    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé La relation entre la résorption du85Sr et du47Ca était mesuré au tibia et fémur des rats 24 heures après l'injection. La différence entre les manches et les bouts était, remarquable, mais pas entre les os séparates; en les tibiae, qui etait fracturé depuis 7 semaines et guéries, la relation etait identique à celui des tibiae manches normals. On a présumé que la découverte était due à des différences qualitatives plustot que quantitatives entre les procédé de minéralisation dans l'os cortical et trabeculair.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Das Verhältnis zwischen der Abnahme von85Sr und47Ca wurde von der Tibia und Femur 24 Std nach der Injektion bei Ratten gemessen. Man fand einen signifikanten Unterschied zwischen den Schaften und den Enden, aber nicht zwischen den verschiedenen Knochen. In 7 Wochen alten, verheilten Tibiafrakturen war das Verhältnis genau so wie in einem normalen Tibiaschaft. Das Resultat berechtigte zu der Annahme, daß der Unterschied in dem Mineralisierungsprozeß zwischen corticalen und spongiösen Knochen wahrscheinlich qualitativ und nicht quantitativ ist.
    Notes: Abstract The ratio between the uptake of85Sr and47Ca was measured in the tibiae and femora of rats 24 h after injection of the tracers. There was a significant difference between shafts and ends but not between the different bones; in healed tibial fractures, 7 weeks old, the ratio was identical to that of normal tibial shafts. The findings were interpreted to be related to qualitative rather than quantitative differences in mineralization between cortical and trabecular bone.

    Notes: Summary The ontogenetic development of the hypothalamic nuclei of the rat was examined from the 16th post-coital day to adult age in both sexes, which were determined separately. The following conclusions have been drawn: 1. The hypothalamus is visible already before the 16th day of gestation. 2. The walls of the third ventricle are first composed of primitive cell layers, from which the migration of neurons proceeds on the 15th or 16th day. At this stage the differentiation of the wall of the third ventricle occurs: the germinal-, mantle-and marginal layers appear. 3. The differentiation of the nuclei starts, with some exceptions, before the 19th day of gestation. 4. Nn. suprachiasmaticus, supraopticus, periventricularis anterior, arcuatus and one part of paraventricularis differentiate from the lateral border of the germinal layer. Nn. ventromedialis, dorsomedialis, hypothalamicus anterior, praeoptici, praemamillaris ventralis, praemamillaris dorsalis, mamillaris medialis, mamillaris lateralis and the greater part of paraventricullaris differentiate from the mantle layer. Lateral nuclei, of which only nucleus tuberomamillarius has been described, differentiate from the marginal layer. 5. Some nuclei which belong to the hypothalamo-hypophyseal area have a peak in their differentiation during the critical period when the function of the hypothalamo-hypophyseal axis also starts. 6. It is stated that the development of the nuclei in the rat hypothalamus compared to that of the other mammals is similar only to that of the mouse. It takes place quite slowly before and after birth. 7. Sexual differences are not to be seen in the development of the nuclei.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Aucun effet diabétogène ni hyperglycémiant aigu de l'hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) n'a été décelé par des déterminations de la glycémie à jeun (avant et 2–8 h après l'administration d'HCT) et de la tolérance au glucose effectuées chez des rats normaux et des rats sensibilisés à un effet diabétogène par une pancréatectomie subtotale ou par l'injection d'une dose subdiabétogène d'alloxane, au cours d'un traitement de 6 semaines par des doses de 50–200 mg/kg · jour d'HCT p. o. — De fortes doses (plus de 3 ml/kg) de N-monométhylamide de l'acide acétique (NMMAA), solvant qui fut utilisé dans la préparation d'une solution injectable commerciale d'hydrochlorothiazide, ont par contre exercé des effets diabétogènes très marqués chez le rat. Toute dose léthale de NMMAA a induit chez cet animal un syndrome diabétique, c'est-à-dire une hyperglycémie progressive avec aeido-cétose métabolique, ressemblant au syndrome diabétique aigu induit par l'injection d'une forte dose de sérum anti-insulinique. — Des fractions de doses léthales administrées quotidiennement pendant plusieurs jours ont exercé des effets diabétogènes et léthaux cumulatifs: la substance ou l'un de ses métabolites toxiques apparaît persister longtemps dans l'organisme du rat.-Des doses subléthales de NMMAA ont induit une hyperglycémie réversible d'une durée de quelques jours. Nous avons donc constaté que le diabète produit par le NMMAA était soit transitoire soit léthal. Aucun signe de toxicité ne s'est manifesté au cours d'un traitement de 6–8 mois par des doses inférieures à 0,5 ml/kg · jour. — Chez les rats intoxiqués par une dose léthale de NMMAA, une corrélation positive très significative a été notée entre les valeurs sériques d'insuline immuno-réactive (IRI) et les valeurs de glycémie. Bien qu'ils aient été, à glycémie comparable, supérieurs à ceux constatés dans le sérum de rats normaux après surcharge de glucose, les taux d'IRI se trouvant dans le sérum des rats intoxiqués n'ont pas été en mesure de s'opposer à l'élévation régulière de la glycémie jusqu'à la mort. — L'effet hypoglycémiant d'insuline cristalline porcine est apparu inhibé chez les rats intoxiqués par le NMMAA, comparé à l'effet observé chez des rats normaux ou en diabète alloxanique.-Utilisant l'augmentation de l'oxydation du premier atome de carbone du glucose-l-C14 par le tissu adipeux épididymaire du rat, in vitro, comme index métabolique de l'activité insulino ïde du sérum (ILA), nous n'avons pas constaté, dans le sérum des rats intoxiqués et en état de forte hyperglycémie, des taux d'ILA significativement supérieurs à ceux présents dans le sérum de rats témoins à jeun. Alors que, chez des rats normaux, la fraction de l'ILA sérique supprimable par sérum anti-insulinique (SILA) s'élevait fortement, comme l'IRI, au cours de l'hyperglycémie induite par une surcharge de glucose, cette fraction SILA n'est pas apparue en quantités décelables dans le sérum des animaux intoxiqués. L'IRI sérique de ces animaux n'a donc semble-t-il pas exercé d'effet «insulin-like» sur le tissu adipeux isolé de rat normal.-Les faits observés amènent à la conclusion que les rats intoxiqués par le NMMAA inactivent et l'insuline endogène et l'insuline exogène. Bien qu'ayant perdu son activité métabolique, l'insuline endogène inactivée reste immunologiquement compétente.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Große Dosen von Hydrochlorothiazid (50–200 mg/kg/Tag, oral) über einen Zeitraum von 5–6 Wochen riefen weder eine Steigerung der Nüchternblutzuckerspiegel, noch eine Herabsetzung der Glucosetoleranz bei normalen Ratten oder Ratten hervor, deren Empfindlichkeit gegenüber diabetogenen Substanzen durch eine subtotale Pankreatektomie oder durch subdiabetogene Dosen von Alloxan erhöht worden war. 8 Std. nach einer Einzeldosis von 50 mg/kg Hydroehlorothiazid fand sich keine Blutzuckererhöhung. Dagegen hatten große Dosen (über 3.5 ml/kg) des Lösungsmittels N-Monomethylacetamid (NMMAA), das vorübergehend zur Herstellung eines injizierbaren Hydrochlorothiazidpräparates gedient hat, deutliche diabetogene Effekte bei Ratten. Letale Dosen von NMMAA führten immer zu einem diabetischen Syndrom, d.h. fortschreitende Hyperglykämie mit Ketonämie und metabolischer Acidose, das mit dem diabetischen Syndrom nach Verabreichung großer Mengen von Anti-Insulin Serum große Ähnlichkeit aufwies. Bruchteile der letalen Dosis, die wiederholt an aufeinanderfolgenden Tagen gegeben wurden, summierten sich in ihrer diabetogenen und letalen Wirkung : NMMAA oder seine wirksamen Abbauprodukte scheinen längere Zeit im Organismus zu persistieren. Subletale Dosen von NMMAA lösten eine reversible Blutzuckererhöhung für einige Tage aus. Der durch NMMAA hervorgerufene Diabetes war also entweder reversibel oder tödlich. Die Langzeitbehandlung mit Dosen unter 0.8 ml/kg führte auch nach 6–8 Monaten zu keinerlei toxischen Anzeichen. Bei Ratten, die mit letalen Dosen von NMMAA vergiftet wurden, stiegen die Insulin-und Glucose-Spiegel im Blut gleichsinnig an, wobei das Insulin ähnliche Konzentrationen wie bei normalen Ratten erreichte, bei denen orale oder i.v. Glucosezufuhr zu einer entsprechenden Blutzuckersteigerung geführt hatte.-Das während der NMMAA Hyperglykämie sezernierte Insulin bewirkte also keine Blutzuckersenkung. Im Gegensatz zu der glucoseinduzierten Hyperglykämie bei der normalen Ratte stieg die mit Antiinsulin hemmbare insulinähnliche Aktivität während der NMMAAHyperglykämie nicht auf meßbare Werte an, d.h. das IRI der vergifteten Tiere schien auf normales, isoliertes Fettgewebe keinen insulinähnlichen Effekt auszuüben.-Die blutzuckersenkende Wirkung von exogenem SchweineInsulin war bei mit NMMAA vergifteten Ratten niedriger als bei Normaltieren oder Ratten mit Alloxandiabetes.-Diese Befunde veranlassen zu der Schlußfolgerung, daß mit NMMAA vergiftete Ratten exogenes und endogenes Insulin inaktivieren, wobei das inaktivierte endogene Insulin trotz des Verlustes seiner Stoffwechsel-wirkung immunologisch aktiv bleibt.
    Notes: Summary Large doses of hydrochlorothiazide (50-200mg/kg/day p.o.) given for 5 to 6 weeks did not induce any increase in the fasting blood-sugar concentration, nor any decrease of glucose tolerance in normal rats and in rats “sensitized” toward diabetogenic agents by a subtotal pancreatectomy or by a sub-diabetogenic dose of alloxan. No increase in blood sugar was found in the 8 h following a single oral dose of 50 mg/kg of hydrochlorothiazide. —Large doses (〉 3.5 ml/kg) of the solvent N-monomethyl-acetamide (NMMAA), used at one time in the preparation of one brand of hydrochlorothiazide for injection, on the other hand, exerted marked diabetogenic effects in the rat. Lethal doses of NMMAA always induced a diabetic syndrome, i.e. progressive hyperglycaemia with ketonaemia and metabolic acidosis resembling the diabetic syndrome induced by large doses of antiinsulin serum. Fractions of lethal doses given repeatedly on successive days had additive diabetogenic and lethal effects: the drug or its toxic metabolites appeared to persist for a long time in the organism.-Sublethal doses of NMMAA induced a reversible hyperglycaemia of some days' duration. Thus the diabetes induced by NMMAA was either transitory or lethal. Chronic treatment with doses 〈 0.8 ml/kg/day did not induce any signs of toxicity within 6–8 months. In the rats intoxicated with lethal doses of NMMAA, the serum concentration of immunoreactive insulin (IRI) increased simultaneously with the glycaemia, and attained the same levels as in normal rats with similar blood glucose concentrations established by oral or i.v. loads with glucose.-The insulin secreted during NMMAA hyperglycaemia, thus, did not lower the blood sugar. During NMMAA hyperglycaemia, in contrast to glucose-induced hyperglycaemia in normal rats, the fraction of the insulin-like-activity of the serum suppressed by anti-insulin serum (SILA) did not rise to detectable levels : i. e. the IRI of the intoxicated animals did not appear to exert an insulin-like effect on normal isolated adipose tissue.-The blood-sugar-lowering effect of exogenous porcine insulin was depressed in rats intoxicated with NMMAA in comparison with normal animals or animals with alloxan-induced diabetes.-The findings lead to the conclusion that rats intoxicated with NMMAA inactivate exogenous as well as endogenous insulin. Although losing its metabolic activity, the inactivated endogenous insulin remains immunologically competent.

