    Notes: Abstract Working at a power density above optical breakdown threshold, irradiation effects upon the angle of the anterior chamber of the Macaca speciosa monkey by a Nd glass Q-switched laser, have been analysed with scanning electron microscopy. Two different damage effects can be identified: openings of Schlemm's canal and the creation of a cyclodialysis, that is opening the uveoscleral outflow routes; the latter may be a more effective one than the former. Also a third mechanism, namely a structural alteration of the trabecular meshwork, at the molecular level by laser action, has been inferred. The physical effects leading to optically induced mechanical damage are discussed. Applicability of such effects upon the morphological findings described here, is limited and to a greater part speculative. A better definition of the physical parameters, required for optimal therapeutical damage effects in the treatment of the wide angle glaucoma may be obtained by trial and error methods, which are guided by the results of electron microscopical analyses of samples obtained from in vivo and in vitro experiments.

    Notes: A new calculation of the vibrational frequencies of poly(ethy1 ethylene) based on the actual molecular geometry was performed. The calculation takes into account new experimental data such far-infrared spectra and Raman spectra of the stretched polymer, infrared spectra of poly(ethyl ethylene)-(2,2;d2) (P-4-1-d2) and poly(ethyl ethylene)-(3,3,4,4;d4) (P-4-1-d4), and Raman spectra of poly(ethyl ethylene)-(1,3,3;d3) and poly(ethyl ethylene)-(3,3,4,4;d4). Refinement produced a set of force constants; it is also applicable to poly(propyl ethylene).

    Notes: The nucleation and growth of the crystalline core in the row structures of isotactic polystyrene were investigated by transmission electron microscopy. The number of core crystals, nucleated at a specific temperature, depends on the external strain. Their length was found to increase with time if the sample is kept at the straining temperature. If a strained sample is cooled to room temperature and subsequently reheated, no further growth of the core crystals is observed. Obstacles in the path of growth were circumvented by local changes of the growing direction. Melt-soluble noncrystallizable molecules are rejected by the growing core into the surrounding melt. The observations suggest a growth mechanism of the cores based on the successive self-induced alignment of molecules at the tip of the growing cores.

    Notes: Carbon-13 spin-lattice relaxation times (T1), nuclear Overhauser enhancements (NOE), and resonance linewidths (Δp) have been measured for a series of terephthalic acid polyesters containing ethyl, butyl, hexyl, and isopropyl groups between neighboring terephthalate units. The relaxation parameters of all carbons in the terephthalate groups are independent of the length of the separating alkyl chain. Reduced NOE's are seen for all carbons. The data are interpreted in terms of a log X2distribution of correlation times of constant width, but variable average mobility. The average mobility in the alkyl chain increases with increasing distance from the terephthalate group in a given polymer. For a given position in the chain. mobility increases with increasing chain length. This behavior is consistent with the presence of independently reorienting, highly solvated terephthalate groups.

    Notes: Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) was extruded from a capillary rheometer at temperatures between the first-order transition at 30°C and the melting point. Both PTFE at 50-300°C and various smectic states of certain low-molecular benzylidene anilines obey the following relationship between the shear stress τ and the apparent shear rate $ \dot \gamma :{\rm }\tau = K\dot \gamma ^{{1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 4}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 4}} $. The apparent viscosities for the two classes of substances are similar even though their molecular weights differ by a factor of about 104. Both have characteristic shear planes which are parallel to the polymer chains in PTFE and normal to the long axes of the benzylidene aniline molecules. The melting process in virgin PTFE begins near 300°C. Above this temperature, the shear stress at constant shear rate increases and the rheological exponent rises from 0.25 toward 0.5 at the final melting point.

    Notes: Recent experiments have supported the view that polyethylene (PE) single crystals kept in suspension, in a variety of liquids, have different physical properties compared with the same crystals after drying. The present work was undertaken in an attempt to directly measure one of the basic properties of crystals in suspension, namely their percent crystallinity (X). Differential scanning calorimetry was chosen as the primary tool for this investigation. A method has been developed to determine the weight of PE in a suspension of crystals in a nonsolvent. Thus, a determination of X can be made. For suspension crystals, X was found to be at least 88.5%, some 6% larger than that for the corresponding dried or freeze-dried material. Implications with regard to the fold-surface structure are discussed. Differences in degree of crystallinity as a function of drying procedure have also been observed.

    Notes: The polymerization of methyl methacrylate photosensitized by several alkyl ketones has been investigated. It was found that alkyl ketones can induce the free radical polymerization of the monomer with an efficiency that increases when the triplet lifetime decreases. For ketones of similar triplet lifetime those decomposing predominantly by a type I photocleavage show greater initiation efficiencies than those that react by a type II mechanism. The results obtained show that quenching of the excited ketones by the monomer does not induce polymerization. For ketones bearing γ-hydrogens the initiation is due to the 1,4-biradical produced by intramolecular hydrogen abstraction.

    Notes: The effect of γ irradiation on a series of vinyl polymers, which included polymethacrylonitrile, poly(α-chloroacrylonitrile), poly(dimethyl itaconate), poly(acrylic anhydride), and poly(methacrylic anhydride), was studied as part of a program to develop improved positive lithographic resists. Radiation-induced degradation was observed for polymethacrylonitrile, poly(α-chloroacrylonitrile), and poly(methacrylic anhydride). Molecular weight degradation as a function of dose was monitored by membrane osmometry or GPC techniques. For γ-irradiated poly(dimethyl itaconate) and poly(acrylic anhydride) crosslinking was found to predominate over chain scission. [G(s)-G(x)] values, calculated from molecular weight inverse versus dose curves, indicate that both nitrile polymers degraded more efficiently than a poly(methyl methacrylate) reference standard on the basis of Mn changes. The radiation behavior of the first three polymers confirms earlier findings than vinyl polymers with quaternary carbons predominantly degrade when subjected to ionizing radiation.

    Notes: The triethylamine-initiated polymerization of glycine-NCA [N-carboxylic acid anhydrides (oxazolidine-2,5-diones)], L-alanine-NCA, and sarcosine-NCA, as well as the pyridine-initiated polymerization of sarcosine-NCA, were carried out in the presence of potential cocatalysts. The 11 electrophilic reagents tested in this work can be divided into two classes: N-acyllactams and similar compounds, which are less reactive than the monomers and have no influence on the polymerization; and isocyanates and N-acyl-NCAs or -NTAs [N-thiocarboxylic acid anhydrides (thiazolldine-2,5-diones)], which are more electrophilic than the monomers and behave as cocatalysts in the case of glycine-NCA and alanine-NCA, since their base-initiated polymerization proceeds via the attack of NCA anions on the electrophilic N-acyl NCA chain and (“activated monomer mechanism”). In the case of sarcosine-NCA, however, the propagation involves a nucleophilic chain end (“carbamate mechanism”) and the strong electrophilic reagents behave as inhibitors.

    Notes: Reaction of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) with superoxide anion was carried out in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at 40°C in a nitrogen atmosphere. Remarkable changes in infrared (IR) spectra of the samples treated with superoxide anion were observed in the following regions: ca. 3300, 1680, 1620, and 765 cm-1, which suggested the formation of hydroxyl groups, α,β-unsaturated ketone groups, and ethylenic structures. Ultraviolet-visible spectra also showed the formation of polyene structures. The content of chlorine in the polymer decreased and that of oxygen increased with reaction time. The reaction mechanism was discussed on the basis of these results.

    Notes: To determine the content of trans-gauche-trans (TGT) conformation in poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) 1H-NMR spectra were measured with tris(1,1,1,2,2,3,3-heptafluoro-7,7-dimethyl-1,4,6-octanedinato)europium(III) [Eu(fod)3] as a shift reagent. As a result the peaks assigned to the ethylene protons in the polymeric segments separated from those assigned to four ethylene protons as the “near-end” groups, and the singlet peak in the former at the lowest field was assigned to the TGT conformation of the COCCOC sequence. It was confirmed that the conformation of the polymeric segments in PEG complexed with Eu(fod)3 remained unchanged with benzene-d6 content as the solvent. The concentration of TGT conformation increased with the number-average molecular weight (Mn): it increased rapidly until about 70% at Mn = 1500.

