    Notes: Analytical and numerical studies are performed concerning the exclusion of the basis set superposition error (BSSE) from the SCF calculations of intermolecular interactions. Based on these studies a new procedure is proposed, which consists of the following steps: (1) determine the orbitals by the SCF scheme based on the recent “chemical Hamiltonian approach” (CHA-SCF method), i.e., excluding the delocalization effects caused by BSSE, and then (2) calculate the usual energy expectation value. (This gives results superior to those obtained by the previous nonsymmetric CHA energy formula.) The actual numerical calculations performed for different simple systems (He2, water dimer) by using various basis sets indicate that the CHA/CE (CHA with “conventional energy” formula) potential curves are well-balanced and are close to those obtained by the Boys-Bernardi (BB) method and usually (but not necessarily) go slightly beyond the latter. So our method gives results better than (or close to) those given by the BB method by performing only a single ∼N4 calculation at each geometrical arrangement of the system.

    Notes: The effect of electron correlation on the results of pseudopotential calculations was examined using a simple analytical semiempirical pseudopotential and a correlated floating-type one-center wave function. Investigations were performed for the XH alkali metal hydride molecules (X = Na, K, Rb, Cs). The inclusion of the electron correlation in the ground state proved important for the calculation of the dissociation and ionization energies, but it is less significant for the determination of the equilibrium nuclear distances. The ground state potential energy curves are also determined.

    Notes: Ab initio molecular orbital methods are employed to study the low-lying states of C3H+, SiC2H+, Si2CH+, and Si3H+. Special attention is paid to a comparative study between C3H+ and Si3H+. In both cases a 3B2 state is found to lie the lowest at the HF level, although inclusion of correlation effects favor a linear structure (1Σ+ state) for C3H+, which lies 25 kcal/mol below the 3B2 state at the MP4 level, and a bent structure (1A′ state) for Si3H+, which lies just 2 kcal/mol below the 3B2 state. The proton affinities of C3, SiC2, Si2C, and Si3 are estimated at different levels of theory. Both protonation at carbon and silicon atoms are considered for SiC2 and Si2C. It is found that C3 comparatively has a low proton affinity. On the other hand, Si3 has a relatively high proton affinity compared with the protonation at silicon atom for both SiC2 and Si2C. These results are discussed on the basis of electronic structure arguments.

    Notes: An empirical potential is introduced that is suitable for calculation of the interaction enegies of biomolecules with thousands of atoms. The potential consists of electrostatic, repulsion, and dispersion energy terms. The approach used for parametrization of the potential is entirely different from that used with other existing potentials. Namely, all the terms were parametrized independently to retain their physical significance. The sum of the electrostatic and repulsion terms mimic the SCF interaction energy calculated using Huzinaga's minimal basis set MINI-1. The dispersion energy is very important and is usually predominant for the interactions of large (polar) molecules in the gas phase as well as in the liquid phase.

    Notes: In this paper a general method for the evaluation of the matrix elements of spin-dependent operators is proposed to improve the treatment primitively suggesteed by Cooper and Musher. This approach is largely based on the recent results which the present authors have achieved in the representation theory for the inner- and outer-product reduction of the symmetric group. It is shown that the so-called outer-product coupling coefficients (OPCC) can be used to generalize the method for constructing the irreducible tensor operators of group Sn. Together with the use of inner-product coupling coefficients (IPCC), an expression for the matrix elements of spin-dependent operators is presented as the product of a Racah coefficient for Sn and a reduced matrix element which can be expressed in terms of IPCC, OPCC, and the related integrals. The treatment for one- and two-electron spin-dependent operators is discussed in detail.

    Notes: The isotropic (aiso) and dipolar (Adip) hyperfine coupling constants of 19F2- were obtained from MRD-CI wave functions using a variety of basis sets. In series I, increasing numbers of d functions were added to a 5s4p contracted Huzinaga/Dunning basis. In series II, the 5s3p basis set was uncontracted in several steps until 9s5p was reached, to which were added from one to three d-polarization functions. CI parameters (selection thresholds and the number of reference configurations) were also varied. A study of the R dependence of aiso and Adip was performed. The best values obtained at Re are 260 G for aiso and 308 G for Adip, compared with experimental values of about 280 G for aiso and 320 G for Adip.

    Notes: Quantum mechanical calculations have been used to study the reaction mechanism of human carbonic anhydrase-catalyzed hydration of CO2. This reaction is responsible for fast metabolism of CO2 in the human body. For each of the reaction steps, possible catalytic effects of active site residues are examined. The pertinent results are as follows. (1) For CO2 binding, the experimentally observed 2.5 cm-1 frequency shift of the asymmetic stretching frequency between measurements taken in the aqueous solution and in the enzyme is reproduced in our theoretical calculations. Our results suggest that CO2 binds to the zinc ion within the hydrophobic pocket. (2) No energy barrier is found for the nucleophilic attack from Zn2+-bound OH- to C of CO2 to form Zn2+-bound HCO3-. (3) For the internal proton transfer within zinc-bound HCO3-, the barrier of 35.6 kcal/mol for the direct internal proton transfer is reduced to 3.5 and 1.4 kcal/mol, respectively, when one or two water molecules are included for proton relay. (4) Displacement of Zn2+-bound HCO3- by H2O is facilitated by the presence of the negatively charged Glu 106-Thr 199 chain and by the association and the subsequent ionization of a fifth water ligand. (5) For the intramolecular proton transfer between Zn2+-bound H2O and His 64, the Zn2+ ion lowers the pKa of Zn2+-bound water and repels the proton. His 64, or a similar proton receptor with a larger proton affinity than H2O, functions as proton receiver; and the active site water molecules visualized by x-ray crystallography are important for the proton relay function. In summary, it is demonstrated that in order to achieve effective catalysis, a sequence of precisely coordinated catalytic events among all participating catalytic elements in the enzyme's active site is essential.

