Sumario: | We developed a predictive Quantitative Structure-Property Relationship (QSPR) for the refractive indices of 234 structurally diverse polymers. The model involves a single molecular descriptor and a conformation-independent approach. The most appropriate polymer structure representation was investigated by considering 1-5 monomeric repeating units. The established equations were validated and tested through various well-known techniques, such as the use of an external test set of compounds, the Cross-Validation method, Y-Randomization and Applicability Domain, and finally a comparison was also performed to published results from the li terature. The developed QSPR could be useful for assisting the development of new polymeric materials. © 2014 Elsevier B.V. |
