Notes:
Fundamental thermodynamic interaction data for various solvents with two styrene-butadiene-styrene triblock copolymers (Kraton D-1101 and Kraton D-1300X) have been collected by the use of inverse gas chromatography at infinite dilution. Experimental results are presented for nine D-1101/solvent systems and nine D-1300X/solvent systems at 308, 328. and 348 K. Weight-fraction activity coefficients and Flory-Huggins χ interaction parameters have been calculated from the retention volumes. The χ parameter is used as a measure of the strength of interaction and therefore as a guide in the prediction of polymer-solvent compatibility. In addition, partial molar heats of mixing, ΔHm∞, and heats of solution, ΔHs, were determined. The Hildebrand-Scatchard solubility theory was combined with the Flory theory in order to estimate the solubility parameter of the thermoplastic rubbers at the three different temperatures.