    Notes: We describe an efficient new algorithm which extends the range of feasible shell model calculations. This algorithm is applicable to single shell and multiple shell configurations, where two or more quantum numbers (e.g., L and S) are required to label the states within each shell. The algorithm proceeds by factoring the shell model Hilbert space into a product of subspaces, one for each angular momentum. N-particle wave functions are built up recursively from N - 1 particle wave functions. Three kinds of N - 1- to N-particle coefficients are required to carry out the construction of N-particle electron (or fermion) states from N - 1 particle states. These are (1) coefficients of fractional parentage (CFPs) within a single shell, (2) outerproduct isoscalar factors (OISFs) within a single angular momentum subspace, and (3) innerproduct isoscalar factors (IISFs) which describe how multishell states within the complementary angular momentum subspaces are combined to form totally antisymmetric wave functions. All three types of N - 1- to N-particle coefficients are generated recursively using a single powerful and efficient matrix diagonalization algorithm. Matrix elements of single particle creation and annihilation operators are expressed in terms of single particle CFPs, OISFs, and IISFs. We also describe an efficient algorithm for computing matrix elements of products of creation and anihilation operators by inserting and summing over complete sets of intermediate states. This is the Feynman-like sum over path overlaps procedure. Timing benchmarks are presented comparing the new Drexel University shell model (DUSM) code with a state of the art shell model code.

    Notes: A graphical approach to the configuration interaction in the basis of pure Slater determinants is presented. The formulation based on the spin-separated two-slope graph (SSTSG), enabling the selection of determinants with the fixed Ms value, has a direct relation to the well-known concept of the group-function product. The commonly used excitation criterion and the spatial (Abelian) symmetry properties are analyzed in terms of the graph's internal structure. The Slater formulae for the Hamiltonian matrix elements between determinants, in the particle-hole formalism and in the spin-separated form, are related to different classes of loops within graphs. Some aspects of implementation within both the matrix-element-driven (ME) and integral driven (ID, direct) CI algorithms are discussed. The presented formulation, of a general complete active space (CAS) CI type, is a basis of the Graphical Determinantal Configuration Interaction (GDCI) computer program.

    Notes: A complex multidimensional DNA structure is obtained when treating the elements of the Eco RI restriction set of buffalo rat as a cascade of self-similar units. Fifteen of the 16 (about 94%) Eco RI repeat families, ranging in length from 2300 to 83 nucleotides and in frequency from 500 to 〉 106 units, are sorted into a three-tiered well-ordered fractal/Fibonacci lattice. On the first level, 11 fractal dimensions are defined as unique collinear collections of repeat DNA families in a “graph-invariant” plot of log(fragment length):log(frequency). On the second level, the individual dimensional arrays are clustered as groups, each sharing, at last, one common vertex. On the third level, the entire display is scaled along a stepwise log to the base 6 expansion. This study represents the first successful attempt to unify an “entire” set of repeat DNAs into a single motif, in effect confirming the contention that select repeat DNAs provide a framework for the discrete packaging and unpackaging of genomic information.

    Notes: Vibrational and vibration-rotational energy levels of ozone and its isotopic substitutes have been calculated variationally by the ladder operator method. Thirty vibrational band origins and rotational energies of vibrational ground states for these molecules have been given. The good agreement between the calculated results and the observed values shows that the calculation method is a promising one for variational studies of vibrational and vibration-rotational properties of nonlinear polyatomic molecules.

    Notes: Earlier work on the Pauli potential VPauli, which allows the square root of the electron density to be calculated directly from a Schrödinger equation, is generalized from two-level (radial) systems such as the Be atom to the n-level case in one dimension. This is achieved using hyperspherical functions, in terms of which the first- and second-order density matrices are expressed. It is confirmed that VPauli can be constructed from the ground-state density ρ (x) and its first two derivatives, plus the functional derivative of the single-particle kinetic energy with respect to ρ. Finally, contact is made with the Harriman construction, but now using approximate one-body orbitals.

    Notes: Results of a Monte Carlo simulation of the hydration of caffeine (1,3,7-trimethyl-2,6-dioxipurine) and three different configurations of its stacked dimer are presented. Simulations were performed in a cluster approximation; the system contained 200 water molecules. The nature of the stabilization of caffeine stacking associates in water was considered. A hydrophobic behavior of methyl groups during association of caffeine molecules in water is shown. Results of the simulation of caffeine hydration are compared with experimental data from the study of the system of caffeine-water.

    Notes: A close scrutiny of the relationship between geometric constraints and motion in a system of water molecules allows the prediction of a role of solvent dynamics in the solvent-mediated interaction between two solutes and between different parts of one solute. The predicted mechanism is cooperative, and its operation is widely supported by experiments (not only by our group) in which solvent dynamics were modulated by isotopic or cosolvent perturbations. More recent experimental work by our group and simulation work of MCY water by Fornili et al, strengthens this evidence and visualizes how an immobilized water molecule can “seed” or “pin” a high-connectivity patch of H bonds. Involvement of the mechanism in pattern-specific, solvent-mediated driving forces of significant size (additional to those due to electrostatic recognition determinants) and in functional proton-transfer is inferred from available evidence.