    Notes: Summary The monoamine innervation of the cerebellum of the rat has been studied by both in vivo and in vitro techniques using the histochernical fluorescence method for the demonstration of catecholamines (CA) and certain tryptamines. By way of a pharmacological approach using inter alia protriptyline, which acts mainly by blocking the membrane pump of the noradrenaline (NA) neurons, evidence was obtained that CA nerve terminals in the cerebellum mainly represent NA nerve terminals. These were found to innervate practically all parts of the cerebellar cortex with a patchy innervation pattern and with an innervation of especially the anterior and posterior lobes. The terminals mainly seem to make axodendritic contacts in the molecular and granular layers without any strict localization of the terminal plexus to any special plane of the cerebellar folia. The fibers enter the cerebellum via the inferior cerebellar peduncle and run in the white matter of the cortex cerebelli. Incubation studies with 6-hydroxytryptamine indicate that there exists also a 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) innervation of the cortex cerebelli, although not as pronounced as the NA innervation. The 5-HT nerve terminals are very fine, varicose fibers and innervate mainly the molecular layer, especially of the anterior lobe. The terminals run mainly in the transverse plane of the folium parallel to the surface. Thus, the pattern of innervation of these 5-HT afferents is different from that of the NA nerve terminals. In the uvula, structures which may represent the “rosettes” of the mossy fibers or golgi axon terminals in the granular layer take up and accumulate monoamines after incubation with amine in vitro. The exact nature of these structures remains to be elucidated.The cerebellar nuclei receive a very low to low degree of innervation of NA and 5-HT nerve terminals.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung 1. Durchtritt und Bindung von 3H-markiertem Ouabain, Digitoxin, Digoxin, Peruvosid und Proscillaridin wurden am isolierten, durchströmten Dünndarm von Ratten und Meerschweinchen in vitro untersucht. 2. Der Durchtritt der Glykoside durch die Darmwand ist proportional der Konzentration. Für die Penetrationsfähigkeit ergibt sich bei der Ratte die Reihenfolge: Digitoxin, Peruvosid, Proscillaridin = Digoxin, Ouabain; für das Meeschweinchen: Proscillaridin, Peruvosid = Digitoxin, Ouabain, Digoxin. 3. Die Bindung von Digitoxin im Darmgewebe ist bei Ratte und Meerschweinchen am größten. Das Verhältnis der Glykosid-Gehalte pro g Gewebe und pro ml Durchströmungsflüssigkeit betrug bei der Ratte für Digitoxin 3,3, für Ouabain 0,18, für Digoxin 0,6, für Peruvosid 1,1 und für Proscillaridin 1,2; beim Meerschweinchen für Digitoxin 4,2, für Ouabain 0,8, für Digoxin 0,16, für Peruvosid 0,9 und für Proscillaridin 1,4. 4. Auch in vivo, an abgebundenen Jejunumschlingen nimmt bei Ratten die resorbierte Menge proportional mit dem Angebot zu. Die Retention hängt vor allem von der mit der Galle ausgeschiedene Menge ab. 5. Es ergab sich kein Anhaltspunkt dafür, daß bei der Resorption der Glykoside ein Prozeß mit begrenzter Kapazität limitierend wird.
    Notes: Summary 1. Penetration and binding of tritiated ouabain, digitoxin, digoxin, peruvosid and proscillaridin were studied on isolated segments of the small intestine of rats and guinea pigs in vitro. 2. Penetration of glycosides through the intestinal wall is proportional to concentration. In rat intestine the penetration rate follows the order: digitoxin, peruvosid, proscillaridin = digoxin, ouabain; in guinea pig intestine: proscillaridin peruvosid = digitoxin, ouabain, digoxin. 3. In intestinal tissue of rats as well as of guinea pigs binding of digitoxin is highest. The relation of the glycoside content per g intestine to the content per ml perfusion fluid in the rat is 3.3 for digitoxin, 0.18 for ouabain, 0.6 for digoxin, 1.1 for peruvosid and 1.2 for proscillaridin; in the guinea pig 4.2 for digitoxin, 0.8 for ouabain, 0.16 for digoxin, 0.9 for peruvosid and 1.4 for proscillaridin. 4. Also in vivo the absorption of glycosides in tied loops of rat intestine is proportional to the amount offered. The retention of glycosides depends mainly on the excretion via the bile. 5. There is no indication that the absorption of glycosides depends on a process of limited capacity.

    Notes: Summary In the first experiment rats were trained in black-white discrimination, then injected with 7.5, 10.0, or 15.0 mg/kg of pentylenetetrazol (Metrazol) or saline. Injections were given immediately or 15 min following training. The animals were retested 24 hours later. Improved performance was observed for drug groups, but the extent of improvement was a joint function of the amount of drug and the time at which it was given. Animals given 10 mg/kg showed greater retention when injection was delayed. In a second experiment animals were given spaced trials in a position discrimination task, extending over a period of several days. Following each day's, session, animals were injected with pentylenetetrazol or saline at intervals of 0, 5 or 10 min. A maximum facilitation effect was obtained at the 10-min interval.

    Notes: Summary In 17 male Wistar rats in antidiuresis 10 different nephron segments and arteries are identified with the aid of Lowry's technique, dissected and total-and (Mg++)-adenosintriphosphatase (=ATPase) determined. (Na+K+)-activated ATPase in the distal tubule is four to five times (max. eight times) more active than in the proximal segment. This difference of activity may speak for a high pump mechanism mediated by the way of a (Na+K+)-activated enzyme system in the distal nephron and for a partially passive reabsorption of sodium from the proximal convolution.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Wirkung von CCl4 auf die Ascorbinsäure-Konzentration in der Leber und die Ascorbinsäure-Ausscheidung mit dem Harn wurde bei erwachsenen Ratten innerhalb der ersten 22 Std nach der Applikation untersucht. In der Frühphase der CCl4-Wirkung kommt es zum Anstieg der Konzentration in der Leber. Der früheste signifikante Anstieg wurde 30 min nach der Applikation beobachtet. Das Maximum wurde dosisabhängig zwischen 90 und 180 min erreicht. Das Anwachsen der Ascorbinsäure-Konzentration in der Leber wird mit einer Aktivitätssteigerung vorhandener an der Ascorbinsäure-Synthese beteiligter Enzyme erklärt. Der Erhöhung der Leber-Ascorbinsäure-Konzentration folgt ein dosisabhängiger Abfall mit einem Minimum 12 Std nach der Applikation, der mit einer gleichfalls dosisabhängigen Erhöhung der Ascorbinsäure-Ausscheidung verbunden ist. Danach kommt es zu einem im zeitlichen Verlauf dosisabhängigen Wiederanstieg der Leber-Ascorbinsäure-Konzentration.
    Notes: Summary The effects of carbon tetrachloride on the concentration of ascorbic acid in the liver and on ascorbic acid excretion in the urine of adult rats were studied over a period of 22 hours after intraperitonal application. During the initial phase of the carbon tetrachloride effect, there results an increase in the concentration of ascorbic acid in the liver. The earliest significant rise was observed 30 minutes after application. The maximal rise came between 90 and 180 minutes, depending on the dose. The increase in the ascorbic acid concentration in the liver is explained by an increase in activity of those enzymes present which participate in ascorbic acid synthesis. The enhancement of hepatic ascorbic acid concentration is followed by a dose-related decrease which reaches a minimum 12 hours after application and which is accompanied by a silmultaneous increase in ascorbic acid excretion. Thereafter in the course of time, there results a renewed dose-dependant increase in the ascorbic acid concentration in liver.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Ausgehend von zahlreichen neurochemischen und neuropathologischen Veröffentlichungen über die 3-Acetylpyridin (3-AP)-Vergiftung der Ratte wurde die bioelektrische Aktivität im Cortex und in subcorticalen Gebieten bei 15 3-AP-vergifteten Ratten studiert. Bei den künstlich beatmeten Tieren wurden mit Hilfe eines stereotaktischen Gerätes rostfreie Stahlelektroden im Hippocampus, Mandelkern, in der Formatio reticularis, im N. septi lateralis und N. caudatus sowie Silberelektroden im Cortex implantiert. Während der akuten 3-AP-Vergiftung konnten weder corticale noch subcorticale bioelektrische Veränderungen beobachtet werden. Vor und während der 3-AP-Vergiftung wurde die Formatio reticularis und der N. caudatus gereizt. Auch hierbei ergaben sich keine Unterschiede. Am Ende der Versuche wurde Cardiazol i.p. injiziert und regelmäßig eine diffuse Krampfaktivität provoziert. Die Befunde werden mit den elektrophysiologischen, neuropathologischen, neurologischen und neurochemischen Beobachtungen anderer Autoren diskutiert mit dem Ergebnis, daß die sog. Rollkrämpfe nach 3-AP-Vergiftung wahrscheinlich in der Hauptsache auf Läsionen der unteren Oliven zurückgeführt werden müssen.
    Notes: Summary Numerous neurochemical and neuropathologioal experimental studies concerning the 3-acetylpyridine (3-AP) poisoning of the rat have been previously published. In this paper the results of experiments on the bioelectrical activity in the cortex and in subcortical areas are presented on 15 rats poisoned with 3-AP. Stainless steel electrodes were implanted stereotactically in the hippocampus, nucleus amygdalae, formatio reticularis, nucleus septi lateralis and nucleus caudatus, and silver electrodes on the cortex of the artificially respirated animals. During the acute 3-AP poisoning neither cortical nor subcortical bioelectrical changes could be observed. The effect of stimulation on the formatio reticularis and the nucleus caudatus was not altered by the 3-AP intoxication. At the end of the experiments metrazol was injected intraperitoneally and in all cases diffuse convulsive discharges could be evoked. The findings are discussed and compared with the observations of other authors. The findings are comparible with the hypothesis that the so called “Rollkrämpfe” after 3-AP poisoning are caused by lesions in the oliva inferior.

