    Notes: The effects of the nature of the polyols used in polyurethane (PUR) synthesis on the structural transformations after ageing by UV irradiation has been studied. The investigations were performed on PUR prepared from polyester and polyether diol oligomers.The characterization of the samples before and after ageing in view of the structural changes, which influence the course of the photooxidative degradation and photocrosslinking as well as in view of changes of mechanical properties has been done. Comparative investigations were performed by spectroscopic and viscometric measurements.The results show pronounced heterogeneity of the degradative reactions, including the existence of crosslinking processes and producing thus very inhomogeneous polymeric material. The course and the intensity of photooxidative degradation of PUR differ together with changes of mechanical properties depending whether polyester or polyether polyol have been used. The processes of photooxidative degradation is less expressed in polyesterurethane then in polyurethane based on polyether, under the same conditions of experiments. Different structures of polyester diols caused the various ageing behaviour of PUR too.

    Notes: QUALIFICATION OF HALS COMPOUNDSA complex method of examination has been developed suitable for the qualification of light stabilizers; by this method, according to experience, the efficacy of HALS compounds can be extensively and expediently characterized.Several light stabilizers of the HALS-type were examined and qualified, used alone or together with a UV-absorber.It has been found that, when selecting the appropriate structure for a given polymer, the weatherability of polyolefine foils is effectively increase to six-eightfold; the increase is even tenfold when the stabilizer is combined with a benzophenone-type compound.As a utilization of these experiences, a contract with the industry, led to the production of an LDPE based agricultural foil with a life-time of several years.

    Notes: Natural hail impact tests are scarcely available because hailstorms are limited to a small area and cannot be predicted regarding time, place and intensity. Therefore we relied on laboratory tests simulating natural hailstones by polyamide balls (5-50 mm dia.) whose final velocity could be varied according to meteorological data. So the influence of diameter (weight) and velocity of the artificial hailstones could be taken into consideration independently.The energy of damage or equivalent natural hailstone diameter were determined for 16 mm double skin sheet from PMMA as 0.2 J (14 mm dia.) for star shaped cracks and 2 J (26 mm dia.) for holes. These values do not significantly decrease after 10 years weathering. 10 mm double skin sheets from PC show an extremly high energy of damage of abt. 10 J (38 mm dia.) which decreases to a medium level of 2 J (26 mm dia.) after several years weathering. This decrease is remarkably reduced by weather resistant protective coating.As hailstorms consist to more than 80% of hailstones below 10 mm dia. (0.04 J) the mentioned sheet materials are quite hail resistant also after long weathering periods, but they cannot withstand an extreme hail catastrophe as in Munich July 12, 1984.

    Description / Table of Contents: An Folien (Dicke 100 pm) aus isotaktischem Polypropylen mit verschiedenen Antioxidansgehalten (0,0% bis 0,1%) wird die thermooxidative Alterunq mit der isothermen Langzeit-Differential-Thermo-Analyse (ILDTA) bis zu Temperaturen weit unter dem Kristallitschmelzbereich verfolqt und die Messwerte mit Ergebnissen aus dem Zeitstand-Zugversuch korreliert. Dabei zeigt sich, daß aus Messunqen mit der ILDTA bereits vor Einsetzen der autokatalytischen Zersetzunq sreaktion Ruckschlüsse auf die thermische Vorqeschichte der Proben und Aussagen auf das rnit einem Abfall der mechanischen Eigenschaften verbundene Ende der thermo-oxidativen Stabilität des Polymeren getroffen werden können.Weiters bietet die ILDTA die Moglichkeit, durch den direkten Zusamenhang zwischen Oxidationszeit und Antioxidansögehalt die örtliche Stabilisatorverteilung in Platten und in Folien zu bestimmen und damit Diffusionsvorqange zu verfolgen.
    Notes: Thermo-oxidative ageing processes were investigated in films (100 μm thick) made from isotactic polypropylene with different antioxidant concentrations between 0% and 0.1% using isothermal long-term differential thermal analysis (ILDTA). The end of the oven life of polypropylene coincided with the loss of mechanical properties which was confirmed by tensile tests at temperatures far below the crystallite melting range. Already prior to the beginning of autocatalytic decomposition, ILDTA experiments permits conclusions to be drawn on the thermal history of the specimens and statements made regarding the end of thermo-oxidative stability of the polymer, which is accompanied by a deterioration in the mechanical properties.In consequence of the correlation between oxidation time and antioxidant concentration the local antioxidant concentration in sheets or films can be measured by ILDTA. Thus, investigating the diffusion of an antioxidant in polypropylene using ILDTA is possible.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Größenverteilungsfunktion von Dispersionen mit extrem breiter Verteilung (Durchmesserbereich 20 〈 D 〈 2000 nm) kann in der analytischen Ultrazentrifuge (AUC) nicht durch eine Standardmethode, z. B. durch Messung der Trübung τ bei einer einzigen Konzentration, bestimmt werden, weil sich die spezifische Trübung τ/c von sehr kleinen und sehr großen Teilchen zu stark unterscheidet. Um dieses Problem zu lösen, haben wir eine neue AUC-Technik, die sogenannte Coupling-PSD-Technik entwickelt. Dabei werden zwei unterschiedliche Konzentrationen derselben Dispersion gleichzeitig in einem einzigen AUC-Lauf vermessen und zwei korrespondierende Lichtintensitiit-Zeit-Kurven aufgezeichnet. Bei einer niedrigen Standardkonzentration cs werden hauptsachlich die größeren Teilchen erfaßt während bei einer 5 bis 30 mal heheren Konzentration ch vor allem die kleineren Teilchen registriert werden. Die beiden I(t)-Kurven werden mathematisch verkniipft und unter Verwendung des Stokeschen Gesetzes und der Streutheorie von Mie für homogene isotrope Kugeln in die gesuchte breite Verteilungsfunktion umgerechnet. Wir benutzen eine mit einem 8-Zellen-Rotor und einem Multiplexer ausgestattete AUC. Da sehr groBe und sehr kleine Teilchen gleichzeitig in einem einzigen Zentrifugenlauf bestimmt werden, kennen wir nicht mehr wie zuvor eine konstante Rotorgeschwindigkeit N anwenden, sondern miissen diese mit Hilfe eines Geschwindigkeitsprogramms N(t) innerhalb einer Stunde von 0 auf 40000 U/min erhehen.
    Notes: The particle size distribution (PSD) of extremely broad distributed dispersions (diameter range 20 〈 D 〈 2000 nm) is not possible to be measured by analytical ultracentrifuge (AUC) using the standard technique, i.e. measuring turbidity τ at a single concentration c, because the specific turbidity τ/c varies too much between very small and very large particles. To solve this problem we have developed a new AUC technique, the so-called Coupling-PSD-Technique. Here two different concentrations of the same dispersion are measured simultaneously by one single AUC run with two corresponding curves of light intensity I vs. time t being registered. At a low standard concentration cs, mainly the larger particles are detected, while at a concentration ch 5 to 30 times higher mainly the smaller particles are registered. Both I(t)-curves are coupled mathematically and transformed into the requested broad distribution curve employing Stokes' law and Mie's light scattering theory for homogeneous isotropic spheres.We use an AUC together with an 8-cells-rotor and a multiplexer. Because very large and very small particles are to be measured simultaneously in one single run, we can no more apply a constant rotor speed N as before, but by means of a time program N(t) we always have to increase the rotor speed from 0 to 40000 rpm within one hour.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die chemische Modifizierung von Polyvinylchlorid (PVC) durch ein Amin verleiht dem Polymeren höhere Reaktivität gegenüber der Pfropfcopolymerisation mit einem Vinylmonomeren. Die Pfropfcopolymerisation von Methylmethacrylat auf mit n-Butylamin modifiziertes PVC wurde thermisch mit Benzoylperoxid (Bz2O2) als Initiator oder photoaktiviert mit Benzophenon (BP) als Photosensibilisator gestartet. Das aus bestimmten Experimenten erhaltene rohe Polymerprodukt wurde durch fraktionierte Fällung in die verschiedenen Bestandteile wie Polymethylmethacrylat (PMMA, Homopolymeres), PVC-g-PMMA (Pfropfcopolymeres) und unverändertes (aminiertes) PVC aufgespalten. Die getrennten Fraktionen wurden mit Hilfe der IR-Spektroskopie und der Thermogravimetrie charakterisiert. Der Mechanismus der Pfropfcopolymerisation von den beiden verschiedenen Systemen wurde erörtert. In beiden Fällen wurden Pfropfausbeuten um 30 - 70%* und Pfropfcopolymerzusammensetzungen, PMMA/PVC (w/w) zwischen 2 und 3 erhalten.
    Notes: Chemical modification of poly(vinyl chloride), PVC, by an amine renders the polymer more reactive towards graft copolymerization with a vinyl monomer. The graft copolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) on PVC modified by treatment with n-butylamine (n-BA) was started thermally at 30° using benzoyl peroxide (Bz2O2) as initiator and under photoactivation at 40° using benzophenone (BP) as photo sensitizer. The gross polymer products from selected experiments were fractionally separated into the constituent polymeric entities viz., poly(methyl methacrylate), PMMA (homopolymer), PVC-g-PMMA (graft copolymer), and unreacted (aminated) PVC following a method of fractional precipitation. The separated fractions were characterized by IR spectroscopy and thermogravimetry. The mechanisms of graft copolymerization for the two different systems have been discussed. In each case, grafting efficiencies of the order of 30-70% and graft copolymers having compositions given as PMMA/PVC (w/w) equal to 2-3 were readily obtained.

    Description / Table of Contents: Eine Reihe oberflächensulfonierter, makroporöser Styrol-Divinylbenzol-Copolymerer mit unterschiedlichen Gehalten an SO3H-Gruppen wurden hergestellt. Sowohl von diesen Copolymeren als auch vom nichtsulfonierten Copolymeren wurden Porenstruktur, Oberflächenhydrophilie und -polarität sowie das Sorptionsverhalten gegenüber einigen in Blut vorkommenden Substanzen bestimmt. Der Sorptionsgrad wird umso kleiner, je größer die Oberflächenpolarität ist. Die teilsulfonierten Polymeren könnten eine Anwendung in der Hämoperfusion finden.
    Notes: A series of surface sulphonated macroporous styrene-divinylbenzene (S-DVB) copolymers containing various amounts of  - SO3H groups was obtained. Porous structure, surface hydrophilicity and polarity, and sorption properties of these copolymers as well as those of starting S-DVB resin towards some substances which are present in blood were determined. The sorption degree becomes the smaller the higher is the surface polarity. The partially sulphonated copolymers may find an application in hemoperfusion.

    Description / Table of Contents: Bei der Herstellung dünner Filme von sulfonierten Polyphenylenoxid/Polysulfon (SPPO/PS)-Composit-Membranen wurde untersucht, daß ein Zusatz von Nitromethan zu einer Lösung von sulfoniertem Polyphenylenoxidnatrium erhöhte Wirkung auf die Trenncharakteristik der inversen Osmose besitzt. Der Einfluß von gamma-Strahlung auf dünne Filme der Composit-Membran unter nassen und trockenen Bedingungen wurde ebenfalls untersucht. Um die maximal mögliche Verbesserung zu erreichen, wurden die Composit-Membranen einer kombinierten chemischen und Gammastrahlen-Behandlung unter nassen und trockenen Bedingungen unterworfen.Die experimentellen Ergebnisse dieser kombinierten Behandlung zeigen, dalß die SPPO/PS Composit-Membran dabei abgebaut wird.
    Notes: The enhancement effect of the addition of nitromethane into the coating solution of sulfonated sodium poly(phenylene oxide) (SPPONa) polymer for the synthesis of sulfonated poly(phenylene oxide)/polysulfone (SPPO/PS) thin film composite membranes on reverse osmosis (RO) separation characteristic was studied. The effect of gamma-ray irradiation on the SPPO/PS thin film composite membranes was also evaluated when the membrane samples were in the wet and dry conditions. The composite membranes were also subjected to a chemical treatment combined with gamma-ray irradiation in both wet and dry conditions in the hope of obtaining the maximum possible enhancement under each treatment. However, the experimental data of this combined treatment indicated the possibility of some degradation of the SPPO/PS composite membranes.

