    Notes: A multidomain boundary element formulation for the analysis of general two-dimensional plane strain/stress crack problems is presented. The numerical results were accurate and efficient. The analyses were performed using traction singular quater-point boundary elements on each side of the crack tip(s) with and without transition elements. Traction singular quarter-point boundary elements contain the correct √r displacement and 1/√r traction variations at the crack tip. Transition elements are appended to the traction singular elements to model the √r displacement variation. The 1/√r traction singularity is not represented with these elements. Current research studies for the crack propagation analysis of quasi-static and fatigue fracture problems are discussed.

    Notes: Cracked plates of power hardening material under plane strain and incompressibility conditions are investigated in this work by using a penalty function and superposition method. The present numerical method is found to be quite efficient for the relevant problems if the hardening exponent of material is not so large.

    Notes: In this note, we give the basis functions (shape functions) for Hsieh-Clough-Tocher triangles, complete or reduced. In order to take the best advantage of symmetry and for simplicity, we derive these functions for a general triangle by using simultaneously the ‘area co-ordinates’ and the so-called ‘eccentricity parameters’. We conclude with some remarks concerning the implementation.

    Notes: This paper considers some consequences of the common implementation of the finite element method in which element integrals are evaluated numerically by Gaussian quadrature. It shows that if the order of the Gauss scheme is less than the number of basis functions on an element, then the numerically evaluated capacity matrix for that element is singular. The capacity matrix of an assembly of such elements is also considered and is shown to be singular under certain conditions.

    Notes: This paper is concerned with the large-deflection (bending and free vibration)analysis of thin elastic curved beams by conventional and mixed finite element methods. The conventional finite element method is based on the total potential energy expression, whereas the mixed method is based on a Reissner-type variational statement and involves the bending moments and deflections as primary dependent variables. Incremental and direct formulations are presented for both methods. The nonlinearity is included in the numerical method via an iterative procedure (i.e. the in-plane force due to the large deflection is not treated as constant but included under the integral in the energy expression). In the case of vibrations, the transverse shear and rotary inertia effects are also included. A number of numerical examples of beams with various edge conditions are analysed for deflections and natural frequencies, and the results are compared with those reported in the literature.

    Notes: The stability of plane Poiseuille flow and circular Couette flow are examined with respect to linear azimuthally periodic disturbances by the finite element method. In the case of Couette motion, solutions are obtained for a narrow gap, a wide gap and a dilute polymer solution with an elongational viscosity in the narrow gap limit when both cylinders rotate at almost equal speed in the same direction. Results are in good agreement with previous calculations by other numerical methods.

    Notes: The use of the finite element concept in the time domain has resulted in a reinterpretation of many previously recorded recurrence formulae and the discovery of new ones. An important new feature common to all such schemes is the fact that a weighted forcing term is used. This precludes the application of unrealistic forcing terms resulting in a direct finite difference derivation and ‘smooths’ oscillation due to sudden changes of boundary condition. This problem is discussed in the context of various two- and three-level time schemes.

    Notes: A finite element formulation for the solution of time-dependent inelastic deformation problems for metallic structures, in the presence of transient thermal stresses, is presented in this paper. A rate formulation of the equations is used and any of a number of recently proposed combined creep-plasticity constitutive models with state variables can be adopted to describe material behaviour. The computer program developed can solve planar (plane strain and stress) and axisymmetric problems. Using one of the above-mentioned constitutive models, numerical results are presented for several illustrative problems, and comparisons of results, using either the quasi-steady or the unsteady diffusion equation for the determination of the temperature field, are carried out.

    Notes: The singularity mapping elementology based on the constant and semi-radial field conditions is presented in an originally quadrilateral finite element. With the complete evaluations of singularities in the stress and strain as well as of the strain energy finiteness, it is demonstrated that this singularity element family is highly versatile. Differences and some identities between the semi-radial mapping and the so-called quarter-point mapping are also examined.

    Notes: In this paper, free surface flow problems involving large free surface motion are analysed using finite element techniques. In solving these problems a spatially fixed Eulerian mesh is employed, in conjunction with a moving Lagrangian free surface line. The coupling, between the equations valid on the free surface and the equations valid on the fluid domain, is carried out using hybrid finite element techniques. Physical problems involving solitary wave propagation, sloshing dynamics and porous media flow are analysed to demonstrate the developed technique.

    Notes: This paper describes and efficient method for computing two-dimensional element stiffness matrices. It is a generalization of the algorithm given by Taylor. 1Theory is developed for elements which are loaded under plane stress, plane strain or axisymmetric conditions, and two FORTRAN IV subroutines are included. These subroutines, which are presented in a modular form, are applicable to any type of serendipity, Lagrangian or triangular element, and may be incorporated into a user's library. Alternatively, if desired, the relevant code may be embedded directly into existing stiffness generation routines.

