    Notes: The first observation of ir vibrational CD (VCD) in small model DNA molecules is reported. The VCD signals in the 1550-1750-cm-1 spectral region, which originate from coupling of carbonyl stretching modes of the nucleic acid bases, are found to be sensitive to the handedness of the polymer helix.The formalism to calculate VCD intensities of polymers is developed from the exciton model derived earlier by Tinoco [(1963) Radiation Res. 20, 133; (1960) J. Chem. Phys. 33, 1332; (1964) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 86, 297] and Schellman and co-workers [(1975) Biopolymers 14, 173; (1969) J. Phys. Chem. 73, 28]. The resulting equations, which are a direct extension of the dimeric case known as the “coupled oscillator,” are used in model calculations of the helical polymers.

    Notes: The thermodynamically stable states of denatured protein in solution are investigated. These states are distinguished from the native state by the absence of tight packing of side chains while the compactness of denatured protein may vary within a wide region. The following regimes are outlined: 1the “wet” molten globule, i.e., the compact state with pores occupied by solvent;2the swollen globule (“wet,” of course); and3the coil.The “dry” molten globule, when solvent does not penetrate inside the protein, is excluded for all experimental conditions. All the transitions within the denatured globule state are gradual while the denatured globule-coil phase transition is a second order one. The conditions of protein denaturation as well as conditions of transitions and crossovers within the denatured state are outlined.

    Notes: We examine the effects of concentration (aggregation), buffers, and ligation, under conditions of either constant ligand activity or limited total amount of ligand, upon thermal denaturation of macromolecules as measured by scanning calorimetry. In doing so we utilize and extend an earlier generalized allosteric treatment [S. J. Gill, B. Richey, G. Bishop, and J. Wyman (1985) Biophys. Chem. 21, 1-14], applicable to ligand binding, enthalpy changes, and volume changes in a macromolecular system. The approach is contrasted with formulations based on the idea of structural domains. We show how information from the full scanning calorimetric curves can be utilized in arriving at and testing appropriate models for observed behavior in selected examples.

    Notes: The influence of inverted repeat sequences on the melting transitions of linear of DNAs has been examined. Derivative melting curves (DMC) of a 514 base pair (bp) DNA, seven subfragments of this DNA, and four other DNAs have been compared to predictions of DNA melting theory. The 514-bp DNA contains three inverted repeat sequences that can form cruciform structures in supercoiled DNA. We refer to these sequences as c-inverted repeats. Previous work showed that the DMC of this DNA, unlike a number of other DNAs, is not accurately predicted by DNA melting theory. Since the theoretical model does not include hairpin-like structures, it was suggested that hairpin or cruciform formation in these inverted repeats may be responsible for this discrepancy. Our results support this hypothesis. Predicted DMCs are in good agreement with DNAs with no inverted repeats, or inverted repeats not evident in supercoiled DNA. Differences between the theoretical and experimental Tm's are ≤ 0.3°C. DNA molecules that contain one or more of the three c-inverted repeats are not as accurately predicted. Experimental Tm values are lower than predicted values by 0.7-3.8°C. It is concluded that some inverted repeat sequences can form hairpin-like structures during the melting of linear DNAs. These structures appear to lower overall DNA stability.

    Notes: The biased reptation model provides a good framework for interpreting the results of continuous field DNA electrophoresis experiments performed in agarose gels. Here we discuss the main features of the mobility-molecular size and mobility-gel concentration diagrams as obtained from new extensive computer simulations of the model. Our aim is to suggest a global and coherent picture of this widely used yet poorly understood experimental technique, and to point out the areas where a systematic experimental study is still needed.

    Notes: The study of the monomeric chromophore of the distamycins reported in Ref. 1 was used here to build up a description of the electronic states of the whole oligopeptide by the exciton theory. Liquid crystal-linear dichroism (LC-LD) spectra of the distamycins were recorded by using as orienting solvents both thermotropic and lyotropic mesomorphic media. The agreement between the LD spectra and the polarization assignments by the exciton treatment is satisfactory. On this basis the flow-LD spectra of the complex between distamycin V and DNA was interpreted in terms of the preferred relative orientations of the guest and host molecules. A single site location of the distamycin within the minor groove does not perfectly match the experimental order parameters. This orientational distribution function could be too simple to explain the experimental data. It may therefore be assumed that a small fraction of the guest molecules are preferentially aligned more parallel to the host chain axis than the minor groove. Alternatively, and probably more likely, the partial mismatch of the experimental data with the minor groove location may be seen as a manifestation of the well-known stiffening and bending effects at the binding sites, which have already been observed by other techniques.

    Notes: A number of chemically modified hemoglobin preparations have been proposed for use as an emergency resuscitation fluid. The purpose for forming these hemoglobin derivatives is to decrease the oxygen binding (i.e., to increase the P50) and to increase the intravascular retention time. These goals have been met with various degrees of success by using the reaction with pyridoxyl 5-phosphate to raise the P50, followed by the addition of glutaraldehyde to increase circulating half-life by polymerization.1,2 Other derivatives have been formed with polyethylene glycol,3,4 bis-(3,5-dibromosalicyl) fumarate,5,6 glycolaldehyde,7 and 2-nor-2-formylpyridoxal 5-phosphate,8,9 as well as with other compounds. All these derivatives introduce a foreign molecule into the hemoglobin, which may not always be desirable. Recently Tharp and Day10 used cyanogen to form intersubunit amide cross-links in hemoglobin without the incorporation of cyanogen. This approach is attractive if the appropriate functional properties can be attained. Takeda et al.11 showed that equimolar concentrations of amino acids and disuccinimidyloxalate could form peptide bonds in high yield. We report the characteristics of the hemoglobin molecule modified by internal covalent amide bonds, which may be a suitable candidate for a resuscitation fluid.

    Description / Table of Contents: Polyethylene terephthalate (PETP)-multifilament yarns with different thermal history were used as testing materials. Stress-strain-curves from 0.1 up to 100000%/s were determinated. These data were used to compute relaxation- and retardationcurves over 7 decades of time. By superponing relaxation-functions for various elongations respectively retardation-functions for various stresses, mastercurves over 21 respectively 13 decades of time were obtained which can be subdivided into 4 regions, associating the following changes of structure: Region 1: suddenly recovering quasielastic deformation with relaxation times between minor 1 and 10 sRegion 2: irreversible deformation, consolidation, with relaxation times between 10 and 105 s,Region 3: elastic behaviour of the physical network with relaxation times between 105 and 107 s andRegion 4: transformation and destruction of the network with relaxation times between 107 and 1016 s.
    Notes: Von Polyethylenterephthalat (PETP)-Multifilamentgarnen mit unterschiedlicher thermischer Vorgeschichte wurden Kraft-Dehnungs-Kurven mit den Dehngeschwindigkeiten 0,1 bis 100 000%/s ermittelt. Diese lassen sich zu Relaxations- und Retardationskurven über sieben Zeitdekaden umrechnen. Durch Superponieren von Relaxationsfunktionen für unterschiedliche Dehnungen bzw. Retardationsfunktionen für unterschiedliche Fadenzugspannungen werden Relaxations- und Retardationsfunktionen bis 21 bzw. 13 Zeitdekaden bestimmt, die sich in vier Bereiche unterteilen lassen, denen folgende Strukturveränderungen zugeordnet werden können: Bereich 1: sofort erholbare, quasielastische Deformation mit Relaxationszeiten kleiner 1 bis 10 s,Bereich 2: irreversible Deformation, Verfestigung, mit Relaxationszeiten zwischen 10 und 105 s,Bereich 3: elastisches Verhalten des physikalischen Netzwerkes mit Relaxationszeiten zwischen 105 und 107 s undBereich 4: Umbau und Zerstörung des Netzwerkes mit Relaxationszeiten zwischen 107 und 1016 s.