    Description / Table of Contents: Methylmethacrylat (MMA) wurde mit Hilfe von Cerammoniumnitrat als Initiator auf Stärke gepfropft. Die Pfropfcopolymeren wurden durch selektive Lösungsextraktion in einem Soxhlet-Extraktor isoliert. Der Einfluß von Reaktionszeit, Initiatorkonzentration, Temperatur sowie der Monomer- und Särekonzentration auf die Pfropfausbeute wurde untersucht. Eine erste Studie der Kinetik dieser Pfropfcopolymerisationsreaktion zeigt, daß sie dem üblichen kinetischen Verhalten einer Radikalpolymerisation folgt.
    Notes: Methyl methacrylate (MMA) was grafted onto starch using ceric ammonium nitrate as initiator. The graft copolymers were isolated by selective solvent extraction in a Soxhlet apparatus. The effects of reaction time, initiator concentration, temperature, monomer, and acid concentrations on the graft yields were investigated. A preliminary kinetic study of the graft copolymerisation reactions shows that they follow the conventional kinetic behaviour of free radical polymerisation.

    Description / Table of Contents: Durch Verwendung von Phenol-Formaldehyd-Harz mit gepreßten Olivenkenen im Gewichtsverháltnis 20/80 wurden kleine zylindrische Formkörper durch Härtung hergestellt. Diese wurden pyrolysiert und einige Proben mit Wasserdampf aktiviert. Für diese Formkörper und für zwei kommerzielle Aktivkohlen für Laboratoriumsbzw. Industrie-Anwendungen wurden folgende Eigenschaften bestimmt: die spezifische Oberfláche, die Struktur, die Adsorptionseigenschaften sowie die Adsorptionskapazität. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, daß die hergestellten kohlenstoffhaltigen Materialien durch Aktivierung höhere Werte für die untersuchten Eigenschaften ergeben als die nur pyrolysierten Proben und die zwei kommerziellen Aktivkohlen. Es wurde festgestellt, daß die Adsorption des 4-Nitrophenols für alle untersuchten kohlenstoffhaltigen Materialien gemäß der Freundlich-Gleichung stattfindet. Die Raster-Elektronenmikroskopie zeigt, daß die hergestellten kohlenstoffhaltigen Materialien andere Porenarten aufweisen als die kommerziellen Aktivkohlen. Die experimentellen Ergebnisse werden durch die molekularen Dimensionen der zur Adsorption verwendeten Substanzen und den Polarisationseffekt der Substituenten am Benzolring erklärt.
    Notes: Mixtures of phenol-formaldehyde-resin and pressed olive stones in a weight ratio of 20/80 were cured as small cylinders and then pyrolyzed. Some samples were also activated by steam. For these specimens and for two commercial activated carbons of laboratory or industrial uses the specific surface area, the structure, the adsorption properties, and the adsorption capacity were determined. The results indicate that the carbonaceous material produced by activation has greater values for the examined properties in comparison to the only pyrolyzed and the two commercial activated carbons, respectively. It was found that the Freundlich-equation is valid for the adsorption of 4-nitrophenol on all carbonaceous materials examined. The produced carbonaceous materials have different kinds of pores than the commercial activated carbons. The experimental results are explained with regard to the molecular dimensions of the adsorptive substances and the polarization effect of the substituents of the benzene ring.

    Description / Table of Contents: The condensation reaction of bisphenol A, melamine, and formaldehyde was investigated by gel permeation chromatography, 13C-NMR-spectroscopy, IR-spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Because of the high reaction rates the condensation could be investigated only in the range of pH 6-10. At pH 6 and 7 the reaction of melamine with formaldehyde is dominating.With increasing pH-value the condensation of bisphenol A with formaldehyde is observed preferably. At pH 10 the condensation results in high molecular products. Cocondensation of melamine and bisphenol A through methylene bridges does not take place. But as a separation of the bisphenol A-formaldehyde condensates from the other condensation products was not possible, the three components may be connected through methylene-ether groups and/or intermolecular hydrogen bridges.
    Notes: Die gemeinsame Kondensation von Bisphenol A, Melamin und Formaldehyd wurde mit Hilfe der Gelpermeationschromatographie, der 13C-NMR-Spektroskopie, IR-Spektroskopie und Elementaranalyse untersucht. Wegen der hohen Kondensationsgeschwindigkeit verläuft die Reaktion in Gegenwart der drei Komponenten nur im Bereich von pH 6-10 kontrollierbar. Bei pH 6 und 7 überwigt die Kondensation zwischen Melamin und Formaldehyd. Mit steigendem pH-Wert tritt die Reaktion von Bisphenol A mit Formaldehyd in den Vordergrund und führt bei pH 10 zu hochmolekularen Kondensationsprodukten.Auf direkte Cokondensation hinweisende Methylenverknüpfungen zwischen der phenolischen Komponente und Melamin konnten nicht nachgewiesen werden. Die Kondensationsprodukte des Melamins bzw. des Bisphenol A mit Formaldehyd lassen sich aber nicht mehr vollständig aus den Reaktionsgemischen der Vorkondensation abtrennen, was dafür spricht, daß die Komponenten über Methylenetherbrücken und/oder intermolekularen Wasserstoffbrücken miteinander verknüpft sind.

    Notes: Cyclodextrin membrane-modified electrodes as sensor materials have been prepared by dipping platinum electrodes in the water suspensions of an oriented cyclodextrin polymer, followed by drying the polymer layers on the electrodes. The polymer is obtained by the solid-liquid reaction between the crystal of cyclodextrin inclusion complex and hexamethylene diisocyanate in anisole. The thickness (2 - 80 μm) of the cyclodextrin membrane is satisfactorily controlled by changing the concentration of the water suspension of the polymer. The cyclodextrin membranemodified electrodes show a significant response to p-nitrophenolate in water which is highly in contrast with no measurable response to o- and m-nitrophenolates.

    Description / Table of Contents: Im Zusammenhang mit dem Studium des Wirkungsmechanismus von industriell hergestellten Antidegradantien vom Typus der N-Phenyl-N′-sek-alkyl-1,Cphenylendiamine wurde die Reaktion von N-Phenyl-1,4-benzochinonimin (I) und 4-Hydroxydiphenylamin (II) mit dem Kohlenstoff-Radikal 1-Cyano-l-methylethyl (R·) studiert. Das Gemisch von I und II reagiert mit R· sehr leicht unter Bildung der Verbindungen III, VI und VIII. I allein reagiert wesentlich langsamer, und das Reaktionsgemisch enthält mehrere Produkte. Neben der Verbindung III wurden auch die Verbindungen IV und VII identifiziert. II allein reagiert bei denselben Bedingungen nicht. Die Verbindung IV bildet die zwei isomeren Strukturen syn und anti. Die Verbindung VIII ist ziemlich unbeständig; aus ihren Umwandlungsprodukten wurde XI isoliert. Bei der Reduktion von IV entsteht die Verbindung V, die ähnlich wie VIII unbeständig ist.
    Notes: The reaction of N-phenyl-1,4-benzoquinoneimine (I)Decoding of abbreviations see p. 103/104. and 4-hydroxydiphenylamine (II) with the carbon centred 1-cyano-1-methylethyl radical (R·) was studied in connection with an investigation of the action mechanism of industrial antidegradants, such as N-phenyl-N′-sec-alkyl-1,4-phenylenediamines. The mixture of I and II reacts very readily with R·, giving rise to III, VI, and VIII. I alone reacts much slowlier, and the reaction mixture contains more products. IV and VII were identified along with III. Under the conditions used, II alone does not react at all. IV exists in two isomeric forms, syn and anti. VIII is very labile; XI was isolated from its transformation products. Reduction of IV gives V, which is labile, similarly to VIII.

    Description / Table of Contents: Samples of polyoxymethylene (unstabilized and stabilized with the antiozonants N-isopropyl-N′-phenyl-p-phenylenediamin (IPPD) and bis-(1,2,3,6-tetrahydrobenzaldehyd)pentaerithritylacetal (Vulkazon AFS)) were ozonized under mechanical load in a special climate chamber. Surface damages were determined by IR-spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. During the ozonolysis a damaged layer is formed, the thickness of which increases with increasing time of ozonization. During this damaging reaction acetal groups are attacked and oligomers are formed.
    Notes: Proben von unstabilisiertem und mit den Antiozonantien N-Isopropyl-N′-phenyl-p-phenylendiamin (IPPD) und Bis-(1,2,3,6-tetrahydrobenzaldehyd)-pentaerithrityl-acetal (Vulkazon AFS) stabilisiertem Polyoxymethylen wurden unter mechanischer Belastung in einer Klimakammer ozonisiert. Die Schädigungen auf der Oberfläche wurden IR-spektroskopisch und rasterelektronenmikroskopisch untersucht. Während der Ozonisierung von POM bildet sich eine geschädigte Schicht, deren Dicke mit zunehmender Ozonisierungszeit wächst. Hierbei wird das Polymere an den Acetalbindungen angegriffen, wodurch Ketten gespalten werden und Oligomere entstehen.

    Description / Table of Contents: Mit Hilfe verschiedener Methoden wurde der Einfluß der Entfernung unterschiedlicher porenbildender Verdünner aus porösen Styrol-Ethylstyrol-Acrylnitril-Divinylbenzol-Copolymeren auf die Netzwerkstruktur untersucht. Der günstigste Weg, den ursprünglichen strukturellen Bau des porösen Netzwerkes zu bewahren, welches in Gegenwart von solvatisierenden Verdünnern erhalten wurde, ist das Entfernen des inerten Mediums mit Methanol. Wenn die Wasserdampfmethode angewendet wird, fin det der sog. Kollapseffekt statt, und die aus solchen Harzen hergestellten Anionenaustauscher adsorbieren weniger Farbstoff im Vergleich zu jenen, die aus Perlen hergestellt worden sind, die mit Methanol behandelt wurden; Grund hierfür ist die durch den Kollaps veränderte Porengröße. Es wurde ebenfalls festgestellt, daß die in Anwesenheit von solvatisierenden Verdünnern (Mischungen aus Quellungs- und Fällmitteln) hergestellten Copolymeren in Methanol sehr gut quellen, obwohl dieses ein Fällungsmittel für Polystyrol ist.
    Notes: The influence of the removal of various diluents, pore forming agents from the porous styrene-ethylstyrene-acrylonitrile-divinylbenzene copolymers on the structure of the matrix was investigated by several methods. The most advantageous pathway to preserve the initial structural edifice of the porous networks performed in the presence of solvating diluents consisted in the removal of the inert media with methanol as it was noticed from the experimental data. If the steam treatment is applied, the collapse effect takes place and the anion exchangers prepared from such matrices exchange/adsorb less dye stuff by comparison with ones formed from beads treated with methanol, because the pore size was changed. It was also noticed that the porous copolymers performed in the presence of the solvating diluents (mixtures of solvatings and precipitants) swell very well in methanol though it is a precipitating medium for the polystyrenic macromolecular chains.