    Notes: Summary An NAD dependent “digitoxose dehydrogenase” has been demonstrated in extracts from rat liver; the Km values of this enzyme have been determined. Polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis shows that there are at least four different proteins capable of oxidizing digitoxose. After i.p. injections of digitoxose into normal rats 53.3% of the deoxysugar injected are excreted in the animals' urine as digitoxose, digitoxonic acid or digitoxonic-γ-lactone. The corresponding figure for adrenalectomized rats instead of normal animals is 68.3%-“Digitoxose dehydrogenase” of the rat liver seems to be a constitutive enzyme. The increased excretion of digitoxonic-lactone following adrenalectomy can be interpreted as a “permissive effect” of the adrenal hormones upon digitoxose metabolism beyond the stage of the digitoxonic lactone.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wurde der Einfluß verschiedener Chelatbildner auf die Verteilung und Ausscheidung von trägerfreiem und isotopisch verdünntem Radioeisen bei der Ratte untersucht. Während bei gleichzeitiger Verabfolgung der Chelatbildner die Retention in allen Geweben herabgesetzt wird, führt die nachträgliche Verabreichung zu einer nur geringfügigen Mobilisierung von Depoteisen aus Leber und Milz. Die Wirksamkeit ist im Falle von isotopisch verdünntem Radioeisen größer. Äthylendi-(α-o-hydroxyphenyl)glycin, 2-(β-Aminoäthoxy)cyclohexylamintetraacetat und Desferrioxamin B erwiesen sich als die wirksamsten Verbindungen, wobei jedoch die hohe Toxicität der ersteren die praktische Verwendung ausschließt.
    Notes: Summary The influence of various chelating agents on the distribution and excretion of radioiron, carrier-free or diluted with stable carrier, was studied in rats. Simultaneous administration of chelating agents lowers the retention of radioactive iron in all tissues whereas after delayed treatment a small fraction of storage iron can be removed from liver and spleen. The efficacy is higher in the case of isotopically diluted radioactive iron. The most effective compounds are ethylenedi-(α-o-hydroxyphenyl)glycine, 2-(β-aminoethoxy)cyclohexylaminetetraacetate, and desferrioxamine B. The practical value of the former chelator, however, is excluded by its high toxicity.

Bei Urethan-narkotisierten Ratten wurde eine Jejunumschlinge mit14C-markierten Arzneimitteln in gepufferter isotonischer Kochsalzlösung mit einem pH von 6–8 (Amidopyrin, Anilin, Antipyrin, Benzoesäure, Salicylsäure) und einem pH von 2,2–3,0 (Amidopyrin, Benzoesäure) perfundiert. 2. Wurde die Durchblutung von etwa 1,5 auf 0,2 ml/min · g Feuchtgewicht gesenkt, dann nahm die Resorptionsrate aller Arzneimittel ab. Wurde umgekehrt die Durchblutung von anfänglich niedrigen Werten auf hohe Werte gesteigert, dann stieg die Resorption der nichtionisierten Arzneimittel in entsprechender Weise an, während die Resorption der ionisierten Arzneimittel nicht beeinflußt wurde. Bei gleichbleibender mittlerer Durchblutung (0,6–0,7 ml/min · g) blieb die Resorptionsrate der nichtionisierten Arzneimittel (mit Ausnahme von Amidopyrin) konstant, während sie bei den ionisierten über einen Zeitraum von 60 min um 15–22% abnahm. 3. Das abweichende Verhalten der ionisierten Arzneimittel gegenüber Durchblutungsänderungen wird auf folgenden Mechanismus zurückgeführt: maßgebend für ihre Resorption ist der leicht saure und von der Perfusionslösung weitgehend unabhängige pH-Wert (virtual pH) in einem Bereich unmittelbar an der Mucosaoberfläche (microclimate). Eine verminderte Mucosadurchblutung führt nicht nur zu einer Verringerung der Dränagewirkung (die alle Pharmaka betrifft), sondern auch zu einer hypoxischen Schädigung des Zottenepithels und einer Anderung des virtuellen pH, die nur die Resorption der ionisierten Arzneimittel beeinträchtigt.
    Notes: Summary 1. Jejunal loops were prepared in anaesthetized rats and perfused with14C-labelled drugs in buffered isotonic saline solutions at pH 6–8 (amidopyrine, aniline, antipyrine, benzoic acid, salicylic acid) and at pH 2.2–3.0 (amidopyrine, benzoic acid). The blood flow in the loops and the absorption rate of the drugs were determined simultaneously. 2. A decrease of the blood flow from about 1.5 to O.2 ml/min X g wet tissue diminished the absorption rate of all drugs, whereas an increase of the blood flow from low to high values caused only an increased absorption rate of the unionized but not of the ionized drugs. When the blood flow was held constant (0.6–0.7 ml/ min X g wet tissue), the absorption rate of the unionized drugs (with the exception of amidopyrine) remained constant, whereas the absorption rate of the ionized drugs decreased by 15–22% within 60 min. 3. The different reaction of the ionized drugs to blood flow alterations is assumed to be due to the following mechanism: the absorption of the ionized drugs is substantially favoured by a “virtual pH” near the mucosal border which is slightly acidic and largely independent of the pH within the gut lumen. A period with insufficient mucosal blood flow results not only in a diminished drainage of the mucosa-which affects the absorption rate of all drugs-, but also in a hypoxic impairment of the epithelium and its capability to maintain the “virtual pH”. This failure affects only the absorption rate of the ionized drugs.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Im doppelseitigen Tourniquet-Schock mit vierstündiger Ischämie und 28°C Umgebungstemperatur starben die Kontrolltiere nach rund 2 Std unter Entwicklung eines postischämischen Ödems. Mit dem Proteinaseninhibitor Trasylol konnte sowohl das Ödem vermindert als auch das Überleben verlängert werden. Als günstigste Dosis erwies sich eine Gabe von 25000 KIE/kg kurz vor Tourniquet-Lösen. Danach überlebten von 20 Tieren 13 (65%) die vierfache Zeit von Kontrollen, während sich 7 (35%) völlig erholten. Durch intravenöse Applikation vor Anlegen der Tourniquets konnte zwar die lokale Ödementwicklung gehemmt, die Überlebenszeit aber nicht verbessert werden. Daraus wird auf mindestens zwei Angriffspunkte der Trasylolwirkung geschlossen.
    Notes: Summary In experiments with tourniquet application on both hind legs for 4 h at a temperature of 28°C throughout the experiments the controls succumbed about 2 h after tourniquet release, developing postischemic edema. The development of the edema could be diminished by the protease inhibitor Trasylol as well as the survival time could be prolonged. The optimal effect was seen with the injection of 25000 KIE per kg body-weight i.v. just prior to tourniquet release. In this group of 20 animals 13 (65%) survived four times the time of the controls and 7 (35%) recovered completely. By intravenous injection just prior to the application of the tourniquets the local edema could also be diminished but the survival time could not be prolonged. It is concluded that the Trasylol effect must be brought about by at least two modes of action.

    Notes: Summary With three phosphohydrolases, i. e. alkaline phosphatase (Na+K+), ATPase and (Mg++) ATPase, a segmentation of the proximal tubule and a marked difference between the short (superficial) and long (Juxtamedullary) nephron is revealed by quantitative histochemistry. With the exception of the superficial nephron of the male rat, alkaline phosphatase activity increases along the proximal tubule independent of sex. (Na+K+) ATPase and (Mg++) ATPase show in both types of nephrons a decrease of activity along the proximal tubule. The juxtamedullary nephron is more active than the superficial. Parallelism of the site of avtivity for alkaline phosphatase and the location of reabsorption of phosphate ions is discussed. Morphological and physiological data from the literature are brought into connexion with the enzymatic changes of a (Na+K+) ATPase activity decrease.

    Notes: To clarify the deformation mechanism in polyblends of polypropylene with ethylene-propylene rubber having different compositions, simultaneous measurements of the infrared dichroism with stress and strain under a constant rate of strain of 1.64%/min have been carried out. The orientation function of the crystallographic c axis of polypropylene in the blends has been obtained as a function of strain ranging from 0 to 20% and of polypropylene content ranging from 0.3 to 1.0. These results have been compared with the temperature dependences of the dynamic Young's modulus and of the loss modulus, as well as of stress-strain curves for the same blends. The modulus data analyzed by Kerner's equation reveal the occurrence of phase inversion at polypropylene contents higher than about 0.5, and this is supported by the infrared dichroism data. The strong effect of quenching on crystalline structure and mechanical properties of pure polypropylene has also been elucidated.

