Diffusion in polymer-diluent systems

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss some selected topics with which they have a relatively greater acquaintance but which they feel are of fundamental importance for understanding the current situation in this field of polymer research.

Diffusion of Gases in Polyethylene Terephthalate

TL;DR: In this paper, a model for diffusion in glassy amorphous and crystalline polymers is proposed, assuming that the driving force for diffusion is the concentration gradient of dissolved molecules which are assumed to be in local equilibrium with molecules in the ''holes'' The model predicts that actual diffusion constants and activation energies are larger than those experimentally measured.

Viscoelastic (Non-Fickian) Diffusion

TL;DR: In this paper, a review paper dealing with mass transport in macromolecular materials is presented, where several models for diffusion as well as several experimental techniques are discussed, from a continuum mechanics point of view and via a mesoscopic theory.

17. Permeation, Diffusion, and Sorption of Gases and Vapors

TL;DR: In this article, a model that provides a consistently accurate representation of the permeation of gases above their critical temperatures, at atmospheric and sub-mospheric pressures, through non-swollen rubbery polymers that do not contain crystallites or fillers is presented.

Continuum thermodynamics and transport theory for polymer—fluid mixtures

TL;DR: In this article, a self-consistent, continuum theory for the transport of small molecular-weight fluids in polymeric media is established, which can describe Fickian, Case II and other non-Fickian diffusion phenomena.
