Chain (unit)

The chain is a unit of length equal to 66 feet (22 yards). It is subdivided into 100 links or 4 rods. There are 10 chains in a furlong, and 80 chains in one statute mile. In metric terms, it is 20.1168 m long. By extension, chainage (running distance) is the distance along a curved or straight survey line from a fixed commencing point, as given by an odometer. The chain has been used for several centuries in England and in some other countries influenced by English practice. In the United Kingdom, there were 80 chains to the mile, but until the early nineteenth century the Scottish and Irish customary miles were longer than the statute mile; consequently a Scots chain was about 74 (imperial) feet, an Irish chain 84 feet. These longer chains became obsolete following the adoption of the imperial system of units in 1824. (Wikipedia).

Calculating Molecular Weight (number and weight average) for polymers

Molecular weight is an important for polymers. Since polymer processing typically produces a distribution of different chain lengths, both short and long, we need a tool that calculates the average molecular weight. We can do this based on number average or weight average. Degree of polyme
