Summary
The
Theta condition
is a specific state in
polymer chemistry
where a
polymer solution
behaves as an
ideal solution
, meaning the polymer-polymer and
polymer-solvent interactions
are balanced, resulting in the polymer adopting a
random coil configuration
. This condition is critical for understanding
polymer behavior
in solvents and is used to determine
intrinsic properties
such as
molecular weight
and
radius of gyration
.
