    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Ratten erhielten 4 Wochen lang isotone Kochsalzlösung als Trinkflüssigkeit. Glomerulumfiltrat und Passagezeit von Lissamin-Grün im proximalen Tubulus blieben unverändert. Die spezifische Resorptionskapazität des Tubulusepithels — gemessen mit der „gespaltenen-Tropfen-Methode“ — nahm signifikant ab. Daraus ergab sich eine Verminderung der fraktionellen Natrium-und Wasserresorption im proximalen Tubulus von 51 auf 38% der gefilterten Menge. Die Na+-Ausscheidung stieg von 0,06 (Kontrollen) auf 1,25% der gefilterten Menge. Diese Veränderungen waren rückgängig zu machen durch Injektion von d-Aldosteron. Durch Bestimmung des TF/P-Inulin-Quotienten am Ende des proximalen Konvolutes wurden die Ergebnisse bestätigt. Es wird angenommen, daß die Resorptionshemmung im proximalen Tubulus bei chronischer Kochsalzbelastung durch verminderte Sekretion von Mineralocorticoiden bedingt und letzten Endes Ursache der vermehrten Na+-Ausscheidung ist. Ein Teil der proximalen Resorptionshemmung wird anscheinend in weiter distal gelegenen Nephron-Abschnitten kompensiert.
    Notes: Summary Rats were kept on isotonic saline as drinking fluid for a period of 4 weeks. Glomerular filtration rate and proximal transit time of Lissamine green remained unchanged. The intrinsic reabsorptive capacity of the proximal tubular epithelium—measured by the “shrinking-droplet-method”—decreased significantly. As a result, fractional proximal reabsorption of sodium and water decreased from 51 to 38 per cent of the filtered load. Sodium excretion rose from 0.06 (controls) to 1,25 per cent of the filtered load. These changes were reversible by injection of d-aldosterone. The results were confirmed by measuring the TF/P ratio of inulin at the end of the proximal convolution. The results indicate that in rats chronically loaded with salt, the inhibition of fractional proximal reabsorption is due to a decreased secretion of mineralocorticoids, and is the cause of the higher sodium excretion. Apparently, the decreased proximal reabsorption is partly compensated in more distal parts of the nephron.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Um den Einfluß des Plasmaharnstoffspiegels auf die Konzentrierfähigkeit der Niere zu untersuchen, wird der Blutkreislauf von Ratten an eine Dialysiervorrichtung angeschlossen und der Harnstoffspiegel des Blutes für 3 Std durch Dialyse gegen eine harnstoffreie Spüllösung gesenkt. Gleichzeitig wird der Harnfluß der Tiere durch eine Regelanordnung konstant gehalten. Die Regelung wird dadurch erreicht, daß dem Blutkreislauf bei zu hohem Harnfluß automatisch Flüssigkeit entzogen und bei zu niedrigem Harnfluß Flüssigkeit zugeführt wird. Es wird gefunden, daß die Harnstoffkonzentrationen im Harn linear mit dem Plasmaharnstoffspiegel abfallen bzw. ansteigen. Die Summe der Elektrolytkonzentrationen fällt dagegen mit dem Plasmaharnstoffspiegel nur wenig ab. Falls ein völliger Harnstoffentzug möglich wäre, würde auch dann noch eine Konzentrierung der Elektrolyte auf mehr als doppelt isoton möglich sein. Die Ergebnisse der Untersuchung lassen sich am einfachsten mit der Annahme interpretieren, daß in der Niere der Ratte zwei unterschiedlich arbeitende Konzentrierungsmechanismen wirksam sind, von denen der eine im wesentlichen Elektrolyte, der andere im wesentlichen Harnstoff konzentriert. Der Konzentrierungsmechanismus für Elektrolyte könnte im äußeren Mark, der für Harnstoff im inneren Mark lokalisiert sein.
    Notes: Summary To investigate the influence of plasma urea levels on the concentrating power of the kidney, the blood circulation of rats was connected to a dialyser; with dialysis against a urea-free cleaning solution, the urea level of the blood was lowered for three hours. During this, the urine flow of the animals was kept constant by a regulating arrangement. This control was achieved by removing fluid from the blood circulation in the case of too high urine flow and by putting in fluid in the case of too low urine flow. It was found that the concentration of urea in the urine had a direct linear relationship with the plasma urea level. The total electrolyte concentration fell only slightly compared to the plasma urea level falls. If the urea could have been completely removed, high concentrating of the electrolyte, to more than double isotonic, would still have been possible. The simplest way to interpret the results of this research is by the hypothesis that two different concentrating mechanisms are at work in the rat kidney, the one essentially concentrating electrolytes, and the other principally urea. The concentrating mechanism for electrolytes could be localised in the outer medulla, and for urea in the inner medulla.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Um die gegenseitige Beeinflussung von Harnstoff und NaCl bei der Bildung eines konzentrierten Harns zu untersuchen, werden Ratten 2 Tage lang NaCl-Lösungen mit wechselndem Harnstoffgehalt infundiert. Sodann werden der Harn sowie das Gewebe der Nierenrinde, des äußeren Marks und des inneren Marks auf ihren Gehalt an Kalium, Natrium und Harnstoff analysiert. Es wird gefunden, daß die Konzentrierfähigkeit der Rattenniere unter diesen Versuchsbedingungen für NaCl bei gleichzeitiger Zufuhr von Harnstoff geringer wird. In der Niere steigen NaCl und Harnstoffkonzentrationen unter allen Infusionsbedingungen von der Nierenrinde zur Nierenpapille hin an. Bei Infusion reiner NaCl-Lösungen entsprechen die NaCl- und Harnstoffkonzentrationen im Harn denen in der Papille. Bei Infusion von harnstoffhaltigen NaCl-Lösungen sind im Harn die NaCl-Konzentrationen höher und die Harnstoffkonzentrationen niedriger als im Papillengewebe. Diese Ergebnisse schließen aus, daß die hohen Harnstoffkonzentrationen im Nierenmarkgewebe durch einfache Diffusion des Harnstoffes aus den Sammelrohren in das Nierenmarkgewebe zustande kommen. Es wird die Möglichkeit diskutiert, daß die Harnstoffkonzentrierung unter den hier wiedergegebenen Versuchsbedingungen durch Gegenstromdiffusion in dem Vasa recta-System verursacht wird. Der Konzentriereffekt hierfür könnte durch einen Wasserfluß aufgrund osmotischer Kräfte von dem Blutgefäßsystem in die Henleschen Schleifen zustande kommen, wenn der Harn in den Henleschen Schleifen durch Aufnahme von NaCl, das aus den Sammelrohren stammt, hyperton wird.
    Notes: Summary To investigate the mutual interdependence of urea and sodium in producing concentrated urine, solutions of different concentrations of sodium and urea were infused into the stomach of rats. After two days' infusion, the urine and tissues from the different zones of the kidneys were analysed for sodium, potassium and urea content. It was found that the efficiency of the rat kidney in producing urine with high sodium content was diminished if urea was infused together with the sodium chloride. Under all conditions sodium and urea concentrations increased from the cortex to the papilla of the kidneys. When pure sodium chloride solutions were infused, sodium and urea concentrations in the urine were nearly equal to the corresponding concentrations in the papilla. Infusion of solutions containing NaCl and urea caused production of urine with a higher sodium concentration and lower urea concentration than in the papilla. These results show that the high concentration of urea in the medulla of the kidney does not arise by passives diffusion of urea from the collecting ducts into the medullary tissue. The possibility that the concentration of urea in the inner medulla is produced by counter current diffusion of urea in the vasa recta is discussed. The concentration effect necessary for this counter current multiplication could be created by an osmotic flow of water from the vasa recta into loops of Henle, if the urine in the loops becomes hypertonic by taking up sodium chloride from the collecting ducts.

    Notes: Summary Light- and electronmicroscopic evaluation of proximal convolutions of the rat kidney were made following injection with either mineral oil or castor oil. The following observations were made: 1. Injection of mineral oil does not result in a complete blockade of the tubular lumen and leads to morphological lesions of epithelial cells. 2. Injection of the more viscous castor oil, in contrast, leads to a dilatation of the tubular lumen and a compression of the brush border of proximal tubular cells. Thus a better blockade of longitudinal flow is achieved. A toxic effect of castor oil on the tubular epithelium could not be detected. Mechanical lesions, similar to those observed after mineral oil injection, were less frequent. They consisted in a penetration of oil into the cells, perhaps as consequence of the tubular dilatation. 3. In oil-injected proximal tubular segments the following cytologic phenomena were observed: a) a cessation of the normal pinocytosis, which is induced in the presence of tubular fluid, b) simultaneously the “large resorption vacuoles” disappear, indicating that they originate from confluence of pinocytotic vesicles, c) in dilated tubules protein resorption vacuoles are found to have ruptured towards the tubular lumen suggesting a high hydrostatic pressure within the vacuoles.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung 4 Wochen nach Klammerung einer Nierenarterie war der Perfusionsdruck der geklammerten Niere normal, während der arterielle Mitteldruck auf 188 mm Hg angestiegen war. Die Ausscheidung von Natrium und Wasser im Harn der geklammerten Niere war normal, im Harn der ungeklammerten Niere erheblich höher als normal. Glomerulumfiltrat (pro g Niere), intratubulärer Druck, Tubulusweite, Passagezeit von Lissamingrün und die fraktionelle Resorption von Natrium und Wasser waren im proximalen Tubulus sowohl in der geklammerten wie in der ungeklammerten Niere normal. In der ungeklammerten Niere war die Passagezeit durch die Henlesche Schleife stark verkürzt und die Resorption von Natrium und Wasser in der Schleife erheblich vermindert. Diese Veränderungen — obwohl zum Teil kompensiert durch vermehrte Resorption im distalen Tubulus und im Sammelrohr — sind verantwortlich für die höhere Wasser- und Natriumausscheidung der ungeklammerten Niere. Die Ursache ist wahrscheinlich eine stärkere Durchblutung des Nierenmarkes. Im Nephron der geklammerten Niere war die fraktionelle Natrium- und Wasserresorption nicht signifikant von normalen Werten verschieden mit der Ausnahme einer niedrigeren Natriumresorption im distalen Tubulus und einer höheren Natriumresorption im Sammelrohr. Der Natrium-Transport im distalen Tubulus ist anscheinend gestört; TF/P−Na+ betrug im Mittel 0,6 bis zum Ende des distalen Tubulus. Die Ergebnisse können die unterschiedliche Harnausscheidung erklären, die beim Hypertoniker mit einseitiger Nierenarterienstenose beobachtet wird (Howard-Test).
    Notes: Summary Four weeks after clamping one renal artery, the perfusion pressure of the clamped kidney was normal whereas the mean arterial pressure had increased to 188 mm Hg. Urinary excretion of sodium and water of the clamped kidney had not changed while that of the untouched kidney increased considerably. Glomerular filtration rate (per g kidney), intratubular pressure, tubular diameter, transit time of Lissamine green and fractional sodium and water reabsorption of the proximal tubule were normal in both the clamped and the untouched kidney. In the untouched kidney, the transit time through Henle's loop was shortened and the sodium and water reabsorption in it was significantly reduced. These changes, although partly compensated by higher reabsorption in the distal tubule and collecting duct, are responsible for the increased sodium and water excretion of the untouched kidney. They are probably due to an increased medullary blood flow. In the clamped kidney, fractional sodium and water reabsorption of the whole nephron did not differ significantly from normal values. However, sodium reabsorption was lower in the distal tubule and higher in the collecting duct. Sodium transport in the distal tubule seemed to be impaired; throughout its length sodium TF/P ratio averaged 0.6. These results may explain the different urinary excretion found in human hypertension following unilateral renal artery stenosis (Howard-Test).

