Excerpt from On the Permeability of Caoutchouc for Various Substances in Acetone Solutions
In 1866 Payen (2) worked with balloons of rubber,both vulcanized and unvulcanized,which he filled with water and weighed at stated intervals. He found that the water escaped through the unvulcanized rubber about six times as fast as it did through the vulcanized, the exact ratio being 23 to 4. He claimed to have found the rubber,when viewed through a microscope,full of fine holes or pores;and he insisted upon the porosity of the caoutchouc as the explanation of the phenomena.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an in-depth examination of the permeability of caoutchouc, a natural rubber, toward various substances. The author delves into the historical development of osmosis experiments, tracing the contributions of Payen, Lundis, and Zott among others. The book also explores the role of caoutchouc as a semipermeable membrane, highlighting its use in separating liquids and investigating osmotic pressures. The author presents a comprehensive analysis of the factors influencing the permeability of caoutchouc, focusing on the affinity between the rubber and the substances it comes into contact with. They propose a theoretical framework to explain the observed permeability, emphasizing the role of solubility in acetone and the presence of kerosene as a competing solvent. Detailed experimental results are presented, demonstrating the differential permeability of caoutchouc for a wide range of substances, including salts, acids, and organic compounds. The author discusses these results in the context of their solubility and affinity for caoutchouc, supporting their theoretical framework. This book offers valuable insights into the fundamental properties of caoutchouc and its interactions with different substances. By exploring the permeability of caoutchouc, the author contributes to our understanding of membrane science and the behavior of semipermeable membranes, with potential implications for applications in fields such as filtration, purification, and drug delivery. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