    Description / Table of Contents: An Styrol-Zinkacrylat-Copolymeren wurde die Abhängigkeit der Glasübergangstemperatur von der Aufheizgeschwindigkeit und der Zusammensetzung mit Hilfe der Differential-Scanning-Calorimetrie untersucht. Die Thermogravimetrie wurde benutzt, um die Pyrolyse dieser Copolymeren an Luft bei drei verschiedenen Aufheizge-schwindigkeiten zu untersuchen. Die thermische Zersetzung von Ionomeren ist ein 3-Stufen-Prozeß. Die Reaktionsordnung und Aktivierungsenergie wurde für jede Stufe der Zersetzung bestimmt unter Verwendung eines Computerprogramms, das auf den Methoden von Kissinger, Freeman-Carrol und Ozawa basiert. Es zeigte sich, daß die thermische Stabilität durch die ionischen Gruppen abnimmt.
    Notes: The dependence of glass temperature on the heating rate and the composition for styrene-zinc acrylate copolymers has been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. Thermogravimetry was used in order to examine these copolymers undergoing pyrolysis in an atmosphere of air at three different heating rates. Thermal decomposition of ionomers is a three-stage process. The orders and activation energies have been determined for each stage of decomposition using the computer programs based on the methods of Kissinger, Freeman-Carrol, and Ozawa. It was found that the heat stability is lowered by the ionic groups.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Pfropfung der hydrophilen Monomeren N-Vinylpyrrolidon, 2-Hydroxyethyl-methacrylat und Acrylamid auf ungesättigte segmentierte Polyurethane in N,N-Dimethylformamid mit 2,2′-Azobisisobutyronitril als Initiator wurde untersucht. Die Pfropfcopolymeren wurden von den Homopolymeren durch selektive Extraktion in Soxhlet-Apparaturen abgetrennt. Die kinetische Untersuchung der Pfropfcopolymerisation zeigte, daß die Reaktionen dem gewöhnlichen kinetischen Verhalten radikalischer Polymerisationen folgen. Die Abhängigkeiten der Pfropfungsgeschwindigkeit von der Initiator- und N-Vinylpyrrolidonkonzentration waren von 0,5 bzw. 1,0 Ordnung. Für 2-Hydroxyethylmethacrylat wurden sie zu jeweils 0,5 und 2,0 gefunden. Die Gesamtaktivierungsenergie der Pfropfcopolymerisation des 2-Hydroxyethylmethacrylats und des N-Vinylpyrrolidons betragen jeweilig 21,81 und 16,28 kJ/mol.
    Notes: Grafting of unsaturated segmented polyurethanes with some hydrophilic monomers such as N-vinyl pyrrolidone, 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate and acrylamide in N,N-dimethylformamide have been studied using 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as initiator. Graft copolymers were isolated from homopolymers by selected solvent extraction using a Soxhlet apparatus. A kinetic study of graft copolymerization reactions showed that the reactions follow the conventional kinetic behaviour of free radical polymerization. The dependencies of the grafting rate on initiator and N-vinyl pyrrolidone concentrations were of 0.5 and 1.00 order, respectively. However, for the 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate, the dependencies of the grafting rate on initiator and monomer concentrations were found to be of 0.5 and 2.00 order, respectively. The overall activation energy for the graft copolymerization of the 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate and N-vinyl pyrrolidone were 21.81 kJ/mol and 16.28 kJ/mol, respectively.

    Notes: Ultra fine particles were impregnated by using a finely porous cellulose gel membrane. The impregnated gel membrane is a green transparent one and looks like a solid solution. Highly dispersed Ni catalysts on carbon were obtained from thermal decomposition of these gel membranes. The particle size is in the range of several nm to a few ten nm. They show interesting catalytic properties for hydrogenation of olefins such as cyclooctadiene.

    Description / Table of Contents: An Proben aus Polypropylen, die bei sehr unterschiedlichen Einstellungen von Spritzgußmaschinen und Extrudern hergestellt wurden, stellten sich deutliche Abhängigkeiten des Alterungsverhaltens von den thermischen und mechanischen Produktionsparametern ein, die nicht durch unterschiedliche Schmelzetemperaturen bedingt sind. Insbesondere kann ausgesagt werden, daß bei Spritzguß eine hähere Scherbelastung und damit stärkere Orientierungen -eine stärkere Veränderung der Eigenspannungen hervorrufen-einen früheren Glanzabfall und-eine geringere Initialzeit bis zur Rißbildung bewirken.Bei Extrusion fiihrt eine geringere Abkühlgeschwindigkeit und damit ein gröberes Gefüge zu -einer stärkeren Veränderung der Eigenspannungen-einem friiheren und ausgeprägteren Glanzverlust-sowie zu einem früheren Abfall der Reißdehnungen.Unbekannt ist, -ob diese Wirkungen auch bei anderen Thermoplasten als PP auftreten-ob sie auch bei stabilisierten Systemen in relativ gleichem Umfange auftreten-und ob es sich lohnt, die beobachteten Effekte ggf. durch ge zielte Maschineneinstellungen auszunutzen.Auf jeden Fall sollten auf diesem Gebiet weitere Arbeiten durchge-führt werden.
    Notes: Specimens of unmodified polypropylene have been manufactured using extreme adjustings of injection moulding machines and extruders. After artificial weathering, distinct relations of ageing processes to thermal and mechanical production parameters were found, which are not influenced by different melting temperatures. It can be started in particular, that during injection moulding a larger shear stress (resulting in more distinct orientation) results in -a greater change in residual stresses-an earlier gloss reduction-a shorter initial period before cracking.During extrusion a lower cooling rate (resulting in a coarser structure) leads to -a greater change in residual stresses-an earlier and more distinct gloss reduction-an earlier loss of ultimate strain.It remains unknown, whether -these relationships will be similar with other thermoplastic materials than PP-these relationships appear to the same relative extend with stabilized systems-it may be advantageous, to use the observed effects by adjusting the injection moulding and extrusion machines in a special way.It seems to be significant to do more research work in this field.

    Description / Table of Contents: Poly(tetramethylenadipat)diol mit einer Molmasse von 2000 wurde bei Temperaturen von 60 und 80°C in Gegenwart von Wasser bzw. 1,4-Butandiol sowie den gebräuchlichsten PUR-Katalysatoren (Dabco und Dibutylzinndilaurat) gelagert und die Solvolyse untersucht. Die Geschwindigkeit der Solvolyse nimmt mit steigender Temperatur deutlich zu. Die Alkoholyse wird durch Dibutylzinndilaurat weitaus stärker katalysiert als durch 1,4-Diazabicyclo[2.2.2]oktan. Die Hydrolyse verläuft langsamer, da vermutlich die Katalysatoren bei diesem Prozeß desaktiviert werden. Die mechanischen Eigenschaften von Polyurethanen, die mit den partiell abgebauten Diolen hergestellt wurden, korrelieren gut mit der Abnahme der Molmasse.
    Notes: Poly(tetramethylene adipate)diol having a molar mass of 2000 was stored at temperatures of 60 and 80°C in the presence of water or 1,4-butanediol and a common PUR-catalyst like 1,4-diazabicyclo [2.2.2]octane (DABCO) or dibutyltindilaurate (DBTL) and the solvolysis was investigated. The rate of solvolysis is low at 60°C except for DBTL and shows a drastic increase at 80°C. In the alcoholysis reaction DBTL is a much more active catalyst than DABCO. The rate of hydrolysis is slower probably because the catalysts are deactivated by the acidic products formed in this process. The mechanical properties of polyurethanes made from the degraded polyols are in good correlation with the decrease in molar mass.

    Description / Table of Contents: Der Einfluß der Zugabe von Bis(allylphenyl) Typ (TM 120)-Monomeren auf die Eigenschaften von unidirektional mit Carbonfasern verstärkten 4,4′-Bismaleimidodiphenylmethan (BM) - 2,4-Tolylendiamin (A) (1:0,3 Molverhältnis) (BM-A)-Verbundkörpern wird vorgestellt. Das Aushärteverhalten sowie das thermische Verhalten in Luft wurde mit Hilfe der Differentialkalorimetrie (DSC) und der Thermogravimetrie (TGA) untersucht. Die thermische Stabilität nimmt mit ansteigenden Konzentrationen von TM 120 deutlich zu. Demgegenüber steht ein Anstieg der Biegefesigkeit, der interlaminaren Scherfestigkeit sowie der Schlagzähigkeit mit zunehmender Monomerkonzentration. Optimale mechanische Eigenschaften wurden bei etwa 20 Tle./100 Tle. TM 120 erreicht.
    Notes: The paper deals with the effect of addition of bis(allylphenyl) type (TM 120) monomer on the properties of unidirectionally carbon fibre reinforced 4,4′ bismaleimidodi-phenyl methane (BM) - 2,4-tolylene diamine (A) (1:0.3 molar ratio) (BM-A) composites. The curing and thermal behaviour of the blends was investigated by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) in air atmosphere. A marginal decrease in thermal stability was observed with increasing concentration of TM 120. Flexural, interlaminar, and impact strength of the laminates increased in the presence of this monomer. Optimum mechanical properties were observed at ∼ 20 phr of TM 120.

    Description / Table of Contents: In dieser Arbeit wurden Veränderungen des verschweisßten Rohr- und Fittingmaterials (isotaktisches Polypropylen Homo- bzw. Copolymer PP-R grau pigmentiert) wührend der für die Praxis relevanten Innendruckversuche untersucht.Bei der technischen Verschweißung von Polyolefinen entstehen charakteristische Gefüigezonen im Schweißnahtbereich, welche vom Fßgematerial und den Fngebedingungen beeinflußt werden. In der vorliegenden Untersuchung wurden sowohl die Materialcbergange im Fiigebereich (mit den Methoden - schichtenweise Differentialkalorimetrie, Polarisations- bzw. Elektronenmikroskopie sowie Fluoreszenzspektroskopie mit extrem hoher Ortsauflösung) als auch die Eigenspannungen hinsichtlich ihrer Verlnderung bei Langzeitpriifung im Innendruckzeitstandversuch bei 95°C bis zu einer Prüfzeit von 18.100h untersucht.Die Abbauvorgänge der Makromoleküle bei der Langzeitprüfung der 364 untersuchten Schweißmuster werden in einer gesonderten Arbeit behandelt (1).Durch die Innendruckversuche bei 950 C findet eine Nachkristallisation und eine Gefügevergrijberung sowohl in der Schweißnaht als auch im Gefüge der Schweißpartner statt. Dabei werden die beim Schweißvorgang eingebrachten Orientierungen und Eigenspannungen unter dem Einfluß von Wärme beim Innendruckversuch weitgehend abgebaut. Durch die unter Druckeinwirkung einsetzenden Flieävorgange jedoch werden neue Eigenspannungen eingebracht.Es konnte gezeigt werden, daß bei guter Verschweißung von PP mit PPCO ein kontinuierlicher Übergang (Mischungsbereich) vom Homopolymeren zum Copolymeren auftritt, der auch beim Langzeiteinsatz im Innendruckversuch erhalten bleibt.
    Notes: The present study deals with changes of welded material of pipes and fittings (isotactic polypropylene homo and copolymer PP-R grey pigmented) during the standardized internal pressure tests, which are commonly used for these products.Technical welding of polyolefines causes characteristic structures, which depend on the natural of the welded material and the welding conditions.In this investigation both the transition of material in the welding seam and the changes of internal stresses during internal pressure tests at 95°C until 18.100h test time were examined. The methods we used were Differential calorimetry of think layers, Polarization- and Electron microscopy, Fluorescence spectroscopy with extreme high local resolution.The effects of decomposition of the macromolecules in the welded samples during the internal pressure tests will be described in a separate paper (1).The internal pressure tests at 95O C cause a recrystallization and an increase of the particle size in the structure of the welding seam and in the structure of the welded parts themselves. Under the above described testing conditions the orientations and internal stresses initiated by the welding procedure will relaxe influenced by heat. However the creep effects that occur in the material when exposed to pressure introduce new internal stresses. It could be shown that in perfectly welded parts a continuous transition from PP to PPCO occurs, which did not change after long time application of internal pressure tests.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wurden neue Coordinationspolymere mit Schiffschen Basen aus Terephthalal dehyd und S-Benzyldithiocarbazol als Liganden in DMF-Lösung hergestellt. Die erhaltenen Coordinationspolymeren wurden durch Elementaranalyse, magnetische Suszeptibilität, elektronische und IR-Spektroskopie charakterisiert. Die durch Thermogravimetrie bestimmte thermische Stabilität der Coordinationspolymeren nahm in der folgenden Reihenfolge ab: \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}${\rm Zn} \simeq {\rm Fe} 〉 {\rm Co} 〉 {\rm Ni} 〉 {\rm Min} \simeq {\rm Cu}$\end{document} Mn(II)-, Fe(II)-, Co(II)- und Ni(II)-Coordinationspolymere haben eine Oktaederstruktur mit der Koordinationszahl6, während bei den Cu(II)- und Zn(II)-Coordinationspolymeren eine 4-fach koordinierte quadratisch-planare bzw. eine tetraedrische Struktur gefunden wurde. Ligandenfeld- und nephelawetische Parameter wurden aus den Spektren errechnet. Dam wurde die Ligandenfeldtheorie spin-erlaubter Übergänge angewandt, die sich als konsistent mit einer 6-fach koordinierten Struktur für Mn(II)-, Fe(II)-, Co(II)- und Ni(II)-Coordinationspolymere erwies. Die Elementaranalysen ergaben bei allen Coordinationspolymeren ein Ligand: Metall-Verhältnis von 1 : 1 und deuteten bei den Mn(II)-, Fe(II)-, Co(II)- und Ni(II)-Coordinationspolymeren auf am Zentralatom assoziierte Wassermoleküle hin.
    Notes: New Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) coordination polymers of Schiff base ligand derived from terephthalaldehyde and S-benzyldithiocarbazate have been synthesized in DMF media. The coordination polymers have been characterized by their elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, and by electronic and infrared spectral measurements.The thermal stability of each polymer was found out by thermogravimetric analysis. The thermal stability of coordination polymers obtained from thermograms has the following order: \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ {\rm Zn} \simeq {\rm Fe} 〉 {\rm Co} 〉 {\rm Ni} 〉 {\rm Min} \simeq {\rm Cu}$\end{document} Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), and Ni(II) coordination polymers are of a six-coordinated octahedral structure while Cu(II) and Zn(II) coordination polymers are found to be four-coordinated square planar and tetrahedral structure, respectively. The ligand-field and nephelauxetic parameters have been determined from the spectra, using ligand-field theory of spin-allowed transitions which are found consistent with six-coordinate structure for Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), and Ni(II) coordination polymers. Elemental analyses indicates a ligand: metal ratio of 1 : 1 in all the coordination polymers and the association of water molecules with central metal atom in case of Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), and Ni(II) coordination polymers.