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Durch artifizielle osmotische Druckdifferenzen von 150 mOsmol/l zwischen Lumen- und Blutseite der Tubulusepithelien von Rana ridibunda wird Flüssigkeit im Richtungssinne der Reabsorption oder — in geringerem Maße — der Sekretion längs des osmotischen Gradienten bewegt. Na+ wird in jedem Fall „trocken” reabsorbiert. Bei mit Furosemid blockiertem aktiven Na+-Transport läuft isoton Flüssigkeit längs des osmotischen Gradienten aus dem Tubuluslumen in das blutseitige Medium. Bei umgekehrt gerichtetem Gradienten wird das Filtrat so verändert, als ob es durch Einstrom reinen Wassers verdünnt würde. Die Tubulusepithelien verhalten sich so, als besäßen sie — im Zustand des blockierten aktiven Na+-Transportes — ein „Rückschlagventil” für Na+. Wenn der osmotische Gradient so gerichtet ist, daß Wasser oder Flüssigkeit aus dem Lumen in das blutseitige Medium läuft, dann kommt es bei umgekehrt gerichtetem Na+-Konzentrationsgradienten nicht zum Einstrom von Na+ in das Tubuluslumen. Die Na+-Harnkonzentration sinkt beträchtlich unter die des Perfusates, was als Ausdruck einer Na+-Reabsorption gegen den Konzentrationsgradienten gedeutet wird. Bei Blockierung des Na+-Transportes durch Furosemid kommt es wiederum zum Einstrom reinen Wassers in die Tubuluslumina. Die Versuche mit durch Furosemid blockiertem Na+-Transportmechanismus sind beweisend, daß die Tubuli für Na+ im Richtungssinne der Sekretion impermeabel sind. Die „Verdünnung” des Tubulusinhaltes durch einen osmotischen Gradienten, der Wasser in die Tubuli hineinlaufen läßt, kommt also nicht durch ein Überwiegen der Reabsorption über die „Sekretion” zustande. Wird statt des leicht penetrierenden Na-Chlorids das schwer penetrierende Natriumcyclohexansulfamat angeboten, dann wird absolut gegenüber den Versuchen mit Na-Chlorid weniger Na+ transportiert. Im übrigen zeigen die Nieren jedoch das gleiche Verhalten wie bei Angebot von Na-Chlorid.
    Notes: Summary Osmotic gradients of 150 mosmol/l between intratubular fluid and blood in the kidney of Rana ridibunda induce a fluid movement down the osmotic gradient which is stronger into the tubule than out of it. In either case Na+ is reabsorbed “dry”. If the active Na+-transport is blocked by Furosemid an osmotically downhill movement of isotonic fluid out of the tubule obtains. Reversal of the osmotic gradient induces a reversal of flow but the inward moving fluid is diluted. The tubular cells seem to inhibit the backwash of Na+. If the osmotic gradient induces an outflow of fluid out of the tubule no influx of Na+ occurs even in the presence of a concentration gradient for Na+ in the opposite direction. The Na+-concentration in the urine falls considerably below that of the perfusion fluid. This finding indicates Na+-reabsorption against a concentration gradient. Upon blocking of the Na+-transport by Furosemid water enters the tubules. The results of the experiments in which the Na+-transport was blocked by Furosemid prove that the tubules are impermeable for Na+ in the direction of secretion. The “dilution” of the tubular fluid as a result of an osmotic gradient which induces an influx of water isnot due to a reabsorption outbalancing “secretion”. If instead of the easily penetrating NaCl the slowly penetrating Na+-cyclohexanesulphamate is used, less Na+ is transported. However, in every other respect the results obtained are similar to those described above.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Vier Wochen nach Klammerung einer Nierenarterie wurde die Funktion des distalen Tubulus untersucht. In der ungeklammerten, unter dem hohen Blutdruck stehenden Niere blieb die Tubulusflüssigkeit bis 90% distaler Tubuluslänge hypoton. Dies wird auf eine erhöhten Flüssigkeitseinstrom aus der Henleschen Schleife zurückgeführt; eine verminderte Wasserpermeabilität des distalen Tubulus konnte nicht nachgewiesen werden. In der geklammerten Niere war mit Ausnahme des frühdistalen Abschnittes die Natriumkonzentration on jeder Stelle des distalen Konvolutes signifikant höher als in der ungeklammerten Niere und in Kontrollnieren. Auch fehlte im distalen Tubulus der geklammerten Niere eine Nettokaliumsekretion. die distale Gleichgewichtskonzentration für Natrium war auf der geklammerten Seite erhöht, auf der ungeklammerten Seite normal. Der isotone Natriumausstrom (Methode des gespaltenen Tropfens) war in der geklammerten Niere vermindert, in der ungeklammerten Niere erhöht. Die frühdistale Harnstoffkonzentration war in der ungeklammerten Niere gegenüber der geklammerten Niere und Nieren von Kontrollratten erniedrigt. Spätdistal war TF/P-Harnstoff in beiden Nieren gleich. Beide Nieren hatten ein normales Glomerulumfiltrat und normale tubuläre Passagezeiten mit Ausnahme einer verkürzten Schleifenzeit in der ungeklammerten Niere. Die Befunde werden dahingehend interpretiert, daß der aktive Natriumtransport im distalen Tubulus der beiden Nieren voneinander verschieden ist, möglicherweise infolge des unterschiedlichen Reningehaltes der beiden Nieren.
    Notes: Summary Four weeks after constricting one renal artery distal tubular function was studied using the micropuncture technique. In the untouched kidney tubular fluid remained hypotonic up to 90% distal tubular length. We believe this to be the result of the high inflow of tubular fluid from Henle's loop. A reduced permeability for water could not be demonstrated. Except for the early part of the distal tubule there was a marked increase in sodium concentration in the clamped kidney as compared to values obtained in the untouched one and in kindneys of control animals. In addition no potassium secretion could be observed in the clamped kidney. The distal steadystate concentration for sodium was increased in the clamped kidney and normal in the untouched one. Reabsorptive half-time, measured by the split droplet technique, was prolonged in the clamped kidney and shortened in the untouched one. Early distal urea concentration was lower in the untouched kidney than in the clamped one and in control kidneys, while at the end of the distal tubule urea concentrations did not differ significantly. Both kidneys had normal glomerular filtration rates and proximal tubular transit times, whereas a shortened transit time through Henle's loop of the untouched kidney was found. The results indicate that active sodium transport in the distal tubule of the clamped kidney differs from that of the untouched one, possibly due to the different renin concentration in both kidneys.

    Notes: Summary At different times after injection into the renal artery of131I-albumin, the distribution of the tracer in kidneys of the rabbit and the dog was illustrated by a series of autoradiograms. In order to determine the mean circulation time for albumin in the kidney, the radioactivity over the kidney was simultaneously registered by external monitoring. A short mean circulation time was measured for albumin (plasma) passing cortex, and a longer one for that fraction of the albumin that passed through medulla, papillae, and capsule. The investigation rendered probable that the mean circulation time for blood through the kidney determined by the external technique applies to blood passing cortex. The circulation times for blood through medulla, papillae, and capsule are not included in the calculation of the mean circulation time.

Daraus kann geschlossen werden, daß in Hundenieren die proximalen Tubuluszellen wohl 18-Aldosteronglucuronid aus Aldosteron bilden und an das Tubuluslumen abgeben, während im Nierenarterienblut vorhandenes 18-Aldosteronglucuronid nur glomerulär filtriert und ausgeschieden wird.
    Notes: Summary In stop flow experiments during infusion of 1,2-3H-18-aldosterone glucuronide there was no proximal tubular secretion of this metabolite in contrary to experiments during infusion of 1,2-3H-aldosterone. The discrepancy must be explained by formation of 1,2-3H-aldosterone glucuronide out of3H-aldosterone in proximal tubular cells, while the 1,2-3H-18-aldosterone glucuronide in the plasma of the renal artery blood is only filtered in the glomerulum.

Das im Blutplasma vorhandene 1,2-3H-18-Aldosteronglucuronid wird nur glomerular filtriert. 2. Die renale Clearance von 18-Aldosteronglucuronid, die etwa das Fünffache der Inulinclearance beträgt [13, 15], mu\ zu vier Fünfteln auf Bildung von 18-Aldosteronglucuronid durch die proximalen [15] Tubuluszellen zurückgeführt werden. 3. Das Ausma\ der renalen Bildung von 18-Aldosteronglucuronid liegt in einer Grö\enordnung von 80% der Gesamtmenge 18-Aldosteronglucuronid im 24 StdUrin.
    Notes: Summary After an intravenous injection of 1,2-3H-aldosterone the ratios of 1,23H-tetrahydroaldosterone glucuronide to 1,2-3H-aldosterone glucuronide in the blood plasma of three normal and two nephrectomized persons were compared. In the three normal persons the ratios were of the same magnitude as in the two nephrectomized persons. On the basis of glomerular filtration of tetrahydroaldosterone glucuronide, as previously demonstrated by renal clearance studies in man [13, 15] and stop flow experiments in dogs [6], we made the following deductions: 1. 18aldosterone glucuronide in blood plasma is only filtered in the glomerulum. 2. The renal clearance of 18-aldosterone glucuronide, as investigated during aldosterone infusion in man [13, 15], therefore must be explained by glomerular filtration of only one fifth and by formation of four fifth of 18-aldosterone glucuronide by proximal [15] tubular cells. 3. This means that about 80% of 18-aldosterone glucuronide excreted in urine is formed by the kidneys.

