Abstract Sensitivity analysis of free-volume theory para­meters have been done in ternary polymer-solvent-solvent systems. Two ternary polymer-solvent-solvent systems have been studied: poly(styrene)-tetrahydrofuran-p-xylene and poly(methyl methacrylate)-ethylbenzene-tetrahydrofuran systems. Simulation analysis has been done to see the effect of all parameters involved in predicting the self-diffusion coefficient in polymer-solvent systems. Sensitivity analysis showed that the predictions are highly sensitive to ξ13 and ξ23 and, therefore, they need to be predicted with good accuracy and these two are not pure component properties.

AbstractThe free volume theory has found practical application for prediction of diffusional behavior of polymer/solvent systems. In this paper, reviewing free volume theory, binary mutual diffusion coefficients in some polymer/solvent systems have been systematically presented through chemical thermodynamic modeling in terms of both activity coefficients and fugacity coefficients models. Here chemical thermodynamic model of compressible regular solution (CRS) was used for evaluation of diffusion coefficients calculations as the pure component properties would be required only. Four binary polymeric solutions of cyclohexane/polyisobutylene,
