Abstract
The conformatiopn of polystyrene in the anti-solvent process of supercritical fluids(compressed CO2+polystyrene +toluene)has been studied by small angle x-ray scattering with synchrotron radiation as an x-ray source.Coilto-globule transformation of the polystyrene chain was observed with the increase of the anti-solvent CO2 pressure;i.e.polystrene coiled at a prssure lower than the cloud point pressure(Pc)and turned into a globle with a uniform density at pressures higher than Pc.Fractal behaviour was also found in the chain contraction.and the mass fractal dimension increased with increasing CO2 pressure.
