Influence of Gas Molecules Size on their Diffusion in Cross-Linked Polyethylene

It is shown, that the diffusivity reduction at polymer cross-linked is due to drift of gas-diffusant molecules on cross-wise links. A gas molecule diameter raising result to change of effective structural characteristics of cross-linked polymer, that more intensifies this effect.
