    Notes: A study has been carried out of the changes in the x-ray diffraction patterns which occur when oriented fibers or tapes of poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (3GT) and poly-(tetramethylene terephthalate) (4GT) are subjected to mechanical tensile stress. Although the polymers show very different behavior in detail, in both cases comparatively large reversible lattice strains are observed (∼ several %). The diffraction pattern of 3GT changes monotonically with increasing macroscopic strain, suggesting that the lattice responds immediately to the applied stress, and deforms as though it were a coiled spring. In 4GT, on the other hand, there is no detectable change in the x-ray diffraction pattern at low macroscopic strains, i.e., low values of the applied stress. At higher stresses, changes in the pattern occur which suggest a definite change in the crystal structure. Finally at the highest values of applied stress, the lattice deformations cease to increase. A preliminary discussion is presented of the relationship of these x-ray diffraction results to the mechanical stress-strain behavior.

    Notes: Effects of neutralization on butadiene-methacrylic acid copolymers have been studied. In Hycar CTB with 2% acid groups, small-angle x-ray scattering gives evidence of some cation clustering and leads to a value of the mean radius of 5.6 Å for the clusters and a value of the distance between them of 70 Å. When the concentration of salt is increased there is no appreciable change in the distance between clusters or in their size, but their number increases. The structure of clusters has been studied by electron paramagnetic resonance in copolymers neutralized with copper salts. The appearance of a line as in the monohydrated acetate salt permits one to define the structure of clusters consisting of two Cu2+ and four RCOO- ions with two H2O or RCOOH molecules. When the temperature is increased, the signal corresponding to Cu2+-Cu2+ pairs disappears. In high molecular weight butadiene methacrylic acid copolymers with 9% acid groups, we have found the ion pair clusters gathered into larger clusters. In dynamic mechanical properties, a relaxation peak appears at 340°K. We interpret this as due to breaking and possible re-forming of dipolar associations.

    Notes: The copolymerization of vinylhydroquinone (VHQ) and vinyl monomers, e.g., methyl methacrylate (MMA), 4-vinyl-pyridine (4VP), acrylamide (AA), and vinyl acetate (VAc), by tri-n-butylborane (TBB) was investigated in cyclohexanone at 30°C under nitrogen. VHQ is assumed to copolymerize with MMA, 4VP, and AA by vinyl polymerization. The following monomer reactivity ratios were obtained (VHQ = M2): for MMA/VHQ/TBB, r1 = 0.62, r2 = 0.17; for 4VP/VHQ/TBB, r1 = 0.57, r2 = 0.05; for AA/VHQ/TBB, r1 = 0.35, r2 = 0.08. The Q and e values of VHQ were estimated on the basis of these reactivity ratios as Q = 1.4 and e = -;1.1, which are similar to those of styrene. This suggests that VHQ behaves like styrene rather than as an inhibitor in the TBB-initiated copolymerization. No homopolymerization was observed either under nitrogen or in the presence of oxygen. The reaction mechanism is discussed.

    Notes: An overall mechanistic scheme for the suspension polymerization of vinyl chloride is presented. The process can be resolved into five discrete stages, each of which presents a unique environment for the interaction of the systems parameters. It is shown that the surface area of the polymer formed during the reaction is not a major factor in autoacceleration and that the increase of kinetic chain length with conversion is due to a radical dilution effect. The latter is a direct result of the difference in rates between polymerization and radical formation, the former being greater. The increase of the initial polymerization rate and the reduction of autoacceleration brought about by chain transfer agents can be explained by the lower diffusion rate and greater bulkiness of the chain transfer agent radical relative to that of the monomer radical. The chaintransfer agent CBr4 is preferentially absorbed by PVC from solution in vinyl chloride. With lauryl peroxide as initiator it is shown that the “hot spot” is the result of a build-up of initiator in the monomer caused by its exclusion from the polymer phase. Vinyl chloride was found to dissolve 0.03% PVC at ambient temperature and to have no effect on the decomposition rate of lauryl peroxide.

