    Notes: A series of new polyamides 3 were synthesized by direct polycondensation of the 1,6-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]diamantane (1) with various dicarboxylic acids. The polyamides had inherent viscosities of 0.45-1.90 dL/g and number-average molecular weights (Mn) of 24,000-110,000. Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) reveals that polymers 3 have two relaxations on the temperature scale between -100 and 400°C. Their α relaxations occurred at high temperatures, ranging from 338 to 389°C. Moreover, these polymers remained quite stable at high temperatures and maintained good mechanical properties (G′ = ca. 108 Pa) up to temperatures close to the main transition markedly exceeding 350°C. Due to the bulky diamantane elements and the flexible ether segments, the polymers 3 were amorphous and soluble in a number of organic solvents such as pyridine, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), and N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc). The polyamides 3 have tensile strengths of 56.7-90.2 MPa, elongation to breakage values of 7.5-27.7%, and initial moduli of 1.8-2.1 GPa. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J. Polym. Sci. A Polym.

    Notes: Polyethylene produced by a vanadium-based polymerization catalyst contains long-chain branching as determined by NMR and rheology, even though the polymer has very low levels of vinyl unsaturation. A new mechanism is proposed for the formation of the long-chain branching, which involves C—H bond activation of the polyethylene backbone through a σ-bond metathesis reaction, followed by ethylene insertion at the new V—C bond. Consistent with the proposed C—H bond activation mechanism, the polymerization catalyst was also found to insert ethylene into the C—H bonds of alkanes such as heptane. A bridged metallocene catalyst was also found to activate C—H bonds of alkanes suggesting this new mechanism may explain the formation of long-chain branching in some metallocene-produced polyethylene. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The effect of fullerene (C60) on the radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) in benzene was studied kinetically and by means of ESR, where dimethyl 2,2′-azobis(isobutyrate) (MAIB) was used as initiator. The polymerization rate (Rp) and the molecular weight of resulting poly(MMA) decreased with increasing C60 concentration ((0-2.11) × 10-4 mol/L). The molecular weight of polymer tended to increase with time at higher C60 concentrations. Rp at 50°C in the presence of C60 (7.0 × 10-5 mol/L) was expressed by Rp = k[MAIB]0.5[MMA]1.25. The overall activation energy of polymerization at 7.0 × 10-5 mol/L of C60 concentration was calculated to be 23.2 kcal/mol. Persistent fullerene radicals were observed by ESR in the polymerization system. The concentration of fullerene radicals was found to increase linearly with time and then be saturated. The rate of fullerene radical formation increased with MAIB concentration. Thermal polymerization of styrene (St) in the presence of resulting poly(MMA) seemed to yield a starlike copolymer carrying poly(MMA) and poly(St) arms. The results (r1 = 0.53, r2 = 0.56) of copolymerization of MMA and St with MAIB at 60°C in the presence of C60 (7.15 × 10-5 mol/L) were similar to those (r1 = 0.46, r2 = 0.52) in the absence of C60. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A series of ethylene terephthalate-ε-caprolactone copolyesters (TCL) with different hard segment contents were synthesized and characterized by GPC, NMR, and DSC. The analysis from high-field 1H-NMR reveals that the transesterification between ET and CL segments during synthesis is unavoidable, so TCL copolyesters are segmented copolyesters with certain random properties, as shown by the specific chemical and sequence structure of TCL copolyester chains and as confirmed by their crystallization behavior. The stress-strain test shows that TCL copolyesters with different hard segment contents may possess rubberlike or toughening plastic mechanical properties. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The synthesis and characterization of novel thermoplastic elastomers consisting of multiple polystyrene-b-polyisobutylene (PSt-b-PIB) arms emanating from cyclosiloxane cores is described. The synthesis involved the sequential living cationic block copolymerization of styrene (St) and isobutylene (IB), followed by quantitative allylic end-functionalization of the living PSt-b-PIB+ to produce PSt-b-PIB—CH2— CH=CH2 prearms, and finally linking by hydrosilation of these prearms with Si—H-containing cyclosiloxanes (e.g., 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexamethylcyclohexasiloxane, DH6). Two types of star-blocks, namely primary and higher-order star-blocks, were prepared: Primary star-blocks containing 3-9 PSt-b-PIB arms were obtained by using various cyclosiloxanes (DH6 to DH12) and a close to exact stoichiometry between the Si—H and allyl groups, [Si—H]/[C=C] ∼ 1, in the essential absence of moisture ([H2O] ∼ 100 ppm). Higher-order star-blocks consisting of 13-24 PSt-b-PIB arms radiating from complex coupled cyclosiloxanes were prepared by the use of Si—H/allyl ratios significantly larger than unity ([Si—H]/[C=C] = 2-3) in the presence of controlled amounts of moisture ([H2O] ∼ 600 ppm). Reaction conditions (temperature, concentration, stoichiometry, solvent nature, catalyst concentration, etc.) for efficient syntheses have been developed. The products were characterized by 200 and 600 MHz 1H-NMR spectroscopy and triple-detector (RI, UV, LLS) GPC. The microstructure of the condensed cores in the higher-order star-blocks was studied by 2D-NMR (HMQC) spectroscopy, and the number of cyclosiloxane rings in the cores (i.e., the content (wt %) of cores in the star-blocks) was determined. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A series of phosphorous-containing aliphatic polyesters were synthesized by high-temperature solution condensation of 2-(6-oxido-6H-dibenz〈c,e〉〈1,2〉oxaphosphorin-6-yl)-1,4-hydroxyethoxy phenylene (III) with various aromatic acid chlorides in o-dichlorobenzene. All polyesters are amorphous and readily soluble in many organic solvents such as DMAc, NMP, DMSO, and o-dichlorobenzene at room temperature or upon heating. These polyesters are thermally quite stable. The glass transition temperatures of these aliphatic polyesters ranged from 126.6 to 162.2°C. The degradation temperatures (Td onset) in nitrogen ranged from 424 to 448°C, and the char yields at 700°C are 20-32%. The activation energies of degradation ranged from 160.9 to 226.0 kJ/mol. The LOIs of these polyesters ranged from 36 to 43. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 3051-3061, 1998

