Thermodynamic Interaction Parameters in Polymer-Solutions and Gels
Polymer-solvent interaction parameters are reported for poly(vinyl acetate)-acetone, poly(vinyl acetate)-toluene, and poly(dimethyl siloxane)-toluene systems using different techniques. Results obtained by osmotic deswelling are compared with those from quasielastic light scattering and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). In gels, the latter techniques involve separation of the time-dependent from the static component of the scattered radiation. Separation is achieved in quasi-elastic light scattering through the heterodyning properties of the light, and in SANS by subtracting an appropriate static structure factor. The interaction parameters obtained by different separation procedures are consistent with measurements using the osmotic method.
