I have rewritten some of the Mediawiki markup on Mark-Houwink equation for you. You might want to take a look at the difference so that you can learn common formatting tricks.

Good work! Thank you for contributing an article about mathematical physics.

[edit] A few questions regarding the Mark-Houwink equation article

  • In the opening paragraph, does "typical for good solvents" mean "typical of most solvents", or is a "good solvent" a technical term?
  • Should the sentence "For most flexible polymers, 0.5\leq a\leq 0.8. For semi-flexible polymers, a\ge 0.8. For polymers with an absolute rigid rod, such as Tobacco mosaic virus, a = 2.0" read as "For most flexible polymers, 0.5\leq K\leq 0.8. For semi-flexible polymers, K\ge 0.8. For polymers with an absolute rigid rod, such as Tobacco mosaic virus, K = 2.0"? In other words, should the a's be K's in this sentence?
  • What does the phrase "the GPC data is the same for the two different polymers" mean?

ps You can write your response here. I will see it as I will periodically visit this page.

[edit] An article which you started, or significantly expanded, Mark-Houwink equation, was selected for DYK!

Updated DYK query On December 17, 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Mark-Houwink equation, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.