    Notes: Radiation effects on the formation of conjugated double bonds in the thermal degradation of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) were investigated. Thin films of PVC and PVA were either irradiated with γ-rays at ambient temperature (pre-irradiation) and then subjected to thermal treatment, or irradiated at elevated temperatures (in situ irradiation). An extensive enhancement of the thermal degradation was observed for the pre-irradiation of the PVC films, which was more effective than the effect of the in situ irradiation at the same absorption dose. For the PVA degradation, however, the effect of the in situ irradiation was larger than that of the pre-irradiation. The results were explained and related mechanisms were discussed based on radiation-induced chemical reactions and their individual contributions to the thermal degradation behaviors of the two polymers. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The RF plasma induced polymerization of 1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone was examined under variable duty-cycle pulsed-plasma conditions. Large-scale progressive changes in the composition of the resultant polymeric films were observed with sequential changes in the plasma duty cycle employed during polymerization, all other plasma variables held constant. The film compositional changes obtained are in the direction of increased retention of the lactam ring of the monomer in the resultant polymers as the duty cycles employed (i.e., the ratio of plasma on to plasma off times) were decreased. Particularly significant are the relatively linear polymeric structures obtained under the exceptionally low-average power deposition conditions made accessible with the pulsed plasma technique. XPS and FTIR spectroscopic examination of these latter films reveal compositions that are similar to those obtained by conventional (i.e., nonplasma) synthesis of the linear polymer. The film chemistry controllability demonstrated in the present study is achieved while maintaining the many advantages of the plasma polymerization approach for surface modifications. This work provides additional support for use of the pulsed operational mode as an effective means of film chemistry control, in particular extending the plasma polymerization technique to include synthesis of linear polymers, in lieu of the more highly crosslinked structures typically produced in conventional continuous-wave plasma polymerization processes. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Phenylacetylenes (PAs) with bulky substituents (adamantyl, tert-butyl, and n-butyl groups) at the para-position polymerized in good yields with Fe, Rh, Mo, and W catalysts. The formed polymers were soluble, and their number-average molecular weights were in the range of thousands to hundred thousands. Whereas it is known that the poly(PA) obtained with the Fe catalyst is an insoluble cis-cisoidal polymer, the present polymers formed with the same catalyst were totally soluble in many solvents such as benzene and CHCl3. The 1H- and 13C-NMR and DSC data revealed that both of the polymers formed with the Fe and Rh catalysts had virtually all-cis structures, while those with the Mo and W catalysts had cis-rich and trans-rich structures, respectively. Cis-cisoidal and cis-transoidal structures of para-substituted poly(PAs) could not be distinguished because of their good solubility. The bulky substituents raised the temperature of cis-trans isomerization and improved the thermal stability of the polymers. Poly(p-t-BuPA) showed gas permeability higher than that of poly(PA). © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 3157-3163, 1998

    Notes: Tributylstannylated silicic acid (TBSA), which was regarded as a protected polymeric silanol against self-condensation to give silica gel, was newly prepared from the reaction of water glass (WG) and bis(tributyltin) oxide (TBO). The ratios of Si/Sn contained in TBSA were determined by gravimetric analysis to be in the range of 2-3. The gelation of TBSA in usual organic solvents such as hexane, benzene, and dichloromethane was not observed over 3 weeks. In addition, TBSA was shown to be a convenient precursor for the preparations of silica gel modified with organofunctional groups. From the reaction of TBSA with trimethoxysilanes and aromatic alcohols, the silica gels havingorganofunctional groups were obtained with the elimination of a tributyltin group. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Novel poly(silylenemethylenes) have been prepared by the ring-opening polymerization of 1,3-disilacyclobutanes followed by a protodesilylation reaction with triflic acid. The silicon-aryl bond cleavage could be controlled by using different leaving groups, for instance phenyl- and para-anisyl substituents. The reactions of the triflate derivatives with organomagnesium compounds, LiAlH4, amines, or alcohols gave functional substituted poly(silylenemethylenes). Hydrosilylation reactions or reductive coupling with potassium-graphite led to organosilicon network-polymers, which may serve as suitable precursors for silicon carbide and Si/C/N-based materials. The structures of the polymers were identified by NMR spectroscopy (29Si, 13C, 1H). © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 725-735, 1998

    Notes: A novel acetylenic monomer 2-N-ethyl pyridinium trifluoromethane sulfonate (2EPyEtTf) was synthesized and polymerized. Diblock copolymers of 2EPyEtTf with styrene and with butadiene were prepared. Initiation of the polymerization by living anionic polystyryl--Li+ and polybutadienyl--Li+ (Scheme 1) resulted in polystyrene-block-poly(N-ethyl-2-ethynylpyridinium trifluoromethanesulfonate) (PS57PA8), and polybutadiene -block-poly(N-ethyl-2-ethynylpyridinium trifluoromethanesulfonate) (PB30PA8). These amphiphilic block molecules contain rigid, conjugated, and strongly hydrophilic polyacetylene chain fragments attached to hydrophobic polystyrene or flexible polybutadiene chain fragments. The structure of these copolymers was studied by FTIR, UV-visible, and NMR spectroscopy. GPC and viscometry were also used to obtain information on the molecular mass and the molecular mass distribution. Thermal behavior was investigated by means of TGA and DSC. Both block copolymers were shown to form stable monolayers at the air-water interface. The positively charged rigid polyacetylene portion of the copolymer is believed to be partially submerged, while the more flexible hydrophobic chains are forced out of the water. Multilayers of PB30PA8 deposited using the Langmuir-Blodgett technique were found to be less uniform than in the case of the previously reported polystyrene-block-poly(2EPyMeTf) (PS12PA4) copolymer (Balogh et al., Macromolecules, 29, 1996). Polycation-polyanion self-assembly deposition was also investigated, using polystyrenesulfonate (PSS) as polyanion. While PS57PA8/PSS layer-by-layer deposition was not uniform, it was found that PB30PA8/PSS gave homogenous and stable films on hydrophilic glass substrates. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

At the first approximation, the copolymers containing 10 mol % or less of the triarylamino moieties in the polymer chains still preserve the capability to form anisotropic (nematic) solutions at 10 wt % polymer concentration. This is an important requirement for processing the copolymers into fibers and films with good to excellent mechanical properties. Films with good mechanical integrity were cast from the dilute methanesulfonic acid solutions of the copolymers under reduced pressure. They showed electrical conductivity values of the order of 10-11-10-10 S/cm in pristine state, with four to seven orders of magnitude increase upon exposure to mild oxidizing agents such as iodine vapor. On the contrary, the parent polymer, poly(p-phenylene benzobisthiazole) is an insulator with conductivity of less than 10-12 S/cm, and its conductivity does not improve at all with exposure to iodine vapor. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Thermotropic liquid-crystalline polyquinolines with high molecular weights, i.e., poly[2,2′-(α,ω-dioxyphenylene (or -dioxybiphenylene) alkane)-6,6′-(4,4′-dioxybiphenyl)-bis(4-phenylquinoline)]s (P-H-B1Mns or P-H-B2Mns), were synthesized by polycondensation of 4,4′-bis(4-amino-3-benzoylphenoxy)biphenyl and α,ω-bis(4-acetophenoxy (or -acetobiphenoxy))alkanes. For P-H-B1Mn series, the Tm and Ti were in the range of 129-230°C and 156-254°C, respectively, while for the P-H-B2Mn series, those were 182-275°C and 217-309°C, respectively. The introduction of both the dioxybiphenylene group and an alkylene spacer induced thermotropic liquid crystallinity in the polyquinoline, although the introduction of the alkylene spacer alone did not induce it. In addition, polyquinolines substituted with methyl, methoxy, and chloro groups exhibited larger mesophase temperature ranges as well as higher Tms and Tis than the unsubstituted ones. Tensile strengths of these thermotropic polyquinolines were considerably high in the range of 770 to 1170 kgf/cm2. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 749-759, 1998