    Notes: Equipment and methods have been developed which allow photomicrographic determination of the stress-strain properties of the individual craze. Serial cyclic tensile tests on polycarbonate crazes are described. Under stress the typical dry polycarbonate craze thickens solely by straining; no adjacent polymer of normal density is converted to craze material. The craze exhibits a yield stress followed by a recoverable flow to roughly 40-50% strain at 6000-8000 psi. On return to zero stress the craze exhibits creep recovery at a decelerating rate. The yield stress and loss factor of each cycle decrease with increasing initial strain and cycles initiating at 50% strain or more show completely Hookean behavior. Creep recovery results in recovery of yield stress and loss factor also. Craze tensile behavior is suggested to be essentially an extension of the craze formation process. Decrease in elastic modulus and yield stress with increasing strain are rationalized in terms of strain-produced decrease in density and resultant increase in stress concentration factor on the microscopic polymer elements of the craze. Polymer surface tension and the large internal specific surface area of the craze are suggested to be important factors in the large creep recovery rates of the craze.

    Notes: A method of determining distributions of the degree of polymerization by means of probability theory is derived. This method, based on Kolmogorov's forward differential equation, is illustrated by application to two familiar kinetic schemes and is used to derive the distribution of degree of polymerization for free-radical polymerization with diffusion-controlled termination.

    Notes: The effect of birefringence of a polymer film upon its photographic light-scattering pattern is considered for the case of a single, anisotropic, two-dimensional spherulite imbedded in a birefringent matrix. It is shown that for the case of a polarizer and analyzer crossed at +45° and -45° to the analyzer, the scattering pattern is modified in a manner agreeing with experimental observation.

    Notes: Osmotic-pressure, viscosity, and light-scattering measurements have been carried out on dilute solutions of poly-N-vinylcarbazole fractions (4 〈 10-4M 〈 230) in toluene, dioxane, and benzene. The theta temperature for poly-N-vinylcarbazole in toluene solutions has been found to be 37 ± 1°C. The intrinsic viscosity of poly-N-vinylcarbazole in toluene at 37°C is represented by [η]θ = 76.2 × 10-3M̄n0.50. Values of the characteristic ratios (〈L2〉0/M)1/2 and σ = (〈L2〉0/〈L2〉0f)1/2 have been obtained as 633 × 10-11 and 2.85, respectively. It appears that the large σ value is due to the steric repulsion between large side groups.

    Notes: Mechanical relaxation data as a function of temperature (ca. 1 Hz) have been obtained for several samples of isotactic polypropylene crystallized from the melt, which exhibit both α and β forms as well as varying degrees of lamella orientation. The samples ranged in morphology from an unoriented sample showing only the α form to one highly oriented having approximately 90 per cent the β form. Results for the logarithmic decrement Δ and loss modulus G″ are that the low temperature (ca. -75°C) and glass temperature (ca. 0°C) relaxations show little or no sensitivity to orientation in the α form, but that the intensity of the two processes is different in the α form than in the β form for samples of nearly equal overall per cent crystallinity. In both Δ and G″, the low-temperature peak decreased and the glass temperature peak increased in intensity as the fraction of β form crystallinity present increased. Data for the high-temperature relaxation (ca. 80°C) indicate a dependence upon orientation and/or crystal form in addition to a dependence upon per cent crystallinity.

    Notes: The viscometric behavior of linear polycaprolactam has been studied in the absence of the electroviscous effect in aqueous solvents containing 85% and 64.5% formic acid and in trifluoroethanol, as a function of temperature and also under unperturbed conditions. Results are discussed in terms of the existing theories; in particular, the negative temperature coefficient of the intrinsic viscosity arises only from the variation of the expansion coefficient, the molecule in the unperturbed state being a normal random coil. The absence of aggregation and draining effects in the above solvents has been varified.

    Notes: Polymers of poly(N-acyl and N-aroyl aziridines) were studied by x-ray diffraction. All the crystalline polymers studied have a triclinic unit cell with two monomer units per unit cell. The a and c (fiber direction) parameters (4.9 and 6.5 A, respectively) are essentially the same for all the cells. The b parameter for the N-acyl polymers, however, increases steadily by a factor of 2 A per methylene group added to the lateral chains. The densities calculated for the unit cells are in agreement with the experimental values obtained. The most probable structure is one in which the molecules assume a planar configuration with the main chain not fully extended. The lateral groups are tilted from the c axis by an angle of 54° in a parallel configuration and alternate on each side of the main chain. This permits these lateral groups to assume packing similar to that of polyethylene. A brief description of the techniques used in this interpretation is included.

    Notes: Results from characterization of melt-polymerized nylon 66 by various solution property measurements are reported and employed in analysis of typical molecular weight and compositional distributions for these systems. Critical attention is paid to application of standard procedures including light scattering, viscosity, membrane osmometry and other colligative property measurements in arriving at satisfactory specification of polymer molecular weight averages. Particular consideration is given to polymers extending appreciably beyond the lower and higher limits in molecular weight normally encountered. The conclusions drawn are: (1) in the range of number-average molecular weights less than about 25 000, nylon 66 as ordinarily prepared by melt condensation consists principally of linear species approximating the “most probable” distribution; (2) small amounts of cyclic oligomers are present in all samples: (3) increase in the extent of the melt polycondensation to progressively higher stages is accompanied by secondary reactions and the formation of branched components terminating ultimately in crosslinked, insoluble gels. Intrinsic viscosity-molecular weight relationships in seven solvents, applicable to nylon polymers meeting the requirements of (1) above, are derived.

    Notes: For an infinitely repeated regular polymer chain structure the only vibrations which are optically active are those in which the phase of the motion is the same in each unit (the factor-group modes). Frequencies for which the phase difference is nonzero are optically inactive but can become activated by the presence of defects in the chain. Such defects would normally be chemical impurities or conformational irregularities in the chain. A simple theory is developed which shows that for a dilute system of defects the major characteristics determining possible activation of the nonfactor-group modes are: (1) the strength of the coupling between the defect vibration and the vibrations of the neighboring chain, and (2) whether or not the natural frequency of the defect vibration lies inside a lattice band of the regular chain. An analysis of the low- and high-frequency regions of the spectrum of low-density polyethylene, based on the above considerations, indicates that several features of the spectrum can be associated with defect-induced absorption. A similar explanation can account for certain intensity changes in the C—Cl stretching region of syndiotactic poly(vinyl chloroide) when this polymer is submitted to mechanical treatment.

    Notes: A general description is given for relations among the optical quantities obtained from fluorescence polarization measurements on bulk polymer stained by fluorescent groups: the moments of distribution of orientations of the fluorescent groups, and those of the structural units of the polymer (chain segments) on which the groups are adsorbed. Two assumptions as to the biaxial symmetry of the bulk polymer and the cylindrical symmetry of the optical anisotropy of the fluorescent element, both for the absorption and emission processes, reduce the intensities of the polarized fluorescence to a 3 × 3 matrix L which is asymmetric (Lij ≠ Lji), as has frequently been observed in experiments. The components of the L matrix are related to those of the J matrix which is so defined as to describe the fourth moments of the distribution of orientations of the structural units on the basis of a random distribution of the rotational angle of the unit about the segment axis. It is found that the use of the method of fluorescence polarization combined with absorption dichroism and/or emission gives the values of the optical anisotropy ratios of the fluorescent unit, and that the effects of the thermal agitation of the structural unit can be separated from the moments of the orientation distribution for the simplest case.

    Notes: Eight epoxy-diamine networks have been formed, diamines with 2 to 12 methylene groups being used as curing agents. Dynamic mechanical tests revealed four transition regions in the dynamic loss modulus/temperature relationship. Two possible explanations for the relaxation of the glycidyl portion of the structure are proposed. One of the relaxations could be due to the breakdown of hydrogen bonds through the hydroxyl and ether groups. The second could be ascribed to the relaxation of the unbonded glycidyl groups or a second relaxation of the glycidyl groups after the breakdown of the hydrogen bonds.

    Notes: Previous theoretical calculations of elastic constants for cellulose based on force constants for bond stretching and bending of valence angles have yielded axial stiffness values admittedly too low. The present analysis accounts for a hitherto unexamined geometrical effect associated with deformation of interchain hydrogen bonds. To do this, most primary bond deformations are neglected so the resulting calculation gives an upper bound for the axial stiffness. By using two different sets of hydrogen bond force constants, values of 24.6 and 31.9 × 1011 dyne/cm2 were obtained for Young's modulus in the chain direction. These values are very much larger than earlier calculations and experimental determinations from cellulosic fibers, indicating both the importance of the effect considered here and the likelihood of an exact analysis yielding an acceptable result.

    Notes: It is demonstrated that in a filled polymer the thermal stresses resulting from the difference in the thermal expansion coefficients of the filler and the polymer have significant effect on the apparent coefficient of thermal expansion of the composite. A model is constructed to aid the thermal stress analysis, and the results are found to agree well with the experimental data obtained from other sources. An expression for the apparent densities of filled polymers is also obtained but the agreement between the present prediction with an existing test result is found to be only qualitative.

    Notes: Diffusion coefficients and solubilities of methane in polyisobutylene have been measured at four temperatures between 102 and 188°C. in the pressure range 23-341 atm. Diffusion coefficients extrapolated to atmospheric pressure range from 1.72 × 10-6 cm.2/sec. at 102°C. to 1.5 × 10-5 cm.2/sec. at 188°C. corresponding to an activation energy for diffusion of 8.7 ± 0.4 kcal./mole. Solubilities are small, about one molecule of methane for every forty carbon atoms in the polyisobutylene at 300 atm. partial pressure of methane. Solubilities vary little with temperature, but show an apparent minimum between 127 and 188°C. With improved methods of data analysis, diffusion coefficients and solubilities have been recalculated from previously reported studies on nitrogen in branched polyethylene and methane in branched polyethylene, linear polyethylene, and polystyrene. Recalculated diffusion coefficients are essentially the same as those reported previously, but the recalculated solubilities are decreased from 2 to 30%. The solubilities of all five systems show strong deviations from Henry's law, i.e., increases in partial pressure of methane and nitrogen with respect to solubility exceed linearity. The partial pressure (or fugacity) - solubility data may be interpreted in terms of a sorption model in which sorbed molecules are accommodated in widely dispersed, unoccupied volumes or sites in the polymer. An almost equivalent, solution model in which the first sorbed molecules to enter the polymer are accommodated to a large extent in existing volumes in the polymer, with successively sorbed molecules swelling the polymer to a greater extent (i.e., partial molal volume of sorbed molecules, V1, increasing with concentration) can also account for these data.

