Abstract

Results of temperature dependence of the optical Kerr effect in a series of homologous polyoxyethylenediols are presented. The molecular Kerr constant was found to increase with growing molecular weight of a polydiol. The temperature dependence ofthe optical Kerr effect clearly indicates the influence of viscosity in these media.
