ADSORPTION OF POLYMERS FROM DILUTE AND SE MIDILUTE SOLUTIONS

The recent investigations of the polymer mixtures adsorption have been summarised. The presented experimental evidence indicates the existen ce of interrelation among the adsorption of polymers from mixtures, th e thermodynamic compatibility of components in a solution, the variati on of the thermodynamic quality of a <<mixed solvent>> (polymer + solv ent), and the critical concentration of croosover for each component a nd the averaged concentration for the mixture. The influence of the ag gregation of macromolecules in solutions of mixtures on the adsorption in the concentration regions abow and below critical concentration of macromolecule globules overlapping has been shown.
