Treatment of PTMSP films with supercritical fluids (SCFs) leads to a decrease in the elastic modulus (Young’s modulus, <i>E</i>) and an increase in the relative elongation at break (ε), which is especially pronounced when treating films under high pressure (35 MPa). It was shown that the permeability coefficients of films treated at a pressure of 15 MPa either remain as that of the original untreated film (after treatment for 3 h) or decrease significantly (after prolonged treatment for 20 h). At the same time, treatment of the films at a higher pressure of 35 MPa leads to a noticeable increase in the permeability coefficients.