    Notes: γ-Ray-induced polymerizations of ferrocenylmethyl methacrylate (FMMA) in crystalline and amorphous states were investigated with kinetical and ESR methods. In the crystalline state the polymerization of FMMA proceeded slowly and gave low-molecular-weight polymers, whereas in the amorphous state it proceeded rapidly and gave polymers of much higher molecular weight. Molecular weight distributions of these polymers were binodal. The temperature dependence and the dose-rate dependence of the polymerization rates were different between the two states. Wide-line nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of the amorphous monomer suggested that the polymerization proceeded in a supercooled state. Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of γ-irradiated FMMA and 1,1′-ferrocenyl-di(methyl methacrylate) showed that ferrocene radicals and methacrylic radicals were formed simultaneously at low temperature; with increasing temperature the former radicals disappeared, whereas the latter changed into growing chain radicals. The yields of radicals were relatively low; this means that ferrocene groups in the monomers behave as a radiation energy absorber.

    Notes: It was found that carbon disulfide copolymerizes with N-(β-cyanoethyl) ethylenimine by using water as a catalyst. The copolymerization was conducted in detail by using water as a catalyst in the temperature range between 0 and 50°C with various initial concentrations of carbon disulfide and N-(β-cyanoethyl)ethylenimine in the absence of solvent. The copolymer obtained was always composed of the two monomers: 1:1 ratio, independent of the initial concentration of the monomers. The copolymer was white solid material soluble in dimethyl sulfoxide, insoluble in other usual organic solvents and decomposed at 155°C. Spectroscopic analysis of the copolymer combined with the results of elemental analysis indicates that the copolymer had the following structure:

    Notes: Alternating polyampholytes (MA-VA) containing two acidic groups and one basic group were prepared by the copolymerization of maleic anhydride (M1) and N-vinylsuccinimide (M2) at 60°C with AIBN as the initiator, followed by acid hydrolysis with 1N hydrochloric acid at 140°C for 24 hr. The monomer reactivity ratios r1 and r2 are 0.025 and 0.06, respectively. The structure of polymers was discussed on the basis of the data of their elementary, infrared (IR), and thermal analyses and the binding ability of heavy metal ion. Polyampholytes were soluble in strong acidic and basic media but were precipitated in the pH range 3-4. An isoelectric point at pH 3 was determined by potentiometric titration and the turbidimetric method. By thermal treatment above 205°C the polyampholyte turned quantitatively into a cyclized lactam. This suggests that the polyampholyte MA-VA has an intramolecular hydrogen bond between the amino and γ-carboxyl groups. The binding of Cu2+ and Hg2+ by the polyelectrolyte was evaluated by equilibrium dialysis.

    Notes: Detailed results of the overall thermal degradation of poly(butylene terephthalate) are reported. Laser microprobe analysis and dynamic mass spectrometric techniques were used to identify the primary volatile degradation products and initial pyrolysis reactions that control polymer degradation. A complex multistage decomposition mechanism was observed which involves two major reaction pathways. Initial degradation occurs by an ionic decomposition process that results in the evolution of tetrahydrofuran. This is followed by concerted ester pyrolysis reactions that involve an intermediate cyclic transition state and yield 1,3-butadiene. Simultaneous decarboxylation reactions occur in both decomposition regimes. Finally, the latter stages of polymer decomposition were characterized by evolution of CO and complex aromatic species such as toluene, benzoic acid, and terephthalic acid. Activation energies of formation for the main pyrolysis products were determined from the dynamic measurements of the major ion species and indicate values of E = 27.9 kcal/mole for the production of tetrahydrofuran and E = 49.7 kcal/mole for the production of butadiene.

    Notes: This article deals with studies of the dilute solution properties of methyl methacrylate-acrylonitrile (MMA-AN) copolymer of 0.415 mole fraction (mf) of acrylonitrile composition. Mark - Houwink parameters for this copolymer have been evaluated in acetonitrile (MeCN), 2-butanone (MEK), dimethyl formamide (DMF), and γ-butyrolactone (γ-BL). The Mark-Houwink exponent a in all four solvents at all temperatures is larger than the corresponding values of the parent homopolymers. The solvent power is in the order of DMF 〈 γ-BL 〈 MEK 〈 MeCN; [η] decreases with an increase in temperature, which is behavior characteristic of polymers in good solvent. The unperturbed dimensions (K0) values, obtained by the Stockmayer-Fixman method, are lower than those for the parent homopolymers and depend on solvent as well as temperature. The solute - solvent interaction parameter X1 values are close to 0.5; X1 is independent of temperature. The excess interaction parameter XABvalues are negative. The results for this copolymer system in regard to low second virial coefficient A2, large X1, and high a values suggest that the large extension of these copolymer chains is due to the unusual short-range interactions.

    Notes: (2-Ethyl-2-methyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl- and (2-methyl-2-phenyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl) methyl acrylates were synthesized and polymerized. The photochemical behavior of the resulting polymers was investigated to determine whether the polymers pending on the 1,3-dioxolane structure were readily crosslinked with ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. The degree of crosslinking was estimated by the weight-loss method by immersion in acetone, with the result that the polymer with an aromatic substituent was more photocrosslinkable than the polymer that bore the aliphatic substituent. The catalytic effect on photocrosslinking of polymers was also studied by using benzoin and cobalt naphthenate. The infrared (IR) spectra of polymers irradiated in air that showed the new band at 3450 cm-1 were attributed to a hydroxyl group; however, the spectra of polymers irradiated in vacuum displayed little absorption at 3450 cm-1. To explain the mechanism of crosslinking model compounds were prepared and irradiated with UV light. It was concluded that crosslinking proceeds mainly from the fission of the 1,3-dioxolane ring and the coupling of the yielding radicals, together with autooxidation by atmospheric oxygen.

    Notes: Behavior of the free radical copolymerization of N-β-methacryloyloxyethyl derivatives of adenine with that of thymine was studied in chloroform solution, taking account of the specific base-base interaction of these monomers. Hydrogen bonding interaction between such monomers was observed by NMR spectroscopy. The acceleration of copolymerization was found to be greater either at lower monomer concentration or at lower polymerization temperature. When N-β-methacryloyloxyethylcarbazole was used as a comonomer, the rate of copolymerization showed a similar trend as in the case of usual free radical copolymerizations. From r1 and r2 values obtained, the copolymerization was found to be alternating, particularly in the case of copolymerization between monomers having complementary nucleic acid bases. The results suggest that the hydrogen bonding interaction between adenine and thymine plays a role in the propagation step.

    Notes: “Pyran” copolymer, the 2:1 regularly alternating cyclocopolymer (DVE - MA) of maleic anhydride (MA) and divinyl ether (DVE), first discovered in 1951, has been investigated extensively, both from the standpoint of its chemical structure and its biological activity. Although certain aspects of its structure remain to be determined, it has been shown to possess a wide spectrum of biological activity. It possesses antitumor activity and has been investigated clinically. During the clinical investigation, it was found to be an interferon inducer. Interferon is a protein which appears to be the body's first line of defense against viral infection. DVE - MA also possesses antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, antiarthritic, and anticoagulant properties, activates macrophages, inhibits reverse transcriptase, and is capable of elimination of Pu. During the course of investigations in these laboratories, many structural modifications of DVE - MA have been made. Many of these modifications also possess considerable antitumor activity and interferon-induction capability. Perhaps the most interesting structural modification has been the incorporation of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) into the polymer (NSC 255083). This polymer has shown (T/C)% [= ratio of test (T) to control (C) survival times] = 189 for dose by intraperitoneal injection of 200 mg/kg animal weight in CD2F1 mice (6/6 survivors after fifth day) against P388 lymphocytic leukemia. This article describes the synthesis of both the monomer and copolymer, and a study of the hydrolytic rate of release of 5-FU from the polymer.

