Molar mass distribution

Function describing the relation between a polymer species' molar mass and number of moles

In polymer chemistry, the molar mass distribution describes the relationship between the number of moles of each polymer species and the molar mass of that species. In linear polymers, the individual polymer chains rarely have exactly the same degree of polymerization and molar mass, and there is always a distribution around an average value. The molar mass distribution of a polymer may be modified by polymer fractionation.
