Onsager Theory for Rigid-Rod Liquid Crystalline Polymers

ONSAGER THEORY FOR RIGID —ROD LIQUID CRYSTALLINE POLYMERS [Pg.54]

Onsager (1949) was the first to study theoretically the rigid-rod system in solution which is composed of identical long cylindrical rods with length L and diameter D, and where L much greater than D. Only the steric interaction is considered in this theory and the following requirements must be met [Pg.54]
