    Notes: Summary The intestinal absorption and urinary elimination rate of total cardioactive material was compared following digoxin and beta-methyldigoxin (BMD) administration to twelve healthy volunteers. Significantly more injected digoxin was recovered in urine. Urinary clearance was more rapid for digoxin, mean half-lives of elimination being 35 hours for digoxin and 40 hours for BMD. Calculated percentage intestinal absorption was lowest for digoxin tablets with a dissolution rate of 77% in one hour, intermediate for BMD tablets, and maximal for an experimental soft gelatin formulation of digoxin in solution. Respective mean values were 75%, 87% and 97%. Similar steady state plasma concentrations followed twice daily ingestion of the 0.25 mg digoxin tablets and 0.20 mg BMD tablets. Mean peak plasma concentration and percentage urinary recovery of ingested dose were higher during continued BMD administration. Between-subject variation in absorption was higher for the digoxin tablets. The comparative intestinal absorption of BMD and digoxin depends upon the formulation. Digoxin is virtually completely absorbed from a solution encapsulated in soft gelatin. Relatively more BMD is eliminated by nonrenal routes.

    Notes: Summary (1) The mean cumulative urinary digoxin excretion over 8 days was compared in 8 healthy volunteers after single doses of digoxin administered as 3 Lanoxin tablets of 0.25 mg, 3 digoxin tablets of 0.2 mg, 12 Lanoxicaps without sorbitol of 0.05 mg, 6 Lanoxicaps without sorbitol of 0.1 mg digoxin, 3 Lanoxicaps without sorbitol of 0.2 mg and 3 Lanoxicaps with sorbitol of 0.2 mg. (2) There was no significant difference between the 8 day cumulative urinary excretion for any of the Lanoxicaps treatments. (3) Cumulative urinary excretion after 3 digoxin tablets of 0.2 mg was significantly (P〈0.05) lower than after all other treatments. (4) Cumulative urinary excretion after 3 Lanoxin tablets of 0.25 mg was not significantly different from that after any of the Lanoxicaps treatments except 0.1 mg Lanoxicaps without sorbitol, it was significantly (P〈0.05) lower after the latter. (5) Mean urinary excretion of digoxin was 60% of ingested dose for all Lanoxicaps treatments and was significantly (P〈0.05) higher than the mean value of 50% for both tablet treatments. (6) Enhanced absorption of digoxin from Lanoxicaps was confirmed and shown to be unrelated to the sorbitol content of the capsule shell.

    Notes: Polyphenylene ether (PPE) resin (a homopolymer made from 2,6-xylenol with an i.v. of 0.46) was reacted with phenyl acrylate, p-substituted phenyl acrylates, and diphenyl fumarate in an extruder or in solution. The number of olefinic molecules that had been grafted onto the PPE backbone was determined by FTIR or NMR methods, and the grafting efficiency and mechanism were examined. The grafted PPE resins were used to promote the anionic polymerization of ε-caprolactam, and the quantity and the composition of the PPE-nylon 6 copolymers isolated were correlated with the number of promoter groups attached to the PPE resin.

    Notes: The synthesis and characterization of amorphous, aromatic, polyaryl ethers has been investigated. Detailed synthesis procedures are provided. The main thrust of these activities was to synthesize polymers which could serve as castable amorphous matrix resins for carbonfiber composites and which would be highly resistant to radiation degradation. It was important that these polymers not contain any aliphatic groups in order to contrast their behavior with the commercially available Bisphenol-A polysulfones. The approach taken was to synthesize a series of statistical or random copolymers derived from hydroquinone and biphenol together with 4,4′-dichlorodiphenyl sulfone. In order to produce copolymers of high molecular weight, modified techniques were developed which utilized potassium carbonate as a weak base and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone as the aprotic dipolar solvent. Detailed procedures are provided in this paper for the synthesis of high molecular weight copolymers of this type. In addition, stress-strain, dynamic mechanical properties and preliminary electron beam (e-beam) degradation studies are reported significantly. Improved mechanical property retention after e-beam exposure was observed with the all aromatic polyether sulfones.

    Notes: We describe the design and implementation of a method based on infrared monitoring of the OD stretch mode which permits measurement of the diffusion profiles of water permeating glassy polymers for the first time. Results for several glassy polymers are compared with a theory of trapping diffusion which leads to a nonlinear diffusion problem in which the trapped water penetrates the polymer as a sharp front if there is a large amount of trapping. In the case of two of the polymers studied, the trapping model describes the data, very well (much better than a simple diffusion model) and permits determination of parameters related to the free volume and the residence time of the water on traps in the model. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Sodium sulfonated polypropylenes have been prepared by the slurry chlorosulfonation of polypropylene or propylene - ethylene copolymer followed by hot aqueous sodium hydroxide treatment. Low levels of excess sodium hydroxide were added to the materials to stabilize them against thermal decomposition. It was found that there was a strong interaction between the sodium hydroxide phase and the polymer sodium sulfonate groups which persisted above the nominal melting point of crystalline polypropylene. Evidence for the interaction includes an increased melt viscosity and a greatly increased nucleation rate for the composites as compared to the polypropylene sodium sulfonates not containing the sodium hydroxide phase. The composites have an improved balance of mechanical properties as compared to the materials from which they are prepared.

