Swelling Behavior

Swelling Behavior is a polymer network-level phenomenon characterized by the reversible volumetric expansion of a cross-linked polymeric material due to the absorption of a solvent, distinguished from other material responses by its dependence on network elasticity, thermodynamic compatibility, and environmental conditions such as temperature and pH.
