Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 8Water Vapour Adsorption on Organic and Inorganic Polymers(Springer Verlag, 2003) Balköse, Devrim; Özkan, Fehime; Ulutan, Sevgi; Ülkü, SemraWater vapour adsorption on polymers affects their processing behaviour and useful properties. Water vapour adsorption on organic polymers, silk, Nylon 6 fibres in undrawn and permanent set forms, polyester micro fibres, plasticised PVC films with 60 phr dioctylphthalate (OOP) and inorganic polymer sepiolite particles were investigated in this study. The materials were examined using the BET equation. The surface areas of silk, cast Nylon 6 and muss Nylon 6 were determined as 108, 46 and 23 m2 g-1, respectively. Sepiolite did not fit BET equation. Polyester and PVC adsorbed very small amounts of moisture.