    Notes: The problem of harmonic waves in layered and fibre-reinforced composites is solved by a method of finite elements. Piecewise linear approximating functions are used for the displacement and stress fields in a mixed variational formulation, recently proposed by one of the writers in the form of a new quotient. Numerical computations are made for approximate phase-velocities of harmonic waves in layered composites, where asymmetric and symmetric triangular meshes, and square meshes with interior nodes, are used. To illustrate the accuracy and effectiveness of the method, these approximate solutions are compared with those given by means of exponential test functions, and the exact ones by Rytov, etc. Calculations are also performed for harmonic waves in fibre-reinforced composites. Dispersion curves for these waves are obtained and displayed graphically.

    Notes: A solution strategy for the analysis of nonlinear structures is described. The strategy is a simple extension of existing Newton-type procedures, and can easily be incorporated into existing computer programs.Earlier work which contributed to the development of the strategy is reviewed and the theory of the procedure is presented. Six examples, covering several different types of structural behaviour are described. These examples suggest that the strategy is remarkably stable and efficient.

    Notes: This paper shows that mixed interpolation is required because of the nature of the pressure terms in the equations. These lead to finite element equations which in many circumstances do not uniquely determine the pressure, if the same interpolations are used for pressure and velocities.Several new combinations of pressure and velocity interpolation are analysed with the aid of a novel diagrammatic technique. In particular we consider some very interesting combinations in which, over nearly all the flow, the pressure and velocity are approximated on elements by biquadratic polynomials which are continuous across element boundaries.The theory of this paper is shown to be in complete agreement with numerical experiment.

    Notes: A finite element method with transmitting boundary is developed for time-harmonic elastodynamics on infinite domains. Only a finite inner domain needs to be discretized into conventional finite elements, while the effect of the exterior domain is simulated by introducing the transmitting boundary stiffness matrix on the degrees-of-freedom of the transmitting boundary nodes. In order to incorporate the Sommerfeld radiation condition, the reciprocity relation, on the transmitting boundary for the radiating elastodynamic state under consideration and the one which is induced by a finite number of point source is used to calculate the transmitting boundary stiffness matrix. The effectiveness of the transmitting boundary technique has been demonstrated by solving the stress concentration problems of a homogeneous isotropic full space with a circular cylindrical cavity and of the one with a spherical cavity, which are subjected to plane incident waves, and the results are compared with the ones of the conventional FEM and the exact data.

    Notes: The transient thermal analysis of large aerospace vehicles such as the space shuttle requires models with thousands of degrees-of-freedom. The design of thermal protection systems for such vehicles requires the repetitive thermal analysis of the vehicle and the calculation of sensitivities - derivatives of the transient response with respect to design parameters. When the number of design parameters is large, the cost of the sensitivity calculations may become prohibitive. The present work is concerned with reducing the computational cost and errors in sensitivity calculations with one of the simplest available methods - the finite difference approach. A technique for calculating simultaneously the nominal and perturbed solutions required for the finite difference derivative is proposed. An expression for the optimum value of the perturbation parameter is obtained which permits reducing the computational error. An insulated cylinder is used as an example which demonstrates that significant improvements in accuracy and efficiency may be obtained.

    Notes: A square tensile sheet with symmetric edge cracks is analysed by the finite element method to demonstrate the accuracy obtained with polynomial elements when the mesh patterns are chosen on the basis of the element's interpolation functions. Numerical results are provided for the accuracy of the total strain energy, the stress intensity factor, and the numerical condition of the global stiffness matrix. The stress intensity factor is determined to within 1.0 per cent accuracy using quadratic (linear strain) triangular elements with only 138 degrees-of-freedom.

    Notes: The principles of diakoptics are extended to time domain solutions and the technique is applied to the solution of fields by introducing space approximating polynomials. Since transmission-line networks provide time-discrete models suitable for exact numerical analysis, the topic is approached by tearing these transmission-line models and then showing how reconnection is made in the time domain.

    Notes: Two alternative hybrid-stress based three-dimensional elements are presented. These elements are intended for use in the analysis of thick plates for which the through-thickness variation of displacement and stress may be of high order, and in which a single element is to be used through the thickness of the plate. For both elements, the displacement assumption allows for cubic through-thickness variation in the inplane displacements, and quadratic through-thickness variation for the transverse displacement. The elements differ in the stress assumption used. In the first element, the z variations in the stress components are chosen to be consistent with the z variations of the strain distribution calculated from the displacement assumption, and the traction boundary conditions at the upper and lower surfaces are satisfied in the weighted integral sense. In the second element, the z variations in the stress components are chosen to achieve consistency with respect to the equilibrium equations, and the traction-free conditions at the upper and lower surface of the plate are satisfied exactly. The example problem of a semi-infinite, simply-supported thick plate under transverse sinusoidal loading is considered. Results obtained by using each of these elements are compared with available elasticity and approximate solutions, and an assessment of the relative merits and range of applicability of each element is made.

