Effect of carbon dioxide sorption on chain and small molecule diffusion in polymers
Compressible and supercritical fluids such as CO2 have gained popularity as a medium for polymer processing. The growing interest in such fluids is due to the attractive physical and chemical properties. Even though CO2 is an effective transient plasticizing solvent for most practical polymers, its...
