Abstract The differences in solubility of poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) and poly(methyl acrylate) (PMA) were addressed by applying atomistic Monte Carlo simulation techniques. Polymer segments consisting of nine monomer units serve as model compounds for polymer chains. As a measure of intermolecular interactions with the solvent environment, cohesion energies of the polymer segments embedded in either the corresponding monomer or in CO2 were calculated. Only in case of PMA segments in CO2 environment, specific interactions between polymer segments were identified. This finding is in agreement with experimental results on phase behaviour and propagation kinetics.