    Notes: The discrepancy between the values of the anisotropy of methylene groups determined from crystal refractive indices, stress-optical data, and gas and liquid light-scattering depolarization is explained on the basis of the effect of the internal field on the polarizability of the isolated molecule. The internal field may arise from intermolecular or intramolecular interactions which depend upon molecular conformation and state of aggregation. A simple continuum calculation based upon an extension of the calculation of the Lorenz-Lorentz field is shown capable of accounting for the discrepancy.

    Notes: Nylon 66 films exhibiting form I melting behavior show the γ mechanical relaxation at -140°C. Samples which have form II melting behavior do not show this relaxation. The γ relaxation disappears when material having form I behavior is converted to material having form II behavior by annealing or by cold drawing. The form I and form II types of melting behavior are also found in poly(ethylene terephthalate); the interconversions and thermal behavior of the forms are analogous to the nylon 66 case. In poly(ethylene terephthalate), the β relaxation at -40 to -60°C is present only when form I melting behavior is found. Conversion to form II melting behavior by annealing or drawing (80°C) again causes the relaxation to disappear. No β relaxation was found in amorphous polymer. The γ dispersion in nylon 66 and the β dispersion in poly(ethylene terephthalate) can therefore be associated with the crystalline structure responsible for form I melting behavior. Form I melting behavior has been associated with foldedchain crystals based on previous work. It is therefore postulated that the γ dispersion in nylon 66 and the β dispersion in poly(ethylene terephthalate) are associated with motions in the chain folds. This assignment is not inconsistent with the change in the γ dispersion of nylon 66 with the number of backbone CH2 units, since these will affect the fold structure.

    Notes: The strength-limiting process in the fracture of semicrystalline fibers and highly oriented films is the rupture of tie molecules connecting the folded chain lamellae in the machine direction. This view is supported by the data on stress and temperature dependence of lifetime of fibers under load and on radical formation during the fracture experiment. The observed tensile strength, however, is about 10 times smaller and the number of fractured chains between 100 and 1000 times larger than expected on the basis of the known number of tie molecules in the fracture plane. This discrepancy is a consequence of the inhomogeneity of the micromorphology of fiber structure, which causes a much larger stress concentration on the most unfavorably located tie molecules than the average value one would expect in the case of perfectly uniform stress distribution on identical tie molecules. The fluctuation of amorphous layer thickness, of number and length of tie molecules, produces such a high stress concentration on some tie molecules throughout the sample that they rupture long before the average stress concentration is sufficient for chain fracture. By accumulation of damage caused by gradual chain rupture the weakening of the sample locally proceeds so far that at the maximum damage concentration, microcracks start to form, and the fiber breaks.

    Notes: The dynamic shear behavior of four highly amorphous polymers in the unstretched and stretched states (draw ratios 3:1 to 6:1) was investigated with a torsion pendulum at temperatures from 4.2°K to 180-300°K and frequencies from 0.4 to 3.2 cps. The polymers studied were polystyrene, poly(vinyl acetate), poly(vinyl propionate), and poly(isobutyl vinyl ether). Previously unreported loss maxima were found at 48°K (1.5 cps) and 149°K (1.3 cps) for poly(vinyl proplonate), at 10°K (1.0 cps) for poly(vinyl acetate) and at 9°K (1.6 cps) for poly(isobutyl vinyl ether). Uniaxial orientation increased the shear storage modulus G, measured with the torsion axis parallel to the stretch direction and caused changes in the loss peaks which depended on the polymer material studied.

    Notes: Small-angle x-ray scattering studies were made on bulk-crystallized samples and annealed oriented films of TMPS. The temperature dependence of the small-angle scattering was determined over a range of annealing conditions. The effect of sample molecular weight on the small-angle peaks was also studied. The peak intensity, measured at room temperature after annealing, was strongly dependent on the annealing conditions. The position of the peak gradually moved to smaller angles (larger d spacings) as the annealing temperature was raised. Surface free energies were deduced from the melting point dependence of the crystallite size. This surface energy was found to increase with molecular weight in accord with values deduced for spherulite growth rate-temperature dependence.

    Notes: A model is proposed to account for the regular twisting of radial ribbons in certain polymer spherulites. The model assumes that the ribbons have crystallographically regular fold surfaces and that growth of the ribbons is nucleation-controlled. The model leads directly to a possible mechanism of spherulitic growth in some polymers.

    Notes: A specimen of linear polyethylene was subjected to isothermal secondary crystallization at a series of temperatures below the primary isothermal crystallization temperature, the melting and primary crystallization stages being held constant throughout the investigation. Dilatometric measurements exhibit an S-character at low values of undercooling Tp - Ts, where Tp and Ts are, respectively, the primary and secondary crystallization temperatures; at larger undercoolings, however, an initial very rapid crystallization is followed by a very slow stage. When corrected for thermal contraction of the polymer, the net degree of secondary transformation is seen to peak at a temperature in the range 109-113°C. The S-character of the isotherms and the peaked temperature variation of degree of transformation lead to the conclusion that a large portion of the secondary crystallization consists of the nucleation and growth of the new crystallites. Johnson-Mehl-Avrami analysis leads to a model of heterogeneous nucleation within the remaining amorphous zones, followed by one-dimensional, diffusion-controlled growth.

    Notes: The strength and extensibility of an unfilled styrene-butadiene rubber vulcanizate were determined in constrained biaxial tension (essentially pure shear) by stretching thinwalled cylindrical specimens in the axial direction with an Instron tester while gas pressure was admitted to maintain constant the outside diameter of a specimen. The rupture stress, λ1b, and the extension ratio, λ1b, in the axial direction and the rupture stress, σ2b, in the circumferential direction were determined at extension rates from 0.0031 to 3.1 min-1 and temperatures from 25 to 90°C. Rupture data in simple tension were also obtained by testing ring specimens under similar test conditions. The time-temperature shift factor, aT, obtained by superposing rupture data at different temperatures, gives a constant activation energy of 35 kcal. Doubly logarithmic plots were prepared showing the dependence of σ1b/λ1b, σ2b, and λ1b from the biaxial tensile tests and of σb/λb and λb from the simple tensile tests on the temperature-reduced extension rate, \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \dot \lambda a_T $\end{document}. (The quantities σ1b/λ1b, σ2b, and σb/λb are rupture stresses based on the dimensions of undeformed specimens.) At equal values of \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \dot \lambda a_T $\end{document}, the extension ratios λ1b and λb are sensibly identical. The ratios σ1b/σb and σ2b/σb, as well as λbσ2b/σb, were obtained from rupture data read from the composite curves at selected values of \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \dot \lambda a_T $\end{document}. Also, similar ratios were derived from stress data at equal extensions in biaxial and simple tension for 1.25 ≤ λ ≤ 3.0, the range comparable to that in which rupture data were obtained. A consideration of the ratios given by both the rupture and the stress data shows that the von Mises failure criterion is not applicable, although the departure is small except at the larger values of λb.

    Notes: A statistical model for the stereospecific polymerization of vinly monomers on Ziegler-Natta catalytic systems is presented. The basic assumptions of the model are: (a) the catalytic centers are asymmetric, so that at a given catalytic center the monomer CH2=CHR is inserted into the chain with two different rates according to the two different configurations of the opening carbon atom having the R group; (b) the insertion of a monomeric unit in the growing chain is affected also by interactions with the previous monomeric unit. Isotactic, syndiotactic, atatic, or stereoblock polymers are obtained according to the relative values of the two energy parameters expressing these two effects.

    Notes: Heats of solution (ΔHexp) in solvents of increasing thermodynamic power have been measured for four polymers: polystyrene (PS), poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc), polyisobutylene (PIB) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). After subtraction from ΔHexp of an interaction term (calculated by the Hildebrand treatment based on solubility parameters) and the excess volume term, the quantity remaining is interpreted as the conformational energy contribution (ΔUconf) to the heat of solution. ΔUconf appears to correlate well with some basic conformational properties of the chain, such as the sign of the temperature coefficient of unperturbed dimensions derived from solution properties, and shows a monotonic behavior with α, the expansion coefficient of the polymer coil in the final solution. Numerical values of ΔUconf, at least for those cases in which polymer solubility parameters are known with some certainty, are much larger than those evaluated from rubber elasticity experiments (through the experimentally accessible value of the energy component of the force of retraction im simple elongation).

    Notes: Polyvinylpyridine of molecular weight 0.77 × 106 was crosslinked by 2.5, 5, and 10% BrCH2C6H4CO(CH2)8COC6H4CH2Br and by 10% ClCH2C6H4CH2Cl; quaternization of the gel was completed with n-butyl bromide. Swelling ratios in aqueous solutions of lithium, sodium, and 4-isopropyl-N-n-butylpyridinium bromide and in methanolic lithium bromide were determined. Selectivity increased in the sequence Li+ 〈Na+ 〈PrN+-C5H5. The Flory parameter χ1, which measures interaction between solvent and polymer, decreased from 1.5 kT to nearly zero with increasing density of crosslinks in the aqueous solutions, and from 3 kT to 0.5 kT in the methanol solutions. The inverse proportionality of q2/3 (q = swelling ratio) to the crosslinking density was approximately verified for swelling of the resins in water, methanol, and dimethylformamide.

    Notes: The proton spin-lattice relaxation times (T1) of linear polyethylenes (PE) of varying morphology were measured as a function of temperature. The T1 of oriented bulkcrystallized and solution-crystallized material was isotropic, in disagreement with calculations based on a sample dipole pair model. Motion in the non-crystalline regions of the samples is shown to be responsible for the T1 minimum occurring around -20°C. The dependence of T1 at the minimum on the long period reinforces the model of an amorphous fraction composed of disordered lamellar surface layers. The temperature of the T1 minimum and the dependence of T1 on the long period imply that the mobility of these amorphous regions is reduced in cold-drawn and solution-crystallized samples. This mobility irreversibly increases with annealing. In highly relaxed samples the motion of a small portion of the disordered regions is almost liquidlike, as indicated by the presence of a second shorter T1.

