摘要
When moving solvent fronts meet at the centre of a glassy polymer during sorption of solvent, making the sample entirely rubbery, sudden changes in the area, thickness and sorption rate typically occur. Examination of the sorption of water and methanol by glassy poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) showed that the magnitudes and directions of these changes can be readily modified by creating anisotropic stresses within the glassy polymer by controlled deformation of the sample prior to solvent sorption. However, the transport mechanism and sorption kinetics were not significantly altered by differing levels of initial sample anisotropy.