    Notes: 2,2,4-Trimethyl-3-on-1-pentyl methacrylate (TMPM) was first synthesized from the condensation reaction of 2,2,4-trimethyl-1-pentanol-3-on with methacrylic acid. Second, the polymerization of TMPM and the copolymerization of TMPM with styrene (St) were carried out in benzene at 60°C, using 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as an initiator. As the result of kinetic investigation, the rate of polymerization (Rp) could be expressed by: Rp = k[AIBN]0.5 [TMPM]1.0. Kinetic constants of polymerization of TMPM were obtained as follows: kp/kt1/2 = 0.27 dm3/2 mole-1/2 sec-1/2, 2fkd = 1.23 × 10-5 sec-1, f = 0.73, Cm = 2.6 × 10-5, Cs = 1.1 × 10-5. From the results the reactivity of TMPM was found to be larger than that of methyl methacrylate. The overall activation energy was calculated to be 110 kJ mole-1. The following monomer reactivity ratios and Q, e values were obtained: TMPM(M1) - St(M2): r1 = 1.50, r2 = 0.14, Q1 = 2.63, E1 = 0.45.

    Notes: The homopolymerization of propylene oxide was first conducted at 80°C in the absence of any solvent by using various metal salts of acetic acid and it was found that Mg(OAc)2, Cr(OAc)3, Mn(OAc)2, Co(OAc)2, Ni(OAc)2, Zn(OAc)2, and Sn(OAc)2 were effective for the polymerization. The copolymerization of propylene oxide and carbon dioxide was next examined by using these effective metal salts of acetic acid as catalysts. Most of these were effective also for the copolymerization. The nature of the polymer obtained was strongly dependent on the catalyst used. Co(OAc)2 and Zn(OAc)2 gave an alternate copolymer of propylene oxide and carbon dioxide, Mg(OAc)2, Cr(OAc)3, and Ni(OAc)2 gave a random copolymer, while Sn(OAc)2 gave a homopolymer of propylene oxide. Then the copolymerization of propylene oxide and carbon dioxide was kinetically investigated in some detail by using Co(OAc)2 as a catalyst. On the basis of the results obtained, a plausible mechanism was proposed for both the homopolymerization of propylene oxide and copolymerization of propylene oxide and carbon dioxide.

    Notes: The kinetics of the intermediates in unterminated polymerization reactions were studied. It was found that in a first-order initiation (A) all intermediates accumulate monotonically. In a second-order initiation (B) the first intermediates pass through a maximum, whereas the later ones strictly accumulate. An initiator-started polymerization can follow course A or course B, depending on the initial ratio of the concentrations of the initiator and monomer.

    Notes: The copolymerizations of l-menthyl vinyl ether (l-MVE) with the monomers, that is, maleic anhydride (MAn), dimethyl maleate (DMM), and dimethyl fumarate (DMFu), were undertaken to obtain optically active copolymers. The optically active l-menthyl group in the side chain of copolymers was removed by the ether cleavage reaction with dry-hydrogen bromide gas. The ethercloven copolymers were still optically active. Hence it was concluded that asymmetric carbon atoms were introduced into the copolymer main chain, the reason given being that l-MVE and comonomers (MAn, DMM, and DMFu) made the stereoselective charge-transfer complex one another and copolymerized stereospecifically. From the results of the measurements of optical rotatory dispersion (ORD) and circular dichroism (CD) for copolymers before and after the ether cleavage reaction, the mode of bond opening for α,β-substituted monomers (MAn, DMM, and DMFu) was discussed and the microstructures of copolymers were prepared.

    Notes: The stability of PTFE latex prepared in the absence of emulsifier by radiation-induced polymerization was investigated by electrophoresis and conductometric titration. The storage stability depends on total dose rather than dose rate, and the stable latex can be obtained in the region log D 〉 0.026 V1 - 0.6, where D is the total dose (104 rad) and V1 is a polymer concentration in latex (g/liter). The stability increases only during polymerization in the presence of enough TFE monomer. The ζ potential of the latex particles lies in the region from -25 to -50 mV in an as-polymerized state (near pH 3) and from -50 to -65 mV at pH 10. The number of carboxyl end groups and surface charge density were examined by conductometric titration with NaOH and calculation from the G values of radiolysis of water. All the surface charge densities measured by conductometric titration are larger than those calculated from the G values. These results suggest that some acids have been formed on the surface of the particles. The acids may be the carboxyl end groups of polymer chains or hydrofluoric acid (HF) adsorbed on the surface. PTFE particles prepared in this polymerization system are stabilized mainly due to the carboxyl end groups and adsorptions of OH- and HF on the particles.

    Notes: Thermodynamically effective fixed-charge density of mercuric phosphate and carbonate parchment-supported membranes have been evaluated by the most recent method of Nagasawa et al., based on the thermodynamics of irreversible processes and compared with the values obtained by the Kobatake et al. and Teorell - Meyer - Sievers (TMS) methods. Bi-ionic potential (BIP) has also been measured for these membranes with three pairs of electrolyte solutions: KCl—NaCl, KCl—LiCl, and NaCl—LiCl. Theoretical values of BIP have been calculated by using the membrane potential and BIP theories recently developed by Toyoshima et al., based on nonequilibrium thermodynamics. Various parameters have also been evaluated and it was found that the theoretical equation of BIP is applicable to these parchment-supported membranes.

    Notes: Two new techniques for the determination of monomer reactivity ratios in copolymerization under high-pressure conditions have been developed, viz., the “sandwich” and the “quenching” method. Both methods are based on repeated quantitative gas chromatographic analysis of the reaction mixture during the low-pressure stages preceding and succeeding the high-pressure stage, of which the kinetics is under investigation. Application of the “sandwich” method implies the occurrence of reaction during both low-pressure stages and consequently the low-pressure kinetic data are required to obtain the transition points of low to high pressure and vice versa. These points constitute the initial and final conditions of the relevant high-pressure reaction. On the contrary, in the “quenching” method no reaction occurs during the low-pressure stages, owing to the lower temperature and the high activation energy of the initiator decomposition. As a consequence, the initial and final conditions of the high-pressure stage can be determined by a simple averaging procedure. Both methods have been tested for the ethylene - vinyl acetate copolymerization at 62°C and 600 kg/cm2 with tert-butyl alcohol as solvent, and appear to lead to almost identical monomer reactivity ratios, although the “quenching” method is slightly preferred in case of copolymerization reactions. Both methods are particularly valuable when one of the reactants is gaseous or the reaction produces a gas. Further merits and drawbacks of both methods are discussed.

    Notes: In due consideration of the specific base-base interaction that exists between nucleic acid molecules, the free radical polymerization of N-β-methacryloyloxyethyl derivatives of adenine, thymine, and theophylline initiated by azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) was studied in the presence of N-β-methacryloyloxyethyl-type polymers which have complementary nucleic acid bases as template polymers. The rate of polymerization of N-β-methacryloyloxyethyladenine was accelerated when poly(N-β-methacryloyloxyethyluracil) or -thymine was present in the polymerization system. The effect of the stereoregularity of the template polymers, as well as polymerization temperature and the sort of solvents used on the rate of polymerization, was studied and discussed in some detail. The results suggest that the interaction between complementary bases plays a role in template polymerization behavior.

    Notes: Catalytic actions of various additives were studied in the polycondensation of di(4-nitrophenyl) isophthalate with bis(4-aminophenyl) ether in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, and 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt) was found to be a highly effective catalyst that yielded high-molecular-weight polyamide. In addition to the polycondensation of the 4-nitrophenyl ester, the polymerization of negatively substituted phenyl esters like di(2,4,5-trichlorophenyl) isophthalate was also accelerated by HOBt. For the HOBt-catalyzed aminolysis of esters a bifunctional concerted mechanism that involves an eight-membered transition state was proposed.

