Combining the FH entropy of mixing and the standard RS enthalpy of mixing yields the FH solution theory for polymers: ∆G N = Bφ1φ2 + RT (φ1 lnφ1 + φ2 N lnφ2). As written above, this equation is comparable to the free energy of mixing from the Regular Solution Model. Notice that the expressions differ in two ways: first, FH is cast in volume fractions rather than mole fractions, and second, FH i...

Effectiveness of furfural as an organic inhibitor in 5 percent hydrochloric acid which is used in acid pickling of steel was evaluated. Lungmuir, Frumkin and Flory-Huggins isotherms [1, 2] were used to determine the parameters of effective adsorption, free energy and entropy of adsorption. Furfural indicated an inhibition less than 17 percent in concentrations of 0.001 mole per liter for a dura...

In oredr to reduce costs and save time for the membrane manufacturing process, it is necessary to improve the quality of membranes by modeling usage. In this study, Flory Huggins model was used to predict quaternary-system containing polyether sulfone, N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone, water and used alkanes as an additive. Due to the solubility parameters and molar alkane volumes, the interaction parame...

In the present work, vinyl benzyl chloride (VBC) was polymerized by using free radical polymerization. The obtained PVBC reacted with dibutyl amine to obtain tertiary modified polystyrene based polymer (PVBC-Dibutyl amine). inverse gas chromatography (IGC) method used examine thermodynamic properties of polymer. Firstly, retention diagrams some polar and non-polar solvents on PVBC-Dibutyl were ...

Understanding working principles and thermodynamics behind phase separations, which have significant influences on condensed molecular structures their performances, can inspire to design fabricate anomalously desirably mechanoresponsive hydrogels. However, a combination of techniques from physicochemistry mechanics has yet been established for the separation in In this study, thermodynamic mod...

The Flory–Huggins (FH) isotherm first appeared in the literature of water contaminant adsorption mid-2000s. It has come into limelight and received considerable attention recent years, large part due to regular coverage review articles. Here, we point out that a linear form FH is incompatible with original nonlinear version. We show conclusively was destroyed beyond recognition by linearization...

A polymer network can absorb a solvent and swell, forming an elastomeric gel. The model of ideal elastomeric gels is based on two assumptions. First, the volume of a gel is the sum of the volume of the dry network and that of the solvent. Second, the free energy of the gel is the sum of the free energy due to stretching the network and that due to mixing the polymer and the solvent. These assum...