    Notes: The structural and steric isomerism of propylene polymers has been estimated on the basis of solution properties as well as infrared and high-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. Three general types of polypropylenes were prepared: polymers prepared with the cationic catalytic system AlCl3-C2H5Cl, stereoblock polymers obtained by successive extraction from a commercial product and isotactic polymers of low molecular weight obtained by thermal degradation of a highly isotactic polymer followed by hydrogenation with Adam's catalyst in dioxane at 40°C. The characterization of all samples was accomplished by equilibrium ultracentrifugation, vapor-pressure osmometry, viscometry, and gel-permeation chromatography. It is found that the molecular chain of cationically prepared polymer is somewhat branched owing to structural isomerism during polymerization. Isoamyl acetate is found to be a theta solvent for stereo-block as well as for atactic and syndiotactic polymers; the theta temperature is determined as the temperature at which the light-scattering second virial coefficient A2 vanishes. A close correlation is found between the theta temperature and stereoisomerism. The absorbances of the 1154 and 974 cm-1 bands in the infrared spectra decrease with decreasing molecular weight; in addition to the mere existence of alternating CH2 and CH(CH3) groups in the polymer chain, rather long sequences of this type are required for the appearance of these bands. Changes in the absorption band at 997 cm-1 show that chains consisting of over ten isotactically connected monomer units can assume a helical conformation. From the high-resolution NMR spectra of different polypropylenes, including isotactic polymers of low molecular weight, it is found that in estimating the microstructure, account must be taken of the effects of stereoisomerism within tetrads of monomer units on the apparent widths of the methylene proton resonances. If substantial concentrations of several of the possible types of tetrads are present (i.e., if the tactic sequence lengths are quite short), then it is difficult to determine the relative amounts of tactic dyads accurately from the 100 Mcps methylene proton resonances.

    Notes: The phenomenon of double melting, as manifested by two characteristic endotherms in the melting region on a differential thermal analysis (DTA) scan, has been studied in nylon 66 and polystyrene as a function of sample treatment by annealing or drawing. A variety of techniques were used in these studies including DTA, x-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, and mechanical testing. It is shown that the two endotherms are not caused by a bimodal crystal size distribution, by recrystallization, by orientation changes, or by phase changes. It is proposed that one endotherm is caused by the melting of foldedchain crystals, while the other is due to the melting of less perfect bundle crystals. This view is well supported by the results, especially by the DTA measurements made at different heating rates. Published data on the thermal behavior of annealed and drawn poly(ethylene terephthalate) and on polyethylene crystallized at various pressures may also be explained on this basis if it is allowed that in polyethylene the chains may be more extended.

    Notes: The yield-stress behavior of two glassy polymers is studied through the glass transition region over a wide range of strain rates. For temperatures below the glass transition temperature, the yield stress behavior could be described as a non-Newtonian flow in agreement with Eyring's theory, if one excepts a narrow range relating to the slowest strain rates. For temperatures above Tg, the yield-stress behavior is still nonlinear but fits the relations based on the concept of free volume.

    Notes: A “dual sorption” model has been proposed by Michaels, Vieth, et al. to explain extensive equilibrium sorption data for several gases in some glassy polymers. To explain data on sorption kinetics, it was further postulated that one of the sorption modes immobilizes the gas molecules. Stated mathematically, this model leads to a modified form of Fick's second law. Both normal and desorption time lags for diffusion have been computed here for this model of diffusion in glassy polymers. The computed time lags are shown to be dependent on the boundary concentrations used in permeation. Experimental measurement of these time lags would be a sensitive and critical test to ascertain the validity of this theory.

    Notes: Poly(methyl methacrylate) tensile bars were prepared containing nearly spherical polytetrafluoroethylene particles in concentrations from one to a thousand particles per gauge length of the bars. Particle diameters varied from 0.0035 to 0.018 in. Exhaustive tensile tests were performed at sufficiently high strain rate to assure brittle fracture and the results analyzed statistically by the theory of extreme values as proposed by Epstein. The results suggested that the polytetrafluoroethylene particles themselves did not act as flaws, but that they intensified the stress field on natural flaws which acted as the origin of fracture. Assuming a Laplace distribution as the underlying distribution of tensile strength (not to be confused with observed distribution of tensile strengths) gave predicted fracture statistics in good agreement with experiment.

    Notes: The distribution of molecular weights in realistic free-radical polymerizations with branching was analyzed theoretically. Series solutions were obtained for the fraction of molecules with r repeating units and the number of branch points contained in molecules with r repeating units. Branching by transfer processes was found to increase the proportion of both high and low molecular weight components in the system. The apportioning of branch points among r-mer molecules was shown to be somewhat narrower than a Poisson distribution. The major difference between the calculated distributions and previous model distributions for branched systems was the absence of discontinuities in the moments at all levels of branching.

    Notes: The problem of the structural theory of macromolecular networks is formulated and discussed in general terms. The conditions required for a system to become a homogeneous macromolecular network are defined and discussed. Networks are divided according to the nature of their junctions into three classes: energetic (with chemical or quasi-chemical crosslinks), topological (with entangled chains), and contact (with frictional interactions). The main features of these three classes are discussed. A distribution density function ψ describing the configurations of macromolecules in network systems is introduced. The phase space of variables is 4(N + 1)-dimensional and includes the coordinates of (N + 1) vectors hi joining the adjacent network junctions and (N + 1) contour lengths li of the network chains. The system of simultaneous equations required for the determination of the function ψ includes the equation of continuity, kinematic equations for the deformation velocity of the individual junctions, the force balance equation needed for the determination of sliding rates li, kinetic equations for the processes of junction breakage and reformation, and the equilibrium distribution of network junctions defining the initial conditions for the distribution function ψ.

    Notes: Extended-chain crystals of high molecular weight polymethylene, a polyethylene with a broad molecular weight distribution, and three fractions of polyethylene were grown from the melt under elevated pressure. Comparison of the crystal size distribution in the molecular chain direction (measured on fracture surfaces by electron microscopy) with the molecular weight distribution (measured by gel-permeation chromatography) gave the following results. Up to molecular weight 10,000 all samples showed eutectic separation into fully extended chain crystals of narrow molecular weight distribution. Above molecular weight 10,000 mixed crystals were formed. Under the chosen crystallization conditions larger chain extension was achieved with higher molecular weights. However, an increase in molecular weight by a factor of 1000 led only to a tenfold increase in chain extension. These facts are discussed in the light of a proposed mechanism of crystal growth.

    Notes: The Kuhn-Grün theory for the birefringence and dichroism of rubbery polymers is extended to the case of copolymers consisting of two or more statistical segments of differing lengths. It is shown that the previous equations are applicable provided that the anisotropy of polarizabilities and absorptions are replaced with suitable averages in which the segment anisotropies are weighted by the squares of their segment lengths. This indicates that the stress-optical coefficient will not generally vary linearly with composition. The orientation measured from the dichroism of bands arising from different segments will be different.

    Notes: A method of determining the distribution of branching in polydisperse polymer samples is proposed. This method uses data from concurrent gel permeation chromatography and sedimentation-velocity experiments. Tedious fractionation, which must precede other methods of determining long-chain branching, is eliminated. An example of use of the method on the data of a sample of styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer is given.

    Notes: This paper reports an electron microscopy study of the morphology of crystals of poly(vinylidene chloride) prepared under a variety of conditions and of the carbons resulting from the pyrolysis of the polymer. The structure of the polymer carbons prepared under conditions such that the polymer does not pass through a plastic phase is closely related to the morphology of the original polymer. The shapes of the crystals and of the crystal pseudomorphs are indexed in terms of the unit cell proposed by Narita and Okuda. Morphological studies of this kind are important in discussing the graphitizability of polymer carbons, their mechanical properties and pore structure, and the kinetics of the dehydrochlorination reaction.

    Notes: Heterogeneous nucleation and crystallization of FEP Teflon and nylon 6 melts against high energy surfaces (i.e., gold) produce an interfacial region, in these polymers, of high mechanical strength. Dissolution of the metal substrate rather than removal by mechanical means results in a polymer surface which is amenable to conventional structural adhesive bonding. Nucleation and crystallization of the polymer melts in contact with phases of low surface energy (e.g., vapor) result in the generation of weak boundary layers.

    Notes: Triplet → singlet energy transfer in nylon 66 film (donor) dyed with proflavine (acceptor) is demonstrated by a decrease of the nylon phosphoresence lifetime and an increase in the proflavine delayed fluorescence/nylon phosphoresence ratio with increasing proflavine concentration. Although the observed donor phosphorescence decay is apparently exponential, the transfer is probably via a long-range dipole-dipole (Förster) interaction, rather than by triplet exciton migration. Arguments are advanced to support this view. Proflavine delayed fluorescence produced by a direct excitation process is also observed. The decay time for this process is roughly an order of magnitude less than that for the sensitized process. All emission intensities are shown to vary linearly with exciting light intensity. Finally, temperature dependence of proflavine delayed fluorescence under different excitation conditions is shown. The efficiency of direct excitation process increases markedly near -50°C as the temperature is increased; the sensitized delayed fluorescence intensity follows that of the nylon phosphorescence with increasing temperature, as expected.

    Notes: The glass transition temperatures Tg of several fluorine-containing polymers were determined by use of the differential scanning calorimeter. Values between -3 and 230°C were obtained. In polymers of α-olefins, Tg increases with the fluorine content of the backbone and the length of the n-perfluoroalkyl branch. In styrene polymers Tg also is higher if the backbone contains fluorine but nearly the same Tg's are found for polymers with phenyl and pentafluorophenyl groups. Saturated polymers of perfluoro-α,ω-dienes have lower Tg's than polyperfluoro-α-olefins. The Tg's of chloroperfluoropolymers are higher than those of perfluoropolymers. Polyperfluoropentadiene-1,3 has the lowest Tg of the polymers examined. Polyperfluoropentadiene-1,3 forms by 1,4-addition.

    Notes: Drawn poly(ethylene terephthalate), PET, yarns have been heated for 1 min in silicone oil. The resulting samples were studied by x-ray diffraction and mechanical properties were measured. The results suggest that drawn PET consists of highly extended molecules essentially parallel to one another, with few folds present. On heating, chain folding occurs. This model is very similar to that proposed by Dismore and Statton for drawn nylon 66 yarns.

