Abstract

Solvent activities were measured using a gravimetric method in the range 48–70°C. The polymers were: 15-arm, 20-arm star and linear poly(ethylene oxide), and 8-arm star and linear polystyrene. The solvents were acetone, chloroform and cyclohexane. In the concentrated regime, to 0.5 solvent weight fraction, there is no significant effect of polymer structure on solvent activities.
