Preferred Label : viscosity function;
Detailed label : viscosity function, Φ;
IUPAC definition : A coefficient connecting the intrinsic viscosity, the radius of gyration and the molar
mass of a chain macromolecule, according to the equation: \[{[}η {]} \frac{\mathit{\Phi
}\ 6 {3/2}\ ( s {2} ) {3/2}}{M}\] where [η] is the intrinsic viscosity, s is the
radius of gyration and M is the molar mass. The viscosity function is often referred
to as the Flory constant.;