    Description / Table of Contents: Emulsionen von aromatischen Polyamidsären (PMPE and PBPPM) in DMF und Methanol wurden benutzt, um gleichmäßige Filme auf Leiteroberflächen durch Elektrophorese abzuscheiden. Die Ausbeute und Qualität der abgeschiedenen Filme hängen von der Art der Polyamidsäre, dem Lösemittel, dem Fällungsmittel, dem oberflächenaktiven Mittel, dem pH-Wert und dem Polymergehalt ab. Die Bedingungen zum Erreichen der höchsten Abscheidungsausbeuten wurden bestimmt.
    Notes: The emulsions of aromatic polyamic acids (PMPE and PBPPM) in DMF and methanol were used to coat uniform films on conductor surfaces by electrodeposition. The deposition yield and quality of the deposited films are dependent on sort of polyamic acid, solvent (DMF), precipitant (MeOH), surfactant (TEA), pH value and solid content. To get maximum deposition yields from PMPE and PBPPM, the best conditions of electrodeposition were required as follows: pH value 5.7 and 5.58, MeOH/DMF weight ratio 3.0 and 2.8, solid content 3.5 and 2.4 wt.-%. Deposition yield was found to obey Faraday's law of electrolysis, and the higher the equivalent weight of the polyamic acid, the higher the coulombic yield.

    Description / Table of Contents: Für eine anionische Polymerisation mit langsamer Start- und schneller Wachstumsreaktion wurde ein analytischer Ausdruck entwickelt, der es erlaubt, mittlere Molekulargewichte und Molekulargewichtsverteilungen von Polymeren vorauszuberechnen, die in einem halbkontinuierlichen Polymerisationsverfahren bei Zulauf einer verunreinigten Monomerlösung zu einer vorgelegten Initiatolösung entstehen. Die Gültig keit des Modells wurde an der Polymerisation von Isopren mit n-Butyllithium in n-Heptan überprüft. Die beobachteten Unterschiede zwischen theoretischen und experimentellen Werten werden auf die Änderungen in den Geschwindigkeitskonstanten von Start- und Wachstumsreaktion zurückgeführt, die dadurch hervorgerufen werden, daß sich die Polarität der Lösung durch die Anreicherung mit polaren Verbindungen ändert. Weiterhin wird gezeigt, daß bimodale Molekulargewichtsverteilungen entstehen, wenn sich an die halbkontinuierliche Verfahrensweise eine diskontinuierliche zur Erhöhung des Monomerumsatzes anschließt.
    Notes: For anionic polymerization with slow initiation and rapid propagation step analytical expressions are presented to calculate average molecular weights and molecular weight distributions for a semi-batch process, in which a monomer solution contaminated by impurities is fed to an initiator solution in the reactor. The validity of the model was checked for the case of the polymerization of isoprene by n-butyllithium in n-heptane. The differences observed between theoretical and experimental values are explained by the changes in the rate constants of the initiation and the propagation step caused by the change in the polarity of the reaction solution by the continuously fed impurities. Furthermore it is shown that polymers with bimodal molecular weight distributions are formed if the semi-batch procedure is followed by a batch one to increase the monomer conversion.

    Description / Table of Contents: Durch Copolymerisation von Butylacrylat (BA) mit Vinylbenzylglycidylether (VBGE) wurden neue Acrylkautschuke mit Epoxyseitengruppen hergestellt. Um die Zähigkeit eines gehärteten Epoxidharzes (Bisphenol A/Diglycidylether/p,p′-Diaminodiphenylsulfon) zu erhöhen, wurde dieses mit den erhaltenen Acrylkautschuken modifiziert. Eine Zugabe von 20 Gew.-% eines Copolymeren mit 74% BA und 26% VBGE-Einheiten führte zu einer 30proz. Zunahme der Bruchzähigkeit (KIC) des gehärteten Harzes bei einer minimalen Einbuße an Festigkeit und Steifigkeit. Die modifizierten Harze wiesen eine Zwei-Phasen-Morphologie auf, bei der Kautschukteilchen mit einer mittleren Größe von 2 μm in eine Epoxymatrix eingebettet sind. Das Copolymere ohne Epoxyseitengruppen, das aus BA und Vinylbenzylmethoxyethylether hergestellt wurde, war als Modifier unwirksam, was darauf hindeutet, daß die seitenstándigen Epoxidgruppen zu einer guten Zwischenphasenadhäsion zwischen Kautschukteilchen und Matrix, und damit zu erhöhter Zähigkeit führen. Kautschuke, die 55 oder 86% BA-Einheiten enthielten, waren ebenfalls ungenügende Modifier. Zugabe des ersteren ergab Harze mit einer homogenen Phasenstruktur, während die Zugabe des letzteren zu einer Phasentrennung zwischen Kautschuk und Epoxidharz führte.
    Notes: New acrylic rubbers with a pendant epoxy group were prepared by copolymerization of butyl acrylate (BA) with vinylbenzyl glycidyl ether (VBGE). The modification of an epoxy system (bisphenol-A diglycidyl ether/p,p′-diaminodiphenyl sulfone) with the acrylic rubbers was carried out in order to increase the toughness of the cured epoxy resin. The addition of 20 wt.-% of the copolymer containing 74% of BA and 26% of VBGE units resulted in a 30% increase in the fracture toughness (KIC) of the cured resin at minimal expenses of strength and modulus of the resin. The modified epoxy resin had two-phase morphology in which the rubber particles with average diameter of 2 μm are dispersed in the epoxy matrix. The copolymer without the pendant epoxy group, prepared from BA and vinylbenzyl methoxyethyl ether, was ineffective as a modifier, indicating that the reaction of the pendant epoxide with the epoxy matrix resulted in good interfacial adhesion between the rubber particles and the matrix, and in the increased toughness. The epoxide-containing copolymers with 55 or 86% of BA units were also insufficient modifiers. The addition of the former yielded cured resins with homogeneous structure, whereas that of the latter resulted in macroscopic phase separation between the rubber and the epoxy resin.

    Description / Table of Contents: Lösungen von Polyether/Polyurethan-Kationomeren, die auf Toluoldiisocyanaten basieren, wurden hergestellt und durch Zugabe von Wasser emulgiert. Die Eigenschaften von aus diesen Lösungen und Emulsionen gegossenen Filmen werden mit Hilfe der Infrarot-Spektroskopie, dynamisch-mechanischer Messungen, der Differentialkalorimetrie, der Weitwinkel-Röntgendiffraktometrie und von Zug-Dehnungsmessungen untersucht. Der Einbau eines asymmetrischen, kettenverlängernden Bausteins, wie N-Methyldiethanolamin, führt zu einem Polyurethan (PU), das, ßhnlich wie das mit symmetrischem, kettenverlängerndem 1,4-Butandiol aufgebaute Polyurethan, eine meßbare Ordnung innerhalb der Hartsegmente aufweist. Nach der Quarternisierung mit Glykolsaure haben die PU-Kationomeren erhöhte Werte für Reißdehnung, Zugmodul und -festigkeit. Dies kann auf die Coulomb-Wechselwirkung zwischen benachbarten Hartsegmenten zurückgefiihrt werden. Das Emulgieren der PU-Ionomer-Lösung führt zu einer verstärkten Mischung der Weich-und Hartsegmente, wodurch die ursprünglichen Hartsegmentbereiche mit asymmetrischen 2,4-Urethanisomeren eine höhere Konzentration an 2,6-Isomeren enthalten. Die Hartsegmentbereiche erreichen dadurch höhere Ordnung. Diese erhähte Ordnung und Phasenmischung führt zu einer Verbesserung der mechanischen Eigenschaften. Die Veränderung der Leitfähigkeit und Viskosität wahrend dem Emulgieren zeigt, daß das Wasser zuerst auf der Oberfäche des Mikroionengitters der Hartsegmente adsorbiert wird und dann in die ungeordneten und geordneten Hartsegmentbereiche eindringt.
    Notes: Toluene diisocyanate based polyether polyurethane cationomer solutions are prepared and then emulsified by adding water. Properties of films cast from the solutions and emulsions are studied using infrared spectroscopy, dynamic mechanical analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, wide-angle X-ray diffraction, and tensileelongation testing. It is found that the use of the asymmetric chain extender, N-methyl-diethanolamine, also leads to a polyurethane (PU) with detectable order in the hard domains as in the PU with symmetric chain extender such as 1,4-butandiol. After quaternization with glycolic acid, the PU cationomers have increased elongation and tensile strength and modulus. These can be attributed to the proper Coulomb interaction between two neighboring hard segments. The emulsification of the PU ionomer solution results in an increased mixing between the soft segments and the hard segments with asymmetric 2,4-urethane isomers originally located in the hard domains, and therefore make the hard domains containing a higher concentration of symmetric 2,6-isomer. The hard domains then become more ordered. Such increased order and phase mixing leads to an increase of the three tensile properties. During the emulsification conductivity and viscosity variations show that water is firstly adsorbed on the surface of the hard segment microionic lattices and then enters into the disordered and ordered hard domains successively.

    Notes: The conformational energetics of the tetranucleoside triphosphates d(ApApApA), d(GpGpGpG), d(CpCpCpC), d(TpTpTpT), ApApApA, GpGpGpG, CpCpCpC, and UpUpUpU are thoroughly examined using a classical potential energy function. The sugar modeling method and multiple correlation functions derived in previous papers of this series are utilized in these examinations. The data are analyzed and compared in terms of the energy profiles for rotation about the conformation-determining torsion angles in the tetramers. Overall, the predictions are in reasonable qualitative agreement with the existing experimental data. It is found that the base type does not greatly affect the locations of the important minima in these profiles, but rather exerts a large influence on the relative depths of the minima and the barriers to conversion between them. Conformational sequence dependence is manifest to a greater extent by the DNA tetramers than the RNA tetramers. Of the DNA tetramers, d(CpCpCpC) appears, from the results presented herein, to have the greatest potential for polymorphism. This and other findings are analyzed in terms of the preferences of particular DNA sequences for either the A-, B-, or Z-conformation.

    Notes: A simple graphical method for calculating stoichiometric and site binding constants for systems with two initially equivalent interacting sites is derived from a modified Scatchard equation. The binding constants can be calculated from Scatchard plots (r/[A] as a function of r) using the values of r/[A] (r is the molar ratio of bound ligands to total protein and [A] is the equilibrium concentration of free ligand) when r = 0 and r = 1 (half-saturation). The applicability of the method to the adsorption of bilirubin by peptide pendants immobilized on a polyacrylamide support is demonstrated.

    Notes: The statistical mechanical theory for the helix-to-random-coil transition in two-chain coiled coils is applied to extant data for two synthetic coiled-coil polypeptides. These peptides have the primary structure K(LEALEGK)n, in which n = 4, 5. This repeating heptet sequence mimics the pattern of hydrophobic, acidic, and basic residues characteristic of the 284-residue tropomyosin molecule, the prototypical coiled-coil protein. Theoretical calculations for single chains show that such model peptides cannot be directly compared to proteins like tropomyosin because of differences in chain length (29 and 36 residues vs 284) and in intrachain interactions, the latter caused by the differences in amino acid composition and seqeunce between protein and model. Application of the theory to extant data on the two synthetic peptides provides a semiquantitative fit and results in an assessment of the interhelix interaction in the model peptides. The value obtained, ∼ 2000 cal · (mol of turn pairs)-1, is four to five times larger than has been obtained for tropomyosin. This probably is a result of greater regularity in the structure of the synthetics and of the exclusive presence of leucine in the hydrophobic interface. The theory employed here insists that this powerful interhelix interaction in the synthetic is the principal reason that such short chains can be so highly helical at moderate and low temperatures. Theory predicts, indeed, that a tropomyosin-length chain with a sequence homologous to these synthetics would be completely thermally stable in the entire temperature range accessible in aqueous solutions. Theory also predicts a much more pronounced effect of concentration on the 29- and 36-residue synthetic polymers than is predicted or observed in the case of tropomyosin, and it also predicts a pronounced stabilizing effect of pH-reduction on the thermal curves. On the last two points, sufficient data are not yet available with which to test the theory.

