Positron annihilation study of hyper-crosslinked sorbents

Description

Cross-linked glassy polystyrene (PS) sorbents with different degree of linking (24-150%) were studied using positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy. Unusual effect of PS swelling due to polymer cross-linking was investigated. Annihilation lifetimes longer than 50 ns, one of the longest among those known for polymer materials, were found. These results and some additional data enabled obtaining information on the parameters of elementary free volumes responsible for the properties of the sorbents