    Notes: A family of isoparametric curved beam elements of a general, compact cross-section is introduced. The formulation is based on beam theory and takes into account both transverse shear deformation and shear centre location. The elements exhibit the required displacement compatbility with Ahmad's superparametric thick-shell elements and isoparametric membrane elements. Examples presented at the end of the paper illustrate the validity of the formulation and the possibility of practical application of the elements.

    Notes: A new method of solving the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations by using the finite element method is proposed. The flow is represented by the stream function-vorticity formulation and the no-slip boundary conditions are explicitly introduced in the nonlinear equations. This formulation coupled with the Newton-Raphson method enables the study of stationary flows for high Reynolds number, without any convergence problem. A number of flow problems are analysed in order to demonstrate the efficiency of the present formulation.

    Notes: Some applications require the repeated calculation of numerical values of a polyhedral function at points specified by their co-ordinates. The function is usually defined by some simple interpolation over each of the finite elements of a given mesh. A necessary step for the calculation of the value of the function at a given point is to determine to which element the point belongs. Such a determination can be efficiently accomplished by establishing a correspondence between the cells of some suitably defined regular mesh and the finite elements. Then, for each given point, the cell to which the point belongs is determined and the elements associated with that cell are inspected. This method is described and discussed in the text, and compared with two other less efficient methods with the help of numerical examples.

    Notes: This paper shows that it is comparatively simple to analyse algorithms for the numerical integration of the Space discretized equations from structural dynamics when applied to \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$\ddot x + \mu \dot x\omega ^2 x = p{\rm e}^{ist} $\end{document}, instead of the usual \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \ddot x + \omega ^2 x = 0 $\end{document}, and suggests that this should be done in order to gain some insight into the effect with natural damping and/or a periodic forcing term. The method is illustrated on some three- and four-time-level schemes.

    Notes: A finite element analysis of strain-softening materials is presented in which the shear band of prescribed thickness is assumed to exist within elements where maximal stress intensity is reached. The incremental stiffness matrix of the element is derived including shear band deformation. Examples presented in the Paper demonstrate that the load-displacement curve and the displacement field are not sensitive to the mesh size used in the solution.

    Notes: A series of 4-node axisymmetric solid-of-revolution elements with quadrilateral cross-section are developed based on the hybrid-stress finite element model. The displacement interpolation is identical, and the elements differ in the stress field chosen; alternative schemes for selection of stress distribution are investigated. The performance of these elements is assessed and compared for the example problems of a thick cylinder and thick sphere under internal pressure. Of particular importance are convergence, intra-element stress distributions, and element performance as the incompressible state is approached.

    Notes: The dynamic stress field and its concentrations around holes of arbitrary shape in infinitely extended bodies under plane stress or plane strain conditions are numerically determined. The material may be linear elastic or viscoelastic, while the dynamic load consists of plane compressional waves of harmonic or general transient nature. The method consists of applying the Laplace transform with respect to time to the governing equations of motion and formulating and solving the problem numerically in the transfomed domain by the boundary integral equation method. The stress field can then be obtaind by a numerical inversion of the trasformed solution. The correspondence principle is invoked for the case of viscoelastic material behavious. The method is simplified for the case of harmonic waves where no numerical inversion is involved.

    Notes: The boundary integral method is formulated and applied using cubic spline interpolation along the boundary for both the geometry and the primary variables. The cubic spline interpolation has continuous first and second derivatives between elements, thus allowing the accurate calculation of derivative dependent functions (on the boundary) such as velocity in potential flow. The spline functions also smooth the geometry and can represent curved sections with fewer nodes.The results of numerical experiments indicate that the accuracy of the boundary integral equation method is improved for a given number of elements by using cubic spline interpolation. It is, however, necessary to use numerical quadrature. The quadrature slows calculation and/or degrades the accuracy. The numerical experiments indicate that most problems run faster for a given accuracy using linear interpolation. There seems to be a class of problems, however, which requires higher order interpolation and/or continuous derivatives for which the cubic spline interpolation works much better than linear interpolation.

    Notes: A series of algorithms, to solve the nonlinear algebraic equations resulting from nonlinear finite element models, are proposed. These algorithms involve a selective relaxation of the corrections defined by the modified Newton method. The resulting techniques accelerate the convergence of the modified Newton method. The improved convergence rate is obtained at the expense of a small increase in storage requirements. The results of numerical experiments, on certain nonlinear elasticity problems, are presented to verify the developed techniques.

