TWO EMPIRICAL CORRESPONDING STATES RELATIONSHIPS FOR THE RATIO OF THE HEAT CAPACITIES OF POLYMERS

Abstract

Two empirical corresponding state relationships between the ratio of the heat capacities Cp/Cv and the reduced temperature parameters T/Tg and T/Tm have been found. These relationships are discussed in terms of the corresponding states behavior. These relationships are significant and useful in that theratio Cp/Cv is a fundamental constant for a polymer and that a knowledge of the value of this ratio is indispensable for converting adiabatic data into the corresponding isothermal value.
