Question
This process names a form of blistering that can cause epoxy resins to delaminate. Loeb and Sourirajan developed a type of power named for this process, which is maintained in one technique by recovering the draw solution to keep a steady TDS level. Strongly dissociating compounds have a high molarity named for this process, which also names industrial (*) "forward" and "pressure-retarded" techniques. This process' pressure is proportional to temperature, concentration and the van't Hoff factor. Hypertonic solutions naturally undergo this process, unlike in desalination plants where a "reverse" form is forcibly carried out. For 10 points, name this process in which water diffuses across a semipermeable membrane. ■END■
ANSWER: osmosis [accept reverse osmosis; accept forward osmosis; accept pressure-retarded osmosis; accept osmotic blistering; prompt on osmolarity; prompt on diffusion until "diffuses" is read]
