Abstract

Previous work on the two-dimensional approach to polymer miscibility in organic liquids is extended to polymer–mixed liquid system. From thermodynamic considerations methods for calculating δh of the mixed liquid and χH of the polymer–mixed liquid system from properties of pure components are proposed, where δh is the hydrogen-bonding solubility parameter of the liquid, and χH is a term which takes account of the dispersion and polar interactions between the liquid and the polymer and of effects due to temperature and molecular size of the liquid. Using these two calculated parameters, the solvent power of the mixed liquid can be determined from its location on the χ plane.
