    Notes: The synthesis of a number of random and alternating copolymers of a fluorosiloxane and a hybrid fluorocarbon-fluorosiloxane are described, along with property comparisons. The random copolymers were prepared by silanol-chlorosilane condensation, while the alternating copolymer preparation involved the use of the novel silanol - silyl-N-methylacetamido condensation reaction, which was used to produce a high polymer, M̄n = 260,000. The physical properties of the two classes of polymers which were compared include: glass transition temperatures, reversion resistance, and thermal and oxidative weight loss. From these comparisons, it was possible to gauge the relative effects of backbone architecture, as well as monomer ratios, upon copolymer properties. Comparison of the thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of both the random and alternating LS/FCS copolymer systems with the parent LS and FCS homopolymers indicates that the copolymer generally show little variation among themselves, but better thermal characteristics than either of the parents.

    Notes: An experimental study of foam extrusion was carried out to determine the effect of processing variables on the quality of the foam produced. For the study, the chemical blowing agent azodicarbonamide was used, together with an activator and a nucleating agent, to produce thermoplastic foams of low-density polyethylenes. The quality of foam was determined from photomicrographs and the tensile properties of extrudate samples. It was found that the percent elongation correlates with the foam density and that the cell structure (cell size and its distribution) correlates with the ultimate tensile properties of the foam produced. Also, an experimental study was carried out to observe the growth of gas bubbles as the polymer melt containing a blowing agent flows through a rectangular channel constructed of quartz. This experiment helped us to interpret the curved pressure profile of the polymer melt containing a blowing agent as the melt approaches the die exit, whereas the polymer without a blowing agent shows a linear pressure profile.

    Notes: Two-layer films were produced by using the blown-film coextrusion apparatus constructed in our laboratory. For this study, we have produced films of the following combinations: (1) LDPE/CXA 3095; (2) LDPE/Plexar 3; (3) LDPE/EMA; (4) nylon 6/LDPE; (5) nylon 6/CXA 3095; (6) nylon 6/Plexar 3; (7) nylon 6/EMA. Tensile properties of the coextruded films were measured with an Instron testing machine, and correlated to processing variables, namely, takeup ratio and blowup ratio. From tensile property measurements, we have found that both the ultimate tensile strength and the tensile modulus of coextruded films follow the additivity rule with respect to the volume fraction of the individual components. With the films produced, we also conducted dynamic mechanical measurements with the aid of a Rheovibron Dynamic Viscoelastometer DDV-II, and attempted to test the Zorowski-Murayama theory to determine the adhesion characteristics of the coextruded films. Furthermore, permeability of the coextruded films to gases (namely, N2, O2, and CO2) was measured by using a pressure differential apparatus constructed in our laboratory. We have found that the permeability of composite films follows the inverse additivity rule, i.e., the reciprocal of the permeability of composite film is given by the sum of the reciprocals of the permeabilities of the individual layers.

    Notes: Thermoset poly(dipropoxylated bisphenol S-fumarate) showed an increase in heat deformation resistance over thermoset poly(dipropoxylated bisphenol A-fumarate). However, the poly(dipropoxylated bisphenol S-fumarate) required the incorporation of about 20 mole-% of dipropoxylated bisphenol A into the polyester molecule to be styrene compatible. Condensation polymerization of various ratios of the dipropoxylated bisphenols with fumaric acid was employed to prepare the polyesters. The polyesters were then thermoset by crosslinking with styrene using a peroxide initiator. The thermoset of a poly(dipropoxylated bisphenol S-fumarate), into which 20 mole-% of the dipropoxylated bisphenol A had been incorporated, had a heat distortion temperature 13°C higher than the poly(dipropoxylated bisphenol A-fumarate) thermoset.

    Notes: An experimental study was carried out to investigate the moldability of polymer blends which form two phases in the molten state and the effect of mixing on the morphology and mechanical porperties of molded specimens. Blends of polystyrene with polypropylene and blends of polystyrene with high-density polyethylene were used for this study. A plunger-type injection molding machine (Van Dorn) was employed for molding specimens. To improve the mixing performance of the plunger machine, a Static Mixer (Kenics Corp., Super Nozzle) was installed between the heating cylinder and the sprue. A number of different molding conditions (injection pressure, temperature, injection time, cooling time) were varied, and molded specimens were collected under each molding condition. The specimens were used for studying the degree of dispersion in the blends and for determining the mechanical properties. A differential thermal analysis (DTA) experiment was also carried out to determine the degree of dispersion of the blends in molded specimens. It was found that a linear correlation exists between the blend composition and thermal spectra area of the blends tested.

