Computer Simulation of Small Molecules Permeation Through Polymer Membranes

摘要

Numerical techniques have made significant progress over the years in predicting various plastic properties. The permeation of small molecules through the organic polymer membranes is one topic that has not been successfully modeled. Using simple approximations between mass transfer type equations and heat transfer equations similarities can be made and comparisons drawn. This paper will attempt to show the comparison between permeation predicted based on numerical simulation techniques per heat transfer and the technique of actually measuring the small molecules permeated through. Correlation will be determined.
