Notes:
A study was made of interpolymer complex formation between polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) with phenolic polymers (PPF) in an acetone-methanol mixture by several methods; for example, viscosity, potentiometry, conductometry, turbidity, and precipitate (complex) weight. A distinct stepwise complex formation between PVP and phenolic polymers was observed by these methods. As in polycarboxylic acid, however, PEO formed a 1:1 complex with phenolic polymers. Some of these observations have been interpreted in terms of the structure of the polymers, preferential solvation of the component polymers, and the probable change in conformation of the complex molecules in mixed solvents.
