Abstract

The occupied and accessible volumes have been calculated for 32 polyimides of various structures. The calculation data have been compared with the experimentally measured transport parameters for one polymer-various gases and one gas-various polymers systems. The correlation coefficients have been estimated as 90–98%. The transport parameters plotted as a function of the Kuhn segment are described by curves with maxima. The best transport characteristics are exhibited by polymers with Kuhn segment lengths of 60–80 Å.
