    Notes: A quality control scheme has been developed to achieve reproducible capillary GC characterization of crude oils and petroleum condensates. The method uses an internal standard to quantify the amount of non-eluted material in the crude oil sample. Correlation between the gas chromatographic results and actual distillation was 2 %. After repeated use, however, weekly analysis of the same standard crude oil did not give the correct composition. This was a result of discrimination, which worsened with time, as a result of leaks in the septum or the graphite ferrules. More reproducible results were obtained by performing frequent analyses of quality control samples to ensure that the gas chromatographic system was operating properly. The use of quality control charts was a convenient way of ensuring correct operation and identifying the need for corrective action on the gas chromatographic system.

    Notes: Recent experimental investigation of the terminal relaxation in high molecular weight polyisoprenes by dynamic mechanical measurements (C. A. Bero and C.M. Roland, Macromolecules, 29, 1562 (1996)) has found the terminal relaxation times to be more sensitive to changes in temperature for three-arm stars than for the linear polyisoprenes. Moreover, these measurements, carried out with significantly higher molecular weight samples than heretofore, show that the molecular weight dependence of the terminal relaxation times for three-arm star polyisoprenes is much weaker than the exponential dependence previously proposed (L. J. Fetters, et al., Macromolecules, 26, 647 (1993)). Tracer diffusion of labeled linear and three-arm star polyethylene-like diffusant molecules in a highly entangled linear polyethylene matrix exhibit temperature and molecular weight dependencies similar to those observed spectroscopically from bulk polymers. Both the temperature and molecular weight dependencies for the star-branched polymers are at variance with the predictions of the reptation model. It is shown here, however, that these observations can be reconciled through application of the coupling model of relaxation. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Annealing poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) at high temperature results in a crystalline phase stable to 10°C higher than the temperature previously regarded as the equilibrium melting point. Melting temperatures as high as 289°C can be attained, which is equivalent to the equilibrium melting point determined herein for PET. The high melting point and tendency to superheat suggest that the crystals possess a substantial extended chain structure, notwithstanding the magnitude of the infrared fold band.

    Notes: It is well known that crystallization can be induced in amorphous poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) by orientation below the isotropic crystallization temperature. The magnitude of the strain necessary for crystallization varies inversely with molecular weight because of relaxation. However, lower molecular weight PET might be expected to, crystallize at a lower extent of molecular orientation, since the crystallization rate also varies inversely with molecular weight. Chain conformations were measured during low temperature drawing of PET of various molecular weights. The molecular configuration associated with strain induced crystallization was found to be independent of chain length. The onset of orientational crystallization was associated with a particular conformation, and this critical trans/gauche ratio was equivalent for PETs of various molecular weights. The drawing behavior is thus in accord with theory concerning the transition of flexible chain polymes from isotropy to an ordered state. This result is congruent with previous studies suggesting the presence of extended chain crystallinity in amorphous PET after low temperature drawing.

    Notes: Thermal lithography on poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) is carried out by inducing crystallization through selective exposure of amorphous films to Infrared radiation. The obtained images can be smaller than the wavelength of the CO2 laser light. This circumvention of the diffraction limit is accomplished by taking advantage of the non-linear temperature dependence of the crystallization rate. The optical marking process is reversible through simple melting of the crystalline images. The complementary process, selective melting of an initially crystalline film, can also be accomplished. The use as a heat sink of a mask which forms the image pattern is demonstrated.

    Notes: It has been found that flow-induced coalescence occurs at a very rapid rate during the mixing of polymeric fluids. Furthermore, the rheological properties of the dispersed and continuous phases, as well as the nature of the flow field used in their blending, can greatly influence this coalescence. The significance of these findings is that in the development of a mixing scheme to obtain a desired morphology with minimum expenditure of time or energy, attention is usually focused only on the particle breakup aspects of the blending process. The competing coalescence can, however, be accelerated by the same conditions often employed to facilitate particle breakup (e.g., higher shear rates, reduced dispersed-phase viscosity).A better understanding of the mechanism for coalescence of viscoelastic fluids is clearly required. In this manner optimal blending of immiscible polymers can be achieved with respect to both the nature of the final material and the ease with which it is obtained.