    Notes: Because of the allylic nature of propylene, the vinyl chloride-propylene system exhibits polymerization behavior markedly different from that of vinyl chloride, even at relatively low propylene concentrations. Propylene acts as a degradative chain-transfer agent, and as a result, both the polymerization rate and the molecular weight of the resultant copolymers are lower than those of the homopolymer, decreasing with increasing propylene content. Even at propylene concentrations as low as 10% the rate of polymerization is proportional to the initiation rate, indicating kinetic control by the propylene. The reactivity ratios of these monomers given by Cain were verified. The reciprocal intrinsic viscosity of the copolymer was found to be linearly related to the monomer feed composition.

    Notes: Plasma-polymerized oils, films and powders obtained from ethylene, acetylene, butadiene, and benzene were characterized by flash pyrolysis and gas chromatography (P/GC). None of the pyrograms resembled those of commercial polyethylene, polybutadiene, or polystyrene. Each of the plasma-polymer pyrograms did exhibit essentially the same fragments up to C8, albeit in a different distribution, indicating that all samples are structurally similar. Analysis of the P/GC data shows these materials to contain a random arrangement of side chains, crosslinks, double bonds, and aromatic structures. Changes in the fragment distribution were obvious when the sample was a powder, solid film, or oily film produced from the same monomer. It was shown that powder products generally have a higher concentration of branches and/or crosslinks than the oil or film products. There are also differences in the pyrograms of products of the same form derived from dissimilar monomers. The results obtained from P/GC generally support those derived from infrared or NMR measurements performed earlier.

    Notes: The process of radiation-induced crosslinking of cellulose is found to be highly influenced by radiation dosage and dose as well as by the solvents used and their concentration. The best crease resistance has been obtained in cases when cellulose is crosslinked with acrolein in the vapor phase. Moreover, the process is entirely radiation-induced and practically no homopolymer is formed. Chemical analysis and investigations of infrared spectra indicate that crosslinking proceeds on vinyl as well as on aldehyde groups of acrolein.

    Notes: The conformational properties of optically active macromolecules are considered. A statistical zigzag model is used for the calculation of averaged physical properties. The macromolecule is considered to consist of segments of two different types with a statistical distribution of lengths. The expressions for the mean square of the end-to-end vector h2 and the dipole moment μ2 and also of the mean optical anisotropy ΔA and the anisotropy of the optical rotation tensor ΔG were obtained in the cases of freely jointed and freely rotating segments. The equations obtained were applied to the problem of the helix-coil transition. In the case of poly-α-olefins the values of h2, μ2, and ΔA, are larger than corresponding values for typical optically inactive macromolecules. The anisotropies ΔA and ΔG of two poly-α-olefins of similar structures were calculated. The polarizability theory of optical activity was used for the calculations of ΔG. The values obtained for ΔA are similar, but the values of ΔG differ markedly. The possibility of obtaining valuable information about the structure of optically active macromolecules in solution by a study of anisotropy of the optical rotation tensor is considered.

    Notes: The normal coordinate analyses of tetramethylthiuram mono-, di-, and tetrasulfides have been carried out by utilizing vibrational energies obtained from infrared and Raman spectroscopic data reported here. The C=S vibration is demonstrated to be highly coupled and to contribute to frequencies in the 850-1000 cm-1 region, but can be identified based on the strong Raman intensity. The results are useful in interpreting the spectra of these complex vulcanizing agents.

    Notes: Earlier work showed that heating causes poly(diethylsiloxane) to undergo a first-order transition from a semicrystalline solid to a more mobile viscous - crystalline material. The latter is composed of two phases and analogies between polymer and liquid crystal morphology and behavior have been made. The viscous - crystalline phase in PDES appears to be unique since the literature is devoid of other documented examples. In this study, spin - lattice and spin - spin relaxation times were measured over a wide temperature range. They show a glass transition at 138°K, a crystal - crystal transition at 206°K, and a transition around 250°K which results from translational motion of the polymer chains with respect to each other. This motion is observed in the amorphous phase at a lower temperature than in the crystalline phase. Translational motion in the crystalline phase is observed on melting of the crystallites. The spin - spin data permitted monitoring of the molecular motions in each phase and the data suggest that these phases exert some influence on the molecular motions of each other. The viscous - crystalline phase in PDES may represent a unique model for studying and understanding “precrystalline” behavior and structure in amorphous solids.