    Notes: From the sedimentation-diffusion equilibria of some polymer solutions the average molecular weights M̄n, M̄w, M̄z, and M̄z+1 have been determined in different ways. In particular, the applicability of Fujita's method, which utilizes concentration gradient values at the midpoint of the solution column at a number of rotor speeds, was examined. It appears that if the gradients at some other places in the column are also used, a smaller range of rotor speeds suffices. This method is generally applicable for determining the average molecular weights specified above.

    Notes: The viscoelastic properties of monodisperse poly-α-methylstyrenes of molecular weights of 4 × 104 to 50 × 104 were studied by the tensile stress-relaxation method. The relaxation-time spectra as well as the steady-flow viscosity, the steady-state compliance, the maximum relaxation time, and the modulus associated with the maximum relaxation time were determined. The molecular weight dependences of these quantities were compared with the theory of Rouse and Bueche as modified by Ferry, Landel, and Williams, as well as with data on other polymers reported in the literature.

    Notes: The morphological character of the surface region of polyethylene has been considered with respect to adhesion and adhesive joint strength. By melting polyethylene onto a high-energy surface (e.g., aluminum) we have provided for extensive nucleation and the formation of a transcrystalline region in the polymer. Dissolution of the metal rather than peeling the metal from the polymer leaves the surface region of the polymer intact. The polymer sheet is now amenable to conventional adhesive bonding and forms a strong adhesive joint. We conclude from this study that the occurrence of the normal weak boundary layer is a consequence of the morphology of the surface region of the material and is, therefore, influenced by the method of preparation.

    Notes: Molecular structures of chlorinated poly(vinyl chloride) and polybutadiene have been studied by high resolution NMR. The spectra of the chlorinated polymers give broad signals. New peaks appear in the lower fields of the —CH2— and —CHCl— groups with increasing chlorine content. The chlorination of poly(vinyl chloride) takes place predominantly on —CH2— rather than on —CHCl—, e.g., a 70% chlorinated polymer has about 10 mole-% of —CCl2— groups. Polybutadiene reacts first with chlorine by addition to give a head-to-head poly(vinyl chloride), and then the substitution of the hydrogen atom takes place. Chlorinated polybutadiene with 70% Cl has about 18 mole-% of —CCl2—. The multiplets characteristic of spin-spin couplings in the spectrum of the original poly(vinyl chloride) are still observed in that of the highly chlorinated product. This fact shows that a considerable number of poly(vinyl chloride) sequences of certain lengths persist in the highly chlorinated polymer.

    Notes: For polyethylene fibers, orientation parameters of the form 〈cos2 φ〉 were calculated from traces obtained with an x-ray diffractometer equipped with an orientation integrator. The angle φ is that which a crystal or molecular axis makes with the fiber axis. Traces over a continuous range of diffraction angle were obtained for (2/π)Iav, and also the weighted averages (2/π)Iav 〈cos2φ〉 and (2/π)Iav 〈sin2φ〉, where Iav is the intensity averaged over all orientations. The orientation for the crystal a, b, and c axes were determined from area measurements of the {110} and {200} lines, and the orientation parameter for the molecular axis in the amorphous phase was determined from area measurements of the amorphous halos. An undrawn fiber showed a slight a and c axis orientation along the fiber axis, and a slight transverse orientation of the b axis and the molecular axis. For a highly drawn fiber the orientation parameter for the c axis was 0.98 and for the molecular axis 0.65. The degree of crystallinity, measured from the (2/π)Iav versus 2θ traces, were 66.1% and 73.3% for the undrawn and drawn fiber, respectively.

    Notes: Complete fractionations into 5, 10, and 20 fractions were calculated by a numerical method based on the Flory-Huggins theory in order to evaluate various procedures for determining the molecular weight distribution from fractionation data. If the initial distributions are wide, the differential distribution cannot be accurately reconstructed, not even if each fraction is characterized by two average molecular weights (instead of one, as is customary). In addition to this inadequacy in the evaluation procedure there are the experimental errors which further detract from the accuracy of the result. The integral distribution can, in some cases, be approximated fairly well by means of the Schulz method, provided that the polymer is separated into many fractions with narrow distributions. However, the integral distribution thus obtained does not reflect details in the differential distribution. Polymer fractionation does not appear to be a suitable procedure for accurate determination of the differential distribution. From the assembled material, a thermodynamic method has been derived which seems to hold out better prospects. It should enable the differential distribution to be directly determined from a detailed analysis of the liquid-liquid phase relationships, provided the free energy of mixing function of the system is known.

    Notes: The conductivity of dry poly(hexamethylene adipamide) (nylon 66) was measured as a function of time and temperature. Three temperature ranges were observed in which the time dependence of conductivity differed: (a) below 80°C. the conductivity decreased continuously with time; (b) between 80°C. and 110°C. the conductivity remained constant over long periods; (c) above 120°C. a continuous decrease in conductivity was again observed. In other experiments the volume of gas evolved from the nylon film was measured under continuous potential and compared with the total current passed through the sample. It was observed that above 120°C. the gas evolved corresponded to about one-half the volume calculated if the conduction process involved only protons. Below 120°C. the gas evolved corresponded to an increasingly small fraction of the total current until below 90°C. no evolution of gas was observed. This suggests that at temperatures above 120°C. conduction involves the transport of both protons and electrons, whereas at lower temperatures it is electronic. Mechanisms of conduction are discussed.

    Notes: Acid hydrolysis of a stereoblock poly(methyl methacrylate) sample leads to a mixture of isotactic and syndiotactic poly(methacrylic acid) which can be separated by electrophoresis. The experiment confirms the stereochemical identity between the so-called “stereoblock” poly(methyl methacrylate) and the stereocomplex which syndiotactic and isotactic poly(methyl methacrylate) form in the ratio 2:1. A possible mechanism of replica polymerization is suggested to account for this effect.

    Notes: The electrical conductivities in vacuo of poly(ethylene oxide) and two higher olefin oxide polymers have been found to be ∼9 orders higher than for other saturated organic polymers. The possibility of ionic transport resulting from the presence of impurities (including water) has been eliminated, and it is proposed that an inherent ionic process is operative, involving the generation of protons and then subsequent transport by a handing-on process. The two general requirements are the presence of proton-accepting atoms (in this case oxygen) in the polymer chains; and proximity to the melting point to ensure adequate chain-mobility. These requirements are met by poly(ethylene oxide), poly(trimethylene oxide), and poly(tetramethylene oxide), which are all close to their melting points at room temperature. poly(methylene oxide), with a melting point of ∼180°C., on the other hand, has the low conductivity of a typical insulator.

On the basis of the mechanical damping data of these polymers, it was established that the shortest polymethylene segment to show the -125°C. γ dispersion, characteristic of polyethylene, must consist of at least five carbon atoms.

    Notes: The theta temperature of poly-α-methylstyrene in cyclohexane has been found to vary with the stereostructure of the polymer. The observed values range from 305.5°K. for highly syndiotactic material (0.95 syndiotactic diads) to 310.0°K. for anio ically polymerized samples (0.67 syndiotactic diads). Results indicate that the unperturbed dimensions of the polymer increase with increasing isotacticity of the chain, whereas the entropy parameter ψ1, measured in cyclohexane, decreased as the structure became more isotactic. Measurements of the second virial coefficient in toluene showed an increasing interaction with the solvent as the polymer became more syndiotactic.

    Notes: At present the widely used model for explaining viscoelastic and dielectric properties of polymer solutions is that of Rouse and Bueche. Here the polymer molecule is considered as an array of Gaussian subunits, each of which acts as an entropy spring. The motion of these segments is damped by the viscous drag of the surrounding solvent (RB model). An alternative model is presented, in which the segments are torsional oscillators consisting of two or three backbone links, and the damping is due to hindered internal rotation (DTO model). The mathematical treatment of these two models is essentially identical, but the physical interpretation of the constants used is very different. The DTO model has previously been applied by one of us to the interpretation of viscoelastic data. It is here applied to the interpretation of dielectric loss data. It is shown that dielectric measurements in dilute solution should very readily discriminate between the two approaches. Finally it is shown that the relaxation time computed from the DTO model is in closer agreement with published NMR data on poly(propylene oxide) 2025, than is the RB relaxation time. The postulates of the DTO model appear to be confirmed for this low molecular weight polymer. An even more sensitive distinction should be available by studies of the relaxation time as a function of polymer concentration.

    Notes: The incorporation of comonomers bearing functional groups yields butadiene copolymers capable of hydrogen bonding. Three such butadiene-based materials were studied: methacrylic acid copolymers, 2-methyl-5-vinylpyridine copolymers, and stoichiometric mixtures of the acidic and basic copolymers. The elastic effects of intermolecular hydrogen bonding were determined by comparing the simple weighted average of the moduli of the parent copolymers with the observed modulus of their stoichiometric mixture. The results show that measurable increases in the moduli of the mixtures persist even above the glass temperature Tg, which is itself elevated in the mixtures. These increases may be treated as temperature-dependent temporary crosslinks.

    Notes: Styrene and maleic anhydride were copolymerized in benzene. The whole polymer thus obtained was fractionated with acetone and petroleum ether as the solvent and precipitant, respectively. The viscosities and osmotic pressures of the fractions were determined in tetrahydrofuran. The relation between the intrinsic viscosity and the molecular weight, [η] = 5.07 × 10-5 M̄n0.81, was obtained in tetrahydrofuran. The unperturbed mean square end-to-end distance was estimated by the Stockmayer-Fixman equation. A theoretical equation for the mean square end-to-end distance for a chain of repeating units of different bond lengths a and b with a fixed valence angle θ and without restriction of internal rotation was presented and applied to this copolymer. In addition, the equation of the mean-square end-to-end distance derived by Wall for trans-polyisoprene without rotational restriction was modified for application to this copolymer. The result evaluated with our equation was about 26% smaller than that from the modified Wall equation. A steric parameter for the present copolymer is defined and discussed in comparison with those of polystyrenesulfone and polystyrene.

    Notes: Measurements have been made of the anisotropy of viscoelastic behavior in cold-drawn low-density and high-density polyethylene sheets. In the low-density polymer the β transition was shown to be highly anisotropic, maximum losses corresponding to shear on planes containing the axis of drawing and on planes perpendicular to this axis. In high-density polyethylene the α transition shows anisotropy.

    Notes: The thermodynamic properties of crystalline and amorphous poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene ether) (PPORegistered trademark of General Electric Company. polymer, General Electric Co.) have been studied calorimetrically between 80 and 570°K. The calculated configurational entropy of this polymer, of similar magnitude to other glass-forming liquids, is consistent with the combination of an unusually high ratio of Tg/Tm, and a low melting entropy.