    Notes: Free radical ring-opening polymerization of 2-methylene-1,3-dioxepane (MDP) in the presence of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy free radical (TEMPO) has been achieved to afford a chain polyester (PMDP) with di-t-butyl peroxide (DTBP) as an initiator at 125°C. The polydispersity of the polymers decreases as the concentration of TEMPO is increased. At high TEMPO concentrations, the polydispersity as low as 1.2 was obtained, which is below the theoretical lower limit for a conventional free radical polymerization. A linear relationship between the number-average molecular weight (Mn) and the monomer conversion was observed with the best-fit line passing very close to the origin of the Mn-conversion plot. The isolated and purified TEMPO-capped PMDP polymers have been employed to prepare chain extended polymers upon addition of more MDP monomer. These results are suggestive of the “living” polymerization process. A possible polymerization mechanism might involve thermal homolysis of the TEMPO-PMDP bonds followed by the addition of the monomers. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The investigation of cure kinetics and relationships between glass transition temperature and conversion of biphenyl epoxy resin (4,4′-diglycidyloxy-3,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl biphenyl) with different phenolic hardeners was performed by differential scanning calorimeter using an isothermal approach over the temperature range 120-150°C. All kinetic parameters of the curing reaction including the reaction order, activation energy, and rate constant were calculated and reported. The results indicate that the curing reaction of formulations using xylok and dicyclopentadiene type phenolic resins (DCPDP) as hardeners proceeds through a first-order kinetic mechanism, whereas the curing reaction of formulations using phenol novolac as a hardener goes through an autocatalytic kinetic mechanism. The differences of curing reaction with the change of hardener in biphenyl epoxy resin systems were explained with the relationships between Tg and reaction conversion using the DiBenedetto equation. A detailed cure mechanism in biphenyl-type epoxy resin with the different hardeners has been suggested. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 773-783, 1998

    Notes: Poly[oxy(ethylthiomethyl)ethylene] (ETE) was prepared from poly[oxy (chloromethyl)ethylene] (CE) by reaction with sodium ethanethiolate. Sulfoxide and sulfone analogues were synthesized by oxidation of the poly[oxy(ethylthiomethyl)ethylene]. By changing the chloromethyl/sodium ethanethiolate ratio, poly[oxy (chloromethyl)ethylene-co-oxy(ethylthiomethyl)ethylene] (CE-ETEs) were easily made. Poly[oxy(ethylsulfinylmethyl)ethylene] (ESXE), poly[oxy(chloromethyl)ethylene-co-oxy(ethylsulfinylmethyl)ethylene] (CE-ESXEs), poly[oxy(ethylsulfonylmethyl)ethylene] (ESE), and poly[oxy(chloromethyl)ethylene-co-oxy(ethylsulfonylmethyl)ethylene] (CE-ESEs) were obtained by oxidation of ETE or CE-ETEs. There was little if any chain degradation. The (co)polymer structures were confirmed by FTIR and 1H-NMR spectroscopic studies. Their thermal properties were studied by DSC and TGA. Tgs of ETE, ESXE, and ESE were -57, 36, and 57°C, respectively, and Td,os (initial decomposition temperature, TGA) were 331, 198, and 308°C, respectively. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Graft copolymers consisting of polyamide 12 or poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) as backbone polymers and side chains of poly(ethylene oxide) have been synthesized. The amide and hydroxyl groups of the backbone polymers were used as initiation sites for the polymerization of ethylene oxide (EO). Potassium tert-butoxide was used for ionization of the active groups, and the polymerization of EO was carried out in dimethyl sulfoxide. The graft copolymers were characterized with respect to molecular weight and composition using elemental analysis, 1H-NMR, gel permeation chromatography, and FTIR. The size of the side chains varied between 300 and 1000 g/mol. Thermal properties were examined by DSC. The graft copolymers showed increasing crystallinity and increasing melt temperature with increasing molecular weight of the side chains. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: This work synthesized a series of new polyamides by direct polycondensation of 1,3-bis[4-(4-carboxyphenoxy)phenyl]adamantane (I) with various diamines. The diacid I was synthesized from 1,3-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)adamantane in two steps. Polyamides III were soluble in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc), and pyridine. The polyamides had medium inherent viscosities of 0.30-0.55 dL/g and number-average molecular weights (Mn) of 22,000-36,000. The polyamides IIIa and IIIb had tensile strengths of 59.8 and 77.5 MPa, elongation to breakage values of 5.8 and 7.6%, and initial moduli of 1.9 and 1.8 GPa, respectively. Their glass transition temperatures were found to be 219-295°C by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) reveals that the incorporation of rigid and bulky diamantane into polyamides IIIa and IIIb leads to high glass transition temperatures (Tgs), at 299 and 286°C, respectively. The decomposition temperatures of polyamides III at a 5% weight loss ranged from 388 to 416°C in air and from 408 to 435°C in N2 atmosphere. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A new dicarboxylic acid having a kinked structure was synthesized from the condensation of 2,2′-bis(4-aminophenoxy)biphenyl and trimellitic anhydride. A series of biphenyl-2,2′-diyl-containing aromatic poly(amide-imide)s having inherent viscosities of 0.23-0.94 dL/g was prepared by the triphenyl phosphite activated polycondensation from the diimide-diacid II with various aromatic diamines in a medium consisting of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), pyridine, and calcium chloride. Most of the resulting polymers showed an amorphous nature and were readily soluble in a variety of organic solvents including NMP and N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc). Transparent, flexible, and tough films of these polymers could be cast from DMAc or NMP solutions. The glass transition temperatures of these polymers were in the range of 227-261°C and the 10% weight loss temperatures were above 520°C in nitrogen. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Atom transfer radical polymerization has been used to prepare well-defined vinyl macromonomers of polystyrene using vinyl chloroacetate as an initiator. Because styrene and vinyl chloroacetate do not copolymerize, no branching or incorporation of the initiator into the backbone was observed. Macromonomers of several molecular weights were prepared and copolymerized free radically with N-vinylpyrrolidinone in varying feed ratios in order to produce poly(NVP-g-Sty) graft copolymers. The macromonomers used were of sufficiently high molecular weight to form physical crosslinks in solvents which favor the hydrophilic NVP, such as water, which prevent the copolymer from dissolving and cause it to swell. These materials, therefore, formed hydrogels of swellabilities in water exceeding 95%, depending on the amount of styrene that was incorporated into the copolymer. Limitations of and alternatives to this method are also discussed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 823-830, 1998