    Description / Table of Contents: Interferometric measurements of a PETP-monofilament yarn show that the orientation of the high pre-orientated material decreases after stretching and relaxing. The effect of desorientation is more distinctive by a slower deformation then by a high-speed deformation. The lower decrease is caused by a slower deformation. Material strained with a rate of 104%/s shows “crazes” visible by interferometry. These “crazes” are not cracks but sites with lowered orientation. For slower deformation it is visible interferometrically that the orientation of the macromolecules in the fiber is asymmetric. DTA-curves from PETP-fibres show an exothermic peak between 30 and 80°C which can be related to specific structures of the non cristalline regions. By low-speed straining this peak shifts to lower temperatures. Stress-free storing of the material causes the peak to move back to the original temperature. For material deformated at high-speeds this peak does not change its position.
    Notes: Interferenzmikroskopische Messungen eines PETP-Monofilamentgarns zeigen, daß die Orientierung des schon hoch vororientierten Materials durch Dehnen und wieder Entspannen abnimmt, langsame Verformung wirkt dabei stärker desorientierend auf das Material als eine schnelle Verformung. Die Packungsdichte nimmt durch Dehnen ab. Die größte Dehngeschwindigkeit bewirkt die größte Abnahme.Ein mit der Dehngeschwindigkeit ∊ = 104%/s gedehntes Monofilament zeigt interferenzmikroskopisch sichtbare „Crazes“. Diese „Crazes“ sind keine Risse, sondern nur rißförmige Orte verminderter Orientierung. Für kleinere Dehngeschwindigkeiten ist interferenzmikroskopisch Unsymmetrie der Orientierung sichtbar. DTA-Kurven von PETP-Fasern zeigen zwischen 30 und 80°C einen exothermen Peak, der spezifischen Strukturen der fehlgeordneten Bereiche zugeordnet werden kann. Bei niedrigen Dehngeschwindigkeiten verlagert sich dieser Peak zu niedrigeren Temperaturen. Durch Lagern des Materials kehrt er zur ursprünglichen Temperaturlage zurück. Für schnell deformiertes Material ändert dieser Peak seine Temperaturlage nicht.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wurde die Herstellung von ungesättigten Polyestern untersucht, die aus Mischungen von Fumarsäure und Adipinsäure in verschiedenen Verhältnissen ohne zusätzlichen Katalysator entstehen. Der Verlauf der Polyveresterung wurde durch die Bestimmung der während der Reaktion produzierten Wassermenge verfolgt. Die kinetischen Parameter der Polyveresterung (Reaktionsordnung n, Aktivierungsenergie E, Frequenzfaktor k0) wurden bestimmt, und es wurde n = 3 in allen Fällen festgestellt, während die Werte von E und k0 mit zunehmendem Fumarsäureanteil in der Anfangsmischung zunehmen. Ein mathematisches Modell für die Polyveresterung wurde bestimmt, was auf den Herstellungs-Parametern (z. B. Aufheizprogramm) und den kinetischen Parametern basiert, und es wurde festgestellt, daß die Korrelation zwischen den Kurven der experimentell entstandenen Wassermenge und der theoretischen (berechneten) Wassermenge sehr gut ist. Die Eigenschaften der Endprodukte, wie Viskosität und die schwach gelbe Farbe, nehmen mit zunehmendem Fumarsäureanteil in der Anfangsmischung zu. Es wurden auch generelle Perspektiven für die praktische Anwendung dieser Methode diskutiert.
    Notes: The production of unsaturated polyesters based on mixtures of fumaric acid and adipic acid for different proportions without added catalyst was studied. The progress of the polyesterification was followed by determining the amount of water produced during the reaction. The kinetic parameters (reaction order n, activation energy E, frequency factor k0) of the polyesterification were determined and it was found out that n = 3 in all cases, while E and k0 increased by increasing amount of fumaric acid in the initial mixture of the reaction. A mathematical model for the polyesterification based on the production parameters (e.g. the heating program) and on the kinetic parameters was used and very good correlation was found between the corresponding pair of curves of water produced during the polyesterification, which were determined experimentally and theoretically (by calculating). With regard to the properties of the final product it was found out that its viscosity and its slight yellow colour increased by increasing the amount of fumaric acid in the initial mixture of raw materials. General prospects for practical application of this method were also discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht das linear-elastische Bruchverhalten von (PMMA) mit Poly(ethylen-co-vinylacetat) (EVA) oder EVA  -  g-Bernsteinsäureanhydrid (EVA-g-SA) mittels Kerbschlagzähigkeitsmessungen nach Charpy. Rasterelektronenmikroskopaufnahmen zeigen, daß in Blends, die durch „in situ“-Polymerisation des acrylischen Monomeren in Gegenwart des Elastomeren hergestellt wurden, eine IPN-Morphologie vorliegt, während ein Blend, das durch Mischung der Polymerkomponenten im Schmelzezustand gebildet wurde, die typische zweiphasige Struktur von dispergierten Elastomerdomänen in einer glasartigen Matrix zeigt.Die Ergebnisse der mechanischen Messungen stimmen gut mit den beobachteten Morphologien überein.
    Notes: In the present work blends between poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) and poly(ethylene-co-vinylacetate) (EVA) or its derivative EVA-g-succinic anhydride (EVA-g-SA) have been investigated by linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) with Charpy impact tests and by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Blends prepared by “insitu” radical polymerization of the acrylic monomer in the presence of the rubbers have an IPN morphology, while a blend prepared by melt-mixing the polymer components shows the typical biphasic structure of rubbery domains dispersed in a glassy matrix.Furthermore, a different behaviour is found when using EVA-g-SA instead of EVA. A fair agreement is found between the response of the LEFM analysis applied to the results of Charpy impact tests and the observed morphologies.

    Description / Table of Contents: This paper reports the results of UV-laser-irradiations of elastomer fibres under application of varying external tensions on the fibres and under varying laser conditions. It is known that tension as well as temperature fields can lead to these synergetic effects that are supposed to cause the surface structuring by UV-laser-irradiation. Therefore the purpose of the reported experiments was to evaluate whether tension or temperature as the source of the system instabilities eventually lead to surface structuring.
    Notes: Dieser Beitrag berichtet über die UV-Laserbestrahlung von Elastomerfasern unter dem Einfluß verschieden großer äußerer Spannungsfelder und unterschiedlicher Laserbedingungen. Aus der Literatur ist bekannt, daß synergetische Effekte, die als Ursache der Oberflächenstrukturierung angesehen werden, sowohl durch Temperaturwie auch Spannungsfelder getrieben sein können. Daher sollen die beschriebenen Experimente untersuchen, welche der genannten Bedingungen in der Hauptsache zur Instabilität des Systems und damit zur Oberflächenstrukturierung führen.

    Notes: Polystyrene (PS) was reinforced/filled with grafted thermomechanical pulp (TMP) of aspen and birch. The dependence of tensile properties of composites on different loadings of filler, on polymer loading in grafted fiber, on the presence of homopolymer in grafted fiber, and on impregnation of fibers with PS were studied. PS filled with grafted aspen and birch (lower polymer loading) showed a significant increase in tensile strength and modulus. Fracture energy and elongation of the composites decreased with an increase in the concentration of filler.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wurde der Einfluß der durch Terpolymere modifizierten Polystyrolfilme auf ihre Widerstandsfähigkeit gegenüber UV-Strahlung untersucht.ESR, IR, UV, Massenspektroskopie sowie Viskositäts- und Löslichkeitsmessungen ergeben, daß 3% ABS oder MBS in den Polystyrolfilmen einen bedeutenden Einfluß auf die photochemischen Prozesse hat. Proben mit Terpolymeren, die mit UV-Licht bestrahlt waren, weisen auf eine größere Konzentration von Radikalen mit kürzerer Halbwertszeit hin. Beide Terpolymere bewirken eine höhere Ausbeute der Photooxidation und Vernetzung des Polystyrols und setzen seine Photodehydrierung herab.
    Notes: The influence of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene-terpolymer (ABS) and methyl methacrylate-butadiene-styrene-terpolymer (MBS) modifying the polystyrene (PS) films on its resistance to UV radiation were investigated.On the basis of the results of ESR, IR, UV, mass spectroscopy, viscosimetric and solubility measurements it was found that 3% of ABS or MBS in polystyrene films have a clear influence on the course of photochemical processes. After UV-irradiation of the samples, at the presence of this terpolymers, a greater concentration of free radicals with shorter half-life times was observed.Both terpolymers increase the productivity of photooxydation of polystyrene as well as its crosslinking and decrease its dehydrogenation.

