    Notizen: Abstract The amount of DNA in ancient bone was determined by ethidium bromide staining after the removal of the potent Taq inhibitor, fulvic acid. A complete decalcification and a perfusion protocol were used to recover DNA from bone. A variety of purification techniques including molecular sieve, hydroxyapatite binding and ‘Magic’ preparations yielded DNA that spanned from 3.4μg/g of bone to below detectable limits. Fulvic acid was shown to interfere with the quantification of DNA derived from ancient human skeletal material one hundred to over seven thousand years old. Scanning UV in the 300 to 230 nm range is a simple and sensitive technique for documenting fulvic acid contamination in ancient bone extracts.

    Notizen: Summary Homocysteine (HC) is a radiation protector but toxic to bone. Its derivative homocysteine thiolactone (HCTL) and the alpha-alkylated analogue (A-methyl-HCTL) was fed to mice for a period of six weeks in a daily dose of 50 mg/kg body weight. Parameters for bone matrix as collagen content, acid solubility of bone collagen, urinary bone collagen cross links (pyridinolines) and urinary acid glycosaminoglycans were determined. Urinary acid glycosaminoglycans were significantly reduced in the HCTL treated group but not in the alpha-methyl-homocysteine thiolactone (A-methyl-HCTL) group (controls: 45 ± 7 mg/mmol creatinine, homocysteine thiolactone 38 ± 5 mg/mmol creatinine, A-methyl HCTL 45 ± 6 mg/mmol creatinine). No differences were found for the parameters of bone collagen between the groups. The potent radiation protecting methylated derivative therefore did not change bone matrix and should be a candidate for further toxicological studies.

    Notizen: Abstract Parathyroid crisis occurring in primary hyperparathyroidism is characteized by extremely high circulating levels of parathyroid hormone and acute onset of severe hypercalcemia. We describe a 62-year-old woman with parathyroid crisis probably due to an intraturnoral hemorrhage. Renal dysfunction reduced the effectiveness of preoperative management and continued to deteriorate for 5 days after parathyroidectomy. The normalization of serum calcium after parathyroidectomy delayed and it took 6 days. Maintenance of renal function is important for pre- and postoperative courses of the present case. The rapid decrease in serum parathyroid hormone after parathyroidectomy was followed by a rapid and transient (about fivefold) increase in serum alkaline phosphatase with peak value on the 10th postoperative day. This indicated that reversal phase from bone resorption (accelerated by parathyroid hormone) to bone formation lasted about 10 days under the conditions of the present case.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Zusammenfassung Für eine vergleichende Untersuchung von Knochen und Weichgewebe als Quellenmaterial für DNA-Analysen wurden südamerikanische, präkolumbische, männliche Mumien verwendet. Die Eignung der DNA-Extrakte beider Quellen wurde über ihre Effektivität als Ziel-DNA in PCR-Amplifikationen bewertet. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, daß bei Verwendung stark degradierten Materials Knochen den Weichgeweben für PCR-Analysen vorzuziehen sind. Dies scheint unabhängig von der spezifischen anatomischen Herkunft der Proben zu sein.
    Notizen: Abstract South american precolumbian male mummies were employed as source material for a comparative investigation of bone and soft tissues by DNA analysis. The suitability of the DNA extracts from both sources was tested and evaluated by their effectiveness as target DNA in PCR amplifications. The results suggest that skeletal material should be given preference over soft tissues for PCR analysis if the material is severely degraded. This seems to be independent of the specific anatomical origin of the samples.

    Notizen: Summary A protocol to extract and purify osteopontin, a protein with cell adhesion and mineral-crystal binding properties, from mineral-associated tissues is described. This procedure provides for the complete separation of osteopontin from bone sialoprotein, a mineralized tissue-specific protein with similar properties to that of osteopontin.

    Notizen: Abstract In an analysis of the 3D architecture of cancellous bone, two-dimensional techniques are of limited value. A simple technique employing stereophotographs of whole sections of lumbar vertebrate made possible a detailed description of the 3D structure of the normal fourth lumbar vertebral body and its changes with ageing and osteoporosis. Parallax measurements were used to calculate the real lengths of horizontal trabeculae. The bone presented a continuous spectrum of microstructure, from a honeycomb of tubes, to plates and braces and, finally, fragile rods. A distinct pattern was produced in osteoporotic samples by the removal of horizontal and selected vertical trabeculae followed by a thickening of the remaining vertical trabeculae in the peripheral regions. Very long, thin horizontal trabeculae were formed in all three zones (superior, middle and inferior) during this process. The observation of porotic architecture in intact specimens points to the inadequacy of the clinical criterion of the occurrence of a fracture in judging the osteoporotic state.

    Notizen: Abstract In the normal adult human skeleton, new bone formation by osteoblasts restores the contours of bone surfaces following osteoclastic bone resorption, but the evidence for resorption-repair coupling remains circumstantial. To investigate whether sites of prior resorption, more than the surrounding unresorbed surface, attract osteoblasts or stimulate them to proliferate or make new matrix, we developed a simple in vitro system in which resorption-repair coupling occurs. Resorption pits were produced in mammalian dentine or bone slabs by culturing chick bone-derived cells on them for 2–3 days. The chick cells were swept off and the substrata reseeded with rat calvarial osteoblastic cells, which make bone nodules in vitro, for periods of up to 8 weeks. Cell positions and new bone formation were investigated by ordinary light microscopy, fluorescence and reflection confocal laser microscopy, and SEM, in stained and unstained samples. There was no evidence that the osteoblasts were especially attracted to, or influenced by, the sites of resorption in dentine or bone before cell confluence was reached. Bone formation was identified by light microscopy by the accumulation of matrix, staining with alizarin and calcein and by von Kossa's method, and confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) by using backscattered electron (BSE) and transmitted electron imaging of unembedded samples and BSE imaging of micro-milled embedded material. These new bone patches were located initially in the resorption pits. The model in vitro system may throw new light on the factors that control resorption-repair coupling in the mineralised tissues in vivo.

    Notizen: Abstract This paper describes the development and tissues in mineralized ossicles in the musculature of Perca flavescens infected with metacercariae of the trematode Apophallus brevis. Analysis involved light microscopy, transmission and scanning electron microscopy, X-ray scanning electron microprobe analysis, and tetracycline labelling. Two to 14 days post-infection, fibroblast-like host cells stream towards the parasite cyst forming a fusiform cellular capsule. By 14 days post-infection the capsule differentiates into an inner hypertrophied layer, an extensive middle layer of fibroblast-like cells, and a thin outer layer of flattened fibroblast-like cells forming a fibrous sheath at the capsule/muscle interface. From 21–35 days post-infection, a bony tissue is deposited periosteally in an equatorial ring around the cyst. With time, additional tissue is secreted over the ring increasing its thickness and advancing the matrix front towards the poles of the ossicle. Plump osteoblast-like cells cover the developing ossicle and may become trapped within the matrix in lacunae encapsulated by collagen. By 63 days post-infection, medium-sized ossicles are morphologically similar to large cysts from perch captured in the wild; ovoid with two polarized canals, but lacking acellular or lamellar bone-like tissue. Mineralized ossicles contain calcium, phosphorus and oxygen. Large ossicles retrieved from perch given multiple doses of tetracycline revealed discrete fluorescent bands, indicative of incremental growth. Fully developed ossicles are composed of two skeletal tissues, an inner region of chondroid bone and an outer region of acellular, lamellar bone.

    Notizen: Abstract Magnesium (Mg) participates in the normal formation and remodeling of bone. However, little is known about effects of Mg status on the biomechanical function of bone. We examined gross morphometry and composition as well as biomechanical properties of the femurs of male rats fed diets adequate or deficient in Mg. Comparison of deficient animals and controls yielded a number of differences (all significant at P〈0.05). Mg-depleted animals exhibited slow growth, inefficient food utilization, and greatly reduced concentrations of Mg in both serum and femur ash. Compared with controls, femurs from depleted animals were shorter, but wet weights, diameters, and midfemoral cross-sectional areas showed no differences. Bone length was reduced to a greater degree than could be accounted for by differences in body weights between the groups. Bones of Mg-deficient rats contained less dry matter and less ash (which contained more Ca/g) than those of controls, along with a higher percentage of moisture. Significantly reduced bone strength in depleted animals was evident from the lighter loads supported at the elastic limit (yield point) and at fracture and from decreased stresses accompanying those loads. Modulus of elasticity, however, was not affected by Mg depletion. Different yield and breaking loads were related to different body weights of groups, but stresses were reduced for deficient bones even after adjusting for body size. Our data establish abnormal biomechanical behavior of cortical bone in Mg-deficient animals and emphasize the importance of measuring such functional properties of bone in the assessment of responses to altered metabolic conditions under experimental conditions.

