Polymer mass fraction
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-009177
The mass of polymer divided by the total mass of the dispersed phase, for example a particle or droplet that also holds monomer or solvent. It is a dimensionless number between 0 and 1. It differs from polymer content, where the polymer mass is divided by the mass of the entire dispersion, continuous phase included.
