Abstract
AbstractStockmayer's formula for the weight average of cross‐linked primary chains is extended to the z‐average degree of polymerization . This average is a function of the weight‐ and z‐average degree of polymerization λw and λz of the primary chain distribution and the branching density α: . Higher averages of branched polymers from monomers of type and with functionalities f ⩾ 2 are discussed.