    Notes: A cyclic peptide analogue of somatostatin, including the o-aminomethylphenylacetic acid spacer, was studied by the combined use of two-dimensional nmr spectroscopy, distance geometry, and restrained molecular dynamics. Analysis of distances determined from nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) buildup rates revealed that these were inconsistent with a unique backbone conformation near the spacer. Assuming that the conformational heterogeneity is localized to the spacer, the NOE distances measured for the remaining part of the molecule were used to generate a large number of structures with the distance geometry algorithm, which were then refined by restrained energy minimization. Four classes of structures emerged, which together account for all observed NOEs. A representative structure of each class was further refined with the restrained molecular dynamics technique, and shown to be stable on a 20-ps time scale. The flexibility of the spacer was examined by simulating interconversions induced by an appropriate restraining potential. As a result, the explanation for the lack of somatostatin activity of the analogue studied was reconsidered.

    Notes: A semiempirical theory of saccharide optical activity indicates that the dominant source of NaD rotation is a vacuum-uv CD band near 150 nm, a band observed experimentally in polysaccharide film CD spectra. The model is a modification of polarizability theory in which high-energy electronic excitations are coupled by degenerate perturbation theory, giving rise to “molecular excitons.” The existence of an excitation mode well separated in energy from even higher energy modes arises from the local symmetry of tetrahedral carbon atoms in a puckered ring structure. Calculated NaD rotations correlate well with experimental values.

    Notes: It is demonstrated that protein α-helix content can be predicted from an autocorrelation analysis of the protein hydrophobicity sequence. The Fourier transform of the autocorrelation function yields the spectral densities or weights of the various frequencies contributing to the autocorrelation function. Using sequence and secondary structure data from more than 160 proteins and domains, a linear relationship was found between spectral density at periodicity 3.7 and protein α-helix content (r = 0.83). This relation permits prediction of the helix content (x) of proteins of known sequence to within ± 15%, i.e., as (x ± 15)%. Predictions based on the autocorrelation procedure are compared with values obtained by other methods.

    Notes: Evidence for a helical contribution to the conformation of methylcellulose in dilute solution is given by CD measurements. Congo red binds to methylcellulose in dilute aqueous solution and becomes optically active. The shape of the induced CD spectra is as predicted by exciton coupling for a helical arrangement of chromophores. The magnitude of the induced CD changes reversibly with temperature, decreasing upon heating. The dimer analogue of the polymer, prepared by acid methanolysis, does not show this effect. These observations suggest that the induced optical activity reflects the conformational dissymmetry of the polymer. Analogous experiments with the cellulose oligomers (cellotriose through cellohexaose) show that five anhydroglucose units are necessary before asymmetry is induced upon dye binding.

    Notes: Polarized Raman spectra have been obtained from single microcrystals of the duplex of the decamer d(A5T5)2 using a Raman microscope. This is the first report of Raman spectra from a crystal of a deoxyoligomer that contains only long, nonalternating sequences of adenine and thymine. Sequences containing d(A)n and d(T)n are of interest in view of recent suggestions that they induce bends in DNA and that they might exist in a nonstandard B-conformation. Polarized Raman spectra of a crystal of d(pTpT) have also been obtained. Both crystals display Raman bands whose intensities are very sensitive to the orientation of the crystal with respect to the direction of polarization of the incident laser beam. These spectra indicate that the helical axes of the oligonucleotides are parallel to the long axes of the crystals and that the d(A5T5)2 is not appreciably bent in the crystal. The Raman spectrum from the d(pTpT) crystal indicates that all of the furanose ring puckers are in a C2′-endo configuration since only the C2′-endo marker band at 835 ± 5 cm-1 is present. Crystals of d(A5T5)2 show measurable Raman intensities in both the 838- and 816-cm-1 bands. This indicates the presence of both the C2′-endo and C3′-endo, or possibly other non-C2′-endo, furanose conformations. The 816-cm-1 band is weak so that only a small fraction of the residues are estimated to be in the non-C2′-endo conformation. In both the d(pTpT) and d(A5T5)2 crystals the intensity of the bands due to vibrations of the backbone show only a small dependence on orientation of the crystals. This result is explained by the low symmetry of the puckered sugar rings. It is concluded that Raman spectra obtained from oligonucleotide crystals in which the orientation of the crystal axes to the laser polarization is not carefully controlled may contain intensity artifacts that are due to polarization effects.

    Notes: On the basis of a harmonic dynamics calculation, it is shown that in the 800-500-cm-1 spectral region of DNA vibrational spectra, the characteristic Raman peaks and ir bands do not arise from the same nucleosidic motions. The Raman spectra involve mainly the ring-breathing modes of nucleic bases while the ir spectra reveal essentially their out-of-plane vibrations. Moreover, the calculated results show the splitting of the guanine- and adenine-residue breathing modes upon their coupling with the sugar-pucker motions. This fact is in agreement with the poly[d(G-C)] and poly[d(A-T)] Raman spectra.

    Notes: Two-dimensional 1H-nmr spectra of the α-mating factor [in dimethyl sulfoxide-d6 (DMSO) and in water] and several dodecapeptide analogues (in DMSO) were obtained. Homonuclear correlated spectroscopy resulted in the complete and unequivocal assignment of all backbone and side-chain resonances of the peptides. The solution conformation of the pheromones was probed using two-dimensional (2D) nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) and rotating frame nuclear Overhauer effect spectroscopy (ROESY). The 2D NOE results, and results of complementary one-dimensional experiments, suggest that a type II β-turn is assumed by the central portion of active pheromones in both DMSO and water. Inactive analogues of the α-factor do not exhibit this structural feature. Except for this one β-turn, the nmr parameters for α-factor are indicative of a conformationally flexible molecule in both solvents. This conclusion is in contrast to that of other researchers who have proposed a highly structured conformation of α-factor in aqueous solution.

    Notes: An extensive series of experiments has been performed to study the mobility of DNA fragments ranging in size from 2.0 to 48.5 kilobose pairs. By varying the agarose concentration in the gels and the electric field strength, three DNA electrophoresis regimes were clearly identified: the Ogston regime (small DNA fragments in large pores of agarose), the reptation regime without DNA chain stretching (small pores of agarose and weak electric fields), and the reptation regime with DNA chain stretching (small pores of agarose, strong electric fields, and large DNA fragments). Here we report on the experimental identification of these regimes and on the conditions governing the transition between each of them. The onset of reptation and of stretching of DNA chains in gel electrophoresis are described quantitatively for the first time, and a phase diagram for the dynamics of DNA during electrophoresis is presented.

    Notes: Several amino terminal fragments of the emerimicins (Ac-Phe1-Aib2-Aib3-Aib4-Val5-Gly6-Leu7-Aib8-Aib9-Hyp10-Gln11-D-Iva12-Hyp13-Ala/Aib14-Phol15) ranging in length from five to ten residues have been synthesized. Nuclear magnetic resonance studies have been carried out on the 1-5, 6-10, 1-6, 1-7, 1-8, 1-9, and 1-10 fragments. The number of solvent-shielded NH groups in CDCl3 solutions for 1-5, 1-6, 1-7, 1-8, 1-9, and 1-10 indicate that 310-helical structures are favored in this solvent. In (CD3)2SO, an additional NH group, assigned to Aib(3) NH is solvent exposed in the fragments longer than six residues, suggesting partial unfolding of the N-terminal β-turn or transition to an α-helical conformation. The data for fragment 6-10 are consistent with a conformation having a single Leu-Aib β-turn. Infrared studies suggest an increase in the number of intramolecular hydrogen bonds with increasing peptide chain length. Appreciable mitochondrial uncoupling activity is observed for peptides with a chain length of at least seven residues. The order of efficiencies of the fragments is 1-7 〈 1-8 ∼ 1-10 〈 1-9, with the decapeptide exhibiting anomalously low uncoupling activity.

    Notes: The molecular and crystal structures of three monothiated analogues of the blocked L-Ala-Aib-L-Ala sequence of peptaibol antibiotics, t-Boc-L-Ala-Aib-ψ(CSNH)-L-Ala-OMe, Ac-L-Ala-Aib-ψ(CSNH)-L-Ala-OMe, and Ac-ψ(CSNH)-L-Ala-Aib-L-Ala-OMe, determined by x-ray diffraction analyses, are reported. In all cases the peptide chain is folded with ϕ,ψ angles close to or slightly distorted from those expected for a type II β-bend conformation. However, the 4 → 1 H-bond distance falls within the accepted limits only for Ac-L-Ala-Aib-ψ(CSNH)-L-Ala-OMe. The structures are compared with those already published for their two oxygenated analogues.

    Notes: The folded nature of an intramolecular antiparallel β-sheet suggests that the introduction of this structure into a statistical coil might be accompanied by a contraction of the chain. The magnitude of the contraction, and the conditions that produce the maximum contraction, have been assessed by the combination of generator matrices with an earlier formulation for the configuration partition function. The results show that the mean square dimensions do indeed pass through a minimum upon the transition from a statistical coil to an antiparallel β-sheet. The depth of the minimum is relatively insensitive to the values of δ and τ, provided the assignments are within the physically sensible range. (The borders of the ordered region are assumed to be of higher energy than the interior.) In contrast with the depth of the minimum, the β-sheet content that produces the minimum is quite sensitive to plausible variation in δ and τ. A much greater collapse of the chain can be produced by antiparallel β-sheet formation than that found in the course of the helix-coil transition. The collapse may cause the volume pervaded by the chain to come within an order of magnitude of the volume characteristic of the globular state.

    Notes: The crystal structure of the antitumor antibiotic actinomycin D has been determined by the methods of x-ray crystallography. There are three independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. Two of the molecules form a hydrogen-bonded dimer. The peptides within all three molecules have very similar conformations. The greatest conformational variability in the drug molecules occurs in the torsion angles of the bonds connecting the phenoxazone ring to the peptide rings. The results of this analysis has allowed us to explain the unusual physical properties of ActD as well as to provide an explanation for the thermodynamics of its interactions with DNA.

    Notes: The sedimentation coefficient sN of the DNA topoisomer with the linking number N is evaluated as a function of N and chain length on the basis of a (circular) twisted wormlike chain, i.e., a special case of the helical wormlike chain. Evaluation is carried out by an application of the Oseen-Burgers procedure of hydrodynamics to the cylinder model with the preaveraged Oseen tensor. The necessary mean reciprocal distance between two contour points is obtained by a Monte Carlo method. It is shown that sN increases as |ΔN| is increased from 0 in the range of small |ΔN|, where ΔN = N - N, with N the number of helix turns in the linear DNA chain in the undeformed state. It is found that there is semiquantitative agreement between the Monte Carlo values and the experimental data obtained by Wang for sN.

    Notes: High-resolution 2H-nmr is employed to monitor the D2O in hydrated solids of Li-DNA prepared from solution by three different methods: lyophilization, slow evaporation of the water, and wet spinning in alcohol. From the spectral shapes and spin-spin relaxation measurements, the DNA in the lyophilized samples is found to be locally ordered with a domain size of ∼ 0.4 μm. Much longer range macrosopic ordering is found in samples prepared by slow evaporation of the water. Here the DNA spontaneously assembles into a structure that is probably cholesteric, in which the pitch axis is perpendicular to the plane on which the DNA dried. The wet-spinning method produces macroscopically, uniaxially oriented DNA molecules with a maximum helix axis disorder of 12°. To aid in the comparison between calculated and experimental line shapes, a two-dimensional technique is employed to separate the contributions to the line width arising from DNA static disorder, magnetic inhomogeneities, and spin-spin relaxation.