    Notizen: Abstract Ultrasound transmission measurement through the os calcis is an emerging technique and a promising clinical tool for early assessment of osteoporosis. However, several previous studies showed that broadband ultrasonic attenuation (BUA) is sensitive to small variations in bone mass or structure. The os calcis is an inhomogeneous bone and therefore, the attenuation depends on the location in the os calcis. BUA distribution within the os calcis can be measured by rectilinear scanning over the entire bone. We used a mechanical scanning device with both unfocused and focused transducers. The spatial resolution of these was about 25 mm and 4 mm, respectively. There was good agreement (r=0.97) between the results with unfocused and focused transducers. In addition, imaging the variations of BUA is possible with the focused transducers, and high quality images are obtained. These images permit the selection of optimal regions of interest for ultrasound attenuation measurement.

    Notizen: Abstract In women before and after the age of peak bone mass, identical values of bone mineral density (BMD) can be obtained. However, there is a much higher incidence of osteoporotic fractures in older women. We investigated whether a deterioration of bone material quality with increasing age might contribute to this phenomenon. Material properties of bone tissue can be characterized by the modulus of elasticity, which is correlated to the square of sound transmission velocity. In this study, sound transmission velocity was determined in cortical bone by measuring the frequency of resonance in the ulna in the direction of the bone's longitudinal axis and correcting the values by multiplying by ulna length. Validation of this method indicated acceptable reproducibility: interobserver variability determined as the mean coefficient of variation was 1.82%. In a clinical study, 21 young women (22.5±1.2 years old) were compared with 21 middle-aged women (52.9±2.7 years old). Pairs were matched that had identical values of BMD in the nondominant forearm at a location representing mainly cortical bone (SPA). The product of ulna length and frequency of resonance in the ulna in the younger women was found to be 61.4±5.8 m/second, and in the middle-aged women 55.7±4.5 m/second. The difference was highly significant with P〈0.005. Our results confirm recent findings indicating a deterioration of bone material quality independent of BMD with increasing age. As shown by comparing ulna width at the site of measurement of bone mineral density between both groups of women, the deterioration of bone material quality in ulnar cortical bone with increasing age might at least in part be functionally compensated by an increase of the moment of inertia due to greater bone width [8, 10].

    Notizen: Abstract Helodermin and helospectin are peptides structurally similar to vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) which were recently isolated from the salivary gland venom of the lizard Heloderma suspectum. Pituitary adenylate cyclaseactivating polypeptide (PACAP) has been isolated from ovine hypothalamus and also shows sequence homology to VIP. A helodermin-like peptide has been detected by combined immunohistochemical and immunochemical techniques in the thyroid C-cells. In the present study, lizard helodermin was found to cause a time- and dose-dependent stimulation of cyclic AMP (cAMP) formation in neonatal mouse calvarial bones. Also, helospectin I, PACAP 27, and the C-terminally extended PACAP 38 stimulated cAMP accumulation in the mouse calvariae. The cAMP rise in response to helodermin was comparable to that induced by VIP, both in terms of potency and magnitude of the response. Helodermin, helospectin I, PACAP 27, and PACAP 38, at concentrations of 1 μmol/liter, stimulated cAMP accumulation in enzymatically isolated mouse calvarial bone cells. A significant response to all peptides was observed in both early and late released bone cells isolated from the calvariae, with low and high alkaline phosphatase activity, respectively. Helodermin and VIP stimulated cAMP accumulation in the cloned mouse calvarial osteoblastic cell line MC3T3-E1, in rat (UMR 106-01), and human (Saos-2) osteoblastic osteosarcoma cell lines, but not in the rat osteosarcoma cell line ROS 17/2.8. The effect of helodermin was synergistically and dose-dependently enhanced by forskolin (0.1 and 1 μmol/liter). These data show that bone cells, including osteoblasts, respond to several peptides of the VIP family, including helodermin, helospectin I, PACAP 27, and PACAP 38. Whether the responses are mediated via one or several receptor populations remains to be established. The finding that VIP and helodermin, at maximally effective concentrations, did not cause additive effect on cAMP formation in intact mouse calvariae suggests that these two agonists may use a common receptor.

    Notizen: Abstract Both interleukin-1α (IL-1α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) are powerful stimulators of bone resorption in vivo and in vitro. Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) binds to many interleukin-1 receptors. It does not activate the receptor and effectively blocks the action of IL-1α and IL-1β. In this study, human recombinant IL-1ra, at 100-fold excess, was found to block bone resorption in cultured mouse calvaria due to IL-1β but not IL-1α. These observations may be explained by differential affinities of receptors for IL-1α, IL-1β and rhIL-1ra on target bone cells.

    Notizen: Abstract Low energy electromagnetic fields (EMF) exhibit a large number of biological effects. A major issue to be determined is “What is the lowest threshold of detection in which cells can respond to an EMF?” In these studies we demonstrate that a low-amplitude combined magnetic field (CMF) which induces a maximum potential gradient of 10-5 V/m is capable of increasing net calcium flux in human osteoblast-like cells. The increase in net calcium flux was frequency dependent, with a peak in the 15.3–16.3 Hz range with an apparent bandwidth of approximately 1 Hz. A model that characterizes the thermal noise limit indicates that nonspherical cell shape, resonant type dynamics, and signal averaging may all play a role in the transduction of lowamplitude EMF effects in biological systems.

    Notizen: Abstract It has long been thought that collagen fibers within the bone matrix are deposited in an aligned pattern that channels mineral growth. If this model of bone structure is correct, both organic and inorganic phases of bone should have similar elastic anisotropy. Using an acoustic microscope, we measured longitudinal and transverse acoustic velocities of cortical specimens taken from 10 dog femurs before and after removal of either the mineral (using 10% EDTA) or collagen phases (using 7% sodium hypochlorite) and calculated longitudinal (CL) and transverse (CT) elastic coefficients. The anisotropy ratio (CL/CT) decreased significantly after demineralization (1.61 before versus 1.06 after, P〈0.0001, paired t-test). However, there was no significant change after decollagenization (1.51 before versus 1.48 after, P=0.617, paired t-test). We conclude that the orientation of mineral crystals is the primary determinant of bone anisotropy, and the collagen matrix within osteonal bone has little directional orientation.

    Notizen: Abstract The present study was undertaken to reveal the magnesium distribution in human bone. Sixty human ribs, obtained from subjects aged 10–80 years of age, were used. Transverse sections were prepared from the middle region of the human ribs. Adjacent sections were ground to a thickness of about 1000 μm. One section was used for magnesium determination by atomic absorption spectrophotometry, and the other was used for analysis with X-ray microanalysis. Thirty micron thick samples were abraded continuously from the periosteal and the endosteal surfaces by abrasive microsampling, as previously described by Weatherell et al. [3]. Results showed that magnesium concentrations were higher in both the periosteal and endosteal surfaces and did not change with age in general, although it tended to be higher among teenagers and lower over 80 years old.

    Notizen: Abstract A computer model of trabecular bone turnover has been developed, based on concepts of Jonathan Reeve [1]. This model predicts changes in bone volume by summing bone resorption and formation over a large number of remodeling sites. Clinical data [histomorphometry and bone mineral content (BMC)] from two clinical studies using an antiresorptive drug (etidronate disodium, EHDP) in post-menopausal osteoporosis were used to test the model. The results for BMC obtained from the EHDP and placebo groups in each study at 60 and 120 weeks were correctly predicted by the model from the histomorphometric data obtained from baseline and week 60 biopsies. The parameter in this model having the greatest influence on predicted changes in bone volume was found by sensitivity analysis to be activation frequency. These results suggest that the contribution of bone turnover to BMC can be predicted solely by considering the cell kinetics of the basic multicellular unit (BMU), and that, in the case of antiresorptive drugs, maximal effects on bone volume may be achieved by pharmacological reduction of activation frequency. The results also suggest that the present model may be useful in predicting in clinical studies the effects of EHDP and similar drugs on bone turnover.

    Notizen: Abstract The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of exercise on the serum concentrations of intact parathyroid hormone (PTH). Serum PTH and plasma lactate were measured in 15 well-trained men, 9 long-distance runners and 6 fire-fighters, during two running exercises. Test one consisted of 40-minute treadmill running with a stepwise increased load and test two consisted of 50-minute treadmill running with a constant velocity. When the load was step-wise increased, the PTH concentrations increased moderately at the slower running paces but reached a final value that was about 50% higher than the starting value. This rise occurred despite a concomitant increase of total serum calcium from 2.38±0.06 to 2.49±0.05 mmol/liter (P〈0.01). During the constant running exercise, the long-distance runners, but not the fire-fighters, displayed a significant increase in PTH concentrations although the rise in total serum calcium was similar in both groups. There was a weak correlation between the changes in PTH and lactate in both exercises. The findings demonstrate that both high and low intensity exercise enhance release of PTH in long-distance runners through a mechanism that does not involve serum calcium. This relationship might be of importance for bone mass in men performing long-distance training.

    Notizen: Abstract During intermittent cyclical etidronate treatment, a lower extremity pain syndrome associated with stress fractures was observed in three osteoporotic patients. This report describes the development of stress fractures during initial cycles of treatment, with recurrence of symptoms in two patients when etidronate therapy was resumed. Further studies are needed to confirm whether stress fractures are associated with cyclic etidronate treatment and if so, the incidence and pathophysiology need to be determined.

