Desorption kinetics of ethene, propene, and butadiene from films exhibiting axially oriented nanoporous-cryst. δ phases of syndiotactic polystyrene (s-PS) have been followed by gravimetric and IR linear dichroism measurements. The reported data can be rationalized by assuming that, after the initial desorption mainly involving mols. absorbed in the amorphous phase, most gaseous mols. are included as guest in the nanoporous-cryst. phase. This allows establishing a simple method to evaluate guest partition between nanoporous-cryst. and amorphous polymeric phases, which possibly can be applied for most volatile guest mols. The described method also allows establishing the presence of one guest mol. (ethene, propene, or butadiene) per cavity of the nanoporous δ form
