Hi. I am looking for the Hansen solubility parameters of aminated polysulfone (aPSU). I looked for these data in Google, unfortunately I couldn’t find it. I would be very grateful if you can help me to define these parameters value. I also was wondering which green solvent you propose for dissolving aPSU?
Thank you
Dear Majda,
You can use HSPiP to measure the solubility parameters of aminated polysulfone. Just wanted to know, is it a regular and linear polymer?
Another way to measure the solubility parameters are performing solubility experiments.
Dear Mood,
Thank you for your answer and suggestion. I already know about the HSPIP, however, I do not have the software and the knowledge to use it. For the aPSU, yes it is a linear polymer.
As for the solubility experiments, one of my objectives is to use green solvents and for this I wanted to use the Hansen parameter to select the best choice. As you know the green solvent is expensive - the less experiments the better.
In the literature, they suggested the use of DMSO, TEP as well as Butylprrolidin-2-one as good solvent. However, I just wanted a rough estimation of aPSU Hansen parameters to make sure.
Thanks
