Download: Payne Cell Gravimetric Measurements in Polymer-solvent Systems for Diffusion Coefficients and Isotherm Data

Originally published in Journal of Applied Polymer Science on September 23, 2020

Payne cells historically are used to measure steady-state permeation rates of solvents, but this paper focuses on the application of a Payne cell to the measurement of diffusion and solubility coefficients in polymer/solvent systems in two different toluene-silicone rubber systems. An analytical model was developed to describe transient gravimetric sorption and desorption measurements performed with a Payne cell.
