The persistence length of wormlike polyelectrolyte chains in the salt-free solutions is calculated on the following two assumptions: (i) the strong electrostatic repulsion of chain segments interrupts the mutual encounter of their monomers within a distance much larger than the monomer dimension, and (ii) the small-angle scattering intensity at zero scattering angle vanishes, or equivalently the osmotic compressibility of the solution is zero. The latter condition is expressed with the radial distribution function g2(R) of the monomers on different polymers as,
N−1n∫(1−g2(R)) dR=1
where N is the total number of monomers in one polymer and n is the number concentration of monomers. The calculated persistence length is proportional to n−1⁄2 in very high monomer concentration and to (n⁄N)−1⁄3 in very low monomer concentration.