    Notes: A theoretical discussion is presented on the mechanisms by which an isolated pulsating air bubble in a viscoelastic solid dissipates its energy. The analysis is limited to the situation where the amplitude of motion is assumed to be sufficiently small that the stress strain relations may be described by linear equations with convected differentiation replaced by ∂/∂t. The theoretical thermal, radiation, and viscous damping constants are calculated for resonant air bubbles in unvulcanized natural rubber; however, the results are typical of elastomers in general.

    Notes: The birefringence of several biaxially oriented polypropylene films swollen with a number of fluids has been measured and found to exhibit a minimum when plotted against the fluid refractive index, as predicted by the theory of Wiener. However, a discrepancy in the form birefringence behavior is observed when samples of different degrees of crystallinity but the same total birefringence are compared. These results are interpreted in terms of Bullough's theory and suggest that this discrepancy arises because of different morphologies. A refractometric technique was employed that makes possible the simultaneous determination of birefringence and the volume fraction of fluid.

    Notes: The morphology of polyethylenes formed upon polymerization by γ-radiation below the melting point in various reaction media was investigated by using electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. When the polymerization was carried out in bulk at 30°C and in methanol, the polymer was fibrillar, and a small-angle x-ray scattering curve of the polymer did not indicate the existence of a long period. This suggests that the chains in the crystals have an extended conformation. When the polymerization was carried out in the presence of xylene at 30°C, platelet crystals having a folded structure were obtained. It was thus shown that the morphology of the growing polymer crystals is very much affected by the solubility of the polymer in the reaction medium. The effect of stirring during polymerization on the crystalline morphology was also studied.

    Notes: The intrinsic viscosity of a polymer in a solvent mixture is related to the excess free energy of the solvents. Intrinsic viscosities at different temperatures are obtained for poly-2-vinylpyridine-chloroform-ethyl alcohol, poly(methyl methacrylate)-chloroform-ethyl alcohol, polystyrene-cyclohexane-benzene, polystyrene-dioxane-chloroform, and polystyrene-cyclohexane-ethanol. Qualitative, but not quantitative, agreement is found between theory and experiment.

    Notes: The circumstances of the formation of kink bands have been investigated with a newly designed shearing device and light and electron microscopes. Kink bands having sharp edges and reflection symmetry about the edges were formed and studied in the two crystalline polymers, high-density polyethylene and isotactic polypropylene, but could not be formed in the two glassy polymers, poly(4,4′-dioxydiphenyl-2,2-propane carbonate) and poly(2,6-dimethylphenylene oxide). The characteristics of the oriented polymer that promote kink bands seem to be easy slip along the orientation axis, and resistance of the oriented fibrils to length changes. Kink bands were found to initiate at sites of shear stress concentration, where the fibrils are first deformed into an S-shaped curve, that then tightens and finally collapses into kinks.

    Notes: Column chromatographic fractionation of polystyrene was carried out with the methyl-ethyl ketone-methanol system, and effects of various experimental conditions on the fractionation efficiency were studied. For samples with molecular weights below about 6 × 105, neither the temperature gradient (0.7°C/cm), nor the flow rate of solvent (30-270 ml/hr) seriously influences the fractionation efficiency. The effect of temperature gradient becomes apparent only in the high molecular weight region and only if the gradient of the solvent composition is too steep. High flow rates (ca. 125 ml/hr) clearly affect the fractionation efficiency for a high molecular weight sample (Mw = 5.46 × 105). Precipitation chromatography for the fractionation system was calculated from the phase equilibrium data according to the mass transport equation proposed by Schulz et al. The theoretical analysis gives support to the observed dependence of the temperature effect on molecular weight. Comparison of the observed and theoretical relations between elution volume and molecular weight of the fraction, on the other hand, indicates that the process of fractionation is simply elution of polymer off the support without reprecipitation. Certain conditions of polymer deposition on the support are required for optimal results.

    Notes: Thermal analysis has been carried out on drawn nylon 6 filaments annealed at various temperatures between 150 and 210°C and then methoxymethylated to various degrees. It is shown that the melting point inherent to the morphology of drawn nylon 6 can be obtained from samples in which the reorganization of defect crystallites in the course of thermal analysis is prevented by a proper degree of methoxymethylation of amorphous regions. The melting point thus obtained is in linear relation with the reciprocal crystallite size in the direction of fiber axis which has been obtained from small-angle x-ray data and crystallinity. The extrapolation and the slope of this linear relation give the equilibrium melting point of nylon 6 as 245°C and an end-surface free energy of 42 erg/cm2. The results seem to provide strong support for the presence of chain-fold surfaces in the drawn and annealed polymers.

    Notes: The temperature dependence of relative modulus observed in filled thermoset, thermoplastic, and polyelectrolyte salt matrices is explained on the basis of induced stresses produced by the differences in the thermal expansion coefficients of the constituent materials. The analysis is based on the assumption that the modulus of the matrix in a filled polymer is less than that of the unfilled polymer. The temperature dependence of relative modulus is expressed as a function of the difference in thermal expansion coefficients, the volume fraction, the relative modulus in the unstressed state, and mechanical properties of the phases. Agreement is good between the analysis and experimental results for three systems: epoxy and glass, polyethylene and wollastonite, and a polyelectrolyte salt with mica and asbestos.

    Notes: Infrared spectroscopic studies have been made of mixed crystals of linear polyethylene and perdeuteropolyethylene. On the basis of normal vibration analyses by Tasumi and Krimm it had been shown that the study of crystal splittings of internal chain modes in such mixed crystals could provide information on the geometry of chain folding. The present results, which include a study of n-paraffin (C36) mixed crystals, confirm these predictions. They show that (110) folding predominates in dilute solution grown crystals, and that this is transformed to (200) folding in melt-crystallized polymer. Folding with adjacent re-entry is favored, a random re-entry model being clearly eliminated.

    Notes: Data existing in the literature for the spherulitic growth rate of molecular weight fractions of linear polyethylene, poly-(tetramethyl-p-silphenylene)siloxane, and trans-1,4-polyisoprene have been analyzed according to nucleation theory on taking into account the influence of chain length on the free energy of fusion. All three polymers display very similar behavior in that the interfacial free energy reaches an asymptotic value at high molecular weights, decreases as the molecular weight is lowered, and appears to also reach an asymptotic value at low molecular weights. Although the changes in the interfacial energy with molecular weight are quite distinct, the relative change is much less than has been previously reported when a molecular crystal analysis is used. The same general behavior observed points out the dominating influence of the chain-like character of the molecules in governing the growth rate.

    Notes: Extensive studies of the kinetics of spherulitic crystallization have been made on fractionated samples of TMPS. An analysis of these results reveals that a two-dimensional growth rate mechanism is a more likely mode of growth than a three-dimensional one. This conclusion is substantiated by experimental evidence from optical microscopy and light scattering from within spherulites. The crystallite end surface energy is found to increase as the molecular weight is raised.

    Notes: A modus operandi is developed for determining the molecular structure of hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC), and characterizing, in quantitative terms, the morphological changes occurring when a water-cast film of the polymer is deformed. This involves the application of the following eleven different physical measurements: wide-angle x-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, density, melt rheometry, infrared spectroscopy, refractive index, birefringence, sonic modulus, small-angle light scattering, optical and electron microscopy. In addition, a computer was utilized as a mathematical diffractometer. Morphologically, water-cast HPC was observed to have structure at all levels, from the molecular to the supermolecular. The HPC molecule has a backbone of anhydroglucose units twisted into an irregular 31 helix. Intramolecular hydrogen bonding of the poly(propylene oxide) side chains leads to a stiff, rodlike molecule. The molecules are packed into microfibrillar crystallites 470 Å long and 34 Å in diameter. The microfibrils in turn, associate into supermolecular rodlike structures. The structural rearrangements that occur at each morphological level during deformation of HPC film are quantitatively examined and described.

    Notes: Mechanical relaxation has been studied at 0.67 cps in linear polyethylene (LPE) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) between -190 and -20°C. Specimens were prepared by use of various thermal treatments to produce in LPE a range of crystalline fractions from 0.690 to 0.825 and in PTFE from 0.615 to 0.870. An empirical theory is proposed relating the modulus of the crystalline-amorphous composite solid to the moduli and the volume fractions of the two phases. The empirical theory is shown to be in accord with the bounds of Hill and of Hashin and Shtrikman. The theory is used to determine the magnitudes of the crystalline and amorphous components of the low temperature relaxations in LPE and PTFE from measurements of logarithmic decrement and shear modulus. In PTFE the γ relaxation occurs in the amorphous fraction alone. In LPE the γ relaxation is a composite one, formed from the superposition of a small crystal relaxation and a large amorphous relaxation. For the crystal relaxation in LPE the ratio of relaxed to unrelaxed modulus equals 0.78; for the amorphous relaxation, the ratio equals 0.23. In a specimen of LPE with crystal fraction 0.69 the crystal contribution to the relaxation is 25% of the total. The magnitude of the unrelaxed modulus of the crystal fraction of LPE (modulus of polycrystalline LPE at -190°C) is in reasonable agreement with theoretical calculations of Odajima and Maeda.

    Notes: Shear viscosity and dielectric dispersion measurements have been made on a series of concentrated solutions of poly-p-chlorostyrene in toluene, chlorobenzene, and diethylbenzene, as well as on the pure polymer. It is found that the product ηνm/T is nearly temperature-independent in the present range of measurement (30 ≤ νm ≤ 30 ≤ 104 Hz), where νm is the frequency at which the dielectric loss maximum occurs. For the pure polymer, ηνm (200/T) is 1011.5 poise/sec. This leads to a segmental jump distance of 5 Å. Although the results in this range correspond quite well to the concept of a segmental friction constant determined by the matrix viscosity, deviations appear as the apparent energy of activation for viscous flow decreases below 13 kcal/mole. There is reason to believe that these deviations reflect the increasing importance of bond rotation barriers at low matrix viscosity. It is speculated that the damped torsional oscillator interpretation of f0 proposed by Tobolsky will become valid in systems still more fluid.

