摘要
A semi-empirical formula for orientational relaxation times of worm-like chains in dilute solutions is proposed tau congruent to 27/8 x(3) . [1 - 3/4 x + 3/4 x exp (- 4/3x)](3) tau(rod) where tau(rod) = tau(0)N(3) is the relaxation time of a rigid rod composed of N segments, and x = 2a/L is the chain rigidity, i.e. the ratio of the double persistence length to the chain contour length, L. The formula, which can be used in the entire range of molecular rigidities and chain lengths, has been tested against segment relaxation times for semi-rigid chains calculated from the optimized Rouse-Zimm model.
