It's not clear what energy you want: there would not ordinarily be a "binding
free energy" between a polymer and solvent. Or at least, you would have to
define this carefully.
One could estimate the transfer free energy between gas phase and water, which
would be something like a free energy of interaction between the two. But this
is not often an interesting value per se, since it generally can't be measured.
