    Notes: Summary Newly-hatched domestic chicks were reared separately with one of two types of imprinting object hanging in their cages. On the 5th day discrimination tests demonstrated strong preferences for the familiar object. On the 6th day the chicks were subjected to bilateral aspiration lesions of either the anterior or the lateral forebrain and their imprinting objects removed from the cages. Discrimination tests were made on the 9th and 12th days, the imprinting objects replaced, and a final relearning test given on the 14th day. The anterior lesion group was slightly impaired in the retention and relearning tests while the lateral lesion group was drastically affected, being significantly worse than the anterior group and with choices only just significantly above random expectation in the retention tests and no different from random choice in the relearning test. It was concluded that a lateral forebrain region is necessary for retention and relearning of a previously acquired imprinted preference.

    Notes: Summary Newly hatched domestic chicks were subjected to bilateral aspiration lesions of the anterior, dorsal, posterior or lateral regions of the forebrain and then were reared separately with one of two types of imprinting object. Between 3 and 10 days later they were tested for imprinting, pecking accuracy, visual looming and auditory startle responses. Lateral and dorsal lesion groups differed from a control group in the number of successful discriminations of their imprinting object and the lateral group was not significantly different from a random expectancy. All groups were impaired in pecking accuracy but the lateral group was the most severely affected. Looming responses and post startle freezing behaviour were reduced only in the posterior and dorsal groups which were also the least responsive in the imprinting tests. It was concluded that the lateral forebrain area is critically and specifically involved in the visual learning of imprinting being necessary for the discrimination of, but not for approach responsiveness to, imprinting objects.

    Notes: Amino-terminated polyetheretherketone (PEEK) oligomers were prepared by the condensation of 4,4′-difluorobenzophenone and hydroquinone in the presence of a calculated excess of m-aminophenol endblocker. The molecular weight of the oligomer was controlled by the manipulation of the ratio of difluoride to hydroquinone with the appropriate stoichiometric amount of m-aminophenol ensuring amino termination. The thermally induced self-crosslinking of these oligomers was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Curing was found to be quite slow, taking up to 1 h to reach completion at 668 K. Cured materials were all completely amorphous in contrast to the semi-crystalline starting material. The limiting Tg reached on curing was found to be proportional to the percentage of reactive terminal groups, as would be expected.

    Notes: Polyetheretherketone-polydimethylsiloxane (PEEK-PDMS) block copolymers were synthesized from the condensation of dimethylamino terminated PDMS and hydroxy terminated PEEK oligomers in 1-chloronapthalene. Yields for block copolymers synthesised from low molecular weight PDMS oligomers were good but yields were significantly reduced when higher molecular weight PDMS oligomers were used. This was related to the limited solubility of higher molecular weight PDMS in the reaction solvent. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) studies indicated that phase separation of the block copolymers occurred at very short segment length (M̄n 〈 4000). A depression in the crystallinity of both the PEEK and PDMS phases in the block copolymer was observed. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) studies indicated that the PEEK-PDMS block copolymers displayed insufficient thermo-oxidative stability to be melt-processed successfully in PEEK based blends.

    Notes: High molecular weight alternating block copolymers of polyethesulphone (PES) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) were prepared by the condensation of dimethylamino-terminated PDMS oligomers and hydroxy-terminated PES oligomers in 1,2-dichlorobenzene. Microphase separation of the block copolymers at exceptionally short block lengths was observed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The Si—O—C intersegment linkage in these materials appeared to display poor hydrolytic stability which is contrary to results obtained for other block copolymers.

    Notes: Routes to thermosetting polyethersulphones (PES) by endcapping an hydroxy terminated oligomer with thermally reactive propargyl, vinylbenzyl and cyanate groups were investigated. Model compounds were prepared to establish suitable routes to the reactive oligomers. DSC was used to study curing behaviour of oligomers and model compounds.