The relative reactivities of these monomers towards cationic polymerization are: 3 〉 2 〉 1; and 6 〉 5 〉 4. With both five- and six-membered ring cyclic ketene acetals, the reactivity increased with increasing methyl substitution on the ring. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A series of ammonium salts of poly(amide acid)s (PAS) were prepared from various poly(amide acid)s (PAA) with tertiary amines. The solubility of poly(amide acid) ammonium salts prepared from PAA(PMDA/ODA) in water is related to the ion concentration of tertiary amines. In order to elucidate the influence of the chemical structures of poly(amide acid)s and poly(amide acid) ammonium salts on their absorption spectra, pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA), 3,3′,4,4 ′-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (BPDA), and 3,3′,4,4 ′-benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA) were chosen to react with p-phenylenediamine (PDA) and (4,4′-diaminodicyclohexyl)methane (DCHM) to give three kinds of aromatic PAAs and three kinds of alicyclic PAAs. The corresponding PASs were prepared by the reaction of PAAs with triethanolamine (TEA). Their ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectra were investigated compared to those of model compounds. A transparent film without absorption above 320 nm was obtained for PAS(PMDA/DCHM). The difference in absorption spectra of PAS(PMDA/PDA) from that of PAS(PMDA/DCHM) can be related to the existence of intra- and intermolecular charge transfer (CT) for PAS(PMDA/PDA). The absorption spectra of PASs with PDA in films are red shifted compared to those of corresponding PAAs in films, while the absorption spectra of PASs in water are blue shifted compared to those of corresponding PAAs in DMF. No differences in the absorption spectra of PAAs and PASs were found in DMF/H2O (9/1) mixed solvent. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 1329-1340, 1998

    Notes: Two types of crosslinked polyurethanes (PU) have been synthesized: (a) PU crosslinked by metal ions (Cu2+ and Co2+), and (b) PU crosslinked by the complexes of metals with crown ether. Using X-ray scattering under small and wide angles the peculiarities of the structure of networks have been investigated. It was found that PU crosslinked by the metal crown ether complexes have a looser structure because of the bulky crosslink and diminished molecular mobility of the chains between two crosslinks, as was proven by the dielectric spectroscopy method. The X-ray and IR data have allowed proposing a scheme of the structure of the crosslinked PU with various types of crosslinks. The structures discovered may be considered as similar to metal catenandes. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 1379-1386, 1998

    Notes: Star-shaped polyesters were prepared by polycondensation of tetraacetoxyspirobis(indane) and a 1 : 1 mixture of silylated β-(4-acetoxyphenyl)propionic acid and silylated 4-acetoxybenzoic acid. The lengths of the star arms were systematically varied, and the influence of the star center on the stability of the nematic phase was studied. It was found that on the average more than 10 monomer units per star arm are required to stabilize a homogeneous LC-phase. Furthermore, a second class of star-shaped polyesters consisting of β-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionic acid (HPPA), 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (HBA), and 6-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid (HNA) was prepared. This ternary copolyester proved to reduce the crystallinity but to stabilize the LC-character. A homogeneous nematic melt was obtained with 6 monomer units per star arm. This interpretation is based on optical microscopy which provides a static picture of the biphasic situation. Therefore, a preliminary study of the melt rheology was included, which proved that the typical LC-character of the melt was detectable ateven shorter star arms due to the shear orientation. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The conductivities of polyaniline (PANi) composites doped with the copolymeric acids such as poly(methyl methacrylate-co-p-styrenesulfonic acid) (PMMA-co-SSA), poly(styrene-co-p-styrenesulfonic acid) (PS-co-SSA), and poly(methyl methacrylate-co-2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid) (PMMA-co-AMPS) were investigated as a function of the acid content in the copolymeric acid dopants. With the fixed ratio of acid to aniline (1/1) in the PANi composites, the conductivities of the copolymeric acid-doped PANis decreased as the acid content in the copolymeric acids decreased. This could be attributed to the nonacidic units in the copolymeric acids which seemed to prevent adjacent acid groups from doping the PANi. Among the three kinds of copolymeric acid dopants, the PMMA-co-SSA series doped the PANi most effectively, and consequently, the PMMA-co-SSA-doped PANi composites showed the highest conductivities. The lack of conductivities of the PMMA-co-AMPS-doped PANi composites seems to be due to the doping ability of the AMPS groups. The higher conductivities of the PMMA-co-SSA-doped PANi composites rather than the PS-co-SSA-doped ones were attributed to the hydrogen bonding formed between the carbonyl groups in MMA and the amine groups in aniline which may hinder the phase separation and induce more homogeneous mixing and efficient doping. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A thermotropic, liquid crystalline copolyester, based on 2-chlorohydroquinone, 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol and terephthaloyl chloride, has been synthesized and melt spun. The cyclohexanedimethylene moiety acts as a semirigid spacer, introducing flexibility while preserving the thermotropic nature of the polymer. Melt-spun fibers were observed to have a high degree of molecular alignment owing to the nematic nature of the melt. Both polymer and fiber properties have been characterized. Characterization techniques used to this end include elemental analysis, hot-stage polarized light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, dilute solution viscometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetric analysis. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Three nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs, 2-(4-isobutylphenyl)-propionic acid (ibuprofen), 2-(3-benzoylphenyl)-propionic acid (ketoprofen), and 2-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)-propionic acid (naproxen), were covalently linked with 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA). The drug-linked HEMA (M1) (ibuprofen-linked HEMA abbreviated as HI; ketoprofen-linked HEMA as HK, and naproxen-linked HEMA as HN), were respectively copolymerized with methacrylic acid (M2), MA, to obtain macromolecular prodrugs. The compositions of the copolymers were determined by means of a 1H-NMR spectroscopy and monomer reactivity ratios were estimated using the Kelen-Tüdös linear differential equation. The reactivity ratios are: r1 = 0.101 ± 0.012, r2 = 1.071 ± 0.065 for HI-MA; r1 = 0.344 ± 0.066, r2 = 0.966 ± 0.032 for HN-MA, and r1 = 0.650 ± 0.182, r2 = 1.032 ± 0.106 for HK-MA, respectively. The monomer reactivity toward to MA radical estimated from 1/r2 values is almost same for all three monomers (1/r2 ∼ 1). The glass transition temperatures of three drug-linked homopolymers go hand in hand with the steric hindrance of three drugs, i.e., ketoprofen 〉 naproxen ≫ ibuprofen calculated the minimum energy by computer molecular modeling. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The radical polymerization of N-acryloyl-N′-(p-tolylsulfonyl)urea (2), prepared easily by the reaction of p-toluenesulfonyl isocyanate with acrylamide, was carried out in DMF, DMSO, or NMP at 60°C by use of AIBN as an initiator to give a polymer 3 in a good yield. Copolymerization parameters of 2 were evaluated by the copolymerization with MMA. Polymer 3 was readily hydrolyzed in an aqueous NaOH solution (1M) at room temperature to give poly(acrylic acid). The reason for the higher activity for hydrolysis of 3 compared to an ordinary amide is discussed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 1515-1519, 1998