    Notes: Ab initio, quantum chemical methods have been used to develop an interaction model for the binding of benzoic and salicylic acids and phenols to cyclooxygenase, leading to their antiinflammatory action. The model is based on a regression analysis of the energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital with the potency of the active substances to inhibit prostaglandin production in mouse macrophages and on an analysis of the frontier orbital charge distributions and electrostatic potentials of active and inactive compounds. The model suggests that binding is controlled by an electrostatic orientational factor and a charge transfer or polarization contribution. The observed relative potencies of the phenols and acids can be rationalized with the help of the proposed interaction model.

    Notes: Wave function tails are analyzed quantitatively by investigating the dependence of exterior electron density (EED) on basis sets; the EED is defined as the integrated electron density outside the repulsive molecular surface. Ab initio MO calculations with large scale basis sets were performed to establish the benchmark order of EED values for valence orbitals of some simple molecules. It is found that very popular basis sets, such as 4-31G, which are determined by energy optimization, are inferior in describing the wave function tails to some similar size basis sets, such as MIDI-4, which are obtained by least-squares fit to near Hartree-Fock atomic functions. Further the EED values for atomic 2s functions are shown to be unfavorably smaller than those for atomic 2p functions when the same value is used for the exponent α in the GTO basis sets. This indicates that the frequently used constraint αs = αp is not appropriate for describing wave function tails with medium-size basis sets. Deficiencies in the energy-optimized basis sets are found to become more serious for molecules including heavier atoms.

    Notes: Double-well potential energy surfaces for hydrogen bonding in crystalline vitamin B6 have been associated with molecular environmental effects. New calculations, involving improved representations of a fragmentation model, include the introduction of a second pyridoxinium chloride system within the model in a “dimer-like” configuration. The new results confirm the double-well potential and the prediction of the experimentally observed position for the proton as being due essentially to environmental effects.Atomic difference maps are presented for the charge density distributions, which reflect the nature of the bonding as it depends on the proton position. Mulliken populations are examined particularly in relation to the “intermolecular” transfer of electrons.

    Notes: One of possible approaches to the CI method is based on Boys bonded functions which can be generated in a systematic way forming an independent set of high internal symmetry. The main disadvantage of bonded functions is their nonorthogonality. In this paper a scheme is proposed for passing to orthogonalized set of bonded functions together with the appropriate algorithm for the transformation of the energy matrix H. The orthogonalization matrices are shown to reflect high symmetry of the canonical set of bonded functions, and in what follows they can be defined by short vectors. Moreover, the orthogonalization transformation can be handled in a blockwise manner.

    Notes: An interaction range analysis of electronic structures has been developed with density matrix approximation techniques. A successive error analysis of electronic interaction of differing ranges reveals clear pattrns. Aromatic hydrocarbons and heterocycles are used as examples. The developed technique is proposed to be used as an illustrative tool for the description of delocalization and as a guide for studies where delocalized systems are modeled by small subsystems.

    Notes: The explicit formulas for the evaluation of the Hamiltonian matrix elements are presented. The calculation of the integral coefficients is independent of both the nature of the orbitals and th spin coupling schemes. It is fully automatic and only dependent on the number of doubly and singly occupied orbitals. Further-more, the symmetric group representation matrices are not needed, and the N! problem can be avoided.

    Notes: Formulas for the energies and widths of shape resonances, i.e., quasi-stationary levels for a quantal particle moving in a spherically symmetric potential, valid also close to the top of the potential barrier, have been published by Drukarev, Fröman, and Fröman. On the basis of these formulas, in the present paper the potential is explicitly expressed in terms of experimental data on the energies and widths of the quasi-stationary states. The treatment is related to previous treatments by Wheeler and by Cole and Good, Jr., which are in turn related to the Rydberg-Klein-Rees method.

    Notes: New solutions for reaction-diffusion equations, called singletons and polytons, are found to be of fundamental significance. They exhibit properties of self-formation. In the presence of nonlinear saturation effects their evolutions in time have pronounced maxima. Information about details of an initial spatial distribution is found to be carried along in time with the dynamic process of forming a growing singleton and to be restored at a later stage.

    Notes: Compton spectra excited by 241Am radiation have been measured on thin single-crystal slices with the scattering vector oriented parallel and perpendicular to the pair of hydrogen bonds in the (HCO3)22- dimers as well as to the plane of the dimers. the reciprocal form factors extracted from the spectra are strongly anisotropic with two extra zero passages in the direction of the hydrogen bonds. the results are in very satisfactory agreement with theoretical data that are calculated for the dimer with and without additional point charges simulating the neighboring ions in the crystal. The calculations have been done with Gaussian basis sets of double-zeta quality within the Hartree-Fock approximation. The theoretical reciprocal form factors of the monomer HCO3- and the dimer show only small differences in the directions perpendicular to the hydrogen bonds, whereas the differences in the hydrogen bond direction are remarkable and account for the experimentally observed features. In comparison to this effect the influence of the neighboring ions by their charges is much smaller, which is even true when taking into account the influence of the neighboring dimers in the crystalline stack in more detail by symmetrical orthogonalization of the combined wave functions. The same orthogonalization procedure applied to a pair of monomers in the spatial arrangement of the dimer yields a reciprocal form factor that in the experimentally reliable range above 1.8 Å accounts for most of the dimerization effect in the direction of the hydrogen bonds. Thus also for this prototype of paired hydrogen bonds (cf., carboxylic acids, DNA, and RNA), it confirms our earlier experimental finding on liquid water now unambiguously, namely that, in the same way as the cohesion in ionic crystals, hydrogen bond formation in bulk matter is distinctly dominated by electrostatic attraction, which is compensated by repulsion owing to the Pauli principle.

