Abstract

The correlation between the diffusion permeability of thermoplastic polyurethanes by kerosene and kerosene volatility is studied. The kinetic dependences of kerosene mass loss in a diffusion cell differ from the conventional dependences that confine the application of commonly accepted parameters in estimating the diffusion permeability of polymers and the natural loss prediction model. An approach to estimating the rate of natural kerosene loss under storage is proposed. The correlation between the natural loss rate at different kerosene storage temperatures and the kerosene vapor pressure at room temperature is established to simplify the method of estimating the diffusion permeability of thermoplastic polyurethane by kerosene.