    Notes: The lipid bilayers of cell membranes are usually connected to two types of biopolymers: the cytoskeleton and the glycocalix. These structures are not only responsible for the stabilization of the lipid bilayer, they also alter the surface properties of the cells. Among the various attempts to mimick membrane properties using polymeric systems(1), one method is the fixation of amphiphilic polymers via hydrophobic anchor groups to lipid bilayers. In the experiments reported here the influence of amphiphilic polymers on the morphology of giant unilamellar liposomes has been investigated. Therefore a series of amphiphilic polyvinylpyrrolidone and dextran derivatives has been synthesized. The fixation of these polymers to the liposomal membranes could be shown with a fluorescence-labelled derivative by using epifluorescence microscopy. The polymer-membrane interaction caused by the insertion of the anchor groups leads to drastic morphological changes in this model membrane system. The exclusive interaction with the outer membrane of multilamellar liposomes could be demonstrated by freeze fracture electron microscopy. In addition, the anchoring of a natural capsular polysaccharide in liposomes has been proven by immunofluorescence. In these experiments, also a clustering (patching) of the antigen caused by the binding of the antibody could be observed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Copolymerisation von Acrylnitril (AN) und Glycidylmethacrylat (GMA) in Tetrahydrofuran wurde untersucht. Die Reaktivitältsverhältnisse wurden bestimmt und das thermische Verhalten der Homo- und der Copolymeren wurde mit Hilfe der Differentialthermoanalyse (DTA) und der Thermogravimetrie (TG) untersucht. Es wurde gefunden, daß GMA beim Aufheizen die Nitriloligomerisationsreaktion initiiert. Die Anfärbbarkeit und die Bleichung in UV-Licht wurden ebenfalls untersucht. Verglichen mit Homopolyacrylnitril zeigen die Copolymeren bessere Affinität gegen basische Farbstoffe. Diese Affinität steigt mit zunehmendem GMA-Anteil im Copolymeren an.
    Notes: The copolymerization of acrylonitrile (AN) with glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) has been investigated in tetrahydrofuran (THF). The reactivity ratios were estimated and the thermal behaviour of the homo- as well as the copolymers, both in air, and under nitrogen atmosphere was investigated using differential thermal analysis (DTA) and thermogravimetry (TG) techniques. GMA was found to initiate the nitrile oligomerization reaction in the copolymers upon heating. The dyeing ability, as well as the colour fastness towards UV light have also been investigated. It was found that the copolymers showed better affinity towards basic dyes compared to homopolyacrylonitrile. This affinity increases with increasing the GMA content in the copolymer.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wurde die Dehydrofluorierung von Polyvinylidenfluorid (PVDF)-Pulvern und -Filmen durch verschiedene basische Lösungen untersucht. Speziell die Reaktivität von 1,8-Diazabicyclo[5.4.0]-7-undecen (DBU) in Ethanol, KOH in 2-Propanol und wäßriger NaOH-Lösung mit Tetrabutylammoniumbromid wurde mit Hilfe von Veränderungen der Absorptionsbanden von PVDF-Filmen im Infrarot-(IR) und Ultraviolett-sichtbaren Bereich (UV-VI) untersucht. Neben den durch DBU oder KOH bewirkten Eliminierungsreaktionen treten sicherlich auch Substitutionsreaktionen auf. Die elektrische Leitfähigkeit von dehydrofluorierten PVDF-Filmen nimmt durch Dotierung mit Iod merklich zu, und die Aktivierungsenergien der Leitung liegen zwischen 0,4 und 0,5 eV. Verstrecken eines dehydrofluorierten und mit Iod dotierten PVDF-Films führt zu einer Anisotropie der Leitfähigkeit.
    Notes: The dehydrofluorination of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) powder and films was studied using several kinds of base solution. Especially the reactivity of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]-7-undecene (DBU) in ethanol, KOH in 2-propanol and aqueous NaOH solution with tetrabutylammonium bromide was investigated by the change in infrared (IR) and ultraviolet-visible (UV-VI) absorptions of PVDF films. The elimination reactions by DBU or KOH were considered to be accompanied by substitution reaction. The electrical conductivity of dehydrofluorinated PVDF films increased markedly by doping with iodine, and the activation energies of conduction were found to be between 0.4 and 0.5 eV. When a drawn PVDF film was dehydrofluorinated and doped with iodine, anisotropy in conductivity was observed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Schmelzrheologische Untersuchungen an Nylon 6/Polyethylenterephthalat (PETP) Blends (PETP-Gehalt zwischen 10 und 50%) wurden mit Hilfe eines Kapillar-Rheometers mit Schergeschwindigkeiten im Bereich von 58 s-1 bis 1,15 · 103 s-1 durchgeführt. Mit steigendem PETP-Gehalt im Blend wurde eine Abnahme der Schmelzviskosität und des nicht-Newtonschen Verhaltens beobachtet. Die Modellgleichung, von Uemura und Takayanagi für viskoelastisch schmelzende Blends entwickelt, wurde zum besseren Verständnis der Dispersion und Morphologie der Nylon 6/PETP-Blends benutzt. Ferner wurde eine umgekehrt proportionale Beziehung zwischen der Schmelzviskosität (η) und dem Elastizitätsmodul (E') von Fasern beobachtet.
    Notes: Melt rheological studies of nylon 6/polyethylene terephthalate (PETP) blends (PETP content varying from 10 to 50%) were carried out using capillary rheometer in the shear rate range of 58 s-1 to 1.15 · 103 s-1. With increasing PETP content in the blend a decrease of the melt viscosity as well as non-Newtonian behaviour was observed. The model equation developed by Uemura and Takayanagi for viscoelastic melt blends has been used to understand the state of dispersion and morphology of a nylon 6/PETP blend system. Further, an inverse relationship between polymer melt viscosity (η) and elastic modulus (E') of fibres was observed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Der Wirkungsmechanismus des Antioxidans N,N′-Diphenyl-1,4-phenylendiamin (I, DPPD) wurde bei Modellbedingungen untersucht. Die Verbindung I reagiert nach der Oxidation zum Semichinonradikal VIII oder Wursters Kation IX mit 1-Cyano-1-methylethyl (Modellradikal) auf zwei verschiedenen Wegen, und die Reaktion wird durch schwache Säuren beschleunigt. Eine Reaktionsweise führt zur Bindung von Alkyl an Stickstoff unter Bildung von Verbindung III. Diese Verbindung ist unbeständig und, besonders in Gegenwart von Säuren, spaltet leicht Olefin unter Regeneration von DPPD ab. Dieses Verhalten ist ein Modell des Regenerationsmechanismus beim Stabilisierungseffekt von DPPD. Bei diesem Mechanismus werden Alkylperoxy- und Alkylradikale, wührend der Alterung der Kohlenwasserstoffsubstrate unter der Bedingung von relativem Sauerstoffmangel durch DPPD und seinem Oxidationsprodukt (VIII oder IX) desaktiviert. Der zweite Weg führt zur Bindung von Alkyl an den Benzolring unter Bildung von den Verbindungen IV und V. Er stellt so ein Modell für die Bindung von DPPD in die Polymerkette oder auch bei der Vernetzung der Polymerkette während der Alterung des mit DPPD stabilisierten Polymeren dar. Die Verbindung IV unterliegt wegen der Anwesenheit einer Nitrilgruppe noch anderen Veränderungen, bei denen die Verbindungen VI und VII entstehen.
    Notes: The mechanism of action of an antioxidant, N,N′-diphenyl-1,4-phenylene diamine (I, DPPD)Decoding of abbreviations see p. 48., was investigated under model conditions. After oxidation to a semiquinone radical, phenyl (4-phenylamino phenyl)aminyl (VIII), or to Wurster's cation phenyl (4-phenylamino phenyl)ammoniumyl (IX), I reacts with 1-cyano-1-methylethyl (model alkyl) by two routes, both of which are accelerated by weak acids. One of these routes results in alkyl being bound to nitrogen with formation of N,N′-diphenyl N-(1-cyano-1-methylethyl)1,4-phenylene diamine (III). The latter compound is labile, and particularly in the presence of acids readily splits off olefin with regeneration of DPPD. This behaviour is a model of the regeneration mechanism of the stabilizing effect of DPPD, which alternately with its oxidation product (VIII or IX) deactivates the alkylperoxyl and alkyl radicals during the ageing of hydrocarbon substrates under conditions of the relative deficiency of oxygen. The other route leads to binding of the alkyl in the benzene ring with formation of N,N′-diphenyl 2-(1-cyano-1-methylethyl) 1,4-phenylene diamine (IV) and N,N′-diphenyl 2-(1-cyano-1-methylethyl) 1,4-benzoquinone diimine (V), thus modelling the binding of DPPD in the polymer chain, and even the crosslinking of the chain during the ageing of a polymer inhibited with DPPD. Due to the presence of the nitrile group, IV undergoes some further changes, which give rise to the formation of 3,3-dimethyl 2-imino-1-phenyl 5-phenylamino indoline (VI) and 2-acetylimino 3,3-dimethyl-1-phenyl 5-phenylamino indoline (VII).

    Description / Table of Contents: Die pfropfcopolymerisation von N-Methylolacrylamid auf Flachs/Polyester-Mischgewebe mit Hilfe eines Eisen/Cellulosethiocarbonat/H2O2-Redoxsystems wurde unter verschiedenen Bedingungen, wie Wasserstoffperoxid-Konzentration (1-60 mmol/l), Eisen-Ammoniumsulfat-Konzentration (1-50 mmol/l), N-Methylolacrylamid-Konzentration (5-200%, bezogen auf das Probengewicht), Polymerisationszeit (10-90 min), Temperatur (20-50°C) und pH-Wert des Mediums (1,1-11) untersucht. Zur Berechnung der Pfropfausbeute wurde der Stickstoff-und/oder der Methylolgehalt benutzt. Die erhaltenen Ergebnisse zeigen, daß die Pfropfausbeute, die durch Stickstoffanalyse bestimmt wurde, umso h6her ist, je mehr die H2O2-Konzentration steigt; ab 40 mmol/l bleibt die Ausbeute konstant. Auf der anderen Seite hat die Pfropfausbeute, die aus dem Methylolgehalt bestimmt wurde, einen Maximalwert bei 10 mmol/l H2O2. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, daß die Pfropfung sehr begünstigt abliruft, wenn die Reaktion mit 1 mmol/l Eisen-Ammoniumsulfat bei einem pH von 4,4, einer Temperatur von 30°C und 60 min lang durchgefuhrt wird. Die Aktivierungsenergie der Copolymerisationsreaktion betrirgt 9,74 kJ/mol, und die Pfropfausbeute steigt mit steigender N-Methylolacrylamid-Konzentration. Weiterhin wurde ein Vergleich der Polymerisatonswirksamkeit in Bezug auf die Pfropfung von N-Methylolacrylamid auf Flachs/Polyester-Mischgewebe zwischen einem Eisen-/Cellulosethiocarbonat/H2O2- und einem Eisen/H2O2-Redoxsystem durchgefuhrt. Diese beiden Systeme wurden bezuglich der Pfropfausbeute, des Homopolymeranteils, des Gesamtumsatzes, des Pfropfungsgrades und des Polymerisationsgrades des Homopolymeren untersucht.
    Notes: Graft copolymerization of N-methylolacrylamide onto flax/polyester blend fabric using ferrous cellulose thiocarbonate/H2O2 redox system was investigated under different conditions including hydrogen peroxide concentration (1-60 mmol/l), ferrous ammonium sulphate concentration (1-50 mmol/l), N-methylolacrylamide concentration (5-200%, based on weight of sample), polymerization time (10-90 min), temperature (20-50°C), and pH of the medium (1.1-11). The nitrogen content and/or the methylol content were used for calculation of graft yields. Results obtained indicated that graft yields, derived from nitrogen analysis, are higher the greater the H2O2 concentration increases till 40 mmol/l, then level off. On the other hand, graft yields derived from methylol content exhibit maximum value at 10 mmol/l H2O2. The results indicate also that grafting was highly favoured when it was carried out using 1 mmol/l ferrous ammonium sulphate and pH 4.4 at 30°C for 60 min. The apparent activation energy of the copolymerization reaction amounts to 9.74 kJ/mol. Furthermore, the graft yield increases by increasing N-methylolacrylamide concentration within the range studied. The work was further extended to include a comparison between the polymerization efficiencies of the ferrous cellulose thiocarbonate/H2O2 redox system and the ferrous/H2O2 redox system in inducing grafting of N-methylolacrylamide onto flax/polyester blend fabric. For this reason, the two systems were studied with respect to graft yield, homopolymer proportion, total conversion, graft efficiency, and homopolymer efficiency.

    Description / Table of Contents: Der Flammschutz von Polymeren durch Entstehung von intumeszierender Kohle wird allgemein auf die physikalischen isolierenden Eigenschaften der bei der Verkohlung entstehenden Oberfläche zurückgeführt. Diese Eigenschaften wiederum hängen von der physikalisch-chemischen Struktur der Kohle ab, über die nur wenig bekannt ist. Es wird gezeigt, daß die Elektronenrastermikroskopie und Mikroanalyse durch ein energiedispersives System Aufschluß geben über die Morphologie und Zusammensetzung solcher intumeszierender Systeme. Die erhaltenen Daten tragen zum Verständnis der Schwerentflammbarkeit bei.
    Notes: The protection provided by intumescent chars against the action of the flame is generally attributed to their physical insulating properties. These in turn depend on the physical chemical structure of swollen char, which however has been scarcely studied. It is shown that scanning electron microscopy and microanalysis by energy dispersive system supply detailed information on the morphology and the chemical composition of intumescent systems. The data obtained contribute to the understanding of the fire retardance mechanism.

    Description / Table of Contents: CO2- und Eximer-Laser-(193, 248, 350 nm) Behandlungen wurden an Polyetheretherketon (PEEK) vorgenommen. Hochintensive Eximer-Laser-Strahlung verursacht wirksame Ätzung, hauptsächlich durch thermische Effekte. Die Bestrahlung mit CO2-Lasern und hochintensiven Eximer-Lasern führt zu Änderungen in der Oberflächenchemie und -morphologie.Intensitätsschwache Eximer-Laser-Bestrahlung bei 193 und 248 nm begünstigt das Auftreten photochemischer Phänomene. Die chemische Modifizierung der Oberfläche führt zur Sauerstoffabnahme, und eine bevorzugte Eliminierung der Ketonbrücke wurde festgestellt. Gleichzeitig wurden morphologische Veränderungen der Oberfläche gefunden; Beugungseffekte führen zu konischen Strukturen, und die Abscheidung größerer Oligomerer bewirkt die Bildung von Ablagerungen auf der Oberfläche.
    Notes: CO2 and excimer laser (193, 248, 350 nm) treatments were performed on poly(etheretherketone) (PEEK). High fluence excimer laser irradiation induced efficient etching, mainly due to thermal effects. The irradiation with CO2 lasers and high fluence excimer lasers introduced limited changes in surface chemistry and morphology.Low fluence excimer laser irradiation, particularly at 193 nm and 248 nm, favored the occurence of photochemical phenomena. Surface chemical modifications leading to oxygen depletion and preferential elimination of the ketonic bridge were assessed. At the same time surface morphological alterations were found, diffraction effects led to cone-like structures while the redeposition of heavy oligomers caused the formation of debris on the surface.