    Notes: The analysis of axisymmetric structures in which geometric and material properties are independent of the circumferential co-ordinate, but for which loading may be dependent on this co-ordinate, is considered. The analysis is performed by expressing the field variables in a Fourier series and results in the solutions of a series of two-dimensional problems. The assumed-stress hybrid model is used and the element matrices for each harmonic are derived. To assess the procedure, two-4 node elements, differing in the form of the assumed stress field, are developed; both elements are shown to possess the correct rank. A series of example problems are considered, and the better of the two elements is identified.

    Notes: A curved triangular element for plate bending is developed, using the displacement method of formulation. The element has one outwardly curved side and conforms on an arbitrary quadratic boundary.To the user, the element appears as a single curved triangle. Internally, however, the element is subdivided into a straight-sided triangle and a ‘curved segment’. The straight-sided triangle is extensively documented in the literature2-5 and is referred to in the paper as the Cowper triangle. The curved segment is a two-noded element with 12 degrees-of-freedom. It has one straight side and one curved side.Independent expansions are assumed in each domain and explicit shape functions derived. The theoretical solution to a few practical problems is contained in each of the two expansions. In such cases, the curved triangle produces perfect results. Otherwise, the accuracy is of the same order as that obtained in similar problems with straight boundaries.The method is easily extended to elements of higher order.

    Notes: Finite element methods are formulated and investigated for the effectiveness factor problem for heat and mass transfer with chemical reactions in catalyst pellet models. A Galerkin finite element method is compared with a previous C1 collocation method7. A scheme that is conceptually intermediate between these two methods and accordingly has been termed collocation-Galerkin is formulated and numerical experiments considered. Of particular interest here are superconvergence results at the Gauss and Jacobi points, respectively. Numerical studies of superconvergence in the presence of a nonlinear reaction-rate term are presented. An integral formula is devised and used to compute the flux at the pellet surface to optimal accuracy. Numerical experiments are conducted to demonstrate the improvement in computed fluxes.

    Notes: A numerical analysis of the critical conditions of thermal ignition for a two-dimensional cylindrical reactor with flow field occurrence was carried out. The critical conditions of thermal ignition were defined as bifurcation points of the limit type. The dependence of the bifurcation points on aerodynamics was analysed by a sequential variation of the Peclet number. The flow field in the reactor was generated previously by a numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations.The nonlinear parabolic equation of heat balance and linear eigenvalue boundary problems occurring in the proposed non-stationary method for calculating the bifurcation points was solved numerically using the finite difference technique.It was shown that the critical points of thermal ignition form a surface bounded by the line of ‘limit of criticality’ in the parameter space. For large values of the Peclet number, the dependence of the critical parameter of ignition on Peclet number becomes linear.

    Notes: The upwinded finite element method was introduced for the solution of conduction-convection problems by considering the model problem, u″-Ku′=0, K〉0, subject to the boundary conditions u(0)=1, u(1)=0. In this paper we consider the solution of this problem by the collocation method using piecewise cubic Hermite polynomials and a uniform grid. We consider the collocation points to be arbitrary parameters which enable us to express the collocation points in terms of the upwinding parameter of the upwinded finite element method. Various choices of the collocation points, including values which lead to complete accuracy in the nodal function values as well as the nodal values of the derivatives are discussed. Finally, we discuss the application of these points to slightly more general problems. Numerical results illustrating the behaviour of these points are given.

    Notes: The extension of a combined finite element-transfer matrix method to problems governed by quasi-harmonic equations is presented.Particular emphasis is given to heat conduction, and numerical results are presented for this type of problem (steady and transient cases).The principal advantage of the method with respect to finite elements concerns the minor dimension of the last matrix formulation which quite often implies a reduced computational burden.The accuracy of the method is considered by comparing the numerical results with some available analytical solutions for slabs: an excellent agreement is effectively obtained.No particular restrictions to the application of the method exist, and quite complex systems may be considered, provided that a suitable subdivision into strips and elements of the relevant region is carried out.

    Notes: A numerical procedure developed for solving the two-dimensional elastic contact problems with friction is presented. This is a generalization of a procedure developed by Francavilla and Zienkiewicz to include frictional effects under proportionate loading. The method uses the flexibility matrix obtained by inversion of condensed stiffness matrix formed by eliminating all the nodes except those where contact is likely to take place and those with external forces. Compatibility of displacements for both normal and tangential directions is applied to those nodes which do not slip. However, for the nodes which slip, compatibility of displacements is applied for normal direction only and slip condition is applied in the tangential direction. The technique has been applied to several problems and very good results have been obtained. The number of iterations needed are very small.

