Abstract

The osmotic compressibility of chemically crosslinked poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) gels in equilibrium with pure diluent has been determined by the method of decreasing equilibrium swelling in different swelling agents. The concentration dependence of the osmotic compressibility has been found to follow a scaling law with an exponent which was greater than that predicted by the mean‐field theory. A comparison has been made between the elastic moduli determined by unidirectional deformation measurements and the compressional moduli obtained from the osmotic compressibility data.

The epoxy resin/polyurethane semi-IPN was prepared and the glass transition behavior of the semi-IPN was discussed with DSC and DMA methods. The results show that the two glass transition temperatures (T,) referring to epoxy resin and polyurethane respectively get closer. Between the two T, there ex
