Intrinsic Viscosity

Intrinsic Viscosity is defined as the nonzero viscosity intercept extrapolated to zero concentration of solute, which is measure of the solute/solvent interaction. The Intrinsic Viscosityis generally designed by the symbol ?. Since this quantity is taken to represent a minimum as the concentration of solute approaches zero, it is assumed that the configuration of the solute is in relaxed condition and occupies a preferred, or optimal solvent accommodation. An expression known as the Mark-Howink relation can be used to determine values related to the shape and size of the particles giving rise to theIntrinsic Viscosity.