    Notes: Quadratic and cubic quadrilateral isoparametric elements are investigated for use as transition elements for use a crack tip elements. Computations for a single element are explicitly carried out using a symbolic algebraic manipulation program and in addition to the desired square root singularity, additional singularities are revealed. Cubic transitional elements were used for a double-edge crack problem and only marginal improvement is found for a well-laid out grid.

    Notes: For computing the collapse state of a perfect plastic continuum we suggest a mixed finite element approximation to the infinite dimensional mathematical programming problem of limit analysis. The convergence of the limit load to the exact solution is discussed, as well as solution methods for the discrete problem. Finally the method is applied to a classical problem in plane strain.

    Notes: An easy to use stability test is presented for finite elements which are under- or selectively-integrated. This test is reminiscent of the patch test in that it must be applied only to one prototype element, and it is a sufficient test for the nonsingularity of the global coefficient matrix. The minimum number of integration points which can be used with each of several common one-, two- and three-dimensional elements for a variety of steady-state and time-dependent, scalar boundary value problems are given.

    Notes: Global and element residuals are introduced to determine a posteriori, computable, error bounds for finite element computations on a given mesh. The element residuals provide a criterion for determining where a finite element mesh requires refinement. This indicator is implemented in an algorithm in a finite element research program. There it is utilized to automatically refine the mesh for sample two-point problems exhibiting boundary layer and interior layer solutions. Results for both linear and nonlinear problems are presented. An important aspect of this investigation concerns the use of adaptive refinement in conjunction with iterative methods for system solution. As the mesh is being enriched through the refinement process, the solution on a given mesh provides an accurate starting iterate for the next mesh, and so on. A wide range of iterative methods are examined in a feasibility study and strategies for interweaving refinement and iteration are compared.

    Notes: For plate bending analysis, both discrete and non-discrete mixed methods are presented by using spline functions in the Hellinger-Reissner variational principle. Piecewise spline interpolation with local supports and overall spline interpolation with boundary knots are applied to each of two mixed functionals. The prescribed boundary conditions can be considered by multiple boundary knots. The convergence behaviour of the mixed methods presented is studied. Numerical examples show that a high degree of accuracy can be obtained due to continuous properties in the high derivatives of the employed shape functions. The proposed mixed methods are found to be very competitive with other numerical methods for plate bending problems.

    Notes: PVC has been cyclopentadienylated by two conventional basic, LiCp and NaCp, and a new acidic, Me2CpAl, cyclopentadienylating agent. PVCs treated with basic cyclopentadienylating agents undergo severe random dehydrochlorination and exhibit a significant decrease in thermal and thermooxidative stability. In contrast, according to ozonization and degradation experiments, Me2CpAl does not cause dehydrochlorination during cyclopentadienylation. The thermal stability of PVC treated with relatively high concentrations of Me2CpAl and Me3Al at 25°C markedly increases due to substitution of labile chlorines in PVC with methyl groups. Initial thermal dehydrochlorination behavior of virgin PVC and samples treated with Me2CpAl at -30°C are similar. In contrast, thermooxidative stability decreases on Me2CpAl treatment at -30°C; this is attributed to ease of oxidation of pendant cyclopentadienyl groups; that is, the formation of peroxy radicals that may initiate dehydrochlorination by attacking unchanged repeat units in PVC. Acceleration of thermal dehydrochlorination disappears and the length of polyene sequences is reduced on Me2CpAl and Me3Al treatment. These observations are attributed to differences in rates of protonation-deprotonation; that is, rates of reinitation of zipping of treated and untreated PVCs during thermal degration. The effect of traces of aluminum residues on degradation of modified PVCs, however, cannot be neglected.

    Notes: Poly(p-phenylene) was alkylated with n-propyl bromide, n-propyl chloride, and isopropyl bromide in the presence of aluminum chloride. Apparently, the reactions involve dialkylation with n-propyl halides and alternating mono- and dialkylation with isopropyl bromide. Alkylation with ethyl or n-butyl bromide was unsuccessful. The dialkylated polymer was sufficiently soluble to allow molecular weight determination. Mechanistic aspects of alkylation and propagation are treated.

    Notes: The influence of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), a steric stabilizer, and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), an electrostatic stabilizer, on the stability of styrene dispersion polymerized systems was studied. It was shown that in stabilization by PVA there was pronounced bridging of the submicron emulsion particles to 10-μ dispersion particles and that the emulsion particles could not be washed off. In SDS stabilization, on the other hand, the emulsion formed was easily washed off because bridging with SDS does not occur. The surface tension of the aqueous phase measured during polymerization showed different characteristics for stable and unstable systems.