    Notes: The effect of molecular interaction on the O—H stretching force constant of methanol (MeOH) is reported for its associated species. The various electron donors (D) and acceptors (A) considered include organic molecules such as methanol, dimethylether, acetone, acetonitrile, dimethyl formamide, pyridine, and ions such as F-, Cl-, Li+, and H+. The variation in the O—H stretching force constant of MeO—H…D species on interaction with the electron acceptor such as in the species is explained on the basis of the cooperativity effect. (CE). The effect is discussed in terms of the relationship CE = (ΔF/F) × 100, where ΔF is the reduction is force constant of the hydrogen-bonded O—H stretching mode of the associated methanol species MeOH…D when the lone pair electrons on oxygen of the methanol molecule are involved in hydrogen bonding with A, and F is the hydrogen-bonded O—H stretching force constant of the species when the lone pair electrons are free. The cooperativity effect (CE) is found to increase with increasing electron acceptor and electron donor capacities of A and D. The calculated force constants are compared with the experimental results.

    Notes: It is shown that doubly excited states play an important role in calculations of the optical activity of molecules with well-conjugated electron systems, such as the DNA bases. In some significant cases it is necessary to include a large number of excited states in the configuration interaction (CI) to obtain a reliable, converging result. A new version of the CNDO/OPTIC method, which includes doubly excited states in the CI, is proposed. As an application, the electric transition moments in different pyrimidines are considered. The calculated results agree with experimental data and results obtained from ab initio calculations and INDO calculations using doubly excited states in the CI.

    Notes: The derivative of the electron-electron potential energy Uee with respect to internuclear separation R is studied for light homonuclear diatomic molecules at equilibrium. It is readily related to nuclear-nuclear potential energy Unn, the force constant K, and the electron-nuclear potential energy Uen. An approximate expression, based on the simplest form of density functional theory, is then used to eliminate dUen/dR|Re. The result thus obtained for dUee/dR|Re transcends an earlier proposal of Kryachko by including a term 2/3ReK, with K the force constant. Numerical tests at SCF-RHF level are presented for nine homonuclear diatomic molecules.

    Notes: The spectroscopically parametrized CNDO/S3 model is used to provide a quantitative description of the valence electron photoemission and ultraviolet absorption spectra of a series of substituted phenols and anisoles. The CNDO/S3 density of valence states was used to determine the molecular conformation of these molecules via analysis of gas-phase photoemission spectra. These conformations, in turn, were used to quantitatively determine the ultraviolet absorption spectra.

    Notes: A spin-free symmetry-adapted valence bond (VB) state, named bonded tableau (BT), is deduced from the classical bonded function and labeled by an at most two-column Weyl tableau. The complete set, which is composed of the BT basis or canonical bonded tableau (CBT), can be constructed from an overcomplete set of BT states. CI CBT and VB CBT are two kinds of complete sets that are constructed in this paper. They can be used, respectively, in the CI and VB theory. It is shown that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the labeling scheme for CI CBT and the Gelfand-Tsetlin (GT) basis. This relationship enables an efficient generation and compact representation of the BT basis if one desires to use the known global representation scheme for the GT basis. Effective algorithms for the matrix element evaluation of unitary group generators and products of generators between BT states are presented. In the formulation, the action of a generator on a BT state yields another BT state times a coefficient, so that the matrix elements of an arbitrary multiple product of generators are reduced to a calculation of the overlaps between BT states. The evaluation of the overlaps leads to a simple factorization into cycle contributions, whose values are given explicitly and only depend on the length parameters of the cycles. It is hoped that the presented formalism can facilitate the procedures for handling of the many-electron correlation problem.

    Notes: We show that even when the nuclear motion is quantum mechanically described, the energy of a molecular state can be exactly expressed as a sum of terms, each one related to a nuclei of the molecule. This is a generalization of a similar result obtained by Politzer and Parr for the case in which the nuclei are in fixed positions. In fact, the nuclear motion is exactly taken into account through a modified screening function derivative evaluated on each nucleus of the molecule. We discuss how the screening function derivatives corresponding to the fixed nuclei case relate to those which take into account the nuclear motion. A simple relation between these two arises in the so-called crude Börn-Oppenheimer approximation.

    Notes: A combinatorial derivation of the product of the class of three cycles, [(1)N-3(3)]N with an arbitrary class operator of the symmetric group SN is presented. The form of this result suggests a conjecture concerning the expression of the general class operator product in terms of a relatively small number of reduced class coefficients. The conjecture is applied to the determination of the products of [(1)N-4(4)]N, [(1)N-4(2)2]N, and [(1)N-5(5)]N with arbitrary class operators. General expressions for the reduced class coefficients of the simplest type are obtained.

    Notes: The local energy is examined as an indicator of the accuracy of approximate wave functions for the ground state of helium. It is observed that at a given point (1) an inaccurate local energy may or may not correspond to an inaccurate value of the wave function or probability density, but (2) a value of the local energy within 0.1 a.u. of the ground-state energy corresponds to a value of the approximate wave function or probability density within about 10% of that for the ground-state wave function.

    Notes: A configuration-averaged Fock (CAHF) operator is developed within the restricted open-shell formulation (ROHF) for the case of any number of open-shell orbitals containing any number of electrons. The resulting orbitals and energies should be useful for those cases where there is a great degeneracy of states, either preventing self-consistent field convergence, or negating the value of a pure state description itself. This procedure is compared with the hyper-Hartree-Fock method of Slater and the grand canonical Hartree-Fock ansatz of Abdulnar, Linderberg, Öhrn, and Thulstrup.

    Notes: An explicit relation is derived between the one-body potential energy and the electron density for the ground state of the Be atom in a nonrelativistic framework. This same relation applies to any four-electron atomic ion (or to Be itself) in a state where the electrons occupy two doubly filled orbitals. The relation is interpreted as an exact Hartree-like model of the Hohenberg-Kohn theorem within the general context of N electrons and a potential that is not necessarily spherically symmetrical.

