Abstract
Aim To study method for calculating free energy of mixing of polymer system. Methods A new method for treating experimental data on concentration dependence of chemical potential is advanced. Various presented methods for calculating free energy of mixing through the Flory-Huggins equation are compared. Results Relations on concentration dependence of chemical potential are gained by various methods. Conclusion As compared with other known calculating procedures, the new method is shown to provide more precise estimates of free energy of mixing.
