Abstract: | A series of random copolymers of methylmethacrylate and methacryloxypropyltris (trimethylsiloxy) silane were synthesized by free radical polymerization under ultraviolet light. The permeabilities of these copolymers to carbon dioxide, oxygen, and nitrogen were determined and correlated with the packing densities of the polymers. Correlation between the permeability and permselectivity of these copolymers is also addressed. |
