CRC Handbook of Liquid-Liquid Equilibrium Data of Polymer Solutions


Book Description

Thermodynamic data form the basis for separation processes used in different fields of science and industry, from specialty chemicals to foods and pharmaceuticals. One obstacle to developing new production processes, products, or optimization is the lack, or inaccessibility, of experimental data related to phase equilibrium. Access More Than 1200 Data Sets, Including 810 Binary Systems, 325 Ternary Systems, and 25 Quaternary (or Higher) Systems The CRC Handbook of Liquid-Liquid Equilibrium Data of Polymer Solutions provides a thorough and up-to-date compilation of experimental liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) data and their original sources. Arranged in a consistent format, the handbook provides convenient access to cloud-point and coexistence data as well as upper and lower critical solution temperatures and important demixing data for each system. An Excellent Companion to the Author’s Previous Collections of Thermodynamic Data! While the author’s previous data compilations center around specific types of polymer systems, Wohlfharth’s latest work distinguishes itself by focusing instead on representing LLE data for all types of polymer systems in a single source.




Vapour-liquid Equilibrium Data of Binary Polymer Solutions


Book Description

Knowledge of vapour-liquid equilibrium (VLE) data is necessary for the proper understanding of a large number of industrial and laboratory processes. Such data allow a grasp of the thermodynamic behaviour of mixtures, the study of intermolecular interactions and enable insight into the molecular nature of mixtures. They are also a basis for the development of theoretical thermodynamic models. Scientists and engineers will obviously benefit from a careful collection of the existing data.This book aims to provide a reliable collection of such data. Original data have been gathered from around 450 literature sources, including 80 journals and a number of dissertations and diploma papers. Previously unpublished data from the Thermodynamic Department of the former Merseburg-University and the author's own data sets are included.The VLE-data are divided into three chapters:1. Vapour pressures of binary polymer solutions (or solvent activities) - Chapter 22. Segment-molar excess Gibbs free energies of binary polymer solutions (in the form of Redlich-Kister parameters) - Chapter 33. Weight fraction Henry-constants for gases and vapours in molten polymers (from inverse gas-liquid chromatography measurements) - Chapter 4.A short introduction to the experimental methods and data reduction is included as Chapter 1. There are indexes for the polymers and solvents cited.




CRC Handbook of Thermodynamic Data of Polymer Solutions, Three Volume Set


Book Description

Providing valuable insight on physical behavior of polymer solutions, intermolecular interactions, and the molecular nature of mixtures, each volume in this one-of-a-kind handbook brings together reliable, easy-to-use entries, references, tables, examples, and appendices on experimental data from hundreds of primary journal articles, dissertations, and other published papers. This three-volume set presents hundreds of data sets including VLE/gas solubility isotherms, LLE and HPPE for polymer systems in supercritical fluids, as well as volumetric, enthalpic, and virial coefficient data sets, essential for handling industrial and laboratory processes involving all types of polymer systems.




CRC Handbook of Thermodynamic Data of Polymer Solutions at Elevated Pressures


Book Description

This handbook provides the only complete collection of high-pressure thermodynamic data that is essential for understanding polymer solutions.
