Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Apparatus and procedure of sorption measurement was similar to one described in ref. (1).

Source and Purity of Materials:
   Films of the polymer prepared from BPDA and ODA in p-chlorphenol were cast from the same solvent, dried (373 K, 3 h.), immersed in ethanol, dried once more at 443 K for 20 h. (Sample 1). Sample 2 was prepared by annealing it at 543 K, 3 h. Commercial Upilex-R (Ube Industries) had Tg=558K, ρ = 1.402 g/cc. Sample 1 had the same Tg.

Estimated Errors:
