    Notes: A series of azo-type side-chain liquid crystalline polysiloxanes (AZLCPs) were synthesized, starting from organic polysiloxane and azo-type mesogenic compounds having an end allyl group. The AZLCPs were further used to coordinate with palladium dichloride and potassium chloride, by which a series of palladium complexes of AZLCPs (Pd-AZLCPs) were prepared. The mesogenic properties of all of the liquid crystalline polymers were characterized by using differential scanning calorimetry, polarized microscope and wide-angle X-ray diffraction. It was found that all of the polymer ligands and their palladium complexes showed thermotropic liquid crystallinity and that the incorporation of the palladium ions gave positive effects to the mesogenic properties of their polymer ligand counterpart. Compared with the corresponding AZLCPs, the Pd-AZLCPs have higher isotropization temperatures and a broader mesophase temperature range. The mesogenic properties of the liquid crystalline polymer ligands and their palladium complexes were also varied gradually by changing the length of the alkoxy groups on the side chain. The polymers that have a color emissive group and a highly flexible polysiloxane main chain may potentially be used as nonlinear optical materials.

    Notes: A new, specially designed nonlinear optical (NLO) polymer is composed of ladderlike polysilsesquioxane as a backbone and “side-on or end-on” fixed stilbene chromophores. In-situ poling was carried out simultaneously during film formation via solvent evaporation and crosslinking which was caused by sequential hydrolysis and condensation of remained Si-H groups on macromolecules. The dipolar orientation after poling is described by an order parameter Φ which was measured using an original linear optical technique-UV dichroism. Orientation order and its decay are influenced by chromophore loading, crosslinking degree and poling condition. Compared with corresponding single chain polymers, a poled thin film of ladderlike NLO polymers demonstrates more stable poling-induced orientation.

    Notes: The surface of ultra-high strength polyethylene (UHSPE) fibers was modified using allylamine plasma deposition to improve their adhesion to epoxy resins. Allylamine plasma polymerization was investigated at different power inputs and polymerization times. The adhesion of treated fibers to epoxy resin was studied by single-fiber, pull-out tests. A special silicon rubber mold was developed to embed the single fiber in epoxy resin. The results show that the interfacial shear strength (IFSS) increased by a factor of 2 to 3 after allylamine plasma treatments. The greatest improvement, by a factor of 3.25, was obtained at 30 W for 10 min. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was also used to study the surface topography of fibers pulled from the epoxy resin. In most cases, it was observed that pull-out failure occurred at the interface, as evidenced from clean fiber surfaces. In a few cases, however, fibrils were peeled from fibers. The fiber strength decreased, but initial modulus increased after the plasma treatments. The decrease in fiber strength was insignificant for treatments at a lower power input, but was significant at higher power inputs. Treatment time, however, had no significant effect on fiber strength.

    Notes: Allylamine (CH2=CH—CH2—NH2) was polymerized through rf generated plasma at varying powers and times. Chemical groups and elemental compositions in the polymers were studied using ESCA and infrared spectroscopy. It was observed that plasma derived polymers contained a significant number of primary amines, along with some secondary and tertiary amines, imines, and nitrile groups. Plasma derived polymers had a complex structure and contained unsaturated groups. A considerable amount of oxygen, primarily from residual air in the plasma reaction chamber, and possibly from atmosphere when plasma polymers were exposed to air, was responsible for carbonyl, amide, ether, and hydroxyl groups found in the polymer structure. Some silicon was also detected in the plasma deposited films.

    Description / Table of Contents: Innere Chlorierung von Nickelbasislegierungen and ihre Beziehung zur Korrosion durch VerdampfungDie Kinetik der inneren Chlorierung von Nickelbasislegierungen im Temperaturbereich zwischen 400°C und 700°C wurde mittels optischer und Rasterelektronenmikroskopie untersucht. Die innere Chlorierung von Ni-4Cr und Ni-4Cr-O,5Ce erfolgte durch Bildung fester Ausscheidungen wie CrCl2 und CeCl3, die thermodynamisch stabil sind und bei den Temperaturen niedrige Dampfdrücke in der Legierungsmatrix haben. Im niedrigeren Temperaturbereich folgte die Kinetik der inneren Chlorierung annähernd einem parabolischen Geschwindigkeitsgesetz. Der Grad der inneren Chlorierung nahm mit steigender Temperatur zu. Im höheren Temperaturbereich wurde der innere Angriff durch Legierungsverbrauch infolge Verdampfung begleitet. Wenn die Geschwindigkeit der inneren Chlorierung gleich der Geschwindigkeit des Gesamtmetallverbrauches war, näherte sich die Tiefe der inneren Chlorierungszone einem stationären Wert. Bei hohen Temperaturen, bei denen die Verdampfung dominierte, war die stationäre Tiefe der inneren Chlorierung sogar kleiner als bei niedrigeren Temperaturen. Wenn eine Probe nur geringer Verdampfung ausgesetzt war, zeigte sie mehr inneren Angriff als bei stärkerer Verdampfung und umgekehrt.
    Notes: The kinetics of internal chlorination of Ni-based alloys between 400°C and 700°C were investigated by optical and scanning electron microscopy. Internal chlorination of Ni-4Cr and Ni-4Cr-0.5Ce alloy occurred by formation of solid precipitates such as CrCl2, and CeCl3 which are thermodynamically stable and have low vapor pressures at the temperatures within the alloy matrix. In the lower temperature range, the kinetics of internal chlorination nearly followed a parabolic rate law. The degree of internal chlorination increased with increasing temperature. In the higher temperature range, the internal attack was accompanied by the consumption of the alloy by volatilization. When the rate of internal chlorination equaled the rate of overall metal consumption, the depth of the internal chlorination zone would approach a steady state value. At high temperatures, where vaporization was predominant, the steady state depth of internal attack was even smaller than that at lower temperature. When an alloy specimen was subject to little volatilization, it showed more internal attack than when it was not, and vice versa.

    Notes: In order to investigate conformational preferences of the 21-residue peptide hormone endothelin-1 (ET-1), an extensive conformational search was carried out in vacuo using a combination of high temperature molecular dynamics / annealing and a Monte Carlo / minimization search in torsion angle space. Fully minimized conformations from the search were grouped into families using a clustering technique based on rms fitting over the Cartesian coordinates of the atoms of the peptide backbone of the ring region. A wide range of local energy minima were identified even though two disulfide bridges (Cys1-Cys15 and Cys3-Cys11) constrain the structure of the peptide. Low energy conformers of ET-1 as a nonionized species in vacuo arestabilized by intramolecular interaction of the ring region (residues 1-15) with the tail (residues 16-21). Strained conformations for individual residues are observed. Conformational similarity to protein loops is established by matching to protein crystal structuresIn order to assess the influence of aqueous environment on conformational preference, the electrostatic contribution to the solvation energy was calculated for ET-1 as a fully ionized species (Asp8, Lys9, Glu10, Asp18, N- and C-terminus) using a continuum electrostatics model (DelPhi) for each of the conformed generated in vacuo, and the total solvation free energy was estimated by adding a hydrophobic contribution proportional to solvent accessible surface area. Solvation dramatically alters the relative energetics of ET-1 conformers from that calculated in vacuo. Conformers of ET-1 favored by the electrostatic salvation energy in water include conformers with helical secondary structure in the region of residues 9-15.Perhaps of most importance, it was demonstrated that the contribution tosolvation by an individual charge depends not only on its solvent accessibility but on the proximity of other charges, i.e., it is a cooperative effect. This was shown by the calculation of electrostatic solvation energy as afunction of conformation with individual charges systematically turned “on” and “off”. The cooperative effect of multiple charges on solvation demonstrated in this manner calls into question models that relate solvation energysimply to solvent accessibility by atom or residue alone. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
