Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
A McBain quartz spring microbalance and a volumetric apparatus were used for sorption measurements.
Source and Purity of Materials:
- PVTMS synthesized by $\ce{BuLi}$ initiated anionic polymerization had: $M_{\rm{w}}$ = 608,000, $M_{\rm{n}}$ = 416,000. All the gases were "chromatographically" pure.
Estimated Errors:
Mass concentration (m/v) (1): 10%.
Pressure: 20%.
Components:
- Hydrogen, $\ce{ H2 }$; [1333-74-0] NIST WebBook
- Helium, $\ce{ He }$; [7440-59-7] NIST WebBook
- Methane, $\ce{ CH4 }$; [74-82-8] NIST WebBook
- Nitrogen (Molecule), $\ce{ N2 }$; [7727-37-9] NIST WebBook
