A novel approach for the determination of the viscosity‐average molecular weight of polymers for which Mark–Houwink constants are not known is presented. This method can be applied to narrow as well as broad‐molecular‐weight‐distribution polymer samples and requires only the GPC chromatogram and viscosity data. The proposed method was tested using polystyrene and poly(methyl methacrylate) in toluene and THF. Molecular weights computed by the proposed approach are in good agreement with those obtained using conventional techniques.