    Notes: The cation sensitivity of linear and lateral assembly processes of thrombin- and reptilase-activated fibrinogen was examined. Analytic ultracentrifugation shows that the linear assembly of fibrin oligomers (protofibrils) is neither cation dependent nor sensitive to chelating agents. Protofibrils generated with thrombin-hirudin gelate with either 1-2 mM Ca(II) or 15-100 μM Zn(II). By contrast, protofibril B, generated with reptilase-diisopropylfluorophosphonate, gelates only with Ca(II) but is insensitive to Zn(II). These results indicate that the release of fibrinopeptides A and B (FPA and FPB) expose two types of lateral binding sites that are sensitive to Ca(II) and Zn(II) respectively. Transmission electron (TEM) micrographs of negatively stained gels indicate that the linear packing of the monomers within the fibrin- and cation-induced protofibrin fibers is essentially identical. Scanning electron (SEM) micrographs show that the Ca(II)-induced protofibrin B gel is similar to fibrin. In all, it seems that branching and gelation derive from two types of cation-sensitive, lateral associative processes. Based on these findings, a new paradigm for fibrin coagulation is proposed.

    Notes: We used time-dependent fluorescence energy transfer to determine the distribution of donor-to-acceptor distances in native and denatured troponin I(TnI). The single tryptophan residue (Trp 158) of TnI served as the donor (D), and the acceptor (A) was a labeled cysteine residue (Cys 133). The time-dependent intensity decays of the donor were measured by the frequency-domain method from 10 to 320 MHz. The frequency response of the donor emission, in the absence and presence of acceptor, was used to recover the distribution of D to A distances, using an algorithm that accounts for the intrinsic multiexponential decay of the donor. In the native state the D-A distribution is characterized by an average distance of 23 Å and a half-width of 12 Å. Denaturation results in a modest increase in the average distance to 27 Å, and a dramatic increase in half-width to 47 Å. We believe the ability to recover distance distributions will have numerous applications in the characterization of biological macromolecules.

    Notes: The β-lactamases (EC 3.5.2.6) from Bacillus licheniformis 749/C, Enterobacter cloacae P99, and TEM plasmid RP4 are studied in 10-14% (w/v) polyethyleneglycol (PEG) 8000 solutions at pH 6.5 by x-ray scattering and in 18% PEG by equilibrium sedimentation. Although all three enzymes crystallize with twofold crystal symmetry from PEG 8000, it is not possible in this study to prove that dimerization occurs; however, both techniques give evidence for association above 1% (w/v) protein concentration. For the B. lichen., P99, and TEM enzymes, a dimerization of at most 0, 5, and 10% (v/v), respectively, account for the variation of radii of gyration Rg with concentration, after accounting for the effects of nonideality. Apparent Rg were 3-5% smaller in PEG solution than in PEG-free solution. Enhanced ordering of the molecules in PEG solution or the presence of a PEG-depleted hydration shell around the enzymes can account for the observation of reduced Rg values. Accordingly, values of the partial specific volume (defined at constant chemical potential of PEG) indicate considerable PEG exclusion and are consistent with the ability of high Mr PEGs to induce crystallization of these enzymes.

    Notes: The determination of the conformation of a cyclic heptadecapeptide derived from the second loop of human transforming growth factor-α, [Ala21]-hTGF-α-(16-32), is described. Two-dimensional homonuclear Hartmann-Hahn and rotating-frame cross-relaxation spectroscopy in H2O were used to obtain the complete proton resonance assignments and the necessary distance constraints between nonbonded hydrogen atoms to derive a conformation without involving any energy minimization. The result is an ellipsoidal-shaped structure with a turn at Gly19 and a bend formed by residues 26-29, Gln-Glu-Asp-Lys. Comparison is made with the second loop of human epidermal growth factor and the results are discussed in terms of receptor binding and biological activity.

    Notes: Bisintercalation of ditercalinium, a potent antitumoral 7H-pyriodo[4,3-c]carbazole rigid dimer, into the self-complementary tetranucleotides d(CpGpCpG)2, d(m5CpGpm5CpG) and the self-complementary hexanucleotide d(CpGpApTpCpG)2 was investigated by 162-MHz 31P-nmr. The slow exchange, on the nmr time scale, observed between the free and complexed nucleotides allows identification of the phosphorus signals in the complexes through two-dimensional chemical exchange spectroscopy. Differences in 31P chemical shifts upon intercalation are discussed in relation to the complex geometry and nature of the drug.

    Notes: Small angle neutron scattering (SANS) and small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) techniques were used to study two series of concentrated protein solutions containing horse heart cytochrome C (a spherical protein molecule with hydrated diameter σH = 32.6 Å and pI = 10.2) at pD = 2.9 and 11.9, respectively. The concentration of the protein ranges from 1.2 to 24 g/dL. A titration experiment was made to determine the protein charge (Zt) for each sample. Since the form factor of the protein was already determined from a previous experiment [C. F. Wu and S. H. Chen (1987) J. Chem. Phys. 87, 6199-6205] at pD = 6.8, the present series of experiments was used to test the effect of protein charge on the interparticle structure factor. It is demonstrated that the absolute values of both SANS and SAXS cross sections can be calculated with a theory (called the generalized one-component macroion theory) of the interparticle structure factor, which contains a single unknown parameter, the effective protein charge Zp. Comparison of Zt and Zp thus obtained shows that when the bare surface charge density of the protein calculated by using Zt exceeds about 3 μC/cm2, Zp becomes much smaller than Zt. This is interpreted as a charge renormalization phenomenon similar to that known to occur for highly charged polystyrene latex particles in aqueous solution [S. Alexander, P. M. Chaikin, P. Grant, G. J. Morales, and P. Pincus (1984) J. Chem. Phys. 80, 5776-5781].

    Notes: The effects of pH and temperature on the 300-MHz 1H-nmr spectra of three cardioactive polypeptides from sea anemones, anthopleurin-A from Anthopleura xanthogrammica (AP-A) and Anemonia sulcata toxins I and II (ATX I and II), are described. AP-A and ATX II exhibit major spectral heterogeneity. Evidence from the pH and temperature studies and from high performance liquid chromatography indicates that this heterogeneity is conformational rather than chemical in origin. By contrast, purified isotoxins of ATX I show no evidence of conformational heterogeneity. The pKa values of most of the ionizable groups in these polypeptides are not strongly perturbed by interactions in the tertiary structure, with the exception of one of the Asp carboxylates, which has a pKa of ≲ 2 in AP-A and ATX II and 3.0 in ATX I. Protonation of this carboxylate, suggested to be Asp-9, leads to a conformational change in all three molecules. All three polypeptides are thermally stable, showing some conformational changes but not major unfolding at elevated temperatures.

    Notes: Transmembrane (TM) regions of receptor proteins should have unique structural and/or chemical characteristics if these regions contain residues functional in TM signal transduction. However, in a survey of the membrane-occurring residues in 37 integral membrane proteins, we found that amino acid compositions of TM regions of receptor proteins (n = 11) could not be distinguished statistically from corresponding regions of membrane-anchored proteins (e.g., recognition molecules) with a functional external domain attached to a single hydrophobic membrane-spanning anchor segment (n = 16). TM regions in both categories of proteins differed from the compositions of TM regions in membrane-transport proteins (n = 10). The analysis implies that TM regions in receptor proteins may function mainly to anchor (and position) receptors in their cellular membranes, and therefore residues in receptors that participate in signal transduction need not be restricted to these regions. In addition to mechanisms involving receptor aggregation, ligand-activated conformational perturbation of a receptor external aqueous domain, resulting in membrane penetration of hydrophobic segment(s) of this domain to produce intramembranous contact with its cytoplasmic domain, is hypothesized as a further possible mode of signal transduction.

    Notes: The large-scale flexibility of DNA and the intercalation of actinomycin D have been studied by computer simulation using molecular dynamics. The stretching and unwinding of B and Z forms of DNA and intercalation in B-DNA were examined through molecular dynamics simulations, and the energetics of transitions were calculated by the conformational energy minimization method. The principal results of this research are as follows: (1) A dynamic conformational pathway is presented for longitudinal stretching and unwinding of the double helix to open an intercalation site. (2) Large-scale transitions are possible in both B and Z forms of DNA through a conformationally allowed kinetic pathway. (3) The stretching and untwisting of a 5′(CG)3′ step is energetically more favorable than for a GC step in B-DNA. (4) The formation of an adjacent second cavity in B-DNA requires larger energy than the formation of the first cavity, affirming the neighbor-exclusion principle of intercalation. (5) Docking an intercalated actinomycin D in the stretched structure is shown to be geometrically and energetically feasible.

    Notes: Organic solvent-induced coil → helix conformational change of poly(sodium) L-glutamate (NaPLG) and poly(cesium L-glutamate) (CsPLG) in solution in aqueous mixed solvents have been studied at 25°C. Heats of dilution of NaPLG in the water-dioxane pair have been measured as a function of polymer concentration and solvent composition. The results indicate that the overall chain conformation in the disordered form is not too different from that in the α-helical form. Heat capacity measurements by flow microcalorimetry have also been done. The apparent monomolar heat capacity at constant pressure of the polymer, Cp, φ, decreases with dilution similarly to other strong polyelectrolytes in aqueous media. In the water-dioxane pair, Cp, φ increases with the dioxane content due to partial desolvation of ionic species resulting from increasing ionic association. In the case of the water-2-chloroethanol (CE) pair, the transition takes place at low CE content and results show a fast decrease in Cp, φ when the α-helical conformation predominates. It is believed carboxylate groups and CE molecules associate themselves into a complex formation responsible for the transition. The size of the cation plays a significant role in the thermodynamic properties of these polyelectrolytes in solution since sodium ions are more strongly bound to the chain than cesium ions.

    Notes: The helix-coil transition of a Z-helix hairpin formed from d(C-G)5T4(C-G)5 has been characterized by equilibrium melting and temperature jump experiments in 5M NaClO4 and 10 mM Na2HPO4, pH 7.0. The melting curve can be represented by a simple all-or-none transition with a midpoint at 81.6 ± 0.4°C and an enthalpy change of 287 ± 15 kJ/mole. The temperature jump relaxation can be described by single exponentials at a reasonable accuracy. Amplitudes measured as a function of temperature provide equilibrium parameters consistent with those derived from equilibrium melting curves. The rate constants of Z-helix formation are found in the range from 1800 s-1 at 70°C to 800 s-1 at 90°C and are associated with an activation enthalpy of -(50 ± 10) kJ/mole, whereas the rate constants of helix dissociation are found in the range from 200 s-1 at 70°C to 4500 s-1 at 90°C with an activation enthalpy +235 kJ/mole. These parameters are consistent with a requirement of 3-4 base pairs for helix nucleation. Apparently nucleation occurs in the Z-helix conformation, because a separate slow step corresponding to a B to Z transition has not been observed. In summary, the dynamics of the Z-helix-coil transition is very similar to that of previously investigated right-handed double helices.

    Notes: The peptide N-Boc-L-Pro-dehydro-Leu-OCH3 was synthesized by coupling dehydroleucine methyl ester with Boc-Pro-OH. It was crystallized from its solution in a methanol-water mixture at 4°C and the crystals belong to the orthorhombic space group P212121 with a = 10.239(1) Å, b = 19.276(4) Å, c = 20.319(3) Å, V = 4010(1) Å3, and Z = 8. The structure was solved by direct methods using MULTAN 80. The structure was refined to an R value of 0.095 for 1871 observed reflections. There are two crystallographically independent molecules in the unit cell. The molecular dimensions of the two molecules are very similar. The backbone conformation angles of these molecules are as follows: θ1 = -176(1)°, ω0 = -2(2)°, φ1 = -72(1)°, ψ1 = 141(1)°, ω1 = 169(1)°, φ2 = -98(1)°, ψ2 = -179(1)°, θT = 179(1)°, θ11 = 174(1)°, ω10 = -3cm-1, φ11 = -64(1)°, ψ11 = 148(1)°, ω11 = 167(1)°, φ12 = -67(1)°, ψ12 = 175(1)°, and θ1T = 172(1)°, respectively. Other torsion angles such as θ′2 = 86(1)°, χ2 = -5(2)°, ′12 = 131(1)°, and χ12 = -16(2)° are interesting to define the backbone conformation together with the dehydro-Leu side chain as a conformation similar to that of the β-bend type II. The central amide bond of Pro-dehydro-Leu segment is deviated from the planarity. The Boc group adopts a trans-cis conformation. The side-chain torsion angles χ1, χ2, χ3, χ4, and χ0 for Pro-residue in the two molecules are 11(2)°, -11(2)°, 6(2)°, 2(1)°, -9(1)° and -18(1)°, 31(1)°, -31(1)°, 21(1)°, and -1(1)° respectively. The side chain of the Pro residue of molecule A is in the flattened Cγ-endo conformation while the pyrrolidine ring in miolecule B adopts the well-known Cγ-exo conformation. The side-chain torsion angles χ, χ2,1, and χ2,2 in the leucyl residues of molecules A and B are -5(2)°, -111(2)°, 126(2)° and -16(2)°, -110(2)°, and 133(2)°, respectively. The molecular packing is stabilized by intermolecular hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions.