    Notes: In the γ-irradiation in vacuo of nylon 6 film in the presence of aqueous acrylic acid and different concentrations of cupric chloride, the following relationships have been obtained: RH ∝ [CuCl2]-1.0 and RG ∝ [CuCl2]-0.3 Here [CuCl2] is the concentration of cupric chloride in the bulk solution, and RH and RG denote the initial rates of homopolymerization and grafting, respectively. The values of -1.0 and -0.3 for the exponents indicate that the cupric ion is a less effective chain terminator in the film on account of its lower concentration there. Analyses of films grafted in different media demonstrate the copper content of a film to be independent of both the concentration of monomer in the solution and the degree of swelling. The copper content is primarily a function of the total poly(acrylic acid) present, i.e., (grafted species plus occluded homopolymer). Thus, at high doses, where the total poly(acrylic acid) associated with a film is significant, the grafting curves exhibit a falling off, and complex formation between cupric ion and a growing chain is considered a likely contributory factor.

    Notes: Samples of nylon 6 have been prepared by the hexamethylene diamine-initiated polymerization of ∊-caprolactam at 220°C. Fractionation of these with m-cresol-diethyl ether at 26°C yielded 15 amino-terminated fractions of M̄n of 337-10,940 determined conductometrically. Below M̄n = 4,306 the Mark-Houwink parameters in m-cresol at 30°C are K = 3.0 × 10-3 dl/g and v = 0.53 ± 0.02. Thereafter v exhibits a pronounced increase. The value of K is similar to the values of Kθ derived from Stockmayer-Fixman plots of published data in good solvents. The findings thus corroborate a current hypothesis that fractionated, low molecular weight polymers in good solvents tend to behave viscometrically, as if they were under θ conditions (i.e., K = Kθ and v = 0.50).

    Notes: Ionic groups incorporated into a polymer have a decided effect on its physical properties. A number of ionomers and polyelectrolytes have been widely applied. In particular, sulfonated bisphenol-A polysulfone (SPSF) has been used as a composite or single-component membrane for the desalination of water. In this article, the synthesis and physical characteristics of sulfonated polysulfone are addressed. A detailed synthesis route is provided and methods that yield determinable levels of sulfonation are described. These ion-containing polymers retain an excessive amount of residual salts, which, of course, are impurities to the system. Therefore, before any analyses were made the polymers were subjected to a thorough soxhlet extraction process with boiling water, which appeared to be quite effective. The degree of sulfonation was assessed by several methods such as 1H NMR and FT-IR. A new 1H NMR method was derived because the method cited in the literature proved to be too inconsistent for our work. The new 1H NMR method used a quaternary ammonium counterion [N(CH3)4]. These methyl protons are easily measured and may be ratioed against the isopropylidene protons in the polymer backbone that act as an internal standard. Characterization of the physical properties of SPSF consisted of water uptake, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermomechanical analysis (TMA), and solubility studies. Its physical appearance and mechanical behavior were improved by the solution procedure. Also addressed were the effects of different counterions (Na+ & Mg++) with SPSFs of low levels of sulfonation. The variation in physical properties between the divalent and monovalent counterions is dramatic, especially when observed by TMA in the rubber plateau above the apparent glass temperature.

    Notes: Apparatus and technique have been described for the polymerization of 1,3-butadiene in the vapor phase with sodium as catalyst. Research grade butadiene or that obtained from alcohol is necessary for production of high molecular weight polymers by this method. Unmodified polymerizations with increased sodium surface go faster and produce polymers of lower gel content and inherent viscosity. Increase in polymerization temperature reduces the rate, gel content, and inherent viscosity. The chemical structure of the modifier seems to be the predominant factor in its efficiency within a concentration range of 0.1 to 1.0 %. Ethyl chloride is the most powerful modifier of those examined, followed in order by dimethylamine, acetaldehyde, and acetoue. Gelfree polymers with average inherent viscosities of the whole sol between 0.4 and 4.6 were vulcanized and evaluated. The weight distribution was found to be rather narrow for the low viscosity polymers but to become broader as the average inherent viscosity of the polymer increased. Optimum processing and tensile properties were obtained on the polymers of medium viscosity. The dynamic properties of the vulcanizates improve with increase in average inherent viscosity of the raw polymer; the ethyl chloride modified polymer is exceptionally good. The physical properties of the vulcanizate of a blend of equal parts of five polymers of inherent viscosity 1.0 to 4.6 were near those of the lowest molecular weight polymer.