    Notes: A short review of the recent development of the stochastic approach to chemical reactions in condensed media is made. The relations of this approach to a general formulation of chemical kinetics are discussed on the basis of a many-frequency oscillator model. It is shown that the classical transition-state theory is not a particular case of the stochastic theory neither in the case of small viscosity nor in the case of large viscosity. The recent quantum generalizations of the stochastic theory are identical to earlier results of a quantum transition-state theory that correspond to the case of large viscosity. Such generalizations based on previous results of a collision theory are made for the case of small viscosity. It is shown that these quantum generalizations of the stochastic theory are possible only in the temperature range of moderate tunneling defined in terms of a characteristic temperature.

    Notes: Correlation forms for electrons of the same spin small molecules are analyzed by taking the LiH molecule as an example. The analyses are carried out on the basis of the reduced density matrix theory and for both the ground state and the first excited state. It turns out that although there is a certain similarity, the correlated motions of parallel-spin electrons in this four-electron molecule are more complicated than those found for the two-electron molecule. The correlation forms are not always constant. They vary essentially from one state to another, but are insensitive to fairly large changes of the internuclear distance for a given state.

    Notes: We have separated the electrostatic potential of a molecule into two parts: an atomic-like part, which is expanded in spherical harmonics around each nucleus, plus an overlap part, expanded in ellipsoidal harmonics around each pair of nuclei. Neglect of the penetration effect in these expansions yields a superposition of point and line multipoles. We have studied the penetration effect for the case of the hydrogen molecules and suggest an approximation for the elliptical penetration effect as a screening factor in the electrostatic potential.

    Notes: A recently developed analytical technique, modulus profiling, conveniently allows the mechanical properties of elastomers to be mapped with spatial resclutions approaching 0.05 mm. Thus, spatial heterogeneities in modulus caused by processing and aging phenomena can be easily monitored. This paper describes some typical results from polymer aging studies, which Indicate the insights available from this technique. These include application of modulus profiling to understanding (1) mechanical property deterioration of Viton in an elevated temperature, gamma-radiation environment, (2) recent continuous stress-relaxation results, and (3) the role of ozone for non mechanically-stressed materials in high energy radiation environments.

    Notes: The present paper describes the evaluation of nonlinear thermally induced residual stresses in the cooling of polymer melt during injection molding of plastic components. The computational methodology adopted is based on the transfinite element approach, which is a hybrid scheme as it combines transform methods and classical Galerkin schemes with finite element formulations to preserve the modeling versatility. The applicability of the proposed formulations for understanding the physics and the nature of the nonlinear thermally induced stresses in the solidifying process of a sample amorphous polystyrene specimen demonstrates the basic capabilities and potential of the methodology. Results obtained agree qualitatively well with earlier research studies and experimental findings relevant to thermally induced residual stresses in the injection molding of plastic components.

    Notes: A method to obtain microscopic and macroscopic coatings with improved resistance to debonding is described. The procedure, based on polymer-metal complexes, involved the adsorption on inorganic substrates of a poly(vinyl alcohol)-copper II chelate that is also able to catalyze the polymerization of monomers or prepolymers with grafting. The molecular structure of the complex, its adsorption on inorganic surfaces, and the mechanism of the polymerization induced by the supported catalyst are summarized. Much emphasis is placed on application of this technology to the realization of encapsulated filler and pigment and of coatings with improved adherence and solvent resistance. In the field of composite materials, it is demonstrated from several examples that the encapsulation of the filler can be a way to block chemical interactions between filler and matrix, to promote filler dispersion, and to improve mechanical properties.

    Notes: As a result of increased interest from industry in using dielectric cure monitoring, a need has arisen for simplifying frequency, cure, and temperature dependent data so that control decisions can be readily made. Techniques utilizing data covering several decades of frequency now exist for separating ionic conduction levels from dipole and electrode polarization responses. Ionic conduction levels are particularly useful since they can be correlated to both viscosity and extent of cure. In addition to being a function of extent of cure, dielectric properties are also influenced by temperature. This dependence often makes the dielectric response more difficult to interpret. This paper investigates two methods for overcoming the temperature dependence of the dielectric response during nonisothermal cure. The first method utilizes recent WLF modeling techniques and extends them with the end result of extracting Tg in real time during cure. The second technique involves measuring the temperature dependence of uncured and cured material. Utilizing the correlation between log ionic conductivity and extent of cure, which has been noted by previous researchers, the normalized conductivity can be converted to a cure index. Several examples including epoxy, polyurethane, and a UV cured photoresist are presented, showing data before normalization and after both Tg and cure index determination.

    Notes: Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and bisphenol-a-polycarbonate (PC) are known to form a miscible blend whereas ternary blends of PET, PC, and polypropylene (PP) form two phases. This is based on the considerations of various chemical events which may occur in these systems. The role of ester-carbonate interchange reactions during melt mixing and fabricating is found to be unimportant. Differential scanning calorimetric analysis of the ternary blends shows that there appears to occur an exothermic transition in the heating mode of the instrument. This exothermic event was found to be suppressed considerably by incorporating suitable additives into the system. Degradation reactions studied by thermogravimetric analysis and a dilute solution viscometric technique reveal that there exists some kind of interaction among the components even with the immiscible PP component.

    Notes: Interpenetrating polymer networks of polyurethane and unsaturated polyester were prepared by reaction injection molding (RIM) and transfer molding. The structures of the molded samples were analyzed by electron microscopy and dynamic mechanical analysis. It was found that polymer morphology and dynamic mechanical properties depend strongly on the molding temperature, reaction rate and reaction sequence. Simplified structure models based on Takayanagi's model and sample morphology can predict the storage modulus reasonably well but not the tanδ.

