## Abstract Heats of water vapor sorption by three biopolymers, polygalacturonic acid, sodium hyaluronate, and calcium salt of bovine submaxillary mucin, were determined calorimetrically. These calorimetric heats of sorption were compared with the isosteric heats of sorption as a function of water

A solvatochromic method was used to characterize the water sorption behavior of polymer films. Four different dyes were dissolved in various solid polymers and the relative water vapor pressure in the atmosphere was changed. Evaluated solvatochromic parameters depended not only on the amount of sorb
The sorption and transport of water in nylon 6,6 films as functions of the relative humidity (RH) and temperature were studied. Moisture-sorption isotherms determined gravimetrically at 25, 35, and 45°C were described accurately by the GAB equation. Water-vapor transmission rates were enhanced above
Successive desorption experiments of water vapor in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were performed at temperatures from 31.0 to 45.0°C. The solubility of water in PMMA was found to be independent of temperature in agreement with literature findings. But the results for diffusion showed stronger dep
The use of two modified BET models for modeling water vapor sorption in various nonideal systems involving strong interactions (textiles, polyamides, polyimide, vinyl polymers, proteins, and related compounds) has been investigated. Contrary to the original BET model derived for multimolecular adsor