    Notes: The formation mechanism of an “asymmetric” porous structure for the film cast from ethyl acrylate-methyl methacrylate copolymer emulsion prepared by emulsifire-free emulsion polymerization was investigated. The formation of this structure was affected by the emulsion stability which was varied by the postaddition of sodium sulfate or sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate. It is concluded that it is derived from the production of porous skin film at the emulsion-air interface and the precipitation of flocculated particles at the bottom of emulsion during drying process.

    Notes: Ultraviolet (UV) spectrophotometry was used to study the kinetics of basic hydrolysis of side groups in polyphenylmethacrylate in DMSO/H2O at various temperatures. Keller's mathematical analysis was applied to the description of the kinetics. Three rate constants which describe the reaction of ester groups with 0, 1, and 2 reacted neighboring groups, respectively, were determined. Activation energies for the hydrolysis reaction of the respective triads were calculated. The data confirmed the applicability of Keller's model to the computation of rate constants for the reaction of the respective triads in the polymer chain.

    Notes: Block copolymers of styrene and 2-vinylpyridine of different molecular weights were synthesized and chemically modified to poly(vinyl pyridine)/poly(styrene sulfonate) or polystyrene/poly(2-vinyl pyridinium) salts. Adsorption on “Spherosil” silica with a high specific surface area was performed from aqueous solutions of polyelectrolyte copolymers or from noncharged copolymer in an organic medium and subsequent sulfonation or quaternization in the adsorbed state. The adsorption mechanism was studied under various solvent conditions to give silica maximal ion-exchange properties. Modification of silica resulted in a highly stable coated material which combines the mechanical properties of the porous beads and the ion-exchange properties of the “supported” and “pellicular” ion-exchangers and should have potential use in chromatography.

    Notes: A polyurethane based on diphenyl methane diisocyanate (MDI) and propoxylated trimethylol propane was thermally degraded by using the techniques of pyrolysis and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) in an inert atmosphere. Identification of pyrolysis gaseous products at 600°C showed that the first degradation step consists of a reversal of the polycondensation process, i.e., dissociation into starting polyol and diisocyanate, followed by the polyol degradation and a probable diisocyanate polymerization. Kinetic parameters were determined using dynamic and isothermal TGA curves. It is shown that the degradation can be closely compared with a random chain scission process.

    Notes: The unit cell and probable space group of Nylon 5,7 has been determined. The unit cell is monoclinic with the dimensions a = 0.483 nm, b = 0.935 nm, c = 1.662 nm, and γ = 58.9°. The space group is probably Pb which is noncentrosymmetric. Rolled, annealed samples show three-dimensional orientation. The melting point peak of a rapidly cooled sample is about 213°C when it is heated at 20°C/min. Slow cooling, ≤°1°C/min generates a higher melting species, Tm = 228°C. Crystallinities are in the normal nylon range, up to 50% for a slow cooled sample.

    Notes: Fully aromatic polyamide containing pyridine moieties (PPy) were successfully synthesized either by interfacial or solution polycondensation to prepare polyamide with inherent viscosity as high as 4. Solution properties of PPy in sulfuric acid were investigated in terms of solution viscosity and lyotropic behavior. The polyamide had a better solubility in sulfuric acid than in poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide) (PT) and the PPy solution in sulfuric acid exhibited an optically anisotropic property in a wider range of concentrations at relatively low temperatures in comparison with the PT solution. Viscosities of the PPy solution and the film cast from the PPy solution indicated a phenomenon characteristic of a highly oriented rigid polymer molecule caused by a lyotropic behavior.

    Notes: Gel formation usually occurs in crosslinking systems during polymerization. The critical conversion in this process is dependent on the reactivity ratios of the different kinds of double bond in the system and on the tendency to cyclization. In this article a procedure for estimating the gel point for small amounts of a symmetric divinyl compound is shown in measurements of the degree of polymerization at different conversions. A method is also given to relate the reactivity ratio of the pendent double bonds to the amount of cyclization and to the degree of multiple crosslinking. In m-divinylbenzene/styrene the results indicate that about 10% of the pendent double bonds is consumed by cyclization due to backbiting of the primary chain, whereas an initial effective crosslink results in about seven multiple crosslink bonds.

    Notes: The mechanism of two-dimensional polymerization of octadecyl acrylate in lamellar crystal was investigated in two-step postpolymerizations by temperature increase and stepwiseγ-ray irradiation in lieu of the usual one-step reaction. Two-step postpolymerizations by these procedures are interpreted satisfactorily by the cone model, which assumes that the polymerization probability of the monomer molecules in a single layer is distributed conically around the initiation point. It was found that the propagating radicals were living, even in the saturated stage, and the effect of the polymer chains already formed on the propagating and terminating reactions was evident. Furthermore, molecular weight distributions of the resultant poly(octadecyl acrylate) measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) were broad. The values of Mw/Mn for the two-step post polymerizations were 4.71-7.03, whereas those for one-step reactions were 3.26-5.54.

