flory theta solvent
A Flory theta solvent will not change the chain expansion of the polymer. A Flory solvent is between a good solvent and a poor solvent.
A
good solvent
will cause the polymer chains to expand, increasing the
end to end distance
.
A poor solvent will cause the polymer chains to contract, decreasing the
end to end distance
.