    Notes: A method for the theoretical analysis of branching in radical polymerization is presented which includes the dynamics of the process. In particular, the method is applied to a polymerization that occurs by decomposition of initiator, propagation, termination by radical combination, and chain transfer with polymer. By a numerical solution of the kinetic equations (suitably transformed), the time dependence of the number-average degree of polymerization (DP), the weight-average DP, the mean number of branches, and the monomer conversion are obtained. The parameters of the process, that is the rate coefficients and initial concentrations, have the following effects: (1) An increase in the chain transfer coefficient increases the ratio of weight-average to number-average Xw/Xn and the mean number of branches Xb, but does not change the number-average Xn. (2) For a given value of the chain transfer coefficient, a change in the parameters of the process such that Xn increases, causes Xw/Xn and Xb to increase also. (3) Chain transfer with polymer seems to produce relatively few polymer molecules having many branches and a large number of smaller polymer molecules having no branches; consequently, the polymer size (or molecular weight) distribution broadens.

    Notes: Extended chain crystals of polyoxymethylene were irradiated with x-rays of about 105 r./min. An immediate decrease in superheating on melting was noted. After 90 min. of irradiation the melting point level, refractive indices, and density also decreased. After 480 min. the DTA melting peak at a heating rate of 20°C./min. had decreased 25°C., the melting point decreased about 18°C., and the density calculated from refractive indices decreased 0.031 g./cm.-3. These effects are interpreted as indication of chain scission and formation of amorphous defects.

The validity of various theoretical interrelations between the measured quantities is checked. The influence of molecular weight distribution is qualitatively discussed.

    Notes: The mechanical lability of intermolecular hydrogen bonds in stoichiometric mixtures of acidic and basic butadiene copolymers has been studied by both infrared and mechanical methods. Comparison is made between the weight-averaged E(t) and H(τ) spectra of the parent copolymers and those of the mixed copolymers. The results indicate that the maximum contributions of bond-interchange relaxation migrate to shorter times as the concentration of bonding groups increases.

    Notes: The mechanical lability of quadrupolar links in cationic and anionic polyelectrolytes and of ion-pair links in mixed polyelectrolytes is investigated in terms of deviations from the WLF viscoelastic theory. The behavior of E(t), log AT, and Evisc indicate that the quadrupolar links do not interchange below the second transition Tt* found in these materials. The blended polyelectrolytes exhibit low yields of the desired ion pair linking and have transitions characteristic of quadrupolar migration of the unreacted polyelectrolytes.

    Notes: A series of well-characterized polyamic acids from pyromellitic dianhydride and 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether of systematically varied molecular weight and known molecular weight distribution were chemically converted to polyimide films under regulated conditions. The films were essentially noncrystalline, of moderate orientation, and soluble in concentrated sulfuric acid. The mechanical properties of the films varied sigmoidally with the solution properties of the precursor. Molecular weights were derived for the onset of mechanical strength and limiting property values are given. The relations between film properties and molecular structural parameters suggest that cyclization probably occurs here with little contribution from crosslinking, degradation, or other side reactions which would appreciably alter molecular weight and molecular weight distribution.

    Notes: Gum arabic was found to have an osmotic molecular weight of 250,000, in agreement with earlier determinations. A molecular weight of 365,000 was found by light scattering, somewhat higher than obtained earlier by sedimentation equilibrium analysis but lower than light-scattering values reported by other investigators. The M̄w/Mn ratio, 1.46, is quite low in gum arabic. The angular dependence of light scattering exhibited the upward curvature to be expected of a spherical molecule and a radius of gyration of about 100 A. or less, as estimated from a Zimm plot. Fractionation of the original gum arabic was done by precipitation of a 0.5% solution in aqueous 0.5% NaCl with acetone. Comparison of the curves of viscosity versus molecular weight and the estimated radius of gyration shows that the hydrodynamic volume is less than that of branched dextran of similar molecular weight. The electroviscous effects for gum arabic in aqueous solution were shown by reduced viscosity curves at various acidities and in salt. The degree of dissociation was calculated for each pH level. The minimum intrinsic viscosity was found in 0.04N HCl where the degree of dissociation at pH 1.5 was found to be 0.049. When the acidity was increased, further reduction in viscosity was found to be negligible. Routine determination of the viscosity and molecular weight of the fractions was done in 0.35M NaCl at pH 10 to which 0.25% of the sodium salt of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid was added as a sequestrant. The intrinsic viscosity in this solvent was nearly as low as in 0.04N HCl. Light-scattering dissymmetries in water and in 0.35M NaCl plus EDTA at pH 10 were similar, 1.13 and 1.09, respectively, which showed that actual expansion of the macroion is not the cause of the large increase in viscosity of gum arabic when the ionic strength of the solvent is reduced. Periodate oxidation of the polymer confirmed the existence of a 1-3-linked backbone of galactose. Subsequent treatment of the oxidized polymer with alkali reduced the osmotic molecular weight to 45,000 but failed to remove oxidized side branches. The oxidized polymer was fractionated by gel permeation chromatography and the intrinsie viscosity-molecular weight relation compared with relations for fractions of the unoxidized polymer and for other branched and crosslinked polymers.

    Notes: The energy component of the stress has been determined for poly(vinyl alcohol) networks in swelling equilibrium with a series of water-ethylene glycol compositions. The data are analyzed by using the equations describing the thermoelasticity of networks in swelling equilibrium. The ratio fe/f of the energy component to the total force, as calculated from these equations, varies systematically with diluent composition but is independent of elongation in a given diluent. For a network crosslinked by terephthalaldehyde, fe/f varied from -0.33 to -0.42 as the diluent composition was changed from pure water to 20% ethylene glycol. Similar effects were found in a network crosslinked by formaldehyde. It is not yet certain whether this effect represents a real solvent dependence of fe/f or a failure of the equation of state to account for the effect of composition changes on the force.

    Notes: Stress-induced crystallization in a rapidly stretched natural rubber gum vulcanizate has been studied using thermal techniques to follow the development of crystallinity. A special-purpose analog computer has been assembled and used on-line to process the thermal and mechanical data obtained in high speed tensile testing. Roughly first-order room temperature crystallization kinetics curves were obtained having time constants of 50-60 msec in the range of 400-540% extension. While the rate of this rapid, presumably primary crystallization appears rather insensitive to elongation in this limited range, the extent of crystallization at 400 msec increases smoothly from zero at 340% elongation to around 18% at 540% elongation. It is shown that our high-speed tensile tester can stretch this vulcanizate fast enough that most of the crystallization takes place after extension has been completed. Stress-strain curves obtained at this high rate are compared with those obtained at lower rates where crystallization takes place during the stretching.

    Notes: Experimental evidence concerning the dependence of the intrinsic viscosity [η] on molecular weight M in the low molecular weight range (from oligomers to M = 5 × 104) has been collected in a variety of solvents for about ten polymers, i.e., polyethylene, poly(ethylene oxide), poly(propylene oxide), polydimethylsiloxane, polyisobutylene, poly(vinylacetate), poly(methyl methacrylate), polystyrene, poly-α-methylstyrene, and some cellulose derivatives. In theta solvents, the constancy of the ratio [η]Θ/M0.5 extends down to values of M much lower than those predicted by current hydrodynamic theories. In good solvents, and on decreasing M, the polymers examined, with the exception of polyethylene and some cellulose derivatives, show a decrease in the exponent a of the Mark-Houwink equation [η] = KMa. This upward curvature gives rise to the existence of a more or less extended linear region where the equation [η] = K0M0.5 is obeyed. Below the linear range, i.e., for even shorter chains, the exponent a can increase, i.e., polydimethylsiloxane, or decrease below 0.5, i.e., poly(ethylene oxide), depending on the particular chain properties. These different dependences have been discussed in terms of: (a) variations of thermodynamic interactions with molecular weight; (b) variations of conformational characteristics (as for instance the ratio) 〈r02/nl2〉, where 〈r02〉 is the unperturbed mean square end-to-end distance and n is the number of bonds each of length l; (c) hydrodynamic properties of short chains.

    Notes: It is predicted that the net repulsion between the segments of a polymer network and a poor solvent can cause a phase transition marked by a sudden change in the degree of swelling. This is analogous to the “coil-globule” transition recently predicted by Ptitsyn to occur for a macromolecule in solution. The critical conditions for the transition. as well as phase diagrams, are calculated for the gel in free swelling and under uniaxial tension, which facilitates the transition. The transition depends on the gel being formed of chains crosslinked while greatly swollen by a diluent and also having a high degree of crosslinking. It is concluded that it would be difficult to attain the conditions necessary for the transition in the free-swelling case, but that it should be possible for gel under tension.

    Notes: Morphology and crystal structure of solution-grown and melt-grown crystals of thermally decomposed polypropylene have been studied by electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction. By crystallization from dilute α-chloronaphthalene or carbitol solutions well-defined lamellar crystals about 100-150 A. in thickness are obtained from fractions (number-average molecular weights 1600-2100) of thermally decomposed crystalline polypropylene. The structure is monoclinic as crystallized from very dilute α-chloronaphthalene or carbitol solutions (0.02-0.005 wt.-%). However crystals of the triclinic as well as of the monoclinic forms are precipitated from carbitol solutions of higher concentrations (0.05-1 wt.-%). On the other hand, the separated triclinic form has been obtained from the melt. Crystals of both modifications have similar morphology. In addition, the chain molecules cannot be expected to fold, within the thickness of lamellae in crystals of either modification prepared from the low molecular weight fractions used in this study.

    Notes: With low-shear mixing, a portion of a high molecular weight poly(DMVPMS) is immediately adsorbed, and fairly stable aggregates are formed by the polymer bridging mechanism. The adsorption equilibrium is not established after several weeks because of a very slow liberation of the partly covered surface that is trapped within the aggregates. At a high ionic strength, or when the polymer is degraded to a low molecular weight, the adsorption equilibrium is quickly established because of a weaker bridging in the aggregates. It is proposed that poly(DMVPMS) adsorbs from water in a flattened conformation by an ion exchange mechanism. The saturation level increases and then becomes constant as the ionic strength is increased. Simple electrolytes show a specific effect on the adsorption of poly(DMVPMS) that is analogous to their effect on the interaction of other colloidal particles.

