    Notes: Abstract Vacuolar myelopathy (VM) and tract pallor are poorly understood spinal tract abnormalities in patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). We studied the ability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to detect these changes in spinal cord specimens postmortem and whether criteria could be formulated which would allow these conditions to be differentiated from other lesions of the spinal cord in AIDS, such as lymphoma, cytomegalovirus (CMV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) myelitis. We imaged 38 postmortem specimens of spinal cord. The MRI studies were interpreted blind. The specimens included cases of VM myelin pallor, CMV myeloradiculitis, HIV myelitis, lymphoma as well as normal cords, both HIV+ve and HIV-ve. MRI showed abnormal signal, suggestive of tract pathology, in 10 of the 14 cases with histopathological evidence of tract changes. The findings in VM and tract pallor on proton-density and T2-weighted MRI were increased signal from the affected white-matter tracts, present on multiple contiguous slices and symmetrical in most cases. The pattern was sufficiently distinct to differentiate spinal tract pathology from other spinal cord lesions in AIDS.

    Chemistry of epoxide-polycarbonate copolymer networks (1988)

    Notes: Diepoxides and in-chain carbonate groups react readily in the presence of quarternary ammonium salts, although reaction is not observed without this catalyst. Two moles of epoxide react with each mole of carbonate. When diepoxides and polycarbonates are reacted, a three-dimensional network of chains crosslinked with carbonate groups is produced; the crosslink density is controlled by adjusting the epoxy/carbonate ratio. Tertiary amines and alkoxides also catalyze the epoxy/carbonate reaction, but these have the undesirable attribute of promoting epoxy polymerization. The presence of oligocarbonates accelerates the epoxy-amine reaction.

    Notes: An epoxy resin based upon the diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A was modified with poly(bisphenol A carbonate) (PC). Prior to aromatic amine cure, the possible reactions in the epoxy resin/PC blend were investigated using GPC and FTIR techniques. It was shown that at 150°C, the epoxy resin acted as a plasticizer and promoted the crystallization of PC. In addition, a transesterification between the secondary hydroxyl groups in the epoxy resin with the carbonate groups in PC occurred. This reaction resulted in degraded PC chains with phenolic hydroxyl end groups. There was no evidence of reaction of epoxide groups at 150°C in this blend. At 200°C, the secondary hydroxyl groups acted as a catalyst converting most of the aromatic-aromatic carbonates to the aromaticndash;liphatic and aliphaticndash;aliphatic carbonates through transesterification. At this elevated temperature, the secondary hydroxyl groups were regenerated by the addition reaction between the epoxide groups and the phenolic hydroxyl end groups, either from the transesterification or the hydrolysis of PC. This addition reaction combining the PC chains and epoxy chains eventually resulted in a crosslinked polymer if the extent of reaction was high. Thus, by using a melt blending process at high temperature, e.g., 200°C, a copolymer network structure of PC-modified epoxy could be formed. The fracture toughness should be increased by increasing the capability for plastic deformation due to the incorporation of PC chains into the network; results will be reported in a future study. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Rate of electropolymerization of N,N'dimethyl acrylamide in aqueous sulfuric acid solution (1993)

    Notes: Electropolymerization of N,N-dimethylacrylamide has been performed in aqueous sulfuric acid solution, using unsized AS-4 graphite fibers as the working electrode. The electro-polymerized poly (N,N-dimethylacrylamide) deposited on the surface of the graphite fiber working electrode. The formation of poly (N,N'dimethyl acrylamide) was inhibited by hydroquinone. The addition of about 0.05 moles of hydroquinone to the reaction solution resulted in about a 90% decrease in the weight gain of fibers, in agreement with the proposed free radical mechanism of aqueous electropolymerization. The rate of electropolymerization varied with the initial monomer concentration, current density, and sulfuric acid concerntration, raised to the power of 1.3, 0.42, and 0.07, respectively, that is, Rp ∝ [M]1.3-Cd0.42 [H2SO4]0.07. A mathematical model, based upon free radical polymerization kinetics, is discussed. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Aspects of the yield behavior in poly(ethylene terephthalate) fibers (1979)

    Notes: The yield behavior during cold drawing of commercially spun poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) filament yarn was investigated. Microscopic examination revealed the presence of inherent flaws within the spun filaments; these act as points for localized stress concentration. These inhomogeneities appear to be either internal cracks or crazes developed during the fiber melt spinning process. During elongation, stress magnification at these flaws results in shear band formation, indicating the onset of inhomogeneous yielding. At the yield bend in the load-elongation curve a circumferential crack propagates within these shear band regions. This yield crack develops into the classical neck geometry which further localizes additional plastic deformation within the sample at the neck.

    Notes: Emulsion copolymerization of N-phenylmaleimide (PMI) with styrene (St) was conducted via semibatch and batch methods. The effect of monomer mixture composition and method of copolymerization on copolymer structure-property relationships was investigated. The semibatch copolymers have a homogeneous molecular structure, exhibiting a single Tg which increases linearly with increasing PMI content. The batch copolymers have a heterogeneous molecular structure, exhibiting two Tg's, assigned to the polystyrene (PSt) and poly(PMI-co-St) components. The composition drift in the batch-copolymerized product, at different conversion levels, was examined by DSC and FTIR techniques. In general, the inherent viscosity of the semibatch copolymers is lower than that of the corresponding batch ones. The Young's modulus increases for the semibatch copolymers, with increasing PMI content, while a clear trend for the batch copolymers is not found. The tensile strength tends to decrease for both types of copolymers when PMI content increases. The thermal stability increases with increasing PMI content in the copolymers. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Internal cracking and microvoids are shown to form during room temperature storage of polycarbonate samples that have previously been exposed to boiling water. These microcracks or microvoids are actually disc-shaped pockets filled with water. This formation occurs due to the creation of water super-saturation conditions by cooling water-saturated specimens from 100°C to room temperature. As a result, water phase-separation, clustering, and microvoiding result and lead to deterioration of the mechanical properties. Visual healing of the microcracks is also sometimes observed at room temperature, especially under a dry atmosphere. Water from the water-filled pockets diffuses through the polycarbonate matrix to the external dry environment; the very thin emptied pockets then close and visually heal. This paper provides experimental data for the microvoiding process and clarifies the special mechanism of cracking/healing in polycarbonate samples.

    Notes: The bond strength to aluminum of Epon 828 cured with various amounts of methylene dianiline has been investigated as a function of the resin network structure. In order to meet this objective, a torsional test for bond shear strength was developed, and fully cured resins with different network structures were prepared. The effects of the rate of loading of the joint and the aluminum surface pretreatment on the bond strength were also examined. Very high bond shear strengths, in excess of 9000 psi, were found for joints which after machining had been polished, vapor degreased, and treated with dilute sulfuric acid-potassium dichromate solution. It was found for these joints that the average bond strength decreased as the molecular weight between crosslinks increased. For the joints without acid-dichromate treatment, the failures were adhesive, and the network structure did not seem to significantly affect the bond strength. There are indications that chemical bonding occurred in the case of the acid-dichromatetreated joints; the decrease in bond strength as per cent excess amine and Mc increased is possibly associated with a decreased amount of chemical bonding. The bond strength increased to a limiting value as the rate of testing increased.