    Notes: The equilibrium constants of the coordination reaction of chlorodimethylformamide·cobaloxime with 4-vinylpyridine-styrene copolymers (PPS) were determined. The constants for PPS, which contain 20-50% 4-vinylpyridine (4VP) unit, measured about 1.3 × 105 liter/mole larger than those in the pyridine system (6.8 × 104 liter/mole). When the polymer ligand is 4VP homopolymer or contains less than 20% 4VP unit, K values are lower. The rate constants (kf) of the coordination reactions of the cobaloxime with polymer ligands were also measured in dimethylformamide (DMF) and benzene. In DMF kf decreased with an increase in 4VP unit content of the polymer ligand; in benzene it was increased by the 4VP fraction. These results can be explained by the variation in conformation of the polymer chain in each solvent. The effect of the polymer chain on complexation was discussed on the basis of the kinetic data.

    Notes: The structure of the 1:2 copolymer of divinyl ether and maleic anhydride was investigated by 13C-NMR spectroscopy. The polymer contains the bicyclic unit composed of one molecule of each monomer and the maleic anhydride unit. The carbon chemical shift for these units was calculated on the basis of the chemical shift of many model compounds. The major peaks of the cyclopolymer prepared in chloroform were consistent with the presence of the symmetrical bicyclic unit with cis junction and the trans monocyclic anhydride unit. The carbonyl carbon spectrum for the copolymer obtained in a mixed solvent of acetone and CS2 suggested the predominant formation of the unsymmetrical bicyclic unit. The polymerization process was discussed on the basis of these results.

    Notes: The complex formation between a poly(N-β-methacryloyloxyethyl) derivative of adenine with one of thymine or uracil was studied in dimethyl sulfoxide and ethylene glycol mixture by ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy. For the polymer pairs containing complementary nucleic acid bases both hypochromicity and hyperchromicity were found. Stereoregularity of the polymers, as well as the conditions for measurement of, for example, solvent, temperature, and time, affected the complex formation. Both inter- and intramolecular interaction of polymers in solution were discussed in some detail.

    Notes: Methyl methacrylate (MMA) and styrene (St) copolymerize in the presence of zinc chloride at 3°C under photoirradiation. The contents of methyl methacrylate in the copolymers obtained at a [ZnCl2]/[MMA] molar ratio of 0.4 are systematically larger than 53 mole %, which is the limiting value at a small feed ratio of methyl methacrylate. The resulting copolymers are confirmed as the sole products and not the mixtures by thin layer chromatography. The effect of dilution of the monomer feed mixture with toluene on copolymer composition suggests that it depends chiefly on the feed concentration of styrene and hardly at all on monomer feed ratios. Copolymerizations are also conducted in the presence of stannic chloride at -17°C under photoirradiation and in the presence of ethylaluminium sesquichloride at 0°C with spontaneous initiation. The contents of methyl methacrylate in both copolymers obtained at feed ratios lower than 60 mole % almost correspond to the 1:1 alternating copolymer and increase systematically with higher feed ratios. The systematic deviations of copolymer composition obtained in the presence of metal halides are reasonably interpreted by the participation of the binary molecular complex composed of metal halide and methyl methacrylate in the polymerization of the ternary molecular complex composed of metal halide, methyl methacrylate, and styrene.

    Notes: The process of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) formation in the presence of dicarboxylic acids has been studied. Certain amounts of terephthalic acid (TPA) have two- to threefold accelerating efficiency in the polycondensation process. To elucidate the causes of the acceleration the main reactions leading to PET formation in the presence of dicarboxylic acids have been investigated by the use of models. The evaluation of kinetic and equilibrium parameters obtained for model reactions made it possible to conclude that the influence of carboxyl-containing additives on the apparent rate of polycondensation manifests itself in accelerating direct reactions and facilitating the liberation of the eliminated by-product; that is, ethylene glycol (EG) from the polymer melt. Carboxylic acid acts as a catalyst on the ester interchange of 2-hydroxyethyl ester end groups and thus increases the rate of polymer formation in this reaction 10-40 times. The parallel interaction between the 2-hydroxyethyl ester end group and the carboxyl group of the added acid is also catalyzed by the acid and its rate constant is four times larger than that of the catalytic polycondensation of 2-hydroxyethyl ester end groups. Unlike EG, the reaction water formed in the process is more readily removed from the reaction system and thus promotes the intensification of the process. In addition, the carboxyl groups react with the eliminated EG to decrease its amount and shift the equilibrium toward polymer formation. The investigation of the consequent parallel reactions on models made it possible to draw a conclusion about the higher reactivity of 2-hydroxyethyl esters in the esterification processes. This fact has been explained by strengthening the nucleophilicity of the oxygen atom in the hydroxyl of a 2-hydroxyethyl ester group compared with that of EG; for example, by the formation of an intramolecular cycle involving a hydrogen bond. Simultaneously, it has been found that in the system simulating PET polycondensation in the presence of dicarboxylic acids the reaction mechanism involves the catalysis by a proton formed during the carboxyl group dissociation and accepted by the 2-hydroxyethyl ester group.

    Notes: The heterogeneous polymerization of acrylonitrile photoinitiated by naphthalene is influenced by the polarity of the reaction medium. The rate of initiation increases with the increasing dielectric strength of the reaction medium. A similar trend is observable for Stern-Volmer constants of naphthalene fluorescence quenching by acrylonitrile. The ratio kp/kt1/2 of the rate constant for propagation and termination reactions is not influenced by a change in the polarity of the reaction medium. The effect of viscosity on the value of kp/kt1/2 known for polymerization in a homogeneous medium was not observed in the reaction systems studied.

    Notes: The γ-ray-induced addition reaction of carbon tetrachloride onto syndiotactic 1,2-polybutadiene film and liquid 1,2-polybutadiene was carried out at room temperature. In the film gelation was pronounced and the rate of addition increased as the crystallinity of the polymer decreased. In the liquid gelation, which makes the polymer insoluble in carbon tetrachloride, did not take place, although a definite crosslinking reaction was noticed. In this case the appearance of the product changed from a viscous liquid to a white powder as the reaction proceeded. Its structure was compared with that of chlorinated 1,2-polybutadiene. The addition of carbon tetrachloride to the vinyl group in liquid 1,2-polybutadiene caused an anti-Markownikoff-type reaction and was accompanied by an unexpectedly large vinyl depletion in the polymer. The total decrease in the vinyl group was found to be much larger than that brought about by the addition of carbon tetrachloride. This discrepancy was attributed to a cyclization and crosslinking reaction ascribed to the vinyl group bound by the main chain. Cyclization and crosslinking were less noticeable in the chlorination than in the carbon tetrachloride.

    Notes: Products from the thermal decomposition of a chlorinated aromatic polyamide fabric are described for conditions of pyrolysis and flaming and nonflaming oxidative degradation. Volatile degradation products were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and the condensible fraction, by infrared (IR) spectroscopy, high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), and MS. Nonvolatile char was characterized by IR and elemental analysis. Twenty-one compounds were identified as volatile products from pyrolysis at 550°C; the condensible material contained ammonium chloride and at least 22 organic compounds. From volatile compounds produced in flaming oxidative degradation 21 compounds were identified, of which CO, CO2, and H2O were prominent. Nonflaming oxidative degradation at 400 and 550°C produced 11 and 21 volatile identifiable compounds, respectively, and results from experiments at the higher temperature compared favorably with results from the flaming experiments. By comparison of data from this work with those from unchlorinated analogs (described in an earlier article), it is concluded that the incorporation of chlorine into the polymeric structure lowers the temperature for the onset of thermal degradation and alters the type and concentration of thermolytic products. The major degradation products can be explained by a mechanism similar to that proposed for aromatic polyamides with the exception of the formation of substantial amounts of ammonium chloride. It is proposed that the latter is formed by an initial acid-catalyzed hydrolysis reaction which is followed by deammoniation or by an intermolecular process that involves an isoimide intermediate.

    Notes: The redox system of potassium persulfate-thiomalic acid (I1-I2) was used to initiate the polymerization of acrylamide (M) in aqueous medium. For 20-30% conversion the rate equation is \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ R_p = - \frac{{d[{\rm M}]}}{{dt}} = K[{\rm M}][{\rm I}_1]^{1/2} $$\end{document} where Rp is the rate of polymerization. Activation energy is 8.34 kcal deg-1 mole-1 in the investigated range of temperature 25-45°C. Mn is directly proportional to [M] and inversely to [I1]. The range of concentrations for which these observations hold at 35°C and pH 4.2 are [I1] = (1.0-3.0) × 10-3, [I2] = (3.0-7.5) × 10-3, and [M] = 5.0 × 10-2-3.0 × 10-1 mole/liter.

