Notes:
The influence of two distinct types of water leachable polymeric additives upon the transport properties across polymer latex films is considered. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, added as an aqueous solution, and a methyl methacrylate-methacrylic acid copolymer, added as latex particles, are both shown to be more effective than lower molecular weight rapidly water soluble additives, typified by sucrose, in enhancing solute transport and creating pathways for convective diffusion.