    Notes: The low-angle light scattering by films of stretched natural and synthetic rubbers was investigated. Intense Vv scattering is found under conditions when crystallization occurs which is characteristic of the scattering from aggregates of dimensions comparable with the wavelength of visible light. These were identified with the γ fibrils described by Andrews. The dependence of scattering was studied as a function of light polarization direction, orientation direction, elongation, temperature, degree of swelling, type of swelling liquid, and degree of crosslinking. It was concluded that the scattering unit consists of an assembly of crystals with their chain axes parallel to the stretching direction, but (in the case of natural rubber at high elongations) with the fibril axis at a slight angle to the stretching direction. The scattering is not affected much by swelling but is decreased upon increasing the temperature. Upon recooling the scattering returns, but does so over several hours, indicating that much of the scattering arises from secondary crystallization.

    Notes: Thermodynamic interactions between arbitrarily branched flexible “comb” molecules (with branches of uniform length affixed to backbones of uniform length but with the number of branches on a molecule and their placement arbitrary) are treated by Zimm's perturbation method to obtain results valid to the double contact approximation. Thus, bimolecular cluster configurations with one and two intermolecular contacts, but not more, are correctly accounted for. This general result is applied to “random” combs (with the number of branches per comb uniform, but the placement random) and to “heterogeneous” combs (with both the number of branches on a molecule and their placement random). Results for the random combs are very similar to those reported earlier for “symmetrical” combs (with f uniform branches disposed at points along the backbone chain so as to subdivide it into f + 1 equal sections), but the second virial coefficient for the random model is slightly the larger when the number of branches per chain is small and the fraction of the molecule in the backbone is at least a few per cent. Since random combs are uniform in mass, the osmotic pressure and light-scattering second virial coefficients are alike; but for a system of heterogeneous combs the virial coefficients differ from one another, and from the random comb result, when the mean number of branches f̄ per chain is small and they are of appreciable length in comparison to the backbone. This behavior reflects the heterogeneity in both molecular mass and dimensions existing under these circumstances. As f̄ increases and/or the mean fraction of segments in the chain backbone becomes large, coincidence with the random comb result is approached. The double-contact second virial coefficients for both random and heterogeneous combs are obtained in closed analytical expression that are much more easily reduced to numerical results than the expression for symmetrical combs given earlier. These two models also correspond better than the symmetrical combs to materials actually obtainable.

    Notes: A simple statistical thermodynamic argument is presented in which the probability of intramolecular chain folding of normal paraffins and polyethylene in solution is examined. This possibility is based on the existence of low-energy intramolecular conformations which are stable enough to overcome the tendency of a chain molecule to assume a random arrangement in solution. Some rough estimates of the magnitudes of energetic interaction in straight-chain hydrocarbons are made to demonstrate the plausibility of this hypothesis. The experimental support for this model arises from NMR spectra of normal paraffins in aromatic hydrocarbon solvents.

    Notes: A stepwise segment-by-segment cluster development of the interaction energy of two polymer coils at given distance leads to a closed expression, describing the second virial coefficient A2 in terms of certain intersegmental contact probabilities. An approximate expression for A2(α,z) in good solvents is then derived by using the uniform segment cloud model; the result being equivalent to that obtained by Flory. This expression is combined with the author's theory for α2(z) to give A2(z), and then with a subsequent adaptation of that theory to polyelectrolytes, to derive the dependence of A2 on ionic strength. The α2(z) and A2(z) equations are both compared with recently reported experimental data for NaPSS.

    Notes: Isotactic and atactic poly(methyl methacrylate) containing varying amounts of polymerization initiator and chain-transfer additives, and carefully purified radiation-polymerized material, were γ-irradiated in the dark at liquid nitrogen temperature. On warming to room temperature at a near-linear rate of 20°K./min., a glow peak having a maximum luminescence intensity at 162 ± 8°K. was observed in all samples; an additional peak at 239 ± 7°K. was resolved relatively infrequently. Low luminescence yields precluded an investigation of the spectral distribution of the glow peaks. It is shown that the electron traps associated with the lower temperature peak are most probably the main-chain methyl groups, while the higher temperature glow peak is tentatively associated with escape of electrons from structural defects in a few small crystalline regions of the samples. It is postulated that, for the peak at 162°K., the trapped electrons combine radiatively with luminescence centers when thermally induced rotational motion of the main-chain methyl groups permits sufficient wave-function overlap. Assuming that methods of glow curve analysis proposed for inorganic materials are applicable to organics, first-order recombination kinetics and an activation energy of 0.084 ± 0.006 e. v. are deduced for the intensity maximum at 162°K. This activation energy is in fair agreement with that obtained by Bordoni et al. for an unspecified side-chain motion occurring at similar temperatures, but is only about half the values quoted with some reservations by Powles and by Kawai on the basis of NMR experiments. It was not possible to determine the kinetics of the 239°K. peak with certainty, but an activation energy of 0.432 ± 0.085 e. v. follows from a first-order assumption. The additives present in the samples did not appear to play any significant part as electrontrapping agents; this observation contrasts with some recent work on the visible and ultraviolet absorption spectra of the same materials which showed a close correlation of additional bands developed following irradiation with the presence of specific additives.

    Notes: Analysis of polystyrene standards by gel permeation chromatography over a wide range of flow rates revealed two sources of error in volume measurement. These errors arise from solvent evaporation in the siphon chamber and from solvent continuing to flow into the siphon during discharge. Appropriate corrections are discussed, and a vapor feedback loop to eliminate the solvent evaporation error is described. The flow rate dependence of the GPC calibration curve, expressed in the corrected elution volumes, appears different from that reported in the literature. The corrected flow rate dependence of peak elution volumes is in agreement with the expectation of diffusion and exclusion theories.

    Notes: Infrared spectra of methylbutenes and methylpentenes in the skeletal deformation region have been measured. The force constants for the skeletal deformation vibrations are determined from the frequencies of isobutylene, isobutylene-d6, and methylbutenes. The frequencies of methylpentenes are calculated for the various conformations, and the stable rotational isomers determined. The energy differences between the isomers are determined from the temperature dependence of the spectra. These results are correlated with the conformations of cis-and trans-1,4-polyisoprene chains, and possible conformations are suggested.

    Notes: Polyacrylonitrile crystals were grown from dilute solutions of propylene carbonate by a technique similar to that described by Holland et al. Crystals were also grown on various substrates and sampled at various stages of growth after washing away the uncrystallized solution. The initial single lamellae rapidly develop into complex twinned structures with many overgrowths. The morphology of the full-grown crystal varied considerably with crystallization temperature. Small-angle x-ray and electron microscopy results indicate only a small change in lamellar thickness with crystallization temperature for our polymer. Electron and x-ray diffraction results indicate lateral order can be quite good in these crystals. Our x-ray results indicate that the previously reported a and b parameters should be doubled to give a = 21.18 Å and b = 11.60 Å. However, there was no evidence for chain-axis order. The crystals were stretched at various stages of growth on Mylar film. Multilamellar crystals having their long axis parallel to the draw direction formed large cracks perpendicular to the long axis. Fibers of large diameter (100-250 Å) were observed across these cracks. When the long axis of these crystals was at an angle to the draw direction no large cracks or fibers were observed. Single lamellae generally cracked perpendicular to the draw direction, irrespective of their orientation to the draw direction. Definite fibers were not observable across cracks in single lamellae.

    Notes: The shape of the first derivative of the dispersion mode of an inhomogeneously broadened electron spin resonance spectrum changes markedly on saturation. This behavior provides a convenient and rapid technique for estimating the spin latice relaxation time of the paramagnetic species involved. The technique is described together with the relevant theory. Values for the relaxation times of free radicals derived from poly(methyl methacrylate) and from poly(sodium methacrylate) have been obtained by this method and are found to be in good agreement with those obtained by the progressive saturation technique. A series of salts of polymethacrylic acid have been γ-irradiated, and the spin lattice relaxation times of the resulting trapped radicals were determined at 77 and 299°K. For a given polymer the relaxation times show little variation with temperature. This is attributed to a broad distribution of correlation times.

    Notes: A current theory of the tensile strength of rubbers invokes large-scale crosslink interchange at room temperature to explain the high tensile strengths of networks crosslinked with weak linkages. This mechanical lability of certain crosslinks has been assumed from their known thermal lability at higher temperatures. Relaxation of stress experiments at various elongations have been performed at room temperature on networks crosslinked with both weak and strong linkages. Our purpose was to detect mechanically induced crosslink slippage. We have found no evidence of any mechanical lability of weak crosslinks at room temperature. A hypothesis is presented which explains the high tensile strengths of rubbers crosslinked with weak linkages as resulting from an internally relaxed network formed by the thermal lability of the crosslinks at the vulcanization temperature. This theory is shown to be consistent with some previously unexplained experimental results.

    Notes: Viscoelastic properties of uncrosslinked 1,2-polybutadiene (91.5% vinyl, 7.0% cis, 1.5% trans, number-average molecular weight 99,000) were studied by dynamic shear measurements between 0.15 and 600 cps (torsion pendulum and Fitzgerald transducer) and shear creep measurements over time periods up to 3.7 × 104 sec., in the temperature rang from 5 to 50°C. More limited dynamic measurements were made on a sample of unvulcanized natural rubber with number-average molecular weight 350,000 at frequencies from 0.4 to 400 cps and temperatures from 13 to 48°C. All data were reduced to 25°C. by shift factors calculated from equations of the WLF form with the following coefficients: 1,2-polybutadiene, c1 = 6.23, c2 = 72.5; natural rubber, c1 = 5.94, c2 = 151.6. In the transition zone, the relative positions of the loss tangent curves on the logarithmic frequency scale for these and other rubbers (1,4-polybutadiene with 50% trans configuration; styrene-butadiene rubber with 23.5% styrene content; and polyisobutylene) provided relative measures of local segment mobility. At 25°C., these ranged over a factor of 3700 with 1,2-polybutadiene and polyisobutylene the lowest and 1,4-polybutadiene the highest. When the frequency scale of each rubber was reduced to a temperature 100°C. above its glass transition temperature, however, the loss tangent curves for all except polyisobutylene were nearly coincident; the latter still showed a lower mobility by a factor of about 1/800. The terminal relaxation time and steady-state compliance for the 1,2-polybutadiene calculated from the Rouse theory were larger than those observed experimentally. The level of compliance corresponding to the entanglement network of 1,2-polybutadiene, JeN, was calculated by integration over the loss compliance, J″, to be 1.62 × 10-7 cm.2/dyne; integration over G″ to obtain the corresponding modulus gave reasonable agreement. From such JeN, values, the average number of chain atoms between entanglement points, jZe, was estimated as follows: 1,2-polybutadiene, 132; natural rubber, 360; 1,4-polybutadiene, 110; styrene-butadiene rubber, 186; polyisobutylene, 320. Values of jZe were also estimated from the minimum in the loss tangent and compared with those reported from the molecular weight dependence of viscosity. The three sources were in generally good agreement.

