A phase diagram of poly(methyl methacrylate) in mixtures of water and 2-propanol, individually nonsolvents for the polymer, was studied at 25 Β°C. For this system, there were two liquid-liquid demixing regions separated by a miscible region. This cosolvent phenomenon was thought to be a joint effect

The cloud points for the co-nonsolvent systems (it pyridine (PY) + formic acid (FA) towards poly(e-caprolactone) (PCL) or poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and (ii) pyridine + acetic acid (AA) towards PCL have been experimentally determined as a function of solvent composition at fixed polymer concen
The viscometric behaviour and the preferential solvation of poly(4-tert-butylphenyl methacrylate) (PBPh) in tetrahydrofuran/water mixtures have been studied. The results show that water enhances the solubility of this polymer. The system PBPh-tetrahydrofuran-water was studied in detail for 6 fractio
## Abstract Microspheres based on synthetic polymers such as poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and PMMA blends are known for their medical and optical applications. The development of methods for processing polymeric microspheres using a nontoxic solvent, like supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO~2~),