    Notizen: Abstract We compared the effect of orally administered 100 mg of hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) among eight patients with pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) type I, 11 patients with idiopathic hypoparathyroidism (IHP), and 12 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (1oHPT). Patients with PHP type I or with IHP were studied during the treatment with 1α-hydroxylated metabolites of vitamin D3. HCTZ raised serum levels of calcium (Ca) in 1oHPT (P〈0.001) and PHP type I (P〈0.01) but did not increase urinary excretion of Ca. Serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) in PHP type I decreased (P〈0.02) after HCTZ administration in response to the increase in serum Ca. HCTZ did not raise serum levels of Ca in IHP but increased urinary excretion of Ca in this group (P〈0.01). HCTZ suppressed tubular reabsorption of phosphate (P) in IHP (P〈0.01) and 1oHPT (P〈0.05) but not in PHP type I. Urinary excretion of cAMP did not change after HCTZ administration in PHP type I, IHP, or 1oHPT. Endogenous PTH modulated the effects of HCTZ on Ca mobilization from bone and renal reabsorption of Ca in PHP type I with normal or high serum levels of PTH and in 1oHPT with high serum levels of PTH. The inhibitory effect of HCTZ on renal tubular reabsorption of P (probably from proximal tubules) was independent of PTH. The resistance to this inhibitory effect of HCTZ on P reabsorption in PHP type I suggested a proximal tubular dysfunction in this disorder.

    Notizen: Abstract Quantitative analyses of a wide variety of different solvents used for the extraction of several of the noncollagenous proteins of fully mineralized chicken bone powder were carried out to compare both the effectiveness of various procedures and the distribution of specific proteins which were solubilized. Extraction procedures included solutions of 6 M guanidine-HCl, pH 7.0, 0.5 M EDTA, pH 7.4, 0.3 N citric acid, 0.3 N HCl, 0.3 N formic acid, and 0.3 N acetic acid. Chelation of calcium ions by EDTA and dissolution of the mineral phase by acid extraction released 95% or more of the total calcium content of the bone powder by 48 hours, guanidine-HCl released less than 20% or less of the total calcium content even when extraction was carried out by 168 hours. Moreover, although guanidine-HCl solubilized a significant amount of collagen as gelatin, essentially none of the phosphoproteins, osteocalcin, or the proteoglycan decorin were solubilized, as detected by immunological techniques. In contrast, extraction of the mineralized bone powder by HCl and formic acid was very efficient in selectively solubilizing osteocalcin and osteopontin, while bone sialoprotein was selectively released by EDTA, and solubilized to a lesser extent by formic acid. Similarly, EDTA selectively removed decorin compared with HCl, formic, acetic, or citric acids. Only small amounts of osteopontin and osteocalcin were detected in the acetic acid extracts. These results provide methods for the selective solubilization of several different major, noncollagenous proteins from mineralized bone which should significantly aid in maximizing the amount of the specific protein recovered, and the ease with which the various proteins can be purified. The data also provide some insight into the intrinsic solubility characteristics of collaten, the specific noncollagenous proteins, and their potential association with each other and the mineral phase.

    Notizen: Abstract The influence of chronic and acute exposure to parathyroid hormone (PTH) on formation and breakdown of type I collagen, using two recently developed radioimmunoassays for serum PICP (the carboxyterminal propeptide of type I procollagen) and serum ICTP (the carboxyterminal telopeptide of type I collagen), have been evaluated. Fasting morning values were obtained from 18 women with primary hyperparathyroidism (HPT) and an equal number of age-matched, healthy controls. A 24-hour infusion of synthetic human parathyroid hormone (PTH 1-38) was performed in 14 healthy females. The patients with HPT had higher values for serum ICTP than the controls (6.0±3.0 and 4.1±2.1 μg/liter; P〈0.05), whereas the serum PICP concentrations were not different (170±72 and 151±65 μg/liter; n.s.). During infusion of PTH in healthy subjects, there was an increase of the serum ICTP concentrations (from 3.6±1.3 to 4.4±1.8 μg/liter; P〈0.001) whereas those of serum PICP decreased (from 185±78 to 118±42 μg/liter; P≤0.0001). The increase of serum ICTP during infusion of PTH was positively related to the increase of serum calcium and other indices of bone resorption, i.e., fasting urinary excretions of hydroxyproline and calcium. The decrease of serum PICP was also related to the changes of serum ICTP and hydroxyproline in urine, serum calcium, and alkaline phosphatase but not to osteocalcin, an established marker of osteoblastic activity. The findings support the fact that serum ICTP is a valuable method for evaluating bone resorption and is also easy to perform. Furthermore, the discordant results for the different markers of osteoblastic activity indicat that they reflect different functions of the cell.

    Notizen: Abstract We used stable carbon isotopes to analyse individual variation in arctic fox diet. We extracted collagen from bones (the lower jaw), and measured stable carbon isotopes. The foxes came from three different localities: Iceland, where both microtines and reindeer are rare; west Greenland, where microtines are absent; and Sweden, where scat analyses showed the primary food to be microtine rodents and reindeer. The Icelandic samples included foxes from both coastal and inland habitats, the Swedish sample came from an inland area, and the Greenland sample from coastal sites. The spatial variation in the isotopic pattern followed a basic division between marine and terrestrial sources of protein. Arctic foxes from inland sites had δ13C values of −21.4 (Iceland) and −20.4‰ (Sweden), showing typical terrestrial values. Coastal foxes from Greenland had typical marine values of −14.9‰, whereas coastal foxes from Iceland had intermediate values of −17.7‰. However, there was individual variation within each sample, probably caused by habitat heterogeneity and territoriality among foxes. The variation on a larger scale was related to the availability of different food items. These results were in accordance with other dietary analyses based on scat analyses. This is the first time that stable isotopes have been used to reveal individual dietary patterns. Our study also indicated that isotopic values can be used on a global scale.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Résumé Les métastases ostéolytiques des cancers sont à l'origine de douleurs et de fractures pathologiques responsables d'une importante invalidité altérant la qualité de survie des patients. Ces destructions osseuses sont dues à une augmentation de la résorption osseuse, liée à la stimulation des ostéoclastes par des médiateurs sécrétés localement par les cellules tumorales et médullaires. Les bisphosphonates, puissants agents anti-ostéoclastiques, ont une bonne efficacité sur les douleurs osseuses, la prévention des fractures et des épisodes hypercalcémiques.
    Notizen: Abstract Osteolytic metastases are the cause of pain and pathological fractures with marked disability affecting the patient's quality of life. The bone destruction is due to an increase of bone resorption, linked to stimulation of osteoclasts by mediators secreted locally by tumour and medullary cells. Bisphosphonates, strong anti-osteoclastic agents, are effective for bone pain, prevention of fractures and the treatment of hypercalcaemic episodes.

    Notizen: Abstract The treatment of bony metastases has developed due to improvements in the care of the primary cancer and due to a better understanding of the biological phenomenon in the metastasis. From simple palliative treatment of bone pain, treatment is now being directed towards the prevention of the complications of metastasis, such as fractures and paraplegia. Interesting results are currently being obtained by using chemotherapy for treatment of metastatic osteolysis.

La forme histologique la moins métastasiante est le cancer papillaire qui de plus, survient chez les sujets jeunes. Deux stades doivent être différentiés dans la maladie métastasiante. La métastase osseuse, unique, est découverte à la scintigraphie, les radiographies sont normales, l'irradiation à l'iode éventuellement associée au cobalt peut la stériliser. La métastase osseuse est visible sur les radiographies, elle n'est pas unique, la scintigraphie objectivera d'autres foyers hyperfixants, le traitement chirurgical, palliatif, aura pour effet de réduire la taille tumorale pour que l'irradiation puisse la stériliser ainsi que les autres foyers fixants.
    Notizen: Abstract Over 25 years, 1601 thyroid cancers were treated. 42 patients had solitary or multiple bony metastases. The least metastatic histological form is papillary cancer, which in addition occurs in young subjects. There are two stages of the metastatic disease. The solitary bony metastasis, discovered on scintigraphy with normal Xrays, may be effectively treated by irradiation with iodine with the possible addition of cobalt. Multiple metastases, visible on plain X-ray with other hyperfixation areas on scintigraphy, is best treated by palliative surgery to reduce size so that it can be sterilised by irradiation at the same time as other hyperfixation sites.

    Notizen: Abstract Five unusual cases of cystic angiomatosis of bone which presented with the radiologic appearance of osteoblastic lesions are reported. Three patients were female (ages 37, 41, and 65 years) and two were male (ages 24 and 66 years). Although cystic angiomatosis of bone usually produces widespread osteolytic lesions with a honeycombed appearance in the skeletal system, multiple osteoblastic lesions mimicking metastatic osteoblastic carcinoma are sometimes seen. This radiological presentation has not been well emphasized in previous reports. Histologically, in addition to the angiomatous lesions, both mature thickened lamellar bone trabeculae and immature trabeculae of woven bone were found. In one of our patients, increasing density of the osteoblastic lesions was noted over time. One previous study has suggested that the age of the lesions of cystic angiomatosis is related to radiographic density. It is important to recognize this uncommon variant of cystic angiomatosis and to include this entity among the radiologic differential diagnoses when multiple osteoblastic lesions are encountered.

