In this work, we obtained experimental cloud points for binary systems made of polybutadiene (PB) and a solvent (propane or diethyl ether). The present results partially correspond to a phase equilibrium engineering study in which we determined the single-phase boundary for Solvent + PB systems. The final aim is to hydrogenate PBs using supercritical or quasicritical fluids as reaction media.