    Notes: A new light-scattering experiment which allows a direct determination of the conformation of macromolecules deformed in flow is described. Light-scattering relationships based on the interference function are developed, and results of an experimental study are detailed. The deformed conformation of high molecular weight polyisobutylene was determined in a Couette-type shear field. Decalin was the solvent. Variables investigated were the shear rate (0 to 600 sec-1), the polymer molecular weight (1.0 × 107 to 1.6 × 107), and the polymer concentration (2.0 × 10-4 to 8.0 × 10-4 g/cc). Conformation variables determined were the orientation of the molecule in the shear field and its maximum and minimum extension ratios in the plane defined by the direction of flow and the direction of the shear rate. The deformation of the macromolecule was found to be markedly discrepant when compared to the dynamic macromolecular models which assume complete coil flexibility, and more closely in agreement with the recent theories of Cerf, developed for nonfree-draining coils which exhibit a finite internal viscosity.

    Notes: The mechanical and dielectric low temperature absorptions of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and several modified PVC's have been studied over the temperature range from -60 to +60°C. with some tests extending to -150°C. and others to +170°C. The results indicate that the low-temperature absorption near -50°C (β2 absorption) decreases in intensity with chlorination, while the absorption at a higher temperature near 0°C (β1 absorption) decreases in intensity with hydrogenation. The apparent activation energies of the β1 and β2 absorptions were calculated to be 16 kcal/mole and 10.7 kcal/mole, respectively. Besides, the β2 absorption markedly decreases in intensity with addition of plasticizer, while the intensity of β1 absorption is not much affected by increasing plasticizer content. From these results, the β1 and β2 processes are concluded to be the results of molecular motion in crystalline and amorphous region in PVC, respectively. For samples of reduced Cl content, another low-temperature absorption was located near -120°C (γ absorption) and attributed to the presence of short sequences of ethylene units. It has also been observed that the temperature location of the high temperature absorption near 100°C (α absorption) shifts linearly to higher temperature with increasing chlorine content and to lower temperature with increasing hydrogen content.

    Notes: Six homologs of the cellulose triester series were found to exhibit, in general, three second-order transitions as determined dilatometrically. A parallel study of torsional modulus versus temperature revealed one glass-rubber transition, which allowed molecular assignment of one of the above. The dependence of the remaining two transition temperatures on length of the ester group permits some speculation with regard to their origin. The glass-rubber and secondary transitions exhibit an inversion for cellulose trivalerate and higher homologs, the two secondary transitions occurring at temperatures higher than the glass-rubber transition. A possible explanation for this anomaly in terms of side-chain crystallization is discussed.

    Notes: The melting transitions of both crystalline forms of trans-1,4-polyisoprene, as detected by differential thermal analysis, have been identified by attendant studies with optical microscopy and x-ray diffraction. The lower-melting (LM) form melts initially at a temperature which depends upon the crystallization temperature but which, under our experimental conditions, is between 45 and 53°C. If recrystallization is allowed to occur, the apparent final melting point, which depends upon the recrystallization temperature, is about 58°C. The initial melting point of the higher-melting (HM) form, also crystallization temperature-dependent, is upwards of 57°C. Under the most easily accessible experimental conditions, it may be obscured by the final melting of the LM-form. The apparent final melting point of the HM form is approximately 66°C. Conversion of the LM form into the HM form occurs only by fusion and crystallization. No evidence of a solid-solid transition was found. The rate of conversion is governed principally by the rate of nucleation at the conversion temperature. If fusion of the LM form is incomplete, recrystallization of the LM form takes place instead of conversion to the HM form.

    Notes: Creep compliance data, J(t), at 35°C for poly(β-hydroxyethyl monomethacrylate), crosslinked by ethylene glycol dimethacrylate in a range of concentration C from 0.0855 to 2.053 × 10-4 mole/cm3 and swollen to various degrees in diluents, were examined for time-concentration superposition. From the dependence of time scale shift factors on v2, the volume fraction of polymer, free volume parameters were calculated for two samples with C = 0.0855 × 10-4 and 0.136 × 10-4 mole/cm3, swollen in the range of v2 from 0.134 to 0.591. Special attention was given to the magnitude of the shift factor on the log J(t) axis and its dependence on concentration, which was found to depend substantially on the crosslinking and the swelling degrees of the samples. This shift was approximately log v2 for lightly crosslinked samples, swollen to a small degree, measured in the neighborhood of the main transition. For higher degrees of crosslinking and/or swelling, the shift was much less and for the most highly crosslinked networks swollen to equilibrium it was even negative. The correction appears to be very sensitive to the strain of the effective chains and to the location on the time scale with respect to the transition and rubberlike zones of viscoelasic behavior. It was found that the parameters of the WLF equation calculated in our previous study from the time-temperature superposition of the creep curves in the rubber-glass transition are valid also for the rubberlike region.

    Notes: A systematic study of factors affecting the GPC separation showed that peak spreading with increasing flow rate was much less than predicted from the Van Deemter equation. Viscous fingering decreased and peak symmetry improved at increased flow rates. As a result, fast GPC analysis was shown to be readily attainable through optimization of operating parameters.

    Notes: The effect of birefringence on light scattering is considered, using classical theory. It is shown that in conjunction with polarized light scattering, the use of birefringence can aid in the reduction of experimental errors; also how new checks on theory can be made. The treatment is applied to scattering from simple gaseous molecules and thin polymeric films.

    Notes: The intrachain and interchain vibrations below 900 cm-1 of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) have been studied by slow neutron inelastic scattering. A composite motion observed at +25°C for the methyl groups corresponds to nearly free rotation about the threefold axis of symmetry together with a large-amplitude rotation of the entire methyl group. At -123°C, rotation about the threefold axis evolves to a torsional oscillation. The large-amplitude rotation evolves to the skeletal vibrations of a helical conformation. Vestiges of the cooperative skeletal vibrations of the conformation at -123°C persist into the 25°C spectrum. The results indicate the presence of interrupted helical conformations at 25°C, which result from thermal disordering of the low temperature helices. The effects of crosslinking, low molecular-weight oils, and silica filler on the freedom of the methyl group motions and on skeletal vibrations have been determined. The effects of different crosslinking agents and different relative amounts of filler and oil on both the macroscopic physical properties and the observed molecular motions of PDMS can also be interpreted in terms of an interrupted helix.

    Notes: Experiments in which an oscillatory shear flow is superimposed on a steady state shear flow were performed on polyethylene melts by the use of a cone and plate type rheogoniometer. The phase difference between oscillatory shear stress and shear strain increases in all cases and for all frequencies with the increase of the superimposed shear rate. Between ω0, the frequency at which the phase difference is π/2 and the steady shear rate \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \dot \gamma $\end{document}, as found by Booij for polymer solution, the relation ω0 = 1/2 \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \dot \gamma$\end{document}. holds also for polyethylene melts. The significance of this relation is discussed briefly from the viewpoint that the entanglement density decreases with the increase of the imposed shear rate.

    Notes: The well known procedure of determining the degree of crystallinity by means of measuring the density presupposes the knowledge of both the densities ρc and ρa of the crystalline and of the noncrystalline regions. By combination of small-angle and wide-angle x-ray scattering and of density measurements it can be shown that this method is not justified in the case of drawn polyethylene if the values of ρc and ρa known from isotropic material are used. Both ρc and ρa depend considerably on annealing and drawing conditions. In addition the effective density ρc* of the more densely packed phase in a two-phase structure is much lower than the value ρc calculated from the positions of the x-ray reflections due to a large number of lattice defects. This conclusion is based on the results of three independent sets of experiments: determination of the mean-square fluctuation of density 〈η2〉 by means of x-ray small-angle scattering; x-ray wide-angle measurements of the positions of the crystal reflections and of the halo arising from the noncrystalline regions; and comparison of densities and long periods of samples treated at various annealing temperatures.

    Notes: Isothermal and nonisothermal spherulitic crystallization in even-odd and poly(ω-aminocarboxylic acids) has been studied for a range of fusion conditions and solidification temperatures. The variety of spherulites so formed are classified mainly by optical microscopy. It is found that polyamides with similar types of repeat units generally exhibit similar morphological features under corresponding crystallization conditions. The basic patterns are illustrated in the text. Changes in spherulitic birefringence with temperature are also discussed. In some cases, at temperatures not far below the polymer melting point, platelet-like crystalline aggregates are formed in thin film preparations. These platelets exhibit properties characteristic of single crystals.

    Notes: The peak separation in gel-permeation chromatography (GPC) is attributed to the contributions of the steric exclusion and the lateral diffusion processes. The advantage of using the distribution coefficient KGPC of the solute molecule in interpreting the GPC separation mechanism is assessed. The physical significance of KGPC and its relation to measurable GPC parameters are examined in detail. A simple mixing experiment for determining the exclusion effect is described. The results of this experiment, as well as those of the flow rate study, show that the exclusion effect plays the primary role in GPC peak separation. For a column packed with Bio-Rad porous glass of 200 Å designation, the diffusion effect does not contribute significantly to peak separation. However, for the case of a Waters Associates column packed with polystyrene gel of 104 Å designation, both the exclusion and the diffusion effects are shown to be important. A diffusion theory which includes the concept of a restricted diffusion coefficient is proposed to interpret the diffusion effect observed in the polystyrene gel column. The results of the theoretical calculation are found to agree with the observed flow rate dependence of the calibration curve.

    Notes: Thermogravimetric analyses (TGA) of catalyst-free polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) have been carried out in controlled atmospheres and a kinetic analysis of the results has enabled the various decomposition processes to be separated and identified. The calculated activation energy for thermal depolymerization is 42 ± 3 kcal/mole, while thermo-oxidation has an apparent activation energy of 30 ± 2 kcal/mole. Quantitative analyses of the major degradation products and molecular weight distribution studies of the residues from degradation studies under isothermal conditions have shown that in vacuo, PDMS fractions depolymerize to cyclic dimethylsiloxanes and low molecular weight linear residues by a randomly initiated mechanism which, it is postulated, involves the formation of an intramolecular, cyclic, four-centered transition state followed by siloxane bond rearrangement. This mechanism is a basic property of linear PDMS fractions and is independent of molecular weight. Molecular weight distribution (MWD) changes observed from further isothermal investigations on hydroxy endblocked PDMS fractions, have shown the presence of a chain-lengthening process in vacuo below the depolymerization temperature. This process, with an apparent activation energy of 8.6 ± 1 kcal/mole, is attributed to the intermolecular condensation of terminal hydroxyl groups.