    Notes: The plasticating or melting behavior of polymer pellets sliding on a hot metal surface was investigated. An analytical model was developed for predicting the melting rate and the shear stress of an incompletely compacted solid bed of pellets in terms of the rheological and thermodynamic properties of the polymer, the pellet size, the degree of compaction, and the operating conditions. This investigation extends the results of the previous investigators obtained for a fully compacted solid bed of polymers to an incompletely compacted solid bed of polymers, closely representing the initial stage of the plasticating mechanism inside a screw extruder. Experimental verification of the analytical model developed here was made by testing six different commercial polymers.

    Notes: Vitrification occurs during the reaction injection molding (RIM) of epoxy resin, and the curing reaction rate is reduced as the Tg of the reacting mixture exceeds or approaches the local reaction temperature inside the mold cavity. The effect will be manifested in the distribution of the glass transition temperature across the thickness direction of the molded product. The reaction kinetic equation which includes the vitrification term in the form of the WLF equation is used in the computer simulation of the epoxy RIM process and the effect of the vitrification is shown by comparing with models with no vitrification considerations.

    Notes: The performance of screws of advanced design in injection molding has been investigated with respect to four different objectives: (1) improvement of distributive mixing; (2) improvement of dispersive mixing; (3) increase of plasticating capacity; and (4) reduction of inhomogeneity of melt temperature.The screws used are three zone screws with different compression ratios, screws with pineapple or Maddock/Egan mixing elements, with one or two channel barrier sections, with static mixers mounted in the valve or in the nozzle, or with combinations of these different elements. The best mixing quality is obtained with multi-channel Maddock sections. The highest plasticating capacity and, consequently, the shortest cycle times are achieved with the barrier screws. Temperature measurements show that these screws improve melt homogeneity considerably with a relatively small loss of plasticating time. In all cases, increasing the back pressure gives inferior results compared with improvement of the screw design.

    Notes: The impact fracture energy (Gc) for a polypropylene homopolymer and a copolymer with and without calcium carbonate fillers was measured over a range of temperatures between -40°C and 40°C using fracture mechanics principles. The fillers studied were Omyacarb (∼2.7 μm) and Winnofil (∼75 nm) and 10% by weight was added to the matrix material. These fillers did not have any appreciable effect on Gc of the copolymer-based composites. However, the Omyacarb fillers improved Gc of the homopolymer at low temperatures (≤20°C) due to enhanced microplastic flow as observed on the fracture surfaces. The fillers increased the stiffness of both the homopolymer and copolymer. It would appear that up to 10% of cheap calcium carbonate fillers could be added to the more expensive polypropylene to reduce the production cost without any significant loss of impact fracture energy.

    Notes: A novel sliding plate rheometer has been developed that is suitable for use with molten plastics, concentrated polymer solutions, raw elastomers, and other viscoelastic or thixotropic materials. It can generate steady shear rates from 0.05 to 500 s-1 and can also be used to measure linear viscoelastic properties. In addition, it can be used to measure a broad spectrum of nonlinear viscoelastic properties such as the nonlinear relaxation modulus and the shear stress growth coefficient. In order to measure these nonlinear properties it is necessary to generate large, uniform, transient deformations Involving high strain rates. Rotational and capillary melt rheometers are not capable of generating this type of deformation, and until now it was not convenient to use sliding plate rheometers for this type of application. However, the recent development of a reliable and robust shear stress transducer makes it very convenient to use the sliding plate geometry to carry out all of these tests. The new rheometer is described, and examples of the types of data it can generate are shown.

    Notes: During the sheet molding compound (SMC) compression molding process, a premeasured polymer charge is placed between the heated halves of a mold which are then brought together to squeeze the polymer and fill the mold, after which pressure is maintained while the part cures. The cure stage constitutes the larger part of the molding cycle and thus affords the largest potential for cycle time reduction. In general, cure times in SMC processing are set longer than necessary, since the inherent material and process variation make it difficult to predict cure times with more than 10 to 20% accuracy. Accurate methods to detect the end of cure would be very beneficial and would permit opening the mold as soon as the material has cured, avoiding unnecessary waste of time. In this paper, several techniques that show promise for monitoring the state of cure are reviewed and experimental results given. Their relative advantages and accuracies are compared. In particular, the use of linear variable displacement transducers, pressure transducers, and thermocouples is discussed. We also show how the measurements compare to theoretical predictions of the state of cure.

    Notes: The parallel-plate test fixture on a Rheometrics viscometer was electrically isolated so that the rheological and dielectric properties of a thermoset polymer system could be simultaneously measured. This enabled the relationship between the dielectric properties and the rheological properties to be directly examined. A close relationship was established between the dielectric properties (dipole relaxation time and specific conductivity) and the pre-gelation bulk viscosity. This relationship suggested that models similar in form to those used to describe the change in viscosity might be used to describe the changing dielectric properties. The limitations and advantages of two such models, which attempt to describe the time-temperature behavior of the dielectric properties, were then tested for use with a typical aerospace epoxy resin system.

    Notes: We investigated the miscibility of polybutadienes with butadiene-styrene copolymers of varying styrene content. The methods of optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and small angle light scattering (SALS) were used. All polymers/copolymers used in this study have equivalent butadiene microstructures. Copolymers with high styrene levels are immiscible with polybutadiene. The tendency to miscibility increases with decreasing styrene content. An upper critical solution temperature is observed with the 23 percent styrene copolymer.