    Notes: The steady-state current density versus applied electric field characteristics have been measured for two types of polystyrene films. Measurements were made on 1-mil biaxially oriented film and on films produced by casting from solution. The cast films ranged from 5 to 0.5 μ in thickness. The measurements of the steady-state current flowing through the films were done by two different methods. The first was the direct observation of current flowing in a circuit connected to the film which was under a potential stress. The second involved the observation of the decay of a static charge placed on the surface of a film. Both methods are handicapped by the fact that large transient currents flow for extended periods after any change is made in the experimental set up. The results indicate that at 25°C the current increases as the 3.5 power of the applied electric field when the field is greater than 8 × 104 V/cm. At fields less than 8 × 104 V/cm the current decreases more rapidly and tends to become zero.

    Notes: An investigation has been carried out of the interaction of optically active tris(ethylenediamine)-Co(III) and of tris(o-phenanthroline)-Ni(II) complex ions with different polyelectrolytes in dilute aqueous solution. Optical rotatory dispersion measurements reveal that binding of the Co(III) complex ions occurs with a noticeable degree of specificity which in addition to depending on the nature of the fixed charges is also affected by the chemical constitution of the polyelectrolytes chain backbones. The dependence of tris(ethylenediamine)-Co(III) optical activity on polyelectrolyte concentration also exhibits interesting features. Polarimetric measurements of the rate of racemization of tris(o-phenanthroline)-Ni(II) ions in the presence of different polyelectrolytes lead to similar conclusions. Sodium dextran sulfate is shown to interact selectively with one of the antipodes of tris(phenanthroline)-Ni(II) complex.

    Notes: The melt viscosity, the glass transition, and the effect of pressure on these are analyzed for polystyrene on the basis of the Tammann-Hesse viscosity equation: log η = log A + B/(T - T0). Evidence that the glass transition is an isoviscosity state (log ηg ≃ 13) for lower molecular weight fractions (M 〈 Mc) is reviewed. For a polystyrene fraction of intermediate molecular weight (M ≃ 19,000; tg = 89°C.), it is shown that B is independent of the p-v-T state of the polymer liquid and that dT0/dP = dTg/dP. This is consistent with the postulate that B is determined by the internal barriers to rotation in the isolated polymer chain. Relationships are derived for flow “activation energies” at constant pressure and at constant volume, and for the “activation volume.” Values for polystyrene along the zero-pressure isobar and along the constant viscosity, glasstransition line are reported. For the latter, ΔVg* is constant and corresponds to about 10 styrene units. The “free volume” viscosity equation: log η = log A + b/2.3φ, is reexamined. For polystyrene and polyisobutylene, φg/b = 0.03, but φg and b themselves differ appreciably in these polymers. The parameter b is the product of an equilibrium term Δα and the kinetic term B, and none of these is a “universal” constant for different polymers. The physical significance of the free volume parameter φ, particularly with regard to the “excess” liquid volume, remains undefined. Two new relationships for dTg/dP, one an exact derivation and the other an empirical correlation, are presented.

    Notes: A theoretical treatment is given for the formation of visible holes in an elastic solid. It differs from previous treatments of bubble formation in liquids by neglecting the problem of hole nucleation altogether. Instead, a small spherical hole is assumed to be present initially. The inflation of such a hole by a dissolved gas is then considered. A critical internal pressure is deduced, at which the hypothetical hole would become infinitely large. This pressure is given by 5G/2; where G is the shear modulus of the rubber. Some model experiments are described in which swollen rubber vulcanizates were rapidly heated to bring the dissolved liquid into a superheated conditions. The temperatures of rapid bubble formation were determined for a number of vulcanizates having different degrees of crosslinking and hence different values of shear modulus, and for different swelling liquids. The results are shown to be in reasonably good quantitative agreement with the theoretical predictions.

    Notes: The structure of the polycarbonate chain has been analyzed from the point of view of the spatial configurations it may assume. The carbonate group is certainly planar, and the trans,trans configuration probably is strongly preferred. Rotations about the aryloxygen bonds are subject to symmetric, twofold potentials. It follows that the molecule can be treated as a freely rotating chain consisting of a succession of virtual bonds 7.0 Å in length, joined at angles of ca. 112°. Calculations carried out on this basis yield 〈r2〉0/M = 0.85 Å2/g-mole wt for the unperturbed random coil, in excellent agreement with the experimental results of Berry, Nomura, and Mayhan. The effect of occurrence of some of the carbonate groups in cis, trans configurations is investigated using more elaborate methods.

    Notes: A brief description is given of a new parallel-plate rheogoniometer for normal stress measurements on polymer melts as functions of the rate of shear. A wire-resistance strain gauge is used as the pressure gauge. Measurements are reported on high-density polyethylene. It is found that the time-temperature superposition principle is applicable to the normal stress data as well as to shear stress in steady flow.

    Notes: The surface of thin polyethylene films (ca. 1 mil) nucleated on high- and low-energy surfaces was studied. It was found that the degree of crystallinity in the surface region, as determined by transmission and reflection infrared spectroscopy, was dependent on the nature of the substrate. Relatively small and randomly oriented spherulites were observed in the surface region of thin polyethylene films nucleated on gold, a high-energy surface. The surface region of a thin polythylene film nucleated on polytetrafluoroethylene, a low-energy substrate, was observed to have considerably fewer spherulites, but much larger in size, with orientation restricted, in general, to the plane of the film. The relative intensity of the 720 cm-1 to the 730 cm-1 band in the reflectance spectra (ATR) indicates that the surface region of a polyethylene film nucleated on a high surface energy substrate is more crystalline than the surface region of a film nucleated on a low surface energy substrate.

    Notes: The orientation of the crystallographic c axis (chain axis) was followed by x-ray diffraction during the crystallization of four samples of isotactic polystyrene differing in elongation ratio. The crystallite orientation can be expressed by 〈cos2 χc〉, where χc is the angle between the c axis and the stretching direction. The degrees of crystallinity w were estimated from the diffraction data by using density for calibration. It was found that 〈cos2 χc〉 decreases in a linear manner with crystallinity, the rate of decrease being very small when the elongation ratio α is 5, but becoming progressively larger as α is decreased toward unity. A qualitative measure suggests that amorphous orientation decreases during crystallization at a rate which is nearly independent of α. The variation of 〈cos2 χc〉 with w is therefore governed by the orientation of the statistical chain segments prior to crystallization. If the elongation ratio is small, the supply of well oriented statistical segments is limited, and 〈cos2 χc〉 will decrease at a rapid rate during crystallization. A treatment due to Krigbaum and Roe permits evaluation of the ratio, ν/N, where ν and N are the average numbers of statistical segments in the crystallization nucleus of critical size, and in a network chain, respectively. Our polystyrene samples were not crosslinked, so chain entanglements must serve as junction points. Values of ν could not be obtained, since N was unknown. However, the (ν/N) ratio for isotactic polystyrene decreases slowly with α, and the values agree reasonably well with those obtained in a previous study of oriented polychloroprene networks. After nearly complete crystallization (ω ca. 0.30), the long period spacing measured by low angle diffraction was approximately 135 Å, and varied only slightly with elongation ratio in the range α = 1 to 5. It therefore appears that chain folded lamellae are present in both drawn and undrawn samples of isotactic polystyrene.

    Notes: A fluorocarbon copolymer of chlorotrifluoroethylene (96%) and vinylidene fluoride has been isothermally crystallized and the quenched films analyzed by the light microscope, photographic light-scattering, and density measurements. Above a supercooling of 79°C., homogeneous nucleation dominates, giving a morphology that appears to be that of a twisted ribbon. At supercoolings below 79°C., heterogeneous nucleation dominates and leads to spherulitic morphology. Sheaf or rodlike morphology occurs at very low supercoolings. Crystallization rates determined from density measurements at room temperature indicate maximum rate due to heterogeneous nucleation occurring at a supercooling greater than 79°C., but the temperature for maximum rate cannot be identified because of the transition to homogeneous nucleation which causes a discontinuity in the rate versus temperature curve. Superposability of crystallization isotherms constructed from density values are inconsistent with the large melting point lowering from that of polychlorotrifluoroethylene for this copolymer. However, this may be explained by the presence of a different crystal system for each monomer in the copolymer.

    Notes: The spherulitic growth data that exist in the literature for a wide diversity of polymers have been analyzed according to various possible nucleation mechanisms. It is demonstrated that, if allowed a reasonable choice for the equilibrium melting temperature, no unbiased selection of a unique nucleation process can be made. Moreover, a set of universal parameters exists for each of the allowable nucleation processes which enables the data to be represented by a single straight line which encompasses all the polymers. The only quantities specific to a given polymer are the equilibrium melting temperature and the activation energy for transport. The magnitude of the latter quantity is shown to be dependent on the glass temperature of the polymer.

    Notes: Polyoctadecene-1, as isolated from a Ziegler-type polymerization, was examined by density and refractive index measurements and by differential thermal analysis. Two main transitions were observed, their sharpness suggesting that they are both first-order. Extraction with n-hexane at 25°C. separated the polymer into two almost equal fractions, each showing essentially one of these transitions. Transition temperatures were compared with those of certain other polymers having long n-alkyl side chains. From this comparison, and from the findings of other workers, it was concluded that the polymer of lower transition temperature is atactic polyoctadecene, in which the side chains only participate in crystallization, whereas the polymer of higher transition temperature is tactic polyoctadecene, in which crystallization involves both the main chain and side chains.

    Notes: On the basis of an isoviscosity criterion for the glass transition (ηg ⋍ 1013 poise) in liquids of low molecular weight, theoretical Tg values were calculated for the n-alkane series by the equation log η = log A + B/(T - T0), with the use of values reported by Lewis for the parameters. The Tg/T0 ratio reaches a limiting value of 1.25 and φg = (Tg - T0)/2.3B = 0.027, a constant. Extrapolation to (CH2)∞ gives Tg = 200°K., T0 = 160°K., and B = 640°K. This Tg is consistent with other estimates for poly-ethylene, and T0 coincides with the temperature at which the “excess” liquid entropy for (CH2)∞ becomes zero from thermodynamic data. For polymer liquids it is proposed that E0 = 2.3RB is determined by the internal barriers to rotation for the “isolated” polymer chains. Thus, E0 = 2.9 kcal./mole for polyethylene, 3.0 kcal./mole for polystyrene, 5.7 kcal./mole for polyisobutylene, and 1.9 kcal./mole for polydimethylsiloxane.