    Notes: The electroinitiated polymerizations of styrene, 2-vinylnaphthalene, and 9-vinylanthracene were compared in sulfolane and acetone solvents in the presence of ZnCl2. The relative orders of polymerization rates and polymerization efficiencies, in both solvents, were 9-vinylanthracene 〉 2-vinylnaphthalene 〉 styrene, with faster rates and higher efficiencies occurring in sulfolane. Data obtained from viscosity and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) studies indicate that the molecular weights of the polymers produced in these systems are extremely low, 〈5000. Chemical composition and infrared (IR) spectral data suggest that abnormal transfer reactions (possibly from solvent) may be occurring in the electroinitiated 9-vinylanthracene polymerizations. The polymerization mechanism appears to be cationic in these monomer-solvent systems with ZnCl2.

    Notes: 2-Butene(2B) copolymerizes with 3-heptene(3H) and 4-methyl-2-pentene(4M2P) by a monomer-isomerization copolymerization mechanism in the presence of TiCl3-(C2H5)3Al catalyst at 80°C to yield the copolymers of 1-olefin units. By comparison, the copolymerization of 1-butene(1B) with 4-methyl-1-pentene(4M1P) was also carried out under similar conditions. The composition of the copolymers obtained from these copolymerizations was determined from the ratios of optical densities D723/D1380 and D1170/D1380 in their infrared (IR) spectra. The apparent monomer reactivity ratios for the monomer-isomerization copolymerization of 2B with 3H and 4M2P, in which the concentration of olefin monomer in the feed was used as 2-olefin, were determined as follows: cis-2B(M1)/3H(M2); r1 = 4.00, r2 = 0.20: trans-2B(M1)/3H; r1 = 3.50, r2 = 0.20; 4M2P(M1)-trans-2B(M2): r1 = 0.05, r2 = 9.0. These results indicate that the isomerization of 2-olefins to 1-olefins was important to monomer-isomerization copolymerization.

    Notes: The copolymerization of 3-methyl-1-butene (3M1B), 2-methyl-2-butene (2M2B), or 2-methyl-1-butene (2M1B) with trans-2-butene (2B) was attempted in the presence of a Ziegler-Natta catalyst. It was found the 3M1B underwent monomer-isomerization copolymerization with 2B to give a copolymer consisting of both 3M1B and 1-butene (1B) units, with an infrared (IR) spectrum in good agreement with that obtained from the copolymerization of 3M1B with 1B under similar conditions. When the apparent copolymerization parameters obtained by a TiCl3-(C2H5)3Al catalyst were compared, the apparent reactivity of 3M1B observed in the 3M1B-2B system was much higher than that in the 3M1B-1B system. However, 2M2B and 2M1B did not undergo monomer-isomerization copolymerization with 2B, and only the homopolymer of 1B was obtained under similar conditions.

    Notes: Macrocyclic polyether or crown ether ester derivatives of acrylic and methacrylic acid were synthesized and polymerized. The cation binding properties of the polymers determined by extraction of picrate salts were similar to those obtained for poly(crown ether)s derived from styrene. In the presence of a crown-complexable cation both polymers form insoluble polysalt complexes with sodium carboxymethylcellulose, potassium poly(styrene sulfonate), and potassium polyacrylate. The extent of precipitation depends on the type and concentration of cation as well as on the ratio polyanion to poly(crown ether). The precipitate appears to have an equal number of positive and negative charges. An insoluble hydrogen-bonded complex is formed in the absence of salt when poly(vinylbenzo-18-crown-6) and poly(acrylic acid) are mixed in 0.01M HCl. Organic solutes bound to the poly(crown ether)s, which occur in an aqueous mixture of poly(vinylbenzo-18-crown-6) and picrate anions, are precipitated with the poly(crown ether) when the polysalt complex is formed.

    Notes: The kinetics of enantiomerically enriched t-butyl thiirane was studied. The stereoelectivity and the kinetic behavior are not changed when a monomer of an initial enantiomeric composition lower than a defined limit value is used. When the enantiomeric composition is higher than this value, the stereoelectivity increases. In agreement with kinetic results, a mechanism is proposed involving, in a first step, the complexation of monomer on preexisting sites of the initiator with formation of highly selective chiral active species on which propagation occurs.

    Notes: Oxyfluorination and postfluorination behaviors of poly(vinylidene fluoride) films, as well as hydrolysis of the films treated so far, have been studied by infrared (IR) spectrometry. By exposing the polymer film to a mixture of oxygen and fluorine at about 90°C acyl fluoride groups attendant on the scission of the polymer chains were formed. The oxyfluorinated molecules could be further perfluorinated with fluorine alone at about 90°C, leaving many of the acyl fluoride groups. When the properly oxyfluorinated and postfluorinated film was further treated with a hot 6M sodium hydroxide solution the opaque layer of perfluoroalkyl sodium carboxylate of high molecular weight was formed on the surface of the film, to about 3 μm in thickness, which behaved as a cation exchanger. This new type of cation exchanger of perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acid was significantly more acidic than the usual methacrylic acid exchanger. It was able to adsorb the sodium ions from a neutral sodium chloride solution up to about 70% of the exchange capacity and to keep the ions stable while washing them with water, though it could be regenerated to the hydrogen form with a dilute acetic acid solution. The nature of the new ion exchanger has been examined in some detail by IR spectrometry with Li+, Na+, and Cs+ ions.

    Notes: The stereoelective polymerization of racemic t-butyl thiirane was performed with chiral zinc glycolate. Monomers and polymers of high optical purities were isolated. A new kinetic scheme in which the ratio of the rates of consumption of both enantiomers obeys a second-order relationship is proposed. This behavior is different from that observed for other three-membered ring monomers.

    Notes: The growth center in the anionic polymerization of methacrylic esters is stabilized with alkaline alkoxides, sodium tert-butoxide in particular. The lifetime of the growth center was investigated in the polymerization of methyl methacrylate by evaluating yield and molecular weight distribution of the polymer formed when the monomer was added in two doses. The average lifetime of the original growth center stabilized by sodium tert-butoxide at 20°C under the given conditions was longer than several minutes. The stabilization of the growth center was also used in the stepwise copolymerization of n-butyl methacrylate and methyl methacrylate. The copolymer thus obtained in high yield was characterized as a block copolymer on the basis of its solubility, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra, and measurements of the complex shear modulus.

    Notes: The homogeneous catalyst Re(CO)5X (X = Cl, Br) was found to promote the homopolymerization of terminal alkynes at elevated temperatures. Detection and structure characterization of low-molecular-weight products provided evidence of the formation of a metal-acetylide species as the initiator of polymerization, and propagation occurs by a series of insertion reactions of coordinated alkynes into metal-carbon bonds of the growing chain. Evidence of the active forms of the catalyst comes from studies on gas evolution, catalyst derivatization, and copolymerization reactions. The final polymers have a linear, polyconjugated macrostructure, and the formation of aromatic species was not detected in these reactions.

    Notes: It was found that N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylene diamine and hexamethyl phosphorus triamide minimize chain transfer reactions in the polymerization of 1,3-butadiene in hydrocarbon solvent with alkylsodium or alkylpotassium initiators. The polymers obtained with alkylsodium initiators had a high molecular weight and high vinyl content at 90-95% conversion. The molecular weight of the polybutadiene made by alkylsodium and alkylpotassium initiators was dependent on the polymerization temperatures and modifier ratios, but the vinyl contents were independent of the modifier ratios. Vinyl contents of alkylpotassium-initiated polymers showed a slight dependency on polymerization temperature; the vinyl contents of alkylsodium-initiated polymers were independent of temperature. Addition of lithium tert-butoxide and potassium tert-amylate to these initiators in the presence of the modifiers affected the molecular weight but not the microstructure.

