dependence of the specific anisotropy of solution is obtained, a result that may be explained by the heterogeneity of coils. A model allowing for this heterogeneity is suggested. It makes it possible to fit the concentration dependence to a hyperbolic function, to separate contributions of heterogeneity anisotropy and form anisotropy to the birefringence of a solution, and to estimate the segment asymmetry parameter as p = 3.0 ± 0.5.
