O. Pekcan et M. Canpolat, LIGHT-ABSORPTION METHOD TO STUDY SMALL-MOLECULE PENETRATION INTO NONAQUEOUS DISPERSION PARTICLES, Pure and applied chemistry, A30, 1993, pp. 271-279
The diffusion of Pentane and Methylcyclohexane (MCH) molecules into no
naqueous dispersion (NAD) of, poly(methyl methacrylate)(PMMA) sterical
ly stabilized by polyisobutylene (PIB) were studied by UV absorption m
ethod. Uptake curves were generated by measuring absorbance of 9-anthr
yl methyl pivale (AMP)which was penetrated into NAD particles together
with above solvents. It was found that Pentane molecules diffused muc
h faster than MCH molecules into PIB-PMMA interphase.
