    Notes: Abstract In recent years many studies have indicated an involvement of inflammatory mechanisms in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Acute-phase proteins such as α1-antichymotrypsin and c-reactive protein, elements of the complement system, and activated microglial and astroglial cells are consistently found in brains of AD patients. Most importantly, also cytokines such as interleukin-6 (IL-6) have been detected in the cortices of AD patients, indicating a local activation of components of the unspecific inflammatory system. Up to now it has remained unclear whether inflammatory mechanisms represent a primary event or only an unspecific reaction to brain tissue damage. Therefore, we investigated whether IL-6 immunoreactivity could be found in plaques prior to the onset of neuritic changes, or whether the presence of this cytokine is restricted to later stages of plaque pathology. we confirmed our previous observation that IL-6 is detectable in a significant proportion of plaques in the brains of demented patients. In AD patients IL-6 was found in diffuse plaques in a significant higher ratio as would have been expected from a random distribution of IL-6 among all plaque types. This observation suggests that IL-6 may precede neuritic changes, and that immunological mechanism may be involved both in the transformation from diffuse to neuritic plaques in AD and in the development of dementia.

    Notes: The dynamic behavior of elastomers is usually studied in terms of a sinusoidal system. The theoretical and practical limitations of such analysis are discussed. A method which permits calculation of dynamic properties over a wide range of frequencies and forcing functions is described. The theoretical justification and limitations as well as the experimental setup are presented. Using SBR, natural rubber, and butyl, examples of the dynamic responses for various forcing functions are shown. The analogue computer is used to show properties of the above described rubbers which are useful from both the theoretical and application-oriented viewpoints.

    Notes: A geometrical analysis is given of the tread motions occurring in the contact length of a rolling tire. Both the case of a free rolling wheel and that of a wheel under torque are discussed. We have derived expressions and curves for the relative slip and compressions which occur at the contact length for the two conditions. It is found that two important structural features control the nature of tread motions. These are the torsional rigidity of the sidewall and the compressibility of the tread. In addition, the implication of the analysis in tire design and performance are discussed.

    Notes: We have found that vulcanizates of MD-551 and butyl rubber at identical crosslink densities have similar properties in low deformation tests at room temperatures. At high extension, the butyl has considerably higher tensile strength which we have associated with crystallization. The MD-551, on the other hand, shows heat stability far superior to that of butyl. It is postulated here that both these differences follow from the nature of the crosslinks in each polymer. The crosslinks in the MD-551 are thought to be both mechanically and chemically more stable than those in butyl. This prevents crystallization on stretching and enhances high temperature stability. Thus far, we have been concerned only with the gum properties of the MD-551. From our previous work, we would expect carbon black to improve the tensile properties of MD-551. Furture work will therefore be concerned with properties of reinforced MD-551. In addition, studies will be made in order to learn more about the crosslinks and how they affect vulcanizate performance.

    Notes: Sorption of liquids by elastomers is advanced as a means of studying polymer structure. Liquids represent a wider versatility in this regard over vapors since they allow choices of molecular sizes, shapes, and configurational distributions, and thermal effects not available with vapors. Configurations, coiling versus stretched-out molecules, are examined and shown to be of considerable importance in the sorption process. The problem of determination of the concentration dependence is attacked by use of a binary solution as a sorbent or swelling agent. The binary solution is so chosen that one liquid may be considered the solvent and the other liquid a nonsolvent for the particular elastomer. The ternary solution of butyl network - hexane - acetone was used in sorption experiments at 25°C. The total uptake of the binary liquid was measured from zero time to equilibrium in an optical swelling apparatus. Simultaneously, the composition of the binary liquid sorbed at any time was measured in a recording differential refractometer. The two sets of data were combined to calculate the ratio of the two liquids sorbed. The dilution procedure succeeded in varying the apparent activity of the solvent hexane. Preferential sorption of hexane was observed, but significant amounts of the nonsolvent acetone enter the network. The known equilibrium uptake values of hexane from the binary solutions are used to determine the concentration dependence of the diffusion of liquid hexane in a butyl network at 25°C. D0 = 2 × 10-9 cm.2 sec.-1 and a concentration dependence of 10 were obtained by this method. “Activities” for the hexane in the diluted form are calculated for an elastically calibrated network. The activities for the entire concentration range studied agree well with those of a comparable swollen polymer - liquid system such as natural rubber - benzene vapor. Test of the generality of the present method is suggested. Such a test would involve examination of the dependence of the hexane activities so calculated on the nature of the nonsolvent used in the binary liquid.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Kinetik der Äthylenpolymerisation in einer speziellen Apparatur wurde untersucht. Eine stabile Katalysator-Kombination (Al(C2H5)2Cl/γ-TiCl3), die während der Polymerisation keine Änderung erfährt, wurde angewendet. Es werden Bedingungen beschrieben, unter denen die Reaktion (a) unabhängig, (b) abhängig von der Monomer-Übertragungsgeschwindigkeit ist. Nach einer Anlaufperiode verläuft die Polymerisation mit konstanter Geschwindigkeit, bis das Reaktionsgemisch nicht mehr ausreichend gerührt werden kann. Der Katalysator wird weder okkludiert noch desaktiviert, so daß unbegrenzte Polymermengen mit einer bestimmten Katalysatorkonzentration hergestellt werden können. Sofern die Reaktion nicht durch den Monomer-Transport bestimmt wird, ist die Geschwindigkeit linear von Monomer- und TiCl3-Konzentration abhängig und unabhängig von der Al(C2H5)2Cl-Konzentration. Wasserstoff setzt bei konstantem Äthylendruck die Polymerisationsgeschwindigkeit herab.
    Notes: The kinetics of the polymerization of ethylene was studied in an apparatus which is described. A stable catalyst combination [Al(C2H5)2Cl/γ-TiCl3] which does not change during the polymerization was used. Conditions are defined under which the reaction is (a) independent of mass transfer rate (b) controlled by mass transfer. After an initial period, the polymerization proceeds at constant rate until the slurry is too thick to stir adequately. The catalyst is neither occluded nor deactivated so that unlimited quantities of polymer can be made from a given amount. When the reaction is not controlled by mass transfer, the rate is linearly dependent on monomer and TiCl3 concentration and is independent of Al(C2H5)2Cl. Hydrogen reduces the rate of the polymerization at a constant partial pressure of ethylene.