    Notes: Sequential polymerizations of first propylene and then ethylene, propylene mixtures with the same Ziegler-Natta catalyst system produce in situ blends known as high-impact polypropylenes. Over 100 high-impact polypropylenes are characterized in terms of weight fractions and sequence distributions for isotactic polypropylene, atactic polypropylene, an amorphous ethylene propylene copolymer, and a crystalline ethylene propylene copolymer. The apparent r1r2 behaviors of the E/P copolymers suggest that the amorphous and crystalline E/P copolymers principally arise from different types of catalyst sites as opposed to originating strictly from compositional heterogeneities. The amorphous copolymers consistently have r1r2 values close to unity over a broad range of compositions, while the corresponding crystalline copolymers have apparent r1r2 values that range from 2 to over 20. An apparent r1r2 close to unity not only reflects random sequencing but also indicates a narrow compositional distribution. This r1r2 result indicates that the amorphous E/P copolymers are produced from a singular type of catalyst site. The higher r1r2 values shown by the crystalline E/P copolymers indicate broad compositional distributions that are produced by a different type or types of catalyst sites. The ratio of amorphous to crystalline ethylene, propylene copolymers is nominally around 80/20 over a broad range of impact copolymer compositions. The consistency of this result suggests that the two basic types of catalyst sites producing E/P copolymers are also in an approximate 80/20 ratio. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES) was used to identify reactive species and their excitation states in low-temperature cascade arc plasmas of N2, CF4, C2F4, CH4, and CH3OH. In a cascade arc plasma, the plasma gas (argon or helium) was excited in the cascade arc generator and injected into a reactor in vacuum. A reactive gas was injected into the cascade arc torch (CAT) that was expanding in the reactor. What kind of species of a reactive gas, for example, nitrogen, are created in the reactor is dependent on the electronic energy levels of the plasma gas in the cascade arc plasma jet. OES revealed that no ion of nitrogen was found when argon was used as the plasma gas of which metastable species had energy less than the ionization energy of nitrogen. When helium was used, ions of nitrogen were found. While OES is a powerful tool to identify the products of the cascade arc generation (activation process), it is less useful to identify the reactive species that are responsible for surface modification of polymers and also for plasma polymerization. The plasma surface modification and plasma polymerization are deactivation processes that cannot be identified by photoemission, which is also a deactivation process. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Bivalent organolanthanides with unbridged substituted indenyl or fluorenyl ligands (1-SiMe3Ind)2YTHF (I), (9-SiMe3Flu)2YTHF (II), were found to efficiently catalyze the stereoregular polymerization of methyl methacrylate. The microstructure of resultant polymers was shown to be dependent of a conformation that the ligands adopt at the polymerization temperature. The formation of isotactic rich PMMAs from complex II was proposed to be associated with the fluctuation of the 9-trimethylsilylfluorenyls around a C2 symmetric twisted-conformation. The formation of the multi(syndioPMMA-block-iso-PMMA) polymers from the mixture of rac- and meso-isomers of I was rationalized on the basis of competing conjugate addition and inversion of the metallocene conformation. Surprisingly, both rac- and meso-isomers of I were found to operate with similar activity and stereospecifity, although the stereospecific operation of the meso-form was not completely understandable. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Norbornene-ethylene copolymers were prepared using the metallocene catalyst ethylene bis (indenyl) zirconium dichloride with MAO, and their microstructure was characterized with 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR methods. From a Cosy 1H-NMR spectrum it was found that all norbornene units are enchained in the exo-configuration. The sequence distribution of norbornene units was investigated using 13C-1H correlations, hmqc for one-bond correlations, and hmbc for two- or three-bond correlations. It was shown that norbornene diads were formed at a high norbornene content (45 mol %). When further increasing the norbornene incorporation (66 mol %) a number of new signals were obtained. A Cosy 1H-NMR spectrum revealed a new crosspeak which, according to the corresponding 13C-NMR shifts (hmqc), correlated well with a terminal unit of a trimer of norbornene. This means that at very high norbornene contents, norbornene triads can be formed. Because the formation of isotactic norbornene triads is very difficult to understand from a sterical point of view, an epimerization process causing stereoirregularities in the norbornene triad is proposed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The new monomer, α-methoxy-3,6-endo-methylene-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthaloyl-5-fluorouracil (MMTFU), was synthesized from 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and α-methoxy-3,6-endo-methylene-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthaloyl chloride (MMTC). Poly(α-methoxy-3,6-endo-methylene-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthaloyl-5-fluorouracil) [poly(MMTFU)], poly(α-methoxy-3,6-endo-methylene-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthaloyl-5-fluorouracil-co-acrylicco-AA), and poly(α-methoxy-3,6-endo-methylene-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthaloyl-5-fluorouracil-co-vinyl acetate) [poly(MMTFU-co-VAc)] were synthesized by photopolymerizations using 2,2-dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone (DMP) as the photoinitiator. The synthesized MMTFU and the polymers were identified by FT-IR, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR spectroscopies. The contents of MMTFU in poly(MMTFU-co-AA) and poly(MMTFU-co-VAc) determined by elemental analysis were 63 and 57 mol %, respectively. The number average molecular weights and polydispersity indices of synthesized polymers determined with GPC were in range of 7,700-19,100 and 1.6-2.7. The in vitro cytotoxicities of samples were evaluated with mouse mammary carcinoma (FM3A), mouse leukemia (P388), and human histiocytic lymphoma (U937) as cancer cell lines and mouse liver cells (AC2F) as a normal cell line. The cytotoxicities of 5-FU and synthesized samples against cancer cell lines increased in following orders: 5-FU 〉 MMTFU 〉 poly(MMTFU) 〉 poly(MMTFU-co-AA) 〉 poly(MMTFU-co-VAc). The in vivo antitumor activities of the synthesized samples against mice bearing the sarcoma 180 tumor cell line were evaluated. The in vivo antitumor activities of the polymers were greater than that of 5-FU at a dose of 80 mg/kg. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 1625-1632, 1998

    Notes: The application of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) to the homopolymerization of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, a functional monomer, is reported. The polymerizations exhibit first-order kinetics, and molecular weights increase linearly with conversion. Polydispersities remain low throughout the polymerization (Mw/Mn ≈ 1.2). Reactions were conducted in bulk and in 1 : 1 (by volume) aqueous solution; the latter demonstrates the resilience of ATRP to protic media. Analysis of poly(2-hydroxyethyl acrylate) by MALDI-MS and 1H-NMR shows Mn,exp to be much closer to Mn,th than those observed by SEC using polystyrene standards. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: It has been about 10 years since the first intentional preparation of hyperbranched polymer was disclosed. Hyperbranched polymers, as well as dendrimers, may find utilities in the areas where the structural uniqueness of these polymers gives merit. There has been much progress in the structural understanding and the methods of synthesis of these polymers. However, functional understanding and utility of these polymers are still in infancy. Better understanding on physical properties of these polymers, such as solubility and miscibility of these polymers in solvents or with polymers, and functional group dependency to the thermal relaxation process are needed for further development of the subject. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: It was found that poly(butadiene), poly(isoprene), and poly(2,3-dimethylbutadiene) with high cis-1,4 content were obtained with Nd(OCOR)3-(i-Bu)3Al-Et2AlCl catalysts (R = CF3, CCl3, CHCl2, CH2Cl, CH3) in hexane at 50°C [cis-1,4 content: poly(BD), 〉 98%; poly(IP), ≥ 96%; poly(DMBD), ≥ 94%]. Copolymerization of IP and styrene (St) was carried out at various monomer feed ratios to evaluate the monomer reactivity ratio and cis-1,4 content of the diene unit and then to elucidate the cis-1,4 polymerization mechanism of IP. The cis-1,4 content of the IP unit in the copolymers decreased with increasing St content in the copolymers. The cis-1,4 polymerization was disturbed by incorporating St unit in the copolymers, since the penultimate St unit hardly coordinates to the neodymium metal, resulting in a decrease of the cis-1,4 content in the copolymers. That is, the cis-1,4 polymerization of IP is suggested to be controlled by a back-biting coordination of the penultimate diene unit. On the other hand, in the case of poly(BD-co-IP) and poly(BD-co-DMBD), the cis-1,4 content of the BD, IP, and DMBD units in the copolymers was almost constant (cis: 94-98%), irrespective of the monomer feed ratios and polymerization temperature. Consequently, the penultimate IP and DMBD units favorably control the terminal BD, IP, or DMBD unit to the cis-1,4 configuration through the back-biting coordination. For the monomer reactivity ratios, a clear difference was observed in each system: rBD = 1.22, rIP = 1.14; rBD = 40.9, rDMBD = 0.15. Low polymerizability of DMBD was mainly ascribed to the steric effect of the methyl substituents. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 1707-1716, 1998

