Notizen:
The kinetics and equilibria of benzene sorption in poly(ethylene terephthalate) were measured at 40°C, 50°C, and 60°C, with benzene activities ranging from 0.02 to 0.3. At most experimental conditions, diffusion was found to be Fickian; however, evidence of non-Fickian transport was found at the highest activity levels. Values of the diffusion coefficient of benzene range from 10-14 cm2/s at 40°C to 10-12 cm2/s at 60°C in the limit of low concentrations. Nonlinear isotherms observed for benzene sorption were successfully interpreted in terms of the dual mode model for sorption in glassy polymers, whereby the sorbed penetrant exists as two populations: one sorbed according to Henry's law and the other following a Langmuir isotherm. Non-Fickian transport data were correlated with a model that superimposes diffusion of both the Henry's law and Langmuir populations (the “partial immobilization” model) upon first-order relaxation of the polymer matrix.
