β¦ Synopsis
The intrinsic viscosity [g] and HugginsΓ constant k@ of PVC have been derived using Γow data obtained from dilute solution in cyclohexanone and in its blends with xylene at temperatures ranging from 10 to 50Β‘C. PolymerΓsolvent interaction parameters, and are obtained from intrinsic viscosityΓ K e M K b Mb temperature relationships suggested by Fort et al. (Fort, R. J., Hutchinson, R. J., Moore, W. R. & Murphy, M., Polymer, 4 (1963) 35). The intrinsic parameters are used to estimate the dissolution characteristics of PVC in cyclohexanone and in its blends with xylene. It is found that at ambient temperature a blend of 1 : 1 cyclohexanone : xylene is a better solvent for PVC than cyclohexanone alone. (