    Notes: The most important variable affecting the yield in the coupling reactions of polymeric organolithium compounds with chlorosilane compounds has been investigated through size-exclusion chromatographic (SEC) analysis. The coupling reaction of poly(styryl)lithium with dichlorodimethylsilane as a silane-coupling agent provided 44 wt % of the coupling yield. The coupling yield, depending on the chain end reactivity of active polymers, was not greatly affected. The addition of a Lewis base such as N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) even after complete polymerization of the dienes in hydrocarbon seems to affect the coupling reaction, resulting in decreasing the yield. The 1,2- or 3,4-enchain contents in the polydiene backbones affected the reduction of the linking efficiency in the coupling of the poly(dienyl)lithiums with chlorosilanes as the linking agent. The linking yields of the active polymers including over 75 mol % of 1,2- or 3,4-enchainment on the polydiene segment were below 20 wt %. The linking yields exhibited a dependence not only on the steric requirement of the chain end, but also the microstructure of the polydiene segment. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A polymer having dibenzothiophenium salt moieties [poly(sulfonium salt), 2] was prepared by the reaction of poly(2-vinyldibenzothiophene) (1) with CH3I and AgBF4 in CH2ClCH2Cl at room temperature for 24 h. The obtained polymer 2 was found to contain 71% of the methyldibenzothiophenium tetrafluoroborate unit. A monomer carrying the sulfonium salt moiety, i.e., 5-methyl-2-vinyldibenzothiophenium tetrafluoroborate (4), was independently prepared and subjected to radical polymerization to give a polymer (5) in 88% yield (methyldibenzothiophenium tetrafluoroborate unit: 79%). The thermal decompositions of 2 and 5 took place in two steps; the first step involved the formation of polymer 1 by demethylation. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The influence of different types of low and atmospheric pressure plasma on poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) has been studied in terms of changes in molar mass and molar mass distribution. Apart from a variation of plasma gases (oxygen, helium) different types of plasma (microwave, radio frequency, corona discharge) were used for the plasma surface modification. The changes in molar mass and types of functional end groups of lower molar mass products were investigated by means of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS), whereas the high-molar mass fraction was analyzed by means of size-exclusion chromatography (SEC). The formation of crosslinked products during exposure to a helium plasma, which emits preponderately energy-rich and intense ultraviolet radiation, was proved by means of thermal field-flow fractionation (ThFFF). This method combined with a multiangle laser light scattering (MALLS) detector allows detection of weakly crosslinked polymers and microgels. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Poly(benzobisthiazole)s containing an ortho-tetramethyl substituted biphenyl moiety were synthesized via the polycondensation of 2,5-diamino-1,4-benzenedithiol dihydrochloride with 2,2′,6,6′-tetramethylbiphenyl-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid in poly(phosphoric acid) (PPA). The intrinsic viscosities of the tetramethylbiphenyl poly-(benzobisthiazole)s in chlorosulfonic acid at 30°C were in the range of 6.9-13.4 dL/g. Copolycondensation of 2,5-diamino-1,4-benzenedithiol dihydrochloride with terephthalic acid and 2,2′,6,6′-tetramethylbiphenyl-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid was carried out as well by varying the ratio of the two dicarboxylic acid monomers in the reactant mixture. The homopolymers and copolymers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and 13C solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). Thermal stability of the polymers was evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and thermogravimetric mass spectrum analysis (TG-MS). The tetramethylbiphenyl poly(benzobisthiazole)s were found to be more stable at elevated temperatures than the parent poly(p-phenylene benzobisthiazole) (PBZT). © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Two flexible dicarboxylic acid monomers, 4,4′-[isopropylidenebis(1,4-phenylene)dioxy]dibenzoic acid (1) and 4,4′-[hexafluoroisopropylidenebis(1,4-phenylene)-dioxy]dibenzoic acid (3), were synthesized from readily available compounds in two steps in high yields. High molecular-weight polyhydrazides and poly(amide-hydra-zide)s were directly prepared from dicarboxylic acids 1 and 3 with terephthalic dihydrazide (5), isophthalic dihydrazide (6), and p-aminobenzhydrazide (7) by the phosphorylation reaction by means of diphenyl phosphite (DPP) and pyridine in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP)/LiCl, or prepared from the diacyl chlorides of 1 and 3 with the hydrazide monomers 5-7 by the low-temperature solution polycondensation in NMP/LiCl. Less favorable results were obtained when using triphenyl phosphite (TPP) instead of DPP in the direct polycondensation reactions. Except for those derived from terephthalic dihydrazide, the resulting polyhydrazides and poly(amide-hydrazide)s could be cast into colorless, flexible, and tough films with good tensile strengths. All the hydrazide polymers and copolymers are amorphous in nature and are readily soluble in various polar solvents such as NMP and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Their Tgs were recorded in the range of 162-198°C and could be thermally cyclodehydrated into the corresponding polyoxadiazoles and poly(amide-oxadiazole)s approximately in the region of 300-380°C, as evidenced by the DSC thermograms. The oxadiazole polymers and copolymers showed a dramatically decreased solubility and higher Tg when compared to their respective hydrazide prepolymers. They exhibited Tgs of 190-216°C and were stable up to 450°C in air or nitrogen. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 1847-1854, 1998

    Notes: The synthesis of novel polyisobutylene (PIB)/poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) bicomponent networks is described. The synthesis strategy (see Figure 1) was to prepare well-defined and -characterized allyl-tritelechelic polyisobutylenes [φ(PIB - C - C=C)3] and SiH-ditelechelic poly(dimethylsiloxanes) (HSi-PDMS-SiH) and then crosslink these moieties by hydrosilation. The φ(PIB - C - C=C)3 was prepared by living isobutylene polymerization followed by end-quenching with allyltrimethylsilane, whereas the HSi-PDMS-SiH was obtained by equilibrium polymerization of octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane and tetramethyldisiloxane. The detailed structures of the starting polymers were characterized by GPC and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. A series of PIB/PDMS bicomponent networks of varying compositions and average molecular weights between crosslinks (Mc) of ∼ 20,000 g/mol were assembled. Optimum crosslinking conditions were defined in terms of H2PtCl6 catalyst concentration, nature of solvent, time, temperature, and stoichiometry of ∼ CH2CH=CH2/∼SiH groups, allowing for the convenient synthesis of well-defined model bicomponent networks. Swelling studies and elemental analysis confirm the correctness of the synthetic strategy. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 1891-1899, 1998

