Demonstration of Solvent Differences by Visible Polymer Swelling.
Ross, Joseph H.
Journal of Chemical Education, v60 n2 p169-71 Feb 1983
Effect of the "polarity" of low-polarity solvents on the amount of swelling produced in a solid polymer (demonstrated in an organic chemistry lecture) is also suitable as a laboratory experiment. Students can be assigned to a small group of solvents from the list provided. Procedures and materials needed are included. (Author/JN)