    Notes: Copolymerization of methyl trifluoroacrylate (MTFA) with propylene in bulk was induced by γ irradiation. A wide range of the initial monomer composition gives an equimolar alternating co-polymer. The reactivity ratios of r1 (MTFA) and r2 (propylene) were determined to be 0.01 and 0.005, respectively. The polymerization rate at an equimolar monomer composition is proportional to the 1.0 power of the dose rate. The dose rate dependency of higher than 0.5 may be ascribed to unimolecular termination due to a degradative chain transfer of propagating radicals to propylene. The G values of the initiating radical formation and the polymerization reaction were calculated to be 1.78 and 1336, respectively. The dependence of the copolymerization rate on the temperature was small, and the activation energy of copolymerization was 1.1 kcal/mole from -6 to 50°C.

    Notes: α-Isobutyl-L-aspartate oligomers, Z-(α-i-Bu-Asp)2n-OEt (n = 1-5), where Z = benzyloxycarbonyl and OEt = ethyl ester, were prepared stepwise, and their conformation in solution was investigated by optical rotation, circular dichroism (CD), and NMR spectroscopy. The oligomers up to hexamer existed only in a disordered form. An ordered structure began to appear at octamer and decamer in chloroform and 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol. The ordered structure was more favorable for N-unprotected oligomers, H-(α-i-Bu-Asp)2n-OEt, in comparison with the corresponding Z-(α-i-Bu-Asp)2n-OEt. The effects of oligomer concentration and temperature on the structure were slightly observed. The most likely ordered structure was a β form caused by intramolecular association.

    Notes: Thiophene was polymerized in high yield on exposure to aluminum chloride in solvent under mild conditions. Experimental evidence [IR, NMR, UV, and mass spectra, elemental analyses, reductive desulfurization, and comparison with the literature trimer of thiophene (prepared with phosphoric acid)] suggests the following structure: From gel permeation chromatography an average weight of 1290 was obtained, which corresponded to the presence of 15 rings; the highest-molecular-weight chains contained about 192 rings. Mechanistically, participation of cationic intermediates is proposed. Apparently chain extension can occur by various routes, including participation of neutral oligomer molecules.

    Notes: The thermodynamic parameters for the interaction of the hydrophobic fluorescent probe, 2-p-toluidinylnaphthalene-6-sulfonate (TNS), and polycations that contain a piperidinium cation and various nonpolar pendant groups were calculated. Binding is exothermic and involves a positive entropy gain. The contribution of the entropy term to the free energy change tends to increase with increasing hydrophobicity of the polymers. The intensity of the fluorescence of TNS is enhanced when the probe binds to the polycations. The nature and phenomena of hydrophobic fluorescent probe binding with the polymers are discussed.

    Notes: Potentiometric titrations in water of high-molecular-weight partly hydrolyzed polyacrylamides were analyzed by the Lifson - Katchalsky rodlike model. A fair concordance was found between theory and experimental curves with pK0 of acid functions of about 4.75 when 0 〈 τ 〈 0.49. Two methods were derived to calculate the parameter n of the extended Henderson-Hasselbach equation by using a series expansion of pKa vs. α, not yet reported in the literature. A new equation for n was established and comparison between two sets of values of n, obtained by using the theoretical ΔpK curves and series expansion is discussed.

    Notes: The Q-e concept of the Alfrey and Price1 has been applied successfully to the prediction of the pressure effect on the individual reactivity ratios in free-radical copolymerizations. Although the Q value of a given monomer is generally little affected by an increase in pressure, the e value is pressure dependent. The knowledge of the Q and e values at high pressures permits the prediction of variations in reactivity ratios with pressure. Some important consequences have been drawn from this concept.

    Notes: The reaction between tert-butylchloride (t-BuCl) and dimethylcyclopentadienylaluminum (Me2AlCPD) was studied as a model for initiation by the tert-butyl cation (t-Bu⊕) and termination by cyclopentadienylation by the Me2Al(CPD)Cl⊖ counteranion of isobutylene polymerization. All reaction products formed in this model system have been identified and quantitatively determined. A comprehensive scheme that indicates pathways to these products was developed (scheme III). It is proposed that the predominant product, tert-butylcyclopentadiene (t-BuCPD), arises in the collapse of the t-Bu⊕-Me2Al(CPD)Cl⊖ ion pair, mainly by CPD⊖ transfer to the tert-butyl cation. The minor products are neopentane (t-BuMe) and isobutylene (i-C4H8), which are probably formed, respectively, by Me⊖ transfer to and proton loss from the t-butyl cation. Cyclopentadienylation selectivity increases by lowering the temperature and extrapolation of results suggests 100% cyclopentadienylation at -55°C. The t-BuCl/Me2AlCPD ratio strongly influences the overall reaction pathway. The reaction is first order in t-BuCl with ΔEa of ca. 7 kcal/mole (1,2-dichloroethane or chlorobenzene solvents, +24 to -29°C). Indirect evidence indicates that the kinetic product of cyclopentadienylation is 5-t-BuCPD and that this isomer cannot be tert-butylated; that is, the initiation of 5-t-BuCPD polymerization by t-Bu⊕ is sterically unfavorable. Detailed analysis of the chemistry and kinetics of the t-BuCl/Me2AlCPD model system holds important clues to the controlled polymerization of olefins leading to macromolecules with cyclopentadiene (CPD) termini.

    Notes: Radiation-induced bulk polymerization of vinyl chloride has been carried out under centrifugation at 21°C. The polymerization rate and the molecular weight of the polymer produced were found to remain constant in the low-conversion region and to be equal to the corresponding values that were obtained by extrapolation at zero conversion in normal polymerization. This was at variance with the case of normal polymerization in which both quantities exhibit a continuous increase from the start of the polymerization. Such an increase is to be associated with the presence of large agglomerates, formed through flocculation of initially originated particles, in the liquid monomer phase during the polymerization under quiescent conditions. For the constancy of the kinetic parameters in the polymerization under centrifugation it should be assumed that in the system there remain dispersed only particles not yet flocculated.

    Notes: Electrodialytic behavior of cation exchange membrane having cationic polyelectrolyte layer on its surface (relative transport number between two cations, PM1M2, current efficiency, and electric resistance of the membrane during the electrodialysis) was measured using various cations, and the mechanism of selective permeation of lower-valent cations than the higher and of larger hydrated cations than the smaller was investigated. The following conclusions were obtained: (1) the cationic polyelectrolyte layer narrowed the pathway for ions; (2) when the pathway was made narrower by other methods, the remarkable change of the permselectivity of the membrane did not occur; (3) the effectiveness of the cationic polyelectrolyte layer was depressed by the treatment with anionic polyelectrolytes to neutralize the cationic charge on the membrane surface; and (4) the cation with larger hydrated diameter (potassium ions) more easily permeated through the membrane having the polyelectrolyte layer than that with the smaller hydrated diameter (sodium ions). It is concluded that the change of PM1M2 by the cationic charge layer on the membrane surface is based on the difference in the strength of the electrostatic repulsion between two cations against the cationic charge layer.

    Notes: In the presence of an optical active amyloxyaluminum or menthoxyaluminum chloride the asymmetric-induction alternating copolymerization of benzofuran or 1,3-cyclooctadiene and acrylonitrile or methacrylonitrile was investigated. The sign of optical rotation of copolymers was positive or negative, depending on the kind of catalyst used. The optical activity of copolymers of benzofuran and acrylonitrile attains a maximum value at an equimolar composition. The highest specific rotation [α]D of copolymers of benzofuran and acrylonitrile prepared in the presence of stoichiometric amount of ( - )-menthoxyaluminum dichloride with respect to acrylonitrile was about -8°. The stereo-structure of acrylonitrile unit may be controlled by the optical active aluminum compound onto which a strong coordination of acrylonitrile may occur.