Bei einem PMA-Gehalt von weniger als 46% hat die Mischung eine lamellare Struktur; ein zunehmender PMA-Anteil vergrößert die Langperiode. PMA bildet mit dem amorphen Anteil von PA-6 eine homogene Phase; Mikrodomänen werden nicht beobachtet.Mit zunehmendem PMA-Gehalt sinkt der Kristallinitätsindex. Gleichzeitig nimmt die Dicke der Übergangsschicht zwischen den kristallinen Regionen und der aus PMA und amorphem PA-6 bestehenden Phase zu. Bei hohem PMA-Gehalt verschwindet die lamellare Struktur.
    Notes: The results of investigations of the supermolecular structure of the mixture of a semicrystalline polymer polyamide-6 (PA-6) and of an amorphous one, poly(methacrylic acid) (PMA), are presented. The determination of the supermolecular structure was realized using the correlation functions and the interface distribution functions calculated from SAXS patterns. It was stated that the introduction of poly(methacrylic acid) results in a transformation of the γ-type crystalline structure into the α-type structure. Until the PMA content is less than 46%, the blend has a lamellar structure, and an increase in the PMA content causes an increase in the long period. PMA and the amorphous phase of PA-6 form a homogeneous phase, there are no microdomains of PMA.An increase in the PMA content results in a decrease of the crystallinity index. Simultaneously, the thickness of the transition layers between the crystalline regions and the phase composed of PMA and of the amorphous phase of PA-6 increases. When the content of PMA is large, the lamellar structure disappears.

    Description / Table of Contents: N-substituierte Maleinimide sind thermische Stabilisatoren für Hart-Polyvinylchlorid (PVC). Dies wurde durch Messung der Dehydrochlorierungsrate und des Ausmaßes der Verfärbung des Polymeren bei 180°C in Luft untersucht. Die Ergebnisse zeigen die höhere Stabilisierungswirkung dieser Produkte im Vergleich zu Stabilisatoren wie basisches Bleicarbonat, Dibutylzinnmaleat und Cadmium-Bariumstearat, die üblicherweise in der Industrie benutzt werden. Die Induktionszeit (Ts) steigt in dem Maße, in dem der positive Resonanzeffekt (+R) der Substituenten zunimmt. Ferner bewirken die untersuchten Stabilisatoren gegenüber Stearatstabilisatoren bessere Farbbeständigkeit der abgebauten Proben. Diese Stabilisatoreffektivität ist darauf zurückzuführen, daß der Stabilisator Radikale einfangen kann, die bei dem radikalischen Abbau von PVC entstehen. Die gute Farbstabilität resultiert aus der Fähigkeit des Stabilisators, mit den konjugierten Doppelbindungen, die durch den Abbau des PVC in der Polymerkette entstehen, in Wechselwirkung zu treten. Ein Mechanismus für die Wirkungsweise des Stabilisators wird vorgeschlagen.
    Notes: N-substituted maleimides have been investigated as thermal stabilizers for rigid polyvinylchloride (PVC) at 180°C in air by measuring the rate of dehydrochlorination and the extent of discoloration of the polymer. The results reveal the higher stabilizing efficiency of these products relative to basic lead carbonate, dibutyl tin maleate, and cadmium-barium stearate stabilizers commonly used in industry. The induction period (Ts) increases as a function of the positive resonance effect of the substituents (+R). Moreover, the investigated stabilizers impart better color stability for the degraded samples as compared with the stearate stabilizer. The stabilizer efficiencies are attributed to their radical trapping potency which intervenes with the radical degradation process of PVC, while the good color stability is due to the ability of the stabilizer to interact with the conjugated double bonds formed on the PVC chains as a result of degradation. A mechanism illustrating the stabilizer's action is proposed.

    Description / Table of Contents: The stress-strain behaviour of filament yarns has been determined by variation of strain rates from 10-1 up to 105%/s. Strain rates up to 10%/s are obtained with a tensile testing machine. The higher strain rates up to 105%/s are obtained with an apparatus using a falling weight by variation of the height of fall and the length of the yarn.Because of the high-speed impact and time of strain/influence down to 10-4 s together with the variation of the height of fall between 0,6 and 166 cm a profound discussion of errors is necessary.
    Notes: Kraft-Dehnungs-Graphen von Filamentgarnen für die Dehngeschwindigkeiten zwischen 10-1 und 105%/s werden ermittelt. Für die niedrigen Dehngeschwindigkeiten bis 10%/s wird eine übliche Zugprüfmaschine benutzt, die höheren Dehngeschwindigkeiten werden mit einer Fallschlagapparatur durch Variation der Fallhöhe und der Fadenlänge erreicht.Aufgrund der hohen Dehngeschwindigkeit und der Meßzeiten bis minimal 10-4 s sowie der Variation der Fallhöhe zwischen 0,6 und 166 cm treten Fehler auf, die eingehend diskutiert werden.

    Description / Table of Contents: Polyethylene terephthalate (PETP) multifilament yarns with different thermal history were used as testing materials.The stress-strain curves for strain rates from 0.1 up to 100 000%/s show that the maximum tensile force increases and the elongation decreases with increasing strain rate. However, there are differences for yarns with different thermal history. So a free of stress treated yarn shows less change of the maximum tensile force with increasing strain rate than a yarn treated at the same temperature but under stress. The elongation by the maximum tensile force shows the opposite behaviour. With increasing influence of the elongation rate to the force of rupture the ratio of the maximum tensile force and the relevant elongation increases faster.The initial slope (modulus) of the stress-strain curves of the multifilament yarn increases for all futed stresses and temperatures with the strain rate. The local minimum of the modulus curves shifts to higher modulus with increasing strain rate while the position of the minimum as a function of the elongation remains constant.
    Notes: Untersucht werden Polyethylenterephthalat (PETP)-Multifilamentgarne mit unterschiedlicher thermischer Vorgeschichte.Die Kraft-Dehnungs-Kurven für die Dehngeschwindigkeit von 0,1 bis 100 000%/s zeigen, daß die Höchstzugkraft mit der Dehngeschwindigkeit zunimmt und die Höchstzugkraftdehnung abnimmt. Für die Garne mit unterschiedlicher thermischer Vorgeschichte bestehen jedoch Unterschiede, was die Änderung der Höchstzugkraftund Höchstzugkraftdehnungswerte mit der Dehngeschwindigkeit betrifft. So weist ein spannungslos thermisch behandeltes Material eine geringere Änderung der Höchstzugkraft mit steigender Dehngeschwindigkeit auf als ein bei gleicher Temperatur, aber unter Spannung thermofixiertes Material. Die Höchstzugkraftdehnungswerte zeigen dagegen ein umgekehrtes Verhalten. Mit wachsendem Einfluß der Dehngeschwindigkeit auf die Bruchkraft nimmt das Verhältnis von Höchstzugkraft zu Höchstzugkraftdehnung stärker zu.Die Anfangssteigung, d. h. der Anfangsmodul der K-D-Kurven des Fadenmaterials, nimmt für alle Fixierspannungen und -temperaturen mit der Dehngeschwindigkeit zu. Das lokale Minimum der ersten Ableitung der K-D-Kurven (lokales Modulminimum) verlagert sich mit zunehmender Dehngeschwindigkeit zu höheren Modulwerten, die Lage des Minimums als Funktion der Dehnung bleibt jedoch konstant.

    Description / Table of Contents: Durch Substitution von Chlor in PVC durch 3,6-Diamino-N-methyl-carbazol entsteht ein Kondensat, das in allen Lösungsmitteln für PVC unlöslich ist. Dieses Kondensat ist thermisch stabiler als PVC. Auch die dielektrischen Eigenschaften unterscheiden sich deutlich von denen von PVC. Die Sulfonierung des PVC-Carbazol-Kondensats liefert ein Kationenaustauscherharz mit SO3H- und COOH-Gruppen.
    Notes: The chlorine displacement reaction between PVC and N-methylcarbazole-3,6-diamine affords a condensate which is insoluble in all possible solvents of PVC. The overall thermal stability of this condensate is appreciably higher than that of PVC. The dielectric behavior is also significantly different from that of unmodified PVC. Sulfonation of the PVC-carbazole condensate affords a cation-exchange resin with —SO3H and —COOH functional moieties.

    Notes: Es wird über die Herstellung von linearen, hochmolekularen Epoxid-Amin-Additionspolymeren und telechelen Prepolymeren berichtet, die mit Dimethyl(aminomethyl)phosphinoxid (DMAPO) ein flammwidriges Kettenglied in der Polymerkette enthalten.

    Description / Table of Contents: Eine Synthesemethode für modifizierte Aminhärter mit β-Hydroxyurethanbindungen wird vorgestellt. Die physikalischen und chemischen Eigenschaften der modifizierten Polyamine, wie Viskosität und Reaktivität gegenüber einem Epoxidharz, wurden untersucht. Im Vergleich zu einem unmodifizierten Amin wurde eine Verkürzung der Gel- und Härtungszeit in Verbindung mit einer Verringerung des exothermen Effekts während der Härtung eines Epoxidharzes gefunden. Mechanische und thermomechanische Untersuchungen zeigten einen Anstieg der Erweichungstemperaturen, der Härte und der Festigkeitseigenschaften, wie Zugfestigkeit, Scher- und Schälfestigkeit, bei den mit modifizierten Aminen gehärteten Epoxidharzen im Vergleich zu einem Harz, das mit einem unmodifizierten Amin vernetzt wurde.
    Notes: A method of obtaining modified amine curing agents containing β-hydroxyurethane linkages is presented. The basic physical and chemical properties of the modified polyamines, such as viscosity and reactivity towards epoxy resins, have been studied.A shortening of the gel and curing times in addition to a decrease of the exothermic effect accompanying the curing of an epoxy resin was found in comparison with the system containing an unmodified amine. Mechanical and thermomechanical studies showed a rise of the deflection temperature, hardness and strength features such as tensile strength, shear and peel strength for epoxy resins crosslinked with modified curing agents in comparison with those parameters obtained for resins crosslinked with the initial amines.