    Notes: Poly-3-hydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) containing repeating units with terminal alkene substituents at the 3-position were produced by Pseudomonas oleovorans grown with either 7-octeneoic acid [OA(=)] alone, or 10-undeceneoic acid [UND(=)] alone, or mixtures of UND(=) and either nonanoic acid (NA) or octanoic acid (OA). For the latter, the biomass and PHA yields decreased as the fraction of UND(=) increased in the mixed carbon substrates. Essentially all of the repeating units in the PHA obtained from cells grown with UND(=) alone contained terminal alkene groups, including 3-hydroxy-10-undeceneoate, 3-hydroxy-8-noneneoate, and 3-hydroxy-6-hepteneoate units, but less than half of the units in the PHA from OA(=) had alkene substituents. The PHAs obtained from cells grown with various mixtures of UND(=) and either OA or NA were random copolymers, and the fraction of units with alkene substituents in these polymers increased in proportion to the fraction of UND(=) in the mixed carbon substrates. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: We present a theoretical model which describes a cooperative helix-coil liquid-crystal phase transition. We show that this model predicts a first-order phase transition where certain types of chainlike macromolecules in solution make a transition from a nearly coiled to a nearly rigid conformation accompanied by a simultaneous development of long-range nematic-type liquid crystalline orientational order. From this model, the phase boundaries between nematic and isotropic phases are obtained as functions of concentration of macromolecules and of other physical parameters.

    Notes: Various types of polyethylene homopolymers and copolymers, including linear high-density polyethylene (HDPE), branched low-density polyethylene (BLDPE), poly(ethylene vinyl acetate) copolymer (EVA), heterogeneous linear poly(ethylene/α-olefin) copolymer (het-LEAO) or commonly known as linear low-density polyethylene, homogeneous linear poly(ethylene/α-olefin) copolymer (hom-LEAO), and homogeneous branched poly(ethylene/α-olefin) copolymer (hom-BEAO), were evaluated for their melt rheological and thermodynamic properties with emphasis on their molecular structure. Short-chain branching (SCB) mainly controls the density, but it has little effect on the melt rheological properties. Long-chain branching (LCB) has little effect on the density and thermodynamic properties, but it has drastic effects on the melt rheological properties. LCB increases the pseudo-plasticity and the flow activation energy for both the polyethylene homopolymer and copolymer. Compared at a same melt index and a similar density, hom-LEAO has the highest viscosity in processing among all polymers due to its linear molecular structure and very narrow molecular weight distribution. Small amounts of LCB in hom-BEAO very effectively reduce the average viscosity and also improve the flow stability. Both hom-LEAO and hom-BEAO, unlike het-LEAO, have thermodynamic properties similar to BLDPE. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Homogeneous precursor/precursor solutions with various compositions were obtained with appreciably high solid contents in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone from soluble poly(amic diethyl ester) precursors of rodlike poly(p-phenylene biphenyltetracarboximide) (BPDA-PDA) and flexible poly(4,4′-oxydiphenylene biphenyltetracarboximide) (BPDA-ODA), which are hydrolytically more stable as well as more soluble than the corresponding poly(amic acid)s being equilibrated with the constituent monomers. Both optical microscopic and light scattering measurements showed that the dried precursor blend films and resultant polyimide composite films were optically transparent, regardless of compositions and process conditions. The composite films showed a single Tg behavior. However, for the composite of 30 wt % BPDA-PDA dispersed in the matrix of 70 wt % BPDA-ODA, a smectic crystalline-like aggregation of the BPDA-PDA component was detected on wide-angle x-ray diffraction patterns, indicative of microscopic phase separation between the two components. This phase separation was not detected on the optical microscopy, light scattering, and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis because of their resolution limits: Optical microscopy has a resolution of submicrometers, whereas dynamic mechanical thermal analysis and light scattering have a resolution of ca. 50 Å. Therefore, it is speculated that in the composite films BPDA-PDA and BPDA-ODA polyimide molecules have demixed on the scale of a few nanometers. The mean long periodicity, which was estimated from the small-angle x-ray scattering pattern, varied from 134 to 170 Å as the content of BPDA-ODA component increased. In addition, mechanical properties of the composite films were characterized. ©1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Process-structure-property relationships in the formation of an elastic fiber from a melt of segmented polyester-polyether copolymers are described. The “soft” segment, polyethylene oxide, is modified to prevent its crystallization at use temperatures. Features of the polymer related to phase separation of the soft segments and the crystallizable “hard” segments are discussed. An “ideal” morphology of such a thermoplastic elastomeric fiber that would maximize its recoverable extension is defined, and a path toward its realization in a melt spinning process is described.