    Notes: Poly(trimethyl-L-lysine), [Lys(Me3)]n, is converted from random coil to α-helix at about 1/30 of the NaClO4 concentration required by poly(L-lysine), (Lys)n. NaClO4 generates turbidity in [Lys(Me)3]n at concentrations above that required for helix formation, and decreases turbidity above lM NaClO4. The turbidity runs parallel to enhanced, and then decreased, fluorescence of a dansyl label. Helix formation per se does not induce enhanced fluorescence. Increasing NaClO4 concentration increases Tm linearly with log[NaClO4] for both (Lys)n and [Lys(Me3)]n until the denaturing effect of high NaClO4 sets in. Increasing NaClO4 also increases the breadth of the transition. Heating helical [Lys(Me3)]n or (Lys)n does not produce a CD spectrum resembling that of “random-coil” (Lys)n, except for [Lys(Me3)]n at relatively low NaClO4 concentration.

    Notes: The preferred conformations of model cyclopropylglycine peptides have been investigated by means of ab initio and empirical methods. Empirical computations performed with fixed bond lengths and valence angles using two well-known force fields show that only values of φ in the ranges ±70° ± 20° are sterically allowed, and that the C7-conformation corresponds to the absolute energy minimum irrespective of the terminal groups used. Also, ab initio computations give similar results, but suggest greater stabilities for bridge and, especially, extended structures. These discrepancies can be removed, adding to the empirical force field a twofold torsional potential on ψ and using softer steric repulsive potentials. Complete geometry optimization using both ab initio and empirical methods does not affect the relative stabilities of folded conformations, but leads to a further significant stabilization of the fully extended structure via large modifications of some valence angles.

    Notes: Hydrogen isotope exchange rates for lysozyme in glycerol cosolvent mixtures [D. G. Knox and A. Rosenberg (1980) Biopolymers 19, 1049-1068] have been analyzed as functions of solvent viscosity and glycerol activity in an attempt to determine which solvent properties influence protein internal dynamics. The effect of glycerol on the fast- and slow-exchanging protons is different. Slow-exchanging protons [H(t) 〈 20] are slowed by ever-increasing amounts as H(t) decreases. However, comparison with data for the effect of glycerol on the thermal unfolding of lysozyme [K. Gekko (1982) J. Biochem. 19, 1197-1204] indicates that the large decrease in exchange rates for the slow protons is not consistent with a local unfolding mechanism of exchange. These effects are also too large to be easily rationalized in terms of solvent viscosity. Instead, we suggest that the large effect of glycerol on exchange of the slow protons is due to a “compression” of the protein, as a result of thermodynamically unfavorable interactions of glycerol with the protein surface. This reduces the protein void volume, which in turn decreases the probability of conformational transitions required for exchange of the slowest protons. Present data do not allow a distinction to be made between thermodynamic (glycerol activity) and dynamic (solvent viscosity) influences on exchange rates for the fast-exchanging protons, although the effect of glycerol on these protons is also probably too large to be consistent with a local unfolding mechanism. In this case, glycerol decreases the rate of catalyst diffusion within the protein matrix, either by decreasing the probabilities or amplitudes of “gating” reactions that allow passage of the catalyst from the solvent to the exchange site, or by increasing the relaxation times for these conformational rearrangements.

    Notes: Circular Dichroism (CD) and Linear Dichroism (LD) Microscopy measurements of single live polytene nuclei of the fleshfly Sarcophaga bullata suggest the existence of two groups of data. This was observed in both the linear and circular dichroism spectra indicating a difference in both the linear and chiral arrangements of the chromatin. The two groups of data were averaged separately and called nucleolus type 1 and type 2. The CD of nucleoli type 1 all show positive CD in the 260 nm wavelength. For the nucleoli type 2 the CD are very different, always negative, with maximum amplitude at 250 nm. The CD of the band, interband and transcriptionally active puffs show very similar CD spectra at 260 nm but differ at lower wavelength (between 245 and 260 nm). Differences are also observed in the LD measurements for nucleoli type 1 (LD maximum at 265 nm) vs. nucleoli type 2 (LD maximum centered at 250 nm). These differences are interpreted as a manifestation of large transcriptional activity for nucleolus type 1, and a more condensed structure and low transcriptional activity for nucleolus type 2.

    Notes: The effects of collective motion in DNA as reflected by resonance coupling among its intact segments have been discussed for both linear and circular DNA molecules. The results indicate that due to the effects of this kind of internal collective motion, the energy will be at times highly concentrated at some spots. As a result of the overfocus of energy, the stress built up along the direction of hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs will be dramatically increased, rupturing a series of consecutive hydrogen bonds simultaneously and resulting in a suddenly free jerk, such that the DNA molecule will undergo a local “quake.” The “hole” formed by this kind of quake-like motion will be large enough for bulky drugs to gain entrance and intercalate into DNA. Even for smaller drugs, this local quake-like motion can also provide a significant mode of entry for intercalation. Energy minimizations carried out for DNA-drug complexes indicate that, for most drugs, a distortion or disruption of 2 to 4 base pairs occurs at the intercalation site in DNA molecules.

    Notes: The characteristics of Ca2+-binding sites and of the structural reorganization induced by Ca2+-binding in storage proteins and ion carriers are being studied as models for molecular mechanisms in Ca2+ channels and in Ca2+-dependent modulatory proteins. A first step in the study was the development of energy parameters for Ca2+ compatible with those in the CHARMM package of computer simulation software. Such parameters were obtained from an analytical fit to the potential surface for [(Ca)(OCH2)4]2+ calculated with an ab initio molecular orbital method. The resulting parametrization was tested for the hexapeptide cyclo-(Pro-Gly)3, and a 75 residue long calcium binding protein from bovine intestine (ICaBP). The geometrical parameters calculated for the hexapeptide and its 2:1 complex with Ca2+ were in good agreement with experimental data from crystallography and nmr. Similarly, the structure of ICaBP optimized with CHARMM using the new Ca2+ parameters showed good agreement with the x-ray structure both in the local structures of the calcium-binding sites and in the overall shape of the protein.

    Notes: Double-stranded synthetic polydeoxynucleotides of the general form poly[d(GnCn)] · poly[d(GnCn)], poly[d(GnC)] · poly[d(GCn)], and poly[d(AnTn)] · poly[d(AnTn)] have been synthesized. When n = 4 or larger, the CD spectra of polymers of the form poly[d(GnCn)] · poly[d(GnCn)] or poly[d(GnC)] · poly[d(GCn)] closely resemble the spectrum of poly[dG] · poly[dC], suggesting that a string of four continguous guanosine residues is sufficient to induce a conformation resembling that of the polypurine · polypyrimidine. With polymers of the form poly[d(AnTn)] · poly[d(AnTn)], however, the CD spectrum only gradually approaches that of poly[dA] · poly[dT].

    Notes: We report the optical absorption spectra of sperm whale deoxy-, oxy-, and carbonmonoxymyoglobin in the temperature range 300-20 K and in 65% glycerol or ethylene glycol-water mixtures. By lowering the temperature, all bands exhibit half-width narrowing and peak frequency shift; moreover, the near-ir bands of deoxymyoglobin show a marked increase of the integrated intensities. Opposed to what has already been reported for human hemoglobin, the temperature dependence of the first moment of the investigated bands does not follow the behavior predicted by the harmonic Franck-Condon approximation and is sizably affected by the solvent composition; this solvent effect is larger in liganded than in nonliganded myoglobin. However, for all the observed bands the behavior of the second moment can be quite well rationalized in terms of the harmonic Franck-Condon approximation and is not dependent on solvent composition. On the basis of these data we put forward some suggestions concerning the structural and dynamic properties of the heme pocket in myoglobin and their dependence upon solvent composition. We also discuss the different behaviors of myoglobin and hemoglobin in terms of the different heme pocket structures and deformabilities of the two proteins.

    Notes: The hydroperoxides formed on thermal oxidation of polyethylene have been used to examine their photolysis. The kinetics and mechanisms of the photolytically induced decomposition of these hydroperoxides are considered. The difficulties encountered with the mechanism based on homolysis of the hydroperoxy bond are discussed. New mechanisms of hydroperoxide photolysis based on bimolecular reactions are proposed. They are in agreement with the products found experimentally - mainly ketones and trans-vinylene groups - and with the kinetics of the product formation. The mechanisms envisaged are easily adapted to polyolefins other than polyethylene and polymers in general.

    Notes: The variations of molecular spectra, colours and characteristic viscosity of modified and unmodified PVC compounds during the polymerization process in various periods of time of natural ageing have been investigated.The PVC types modified during synthesis by 0,25 % vol. plasticizers or plasticizers' mixture are characterized by 10 - 12°C lower glass transition temperature, higher thermal stability, long-term behaviour and better physical and mechanical properties. The Charpy-impact resistance is increased by 50 to 85%. The rate of the relative UV-sorption variation during outdoor exposure was lower for compounds based on the modified PVC types.The polyene parts amount of chain length n = 13, evaluated by means of Raman spectra, was increased during the first and second month, both on non-irradiated and irradiated surface. The total colour variation ΔEab of the new PVC grades in a 10-month poriod of weathering was of 10-30% less compared to the unmodified PVC grades.By means of IR-spectroacopy the variations of the hydroxyl- and carbonyl groups were .valuated and the diffemncee in the oxidation kinetica were establiehed.

    Notes: Antioxidants acting in polymers by chain-breaking and hydroperoxide decomposing mechanisms are chemically transformed during the stabilization process as a consequence of trapping radicals R•, RO• or RO•2 and/or reactivity with hydroperoxides. New chemical compounds with typical structures characteristic of the starting stabilizer are formed stepwise in the polymer mass. Most of these transformation products participate actively in consecutive steps of polymer degradation. Finally observed phenomena depend on the concentration of individual transformation products. Generally, autocooperative effects with starting stabilizers take place. Important data regarding properties of transformation products have been summarized.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die isotherme Differentialthermoanalyse ist als Methode zur Abschätzung der thermooxidativen Beständigkeit von Polyolefinen seit längerem bekannt. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird über isotherme DTA-Messungen an Proben aus Polybuten-1 im Temperaturbereich von 260°C bis 130°C berichtet, wobei Oxidationsinduktionszeiten bis 7000 Stunden gemessen wurden. Die Auftragung der Oxidationsinduktionszeiten in Arrhenius-Diagrammen zeigte für Polybuten-1 keine für Extrapolationszwecke geeignete Linearität des Logarithmus der Oxidationsinduktionszeiten über der reziproken absoluten Temperatur über weitere Bereiche der Meßzeiten bzw. Prüftemperaturen. Die thermoanalytisch bestimmten Oxidationsinduktionszeiten stimmten mit dem Steilabfall der Reißdehnung und der molaren Masse in Ofenalterungsversuchen überein. Damit können aufwendige Ofenalterungsversuche durch experimentell einfache isotherme DTA-Versuche ersetzt werden. Die Messung der thermooxidative Restbeständigkeit im isothermen DTA-Versuch bei erhöhter Prüftemperatur ermöglicht einen wesentlich deutlicheren Einblick in den thermooxidativen Schädigunqszustand eines Polyolefins während der Induktionsperiode des thermooxidativen Abbaus als die Messungen der molaren Masse oder der Reißdehnung. Bei hohen Ofenlagerungstemperaturen erfolgte die Abnahme der thermooxidativen Restbestandigkeit linear uber der Alterungszeit, bei Alterungstemperaturen unterhalb von 160°C nahm die thermooxidative Restbeständiqkeit degressiv in Abhängigkeit von der Ofenalterungszeit ab. Schließlich konnte mit Hilfe der isothermen Differentialthermoanalyse die Extraktion von Stabilisatoren aus Polybuten-1 in einfacher Weise beobachtet werden.
    Notes: Isothermal differential thermal analysis (DTA) is a well known method of testing thermooxidative stabilities of polyolefins. Oxidation induction times, measured up to 7000 hours and over a temperature range from 260°C to 130°C has been used to study the stability of polybutene-1 in the melt state.The Arrhenius plots of DTA results show that straight line extrapolation from high to low temperatures is not possible. Thermoanalytically measured oxidation induction times and mechanical failure in oven ageing experiments agree well for polybutene-1. Measurements of molecular weight and of mechanical properties of polybutene-1 during the induction period of oven ageing experiments revealed that molecular weight and tensile properties are not sensitive indicators for the beginning of ageing. The state of deterioration can be estimated easier by measurement of residual lifetime in the isothermal DTA experiment. At high ageing temperatures the residual lifetime decreased linearly during the induction period, at ageing temperatures below 160°C the decrease of residual lifetime was found degressive.Finally the extraction of stabilizer by not water could be measured by isothermal DTA.

