Plasticization

Plasticization is a physicochemical phenomenon in polymer science wherein the penetration of small molecules, such as gases or solvents, into a polymer matrix increases chain mobility and reduces glass transition temperature, thereby diminishing the material's mechanical integrity and selectivity in gas separation applications.
