    Notes: Abstract Ball-milling has been used to prepare performing CO tolerant polymer electrolyte fuel cell anode catalysts that contain Pt and Ru. The catalyst precursors are obtained by milling together Pt, Ru and a dispersing agent in the atomic ratio 0.5, 0.5 and 4.0. This precursor is not easily recovered after milling because it sticks to the walls of the vial and on the grinding balls. However, the precursor is recovered as a powder when a process control agent (PCA) is added during the milling step. Various PCAs have been used. The PCA should not interfere with the electrocatalytic activity of the catalysts obtained by leaching the precursor. The best preparation of catalyst precursors are obtained by milling: (i) Pt, Ru and Al (dispersing agent) in the atomic ratio 0.5, 0.5, 4.0 + 10 wt% NaF (PCA) or (ii) Pt , Ru and MgH2 in the 0.5, 0.5, 4.0 atomic or molecular ratio. In this case, MgH2 plays at the same time the role of a dispersing agent and that of a PCA. The catalysts are obtained by leaching Al and NaF in (i) or MgH2 in (ii). The CO tolerance of these catalysts is equivalent to that of Pt0.5Ru0.5 Black from Johnson Matthey. The ball-milled catalysts have a surface area comprised between 30 and 44 m2 g−1. As-prepared catalysts are mainly made of metallic Pt and metallic plus oxidized Ru. After fuel cell tests, Pt is completely metallic while the oxidized Ru content decreases but does not disappear. These catalysts are composed of particles with crystallites of two different sizes: in (i) nanocrystallites (∼4 nm) that contain essentially Pt alloyed with Al and perhaps some Ru, and larger (≥∼30 nm) crystallites that contain essentially Ru; in (ii) Pt nanocrystalline particles that may contain some Ru and larger particles that contain essentially either Ru or Pt.

    Notes: Abstract High energy ball milling, an industrially amenable technique, has been used to produce CO tolerant unsupported Pt–Ru based catalysts for the oxidation of hydrogen in polymer electrolyte fuel cells. Nanocrystalline Pt0.5–Ru0.5 alloys are easily obtained by ball-milling but their performances as anode catalysts are poor because nanocrystals composing the material aggregate during milling into larger particles. The result is a low specific area material. Improved specific areas were obtained by milling together Pt, Ru and a metal leacheable after the milling step. The best results were obtained by milling Pt, Ru, and Al in a 1:1:8 atomic ratio. After leaching Al, this catalyst (Pt0.5–Ru0.5 (Al4)) displays a specific area of 38 m2g−1. Pt0.5–Ru0.5 (Al4) is a composite catalyst. It consists of two components: (i) small crystallites (∼4 nm) of a Pt–Al solid solution (1–3 Al wt%) of low Ru content, and (ii) larger Ru crystallites. It shows hydrogen oxidation performance and CO tolerance equivalent to those of Pt0.5–Ru0.5 Black from Johnson Matthey, the commercial catalyst which was found to be the most CO tolerant one in this study.

    Description / Table of Contents: Measurements effect of elastic waves in steel- and rock rods using the magneto-elasticStress waves in steel and iron ore rods produced by a mechanical impact can be measured by a sensor using the magneto-elastic effect. A detection of the changing magnetic flux is made. The function describing the propagation of longitudinal waves in rods is known as the stress wave equation. The agreement with theory is verified by examinations of steel rods using strain gauges. Afterwards the signals of three iron ores (magnetite, hematite, siderite) are recorded. Induced voltage is measured by the magneto-elastic sensor in the case of magnetite and hematite, however it is not possible to detect any signal for siderite. This means that the change of magnetic flux depends on the kind of bulk magnetic appearance, not on content of iron.Using the magneto-elastic sensor the magneto-elastic effect offers the possibility to detect tree of contact mechanical waves produced by a mechanical impact in ferro- or ferrimagnetic solids.
    Notes: An Stahl- und Eisenerzstäben werden die durch einen Stoß ausgelösten elastischen Dehnwellen mit Hilfe eines Sensors gemessen, der den magnetoelastischen Effekt ausnutzt. Detektiert wird dabei die Änderung des magnetischern Flusses. Die theoretische Beschreibung der Ausbreitung elastischer Längswellen in Stäben erfolgt mit Hilfe der eindimensionalen Dehnwellengleichung. Die Übereinstimmung mit der Theorie wird exemplarisch durch Untersuchungen an Stahlstäben mittels Dehnungsmeßstreifen verifiziert. Danach werden die Signale von drei Eisenerzstäben (Magnetit, Hämatit, Siderit) aufgenommen. Bei den Gesteinen Magnetit und Hämatit lassen sich mit dem magnetoelastischen Aufnehmer Induktionsspannungen messen, während beim Siderit keine Signale aufgezeichnet werden konnten. Das bedeutet, daß für die Änderung des magnetischen Flusses nicht der Eisengehalt, sondern die Art der äußeren magnetischen Erscheinungsform der Proben entscheidend ist.Der magnetoelastische Effekt bietet somit die Möglichkeit die durch eine Stoßbelastung in ferro- bzw. ferrimagnetischen Materialien ausgelösten mechanischen Wellen berührungslos mit Hilfe eines magnetoelastischen Sensors zu erfassen.