    Notes: Poly(ether-ether-ketone) (PEEK) is a newly developed engineering thermoplastic with potentially vast application in advanced composites due to its exceptional performance. It is thus desired to understand the relationship between physical processing, microstructure and fracture in this semicrystalline polymer. Both oriented and unoriented PEEK were mechanically characterized using static test of three-point bend specimens. The molecular chain orientation was imposed using a rolltrusion technique. The effects of thickness, strain rate, Initial crack length ratio, and orientation on fracture toughness (Kc) are investigated. The crystallinity is also examined by density measurement. The degree of orientation is determined qualitatively by wide-angle X-ray scattering diffraction patterns and quantitatively by further measurement using an image analysis system. Fractographic analysis, using scanning electron microscopy, provides precise information about the mode of fracture, Results indicate that both the modulus and the fracture toughness are remarkedly increased in the direction of drawing (T-type) as opposed to the transverse direction (L-type).

    Notes: Herein is more detail to microscopic aspects of electron transport through a conductor-filled polymer than has yet been considered in the literature (irrespective of quantum mechanical tunneling and thermal expansion). Some of these details only clarify earlier theories, but others lead to new discoveries such as the cubic conduction path coordination number z = 18 (contrasted with the classical geometric coordination number of z = 6). New also are simplified derivations of the high and low fill asymptotes of the master equation for conductance as a function of fill fraction in the effective medium theory of conductor-filled polymers.

    Notes: Several recent calculations of the stress field around crazes in glassy polymers have been based on experimentally obtained craze opening displacements. Although various techniques for performing these calculations have been presented (i.e., Fourier transform, boundary integral, and finite element methods), all are based on the solution of the same ill-conditioned boundary value problem. Specific boundary conditions required to calculate the stresses around a craze lead to a large change in the stress field with small changes in the craze profile which are within the reported experimental tolerance.

    Notes: The flow of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids which obeys a power law relationship between shear stress and shear rate has been modeled in the melt conveying section of a self-wiping co-rotating twin-screw extruder using a finite element analysis of an unwound channel section. Predictions of throughput against pressure gradient are compared with experimentally obtained results for maize grits which is represented as a power law material. Rheological data applicable to extrusion simulation were obtained from capillary rheometry. Comparisons are reasonable with predicted characteristic showing similar behavior.

    Notes: The emulsifying activity of a poly(hydrogenated butadiene-b-methyl methacrylate) (HPB-b-PMMA) copolymer is investigated in incompatible blends of a low density polyethylene and poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) resins (mainly ABS) prepared in the melt state on a two-roll mill. Optical and scanning electron microscopy observations clearly demonstrate that a moderate amount of copolymer (5 wt %) very significantly decreases the particle size and enhances interfacial adhesion. The block copolymer is also responsible for a strong improvement in both the ductility and Charpy impact resistance of PE/ABS blends.

    Notes: To improve the powder processing behavior of ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene, a conductive iron filler was distributed within the polymer in a segregated network. The filler level was kept at a minimum of 10 volume percent, which was sufficient to coat completely all the polymer particle surfaces. This filler level was low enough to avoid modifying the resin properties to a significant extent. Compaction of these filled samples showed a slower densification, under pressure, similar level of final densification at 80% densification parameter, and a doubling of plateau pressure value to 200 MPa in comparison with the unfilled polymer. The filler was found to reduce drastically the postcompaction relaxation time from 24 h to 6 h. The magnitude of the axial (compaction direction) relaxation was unchanged, but the radial relaxation was one quarter of that for the unfilled polymer. Sintering behavior showed improved densification because of lower dimensional changes during sintering resulting in 80% relative sintered density, higher than the 75% percent value for the unfilled polymer, but yielded a 20% lower sintered strength, An alternative process of rapid sintering by induction heating was explored, its feasibility demonstrated, and a recommendation is made to make powder processing of this polymer commercially attractive.

    Notes: The application of X-Ray lithography in mass production of devices is only economically viable if resist materials of highest sensitivity can be provided. Chemical amplification is the key concept to achieve such performance. It is outlined for a highly sensitive three component positive tone X-Ray resist, consisting of a Novolak binder matrix, a starter compound, which - on X-Ray exposure - yields an acid, which catalytically decomposes a dissolution inhibitor. Resist performance is discussed in terms of reaction kinetics and their implications on resist response, simulation, and handling procedures.

    Notes: Many styrylpyridinium compounds (SPC), which are very stable in the dark, were prepared and evaluated as photobleachable dyes for contrast enhanced lithography (CEL). The photobleaching characteristics of water-soluble contrast enhancing materials composed of SPC and water-soluble polymer depend on the structure of the SPC and the kind of polymers used. The technique using SPC-based CEL proved to be very effective for the resist pattern profiles.

    Notes: Dissolution inhibition mechanisms of naphthoquinone diazides in novolak based positive photoresists were investigated from three different aspects: • Dipolar interaction.• Interfacial chemical reactions.• Chemical structures of naphthoquinone diazides.The results suggest that there exists a hydrogen bonding interaction between the compounds with the matrix novolak resin and that naphthoquinone diazides would crosslink the resin in contact with an alkaline developer, both of which contribute to dissolution inhibition mechanisms. However, there seems to exist another dissolution inhibition mechanism; namely, 1,2-naphthoquinone diazide does not inhibit dissolution of the matrix novolak resin at all while a clear dissolution inhibition effect Is observed for its derivatives containing sulfonyl groups. In the present paper, three dissolution inhibition mechanisms of naphthoquinone diazides will be proposed.