    Description / Table of Contents: Untersucht wurde die Verträglichkeit von polymeren Chlorkohlenwasserstoffen mit verschiedener Comonomersequenzordnung. Eine erste Copolymerenserie (“PVCx”) wurde durch Reduktion von Polyvinylchorid hergestellt, eine zweite Serie (“PECx”) durch Chlorieren von Polyethylen. Die Polymer-Legierungen PECx/PECy, PVCx/PVCy und PVCx/PECy wurden bei 30°C und 110°C mit einer Lösungsfilmmethode analysiert. Im System PECx/PECy nimmt die Mischbarkeit mit steigendem Chlorgehalt der Copolymeren stetig zu. Bei den Systemen PVCx/PVCy und PVCx/PECy zeigt sich im Bereich um x = 1 eine erhöhte Tendenz zur Phasenseparation, die auf die bessere Comonomersequenzordnung der Copolymeren PVCx zurückzuführen ist. Im letzteren System ist diese Tendenz so stark, daß Polyvinylchlorid (PVCx=1) sogar mit dem chlorierten Polyethylen PECx=1, das die gleiche Bruttozusammensetzung hat, nicht mischbar ist.
    Notes: The compatibility of chlorinated hydrocarbon polymers of two different comonomer sequence orders was investigated. One series of copolymers (“PVCx”) was prepared via reduction of polyvinylchloride, the other (“PECx”) via chlorination of polyethylene in solution. The blends PECx/PECy, PVCx/PVCy and PVCx/PECy were analyzed with a film casting method at 30°C and 110°C. Miscibility increases in the system PECx/PECy steadily in the direction of increasing chlorine content. Due to the comonomer sequence order in the copolymers PVCx the systems PVCx/PVCy and PVCx/PECy show in the range around x = 1 an extra effect favouring phase separation. In the latter system this effect is so strong that polyvinylchloride (PVCx = 1) is even incompatible with the chlorinated polyethylene PECx=1 although both have the same overall composition.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wurden Cellulosenitratproben (CN-85) untersucht. Die Leitfähigkeit stieg für ungetemperte Proben mit der Temperatur an und nahm mit zunehmender Temperzeit ab. Die Aktivierungsenergie ist bei allen Proben gleich, sie beträgt 2.1 eV in einem Temperaturbereich von 322 bis 385 K. Das Verhalten ist metallisch (dσ/dT) 〈 0 für Temperzeiten, die mehr als 24 h betragen. Bei den gemessenen thermisch stimulierten Strömen (TSC) verschob sich die Lage des Maximums mit zunehmender Aufheizgeschwindigkeit leicht gegen höhere Temperaturen. Die Aktivierungsenergie im Fall des TSC Stromes betrug 0.21 eV, unabhängig von der Aufheizgeschwindigkeit. Die dipolare Relaxationszeit und scheinbare Dielektrizitätskonstante wurden theoretisch berechnet und als Funktion der Temperatur untersucht.
    Notes: The investigated samples were cellulose nitrate CN-85. The conductivity increases with temperature for unannealed samples and decreases with increasing time of annealing for annealed samples.The activation energy is equal for all samples and amounts to 2.1 eV in a temperature range from 322 to 385 K. The behaviour is metallic (dσ/dT) 〈 0 for times of annealing larger than 24 h. The TSC current was measured. The position of the maximum slightly shifted towards higher temperatures with increasing rate of heating. The activation energy in the case of the TSC current was 0.21 eV and independent of the rate of heating. The dipolar relaxation time and imaginary dielectric constant were calculated theoretically and studied as a function of temperature.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wurde ein Acrylester-Acrylimid-Copolymeres entwickelt, welches als Additiv in Mischungen mit PVC dessen Gebrauchstemperatur erhöht, ohne andere Eigenschaften des PVC, insbesondere die Transparenz, negativ zu beeinflussen.
    Notes: A major disadvantage of PVC is its low glass transition temperature which limits the service temperature of finished articles to about 70°C. An additive has been developed that can be formulated with PVC to form blends with increased service temperature. With proper formulating, higher heat distortion temperatures can be achieved without sacrificing other properties including clarity. This is especially important in clear PVC applications where no increase in haze is noted with the addition of the acrylic/imide copolymer.

    Description / Table of Contents: With the help of a novel test method, diffusion-coefficients of ammonia were determined in 22 transparent, filmforming polymers at room temperature. This method is based upon the UV-VIS-spectroscopically followable reversible reaction of ammonia with 4-nitro phenol to a Meisenheimer-complex.The dye-building reaction was studied and analyzed by a simple approximation of the diffusion equation. Diffusion coefficients obtained are in good agreement with the few available data in the literature.The dependence of the NH3-diffusion coefficients upon the polymer structure corresponds with the obtained diffusion coefficients, which are known for permanent gases.The described method allows the measurement of diffusion coefficients, which are distinguished up to three orders of magnitude, without any problem (ethylcellulose: 1,07 · 10-7 cm2 · s-1; poly(vinylalcohol): 0.9 · 10-10 cm2 · s-1).
    Notes: Mit Hilfe einer neuartigen Untersuchungsmethode wurden die Diffusionskoeffizienten von Ammoniak (NH3) in 22 transparenten filmbildenden Polymeren bei Raumtemperatur bestimmt. Die Methode beruht auf der UV-VIS-spektroskopisch verfolgbaren reversiblen Reaktion von Ammoniak mit 4-Nitrophenol zu einem 4-Nitrophenolat-Ammoniak-Meisenheimer-Komplex.Die Farbbildungsreaktion im Polymerfilm wurde untersucht und anhand einer einfachen Näherung der Diffusionsgleichung ausgewertet. Die erhaltenen Diffusionskoeffizienten stimmen sehr gut mit den wenigen verfügbaren Literaturwerten überein.Die Abhängigkeit der NH3-Diffusionskoeffizienten von der Polymerstruktur ist weitgehend der für permanente Gase bekannten analog.Die beschriebene Methode erlaubt problemlos, Diffusionskoeffizienten zu messen, die sich bis zu drei Größenordnungen unterscheiden (Ethylcellulose: 1,07 · 10-7 cm2 · s-1; Polyvinylalkohol: 0,9 · 10-10 cm2 · s-1).

    Notes: The proteodermatan sulfate (PDS) of bovine skin is a low molecular weight proteoglycan with a molecular structure consisting of a protein chain and a sulfated polysaccharide chain covalently linked at the 4-serine of the protein. Static and dynamic laser light scattering methods have been used to determine the weight-average molecular weight, Mw, z-average radius of gyration, Rgz′, and z-average translational diffusion coefficient, Dt,z°, of bovine skin PDS. We have also characterized the two components of PDS, i.e., the protein core and the dermatan sulfate (DS) chain. (The latter contained an N-terminal-linked penta- or tetrapeptide.) Interpretation of the PDS data is complicated by the block copolymer nature of its structure. When appropriate corrections are made, our results indicate that Mw for PDS monomer is 62,000 when dissolved in 4M guanidine hydrochloride (GdnHCl), and increases to 610,000 in 0.15M NaCl. Mw for the core protein in 4M GdnHCl is 39,000, and this also increases substantially to 650,000 in 0.15M NaCl. In contrast, Mw for the DS chain is 24,000 in 0.15M NaCl, indicating that there is minimal self-association of DS in 0.15M NaCl. Thus we conclude that the self-association of PDS involves the protein core. Comparison of Rgz and Rh, the average hydrodynamic radius, suggests that trace amounts of aggregation persist for the PDS and its core protein even in 4M GdnHCl. This conclusion is supported by evaluation of the second moments of the dynamic light scattering correlation function. Comparisons of the observed Dt,z° for PDS with predicted values using hydrodynamic theory are consistent with a “lollipop” conformation for the molecule.

    Notes: The extent of correlations between functional groups that can form hydrogen bonds with solvent molecules has been estimated. From the observed distance distribution of functional groups on the surfaces of several proteins, and from the extent of correlation between pairs of such functional grups, we conclude that the assumption of independence of functional groups made in part I is probably a good approximation. The reason is that even when correlations exist there is, on average, cancellation of the positive and negative correlations. The relevance of hydrogen bonding with the solvent to the relative stability of different conformers of biopolymers is also indicated.

    Notes: By use of agarose gel electrophoresis, the sieving of spherical particles in agarose gels has been quantitated and modeled for spheres with a radius (R) between 13.3 and 149 mm. For quantitation, the electrophoretic mobility has been determined as a function of agarose percentage (A). Because a previously used model of sieving [D. Rodbard and A. Chrambach (1970) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 65, 970-977] was found incompatible with some of these data, alternative models have been tested. By use of an underivatized agarose, two models, both based on the assumption of a single effective pore radius (PE) for each A, were found to yield PE values that were independent of R and that were in agreement with values of PE obtained independently (PE = 118 nm × A-0.74): sieving by altered hydrodynamics in a cylindrical tube of radius, PE, and sieving by steric exclusion from a circular hole of radius, PE. The same analysis applied to a 6.5% hydroxyethylated commercial agarose yileded a steeper PE vs A plot and also agreement of the above tow models with the data. The PE vs A plot was significantly altered by both further hydroxyethylation and factors that cause variation in the electro-osmosis found in commercial agarose.

    Notes: Time resolved x-ray solution scattering measurements were made during thermal denaturation of DNA from various sources in the temperature range of 20-90°C. Preliminary results on the influence of fragement length, ionic strength, and origin of the DNA on the time course of the scattering are described. Interpretation is based on model calculations of the scattering patterns. The resluts indicate that, for long DNA fragments at very low ionic strength, the melting process is a continuous phenomenon over the whole temperature range. It is accompanied by a progressive decrease of the radius of gyration of the cross section and of the mass per unit length. For short fragments of 146 base pair nucleosomal core DNA, stiffening of the DNA appears to precede a sharp melting transition.

