Abstract

AbstractOsmotic and isotopic water flows through polymeric and nonaqueous liquid membranes have been measured. The polymeric membranes were of the polyethylene–styrene graft copolymer type containing sulfonic acid groups. The nonaqueous liquid membranes were water‐saturated 1‐butanol and benzene. Osmotic water flux through both types of membranes was larger than isotopic (THO) water flux. Using these data, values for the equivalent pore radius for these membranes have been derived. The significance of such values has been briefly discussed.