    Notes: The dependence on chain length of two characteristic properties of amylose, i.e., retrogradation and complex formation with iodine, have been studied by using enzymatically synthesized, homodisperse amyloses. The association rates of amyloses in water containing 5% dimethyl sulfoxide have a sharp maximum at a degree of polymerization P̄n of 80; shorter and longer molecules are much more soluble. The iodine complexes of amylose exhibit a strong Cotton effect in the range of the long-wave absorption maximum (position depending on chain length) and two weaker Cotton effects at 480 and 350 nm. The long-wave Cotton effect is most intense at about P̄n 50 and decreases rapidly for shorter and longer chains. This behavior is unexpected and is not in accordance with the further increase of λmax and λmax. The experiments can best be interpreted by assuming well ordered, stiff chains in the low molecular weight range (P̄n 50-80). For longer chains, the findings are discussed in the light of current concepts of amylose conformation in aqueous solution, namely the model of the broken helical chain (alternating stiff helical segments and unordered regions) and the model of a flexible coil without a significant helical content. However, according to the results given in this paper, a wormlike helical chain seems to be the most adequate model for amylose conformation in neutral solution.

    Notes: Reactions on the reactive groups of macromolecular substances (e.g., cellulose) have long been known, even since before the structures of macromolecules were understood. H. Staudinger carried out numerous reactions with macromolecules, maintaining the degree of polymerization constant, in order to substantiate the macromolecular structure of the substances investigated (polymeric-analogous reactions). During the last fifteen years reactions with macromolecules have been investigated because it was desirable to compare the chemical diversity of low molecular weight compounds with the corresponding chemical diversity of macromolecular compounds. These endeavors bring forth materials which supplement the numerous macromolecular substances which are produced and used as materials for plastics, and therefore these materials should have as low reactivity and high stability as possible. Objectives are given for the preparation of macromolecules with a large variety of groups. From these objectives it is evident that, as in low molecular weight chemistry, macromolecular substances which possess functional groups of high reactivity are suitable as starting materials. Some of these which have been known for a long time but have been investigated only in recent years are polyaldehydes (polyacroleins and polymethylacroleins), polyacyl halides such as polyacryl chlorides and polyvinylsulfonyl chlorides and fluorides, and, most recently, polymeric organometallic compounds such as poly-p-lithiumstyrene. The reactions with these macromolecules are described and the properties of the resulting new polymeric substances are given.

    Description / Table of Contents: From a series of enzymatically synthesized amyloses with a very narrow molecular weight distribution (Pw/Pn = 1.001-1.002) and degrees of polymerization (Pn) between 25 and 480 the iodine complexes were prepared. The absorption spectra as well as the ORD- and CD-curves of these complexes were recorded. COTTON effects were observed at 365, 485 and in the range of 500-600 mμ. The wavelength of the absorption maximum (λmax) of greatest wavelength and of the positive CD-maximum in the region of 500-600 mμ may be described as functions of Pn by the equation : \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$\frac{1}{{\lambda _{\max } }} = \frac{1}{{\rm A}} + \frac{{\rm B}}{{\rm A}} \cdot \frac{1}{{{\rm P}_{\rm n} }} $$\end{document} Furthermore, the extinctions, the base molar rotations and dichroic absorptions have been evaluated as a function of Pn. The base molar rotations and the CD-absorptions exhibited a maximum between Pn 70 to 100 and decreased again at higher Pn. ORD and CD increased on standing of the solutions, whereas the locations of the absorption maxima as well as of the COTTON affects remained unchanged. Possible reasons for this behaviour are discussed.
    Notes: Von einer Reihe enzymatisch synthetisierter Amylosen mit sehr enger Molekulargewichtsverteilung (Pw/Pn = 1,00 bis 1,002) und Polymerisationsgraden (Pn) zwischen 25 und 480 wurden die Jodkomplexe hergestellt. Die Absorptionsspektren sowie die ORD-und CD-Kurven dieser Jodkomplexe wurden aufgenommen. Es treten COTTON-Effeket auf bei 365, 485 und im Bereich von 500-600 mμ. Die Wellenlänge des langwelligen Absorptionsmaximums (λmax) sowie des positiven CD-Maximums als Funktion von Pn lassen sich durch folgende Gleichung beschreiben: \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ \frac{1}{{\lambda _{\max } }} = \frac{1}{{\rm A}} + \frac{{\rm B}}{{\rm A}} \cdot \frac{1}{{{\rm P}_{\rm n} }} $$\end{document} Ferner wurden die Extinktionen, die grundmolaren Drehwerte und die CD-Absorptionen als Funktion von Pn untersucht. Drehwerte und CD-Absorption durchlaufen zwischen Pn 70 und 100 maximale Werte und sinken bei höherem pn wieder ab. Sowohl ORD als auch CD nehmen im Laufe der Zeit zu, obwohl die Extinktionen und die Lage der Absorptionsmaxima und der COTTON-Effekte unverändert bleiben. Mögliche Ursachen werden diskutiert.

    Description / Table of Contents: Different diacyl peroxides, hydroperoxides, dialkylperoxides and peracids are used as components of Fe··-redox-systems to polymerize styrene in benzene at 50° C. The conversions so obtained are compared with those of peroxide-induced polymerization. In cases of brominated peroxides one can calculate from the bromine-content of the polymers the incorporated catalyzer-fragments. No bromine can be found in the polymer if one uses brombenzoperacid; therefore if must be assumed, that the chain-initiation ensues through OH-radicals.
    Notes: Verschiedene Diacylperoxyde, Hydroperoxyde, Dialkylperoxyde und Persären werden als Komponenten von Eisen-Redox-Systemen zur Polymerisation von Styrol in Benzol bei 50° C benutzt. Die erzielten Umsätze werden mit denen bei peroxydischer Polymerisation verglichen. Bei bromhaltigen Peroxyden kann aus dem Bromgehalt der Polymeren auf die Zahl der eingebauten peroxydischen Bruchstücke geschlossen werden. Dabei Anwendung von Brombenzopersäre kein Brom in den Polymeren nachzuweiseu ist, muß angenommen werden, daß der Kettenstart durch OH-Radikale erfolgt.
