Summary: This paper introduces a simple mean‐field theory for gels with magnetic properties. The main emphasis in this paper is the discussion of the scattering properties. Therefore, a simple model is introduced, such that the chains carry magnetic moments along their main axis. Naturally these magnetic moments interact sensitively to theory orientation with each other. Thus a distinguished interplay between chain and dipole orientation induces strong coupling between the macroscopic deformation and magnetic properties. These effects can be experimentally demonstrated with scattering methods. Here some mean‐field expressions for the structure factors are predicted and discussed in some detail.