    Notizen: Abstract The first component of complement $$C\bar 1s$$ has been shown to degrade type I and type II collagens (Yamaguchi et al. 1990), the latter of which is a major constituent of the cartilage matrix. In order to understand the physiological roles of $$C\bar 1s$$ in cartilage resorption, the expression of C1s was examined by immunohistochemistry in the primary ossification center where the matrix is removed and replaced by bone marrow. Hypertrophic chondrocytes, endothelium and hematogenous elements in the capillary buds were intensely stained by a monoclonal antibody against C1s. Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9, 92kDa gelatinase/type IV collagenase) was also immunolocalized in hypertrophic chondrocytes, mesenchymal cells in the primitive bone marrow and the cartilage matrix adjacent to the marrow. In addition, $$C\bar 1s$$ was found to activate the zymogen of MMP-9. These observations suggest that $$C\bar 1s$$ and MMP-9 coordinately participate in matrix degradation in cartilage.

    Notizen: Abstract The mechanical properties of composites are influenced, in part, by the volume fraction, orientation, constituent mechanical properties, and interfacial bonding. Cortical bone tissue represents a short-fibered biological composite where the hydroxyapatite phase is embedded in an organic matrix composed of type I collagen and other noncollagenous proteins. Destructive mechanical testing has revealed that fluoride ion treatment significantly lowers theZ-axis tensile and compressive properties of cortical bone through a constituent interfacial debonding mechanism. The present ultrasonic data indicates that fluoride ion treatment significantly alters the longitudinal velocity in theZ-axis as well as the circumferential and radial axes of cortical bone. This suggests that the distribution of constituents and interfacial bonding amongst them may contribute to the anisotropic nature of bone tissue.

    Notizen: Abstract Randomly colored space tesselations are considered as models for the mineral/organic structure of bone. First, it is shown that the structure function for such models is always proportional to the average form factor of the individual tiles and hence independent of the mineral density in the sample. Then the structure function is calculated for three such models: for model I, based on a hexagonal, and model 2, on a Poisson-Voronoi tesselation of the plane and for model 3, based on a random tesselation of the line. These results are compared to experimental structure functions measured by small-angle scattering and excellent agreement is obtained between model 2 and the bone from mice and rats, as well as between model 3 and calcified turkey leg tendon. Divergent conclusions following recent experiments by small-angle x-ray scattering and by electron microscopy are discussed in the light of these structural models and an explanation is proposed which might remove the discrepancy.

    Notizen: A new class of materials based on a spirodilactam structure has been recently synthesized as part of research into new polymeric materials. Not only is the spirodilactam structure novel, but it was not even the intended product in the synthesis as originally designed. The polymerization process discovered by the reaction of 4-ketopimelic acid or its corresponding spirodilactone with primary amines opened a new field of polysprodilactam chemistry. This paper describes the chemistry leading to the discovery of spirodilactam-based polymers and initial applications in the area of thermoplastics and thermosets. Most recent developments to be covered include aromatic spirodilactams and isomeric spirodilactams.

    Notizen: Spirodilactam bisallylether is a new high temperature performance monomer. It melts at 154°C, and is thermally inactive in forming a homopolymer. However, it reacts readily with a bismaleimide via “ene” reaction. Therefore, it could be used as a comonomer and an effective toughening modifier for bismaleimide. The properties of the blends of spirodilactam bisallylether and 4,4'-bismaleimidodiphenyl-methane were studied. The cocured resins have high glass transition temperature, 〉 300°C. By adding 30 to 40 mole % of the bisallylether, the compact tension toughness of the bismaleimide was improved to 0.7 MPa-m1/2. Therefore, the resins have a combination of high glass transition temperature and toughness. They also showed good flexural properties. Despite the high water absorption, 5 to 7%, the resins retained high hot/wet flexural properties because of the high glass transition.

    Notizen: Four immiscible blend systems, styrene-maleic anhydride/styrene-acrylonitrile (SMA/SAN). styrene-maleic anhydride/acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (SMA/ABS), poly(vinylidene fluoride)/SAN (PVF2/SAN), and PVF2/ABS, were investigated. The effect of adding up to about 10 wt% of a third polymer that is miscible with each blend component, poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA), was determined. In every case, the addition of PMMA led to the improvement of properties such as tensile strength, tensile elongation, and notched impact strength. Furthermore, the addition of PMMA resulted in finer, more uniform dispersions of the primary blend components. The experimental results are interpreted in terms of interfacial activity of the common phase component, PMMA.

    Notizen: Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to investigate the solid-state cure process of poly(phenylene sulfide)(PPS) resin. Virgin PPS resin in an open sample pan was cured in DSC cell. Either air or oxygen was used as a curing atmosphere. Cure temperatures were in the range of 200 and 250 °C, which are below the melting point of PPS resin. Cure temperature as well as atmospheric condition influenced the cure behavior of PPS in the solid state. Both the rate and the amount of cure increased with increasing cure temperature. On the other hand, the time to reach the maximum cure rate was independent of cure temperature. Changing the atmosphere from air to oxygen increased both the cure rate and the amount of cure. The size effect of PPS particles on the cure reaction was also discussed.

    Notizen: Slow crack growth was measured in the perpendicular and parallel directions relative to the extrusion direction of the pipe. For five pipes from different manufacturers, the anisotropy factor, the lifetime to fracture in the perpendicular direction divided by lifetime in the parallel direction, varied from 1.2 to 4.7 for complete fracture and 1.4 to 4.0 for crack initiation. The degree of molecular orientation was determined by measuring the shrinkage that occured when a pipe specimen was heated near its melting point. The amount of shrinkage correlated with the anisotropy factor for slow crack growth. The shape change after shrinkage was related to the flow pattern of the resin during extrusion and the cooling rate after extrusion.

    Notizen: The complex Young's modulus, E*(ω), and the complex strain-optical coefficient, O*(ω), of poly(ether sulfone) (PES), polysulfone (PSF), and polyethermide (PEI), were measured over the frequency range 1 to 130 Hz. The data were analyzed with a modified stress-optical rule: The Young's modulus was decomposed into two complex functions, EG*(ω) and ER*(ω); the modified stress-optical coefficient, CR and CG, associated with the rubber (R) and glass (G) components, respectively, were determined. The results for six polymers, including polystyrene, poly(α-methyl styrene), and bisphenol A polycarbonate were compared with each other. One of the coefficients, CR, equivalent to the stress-optical coefficient in melts, mainly depended on the way in which phenyl groups were connected to the chain. The other, CG, was in the range of 20 to 40 Brewsters, and did not strongly depend on the details of polymer structure. The component function, EG*(ω), which was located in the glassy region and originated from the high glassy modulus, was almost the same in shape when plotted against ω with double logarithmic scales. The R component, ER*(ω), located at the long time end of the glass-to-rubber transition zone, was slightly sensitive to the molecular structure of polymers.

    Notizen: While there is abundant evidence that the molecular weight distribution (MWD) of a linear polymer has an influence on the shape of the viscosity function, the ability to convert the viscosity function to an MWD has been questioned. Using strictly numerical techniques, we have shown that the viscosity function can be transformed to the MWD, but always with some distortion. However, distinct bimodality can be qualitatively preserved through both the MWD-viscosity and viscocity-MWD transforms.

    Notizen: In microcellular plastics, an unfoamed skin that is integral with the foamed core can be created by allowing the nucleating gas to diffuse from the surfaces of a gas saturated specimen prior to foaming. In this paper, a semi-empirical model is proposed that predicts the skin thickness variation in microcellular foams as a function of gas desorption time. The model shows good agreement with experimental results on the polycarbonate-carbon dioxide system.

    Notizen: The present paper proposes “Deformation Characteristics” (DC) as a new deformation measure of screw extrusion processes, based on the Green deformation tensor. In contrast to previous strain measures heuristically proposed by Mohr, et al., Mckelvey, and Pinto and Tadmor, the new DC can naturally incorporate the demixing phenomena and systematically take into account the three-dimensional circulatory flow with the screw flight effect. Therefore, DC can be regarded as an improved strain measure. “Weighted Average Deformation characteristics” (WADC) is also proposed to indicate the overall deformation characteristics as a quantitative measure to the “goodness of mixing” of the extrusion process. The present paper includes discussion on delicate differences between DC and several other strain measures in case of the two-dimensional velocity approximation, and on the application of DC into a general three-dimensional velocity field obtained by a quasi-three-dimensional finite element analysis of extrusion processes. In determining WADC in the three-dimensional application, the residence time distribution function, including the three-dimensional circulatory flow effect, is used.