    Notes: The diffusive approach in the optimized Rouse-Zimm approximation to segment relaxation in the nanosecond time domain (ORZLD) is extended to consider chains of nonequivalent units as occurring in biological macromolecules. The correlation times for second-order time correlation functions of each virtual bond on the chain are calculated for some homopolypeptides, and random and regular copolypeptides. The expected correlation times for biological macromolecules organized in multiple domains are discussed via a simple model of the ORZLD hierarchy. Dynamic bond correlation times are compared with static local presistence lengths.

    Notes: The macrolide antibiotic amphotericin B (AmB) forms an inclusion complex with γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CDx), resulting in a molecularly dispersed state of the drug. The state of aggregation of AmB in different solvents has been studied by absorption (uv-vis) and CD spectroscopy. While in aqueous solutions AmB forms colloid-like multimolecular aggregates, in the presence of γ-CDx true solutions can be prepared, which show similar spectral properties as AmB dissolved in organic solvents. The AmB-γ-CDx complex can be isolated as an amorphous, stable, water-soluble powder, indicatin that γ-CDx is a good carrier for the solubilization of this antibiotic. Using γ-CDx as a carrier, the danger of precipitation of the drug during parenteral or intravenous administration can be largely reduced.

    Notes: The understanding, on a molecular level, of the mechanisms responsible for the improved separation in DNA gel electrophoresis when using modulated electric fields requires detailed information about conformational distribution and dynamics in the DNA/gel system. The orientational order due to electrophoretic migration (“electrophoretic orientation”) is an interesting piece of information in this context that can be obtained through linear dichroism spectroscopy [M. Jonsson, B. Åkerman, and B. Nordén, (1988) Biopolymers 27, 381-414]. The technique permits measurement of the orientation factor S of DNA (S = 1 corresponds to perfect orientation) within an electrophoretic zone in the gel during the electrophoresis. It is reported that the degree of orientation of T2 DNA [170 kilo base pairs (kpb)] is considerable (S = 0.17 in 1% agarose at 10 V/cm) compared to relatively modest orientations of short fragments found earlier (for 23-kbp DNA, S = 0.03 in 1% agarose at 10 V/cm), showing that large DNA coils are substantially deformed during the migration. Growth and relaxation dynamics of the orientational order of the T2 DNA are also reported, as functions of gel concentration (0.3-2%), electric field strength (0-40 V/cm), and pulse characteristics.The rise profile of the DNA orientation, when applying a constant field, is a nonmonotonic function that displays a pronounced overshoot, followed by a minor undershoot, before it reaches steady-state orientation (after 12 s in 1% agarose, 9 V/cm). The orientational relaxation in absence of field shows a multiexponential decay in a time region of some 10 s, when most of the DNA anisotropy has disappeared. A surprising phenomenon is a memory over minutes of the DNA/gel system to previous pulses: with two consecutive rectangular pulses (of the same polarity), the orientational overshoot and undershoot as a response to the second pulse are significantly reduced compared to the first pulse. The time required to recover 90% of their amplitudes is typically 1200 s (1% agarose, 9 V/cm), which may be compared to the time required to relax 90% of the DNA orientation, which is only 6 s. The major part of the over- and undershoot recovery is thus a reorganization of a system in which DNA is already randomly oriented.The different response amplitudes and relaxation times, including the amplitude and recovery time of the overshoot, of the orientational order of DNA in the electrophoretic gel have been studied as functions of gel concentration and field strength. The results are discussed against relevant theories of polymer dynamics.

    Notes: We investigated the structure of silk fibroin dissolved in water and in water-organic solvent mixtures by CD and small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS). CD spectra indicated a disordered secondary structure in water and a β-sheet conformation in aqueous organic solvents, such as methanol, dioxane, and trifluoroethanol (in trifluoroethanol a transient form evolving toward β-sheet conformation was seen just after dissolution). The SAXS technique indicated the presence of fibroin particles of lamellar shape. The molecular weight was 188,000 daltons in water and 302,000 daltons in aqueous methanol.

    Notes: A thermally induced left- to right-handed helical interconversion for the self-complementary tetradeoxynucleotide d(CGCG) has been observed in the presence of NaCl at concentrations from 1.5 to 2.25M. Analysis of the Raman spectrum of d(CGCG) in aqueous solution as a function of temperature indicates that at low temperature a left-handed Z-helical form is the predominant species. An increase in temperature results in a decrease in the population of the left-handed form and an increase in the population of the right-handed form. Further elevation in temperature results in extensive disruption of base stacking and a loss of secondary structure. This unstacking presumably represents dissociation to a single-stranded structure. The data suggest that a temperature-dependent Z to B to single-strand transition occurs under the conditions employed. A direct Z to single-strand conversion was not identified. In contrast to previous examples, the thermally induced left- to right-handed helical conversion for d(CGCG) can occur in the absence of chemically modified nucleic acid bases, alcohol solutions, or divalent ions.

    Notes: We present the general secular equation for three-state lattice models for the cooperative binding of large ligands to a one-dimensional lattice. In addition, a closed-form expression for the isotherm is also obtained, that can be used with all values of the cooperativity parameter ω(0 〈 ω 〈 ∞) thus eliminating the need for multiple equations.

    Notes: Complexation of positively charged sites in a protein with the negative DNA phosphate groups shields the phosphate charges. This diminishes interstrand electrostatic repulsions, which stabilizes the duplex. When phosphate shidlding is present in one DNA strand only, the conformation of this strand changes due to a decrease of intrastrand phosphate-phosphate repulsions. This destabilizes the duplex since then the strands differ in conformation. A thermodynamic model is formulated to describe this stabilization/destabilization effect in terms of changed enthalpies and entropies of hybridization. It is found that protein complexation with one DNA strand can indeed lower the TM value of a duplex. The model is applied to the action of helicases (replication), RNA polymerases (transcription), and restriction endonucleases. Mechanisms with unilateral charge shielding are proposed for their duplex-destabilizing properties.

    Notes: A theory of equilibrium denaturation of proteins is suggested. According to this theory, a cornerstone of protein denaturation is disruption of tight packing of side chains in protein core. Investigation of this disruption is the object of this paper. It is shown that this disruption is an “all-or-none” transition (independent of how compact is the denatured state of a protein and independent of the protein-solvent interactions) because expansion of a globule must exceed some threshold to release rotational isomerization of side chains. Smaller expansion cannot produce entropy compensation of nonbonded energy loss; this is the origin of a free-energy barrier (transition state) between the native and denatured states. The density of the transition state is so high that the solvent cannot penetrate into protein in this state. The results obtained in this paper make it possible to present in the following paper a general phase diagram of protein molecule in solution.

    Notes: The magnitude and uniformity of the torsion elastic constant (α) of linear and supercoiled pBR322 DNAs are measured in 3 mM Tris as a function of added chloroquine/basepair ratio (chl/bp) by studying the fluorescence polarization anisotropy of intercalated ethidium dye. The time-resolved FPA is measured using a picosecond dye-laser for excitation and time-correlated single-photon counting detction. For both linear and supercoiled DNAs, α remains uniform except at the very highest chl/bp ratio examined. For the linear DNA, α decreases from 5.0 × 10-12 dyne-cm at chl/bp = 0 to about 3.5 × 10-12 dyne-cm at chl/bp = 0.5, and remains at that value up to chl/bp = 5, whereupon it increases back up to its original value. For the supercoiled DNA, α remains constant at about 5.2 × 10-12 dyne-cm from chl/bp = 0 up to chl/bp = 5, whereupon it increases in parallel with the linear DNA. The effect of chloroquine on the secondary structure, torsion constant, and torsional dynamics evidently differs substantially between linear and supercoiled DNAs, even under conditions where the supercoiled DNA is completely relaxed and both DNAs bind the same amount of dye. This strongly contradicts any notion that the local structures of linear and relaxed supercoiled DNA/dye complexes with the same binding ratio are identical. The increase in apparent α at chl/bp = 5 for both DNAs may be due to stacking of the chloroquine in the major groove and consequent stiffening of the filament.

    Notes: Conformational transitions of basic sequential polytripeptides (Lys-Ala-Leu)n, (Arg-Ala-Ala)n, (Arg-Leu-Ala)n, and (Arg-Ala-Leu)n, induced by elevated salt concentrations and/or temperatures in aqueous solutions, were investigated by CD, sedimentation equilibrium, and viscometry. The behavior of (Lys-Ala-Leu)n was compared with that of the sequential isomer (Lys-Leu-Ala)n, studied previously. It was found that both polypeptides are highly helical with a tendency to aggregate in high salt solutions. Although the hydrophobic interactions between Lys and Leu residues play an important role in both cases, the final effect on helix stabilization and aggregation is different. The Arg-containing polypeptides were found to assume the α-helical conformation. Compared to the Lys-containing polypeptides (Lys-Ala-Leu)n and (Lys-Leu-Ala)n, a very low tendency to aggregate was observed.

    Notes: Infrared vibrational CD (VCD) of a small peptide, L-alanyl-L-alanyl-L-alanine (Ala3), and a peptide model, N-acetyl-L-alanine-N′-methyl-amide (AAMA), in the 1550-1750-cm-1 region has been observed. The “coupled oscillator” VCD feature observed for Ala3 in the amide I region is interpreted in terms of a solution structure stabilized by the electrostatic interaction of the zwitterionic groups. No such interactions are possible in basic aqueous solution of Ala3 nor in AAMA in neutral solution. Thus, the coupled oscillator features are lost in the latter two cases, indicating the absence of a simple stabilized conformation.

    Notes: A detailed description of the two observed solution conformations of the pentapeptide lactone fragment of actinomycin D is presented using the distance constraints obtained from two-dimensional nuclear Overhauser enchancement spectra in combination with minimum energy calculations. Low energy conformational states that are compatible with the experimental distances are found for each of the two conformers. For one conformer, an all trans peptide bond conformation is found with no intramolecular hydrogen bonds. For the other conformer, the D-Val-Pro and Pro-Sar peptide bonds were cis; this solution conformation is the same as that found in both the crystal structure of the pentapeptide lactone as well as of the native actinomycin D itself. These results are discussed in terms of the combined influence of conformation and the effects of mutual intramolecular association of the pentapeptide lactone moieties in native actinomycin D on its cytotoxic activity.

