โฆ Synopsis
Anomalous sorption curves have often been observed for differential sorption experiments in glassy polymers. A model is proposed to describe this non-Fickian behavior. This model is based on the presence of interfacial resistance caused by slow rate processes at the phase boundary. Predictions of the model are compared with general experimental observations.

A model of continuous-site distribution for gas sorption in glassy polymers is examined with sorption data of CO 2 and Ar in polycarbonate. A procedure is presented for determining from a measured isotherm the number of sorption sites in a polymer, an important parameter that previously had to be as
On the basis of known nonlinearity of intermolecular force fields, we discuss the interpretation of PVT (pressure, volume, and temperature) behavior, pressure-temperature superposition for polymers, and the relationship between yield stress and tensile modulus. For PVT behavior of polymers, our theo
## Abstract The purpose of this article is to elucidate the effect of integral sorption of moisture on gas permeation in glassy hydrophilic polymers. The oxygen and the simultaneous moisture sorption into various hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) films were measured under a wide range of relativ