    Notizen: Non-isothermal flow is simulated in the screw and kneading disc elements in a modular co-rotating twin screw extruder. Methods of calculating mean temperature rises for individual elements are discussed and results are presented. The implications of non-isothermal operation for scale-up is discussed. A method is then described for making calculations in a modular co-rotating machine, that contains many different elements. Example calculations are given showing the tendency of larger machines to buildup greater temperatures when viscous heating is included.

    Notizen: A study of the influence of a compatibilizing agent on phase morphology development in a 75/25 polyethylene/polyamide-6 blend in a modular co-rotating twin screw extruder is presented. The development of phase morphology along the axis of the modular screw was observed by cooling the extruder and removing the polymer from the screw channels. Changes in phase morphology due to the addition of a compatibilizer have been investigated using scanning electron microscopy. Sufficient quantities of compatibilizing agent produce significant increases in the rate of mixing and also reduce the scale of the phase morphology. Much larger quantities (5%) than actually required for interface coverage are needed for rapid mixing. This seems to be due to the high viscosity of the matrix.

    Notizen: Penrose states that quantum effects can occur even in relatively large systems when energy differences remain small. This is just the situation with polymer materials. A quantum description by Penrose of the formation of quasi-crystals can be rewritten to apply to polymer crystallization. The implications of the need to take account of quantum effects are discussed. Another approach based on the quantization of energy levels in clusters of atoms offers a possible explanation of heat setting in nylon and polyester fibers. Finally some problems of the interpretation of quantum theory are discussed.

    Notizen: A novel approach to a truly dynamic thermodynamics is proposed in which equilibrium is defined in terms of explicit time, distance, and acceptable error scales. This approach involves reformulating the second law of thermodynamics in terms of an excess energy that vanishes at equilibrium instead of an entropy that assumes some unknown maximum value. Excess energy is defined mathematically as the total Legendre transform of energy with respect to an independent set of extensive variables. Excess energy is effectively the free energy functional of a nonequilibrium system and is a function of the time, distance, and acceptable error scales. Elimination of entropy from thermodynamics requires recognizing temperature as a thermal stress, proportional to the antimetric component of the stress tensor that is neglected when one assumes the validity of Cauchy's second law of motion. The inclusion of temperature as part of the stress-strain couple completes the science of thermomechanics and opens the way for a practical unification of chemistry and physics in strictly mechanical terms.The last sentence of the abstract shows how high the goals that Lindem meyer set for himself were. I personally do not agree with the idea that mechanics is the queen of all sciences, and that given deep enough probing one could achieve “a practical unification of chemistxy and physics in strictly mechanical terms”; for instance, electromagnetism has full citizenship's rights in physics, and it is hard to conceive that it could be reduced to mechanics.

    Notizen: The interfacial strength of two paper-polypropylene-paper laminates used for electrical power transmission cable insulation has been measured using a peel test after a variety of conditionings that simulate the service thermal stress conditions. Immersion in dielectric oil at 23°C causes little decrease in peel strength, but heating in the oil at 90°C causes a rapid initial loss followed by a slow loss of strength. Cyclic and static heating show that cyclic fatigue is not a factor as the initial loss of strength occurs in a time comparable to the first two test cycles and further heating causes much less loss of strength. Tensile and compressive stresses resulting from cable winding have no effect on the loss of bond strength during heating in oil. Vacuum drying of the laminate and oil (as in cable manufacture) before heating results in less decrease in peel strength than heating without prior drying. Optical and electron microscopy show minimal wetting of the paper fibrils by the polypropylene with only a few having been either normal to or at a steep angle to the polypropylene surface. That is, the fibrils appear to be parallel to the interface and only partially immersed in the polypropylene. Micrographs show little, if any, differences between the interfaces on the two sides as well as little paper on the polypropylene after delamination and vice versa. It is suggested that the bonding mechanism is a combination of weak mechanical interlocking and secondary bonds. It is also suggested that swelling of the polypropylene relative to the paper by the dielectric oil at 90°C weakens the interfacial bond.

    Notizen: Variations of stress with temperature for stretched networks of trans-polyisoprene networks in the crystallization region are reported. Such profiles are characteristically U-shaped with the stress at lower temperatures often climbing to high levels. Valley widths of the profiles narrow as annealing temperature increases to about 50°C, then widen at yet higher temperatures. The degree of crystallization at 22°C is 37% and independent of deformation and annealing temperature. The β crystal form is overwhelmingly present with traces of other crystal forms appearing only at high deformations. The theory of stress-induced crystallization provides a good description of experimental results provided the nucleation parameter σ is dependent upon deformation. Therefore, the data provide good qualitative support for the theory in its current form.

    Notizen: Polyalkylenebenzoxazoles of high molecular weight (inherent viscosity values from 0.76 to 2.95) were prepared from 4,6-diaminoresorcinol dihydrochloride and aliphatic diacids in polyphosphoric acid by heating at 180 to 200°C for 3-5 h. Melting points of the polymers ranged from 148 to 423°C, depending on the length of the alkylene chain. Glass transition temperatures were relatively low, ranging from 50 to 100°C and did not show the pronounced odd/even effect noted for melting points. In all cases, rapid weight loss occurred above 400°C. No evidence for the formation of a molecular composite was observed in an attempt to prepare in situ a rod-like polybenzoxazole in a polyalkylenebenzoxazole.

    Notizen: Low levels of oligomer molecules are generally desirable in polymeric materials. It is known that several reactor variables can affect the oligomer distribution, and therefore it is useful to have predictive models for molecular weight distribution. The normal approach of a differential equation-based model is very complex to set up if it is applied rigorously to include all the non-Flory aspects of the step growth polycondensation and in particular the interfacial polycarbonate polymerization. In this paper, simple methods based on the Monte Carlo method and Stockmayer distribution are applied to simulate the effects of mass-transfer, unequal reactivity, and the starting stoichiometry of the polycondensing functional groups on the oligomer distribution. It is shown that these parameters can have a significant effect on the oligomer weight distribution and polydispersity of the final polymer.

    Notizen: The true crystallite modulus of polyoxymethylene (POM) was evaluated experimentally and thoeretically as a function of temperature. The mechanical deformation mechanism of POM was lattice-dynamically predicted and confirmed by measuring the stress-induced vibrational frequency shifts of the infrared and Raman spectra, which were interpreted on the basis of anharmonic potential field.

    Notizen: The ultra-high strength/modulus, extended chain polyethylene fiber (Spectra® fiber) composite has shown great potential as a lightweight armor material with its extraordinary capability of absorbing the kinetic energy of projectiles. But the relatively low melting point of this fiber (∼ 145°C) has caused concerns regarding the effect of temperature rise during the impact/penetration process on the performance as armor material. In this article, an analysis of temperature rise in projectile and the fiber composite during the impact/penetration process is described. Combining the simulation of impact deformation by finite element analysis and the simulation of temperature rise by a finite difference approximation of the related dynamic equations, the temperature rise caused by the projectile/composite interaction was estimated. Results show that there is a significant temperature rise at the projectile/composite interface due to the friction but that the short length of time involved in the process and the low thermal conductivity of Spectra fiber composite keep the temperature rise in a very small region (in the order of 0.001 cm) around the interface during the impact/penetration process. Consequently, the volume that is affected by the temperature rise is very small, in the order of total 0.001 cm3 around the projectile, and this is too small to generate any detectable effect on the armor performance. After the projectile is stopped, however, substantial heating of fiber composite can occur under specific conditions as the result of heat flow from the hot projectile embedded in the composite. This heating of fibers, however, is a postmortem effect and hence inconsequential to the ballistic performance of the composite armor.

    Notizen: A mathematical model of a polycondensation reactor that can be used in the final stage for poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) is established and compared with experimental data obtained from a laboratory scale reactor with film renewal. Detailed side reactions are considered along with the diffusional removal of the small molecules through thin film. Among several kinetic constants, the polycondensation reaction rate constant k1(= k8) and diester group degradation reaction rate constant k7 have an influence over the degree of polymerization. The values of k1(= k8) and k7 for 0.05 wt% Sb2O3 were obtained as curve-fit values: (1) k1(= k8) = 3.4 × 106 exp(- 18.500/RT′) (L/mol-min); (2) k7 = 1.3 × 1011 exp(- 37,800/RT′) (min-1). Effects of the film exposure time, reduced pressure of vacuum, temperature, the initial terephthalic acid (TPA)/ethylene glycol (EG) mole ratio, the initial degree of polymerization, and catalysts were well explained by the model.

    Notizen: Entrance pressure losses for the creeping flow of a power-law fluid are calculated for an abrupt contraction of ratio 2, 4, 8 and ∞ for both the axisymmetric and planar cases using P2P1 and P+2P1 finite elements. Contrary to some earlier findings in the literature, the entrance pressure loss obtained by using the two different types of finite elements, both of which satisfy the Babus̆ka-Brezzi condition, are found to converge to the same results. The present results also confirm that the variational method of Duda and Vrentas gives excellent upper bounds for both the axisymmetric and planar cases with infinite contraction ratio.

