This estimate was derived using the solutions to the conservative plane sheet model for mass release, \( M \): \[ \frac{M(\tau)}{M_0} = \left\{ \begin{array}{cr} (1+\Psi) \left[1-\exp\left( \frac{\tau}{\alpha^2} \right) \mathop{\rm erfc} \left( \frac{\tau^{0.5}}{\Psi} \right) \right] & \tau \leq 0.05 \\ \frac{1}{1+1/\Psi}\left[1-\sum^\infty_{n=1} \frac{2\Psi(1+\Psi)}{1+\Psi+\Psi^2q_n^2}\exp\left(-\tau q_n^2\right)\right] & \tau > 0.05 \end{array} \right. \] where \( \tau= D t A^2 / V_p^2 \), \( A \) and \( V_p \) are the surface area and volume of the polymer matrix, respectively, \( D \) is an estimated distribution of the diffusion coefficient of the extractable within the swollen polymer matrix, and \( t \) is time. The quantity \( \Psi = V_s/V_p K \), where \( V_s \) is the solvent volume and \( K \) is the polymer-solvent partition coefficient for the extractable. \( q_n \) are the roots of \( \tan x + \Psi x = 0 \). \( M_0 \) is total quantity initially contained in the polymer. The amount of swelling and number of iterations \( N \) are used to adjust \( \tau \) and \( \Psi \). Based on the input provided, the calculation used the following values:
Extracted amount \( M \) = {{M}} {{units}}
Surface area \( A \) = {{area}} cm2
Duration \( t \) = {{time}} h
Iterations \( N \) = {{iterations}}
Temperature = {{T}} °C
Solvent = {{solventname}}
Solvent volume \( V_s \) = {{solventvol}} cm3
Polymer volume \( V_p \) = {{vol}} cm3 (based on polymer mass = {{mass}} g and density = {{density}} g/cm3)
Partition coefficient \( K \)= {{K}}
Swelling = {{swelling}} wt% (used to estimate \( D \))
The total quantity reported above is the median of the distribution of predicted amounts. Additional percentiles are provided here for informational purposes:
The predicted amount ({{M0}} {{units}}) is larger than the device mass ({{mass_units}} {{units}}), which may be due to uncertainty and conservatism in the prediction. In this case the device mass may be used as a conservative estimate of the total quantity of this extractable. Alternatively, you may have used mismatched units for device density or extracted amount.
