    Notes: A method to obtain microscopic and macroscopic coatings with improved resistance to debonding is described. The procedure, based on polymer-metal complexes, involved the adsorption on inorganic substrates of a poly(vinyl alcohol)-copper II chelate that is also able to catalyze the polymerization of monomers or prepolymers with grafting. The molecular structure of the complex, its adsorption on inorganic surfaces, and the mechanism of the polymerization induced by the supported catalyst are summarized. Much emphasis is placed on application of this technology to the realization of encapsulated filler and pigment and of coatings with improved adherence and solvent resistance. In the field of composite materials, it is demonstrated from several examples that the encapsulation of the filler can be a way to block chemical interactions between filler and matrix, to promote filler dispersion, and to improve mechanical properties.

    Notes: Primary nucleation is in general heterogeneous in polymer crystallization. In unseeded polymers, the crystallization originates from a very small concentration (〈0.1 percent) of unknown submicroscopic heterogeneous nuclei. Only in three cases have the nucleation mechanisms been identified with precision. The first example is self-nucleation, which relates to the nucleation of a polymer melt by fragments of its own crystals previously present in the melt. Another example of heterogeneous nucleation is represented by epitaxial nucleation of polymers on inorganic and organic substrates recently established by Lotz and Wittmann. More recently, it was discovered that finely divided organic salts added to reactive polymers do not behave as inert heterogeneous substrates but rather dissolve and cut molten macromolecules producing ionic chain ends which precipitate into the melt and form organized aggregates which are the true nucleating species. It is clearly shown that mechanisms of physical and chemical origin are involved in heterogeneous primary nucleation of polymer crystallization.

    Notes: In this work, the exchange reaction taking place in molten blends of bisphenol-A polycarbonate and polybutylene terephthalate was studied. A direct transesterification mechanism catalyzed by titanium residues, present in commercial PBTP, was deduced. The transesterification reaction can be -stopped at various levels by additives capable of complexing the titanium catalyst.This work enhances the possibility of a new approach in macromolecular engineering by directly combining polycondensates in a processing machine such as an extruder.

    Notes: This study is devoted to the mechanical properties of impregnated asbestos-cements. We studied the influence of the degree of impregnation and of the nature of the resin on the modulus of elasticity and on the strength of the materials. The impregnation of asbestos-cement by polymeric resins produces composites of outstanding mechanical properties. The relative increase in flexural and tensile strength is much higher for mortar and concrete but the improvement produced by the polymer on asbestos-cement is especially significant if one takes into consideration the already high absolute strengths of the materials.

    Notes: This paper concerns the action of plasticizers and nucleating agents on the crystallization of bisphenol-A polycarbonate. The influence of plasticizers is to increase the rate of crystallization to a great extent using 10 percent of a plasticizer such as trimellitic acid, tridecyloctyl ester. The influence of nucleating substances on plasticized and undiluted polycarbonate is investigated. A large number of substances have been found capable of nucleating polycarbonate crystallization. The un-plasticized semi-crystalline polycarbonate is characterized by a much higher melting point (300°C) than the plasticized semi-crystalline systems (210-245°C). The stability of bisphenol-A polycarbonate in the presence of nucleating salts is also examined. We observe a substantial decrease in the molecular weight in the presence of a great number of nucleating substances. The modulus-temperature curves of two semi-crystalline polymers are reported in the last series of experiments.

    Notes: The changes in the molecular composition of purified commercial polystyrene following thermal degradation were analyzed by gel permeation, reverse phase liquid and gas chromatography. Three major low molecular weight compounds were identified: styrene monomer, a dimer, and a trimer. The composition, the molecular weight, and the structure of the two oligomers were determined by elementary analysis, mass spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, and infrared spectroscopy. A linear structure with an ethylene end group is proposed for the two oligomers. The appearance of these degradation compounds is explained on the basis of an intramolecular mechanism involving chain-end folding and transfer of a labile tertiary hydrogen.