    Notes: The chlorination of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) was investigated by using deuterated polymeric models of PVC, viz., α-deuterated PVC (α-d-PVC) and β,β-dideuterated PVC (β,β-d2-PVC). The chlorinated samples of PVC, α-d-PVC, and β,β-d2-PVC were examined by combining infrared (IR), 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and mass spectroscopy. The results obtained were used in a study of the reaction mechanism of PVC chlorination. The selectivity of chlorination and the extent of the substitution and elimination-addition mechanism of chlorination are discussed with respect to the degree of chlorination and chlorination conditions.

    Notes: The relative reactivity of acrylic acid is known to be influenced by the polymerization medium. Nonetheless, the more commonly used reactivity ratios do not show this dependence because they were calculated from low-conversion polymerizations. We have studied the copolymerization of acrylic acid and methyl methacrylate in a number of non-hydrogen-bonding and hydrogen-bonding solvents. We found that the acrylic acid fraction in the copolymer was larger when copolymerized in a non-hydrogen-bonding medium and that the methyl methacrylate fraction was larger when copolymerized in a hydrogen-bonding medium. The precise reactivity ratios were reported when toluene, benzene, isopentyl, acetate, ethyl acetate, methyl formate, and tert-butyl alcohol were used as the polymerization medium. The values were obtained by chromatographic analysis of residual monomer, followed by computation based on the nonlinear, least-squares technique of Tidwell and Mortimer.

    Notes: Red onion skin is highly effective for binding heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions. Color leaching can be prevented and the physical characteristics of the substrate can be improved by treatment with formaldehyde in an acidic medium. Batch and column experiments have been conducted with Cu2+, Cd2+, Zn2+, Ni2+, Hg2+, and Pb2+. Almost quantitative removal of the metal ions from solution can be achieved by using columns of the treated onion skin. Competition of the various metal ions for the substrate has been investigated. The capacity of the substrate in the majority of the metal ions studied is well above 1 meq/g. The use of polymerized onion skin to remove heavy metal ions from domestic and industrial wastewater to safe levels has been recommended as a cheap and effective alternative for commercial ion-exchange resins.

    Notes: The in-source polymerization of octadecyl acrylate in the lamellar crystal (hexagonal packing) by γ-ray irradiation has been investigated, as compared with the two-step and one-step postpolymerizations. The viscosity-average molecular weight is very high even in the initial stage and is practically saturated after 3-5 hr, although the conversion increases successively with time. The molecular weight distribution of poly(octadecyl acrylate) obtained by in-source polymerization is very wide (Mw/Mn = 13.1, at 20°C). The results of in-source polymerization of the long-chain vinyl compounds can be interpreted using the cone model for polymerization probability, similar to those of one-step and two-step postpolymerizations.

    Notes: The aqueous polymerization of acrylonitrile initiated by the bromate - ferrous redox system in aqueous sulfuric acid was studied under nitrogen atmosphere. The rate of polymerization increased with increasing concentration of ferrous in the range of 0.25-1 × 10-2M. The percentage of conversion increased with increasing concentration of the catalyst, but beyond 2.5 × 10-3M there was a decreasing trend in the rate of polymerization. The rate varied linearly with [monomer]. The initial rate of polymerization as well as the maximum conversion increased within the range of 1-2.5 × 10-3M KBrO3, but beyond 2.5 × 10-3M the rate of polymerization decreased. The initial rate and limiting conversion increased with increasing polymerization temperature in the range 30-40°C; beyond 40°C they decreased. The effect of certain neutral salts, water-miscible solvents, complexing agents, and copper sulfate concentration on the rate of polymerization was investigated.

    Notes: The reaction of 1,3-cycloheptadiene (1,3-CHpD) with acrylonitrile (AN) in the presence of ZnCl2 leads spontaneously to the simultaneous formation of an alternating copolymer and a small amount of cycloadduct. The copolymer has a predominantly cis-1,4-structure. The formation of the charge - transfer complex between 1,3-CHpD and (AN)c (AN coordinated to ZnCl2) in AN was detected by ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy. The activation energies for the cycloaddition and for the copolymerization under the conditions used were determined to be 17.6 (in the presence of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) and 16.3 kcal/mole, respectively. The rate of copolymerization in AN was found to depend on the 1.5th power of the concentrations of (AN)c and of 1,3-CHpD. Oxygen and UV irradiation causes an acceleration of the copolymerization only. On the basis of these results the mechanism of the spontaneous copolymerization is discussed and its relation to the cycloaddition in systems of 1,3-cyclodienes and AN in the presence of ZnCl2 is mentioned.

