Notes:
For three different equation-of-state theories the characteristic parameters of two polymers were calculated, and the ability of the theories to describe PVT-data using these parameters was investigated. The comparison between the different theories shows that, concerning the description of PVT-data, the modified cell model of Dee and Walsh is not only superior to the theory of Flory, Orvoll and Vrij and that of Sanchez and Lacombe as reported before, but also to the theory of Simha and Somecynsky and the open cell model of Zhong, Wang and Lu. Finally, simple formulae are given to calculate the characteristic parameters of the latter two theories from those of the theory of Flory, Orwoll and Vrij.