    Notizen: The curing of epoxy-amine polymer has been modeled by the reaction of functional groups, and the mole balance of these is governed by a set of six nonlinear differential equations. In this work, we have first developed a complete analytical solution for isothermal curing. For nonisothermal curing, we have divided the domain of hydroxyl group concentration β into small increments Δβ and adopted our analytical results for this domain. In addition, we solved the energy balance equation analytically and obtained the temperature rise for Δβ. We have compared our results with those obtained from the Runge Kutta numerical solutions. We have shown that our semianalytical technique is about a thousand times more efficient and faster.

    Notizen: Material property models for poly(etheretherketone) (PEEK) have been combined with a residual stress model to provide a means for investigating the effect of crystallization process on the residual stress development in semicrystalline materials. The analysis shows that crystallization causes an increase in the residual stress levels. This increase is affected through an increase in the resin modulus values and through the resin modulus build-up at higher temperatures. The shrinkage due to crystallization was found to have no effect on the residual stress development in neat PEEK.

    Notizen: Temperature sweeps of dynamic viscoelastic properties have shown that phydroxybenzoic acid (PHB)-based liquid crystalline polyesters, specifically in this case those copolymerized with poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), can be subjected to considerable supercooling if initial heating curves are compared to subsequent cooling curves, indicating that this type of material can be in quite different states even at the same temperature, depending on thermal history. Utilizing this supercooling behavior, viscoelastic properties of a 60 mol% PHB/40 mol% PET material produced by Unitika were monitored before and, particularly, after large-scale shear deformation to determine how potential structure changes induced by the shear are reflected in viscoelastic properties immediately, and with time. According to dynamic viscoelastic temperature sweep data four quite different initial states were employed including conditions with, as well as largely free of, crystallites. However, in all cases, post-shear monitoring showed decreased G′ and G″ values with almost no evidence of return towards initial values within approximately 25 min. These results, in addition to furthering somewhat the fundamental understanding of the flow and relaxation properties of liquid crystalline polymers, may be useful in polymer processing, where large-scale shear deformations employed in forming processes appear to be capable of changing considerably the subsequent behavior of such materials.

    Notizen: A thermodynamic model was proposed to correlate the phase behavior of a swelling polymeric gel (vinyl alcohol-sodium acrylate copolymer) and the volume phase transition in alcohol (methanol, ethanol or propanol)-water solutions. The model is based on the Flory-Huggins formula for polymer solution coupled with the osmotic pressure by rubber elasticity proposed by Flory. The volume change behavior and the equilibrium concentrations inside and outside the gel were successfully correlated using the present model.

    Notizen: Terpolymerization was investigated by dilatometry for zincacrylate (ZnA2), acrylonitrile (AN), and styrene (St), radically initiated by a As2S3-styrene complex (I) in dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO), at 90 ± 0.1°C for 1 h under inert atmosphere. The system follows non-ideal kinetics, due to primary radical termination as well as a degradative chain transfer reaction. The kinetic expression for the system is Rpα(I)0.27 (St)0.31 (AN) 0.22[ZnA2]0.12. The value for the activation energy and kp2/kt are 55 kJ mol-1 and 1.87 × 10-7 1 mol-1 s-1 respectively. The terpolymer has been characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy. The thermal stability and solubility of the terpolymer have also been studied.

    Notizen: The intermeshing counterrotating twin screw extruder is widely used for compounding, devolatilization, blending, and reactive extrusion. A fluid dynamics analysis package-FIDAP, using the finite element method, was implemented to simulate the 3-D flow patterns in the region of conveying elements and shearing discs of a Leistritz LSM30.34 twin screw extruder. The rheological behavior of the fluid was described by a power law model. The flow fields were characterized in terms of velocity profiles, pressure distributions, shear stresses generated, and a parameter λ quantifying the elongational flow components. The influence of screw rotational speed and axial pressure difference on the flow characteristics was also analyzed. A comparison between the flow characteristics in the shearing discs operated in a corotating or counterrotating mode was also presented.

    Notizen: A mathematical model is presented for the computer simulation of multilayer flow of polymer melts in coexitrusion. The proposed model can handle an arbitrary number of layers. The viscosity of each layer is shear-rate and temperature dependent. Given the material properties, die dimensions, and process conditions, the model determines the flow field throughout the die gap. Computer simulations and experimental data are presented for a three-layer polyester/EVA/polyester film coextrusion, with emphasis on the interfacial instability and its effects on optical properties of the film. The rsults are discussed in the context of the critical interfacial shear stress criterion that has been proposed by Schrenk, et al. (1) for the onset of interfacial instability. It appears that elasticity differences between layers contribute to the interfacial instability. It is conjectured that minimizing interfacial shear stress and matching elasticities of adjacent layers is an appropriate criterion in coextrusion analysis.

    Notizen: A simple unified lubrication approach has been proposed to design a coat-hanger die that can deliver wide and uniform liquid sheets. This approach requires that the wall stress in the manifold be constant. With this constraint, any inelastic non-Newtonian fluid model can be used to describe the liquid motion inside the die. Fluid models that can represent the pseudoplastic or viscoplastic behavior of polymeric liquids have been selected for illustration. A general equation that can be solved to determine the effect of production variations on flow uniformity inside the die has also been derived.

    Notizen: In this paper we address the aspects associated with shear modification of low density polyethylene by extrusion. By successive passes of the polymer through an extruder it can be shown that both the melt viscosity and melt elasticity are reduced by shear modification. These reversible variations are not accompanied by significant changes in molecular weight distribution. The major effects of extrusion are to decrease the amount of elastically effecitve material. Study of proton relaxation times at 150°C shows that the melt comprises regions of relatively ordered, entangled, and unentangled polymer. Shearing reduces the proportion of more ordered material. The elastically effective anchors that are reduced by shearing are regions with restricted segmental mobility rather than conventional entanglements or intermolecular knots. Successive extrusions produce a relatively small decrease in the number of such constraints to molecular motion. Repeated shearing has a diminishing effect on the proportion of more ordered material in the polyethlene melt. This parallels observations of the effects of repeated shear modification on the properties of polyethylene films and other extrudates.

    Notizen: This paper presents the design and analysis of a process control strategy for a reactive extrusion polypropylene degradation process. The primary control objective is to continuously produce polypropylene with desired properties (viscosity) despite variations in the properties of the feed material. The viscosity of the polypropylene, measured using an In-line Wedge Rheometer, is controlled by manipulating the feed concentration of the peroxide which acts as the initiator for the degradation reaction. An empirical model of the reactive degradation process is developed which describes the process dynamics and the characteristic process disturbances. Minimum variance (MV), constrained minimum variance (CMV), and pole placement (PP) controllers are first evaluated and compared in simulation. Then, a pole placement controller is implemented on the actual reactive extrusion process, with results being presented for the response of the controlled process to load disturbances due to feed material changes.

    Notizen: A sliding plate rheometer has been developed to measure the normal thrust of a molten plastic in large amplitude oscillatory shear. The normal thrust of a molten plastic in large amplitude oscillatory shear is a significant nonlinear effect that has previously been unobtainable. Normal thrust measurements may now be used to help understand and characterize nonlinear viscoelastic behavior inherent in most molten plastics. The new rhemoeter incorporates a piezoelectric pressure transducer in a very stiff plate that minimizes compliance. Normal thrust measurements with cone and plate rheometers are made by measuring the total force on the plate (or cone) and are subject to error due to edge effects. The new rheometer measures the local pressure in the sample and is therefore unaffected by sample size or edge effects. Normal thrust measurements in large amplitude oscillatory shear are reported for both molten Phillips TR480 high density polyethylene pipe resin which contains 2% by weight of carbon black filler and IUPAC LDPE X. Crosstalk due to shear stress on the active face of the pressure transducer causes signal error which for oscillatory shear is filtered out using a discrete Fourier transform.

    Notizen: At 75/25 concentration ratio, bisphenol a polycarbonate (PC)/styreneacry-lonitrile copolymer (SAN) blend has poor impact resistance compared to PC/ABS. A rubber phase methacrylate-butadiene-styrene (MBS) of core/shell type was dispersed in PC/SAN blend. The morphology of the unmodified and modified blend was investigated. The influence of the acrylonitrile ratio in the SAN on the microstructure was studied. It clearly shows that core/shell resides at the interface between PC and SAN. It seems that core/shell particles enhance the adhesion between the different phases. Their presence influences the interface mobility; i.e., the coalescence of the dispersed phase observed in pure PC/SAN is considerably reduced when the MBS particles are added. The impact resistance of the samples was correlated with the morphology.

