    Notes: Summary Two soil extracts used for chemical indexes for N availability, 0.01M NaHCO3 and boiling 0.01M CaCl2, were analyzed in effort to learn more about the nature of the extracted organic matter (O.M.). The two extracts appeared to remove different fractions of the soil O.M. A study of five soils showed that the C/N value of the NaHCO3 extract (following decarbonation) was significantly higher than that of the total soil O.M.; while the C/N value in the boiling CaCl2 extract was not significantly different from that in the soil O.M. There was also significant variation in C/N values among soils for the boiling CaCl2 extract. The extracts of three soils were analyzed for apparent molecular weight distribution using gel filtration and the results compared to those for base-extracted humic substances. Almost all the molecules in the extracts had apparent molecular weights less than 21,000 daltons while 21 to 47% of the humic substances from the same soils (extracted with 0.5M NaOH) had molecular weights greater than 21,000 daltons. In the boiling CaCl2 extract, 78 to 87% of the humic substances had apparent molecular weights less than 1,000 daltons, whereas with the NaHCO3 extract, 42 to 83% of the humic substances were in the 1,000 to 21,000 dalton range. Forty-three to 92% of the N extracted by the NaHCO3 was in protein form, and 8 to 30% was ninhydrin-detectable. In the boiling CaCl2 extract 25 to 30% of the extracted N was ninhydrin-detectable. For the same 10 soils, ninhydrin-detectable N values of the boiling CaCl2 extract appeared closely related to greenhouse and field relative N uptake, while the ninhydrin-detectable N values of the NaHCO3 extract appeared unrelated to both. The protein N and protein in plus ninhydrin-detectable N values of the NaHCO3 extract were closely related to greenhouse relative N uptake only. The results of this study indicated that specific fractions of the soil O.M. were being extracted by the two solutions and that significant differences existed in the chemical nature of the two extracts.

    Notes: Summary The effect was studied of storage temperature on the index of available soil N wich uses U.V. absorbance of a 0.01M NaHCO3 extract as an indicator. The U.V. absorbance was found to increase at a non-linear rate for four soils stored at temperatures of 50, 75, and 150°C. The change in extract absorbance due to extended soil storage at each of these temperatures was positively correlated to the percent organic matter, percent N, C/N value and concentration of humic substances in soils, but not to the extract absorbance prior to soil storage. These findings were not consistent with room temperature storage data which showed a linear increase in extract absorbance with soil storage time. The change in absorbance for the room temperature case was not related to any of the soil parameters mentioned above. Analysis of a soil stored at 105°C showed an increase in ninhydrin-detectable N, protein N and Kjeldahl N of the NaHCO3 extract, while the apparent molecular weight distribution of extracted organic matter (as determined by gel filtration) showed only a slight change. As a comparison to the NaHCO3 extract, a boiling CaCl2 extract of the same soil was also analyzed; and the absorbance at 260 nm was found to increase in a curvilinear fashion with starage time at 75°C but to less of an extent than was noted with the NaHCO3 extract. Nitrogen availability indexes based on the U.V. absorbance of these extracts, particularly those utilizing the NaHCO3 extract, would be significantly affected by soil storage at elevated temperatures.

    Notes: In this work dispersive mixing and chemical reactions are treated simultaneously by resorting to the theory of stochastic processes. A fluidized-bed reactor is modeled by discretizing it into ideally stirred tanks of various sizes corresponding to bubble, cloud, and emulsion phases. All parameters in the model are correlated with known or experimentally obtainable quantities. Examples using a complex chemical reaction are given to demonstrate the applicability of the approach.

    Notes: Morphology, stress-strain properties, and grafting have been investigated in highly phase-separated polyurethane (PU)-poly(n-butyl methacrylate) (PBMA) mixtures as a function of the sequence of formation of the components, both linear (l) and crosslinked (x), in the presence of each other. In the range of 0.3-0.7 weight fraction of PU, a morphology of PBMA particles in a PU matrix results. Particle size depends on matrix viscosity at the time of PBMA formation, decreasing as viscosity increases. The PBMA (l) particles are spherical; PBMA (x) particles are irregular in shape when formed in a fluid medium but tend to become spherical as the delay time before the onset of their formation is increased. Grafting, decreasing with increasing delay time, is observed between PBMA (l) particles and the PU (x) or PU (l) matrix. The grafting results from transesterification between BMA and the polyol precursors to the PU. Two families of mechanical properties are found, depending generally more on particle shape than size. Systematic trends of property values through a series of samples of constant composition, but increasing delay times, are observed with greater variation in the series with PBMA (x) particles; the trends are explainable in terms of matrix immobilization by the particles.