Investigations on the model systems urea/benzoguanamine/formaldehyde and dimethylurea/2-amino-4,6-di-(N-methylanilino)-1,3,5-triazine/formaldehyde with gelchromatography, IR-spectroscopy, and thermogravimetry showed bridges between urea- and melamine-compounds.Also in urea-melamine-formaldehyde-resins it was possible to prove the occurrance of cocondensates by precipitation the melamine derivates with picric acid and analysis of the precipitates by urease-decomposition.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wurden Polyester basierend auf 1,4,5,6,7,7-Hexachlor-5-norbornen-2,3-dicarbonällureanhydrid (I), Tetrachlorphthalsäureanhydrid (II), Dibromneopentylglykol (II), ein Polyesterblend (V) bestehend aus dem Polyester (III) und einem Polyester (IV) für allgemeine Zwecke, ein Polyester (VI) basierend auf 1,4,5,6,7,7-Hexachlor-5-norbornen-2,3-dicarbonsäureanhydrid und dem Polyester III und ein Polyesterblend (VII) bestehend aus den Polyestern I und III hergestellt. Ihre chemische Resistenz und ihre Feuchtigkeitsaufnahme bei Temperaturen von 25 und 65°C wurden in Säuren, 20% NaOH und Wasser untersucht. Hierbei wurde gefunden, daß der Polyester (III) von den Säuren am wenigsten angegriffen wird. Verglichen mit unbehandelten Poly meren fand bei beiden Temperaturen in 20% NaOH eine Gewichtsabnahme bei allen Polyestern statt, mit Ausnahme des Polyesters VII. Erne Gewichtszunahme aller Polyester wurde beobachtet durch Feuchtigkeitsaufnahme sowohl bei 25 als auch bei 65°C, wobei die Zunahme bei der höheren Temperatur größer war. Der Polyester III zeigte die geringste Feuchtigkeitsaufnahme.
    Notes: Chlorendic anhydride based polyester (I,) tetrachlorophthalic anhydride based polyester (II), dibromoneopentyl glycol based polyester (III,) general purpose polyester (IV,) blend of dibromoneopentyl glycol based polyester with general purpose polyester (V,) chlorendic anhydride and dibromoneopentyl glycol based polyester (VI), and a blend of chlorendic anhydride based polyester and dibromoneopentyl glycol based polyester (VII) were prepared and their chemical resistance and moisture absorption studied in various reagents, acid, alkali, and water, at 25 and 65°C. It is found that the polyester (III) is the least affected in the presence of the acids. In 20% NaOH, there was a decrease in weight for all polyesters at both the temperatures compared to the control except the polyester (VII). Increase in weight of all the polyesters was observed during the absorption of moisture both at 25 and 65°C. The increase was higher at higher temperature. Polyester (III) thus shows the least absorption of moisture.

    Description / Table of Contents: Polymere mit Urethaneinheiten wurden durch Lösungspolymerisation der Bisphenole A, C und F mit Diisocyanaten wie Toluol-2,4-diisocyanat, Hexamethylendiisocyanat, Isophorondiisocyanat bzw. Diphenylmethandiisocyanat hergestellt. Die erhaltenen Polymeren waren blaßgelbe Pulver. Diese Polymeren wurden durch IR-Spektroskopie und Bestimmung des Stickstoffgehalts charakterisiert. Die zahlenmittleren Molekulargewichte (M̄n) wurden durch Leitfähigkeitstitration und Bestimmung der Grenzviskositätszahl in Dimethylformamid ermittelt. Mittels Thermogravimetrie wurde das thermische Verhalten untersucht. Die kinetischen Parameter des Abbaus wurden berechnet.
    Notes: Polymers containing urethane units were synthesized by solution polymerization of bisphenols A, C, and F with diisocyanates viz. toluene-2,4-diisocyanate, hexamethylene diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate, and diphenylmethane diisocyanate, respectively. Thus obtained polymers were pale yellow amorphous powders. These polymers were characterized by infrared spectral studies and nitrogen content. The number-average molecular weights (M̄n) were estimated from conductometric titration and limiting viscosity number [η] in dimethyl formamide. From thermogravimetric analyses, the thermal behaviour was studied. Kinetic parameters for their degradation were computed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Neue Diglycidylester wurden in Gegenwart von quaternären Ammoniumsalzen als Katalysator aus ihren entsprechenden Dicarbonsäuren und Epichlorhydrin hergestellt. Die neuen unsymmetrischen Produkte wurden durch spektroskopische Methoden identifiziert und als Monomere in einer Aushärtungsreaktion eingesetzt. Der Reaktionsverlauf wurde mittels IR-Spektroskopie verfolgt. Die Struktur einiger 1öslicher Zwischenprodukte wurde durch 13C-NMR-Spektroskopie ermittelt. Das thermische Verhalten dieser ausgehärteten Epoxidharze wurde ebenfalls untersucht.
    Notes: New diglycidyl esters coming from the corresponding diacids and epichlorohydrin were synthetized using a quaternary ammonium salt as a catalyst. The new asymmetric compounds were characterized by spectroscopic methods and employed as starting monomers in a crosslinking process. The course of the reactions was followed by IR spectroscopy. Some intermediate species were identified in the onset of the reactions by recording 13C-NMR spectra until the products became insoluble in the usual deuterated solvents. The thermal behaviour of these cured epoxy resins was also studied.

    Description / Table of Contents: Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) wurde bei 80°C unterschiedlich lange (15 - 60 min) mit HCl behandelt. Sowohl die hydrolysierten CMC-Proben als auch die ursprüngliche Probe wurden mit Acrylamid unter Verwendung von K2S2O8 als Initiator gepfropft. Es zeigte sich, daß mit zunehmender Hydrolysezeit die Kupferzahl der CMC anstieg, während der Carboxylgehalt dagegen abnahm. Die saure Hydrolyse erhöhte die Empfindlichkeit der CMC gegenüber Pfropfung bedeutend. Die Pfropfung reduziert die Kupferzahl der hydrolisierten CMC-Proben, höchst wahrscheinlich durch Umwandlung der aldehydischen in carboxylische Gruppen unter Mitwirkung von K2S2O8, wiährend der Pfropfung. Pfropfen reduziert ebenfalls den Carboxylgehalt der ursprünglichen CMC-Probe, aber es erhöht dagegen die Carboxylgehalte der hydrolysierten CMC-Proben. Durch Methylolierung der Polyacrylamid-CMC-Pfropfcopolymeren erhält man ein Appreturmittel für Textilien. Die Anwendung dieser Pfropfcopolymeren auf Baumwollgewebe gemäü der herkömmlichen „pad-dry-cure“- Methode lieferte folgende Ergebnisse: 86% der Appretur blieben auf dem Gewebe haften, wenn man CMC-Copolymere benutzte, 92% dagegen bei Verwendung von Copolymeren der hydrolysierten CMC.
    Notes: Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) was treated with HCl at 80°C for different time periods (15 - 60 min). The hydrolyzed CMC samples as well as the original sample were graft copolymerized with acrylamide using K2S2O8 as initiator. It was disclosed that the increasing duration of acid hydrolysis is accompanied by a progressive increment in the copper number of CMC, meanwhile its carboxyl content decreases. Acid hydrolysis enhances significantly the susceptibility of the CMC toward grafting. The latter reduces the copper number of the hydrolyzed CMC samples most probably via conversion of the aldehydic to carboxylic groups under the action of K2S2O8 during grafting. Grafting also reduces the carboxyl content of the original CMC sample while increasing those of the hydrolyzed CMC samples. Methylolation of the polyacrylamide-CMC graft copolymers results in reactive finishes. When the latter were applied to cotton fabric according to the conventional pad-dry-cure method followed by a thorough washing, the fabric retained ca. 86% of the finish derived from the copolymer of CMC and 92% of finishes derived from the copolymers of hydrolyzed CMC.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Porengröße von porösen, vernetzten Polystyrolen wurde mit einer Intrusionsmethode untersucht. Hierbei wurde der Druck gemessen, der nötig war, um das Quecksilber in die Poren zu pressen. Die verschiedenen Nachbehandlungen dieser Polymeren lieferten interessante Ergebnisse über das Verhalten der mit der oben genannten Methode untersuchbaren „stationären Poren“, im allgemeinen Makroporen genannt. Es wurde gefunden, daß die Makroporen sich verkleinern oder ganz verschwinden, wenn man die porösen, vernetzten Polystyrole entweder in dem guten Lösungsmittel Ethylendiclorid (EDC) quellen läßt oder über ihre Glastemperauren (Tg) erhitzt. Weiterhin wurde beobachtet, daß diese wieder erscheinen, wenn man die so behandelten Polymeren wieder quellen läßt, und zwar zuerst in EDC und anschließend in dem schlecten Lösungsmittel Methanol. Diese Ergebnisse legen nahe, daß die Struktur der Makroporen memoriert wurde ähnlich den Legierungen mit Strukturerinnerungsvermögen.
    Notes: Porosity of porous crosslinked polystyrenes was examined by the pressurized-mercury intrusion method. Various aftertreatments of those polymers revealed interesting results of behaviors of “fixed pores”, whichS indicates pores measurable by this method: (1) fixed pores were found to diminish or vanish by swelling them with ethylene dichloride (EDC) as a good solvent or by heating them above the glass transition temperature (Tg), but (2) those pores were observed to reappear after the polymers treated above were swollen again with EDC, followed by replacing EDC with methanol as a poor solvent. This implies that the fixed-pore structure has been memorized like a shape-memory alloy.

    Description / Table of Contents: Styrol-Acrylsäure (St-AA)-Copolymere mit niedrigen Molekulargewichten (M̄w 〈 15000) wurden bei hohen Temperaturen (230 - 300°C) in einem kontinuierlichen Rührkesselreaktor hergestellt. Diese wurden dann in Lösungsmittel/Nichtlösungsmittel-Systemen fraktioniert ausgefällt. Um Monomerreste und Oligomere mit niedrigsten Molekulargewichten zu entfernen, wurden die Fraktionierungsexperimente mit dem Methanol-Dichlormethan/Hexan-System ausgeführt (1. Schritt). Im zweiten Fällungsschritt wurden unter Benutzung des gleichen Lösungsmittel/Nichtlösungsmittel-Systems die Ldslichkeitsgrenzen der St-AA-Copolymeren als Funktion der Copolymerzusammensetzung (mit Hilfe der Triibungspunktmethode) bestimmt. Zur Charakterisierung der Copolymeren wurden die Gelchromatographie (mit Styragelsaulen), die Kleinwinkellaserlichtstreuung (LALLS) und die volumetrische Titration der Carboxygruppen angewendet. Zur Bestimmung des Ldslichkeitsdiagramms der niedermolekularen St-AA-Copolymeren wurden die beiden Ldsungsmittelparameter S, und Polaritatsindex P′ benutzt.
    Notes: Styrene-acrylic acid (St-AA) low molecular weight copolymers (M̄w 〈 15,000) synthesized at high temperatures (230 - 300°C) in a continuous stirred tank reactor were fractionally precipitated in solvent/nonsolvent systems. Fractional precipitation experiments were done in the system methanol-dichloromethane/hexane to remove residual monomers and the lowest molecular weight oligomers (1st step). Solubility limits of St-AA copolymers as a function of copolymer composition were determined using the same solvent/nonsolvent system in the 2nd step of precipitation tests (cloud point base). GPC on Styragel-type columns, low-angle laser light scattering (LALLS), and volumetric titration of carboxylic groups were applied for copolymer characterization. Two solvent-derived parameters the total solubility parameter δT and the polarity index P′ are used to determine the solubility diagrams of St-AA low molecular weight copolymers.
