Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   A volumetric method was used in measurement of the solubility. The gas pressure decay with time was followed by means of a gauge. Corrections for the equation of state of CO2 were made according to Ref. 1.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   CO2: purity 99.9 %. CA: Eastman Kodak, Trademark Edukit; content of acetyl groups 39.8 %, density 1.36 g/cm3.

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: Standard error of estimate of CO2 concentration: from 5.5% at 273 K to 14% at 343 K.