    Notes: Polymerization of acrylonitrile and methyl methacrylate by the redox systems propanedinitrile-Mn(III) in aqueous sulfuric acid and propanedinitrile-Mn(OAc)3 in DMF and glacial acetic acid was investigated in the temperature range 20-40°C. The kinetics are consistent with the formation of an intermediate complex whose irreversible decomposition yields the initiating radical. With both monomers mutual termination predominates. The main difference between aqueous H2SO4 and acetic acid compared with DMF lies in the ease of oxidation of the primary radicals by the oxidant. Rate and equilibrium parameters were estimated and their significance discussed.

    Notes: This investigation deals with the nature and relative abundance of stable radicals formed by gamma-irradiation of wheat starch at room temperature. Additions of equal weights of water, methanol, and ethanol were equally effective in reducing the content of stable radicals in starch which contained about 12% water before the additions. When, however, the starting material was dried starch with 2.9% initial water content additional water and methanol were better radical scavengers than ethanol. This difference is attributed to the superior ability of water and methanol to permeate the starch structure. Superficially different ESR spectra were obtained in products made by irradiating starch and starch that contained added water or methanol. Computer simulation of these spectra showed that they could be matched by superposition of the spectra of the same four component radicals, with some adjustments of relative intensities and peak widths. The structures of these radicals have been dedueed from the spectral assignments and relative effects of the three solvents used on the intensities of the respective ESR spectra.

    Notes: New phenoxaphosphine-containing polyamide-imides were prepared by cyclodehydration of the polyamide-amic acids obtained from 8-chloroformyl-10-phenylphenoxaphosphine-2,3-dicarboxylic anhydride 10-oxide and diamines by a low-temperature solution polycondensation. Polymers with reduced viscosities of 0.10-0.59 dl/g in DMA or concentrated H2SO4 at 30°C were obtained in 64-97% yields. All the polyamide-imides were soluble in m-cresol, concentrated H2SO4, and dichloroacetic acid and some of them were soluble in DMF, DMA, and DMSO; the polyamide-imides had better solubility in organic solvents than phenoxaphosphine-containing polyimides. The phenoxaphosphine-containing polyamide-imides derived from aromatic diamines exhibited excellent thermal properties and little degradation below about 400°C, whereas the polymers from aliphatic diamines began to lose weight at about 250°C. They appeared to have thermal stability between phenoxaphosphine-containing polyimides and polyamides. These polyamide-imides exhibited self-extinguishing behavior.

    Notes: The behavior of viologen polymer (P-V2+) as an electron transfer catalyst in the reaction of hydrogen generation was studied. In the photoirradiation system, which contains triethanolamine (TEA), Ru(bpy)3+3, and P-V2+, the amount of hydrogen evolution was less than methyl viologen (MV2+); P-V2+, however, was more effective in sodium dithionite as the electron donor and showed higher initial rates than MV2+.

    Notes: Solvent-extracted spruce wood meal was ozonized in 45% aqueous acetic acid at room temperature. The ozone-treated wood meal was then extracted with dilute alkali at 65°C for 1 h. Lignin, α-cellulose, and hemicellulose content and the viscosities of the pulped wood-meal samples were measured as a function of the time of ozonization. Results indicate that although the attack on the wood components by ozone is not selective in this medium cellulose and hemicelluloses are degraded slowly compared with lignin. Lignin degraded approximately four times faster than the carbohydrates. At the fiber liberation point the pulp retained 78% of the original hemicelluloses and about 90% of the α-cellulose compared with 25% of the lignin. The pulp samples obtained during ozonization of the wood meal showed a slow decrease in the average degree of polymerization (DP); the limit reached near 350 was attributed to the inaccessibility of the ordered regions in native cellulose to ozone.

    Notes: The cyclopolycondensation of linear bis-β-diketones with aromatic dihydrazines in dimethyl sulfoxide at 100-150°C produced a series of aromatic polypyrazoles with inherent viscosities up to 0.6 dL/g. All the polymers were highly soluble in a wide range of solvents, which included tetrahydrofuran and chloroform. The polypyrazoles showed excellent thermal stability with 10% weight loss at 410-490°C in air and nitrogen atmosphere.

    Notes: The composition and gross structural features of plasma polymer films prepared by inductively coupled RF plasmas excited in pentafluorobenzene were investigated by ESCA as a function of the operating parameters. The rate of film deposition is dependent on the W/FM parameter and on site of deposition. The polymer formed in the glow region shows only small variations in structure as a function of power and pressure. Polymer films deposited in the regions away from the site of primary excitation typically have a higher fluorine content than those formed in the coil region; the stoichiometry for the latter is comparable to that of the starting material.
