Notes:
The sorption of nitrogen vapors on polyethylene, polytetrafluoroethylene, saran, polyvinylalcohol, polyvinylacetate, polystyrene, cellulose and ethylcellulose at the nitrogen boiling point has been investigated. It has been shown that polyethylene, polytetrafluoroethylene, saran, polyvinylalcohol and polyvinylacetate are non-porous sorbents with dense packing of the macromolecules. It has been shown that the specific surface area of cellulose, ethylcellulose and the total pore volume of polystyrene calculated from nitrogen vapor sorption is less than the corresponding value determined from the sorption of organic substances. Nitrogen vapor sorption at the nitrogen boiling point cannot be used for estimating the porosity of loosely packed polymers.
