    Notes: The half molecules of 186 DNA have been isolated by the Hg(II)-Cs2SO4 density gradient centrifugal ion technique. The buoyant densities of the two halves in CsCI at 25°C. are 1.713 and 1.709 g./cm.3, corresponding to GC contents of 54% and 50%, respectively. Similarly, 5-bromouracil labeled λ DNA halves were separated. The isolation of the four DNA halves made it possible to test for homology in base sequences between the cohesive ends of λ and those of 186. There was no indication of any significant homology in base sequences between the cohesive ends of the two DNA's, as indicated by the absence of a band with intermediate buoyant density in CsCI when either half of 186 DNA was annealed with either half of 5-bromouracil labeled λ DNA and then centrifuged. The lack of cohesion between the two DNA's made it possible to demonstrate unequivocally the formation of interlocked rings (catenanes) between the two DNA's. The existence of a dimeric catenane is evidenced by the formation of a species of intermediate buoyant density when 5-bromouracil labeled λ DNA is cyclized in the presence of cyclic 186 DNA of a relatively high concentration. The molecular weight of one DNA relative to the other can be calculated from the position of the dimeric catenane in a density gradient by using the method of Baldwin. The result was in complete agreement with our previous measurements from the sedimentation coefficients and by electron microscopy. The probability of dimeric catenane formation when one DNA is cyclized in the presence of another DNA is discussed. The experimental results agree with the theoretical expectation.

    Notes: The viscosities of moderately concentrated solutions of low-density polyethylenes in ethane, propane, and ethylene have been measured at low shear rate in the temperature range of 150-250°C and in the pressure range of about 15000-30000 psi. Within the precision of the measurements, the relative viscosity is independent of pressure over the range investigated but increases as the solvent is changed from propane through ethane to ethylene. The activation energy for the relative viscosity in ethane varies from about 0.5 to 2.5 kcal/mole as the concentration changes from 5 to 15 g/dl. Effects of polymer concentration and molecular weight on solution viscosity in ethane at 150°C have been determined, and all of the data can be represented by a single straight-line plot of the logarithm of relative viscosity versus the intrinsic viscosity (in p-xylene at 105°C) times concentration. This simple relation is valid over wide ranges of polymer concentration and molecular weight and over more than two orders of magnitude of relative viscosity. The solution viscosities of the polyethylenes in the three supercritical fluid solvents used appear surprisingly low at first sight. This behavior is partly a result of the low solvent viscosities but also might mean that the polymer has an abnormally low segmental friction factor compared to that in solutions under more familiar conditions.

    Notes: Foam separation of microorganisms has been investigated with varying success by many workers, usually at high rates of gas flow. Microflotation was developed to overcome some of the disadvantages inherent in these high gas-flow-rate processes and is introduced in this paper as a new technique for the foam separation of microorganisms at low gas-flow rates. With microflotation, a stable surface phase is produced by adding an insoluble collector such as a long-chain fatty acid or amine. The formation of an insoluble surface phase eliminates the need for high foaming. Low rates of gas flow are used resulting in a more efficient separation and a less voluminous and drier surface phase upon which to collect the microorganisms. The efficiency of this technique is also improved by using flotation aids such as frothers and flocculents. Frothers are used to improve the collector properties of the surfactant and to refine further the small bubbles produced by a very fine sparger. Small concentrations of flocculents, such as alum, are used to partially agglomerate the organisms and provide sites for adsorption of collector. The work described in this paper is preliminary in nature, designed to illustrate that a low flow-rate process may be used to separate microorganisms and to stimulate further research. The applications discussed are removal of the bacterium, Escherichia coli, and alum, and two species of algae, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Chlorella ellipsoidea, using stearylamine without alum. The frother used was ethanol.

    Notes: A packed bed model has been adopted to develop a general correlation applicable to the flow of Newtonian fluids through all types of woven metal screens. Both of the main theoretical approaches to studying pressure drop in packed systems have been used by visualizing the screen as a collection of submerged objects with surface area to unit volume ratio a for laminar flow, and as a bundle of tubes of diameter D for turbulent flow. In the usual manner viscous and inertial energy losses are added to give an expression for the total pressure loss. Rearrangement of the general equation to the form of a friction factor yields a unique definition of the Reynolds number for screens NRe = ρu/μa2D. Procedures are described for collection of pressure drop-velocity data for the flow of nitrogen and helium through plain square, full twill, fourdrinier, plain dutch, and twilled dutch weaves. The data are used to derive a viscous resistance coefficient α = 8.61 and an inertial resistance coefficient β = 0.52. The validity of the correlation equation is tested by using additional data from the literature. The correlation successfully predicts pressure drop for a Reynolds number range of 0.1 to 1,000, void fractions from 0.35 to 0.76, screen pore diameters from 5 to 550 μ, mesh sizes from 30 to 2,400 wires/in., and surface area to unit volume ratios from 1,200 to 29,000 ft.-1.