    Notes: The first part of this series concerned the synthesis of novel polyisobutylene (PIB)/poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) bicomponent networks; the present paper concerns the structure and property characterization of a series of bicomponent networks of varying compositions (PIB wt %/PDMS wt % = 92/8, 70/30, 50/50, 35/65) having average molecular weights between crosslinks (Mc) of ˜ 20,000 g/mol. According to network structure analysis by uniaxial equilibrium stress-strain measurements, the experimental Mc's are in excellent agreement with theoretical values. Hydrosilation end-linking efficiency was quantitated by the amount of sol and functional group analysis by 1H-NMR spectroscopy. NMR evidence indicates double-bond isomerization during hydrosilation. Network compositions by elemental analysis together with the low sol fractions indicate efficient crosslinking. These data suggest highly efficient network formation and well-defined bicomponent network structures. While PIB and PDMS showed Tg's at -72 and -124°C, respectively, the bicomponent network did not exhibit clearly discernible phase transitions. The heat stability of bicomponent networks increased slightly with increasing PDMS content showing initial (10%) degradation temperatures at ˜ 380°C in nitrogen and ˜ 320°C in air. Tensile strengths and elongations were dependent on composition and varied in the 0.6-3.8 MPa and 600-1100% ranges, respectively. The swelling behavior was not much affected by composition. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 1901-1910, 1998

    Notes: This study examines the legitimacy of using the reaction kinetics of low molecular weight model compounds in solution to predict the chemical kinetics of polymer-bound species in a homogeneous melt. The reaction under study takes place between an aliphatic secondary amine, diisooctadecylamine (DiOA), and a 5-membered anhydride ring, saturated maleic anhydride (MA), forming an amic acid product. The MA species was present as a pendant graft on either a model compound, dodecane-g-(maleic anhydride) (dodecane-g-MA), or a polymer chain, linear low-density polyethylene-g-(maleic anhydride) (LLDPE-g-MA). Pseudo-second-order kinetics of the anhydride consumption are followed by infrared spectroscopy, either in situ in dodecane solution or by scanning frozen film samples taken from a linear low-density polyethylene melt. It was found that the LLDPE-g-MA/DiOA system reacted at a slightly slower rate than the dodecane-g-MA/DiOA system in the low-viscosity solution at 140°C. In the melt, the dodecane-g-MA/DiOA system experienced a small decrease in the overall reaction rate compared to the same reaction carried out in dodecane. However, the LLDPE-g-MA/DiOA system underwent a 65% decrease in the observed second-order rate constant on going from a solution to the melt. To explain these phenomena, the effects of diffusion, miscibility, and chain entanglements in the melt are examined here. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 1573-1582, 1998

    Notes: The modeling of the semibatch emulsion polymerization of styrene and its validation against data obtained from a reactor facility is presented. The model, which describes the growth of a monodisperse polystyrene seed as neat monomer is fed to the reactor, incorporates recent findings in radical diffusion and kinetics. The current controversy surrounding radical absorption into particles is handled by considering absorption via propagation, diffusion, and collision in the model. Simulation results including weight fraction polymer inside the particles and particle diameter are compared to data obtained from a custom-designed and built automated reactor control facility capable of on-line density and on-line particle diameter measurements. Good agreement between simulation results and experimental data are obtained for any of the three absorption mechanisms considered by varying only one adjustable parameter located in the absorption rate coefficient relation. A sensitivity analysis of the model to this adjustable parameter, using the program ODESSA, is also presented and shown to be an important tool in the validation procedure. Lastly, an analysis of the dynamics of the process shows the variety of phenomena that can be obtained in a semibatch reactor including regions that exhibit pseudosteady states, autoacceleration of the rate, and limiting conversion. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Synthesis of poly(styrene-b-tetrahydrofuran (THF)-b-styrene) triblock copolymers was performed by transformation from living cationic into living radical polymerization, using 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (4-hydroxy-TEMPO) as a transforming agent. Sodium 4-oxy-TEMPO, derived from 4-hydroxy-TEMPO, reacted with the living poly(THF), which was prepared by cationic polymerization of THF using trifluoromethanesulfonic acid anhydride as an initiator, resulting in quantitative formation of the poly(THF) with TEMPO at both the chain ends. The resulting polymers were able to serve as a polymeric counter radical for the radical polymerization of styrene by benzoyl peroxide, to give the corresponding triblock copolymer in quantitative efficiency. The polymerization was found to proceed in accordance with a living mechanism, because the conversion of styrene linearly increased over time, and the molar ratio of styrene to THF units in the copolymer also increased as a result of increasing the conversion. The TEM pictures demonstrated that the resulting copolymers promoted microphase segregation. It was found that the films of these copolymers showed contact angles intermediate between those of poly(THF) and of polystyrene. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A convenient method of preparing ultrafine poly(methylstyrene) (PMS) latex particles with aldehyde groups on the surface is developed. PMS latexes in the size range 33-81 nm were prepared via microemulsion polymerization, using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as surfactant. The surface of the PMS latexes was oxidized in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide catalyzed by copper(II) chloride. As the degree of oxidation increased up to 6 h, the amounts of aldehyde group increased. Bigger particles were found to have a slightly higher rate of oxidation than small ones under the same oxidation conditions. The particle size underwent little change during oxidation; thus, the amounts of functional groups and the particle size could be controlled concurrently. Dialysis study of the oxidized PMS microlatexes indicated that the instability of highly oxidized PMS microlatexes was caused by the reduction of total surface charge density due to the presence of carboxylic acid groups. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Optically active poly[triphenylmethyl methacrylate-co-phenyl[bis(2-pyridyl)]methyl methacrylate] (poly[TrMA-co-PB2PyMA], poly[diphenyl(2-pyridyl)methyl methacrylate-co-phenyl[bis(2-pyridyl)]methyl methacrylate] (poly[D2PyMA-co-PB2PyMA]), and poly[triphenylmethyl methacrylate-co-diphenyl(2-pyridyl)-methyl methacrylate] (poly[TrMA-co-D2PyMA]) were prepared by helix-sense-selective copolymerization with complexes of organolithium with (-)-sparteine [(-)Sp],(S, S)-(+)- and (R, R)-(-)-2,3-dimethoxy-1,4-bis(dimethylamino)butane [(+)- and (-)DDB], and (S)-(+)-2-(1-pyrrolidinylmethyl)pyridine [(+)PMP] as anionic initiators in toluene at low temperature. The copolymers obtained with (-)Sp and (+)DDB or (-)DDB complexes of organolithium showed low optical activity, but to [(+)PMP] complex with N,N′-diphenyleneamine monolithium amide [(+)PMP-DPEDA-Li)] was effective in synthesizing copolymers of high optical rotation ([α]25D about +320 to + 370°) which were comparable to those of corresponding homopolymers with one-handed helical structure. The optical rotations of poly[TrMA-co-PB2PyMA] and poly[TrMA-co-D2PyMA] were much more stable than that of poly(D2PyMA) or poly(PB2PyMA) in a solution of CHCl3-2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (10 : 1, v/v) at 25°C, but optical rotation of poly[D2PyMA-co-PB2PyMA] slowly decreased with time in the same conditions. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Palladium-catalyzed polycondensation between 2,5-diiodo-3-hexylthiophene I-Th(Hex)-I with mixtures of p-diethynylbenzene HC≡C - Ph - C≡CH and α,ω-diethynylalkane HC≡C(CH2)lC≡CH (l = 3 or 8) gives poly(aryleneethynylene) PAE-type copolymers [C≡C(CH2)lC≡C - Th(Hex)]m[C≡C - Ph - C≡C - Th(Hex)]n containing the methylene unit. The copolymers have a molecular weight (Mn) of about 1.2 × 104 as determined by GPC (polystyrene standard) and are considered to possess essentially a random sequences in view of the  - C≡C(CH2)lC≡C -  and  - C≡C - Ph - C≡C -  units as judged from their UV-visible spectra. By the incorporation of the (CH2)l unit, the λmax position of the corresponding PAE homopolymer [C≡C - Ph - C≡C - Th(Hex)]n is shifted to a shorter wavelength. However, the copolymers give rise to a photoluminescence PL peak essentially agreeing with a PL peak of the homopolymer, suggesting occurrence of energy transfer in the copolymer. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: We studied the photolysis of a fluoroethylene-fluoropropylene copolymer (FEP) film by vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) radiation from a resonance Xe lamp at a wavelength of 147 nm and air pressures of 0.05 and 2.5 Torr. The chemical changes in the FEP surface layer were investigated by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy with attenuated total reflection attachment and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Double bonds were found to be the main product in the case of VUV treatment at 0.05 Torr, while photo-oxidation of FEP occurred predominantly by VUV treatment at 2.5 Torr under formation of the  - CF2C(O)F group. This oxygen-containing group was more effectively formed in the FEP surface layer by VUV photo-oxidation than by conventional surface oxidation techniques such as treatments by plasma and corona discharge and ozone. Storage of the VUV-treated polymers in air at 50% relative humidity resulted in hydrolysis of  - CF2C(O)F to the  - CF2COOH group. Substantial improvement of the film wettability was noticed after VUV photo-oxidation. These findings suggest that VUV irradiation provides a high potential for surface modification of fluorinated polymers which are known to be particularly resistant against functionalization by conventional surface modification techniques such as plasma treatment. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A positive-working photosensitive polyimide precursor based on fluorinated poly(amic acid) (FPAA) and 2,3,4-tris(1-oxo-2-diazonaphthoquinon-4-ylsulfonyloxy)benzophenone (D4SB) as a photosensitive compound has been developed. FPAA was prepared by ring-opening polyaddition of dianhydrides, pyromellitic dianhydride and biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride, with diamine, 2,2′-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, in methanol. The FPAA film showed excellent transparency to UV light and good solubility in a wide range of organic solvents. The dissolution behavior of FPAA containing 30 wt % D4SB after exposure was studied, and it was found that the difference of dissolution rate between exposed and unexposed parts was enough to get high contrast due to the photochemical reaction of D4SB in the polymer film. The photosensitive fluorinated polyimide (FPI) precursor containing 30 wt % D4SB showed a sensitivity of 80 mJ cm-2 and a contrast of 7.8 with 365 nm light when it was developed with 0.3% aqueous tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide solution at room temperature. The FPI film cured up to 360°C had a low coefficient of thermal expansion of 10.3 ppm °C-1 and a low dielectric constant of 3.04. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J. Polym. Sci. A Polym.

