The transport of gaseous ethylene oxide (EtO) in several polymer films is studied using the carrier gas method of measurement. Permeability, solubility, and diffusion coefficients describing ethylene oxide (EtO) transport in polypropylene, polyvinylchloride, Teflon-FEP copolymer, and polyethylene films have been obtained over a 30 Celsius degree range at a low concentration of EtO using the carrier gas method of measurement. The results indicate that the diffusion of EtO in polyethylene is independent of penetrant concentration over the range of concentrations used. However, concentration-independent diffusion could not be verified directly for the other films studied. Two different techniques of determining diffusion coefficients were used, and within the precision of the data both yield the same result. An excess enthalpy of solution for the solubility of EtO in Teflon-FEP copolymer was calculated, an observation that suggests that dual-mode sorption may be taking place.
