The chain trajectory in syndiotactic poly(methyl methacrylate) thermoreversible gels has been studied by neutron scattering. Theoretical fits of the scattering curves are consistent with a double‐stranded helix in which the inner helix adopts a structure proposed by Kusuyama et al. The solvent is thought to be intercalated between the two strands of the double helix.
