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

β¦ Synopsis
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 ' . The enthalpy of microvoid filling A HH is more exothermic than the enthalpy of dissolution at T < Tg by about 8 kJ/mol.