    Notes: The mechanism of cyclic oligomer formation has been kinetically studied by determining the rate of the formation of cyclic oligomers during melt of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) at several levels of average molecular weight, which were obtained by fractionation and did not initially contain oligomers. The experimental rate equation of cyclic oligomer formation was introduced and then compared with the rate equation derived theoretically. The close agreement between the two equations suggested that the cyclic oligomer formation takes place according to cyclodepolymerization by the action of hydroxyl end groups in PET. The relation is represented as [C] = m·[OH]0·t1-n, where [C] is the concentration of cyclic oligomers, [OH]0 is the initial concentration of hydroxyl end groups, m and n are constants, and t is melting time. A method has also been developed for separating cyclic oligomers from PET using dimethylformamide (DMF) as a solvent.

    Notes: Block copolymers of ethylene and butadiene with short ethylene sequences and degrees of polymerization up to 250 have been studied calorimetrically to determine their structure in the melt and also on crystallization. Crystallization rate characteristics and the thermodynamic parameters of the melting of block copolymers were studied. Block copolymers with ethylene sequences with degrees of polymerization below 20-30 were amorphous. Those with ethylene sequences of 35-45 units crystallized with extended chain crystals; above 45 units the polyethylene blocks crystallized with chain folding. There was a corresponding reduction in the melting point of the crystals and in the surface free energy of the crystals. The extent of crystallinity that developed within the copolymers was dependent on crystallization temperature and independent of time. This behavior was unlike that exhibited by polyethylene samples of similar molecular weight and was considered due to the effect of phase separation of the two blocks in the melt and nucleation control of the crystallization of the isolated domains. Analogous behavior was observed with polyethylene for polymer blends with polystyrene.

    Notes: Cationic copolymerization of l-menthyl vinyl ether (l-MVE) with indene (IN) was carried out in several solvents with BF3OEt2 as catalyst at 0°C. The solvents used in this study were selected toluene (Tol), chloroform (CHCl3), chlorobenzene (BzCl), 1,2-dichloroethane (EtCl2), and nitrobenzene; (BzNO2)/Tol = 65/35 mixture solvent. l-Methyl residue, which is an optically active side chain of copolymer produced by cationic copolymerization, was removed with dry hydrogen bromide gas by ether cleavage reaction. The copolymer [vinyl alcohol(VA)-lN], produced by the ether cleavage reaction, also showed optical rotation. From this result, therefore, it was concluded that asymmetric induction takes place in the copolymer main chain. The efficiency of asymmetric induction was determined by the measurement of optical rotation of VA-IN copolymer after the ether cleavage reaction. The efficiency of asymmetric induction in the copolymer main chain developed from the variation on polymerization solvents; the order was Tol 〉 EtCl2 〉 BzCl 〉 CHCl3 〉 BzNO2/Tol (65/35) mixture solvent.

    Notes: Kinetic deviations with the conversion observed in free-radical-initiated [acrylonitrile (A)-styrene (S)] copolymerization carried out in DMF solution have been interpreted in terms of preferential solvation of the polymer by one of the monomers or the solvent. First it is well established that the initial styrene content of the PAS copolymer increases if a slight amount of polymer is introduced before the beginning of polymerization. Next the preferential solvation has been studied and characterized in various solvents (toluene or DMF) from the results of differential refractometry at dialysis equilibrium of the ternary solution (solvent-monomer-polymer) versus its solvent mixture. It was found that the most polar monomer, acrylonitrile, is already adsorbed by the polymer, mostly in copolymerizations carried out in DMF, from initially rich acrylonitrile mixtures. It is suggested that this phenomenon implies a heterogeneous repartition of the monomer mixture in the solution, which may affect the kinetic copolymerization when the conversion increases.

    Notes: The ionene polymers were prepared by the Menshutkin reaction of α,ω-dibromoalkane (n) with triethylenediamine (TDA) or 4,4′-bipyridil (BP). Resistivities (p) and activation energies of conduction (Ea) were measured for the polymeric 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethan (TCNQ) salts with these ionenes. The correlation between the chemical structure of the ionenes and the conductivity was discussed. In the TDA,n-TCNQ complex salts and the BP,n-TCNQ simple salts the salts of the ionenes containing even numbers of CH2 groups showed higher conductivities than those of the ionenes containing odd numbers of CH2 groups. The conductivities determined by the narrower interval between the N+ cations of the main chains were measured in the simple salts. In the complex salts the conductivities determined by the larger interval were measured. The conformational change of the matrix ionenes affected the arrangement of the TCNQ molecules. The values of p were 79.7 and 12.5 Ω cm, and the values of Ea were 0.122 and 0.063 eV for TDA,4-TCNQ complex salt and BP,5-TCNQ complex salt, respectively.

    Notes: Kinetics of solution polymerization of styrene was studied using pyridine as solvent and BZ2O2 and azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as initiators at 60°C. Normal kinetic features (Rp ∝ [AIBN]0.5 · [styrene]1.0) were observed for the AIBN-initiated polymerization, with pyridine playing the role of an inert diluent; but in the BZ2O2-initiated polymerization, the monomer exponent was found to vary from a low value of 0.45 at a relatively low initiator concentration (1 × 10-2 mole/liter) to a value higher than the usual value of unity (1.18) at a much higher concentration of the initiator (16 × 10-2 mole/liter). The initiator exponent value was found to be 0.5 (usual) up to 20% v/v dilution with pyridine, but it showed a tendency to decrease with increase in pyridine content beyond 20% v/v. The kp2/kt value for each initiator system, however, was found to remain constant over the whole concentration range of pyridine. The unusual kinetic features were explained on the basis of predominance of one or the other of two competitive reactions in BZ2O2-initiated system: (a) higher rate of decomposition of BZ2O2 in pyridine and (b) primary radical depletion by reaction with pyridine, depending upon the concentration of BZ2O2 and pyridine.

    Notes: SAXS measurements on dilute solutions of polyisobutene in n-hexane (Mν = 25,600-3.55 × 106, c 〈 53 g/liter) were carried out by combining conventional slit collimation with the new cone collimation technique. With a fractionated sample (Mν = 25,600; U 〈 0.2) the radius of gyration (R = 48 Å), the cross-sectional radius of gyration (Rq = 3.9 Å), the molecular weight per unit length (M/L = 22.8 Å-1), and the Porod persistence length (a* = 8.1 Å) are found. The persistence length appears to be dependent on the molecular weight. The partial specific volume ν of polyisobutene in n-hexane also depends on the molecular weight according to ν = 1.025 + 105/Mν (cm3/g).

    Notes: The rate of n-butyl vinyl ether polymerization by chromyl chloride is first order in [catalyst] and second order in [monomer]. Added H2O (after a certain concentration) and HCl increase the rate, thiophene retards the rate, while pyridine inhibits the rate. DP is independent of [chromyl chloride] and increases with increasing [monomer] up to 1M, thereafter becoming independent of it. Both rate and DP increase over the range 10-32°C and decrease at higher temperatures.

    Notes: Thermoelastic (stress-temperature) measurements in elongation have been carried out on polyurethane elastomers obtained from poly(ethylene adipate), poly(ethylene maleate), poly(ethylene glycol), and 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate. The elastomers were crosslinked by an excess of diisocynate and some of them were additionally crosslinked by dicumyl peroxide. Values of the temperature coefficient d ln r02/dT of the unperturbed dimensions of the network chains and the fraction fe/f of the stress, which is due to energetic effects, were calculated from measurements of unswollen samples and samples swollen in benzene to a constant volume fraction ν2 of about 0.6. The coefficient d ln r02/dT and the ratio fe/f for unswollen samples were positive but dependent on the extension ratio α and crosslinking density. The fe/f ratio displayed a tendency to decrease with increasing α and this decrease was smaller for elastomers of higher crosslinking density. Additional crosslinking due to dicumyl peroxide reduced the dependence of fe/f on α. Swollen samples had lower positive values of fe/f; which were somewhat independent of α and crosslinking density. Departures from the molecular theories of rubberlike elasticity are explained by intermolecular effects, which, in general, are influenced by crosslinking.

Solution polycondensation of new linear bisanhydrides, terephthalic bis(mesitoic anhydride) and adipic bis(mesitoic anhydride), with aromatic diamines in polar aprotic solvents that contained lithium chloride at room temperature, afforded polyamides with high molecular weight. The interfacial polycondensation in a dichloromethane-water system also successfully yielded polyamides from aliphatic diamines.

