Summary

Systems of poly(ethylene oxide)/polystyrene and of poly(ethylene oxide)/poly(styrene-co-acrylic acid) of different ratios were studied by inverse gas chromatography using benzene and n-decane as molecule probes and by viscosimetry in tetrahydrofuran. The transition temperatures as shown in the retention diagrams and the interaction parameters as determined by inverse gas chromatography and by viscosimetry showed that whereas poly(ethylene oxide) is incompatible with polystyrene, the introduction of amounts of acrylic acid groups into polystyrene chains by free radical copolymerization led to compatible systems of the acidic copolymer with the poly(ethylene oxide).