    Notes: The ESR spectra of peroxy radicals in irradiated powders and oriented samples of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTEE) have been measured with a K-band spectrometer, and the principal values and directions of the g tensor were determined both at room temperature and at 77°K. In contrast to the spectra of the usual peroxy radicals, those trapped in γ-irradiated PTFE exhibited an ESR spectrum apparently having a larger principal value for g⊥ than for g∥ when measured at room temperature, although the normal principal values were observed at 77°K. As for the directions of the principal axes, g∥ was directed along the chain axis at room temperature and was perpendicular to the chain axis at 77°K. From the temperature change of the g tensor and the line shapes in the oriented samples, it is shown that the observed temperature change of the spectra is due to rapid rotation at room temperature around the chain axis rather than around the C—O bond axis. Assuming this, the apparent principal values of the g tensor at room temperature were calculated from the g tensor obtained at 77°K. for the rigid state, and the results are in good agreement with observations at room temperature. A structure for the peroxy radicals is also proposed. In addition, the spectral line shape function for the uniaxially oriented samples has been derived.

    Notes: Theoretical and experimental evidence is put forward to prove that the determination of the phase-volume ratio as a function of temperature and concentration is a sensitive and simple means of determining the liquid-liquid critical state. Knowledge of the critical conditions permits very accurate calculations of the interaction parameter g in the free-energy function. In experiments with polystyrene-cyclohexane, g was found to depend on the concentration. The value of g and its concentration dependence agree very well with the results of osmotic measurements by Rehage and Palmen. In experiments with polyethylene-diphenyl ether, g proved to be independent of concentration in the range of measurement. The temperature function was found to be: g = -0.6086 + 482.2/T (at 137-148°C.). Gibbs' expressions for the critical conditions were worked out for a free-energy relation in the form of an extended Flory-Huggins function.

    Notes: Cloud-point curves (CPC) were calculated on the basis of the Flory-Huggins free-energy relation for various hypothetical polymer samples dissolved in a single solvent. Molecular weight distributions varying widely in shape and width were examined. The shape of the CPC reflects details of the molecular weight distribution. This appears from the location of the critical point on the right-hand branch of the CPC. The latter often shows a depression, which becomes more distinct as the Mz/Mw value increases. These theoretical results were confirmed experimentally with the system polyethylene-diphenyl ether. With the aid of the theoretical data collected it was possible to explain the remarkable agreement between the θ temperatures determined by light-scattering and by the Shultz-Flory method. The latter method is basically incorrect, since it identifies the polymer solution with a binary mixture. An explanation could also be given for the empirical relation which McIntyre et al. recently found between the shape of the top of the CPC and the width of the molecular weight distribution.

    Notes: The electric birefringence of sodium polyethylenesulfonate in water has been studied. For a low molecular weight fraction, the electric field dependence followed the Kerr law quite closely. For a higher molecular weight fraction, the specific Kerr constant was much larger, and pronounced saturation of the electric birefringence was observed in fields of 15 kv./cm. The specific Kerr constant increased with decreasing polyelectrolyte concentration in pure water. On the other hand, it decreased on isoionic dilution. The saturation effect was the more marked, the lower the polyelectrolyte concentration. The saturation behavior resembled that of permanent dipole orientation, but this mechanism was not supported by the build-up of the birefringence. The magnitudes of specific Kerr constants of various types of macromolecules in solution are tabulated and discussed.

    Notes: The results of measurement of the shear and tensile creep compliance of poly(methyl methacrylate) between -150 and 75°C. are presented. The master curves show the creep behavior from essentially elastic response to the onset of the α-process. The logarithmic retardation spectra and shear loss compliance reveal two molecular processes, one process being partially obscured by the α-process and therefore not as well defined as the other. These processes manifest themselves as breaks in an Arrhenius plot of the shift factors at about -35 and +25°C. The activation energies in the -35 to 25°C. and 25 to 80°C. ranges are 17.8 kcal./mole and 42.2 kcal./mole, respectively. The former temperature range and activation energy corresponds to the well-known ß-process in poly(methyl methacrylate), the latter to a process which is apparently detectable using various long-time experimental techniques but whose molecular interpretation is at present obscure. The activation energy in the -150 to -35°C. range is about 8.7 kcal./mole.

    Notes: Nuclear magnetic resonance of poly-β-alanine samples differing in solubility in water was studied over a wide temperature range as part of an investigation of their physical properties. Water-soluble poly-β-alanine has more branches and a lower degree of crystallinity than water-insoluble poly-β-alanine. NMR spectra of poly-β-alanine show one component at 77°K. which splits into two components, broad and narrow, at room temperature. Two transition regions were observed in curves for line width and second moment versus temperature. The higher transition temperature, corresponding to the glass transition of the polymer, appears to decrease with increasing water content. The second moment for the water-soluble polymer differs from that of the water-insoluble polymer at 77°K. This is interpreted in terms of the difference in the degree of crystallinity of the polymers.

    Notes: Viscoelastic properties of four linear and three very lightly crosslinked polybutadienes (microstructure about 50% trans) were studied. Of the latter, two had not reached the gel point, and their molecular weight distributions were determined by sedimentation velocity analysis; the third was crosslinked just past the gel point, with only 32% gel fraction present. The crosslinking agent was sulfur. Complex shear compliances were measured over a frequency range from 0.1 to 1000 cps at temperatures from -70 to 30°C. with a Fitzgerald transducer and a Plazek torsion pendulum; and torsional creep measurements were made over time periods up to about three days. The creep data were converted to the corresponding dynamic viscoelastic functions at very low frequencies by conventional approximation methods. All data were reduced to 25°C. by shift factors calculated from a previously adopted equation of the WLF form. In the transition zone, the viscoelastic properties of linear samples were almost independent of molecular weight. The entanglement spacing, derived from the minimum in the loss tangent and the inflection in the storage compliance, was 130 to 160 chain atoms. The maximum in the retardation spectrum attributable to motions of individual network strands was closely similar to the corresponding maxima for more highly crosslinked vulcanizates previously studied, showing that even in the latter it is associated with entanglement network strands rather than strands between chemical crosslinks. For a linear sample with molecular weight 180,000, the retardation processes disappear at times beyond about 10 sec. at 25°C. With crosslinking short of the gel point (i.e., branching) the slow retardation processes are enormously increased and prolonged to longer times. With further crosslinking through the gel point and beyond, the slow retardation processes decrease progressively in magnitude. Qualitatively, this behavior resembles the sharp maximum in content of highly branched and aggregated molecular species which is predicted at the gel point by crosslinking statistics; but the slow processes (or low-frequency losses) persist farther past the gel point than would be expected on this basis. The steady-state compliances of the linear samples were smaller, but for a sample crosslinked short of the gel point were much larger, than the prediction of the Rouse theory modified for molecular weight distribution.

    Notes: The temperature dependence of the intrinsic viscosity [η] for the system polystyrene-cyclohexane in the interval -20 〈 (T - ψ) ≤ 0 near the ideal temperature ψ has been investigated. The observed diminution in size of the molecular coil with decreasing temperature is attributable to attractive net polymer-solvent interactions, denoted by negative values for the excluded volume parameter z. The data thus comprise an interesting selection for comparison with the predictions of various excluded volume theories. Among the approximate, closed-form expressions the functional relationship of Flory (x5 - α3 ∼ z) appears to describe best the variation of [η] with temperature in the region examined. The behavior of the Huggins constant k′ derived from the intrinsic viscosity plots is also examined, in accordance with the Peterson-Fixman model, suitably extended to the temperature region below ψ.

    Notes: The product of the thermal polymerization of ß-carboxymethyl caprolactam has been identified as a poly[(2,6-dioxo-1,4-piperidinediyl)trimethylene]. An indication of various chain conformations has been explained by the possible existence of two different conformations of the dioxopiperidine moiety. One conformation pertains to an equatorial position of the trimethylene moiety with respect to the plane of the imide group. The other is derived from a structural unit in which the trimethylene group is positioned axially to the plane of the ring. While the former conformation has been ascribed to the crystalline modification the latter appears to be the predominant structure of the polymer in formic acid solution as indicated by NMR analysis. In the glassy state the macromolecule is assumed to be composed of segments of either conformation. The unoriented linear polymer crystallizes upon annealing in positively birefringent spherulites. A triclinic unit cell with the following parameters: a = 9.64 A., b = 11.32 A., c = 15.80 A., α = 98°, β = 96°, γ = 114° has been found to contain eight structural units. The calculated density, 1.30 g./cm.3, agrees with experimental data. A crystal structure is proposed on the basis of the x-ray data.

    Notes: Drawn PE of different draw ratios (ranging from 1 to 25) and thermal treatment (annealing temperature 80, 100, 110, 120, 127°C.) was treated with fuming nitric acid at 80°C. Weight loss, molecular weight, elastic modulus, and thermograms were measured for annealed and unannealed samples as a function of the treatment time and draw ratio. As a consequence of the preferential oxidation of the noncrystalline portions, there occurs initially a high rate of weight loss and a steep drop in molecular weight, followed by a lower rate of weight loss at nearly constant molecular weight. The elastic modulus stays practically constant up to the moment where the brittleness of the sample prevents further measurement. During the later period the thermograms exhibit one melting peak during the first melting. The remelt of the same sample, however, has two melting peaks with a relative intensity independent of the treatment time. That the two melting peaks are caused by two components of different molecular weights present in the sample is substantiated by fractionation. At very high annealing temperature (127°C.), two peaks appear, not only in the first melting curve of the etched sample, but also in the melting curve of the unetched material. Such an effect is the consequence of partial melting during annealing followed by new crystallization during cooling the sample to room temperature. The findings are related to the morphology of the drawn material under the assumption of preferential scission of chain loops in the amorphous-crystalline sandwich layer model.

    Notes: The results of an investigation of the viscoelastic and thermal properties of the gelatin-glycerol system are presented in the form of a complete temperature-composition diagram. This diagram shows the isochronal (10-sec.) mechanical behavior of the system along lines of constant modulus and thereby affords a convenient assessment of variation in viscoelastic behavior along any isotherm or isopleth of interest. Comparison of the results with previously obtained limited sets of data on a number of other polymer-dilent systems indicates the applicability and utility of such a presentation.

    Notes: It is reported that mats formed by the sedimentation of single crystals of methyl- and ethyl-branched polyethylene exhibit strength and ductility comparable with that of melt-crystallized films. In fact, in the case of methyl-branched polymers, extensions of up to 50× were obtained on cold drawing. Observations on separate crystals suggest that this extension is due to the pulling out of individual lamellae. In view of the magnitude of the extension, this implies unfolding of the molecules. That considerable coherence can be obtained without original molecular ties between crystals is of significance as regards the molecular interpretation of the strength and ductility of crystalline polymers.

