The molecular weight distribution characteristics derived from an inverse Laplace transformation (ILT) of a stretched exponential PGSTE NMR response function (SEF) is discussed with reference to the scaling law between diffusivity ( D ) and molecular mass ( M ) ( D = KM −α ). Two general equations are presented, enabling the polydispersity index (PDI) and the average molecular weights ( M w , M n , and M med ) to be determined from α and the two characteristic parameters β and D 0 of the (normalized) SEF (= exp [(− D 0 t ) β ]). A detailed discussion regarding the derivation of the two equations is presented.