    Notes: A commercial liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) sample was characterized both in shear and in nonisothermal elongational flow over a wide range of temperatures (240-350°C). The LCP sample employed was a copolyesteramide of 2,6 hydroxynaphthoic acid, terephthalic acid, and aminophenol manufactured by Celanese and commercially known as Vectra B950. The viscosity decreases dramatically at temperatures above the crystal-nematic transition of the polymer. At lower temperatures, the extrusion of the sample is mainly due to plastic flow. Die-swell values are very small and contraction of the extrudate is also revealed, but the sample shows high elasticity. The polymer is not spinnable at very low temperatures, and the melt strength rapidly decreases with increasing temperature.

    Notes: Calculation of gas permeation in food packaging structures can be done using a steady-state analysis employing the permeability coefficient. While this approach is adequate for some applications, for many others a time-dependent transport analysis must be considered to make quantitative predictions of shelf life. The limitation of the simple permeability analysis for multilayer structures is illustrated for Saran-coated polycarbonate and poly(ethylene terephthalate) soda cans. These more detailed calculations on package structures can be done using standard computer library routines to include both the effect of gas sorption and diffusion.

    Notes: Nonisothermal differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements were used to estimate the kinetic parameters for the curing reaction of a commercial unsaturated polyester resin. The reaction rate expression was derived from a mechanistic kinetic model based on the concept of free radical polymerization, accounting also for the diffusion controlled reaction. The total heat of reaction was evaluated in experiments run at very low scan speeds and using high amount of initiator. The kinetic parameters were found to show no dependency on the heating rate nor on the initiator concentration. Dynamic DSC measurements provide reliable kinetic data over a broad range of temperatures that is mostly significant for process simulations.

    Notes: The solid state hydrolysis of a copolyester based on a mixture of 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol and ethylene glycol condensed with terephthalic acid was studied at 100°C and 57 to 96 kPa water vapor partial pressure (55% to 95% relative humidity). The equilibrium water sorption in weight percent (C∞) was found to be \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ C_\infty = 1.45 \times \,10^{ - 5} (P_{H_2 O} )^{1.2} $$\end{document} where PH2O is the water vapor partial pressure in kPa. For specimens 0.32-cm thick, it took about 24 h to reach 0.9C∞. The intrinsic viscosity (IV) was measured and used to calculate the relative change in molecular weight (M̄w) from the relationship IV ∝ (M̄w)0.7. The decrease in molecular weight was linear with time, and the rate of decrease was found to be proportional to C∞; the empirical correlation is \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ k = 0.026 \times C_\infty $$\end{document} where the rate constant, k, is in day-1. A decrease of 50% in M̄w was observed after 22 days at 95% relative humidity.

    Notes: A new positive-working photosensitive system of silicon polymer, containing silylether groups in the main chain and a photo-induced acid precursor was investigated. The silicon polymer is hydrolized by a photogenerated acid and degraded to low molecular weight compounds. Thus the effect of solubility inhibition of the polymer is diminished. The higher photosensitivity of this system as compared with 1,2-quinone diazide compounds is due to the catalytic reaction of the acid on the hydrolysis of the silicon polymer. The chemical structure around silylether groups in the polymer, in particular more hydrophilic and less steric structures, affects the rate of hydrolysis and thus the photosensitivity. Among various types of photo-induced acid precursors examined, e.g., s-triazine and 1,3,4-oxadiazole compounds substituted by trihalomethyl groups were effective.

    Notes: A finite element technique has been developed for coupled reaction and heat transfer analysis in which mass diffusion is negligible. The temperature unknowns are located at nodal points, while the reaction variables (species concentrations, reaction rates) are at the Gauss points in each element. With a mechanistic kinetic model, the SMC (sheet molding compound) cure in 2-D and 3-D geometries was analyzed. The results for plate-and-rib configurations show the progression of cure and heat transfer and the influence of geometry on the progression. The analysis for a flat sheet of SMC in a mold with localized heating using bubblers indicates the thermal interaction between the mold and the curing SMC. Temperature and reaction profiles are given for each case.

    Notes: Studies of strength development at polymer-polymer interfaces are examined and applications to welding of similar and dissimilar polymers are considered. The fracture properties of the weld, namely, fracture stress, σ, fracture energy, GIc, fatigue crack propagation rate da/dN, and microscopic aspects of the deformation process are determined using compact tension, wedge cleavage, and double cantilever beam healing experiments. The mechanical properties are related to the structure of the interface via microscopic deformation mechanisms involving disentanglement and bond rupture. The time dependent structure of the welding interface is determined in terms of the molecular dynamics of the polymer chains, the chemical compatibility, and the fractal nature of diffuse interfaces. Several experimental methods are used to probe the weld structure and compare with theoretical scaling laws, Results are given for symmetric amorphous welds, incompatible and compatible asymmetric amorphous welds, incompatible semicrystalline and polymer-metal welds. The relevance of interface healing studies to thermal, friction, solvent and ultrasonic welds is discussed.

    Notes: The integrity of a pipeline system is determined by its weakest links. Joints may be such places. Heat fusion is the most common joining method for distribution gas piping. There are procedural, thermal, and mechanical aspects of making fusion joints. Procedural aspects, such as heater calibration and cleanliness, can be assured only by rigorous training and certification of the operators. Thermal and mechanical aspects consist of specifying joining conditions such as the heater temperature, heating time, and joining pressure. In the absence of procedural errors, the strength of a fusion joint should depend on the pipe material, pipe dimensions, and the thermal and mechanical joining conditions.The measured parameters that are measures of strength are impact energy and location of failure in the tensile impact test. A parameter, termed the joining parameter, was found to characterize the joining conditions. This parameter is a function of bead volume, melt volume at the end of the heating phase, and pipe wall thickness. Of the mechanical test parameters, the impact energy was found to correlate best with the joining parameter.