    Notes: The unperturbed mean-square end-to-end distance 〈R02〉 and its temperature variation d In 〈R02〉/dT for isotactic polypropylene have been estimated from intrinsic viscosity data in three theta solvents, i.e., diphenyl, diphenyl ether, and dibenzyl ether, measured at their θ temperatures as determined by precipitation temperature measurements. The characteristic ratios, 〈R02〉/nl2, where n is the number of bonds of length l in the main chain, evaluated by assuming Φ = 2.87 × 1021, are 5.80 in diphenyl (at θ = 125.1°C.), 5.41 in diphenyl ether (at θ = 142.8°C.), and 4.56 in dibenzyl ether (at θ = 183.2°C.). These values lead to the temperature coefficient d In 〈R02〉/dT = -4.09 × 10-3 deg.-1 Results are compared with the data previously reported on polyethylene.

    Notes: When cellulose triacetates and some hydrolyzed acetates are boiled in 2.5N hydrochloric acid there is no residue. Under the same conditions cellulose is hydrolyzed, and a residue is obtained with a limiting viscosity that is related to the average length of the cellulose crystallites. These findings are combined to develop a method for studying the progress of acetylation through the amorphous portion of cellulose and into the crystallites, and to investigate the relative reactivities of cellulose I and cellulose II. Acetates were made from cotton and wood cellulose by a “fibrous” (heterogeneous) esterification involving sulfoacetic acid or perchloric acid catalyst in acetic acid-acetic anhydride; the final acetyl contents (10-41%) were attained by stopping the reaction at various points short of the triester (rather than by hydrolyzing a triester). When these acetates were boiled in 2.5N HCI they did not disappear completely, and the residues were cellulose I, indicating that cellulose acetate had been removed. With increasing acetyl the yield of residue decreased, and beyond about 33% acetyl the viscosity and x-ray measurements showed that the length and width of the crystallites decreased. However, when a nonsolvent such as toluene was added to the acetylation medium, the limiting viscosity did not change over the same acetyl range (up to 40%). Samples of varying acetyl values were taken during a regular acetylation of cotton linters in a mixer with sulfuric acid catalyst. X-ray studies of the residues obtained by boiling the acetates in 2.5N HCI revealed the presence of unreacted cellulose I even after 40% acetyl had been reached. This explains why the manufacture of cellulose esters from cellulose I requires complete esterification before they are hydrolyzed to the desired acetyl level. It was shown that there is a distinct difference between the acetylation reactivity of cellulose I and cellulose II. This indicates the importance of avoiding cellulose II formation during the refinement of cellulose for the manufacture of cellulose acetate in a process involving activation with acetic acid.

    Notes: The phase equilibria in polymer-liquid 1-liquid 2 ternary systems have been calculated on the basis of the Flory-Huggins theory of polymer solutions. A new approximation method based on the “cluster” concept has been introduced for mixed solvents comprising a solvent and a nonsolvent. This concept has been verified with polystyrene-solvent-methanol systems.

    Notes: Highly crystalline polycaprolactam was prepared by zone polymerization of ε-caprolactam. Folded-chain crystallized and annealed, melt-crystallized, and solution-crystallized polycaprolactam was produced from commercial polycaprolactam. All samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, density measurement, and heat of fusion measurement. The determination of the time-dependent melting by DTA and scanning calorimetry revealed that all the different morphologies show different melting behavior. Zone-polymerized polycaprolactam superheats, and the other morphologies reorganize on heating to different degrees. Densities and heat of fusion vary in the same manner - from highest to lowest - in the order: zone-polymerized, solution-crystallized, annealed, and melt-crystallized. An estimate of heat of fusion, equilibrium melting point, and surface free energy was obtained from the melting points.

    Notes: Precise heat capacity values are reported over the temperature range from 10 to 360°K. for a sample of atactic polystyrene having a narrow molecular weight distribution. This sample was taken from the stock from which National Bureau of Standards Standard Sample 705, Narrow Molecular Weight Distribution Polystyrene, was established. Data are reported for the sample as received, and after an annealing procedure. At temperatures below about 60°K. a systematic difference comparable with the limits of experimental precision appears between the values obtained for the present sample as received and after the annealing, although at higher temperatures the values for the two conditions showed no systematic difference beyond the limits of precision of the measurements. At temperatures above 100°K., previously published values for atactic polystyrene samples of various molecular weight distributions and for isotactic polystyrene agree within about 0.5% of the values from this investigation. At temperatures below 100°K. significant heat capacity differences appear, especially between values for the atactic and the isotactic isomers, and even between atactic samples of different molecular weight distribution.

    Notes: The mechanical effects of association between pendant ionic groups are investigated in series of butadiene-lithium methacrylate copolymers, butadiene-methyl (2-methyl-5-vinyl)-pyridinium iodide copolymers, and mixtures of these polyelectrolytes. Thermal and mechanical tests reveal a new transition above Tg in the pyridinium copolymers, designated Tt*. Below this temperature the materials behave like covalently crosslinked elastomers. The complex between the metal carboxylates appears thermally dissociable at all temperatures. The mixing of the oppositely charged polyelectrolytes leads to the formation of more stable intermolecular pyridinium carboxylate links.

    Notes: The vibration frequencies of a polyethylene crystal lattice have been computed for various structures in which a fully deuterated chain is mixed with a normal chain. Intermolecular potential functions previously developed by the authors were used in the calculation. It is shown that such structures make it possible to distinguish experimentally between chain folding in the (110) plane and folding parallel to the (100) plane. Calculations have also been done for a regular polymer of (CH2CD2). Such a structure would permit the determination of the parity of the number of methylene groups in the fold.

    Notes: With an increasing gradient, the intrinsic viscosity of a high molecular weight polyisobutylene (M̄n = 7 × 106) in polybutene oil L.100 (ηs = 5 poise) first drops to a minimum and then rises again. The minimum occurs at β = M[η]0ηsG/NkT = 240, which is about ten times the value predicted by the dumbbell model. Such a shift to larger gradient is in good agreement with the more realistic necklace model of macromolecules in a good solvent. The increase of intrinsic viscosity after the minimum is nearly linear with the gradient and continues beyond the value at zero gradient. Experiments with capillaries of different length-to-diameter ratios yield identical flow curves so that one may exclude the possibility that the observed upturn is an artifact caused by end effects or time dependence of viscosity.

    Notes: Depolymerization of amorphous polyacetaldehyde has been studied by measurements of weight loss versus time for thin films of the polymer in vacuum. Temperatures ranged from 40 to 80°C. The samples were prepared by freezing or melting the monomer in contact with treated glass surfaces. Light scattering, osmometry, and intrinsic viscosity measurements were used to characterize the polymers. Depolymerization rates were between second and third order with respect to the unvolatilized fraction, and the activation energy was 26.3 kcal. Much of the evidence points toward a slow unzipping reaction at the chain ends, but the analysis seems to be complicated by structural variations among the samples.

    Notes: Phase relationships of isotactic polypropylene in various organic diluents were investigated. The diluents used were aliphatic alcohols, alkyl phenols, aryl phenols, diphenyl derivatives, alkyl aryl ethers, esters, and others. Among the diluents examined, n-butyl alcohol, p-tert-butyl phenol, p-tert-amyl phenol, diphenyl, diphenyl ether, benzyl phenyl ether, dibenzyl ether, and benzyl propionate were found to be theta solvents for isotactic polypropylene at temperatures in the range 120-190°C. For these theta solvents, the thermodynamic interaction parameters were determined. The results are discussed in relation to the type of diluent.

    Notes: Droplet experiments have been performed on polybutene-1. It was found that this polymer can be cooled to room temperature without homogeneous nucleation of crystallization. It was also found that when the polymer was heterogeneously nucleated, form I (as well as form II) could be crystallized directly from the melt. The melting point of droplets crystallized in form I near room temperature decreased with increasing crystallization temperature, while the melting point of the droplets crystallized in form I at the highest temperatures increased with increasing crystallization temperature. There was a broad minimum at about 60°C. in the melting point versus crystallization temperature curve.

    Notes: Time-temperature superposition can be successfully applied to both the stress relaxation and dynamic mechanical properties of oriented PET fibers. Two curves result; one is the time dependence of the modulus at constant temperature, while the other is the shift, log aT, of this curve along the time scale as a function of temperature. This temperature dependence is less than that for both unoriented PET and typical amorphous polymers above Tg. It is about the same as that for oriented nylon 66 and unoriented glassy poly(methyl methacrylate). The isothermal modulus has the same time dependence as that of the unoriented PET; however, it is a factor of 3.3 larger. The modulus curve is almost identical in both shape and magnitude with that of oriented nylon 66. However, a temperature of 82°C. is required to place the viscoelastic dispersion region of PET at the same time scale as nylon 66 at 25°C. This temperature increase is the major difference in viscoelasticity between these two oriented polymers.

    Notes: Crosslinked samples of polyethylene were prepared by electron irradiation of both high- and low-density polymers in the crystalline state. A further crosslinked sample was obtained by curing a high-density polyethylene by reaction with dicumyl peroxide at 180°C. The stress-strain-birefringenece relations were obtained on specimens cut from these samples at temperatures between 130 and 250°C. All samples showed a substantial decrease in stress-optical coefficient with increasing degree of crosslinking and with increasing temperature. The stress-optical properties at each temperature were extrapolated to zero degree of crosslinking to give quantities characteristic of the Gaussian network. Comparison of these properties with the theory of networks of rotational isomeric chains with both independent and interdependent rotation allows estimates to be obtained for (1) the trans-gauche energy differences in rotation around skeletal bonds and (2) the difference in principal optical polarizabilities for the CH2 group in the elastomeric state. This latter quantity is shown to be more nearly given by Denbigh's than by Bunn and Daubeny's bond polarizability values.

    Notes: A theory is developed that describes the diffusion of solute into the gel particles during a gel permeation chromatographic experiment. The particles are treated as homogeneous spheres of radius a, into which diffusion takes place with diffusion coefficient Ds. The concentration in the mobile phase at any level at any time is supposed to be uniform throughout the cross-section of the column. It is shown that in the usual columns the effect of diffusion in the mobile phase is unimportant. A determinative quantity in the process is the parameter a2/Dst, where t is the time. For large values of a2/Dst an explicit expression for concentration versus time in the mobile phase at the end of the column is derived [eq. (26) and Fig. 1]. It shows a relatively long tail at large efflux volumes V, where the concentration varies at V-3/2. For arbitrary values of a2/Dst the first three moments of the concentration versus time curve are calculated [eqs. (33)-(37)]. Pronounced skewness of the curve is found unless a2/Dst is small.
