Abstract:
A living polymer system is used to study the effect of concentration on a broad, polydisperse two-dimensional polymer system. It is found that the mean squared end-to-end radius of a chain of L monomers does not decrease by following a simple power law of the concentration but by a function of the form . An origin for such a behaviour is proposed.