    Notes: Capillary phenomena arising from vapor phase condensation in porous media are discussed in the light of an exact interface curvature theory and a self-consistent thermodynamic theory. The system studied consists of liquid condensed in the form of pendular rings at the contact points between identical spherical particles. The geometrical parameters - the curvature, the confined volume, and the surface area of the liquid-vapor interface - must be expressed in terms of incomplete elliptic integrals. In addition several corrections are introduced for the classical Kelvin relation for lowering of vapor pressure. One of these is based on the density dependence of the isothermal thermodynamic susceptibility. Since the susceptibility vanishes at large negative pressures, an upper limit to the curvature is established. The balance equation for the extensive free energy is considered from the point of view of hydrostatic principles.

    Notes: This paper presents theoretical studies of a method of using a radioactive tracer technique to evaluate the kinetic data of heterogeneous catalytic reactions that are coupled with a Knudsen type of pore diffusion. By superimposing a transient radioactive tracer response over the steady state concentration profile in the catalyst particle, one can establish an implicit relation between the total amount of radioactive components diffused out of the particle and the kinetic data of the reaction system. This relation can then be used to evaluate kinetic data of the reaction system. A detailed study of general monomolecular complex systems is given. Use of the method for nonlinear systems is also included.

    Notes: When hexaphenylcyclotrisilazane was heated above 450°C. at atmospheric pressure, it formed an infusible polymer of exceptional thermal and chemical stability. The polymerization, which was accompanied by elimination of benzene, is represented approximately by the equation: \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$\eta [({\rm C}_6 {\rm H}_5)_2 {\rm SiNH}]_3\,\, \to \,\,({\rm C}_6 {\rm H}_5 {\rm SiN})_{3n} + 3n{\rm C}_6 {\rm H}_6$\end{document} The infusible polymer was a foamed, vitreous, pale yellow solid with a high degree of stability to heat, acids, alkali, and organic solvents. A similar reaction occured with a resein that was obtained as a by-product in the preparation of hexaphenylcyclotrisilazane and with a mixture of silylamines that was obtained from the reaction of methylphenyldichlorosilane with ammonia. Coatings on aluminum and steel prepared by heating the silylamine polymers had good thermal stability and adhesion. Inclusion of a polymeric dimethylsilyl derivative of ethylenediamine improved the flexibility of the coatings.

    Notes: Porous laminates prepared by incorporating a volatile solvent into an epoxy resin system used to impregnate a fabric filler satisfactorily alleviated the problems caused by perspiration in upper extremity prostheses, but did not have sufficient strength for use in artificial legs. A new technique is described which results in a 100% increase in both porosity and strength of porous epoxy laminates. The method consists of impregnation of the fabric with resin and solvent and evaporation of the solvent prior to laying up the laminate. The improvement in properties is ascribed to better control and homogeneity of impregnation.

    Description / Table of Contents: Eine heterodisperse Probe von Polymethylmethacrylat sowie mehrere Fraktionen, die von dieser Probe erhalten wurden, wurden im Vakuum bei 300-500°C pyrolysiert. Die Proben wurden als dünne Filme auf beiden Seiten eines 260 cm langen Banddrahtes aufgebracht, der auf Grund seines Ohmschen Widerstandes erhitzt wurde (zuerst mit einem besonders starken Strom, um rasch eine hohe Temperatur zu erreichen). Die ursprüngliche Probe sowie auch der Pyrolysenrückstand wurden durch Gelpermeationschromatographie analysiert, um die Änderungen des Molekulargewichtes während der Pyrolyse zu bestimmen. Man kann auf Grund früherer kinetischer Studien erwarten, daß in dem obigen Temperaturbereich eine Änderung im Mechanismus stattfindet. Aus diesem Grunde wurde vorausgesagt, daß das Molekulargewicht einer unfraktionierten Probe während des Abbaues bei 300°C sich nicht verändert, bei 500°C aber abnimmt. Andererseits ist zu erwarten, daß das Molekulargewicht von fraktionierten Proben bei 300°C abnimmt und bei 500°C unverändert bleibt. Die Resultate stimmen mit der Vorhersage im großen und ganzen überein, aber bei 500°C verhalten sich nur die Fraktionen mit niedrigen Molekulargewichten wie erwartet. Die Arbeit bestätigt also den Mechanismus und die Voraussagen, die auf kinetische Studien begründet waren; hochmolekulare Proben bei hohen Temperaturen, bei denen eine gewisse Einschränkung bezüglich des Mechanismus notwendig ist, müssen jedoch hierbei ausgenommen werden.
    Notes: A heterodisperse sample of poly(methylmethacrylate), and several fractions derived from this sample, have been pyrolysed in vacuo at temperatures in the region of 300 and 500°C. The samples were deposited as thin films on both sides of a 260 cm ribbon filament, which was heated resistively, and also boosted to ensure a rapid initial rise in temperature. The initial samples, and the residues after pyrolysis, were analysed by Gel Permeation Chromatography to obtain the trends in molecular weight with conversion. From previous kinetic studies, a change in mechanism is expected over the above temperature range, and on this basis it was predicted that during degradation at 300°C the molecular weight of an unfractionated sample would remain invariant, but at 500°C the molecular weight of such a sample would decrease; on the other hand the molecular weight of fractionated samples is expected to decrease at 300°C and to remain invariant at 500°C. The results are in general agreement with these predictions except that at 500°C only low molecular weight fractions behave in the expected manner. This work therefore confirms the mechanisms postulated from kinetic studies, but in the case of high molecular weight samples at high temperature some qualification of the mechanism has been necessary.
