    Notes: A series of liquid-crystalline polystyrene derivatives with ω-(4-(4-fluorophenylazo)phenoxy)-alkoxy pendant groups have been synthesized and characterized. Homologues with four or more methylene units in the spacer chain exhibit smectic liquid-crystalline phases, while the homologue with three methylene units forms an amorphous glass. The smectic A-isotropic (SA-I) transition temperatures show a marked odd-even effect as a function of the parity of the spacer chain. This odd-even behaviour is also found in the variation of ΔS/R at the SA-I transition across the series. A marked hysteresis between the transition temperatures determined on heating and the transition temperatures determined on cooling is observed. A molecular interpretation of these phenomena is proposed.

    Notes: The properties of crosslinked thermosetting resins depend markedly on the completeness of the crosslinking process. Determination of the degree of cure of an unsaturated polyester resin has been studied previously by mechanical, spectroscopic and volume resistivity methods. In this respect the effect of cure time and temperature on the ac dielectric constant and dissipation factor at 1 kc/s and 10 kc/s is considered. The dissipation factor appears to be a most useful parameter for detecting changes in the degree of cure in the later stages of reaction.The electrical properties of the cured resin are discussed, and values for the energy of activation for electrical conduction are compared with literature reports on similar materials.

    Notes: Methods for preparing saturated polyolefin oligomers with Si(SINGLE BOND)H, epoxy groups, and with dihydroxy groups have been developed. Anionic polymerization of butadiene, then termination of the chains with chlorodimethylsilane leads to controlled molecular weight oligomers with silane functionality, and wherein the microstructure can be tailored. Hydrogenation of these materials proceeds smoothly using colloidal nickel catalysts to yield the corresponding saturated materials, which are stable to conditions used for melt polyesterifications. Hydrosilation of allyl glycidyl ether with the Si(SINGLE BOND)H end groups produces epoxy functional oligomers, and subsequent hydrolysis of the epoxy rings yields oligomers with a dihydroxy group at one end. Melt copolymerization of the olefin macromers with 1,4-butanediol and 1,4-dimethylcyclohexanedicarboxylate in the presence of titanium isopropoxide affords poly(ester-g-olefin) graft copolymers. These copolymers are under study as model interfacial agents for polyester/polyolefin blends and as suspension agents for polyester particles in nonpolar media. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The dielectric relaxation behavior of a nonaligned and an aligned liquid-crystalline (LC) polymer are reported for the ranges 10-3.5 to 105 Hz and 274-363 K. Multiple processes (δ and α) are observed that follow a Vogel equation for the temperature dependence related to the apparent glass transition temperature. The occurrence of these processes and the variation in their relaxation strengths as sample alignment is changed is interpreted in terms of a molecular theory for the dielectric behavior of a LC polymer that involves the director order parameter Sd, the mesophase order parameter S, the dipole moment components of the mesogenic head groups, and their associated relaxation functions.

    Notes: The dimerization constant (Kg) of acrylic acid and the association constant of the comonomer complex between acrylic acid and 1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (K1) have been determined in chloroform by means of IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy: Kd=(2.0±0.2) × 103litre mol-1 and K1=68.5±0.5 litre mol-1. A detailed equation for the copolymer composition considering the participation of the intermolecular complexes in the chain propagation has been derived with the help of a specific regular three addition states Markov chain. Applying a numerical procedure for fitting the experimental curve for the comonomer composition, this equation has been used in the estimation of the dimer and the comonomer complex relative reactivities. The considerably higher reactivities of the two complexes compared with that of the monomers are accounted for by the π-electrons' greater delocalization in the transition states involving the complexes species.

    Notes: The factors that control the alignment of LC side-chain polymers in directing a.c. and d.c. electric fields are critically reviewed. The principles involved when alignment is attempted by cooling from the melt in the presence of an electric field or by direct application of the field to a material in its liquid-crystalline (LC) state are outlined, and the difficulties which may be encountered in practice are described and evaluated. An “electrical cleaning” method whereby the low-frequency conductance losses in a sample may be reduced is described and is applied to LC polymer materials. Experimental dielectric data are presented and analysed for two LC polymers which contain azo-groups in the side chains.

    Notes: The association constant of the H-complex formation between acrylic acid and 1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone in tetrahydrofuran at 22°C (K1 = 1350 mol 1-1) was determined by means of 1H NMR spectroscopy. A detailed equation for the copolymer composition, accounting for the participation in the chain propagation of the above complex and that between acid and solvent molecules, was derived. It was used for evalution of the relative reactivities of the complexes discussed and of the uncomplexed 1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone molecules.

    Notes: An experimental study of the extents and rates of adsorption of several polymers from various solvents onto activated carbon has been carried out. The polymers studied included polystyrene, polybutadiene, butadiene-styrene copolymers and poly(methyl methacrylate). The solvents included toluene, cumene, decalin, 2-pentanone, and methyl ethyl ketone (MEK). Polystyrene is adsorbed from the different solvents in the order MEK, 2-pentanone, cumene, toluene, decalin. The adsorption from toluene, decalin, and cumene is in the order polystyrene, polybutadiene butadiene - styrene copolymer. The fact that the copolymer is adsorbed less than either homopolymer is striking. The variation of molecular weight distribution with extent of adsorption has been studied. It was found that low molecular weight polymer was preferentially adsorbed in the early stages of the experiment, but high molecular weight polymer was adsorbed at longer times. The apparent adsorption rate constants have been evaluated for the various systems and resolved into external mass transfer, internal (intraparticle) mass transfer, and adsorption rate constants. The experimental data have been applied to the prediction of the elution of the polymers from chromatographic columns packed with activated carbon.

    Notes: An In vitro comparison of the corrosion response of 316LVM stainless steel and MP35N (a CoNiCrMo alloy) electrodes under conditions appropriate to applications in functional electrical stimulation (FES) was made. Electrodes of both alloys were subjected to a cathodic 40 μC/cm2 charge injection protocol and the potential transient response was recorded over a 96 h period. The transient responses were compared with potentiodynamic polarization data used to establish the quasiequilibrium response of the alloys in the carbonate and phosphate-buffered saline electrolyte used in the study. The MP35N electrodes exhibited extensive pitting corrosion during charge injection, whereas little corrosion was observed on 316LVM electrodes. An explanation for the susceptibility of MP35N to corrosion during charge injection is found in the potentiodynamic polarization data, which reveal a breakdown potential (critical pitting potential) of 0.45 V (SCE) for MP35N compared with 1.05 V (SCE) for 316LVM. Factors that may influence corrosion response during charge injection from alloys exhibiting active-passive behavior are discussed. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