    Notizen: This paper presents the development of a model for free radical initiated polypropylene degradation during reactive extrusion that combines a kinetic model of the polypropylene degradation reaction with a simplified model of the melting mechanism in the extruder. The free radical initiated degradation of polypropylene is characterized by a narrowing of the molecular weight distribution (MWD) and a decrease in the molecular weight averages. A high temperature SEC is used to determine MWD's for three different commercially available polypropylenes degraded at various initiator concentrations in a 1.5 inch single screw extruder (L/D = 24:1). The predictions of the kinetic model alone and the combined kinetic-melting model are compared with the experimentally determined MWD's and molecular weight averages for the degraded polypropylenes. The predictions of a modified kinetic model that includes the possibility of termination by combination are also examined. The kinetic-melting model is found to provide significantly improved predictions of the experimentally determined MWD's and molecular weight averages in comparison to the original kinetic model. A viscosity-molecular weight relationship is also developed, which is then used to determine the gain of the degradation process as a function of the initiator concentration from the molecular weight averages predicted by the kinetic-melting model. Earlier work has shown such prior knowledge of the process gain can be used to significantly improve the performance of process control schemes for the degradation process.

    Notizen: The curing and vitrification effect during the reaction of ATBN modified epoxy resin was studied through the dynamic differential scanning calorimetry method and a new reaction kinetic equation containing generalized WLF equation was developed to describe the reaction rate at both glassy and rubbery state. An autocatalytic mechanism was found to describe adequately the cure kinetics of the rubber modified epoxy resin and the overall order of reaction was assumed to be 2. The kinetic parameters were determined from the DSC data through the Marquardt's multivariable nonlinear regression method and Runge-Kutta integration technique. The presence of rubber indicated minor effect on the cure kinetics of epoxy resin. The Arrhenius type viscosity function was employed to establish a relationship between viscosity data measured by RMS and chemical conversion calculated from the reaction kinetic equation.

    Notizen: Polyurethane foam formation involves both polymerization and expansion processes. The dynamics of the water and R-11 blown foams depend on the rates of chemical and physical blowing processes, along with the rate of viscosity increase of the reacting mixture. Experiments were carried out to study the dynamics of free rising, water and R-11 blown rigid polyurethane foams. The density and temperature change during the foam formation were monitored. A theoretical model was developed to predict the density and temperature variation with time. In the model, the physical blowing agent (R-11) evaporation process is assumed to be heat generation-controlled and the carbon dioxide generation process to be controlled by the rate of the water-isocyanate reaction. The kinetic parameters of the reactions of isocyanate with polyol and water were obtained separately and were asssumed to be independent of each other. The water-isocyanate reaction appears to follow first-order kinetics with respect to concentration of water. The theoretical predictions of the model show good agreement with the experimental data for density variation with time. The model predictions for temperature rise also match experimental data, except at the later stages of foaming when it is found to be slower than the experimental measurements. However, this deviation does not affect the dynamics of density change since it occurs after the completion of the expansion process.

    Notizen: A good extrusion die must distribute the polymer melt in the flow channel such that the material exits from the die with a uniform velocity and temperature. Coathanger dies are commonly used for the extrusion of plastic sheets and films. The die is usually provided with a straining bar allowing a regulation of the flowrate in the case of a poor design. But this, in turn, can affect temperature uniformity. Therefore, the design of coathanger die is a complex task which is mainly accomplished by trial and error in industry. Analyses of the flow in coathanger dies have been reported in the literature. Analytical and numerical approaches are used to solve this problem. The first one involves many simplifying assumptions: the most important ones being the unidirectional and isothermal flow of the polymer. Most numerical methods deal with a 2-D geometry, but only a few of them have considered the non-isothermal flow. A new model has been developed using a modified FAN method (Flow Analysis Network introduced by Tadmor) for the calculation of the 2-D flow, coupled with a finite-difference scheme for the calculation of temperature. The overall model can run on a PC with only a few minutes of calculation. Good agreement was obtained between experimental data and simulations.

    Notizen: A new finite element model named Corrected Slice Method (CSM) has been developed to cope with three-dimensional vacuum cooling calibrator problems. Such problems appear whenever the cooling channel lay-out comprises transverse channels in the calibrator. The CSM is an extension of the 2D approach (8), which takes into account the axial heat fluxes within the calibrator. The proposed model was validated by comparing the numerical results obtained on a test problem with a rigorous finite element approach. Moreover, a real complex profile-calibrator system was simulated in order to illustrate the full performance of the porposed method.

    Notizen: The use of bend testers for the determination of critical strains in the study of environmental stress cracking has been assessed. Using the combination of polystyrene in ethanol, various factors affecting the measurement of critical strains were investigated, including the strain applied during the bend testing, the time of immersion in the liquid prior to straining, the surface finish, and the extent of physical aging. It was concluded that the best determination of critical strain is the strain at which a sample just shows signs of crazing, rather than the strain at the outer edge of a band of crazes. The measured value of critical strain increases with increased prior immersion time, decreased surface roughness, and decreased physical aging time. Reasons for these variations are discussed. It is concluded that although the use of bend testers is valuable for qualitative testing, careful testing methodologies need to be adopted for it to be a useful quantitative test.

    Notizen: The dynamics of R-11 blown polyurethane foam formation depend on the rates of viscosity increase of the reacting mixture and R-11 evaporation, and both are controlled by the polymerization process. Detailed experiments were carried out to study the dynamics of foaming and the measurements made included the cream and rise times, the density change of the expanding foam with time, and the temperature rise during reaction. Dynamic temperature measurements at different points in the foaming mixture were also made to study the spatial variation of the temperature in the foam. The experimental results showed the rate of foaming, the final density, and the maximum temperature decreased with increasing R-11 concentration. The heat losses from the foam were also found to be significant towards the later stages of foaming when density was low. Theoretical models were developed to predict the temperature and density change with time and spatial variation of temperature in the foam due to heat losses, by considering the foaming dynamics to be either heat generation controlled or heat and mass transfer controlled. In the former, the foam was assumed to be a pseudohomogeneous phase and the approach was similar to that of Rojas, et al. (5). New features accounted for in the model were dilution of the reactant concentration due to the presence of liquid blowing agent and heat loss from the foam due to radiation. While excellent agreement between theoretical predictions and experimental results was obtained for temperature variation with time at different locations in the foam, the model gave a much sharper reduction in density with time as compared to the experimental data. In the second model, the rate of foaming was assumed to be controlled by the rate of heat and mass transfer to a single bubble in the foam. Assuming a film model for heat and mass transfer, the theoretical predictions for both temperature and density were found to be in very good agreement with experimental data.

    Notizen: When diffusion coefficients are measured with the cup method, the exposed area is often less than the area of the sample. Because of this masking effect the measured diffusion coefficient is overestimated. The present article presents simple formulas based on two-dimensional analytical solutions to correct for this in cylindrical cup samples. Different cases of anisotropical diffusion are dealt with. The error in the analytical solutions is determined by numerical computer simulations.

    Notizen: A comparative study of warpage, global shrinkage, and residual quench stresses developed in rotational molding is made for a series of thermoplastics including various polythylenes, polypropylene, polyamide-6, polycarbonate, and polystyrene. The influence of rate of quench on uniaxial stress strain and impact behavior of rotomolded parts was also studied. Generally, warpage, global shrinkage, and residual stresses increase with increasing quench rate for all the polymers. Further, the levels of warpage and global shrinkage increases with extent of crystallization, i.e., products from glassy polymers exhibit little warpage and those from highly crystalline polymers are highly warped. Increasing rate of quench tends to increase elongation to break and impact strength.

    Notizen: Measurements of melt strength and breaking stretching ratio of several blends of thermoplastic polymers with liquid crystalline polymers are presented. The melt strength behavior depends not only on the viscosity of the blends but also on the temperature dependence of the viscosity. In particular, even if the viscosities of the blends are, at the extrusion temperature, lower than that of the thermoplastic matrices, the melt strength can be larger than that of the pure thermoplastics if its viscosity-temperature curve exceeds that of the matrices far from the solidification temperature. This behavior allows one to spin or film blow these blends despite the low viscosity.

    Notizen: A mathematical model of the high pressure polymerization of ethylene in tubular reactors was tested with experimental data obtained from an industrial size tubular reactor. Series of experiments involving changes in operating conditions were carried out, and process data and polyethylene samples were collected. The collected samples were characterized for their molecular weight distributions and various rheological material functions involving shear and extensional flows. The findings of the model were compared against the generated process data and the molecular weight distributions of the samples. The determined rheological behavior exhibited strong dependence on the primary characteristics of the resins. Overall, this study should introduce a better understanding of the interactions between high pressure reaction conditions and the primary properties of polyethylene, including moments of molecular weight distribution and extent of branching on one hand and the interrelationships between primary properties and the rheological behavior of the high pressure polyethylene product on the other hand.

    Notizen: The Galerkin finite element method has been applied to study the three-dimensional flow field of power-law fluids inside an extrusion die. Two inlet designs, i.e., center-fed and end-fed, have been considered. The effects of inertial force as represented by the Reynolds number Re, inlet geometry, and the power-law index n on lateral flow uniformity and vortex formation in the entrance region have been examined. A flow visualization technique has been carried out to experimentally verify the theoretical prediction of the three-dimensional flow field inside a die. It has been found that increasing Re or decreasing n will deteriorate flow uniformity. Depending on the direction of the inlet jet stream, the inertial force may create a flow peak in the central region of a center-fed die, or the maximum flow rate will appear close to the end of the die for an end-fed die. For highly shear-thinning fluids, lower flow rates are always observed close to the end of the dies. It is concluded that creating a plug flow in the inlet tube of the extrusion die is advantageous for both center-fed and end-fed designs.

