A theoretical analysis predicts that the response factors for both LS and RI detectors are linear functions with the composition of any specified polymer mixtures in the binary polymer mixtures. Two pairs of complicated binary mixtures were used to test the theory mentioned in the present paper, and the experimental results show an excellent accordance with the theory.展开更多

Results show that the porosity grows up with the increase of immersion duration and the salt content. During the immersion, the amount of large pores（60-200 μm） grow up gradually and porosity also grows up correspondingly. Even with different immersion duration, most pores＇ size distribute is beyond 7000 nm.展开更多
