The sorption of propane in poly(ethy1 methacrylate) was investigated above and below the polymer T ' and the dual-mode sorption model parameters were evaluated. The Langmuir capacity decreased as the temperature was raised to 2"' ' and the apparent Henry's law constant exhibited a discontinuity at T

β¦ Synopsis
Vapor sorption data were obtained for the ethylbenzene-poly(ethy1 methacrylate) system at 120OC. Successive step-change sorption experiments carried out at two-film thicknesses indicate the presence of maxima in the sorption curves. The fractional amount of overshoot decreased as the final pressure or weight fraction of the experiment increased and as the sample thickness increased. It is proposed that the maxima in the sorption curves are caused by structural rearrangements produced by relaxation of polymer chains.
