Abstract
A model of polymer chain conformations is introduced which strongly modifies the Flory theory by accounting for the saturation of hydrogen bonds in hydrosoluble polymers. The theory leads to an unusual pressure-dependent phase behavior, including a critical pressure beyond which hydrosolubility is reduced.Keywords
