Effect of polymer concentration on change in free volume and partitioning

Total phase composition (%, w/w)		Phase volume ratio, V_{r (−)}	Change in free volume, ∆V_f (10⁻³ ml/g)	K_CPC	K_TP	Purity of CPC (−)	Yield of CPC (%)
Polymer	Salt	Phase volume ratio, V_{r (−)}	Change in free volume, ∆V_f (10⁻³ ml/g)	K_CPC	K_TP	Purity of CPC (−)	Yield of CPC (%)
9	15	0.45	54.29	37.22	3.29	3.54 ± 0.2^a	78.6 ± 0.7^a
12	15	0.95	70.42	48.86	1.45	3.78 ± 0.5^b	74.0 ± 0.2^b
15	15	1.22	89.80	41.80	1.90	2.71 ± 0.4^c	74.9 ± 0.5 ^b
