摘要: A lattice fluid model, Sanchez-Lacombe equation, is used to predict the phase behavior for
a styrene/CO2/polystyrene ternary system. The binary parameters involved in the equation
were optimized using experimental data. Phase diagrams and the distribution coefficients of
styrene between polymer phase and fluid phase are obtained over a wide range of pressure,
temperature and composition. The analysis of ternary phase diagrams indicates that this
system at relatively high pressure or low temperature may display two-phase equilibrium,
and at low pressures or high temperatures three-phase equilibrium may appear. The
distribution coefficients of styrene between the fluid phase and the polymer phase increase
asymptotically to unity when the concentration of styrene increases. The results provide
thermodynamic knowledge for further exploitation of supercritical carbon dioxide assisted
devolatilization and impregnation.
