Abstract
Extensive work has been done on the effect of the introduction of low molecular weight liquids (plasticizers) into high molecular weight polymer systems (1–3). By plasticizing, one in effect decreases the chain-chain interactions that are present in the bulk. This has been described by a free volume model (4, 5). The examination of plasticized systems leads to information regarding the polymer structure in very concentrated solution. The aims of this investigation are to compare the viscoelastic properties of the plasticized system for solvents of differing thermodynamic compatibility, and to examine the phenomenon of molecular plasticization as contrasted to plasticization of supermolecular or secondary structure (6, 7).
