Transcript Chapter 01_Polymer Characterization Part2

There are many times in nature when a solvent
will pass spontaneously through a
semipermeable membrane, which is a
membrane permeable to solvent, but not solute.
The osmotic pressure, П, is the pressure that
must be applied to stop the influx of solvent.

Examples:
(a) Transport of fluids through living cell
membranes ,
(b) Basis of osmometry, determination of
molecular mass by measurement of osmotic
pressure.

Eventually the pressure difference between
the arms stops osmosis.

A solution of polystyrene in benzene contains
10 g/L. The equilibrium height of the column of
solution (density 0.88 g cm-3) in the osmometer
corrected for capillary rise is 11.6 cm at 25oC.
What is the molar mass of polystyrene,
assuming the solution is ideal.
The osmotic pressure of an aqueous solution
at 300 K is 120 kPa. Calculate the freezing
point of the solution.
9
Osmotic pressure is easily measured, and is quite large.
Osmometry can be applied for the determination of
molecular weights of large molecules (proteins, synthetic
polymers), which dissolve to produce less than ideal
solutions. The Van’t Hoff equation can be rewritten in the
virial form:
Π= [B] RT {1 + B [B] + ...}
where B is the empirically determined osmotic virial
coefficient
10
Consider poly (vinyl chloride) PVC, in cyclohexanone
at 298 K
Pressures are expressed in terms of heights of solution,
ρ=0.980 g cm-3 in balance with the osmotic pressure

Use Π = [B] RT {1 + B [B] + …} with [B] = c/M, where c
is the mass concentration and M is the molar mass. The
osmotic pressure is related to the hydrostatic pressure by
Π = ρgh, where g = 9.81 m s-2. Then:

Plot h/ c vs. c to find M, expecting a straight line with

The data give an intercept of 0.21 cm g-1 L, which is equal
to RT/ ρgM

After a hurricane, many trees fall over and
bend into a river. Also, a cow and a dog
fall into a flooded river. Which one
reaches the ocean first, cow or dog?
Moo!
Woof!

•Solvent flow carries molecules from left to right; big ones come
out first while small ones get caught in the pores.
•It is thought that particle volume controls the order of elution.
•But what about shape?

•The following plot of relative amount of
the large solute (blue) and of the
smaller solute (red) goes with the
animation.
•Larger solutes elute EARLIER, smaller
solutes LATER, from a size exclusion
column.