    Notes: On the basis of the simultaneously measured free radical generation and HCl evolution a mechanism accounting for the effect of the oxygen on the degradation of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) is proposed. The mechanism is based on the reaction of oxygen with radicals generated in PVC to form unstable peroxy radicals. In addition, it is proposed that oxygen reacts directly with conjugated polyenes to form peroxy linkage.

    Notes: Photopolymerization of cyclohexene oxide in the presence of electron acceptors was studied in a bulk system (in liquid as well as in solid states). The polymerization was proved to proceed by a cationic mechanism in both states by the effect of inhibitors. In a liquid phase the light intensity dependence of the rate of polymerization and the molecular weight distribution showed a contribution of a free ionic polymerization. Any discontinuous phenomenon in the rate as well as in the molecular weight was not discerned between liquid(above -36°C) and plastic crystal (between -36 and -81°C) phases. A quantum yield of monomer consumption as high as 8 × 103 was observed in the plastic crystal phase. Below -81°C in the normal crystal phase the rate as well as the molecular weight was remarkably suppressed.

    Notes: New processable polyaromatic ether-keto-sulfones were prepared from 2,2′-diiododiphenyl-4,4′-dicarbonyl dichloride (I), bis(p-phenoxybenzene)sulfone (II), isophthaloyl chloride (III), and diphenyl ether (IV) in Friedel-Crafts-type polymerizations. In the most promising of the iodine-containing polymers phenylacetylenyl groups were introduced in place of iodine. This polymer, with an initial monomer ratio of I:II:III:IV = 1:5:7:3, was further investigated. It is soluble in DMF, DMA, pyridine, and sulfuric acid. After curing it was insoluble in all solvents used and lost only 1.1% of its weight at 300°C when heated in air for three days. Hence in this cured state it has excellent chemical and thermal resistance. It can be cast into a film from solution in DMAc and a glass fiber laminate is readily prepared. The film is tough, transparent, and brown in color. The cured film is tougher than the uncured. The glass fiber laminate is also tough and fairly flexible. A distinct advantage of this type of polymer is its ready availability in relatively cheap raw materials. The phenylacetylenyl-group-containing polymer showed a transition temperature at 175°C and two exotherm peaks at 243 and 361°C which disappeared after curing in a DSC thermogram. Before and after curing this polymer displayed softening temperatures at 149 and 171°C, respectively, measured by a Vicat apparatus at a heating rate of 1°C/min. No melting temperatures up to 500°C were observed for any of the polymers in this study.

    Notes: n-Butyl titanate(IV)-triethylaluminum catalyst at Al/Ti molar ratios greater than 6 polymerizes methyl and n-butyl acrylates at -78°C. The polymerization system which includes methyl acrylate at -78°C, gives two ESR signals with g factors of 1.958 and 1.961 that overlap each other. The absorption intensity of the latter signal is approximately proportional to the polymer chain concentration calculated from polymer yield and the molecular weight. The polymerization system at Al/Ti ratios smaller than 3 has no catalytic activity on the polymerization and shows only the ESR signal with the g factor of 1.958. On the basis of these facts the ESR signal with the g factor of 1.961 is attributed to the active growing end of poly(methyl acrylate) with this catalyst. The character of this active growing end is discussed.

    Notes: Direct polycondensation of various nylon salts (salts of dicarboxylic acid and diamine) took place under mild conditions in the formation of polyamide in the presence of polyphosphates and organic bases. Among organic bases imidazole was the best in terms of polymer yields. The reactivity of the polyphosphates was arranged in following order: pyrophosphate ≅ tripolyphosphate 〉 tetrapolyphosphate. Otimum reaction conditions were investigated in terms of solvents, temperatures, and concentration of monomers. A reaction mechanism was proposed for the phosphorylation reaction, due to polyphosphates, which led to the direct polycondensation of nylon salts.

    Notes: Raman spectra of poly(tetramethyl-p-silphenylene-siloxane) were investigated in solution with depolarization ratios and in the solid state. Polarized infrared (IR) spectra were studied on oriented polymer samples. Assignments of the vibrational bands are given and IR dichroic and Raman data are in agreement with tetragonal P41 space group symmetry. These data provide information on the arrangement of the Si—C6H4—Si groups in the unit cell. On the basis of vibrational spectra the dynamic interaction between adjacent benzene rings is negligibly small and the rings preserve their local D2h Pseudosymmetry.

    Notes: The thermal stability of poly(vinyl fluoride) (PVF) was studied by thermal gravimetry and mass spectrometry (TGA and TGA-MS). In low-molecular-weight polymers a two-step decomposition pattern was observed. It consisted of the dehydrofluorination to a polyene chain followed by decomposition of the resulting polyene at higher temperatures. Copolymers of vinyl fluoride-vinyl acetate (VF-VAc) and vinyl fluoride-vinyl chloride (VF-VCl) showed a simultaneous evolution of hydrofluoric acid and acetic acid and hydrofluoric acid and hydrochloric acid, respectively. This suggests that after the elimination of the weakest link a spontaneous elimination of neighboring HF molecules takes place.

    Notes: In the initial moment of the tetralin oxidation in the presence of tetralin and cumene hydroperoxides (THP, CHP) as well as of zinc diisobutyldithiocarbamate (ZDTC) an intensive absorption of oxygen-prooxidation effect was observed. A pulsation absorption of oxygen during the oxidation of tetralin with ZDTC and AIBN was established. It has been proved that the stoichiometric coefficient of inhibition (f) is a function of the ZDTC concentration. A probable scheme of the decomposition of the THP with ZDTC which includes the formation of SO2 as possible decomposition agent of ROOH according to the ionic mechanism was suggested.

    Notes: It was reported that acrolein (AL) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) polymerizes at temperatures below 0°C in the presence of pyridine (Py) and water. To clarify this polymerization mechanism the polymerization of AL and methyl vinyl ketone (MVK) by an initiation system such as Py-water, triethylamine (Et3N)-water, or Py-phenol(Ph) was carried out. The polymerization rate (Rp) of MVK in the Et3N-water system was expressed by the same equation, Rp = k [Et3N] [H2O] [MVK]2, used for AL in the Py-water system. Meanwhile, β-hydroxypropionaldehyde, β-phenoxypropionaldehyde, γ-ketobutanol, and β-phenoxy-1-methylpropionketone were obtained as the initial addition products. The polymer of AL obtained was composed of polymer units of vinyl and aldehyde polymerization, but the structure of MVK polymer obtained by the Py-water system was composed of only vinyl polymerization units. The polymerization of MVK by the Py-Ph system did not occur, however. These results were discussed in terms of the initiation and propagation mechanisms.

    Notes: The effect of moisture on the glass transition temperature of poly(hydroxy methylene) was investigated by thermal analysis which entailed combinations of DTA and DSC with TGA techniques. As the moisture content increased, the glass transition temperature (Tg) decreased monotonically from a value (Tgo) of 134°C for the dry polymer toward a finite value (Tgt) of about 39°C. This response of Tg to an increase in the moisture content (w) was adequately represented by the general relationship Tg = (ΔTg)0 exp{-[ln(ΔTg)0]w/τwl} + Tgl, recently developed for correlating Tg and moisture content of nylon 6 and and found generally applicable to hydrophilic polymers. With (ΔTg)0 = 95, τ = 0.555, and wl = 0.375, good agreement was found between experimental and calculated values for poly(hydroxy methylene).

    Notes: The polymerization of methyl methacrylate and styrene photosensitized by acetone, aldehydes, ethyl pyruvate, 2,3-butanedione, and 2,3-pentanedione has been investigated and the effect of several additives (carbon tetrachloride, cumene, diethyl amine, triethyl amine, 2-pentanol, and tetrahydrofuran) on initiation efficiency has been evaluated. The initiation efficiency of a given system depends on several factors, the most important of which are the relative rates of quenching by the monomers and the additives and type of product obtained.
