The calculations presented in this paper are based on the Sanchez-Lacombe（SL）lattice fluid theory.The interaction energy parameter,g12/k,required in this approach was obtained by fitting the cloud points of polystyrene（PS）/methylcyclohexane（MCH）polymer solutions under pressure.The SL lattice fluid theory was used to calculate the spinodals,the binodals,and the Flory-Huggins（FH）interaction parameter of the solutions.The calculated results show that the SL lattice fluid theory can describe the dependences of thermodynamics of PS/MCH solutions on temperature and pressure very well.However,the calculated enthalpy and the excess volume changes indicate that the Clausius-Clapeyron equation cannot be suitable to describe pressure effect on PS/MCH solutions.Further analysis on the thermodynamics of this system under pressure shows that the role of entropy is more important than the excess volume in the present case.