    Notizen: A two-phase model is presented for simulating the post-filling stage of injection molding of amorphous and semicrystalline materials. A finite-element scheme with quadratic shape function for the pressure is proposed. The melt is considered in terms of Hele-Shaw flow for a non-Newtonian fluid using a modified-Cross model with either an Arrhenius-type or WLF-type functional form to describe the viscosity under nonisothermal conditions; the compressible behavior of the polymer is assumed to obey either a double-domain Tait or single-domain Spencer Gilmore equation of state. The interfacial energy balance equation including the latent-heat effect for semicrystalline materials is coupled with the transient energy equation for the solid and melt phases in order to predict the solidified layer and temperature profile. Two well-characterized materials, namely a commercial-grade PP and PS, were used in the present work. Good agreement is obtained between the present simulation and experimental pressure traces from this study and from previous investigation in the literature. The effects of compressibility, viscosity model, and thermal properties upon the predicted pressure field are also considered.

    Notizen: We have generated microcellular polymeric foam structures using a pressure induced phase separation in concentrated mixtures of supercritical CO2 and poly(methyl methacrylate). The process typically generates a microcellular core structure encased by a nonporous skin, the thickness of which decreases with increasing saturation pressure. This trend can be described by a model for skin formation that is based on the diffusion rate of gas out of the sample. Significant density reductions on the order of 30 to 70% can be achieved by changing the pressure and temperature conditions in the foaming process. There are several ways in which the saturation pressure affects the average cell size, with the net effect that cell size decreases sharply with increasing pressure above 2000 psi, leveling out at higher pressures. Cell size increases with increasing temperature from 40°C to 70°C. A model for cell growth, based on a cell model of Aremanesh and Advani, modified to include the effect of CO2 on model parameters, reproduces these trends.

    Notizen: Multiobjective dynamic optimization has been carried out on a nonvaporizing nylon 6 batch reactor. Three objective functions have been identified, viz., minimization of the concentration of unreacted monomer in the product, minimization of the dimer concentration, and minimization of the reaction time, for producing polymer having a specified value, μn, d, of the number average chain length. Two problems have been studied in this paper, each consisting of two objective functions taken from the above set. Pareto solutions have been generated using an algorithm based on Pontryagin's minimum principle and the method of Lagrangian multipliers. The effects of various physical and computational parameters have been studied, and methods have been developed to overcome the numerical difficulties that arise during the solution. The Pareto sets so generated can be coupled with the surrogate worth trade-off (SWT) method, which facilitates interaction with a decision maker (DM). The optimal temperature histories obtained for the two problems studied are quite different and suggest that one must solve the three-dimensional problem in which the vector objective function incorporates all three objective functions. Results from the present study could be used as starting guesses to converge rapidly on the solution of the three-dimensional problem.

    Notizen: The entrance pressure drop during extrusion cooking of corn grits was measured using a cylindrical die viscometer attached to a single screw extruder and compared with results obtained using low-density polyethylene (LDPE). The cylindrical die viscometer had a length to diameter ratio of 40 with half-entry angles of 30, 37.5, 45 and 90° with the horizontal. The entrance pressure drop at the die was measured as a function of extrusion temperature, product moisture content and the die entry angle. Results indicate that the flow behavior of corn grits and the entrance pressure drop were affected by product moisture content, process temperature and the shear history in the extruder. Entrance pressure drop also increased with wall shear stress for plastic melt, but for food biopolymer, the increase was observed provided shear history effects were minimized. Entrance correction increased with apparent shear rate for LDPE, but the reverse was true for corn meal. Using Cogswell's analysis, corn grits exhibit severe extension thinning behavior in entry flow.

    Notizen: Guidelines are developed for molding large composite parts via structural reaction injection molding using glass preforms and polyisocyanurate resins. These are based on numerical simulations of the simultaneous heat transfer and reaction kinetics of a commercial system during and after mold filling. Premised requirements are that resin does not gel before the mold is filled, yet, reactions are sufficiently vigorous to approach completion. An existing mechanistic kinetic model is used and material parameters found from a chemical kinetics study employing an insulated cup. It is found desirable to use a high mold temperature and a low preform temperature in molding. Nondimensionalization of the governing equations reveals the existence of a Nusselt number (Nu), which describes the relative importance of heat transfer between resin and glass relative to thermal diffusion to the mold wall. With a Nusselt number of about 50 or higher it is possible to use the cooling capacity of the preform to extend gel time. The magnitude of Nu is influenced by part thickness, glass fraction, strand diameter, and flow velocity. Thus, the effect of the preform on extending resin gel time is within control of the molder.

    Notizen: A detailed study of the effect of several extrusion variables was made on the rheological and thermal properties of Delrin II acetal homopolymer and Zytel 42 polyamide 66 materials. A 63.5 mm Davis Standard extruder was used to measure the effect of screw design, screw rpm, die and head pressure, and melt temperature on the rheology of acetal and nylon 66 resins. A single stage metering screw was used to determine the effect of screw geometry and viscous heating on the melt viscosity breakdown and the rate of degradation of each polymer. The melt temperature was measured in the melt stream in the channel and correlations are shown between ideal melt temperature predicted from the rheology data and the actual loss of properties of each polymer due to viscous heating. The paper also discusses how to measure the melt temperature accurately in extrusion, and to use it as a key indicator to optimize the extrusion process, and to control the rheology, thermal stability, and the molecular weight of a polymer during processing.

    Notizen: In this article, we investigate the effect of weld lines on the tensile mechanical properties of unmodified and copolymer modified high density polyethylene (HDPE) and polystyrene (PS) blends. The homopolymers were melt blended in the proportion of 20 wt% HDPE and 80 wt% PS using a twin screw extruder at a temperature of 200°C. The results show that the mechanical properties are generally lower when weld lines are present. The decrease of the mechanical properties is much more pronounced for the blends. The addition of small amounts of a commercial styrene/butadiene copolymer significantly improves the strength and the elongation at break of this blend. An optimum copolymer concentration was observed at 3 wt%. This value coincides with the interphase saturation concentration of the copolymer obtained from the analysis of the DMTA (dynamic mechanical and thermal) properties of the blends. The copolymer was also found to induce important changes in the morphology of the blend. The interdiffusion of the polymer fronts in the weld region was also improved by the presence of the copolymer. It is believed that these two aspects contribute to the enhanced properties obtained with copolymer modified blends in presence of weld lines. An important effect of the injection temperature on the tensile strength and the elongation at break of welded samples with copolymer modified blends was observed. The effect of mold temperature on these properties was less important mainly at low injection temperatures. Only a slight effect of these two parameters was observed for the tensile modulus in the range of mold and injection temperatures considered in this study.

    Notizen: In injection molding of substrates for optical discs, precise transcription of pits and grooves is very important. For high-density optical discs, molding transcription for minute grooves with widths on the sub-micron level is required. In this paper, in order to clarify the relationship between molding conditions and transcription quantitatively, transcription of minute rectangular grooves (width 0.55 μm, depth 70 nm) in injection molding of polycarbonate resin was studied. The relationship between molding conditions and the transcription heights was verified. And, by introducing the equivalent thickness of the vitrified layer concept, a transcription model related to the minute groove width is proposed. This equivalent thickness of the vitrified layer is estimated to be 100 to 150 nm at the point of filling completion under a certain molding condition. Also, using the above description of the equivalent thickness of the vitrified layer, it is possible to estimate the extent of transcription under the various molding conditions.

    Notizen: The cavity transfer mixer (CTM) was primarily designed as a distributive mixing device to be used as an add-on unit to existing extruders. In determining the CTM overall mixing efficiency as well as its potential use for various applications, the flow patterns/characteristics within this mixer must be well understood. In this work, a fluid dynamics analysis package, FIDAP, based on the finite element method was employed to simulate the flow patterns in a CTM with 6 rows and 4 cavities per row. A 3D, isothermal flow analysis was carried out and the fluid of choice was a flexible polyvinylchloride whose rheological behavior is described by a power-law model fluid. The flow field was characterized in terms of velocity profiles, pressure distributions, shear rates/shear stresses generated and a parameter λ quantifying the elongational flow components. The results of the flow simulations were compared with experimental data. The CTM potential use for dispersive mixing was discussed.

    Notizen: Moldability diagrams for the filling and curing stages of a dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) based reaction injection molding (RIM) system were established based on a simplified engineering approach. Initial monomer temperature and filling time are the critical parameters for the filling stage whereas in the curing stage, mold wall temperature and demold time proved to be the main processing variables. The physical and thermal properties of the molded samples were examined and the results indicate that such simplified moldability diagrams are sufficiently accurate to establish the processing conditions for the system under investigation.