    Notes: Dynamic mechanical properties have been investigated for interpenetrating-network systems based on polyol-cured polyurethanes (PU) and 2 to 1 n-butyl acrylate-n-butyl methacrylate (Ac) networks. The systems were formed simultaneously (SIN) from all of the precursors and reactants for both networks in the same vessel, and sequentially (SIPN) by swelling a precured PU with the reactants that will form the Ac network. If the Ac network is formed after gelation of the PU, the IPNs are transparent and appear to have single T (tan δmax) between those of the homonetworks; visible-phase separation occurs if the Ac is intentionally polymerized prior to PU gelation. Damping curves were lower and broader and the T (tan δmax) and rubber moduli were higher for the SIN than for the SIPN systems. Up to 65 percent Ac, the T (tan δmax) data for both SIN and SIPN fit the Gordon-Taylor equation if a T (tan δmax) for the Ac homonetwork 7°C higher than observed is used, suggesting a higher crosslink density for the Ac network under these conditions. The differences in properties of the SIN and SIPN are assumed to be dependent on sample homogeneity and upon the presence of a tin catalyst in the SIN preparation. This can result in limited Ac-network formation and consequent phase separation before PU gelation has occurred, and the catalyst may also increase the extent of interaction, such as grafting or hydrogen-bond formation between the networks.

    Notes: Poly(methyl methacrylate) has been photolyzed with 2537 A. radiation in dioxane and in methylene chloride at about 25°C. in the presence and absence of air. In degassed solutions, quantum yields for random scission are only slightly affected by either intensity or polymer concentration. Oxygen is an apparent inhibitor for photodegradation. The inhibiting and sensitizing effects of a variety of added solutes, including aromatic hydrocarbons, aliphatic dienes, and ketones were investigated; the behavior is similar whether or not oxygen is present. The results are best explained on the basis of an electronic energy transfer mechanism involving the lowest excited triplet levels of the polymer and the added solutes.

    Notes: Poly(methylene disulfide), poly(methylene tetrasulfide), poly(ethylene disulfide), and poly(ethylene tetrasulfide) have been subjected to ultraviolet radiation in vacuum at 50°C. Weight losses during photolysis include both low molecular weight compounds and readily condensable polymeric materials; the latter account for the greater proportion of the weight losses. Carbon monosulfide, isolated as its polymer, and hydrogen sulfide are major photolytic products. Carbon disulfide is a major product from the methylene but not from the ethylene polymers. The tetrasulfide polymers during irradiation from volatile products which on condensation give the original polymer. A mechanism of degradation compatible with these findings is suggested.

    Notes: Charge transfer (CT) interaction is described in semiconducting dispersions of TCNQ complex salt \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ {\rm Et}_3 {\rm NH}^+ ({\rm TCNQ})_2^{\cdot^{\hskip-3.7pt\hbox{--}}}$\end{document} with and without added TCNQ°, in poly(vinyl acetal) matrices in which the electron-donor moiety is varied. The extent of CT interaction was determined in films and in solution (DMF, acetonitrile, or methylene chloride) through the absorbances at 398 nm (\documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ {\rm TCNQ}{\ }^{\cdot^{\hskip-3.7pt\hbox{--}}}$\end{document} and TCNQ°) and 857 nm \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ {\rm TCNQ}{\ }^{\cdot^{\hskip-3.7pt\hbox{--}}}$\end{document}. Resistivity of the conductive films was related to the stoichiometry of TCNQ species in the films and found to have a minimum at \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$[{\rm TCNQ}^\circ]/[{\rm TCNQ}{\ }^{\cdot^{\hskip-3.7pt\hbox{--}}}]\simeq 1$\end{document}. Lower resistivities were attained with films having a uniform, densely packed dispersion of microcrystallites which were obtained at a relatively slow solvent removal rate. With this particular complex salt, strong electron-donor polymers are found to be better matrices for semiconductivity.

    Notes: The photodegradation of thin films of poly-α-methylstyrene by near ultraviolet radiation has been studied in vacuum at 27 and 115°C. Changes taking place during photolysis were followed by a determination of monomer formation by ultraviolet spectroscopy, residue molecular weight through a measurement of intrinsic viscosity, and volatile products by mass spectroscopy. Gross features of the photolysis include random chain scission in the polymer with subsequent depolymerization of the radicals formed to yield small amounts of monomer; the kinetic chain length is on the order of 15 in the temperature range studied. Quantum yields at 27°C. for chain scission and monomer formation are 1 × 10-3 and 7 × 10-3, respectively. At 115°C. the quantum yields are 2 × 10-2 and 0.5. Small quantities of hydrogen, CO2, CO, and a number of hydrocarbons were liberated during irradiation. An approximate one-to-one correlation between the number of main chain scissions and CO2 + CO molecules evolved was found, suggesting the occurrence of chain scission at weak linkages involving oxygen.
