The specific retention volumes, Vg degrees, weight fraction activity coefficients of solute probes at infinite dilution, Omega (infinity)(1) Flory-Huggins thermodynamic interaction parameters, chi (infinity)(12), between polymers and solvents, the partial molar free energy, DeltaG(1)(infinity), the partial molar heat of mixing, DeltaH(1)(infinity), were determined. All the liquids were found to be nonsolvents for poly (2-hydroxy ethyl methacrylate) at 130-150 degreesC. The solubility parameters for PHEMA at infinite dilution were found by plotting the graph of [(delta (2)(1)/RT) - chi (infinity)(12)/VI] versus solubility parameters, delta (1), of these probes. The solubility parameter values of PHEMA found from both the slope and intercept in Fig. 2 are 6.24 (cal/cm(3))(0.5) and 7.08 (cal/cm(3))(0.5) at 140 degreesC.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccesspoly (2-hydroxy ethyl methacrylate)inverse gas chromatographypolymer-solvent interactionssolubility parameterpartial molar heat of mixingpartial molar free energy of mixingArticle20535136310.1515/POLYENG.2000.20.5.351Q3WOS:0001657556000032-s2.0-0034506535Q3
