Abstract: The second virial coefficients of ring-shaped polystyrene in cyclohexane were determined at different temperature using low angle laser light scattering photometer (LALLS). The temperature obtained at which the second virial coefficient equals zero is 30 ℃. That is the θ temperature of ring-shaped polystyrene in cyclohexane solution. It is 4.5 ℃ lower than that of linear polystyrene (34.5 ℃). The Mark-Houwink equation of ringshaped polystyrene in cyclohexane at 30 ℃ and 35 ℃ were determined. They are
[η]=5.10×10~(-2) M_W~(0.508), cm~3 g~(-1) [η]=2.70×10~(-2) M_W~(0.576), cm~3 g~(-1)
respectively.