    Notes: We study the effect of electric field intensity and agarose gel concentration on the anomalous electrophoretic mobility recently predicted by the biased reptation model and experimentally observed for linear DNA fragments electrophoresed in continuous electric fields. We show that high fields and low agarose concentrations eliminate the physical mechanism responsible for anomalous DNA mobility and band inversion, in good agreement with theory, thus restoring the monotonic mobility-size relationship necessary for unambiguous interpretation of the results of DNA gel electrophoresis.

    Notes: The vibrational contribution to the free energy, entropy, and the temperature factors of the different atoms in the unit cell are calculated using the method of helix lattice dynamics for the DNA homopolymer poly(dG · poly(dC)) in the B conformation. These results are compared to other theoretical calculations and the temperature (B) factors are compared to experiment as well. The problems encountered in using small molecule approximations to describe B factors in DNA like long chain molecules are discussed and a corrected estimate of the temperature factors are presented. Significant differences are found between the different theoretical approaches as reflected in the results of temperature factor calculations.

    Notes: The charging and discharging currents were investigated in a synthetic melanin sample. The presence of long-lasting dielectric relaxation was established. The steady state was reached after a long time, from 103 to 105 s, which depends both on temperature and voltage.The temperature dependence of polarization was of an activation character (Eα = 0.67 eV). The kind of electrode material did not influence the current curves.

    Notes: The progressive periodate oxidation of glycosaminoglycans (GAG), including hyaluronate (HA), chondroitins (CH) (chondroitin, chondroitin 4- and 6-sulfate), dermatan sulfate (DS), and keratan sulfate (KS), were monitored by CD and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a size-exclusion column. The rate of oxidation also was measured and calculated using first- and second-order kinetics, and the data appear to fit better with first-order kinetics. In both HA and CH, the n - π* amide band at 208 nm decreases in intensity upon oxidation, but in HA it becomes positive after 16 h of periodate treatment. In CH, the band disappears, and the π - π* amide band below 200 nm becomes optically active. Concomitantly, a second negative band near 290 nm appears for these two oxidized GAG. Oxidation causes a slight change in the CD of DS. It ordinarily displays a very weak n - π* band at 210 nm, but instead shows an intense π - π* amide band near 190 nm. CD of KS remains unaffected by periodate. Kinetic studies, however, show a higher oxidation rate for DS than HA and CH. With the exception of KS, all other oxidized polymers shown an apparent decrease in molecular weight (higher peak retention time) in HPLC analysis. Both CD and HPLC results have been attributed to a major conformational cahange of HA and CH, and a minor one for DS. The ease and extent of periodate oxidation as well as the changes in molecular properties following periodate treatmenat are critically dependent on the changes in molecular properties following periodate treatment are critically dependent on the configuration of the individual GAG rather than the oxidation rate. There is a distinct difference in the conformational change between HA and CH, as manifested by their dichroic behavior, that was attributed to the equatorial disposition of C-4 hydroxyl group in HA and axial disposition CH.

    Notes: Monte Carlo methods have been used to simulate internal motions of aromatic protons of an oligonucleotide at the nanosecond time scale. Each proton is allowed to fluctuate about its equilibrium position. The longitudinal cross-relaxation rates of such a system of spins have been determined by computing the appropriate correlation functions. Then the interproton distances have been deduced according to the procedure generally used in two-dimensional nmr techniques (nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy - NOESY) and compared to the true values. The influence of the amplitude A and of the internal rotational diffusion constant Dint characterizing the dynamics of the system has been checked for in-phase and for uncorrelated motions. It is shown that for the investigated models the distances deduced from NOESY experiments may be under or overestimated, depending strongly on the values of A and Dint. Furthermore, the cross-relaxation rate of a couple of protons is very sensitive to the correlation level of the motions of both protons.

    Notes: To verify the possibility of developing a ligand delivery system which is controlled by light pulses, we synthesized copolymers of N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide (1) containing sidechains terminated in ligands (Boc-Gly, fluorescein, tetramethylrhodamine) bound via photocleavable 2-nitrobenzyl groups. Copolymers in solution were exposed to light of wavelength ≍ 360 nm which resulted in release of the bound ligands. Depending on the experimental conditions (type of solvent, presence of oxygen) changes in the structure of released fluorochromes were observed (photofading effect). These effects were quantified by determining the binding constants of released modified fluorochromes with monoclonal antifluorescyl anti-bodies.

    Notes: Intramolecularly crosslinked macromolecules (ICM) from unsaturated polyesters (UP) and styrene, respectively from technical divinylbenzene (t-DVB), were prepared by emulsion copolymerization (ECP). Saturated polyesters of different compositions and molar masses between 1200 and 2400 were used as emulsifiers (ESP). The influence of molar mass and structure at various concentrations of the ESP on yield, number and diameter of the ICM and their composition was studied. For comparison, also sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was used as emulsifier.

    Notes: The reactions of a set of organoalkaline compounds with trans-β-carotene (Car) were studied in solution (using UV/Vis, ESR, and mass spectroscopy) and compared with the reactions of the same set with insoluble polyacetylene. It was shown that the naphthalene radical ion and the dicarbanionic dimer of 1,1-diphenylethylene, 1,1,4,4-tetraphenyl-1,4-butanediide, react with Car by a simple electron transfer leading to Car radical ion and dianion. This dianion is protonated by methanol mainly at carbon 7 or 7′. On the contrary of diphenylalkyllithium compounds add to Car double bonds. This addition of 1 mol of diphenylalkyllithium per Car takes place mainly at the central double bond. sec-Butyllithium (sec-BuLi) reacts also by addition to Car. The addition products are in some cases instable and decompose to radical ions through a non-elucidated mechanism. These transfer or addition reactions with Car, as well as the exclusive electron transfer observed with polyacetylene, are rationalized on the basis of the relative redox potentials of reactants.

    Notes: The paper deals with modelling the transport of magnesium and calcium ions in the cell wall of Gram-positive bacteria. The model compound, i. e. 2-ethylhexylpoly(trimethylene phosphate)Structure-based IUPAC nomenclature: α-2-Ethylhexyl-ω-hydroxypoly[oxy(hydroxyphosphonol)oxytrimethylene]. (EPTP), was synthesized in order to mimic the transport mediated by lipoteichoic acids. It was found that EPTP can transport preferentially magnesium ions in an ion exchange-diffusion process with the counter-transport of hydrogen ions.

    Notes: This paper concentrates on the effect of introducing hydrogen bonding into otherwise immiscible blends on their miscibility and morphology. 1,1,1,3,3,3-Hexafluoro-2-hydroxypropyl-containing units are incorporated in polystyrene which is then mixed with carbonyl-containing polymers such as poly(methyl methacrylate) and poly(butyl acrylate). The infrared study confirms the formation of hydrogen bonding and shows that the frequency shifts of hydroxyl stretching caused by the H-bonds are independent on whether the hydroxyl-containing units are in the monomer or connected to polystyrene or polyisoprene chains and whether they are randomly distributed along the chains or only located at the ends of the polymers. Hydrogen bonding in the blends dramatically enhances miscibility judged by differential scanning calorimetry and transmission electron miscroscopy (TEM). TEM observations reveal apparent and regular variations of the morphology in the blends with the content of the hydroxyl-containing groups, which implies that the morphological features of the blends, such as size of the dispersed phase, or extent of interpenetrating between the components are controllable simply by changing the structure and/or amount of the introduced groups forming the specific interaction in the blends.

    Notes: The isothermal crystallization kinetics, the morphology and melting behaviour of blends of poly(tetramethylene terephthalate) {poly(butylene terephthalate), (PBT)} with a thermotropic liquid-crystalline polyester, poly(decamethylene 4,4′-terephthaloyldioxydibenzoate) (HTH10), were studied in the composition range 0 - 50 wt.-% of HTH10 by optical microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. The spherulite growth rate and the overall crystallization rate of PBT from melt blends are markedly depressed by the presence of the mesomorphic component. Changes of superstructure and of primary nucleation density of PBT spherulites in the blends were observed. The analysis of the melting behaviour of these samples indicates that the stability of PBT crystals and their reorganization processes on heating are dependent on the blend composition. A decrease of the equilibrium melting temperature of PBT is found with increasing the amount of HTH10. According to previously reported investigations on the same system, the results are discussed in respect of the onset of interactions between the two polymers in the liquid state.

    Notes: Hydrosilylation reactions of 1-allyloxy-3-phenoxy-2-propanol (3) as model compound were carried out with α-dimethylsilyl-ω-hydrooligosiloxane (7; M̄n = 1200) in the presence of hexachloroplatinic acid. It was found that under stoichiometric conditions only 75--80% of the allyl groups were hydrosilylated, due to some isomerization of the allyl groups into vinyl groups, which do not undergo hydrosilylation. This isomerization could be shown to be sensitive to the type of the allyloxy structure. Thus, for example, allyloxybenzene does not undergo isomerization.

    Notes: GC-MS analysis of oligomers obtained by using a high concentration of chain transfer agents permits the identification and determination of the concentrations of all the compounds formed in the early propagation steps. From these data the exact structure of the starting chain end and the evaluation of a series of kinetic and probabilistic parameters can be obtained, thus allowing a more detailed description of the polymerization mechanism. Applying this method to the copolymerization of styrene (1) and methyl methacrylate (2), a value of 6 was obtained for the ratio of the reinitiation rate constants kr1/kr2 in the presence of 1-butanethiol at 60°C.

    Notes: The substitution reaction of PVC with sodium dimethyldithiocarbamate (NaDC) and sodium azide (NaN3) was performed in cyclohexanone and dimethylformamide at various temperatures. The degree of compositional heterogeneity was estimated and found to be important up to conversions of about 0,5%, but to vanish afterwards. The evolution of unreacted iso, hetero and syndiotactic triads was measured by 13C NMR spectroscopy. For conversions of at least up to 12%, the content of both the isotactic and heterotactic triads was found to decrease, relative to the syndiotactic ones, but at different relative rates depending on the nucleophile. From these results, together with the kinetic ones, it is concluded that the reaction proceeds by a stereoselective mechanism. The results are discussed on the basis of a hypothesis concerning the role of the local triad conformations in PVC that contain the TT isotactic diad conformation. The results enable the selective substitution of PVC with NaDC and NaN3, which may be used as a useful tool to prepare specific graft copolymers based on PVC.

