Anisotropy of styrene–butadiene rubber (SBR) was investigated. The anisotropy of the copolymer varies linearly with the styrene content and the ultimate value coincides with that of polystyrene at elevated temperature. From these facts, the transverse configuration of the pendant phenyl group is estimated irrespective of the styrene content of SBR.
