โœฆ Synopsis


It is demonstrated that, although addition of n-propanol to aqueous poly(vinyl alcohol) solutions prevents their aging, the polymer is not present in a molecularly dispersed form. Further, it is shown that viscometry is not a suitable method to study the degree of dispersion of poly(vinyl alcohol) in water or water.n-propanol solution. The results of turbidity measurements as a function of poly(vinyl alcohol) concentration, n-propanol concentration and time suggest that it is a change of solvent quality rather than a specific interaction between polymer and n-propanol that is responsible for the suppression of aging effects.

## Abstract The light transmittance of the gels of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/phenol/water solutions was examined for the entire range of phenol/water content. Excellent transparency was found for the gels with phenol contents of 70โ€“95 vol %. In full consideration of the results for the transparency