    Notes: Poly{1-[4-(2-chloroethyl)phenyl]ethylene} (3) was synthesized by bulk polymerization of 4-(2-chloroethyl)styrene (6) in two steps from commercial products. The polymer was characterized by means of GPC (weight-average molecular weight M̄w = 85 000 and number-average molecular weight M̄n = 63 500), 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The first stage of thermal degradation begins at 290°C and ends at about 410°C. The overall activation energy was calculated to be 43 kcal · mol-1 (180 kJ · mol-1). The solid residue was crosslinked and insoluble. The volatile products, identified by gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS), were chiefly hydrogen chloride, dichloromethane and monomer. In a strongly basic medium, nucleophilic substitution of chlorine was achieved without elimination.

    Notes: The reaction of catenapoly(diphenoxy-λ5-phosphazene) (1) with SO3 in 1,2-dichloroethane at 15°C, applying a mole ratio m = [SO3]/[--P(OC6H5)2N - ] ≤ 1,0 and subsequent quenching with water, leads to catenapoly(diphenoxy-λ5-phosphazene-co-diphenoxy-λ5-phosphazenium hydrogen sulfate) (2) containing up to 57% protonated nitrogen. At m 〉 1,0 C-sulfonation occurs, resulting in the formation of water-soluble catenapoly[diphenoxy-λ5-phosphazene-co-diphenoxy-λ5-phosphazenium hydrogen sulfate-co-bis(sulfophenoxy)-λ5-phosphazenium hydrogen sulfate] (3). The latter can be converted into catenapoly[diphenoxy-λ5-phosphazene-co-bis(sulfophenoxy)-λ5-phosphazene] (4b) by treatment with alkali and subsequent percolating through a cation exchange resin. Analytical results show that C-sulfonation is preceded by the formation of a polymer-SO3 donor-acceptor complex.

    Notes: Principles and new approaches to the synthesis of functional poly(ethylene oxide)s (PEO) are considered. It could be shown that quantitative functionalization during initiation or deactivation of living polymers cannot be reached independently of the demands to achieve a desired molecular weight of the polymer. This is illustrated by the data of the synthesis of dinitrophenyl derivatives of PEO (molecular weights from 3 · 103 to about 105) which are synthetic immunogenes. Vinyl ether macromonomers of PEO with molecular weights in the range of 750-3000 were also synthesized by anionic polymerization of ethylene oxide with trimethylamine as initiator. These macromonomers were used for effective grafting of PEO onto a solid surface, grafted PEO being able to selectively binding alkali salts from the solution. Values of binding constants were evaluated.

    Notes: We have found, that heteropolyacids (HPA) are efficient initiators of cationic polymerizations, including polymerizations of cyclic ethers and acetals, providing high-molecular-weight polymers. In several systems (e. g. THF, 1,3-dioxolane) the degree of polymerization is given by the ratio of concentrations of monomer and initiator, as for the living system. In the polymerization of cyclic formaldehyde trimer: 1,3,5-trioxane, the comparable polymerization rates may be obtained with ≈ 25 times less an initiator consumption on weight basis (≈ 103 times less on molar basis) than for typical initiators like BF3 · OR2.

    Notes: The effects of several variables on the gelation behaviour of the chitosan/glutaraldehyde system have been studied. The rate of gelation is increased by increase in concentration of either chitosan or glutaraldehyde, or by an increase in temperature, and reduced by an increase in the concentration of acetic acid. Addition of a number of neutral electrolytes also causes an increase in the rate of gelation, the increase being larger the greater the activity coefficient of the electrolyte. UV/visible and NMR spectra of glutaraldehyde, acetaldehyde and crotonaldehyde, together with those of their 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine derivatives, indicate that only a very small proportion (〈0,15%) of the aldehyde groups have undergone an aldol condensation reaction leading to α,β-unsaturated aldehyde groups. This, together with other evidence, suggests that the cross-linking mechanism involves formation of Schiff's base structures rather than Michael-type adducts as previously postulated.

    Notes: Low-molecular-weight phthalocyaninatocobalt compounds 2a-d and polymeric phthalocyaninatocobalt derivatives 4, 6a, b were prepared on the surface of the inorganic carriers SiO2 or γ-Al2O3 and of active charcoal, the range of loading being 11,9 - 0,2 wt.-%. The oxidation of 2-mercaptoethanol in an aqueous solution at pH 9 was used as a model reaction for demercaptizations of petroleum fractions with phthalocyanines on carriers as heterogeneous catalysts. The catalytic activity, related to the phthalocyanine content, was found to increase with increasing dispersion of the complex on the carrier. The influence of the type of support on the activity is given by the following order: SiO2 〈 γ-Al2O3 〈 Norit charcoal. Polymeric phthalocyanines exhibit a higher catalytic activity as compared with low-molecular-weight phthalocyanines. The mechanism of the oxidation of the thiol is discussed.

    Notes: For producing hydrogen peroxide the suitability of stable polymeric nitroxyls as reaction carriers was investigated. These can be hydrogenated to the corresponding hydroxylamines, which are oxidized by oxygen exclusively to hydrogen peroxide and nitroxyls. The yield of hydrogen peroxide was determined in different solvents, at different reaction times and temperatures. Possible side reactions for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide were investigated. The activation energy for the oxidation of polymeric hydroxylamine with oxygen in DMSO was calculated to be 67 kJ/mol.

    Notes: By using an extremely high stereospecific catalyst, three kinds of copolymerizations were carried out with combinations of monomers which differ in the crystallinity of the homopolymers. Addition of a small quantity of comonomer to the homopolymerization systems producing very high crystalline polymers was found to cause a remarkable increase in the apparent polymerization rate as well as a marked decrease in the polymer crystallinity. Such an irregular increase in the polymerization activity was, however, not observed when a small amount of comonomer was added to the homopolymerization systems producing low-crystalline or amorphous polymers. These observations have led to the conclusion that resistance of monomer diffusion through the polymer film should be one of the significant parameters for the apparent polymerization rate when very high crystalline polymers, like high density polyethylene, isotactic polypropylene etc., are produced.

    Notes: Rate constants and equilibrium constants were determined for the addition of 1,1-diphenylethylene to living trimers of 2-vinylpyridine in THF having either a meso or a racemic diad adjacent to the carbanion center. The racemic isomer was shown to be slightly more reactive (≈40%) compared with the meso isomer and slightly less than the corresponding dimer. The living dimer of 2-vinylpyridine in turn is slightly more reactive than the meso trimer, but is five times less reactive compared to the lithio salt of 2-ethylpyridine. The changes in equilibrium constant were quite dramatic, the constant for lithio-2-ethylpyridine being about 100-200 times larger than for the living oligomers and about 2 600 times larger than that of the living polymer.

    Notes: Bis[4-bis(2,3-epoxypropylamino)phenyl]methane (3) was shown to undergo homopolymerization when heated without or with an accelerator such as N,N-dimethylbenzylamine (10). When 3 was polymerized without accelerator, no ether formation was found. A new type of curing process involving opening of the epoxy ring by reaction at the phenyl ring in ortho position to the tertiary amino substituent allows one to explain the formation of compounds containing the 3-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline moiety. The corresponding derivatives 4-7 were isolated for the first time and their structures established by different spectroscopic methods such as 1H, 13C, 2D δ-δ NMR, and FT-IR. Intermolecular reaction at the orthocarbon of the tertiary amino group with an epoxy group may explain the resin formation by curing 3 without accelerator. Polymerization of 3 with accelerator 10 led to polyetherification. This result may be explained in terms of difference in the reactivity of the tertiary amines 3 and 10 towards the epoxy group. The former gives an unstable “zwitterion” by reaction at the nucleophilic carbon, subsequently leading to the stable hydroquinoline system by proton transfer. The latter also gives an unstable “zwitterion” by reaction at the nucleophilic nitrogen, however, it induces epoxy ring-opening polymerization due to the lack of intramolecular stabilization. Moreover, the results suggest that the hydroxyl functions, formed in the absence of an accelerator, do not react with epoxides under the studied conditions.

The influence of pH, monomer concentration, absorbed light intensity Ia and chromium(VI) concentration on the polymerization rate Rp are reported. Two different domains are detected as a function of chromium(VI) concentration: At low concentration, where Rp increases with chromium concentration, a process of termination by mutual annihilation of the macroradicals accounts for the experimental dependence Rp ∝ [AAm]3/2 · Ia. At higher concentration, Rp decreases when the chromium concentration increases; a process of oxidative termination of the radicals by chromium(VI) is involved corresponding to a dependence Rp ∝ [AAm]2. Ia. The evolution of the polymer molecular weight as a function of the different parameters controlling the polymerization is described.

    Notes: Copolymers containing either 1,4-phenylenevinylene or 2,5-dimethoxy-1,4-phenylenevinylene units combined with 2,5-thienylenevinylene units were prepared in film form from precursor polymer films of the respective sulfonium salt polymers, which, in turn, were synthesized by the copolymerization of the respective bis(sulfonium salt) monomers. All of the copolymers could be “doped” with iodine to obtain films with high electrical conductivities and good air stability.

    Notes: A kinetic study of the initiation reaction of alkyne polymerization by a transition metal intramolecular coordinated carbene complex, was carried out. It showed that there is a slow disappearance of the initial carbene and simultaneously appearance of both active species and organic side-products. Their structures were determined by GC-MS. The apparent rate constants of both initiation and side-reactions were measured and the corresponding thermodynamic parameters established. According to the experimental results, a mechanism of the initiation reaction is proposed. In the first step a replacement of the intramolecular double bond of the initiator by the triple bond of a monomer molecule takes place and in the second step the insertion of the monomer. The resulting carbenic active species may lead either to organic products via cyclopropanation reaction or to a high-molecular-weight polymer.

    Notes: Melts of a commercial poly(methyl methacrylate) product and a commercial polystyrene were elongated homogeneously up to Hencky strains of ε 〉 4 by means of the rotary clamp technique. For this purpose, certain modifications to the rheometer were necessary which are described in detail. Both polymer melts show strain hardening, i. e. the elongational viscosities are higher than the threefold of the linear viscoelastic limiting viscosity measured in shear. The degree of hardening is very different: For the poly(methyl methacrylate) product the hardening is only small, and so are the recoverable portions of the total strains, whereas for the polystyrene the opposite is true. This different behaviour is connected with a difference of the linear viscoelastic relaxation spectra at long relaxation times. The test results can be described efficiently by the Lodge-Wagner rubberlike liquid constitutive equation.