    Notes: New poly(amide-imide)s were prepared from a diimide-dicarboxylic acid, 1,4-bis(4-trimellitimidophenoxy)-2-tert-butylbenzene (BTTB), with various diamines by the direct polycondensation in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP) using triphenyl phosphite and pyridine as condensing agents. The new diimide-dicarboxylic acid BTTB containing an ether linkage and tert-butyl substituent was synthesized by the condensation reaction of 1,4-bis(4-aminophenoxy)-2-tert-butylbenzene with trimellitic anhydride. All the polymers were obtained in quantitative yields with inherent viscosities of 0.62-1.06 dL g-1. The polymers were amorphous, and most of them were readily soluble in aprotic polar solvents such as NMP, N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc), and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), as well as in less polar solvents such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), m-cresol, pyridine, and γ-butyrolactone, and also even in tetrahydrofuran. The glass transition temperatures of the polymers were determined by DSC method, and they were in the range of 238-279°C. These polymers were stable up to 408-449°C in air and 451-483°C in nitrogen and lose 10% weight in the range of 479-525°C in air and 480-528°C in nitrogen atmosphere. The polymer films had a tensile strength range of 71-115 MPa, an elongation at break range of 4-14%, and a tensile modulus range of 2.3-3.1 GPa. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J. Polym. Sci. A Polym.

    Notes: Novel poly(ether urethanes) containing diester groups in the side chains (PU) were synthesized from 4,4′-diphenylmethyl diisocyanate, polytetramethylene glycol, and diethyl bis(hydroxymethyl)malonate as a chain extender. The surface modification of the PU film was carried out by a hydrolysis reaction, poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) grafting, and heparin immobilization, and the surface-modified PUs were then characterized by attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy, electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA), and a contact angle goniometer. The concentration of carboxylic acid groups introduced on the PU surfaces as determined by the rhodamine interaction method was 61 nmol/cm2 when treated with 4N NaOH/methanol (1 : 2 v/v) for 30 min and subsequently with a citric acid-methanolic aqueous solution. The amounts of heparin coupled to the carboxyl groups on the PU surfaces and to the terminus amino groups on the PU-PEO were 0.92 and 0.84 μ g/cm2, respectively. There was almost no heparin released from the immobilized surface of a physiological solution for 100 h, thereby indicating the strong stability of immobilized heparin. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A study of the parameters that affect the Alder Ene reaction with respect to the synthesis of a terminally anhydride-functionalized polypropylene was carried out over a temperature range of 220-250°C using maleic anhydride concentrations of 2-12 mol equivalence with respect to the vinylidene group. As previously observed, a Lewis acid (i.e., SnCl2 · 2H2O) had a catalytic effect on the reaction at these temperatures, thereby improving anhydride content in the polymer for short reaction times. Increased temperature and maleic anhydride concentration had a positive effect on improving the incorporation of the succinyl anhydride moiety at the terminal site in polypropylene. Lower SnCl2 · 2H2O concentrations, likewise, improve the functionality of the product. The application of a second-order kinetic model to the measured succinyl anhydride results was not valid over the entire temperature range studied due to side reactions, particularly vinylidene isomerization, and homopolymerization of maleic anhydride. Ruthenium chloride has been examined as another possible catalyst candidate in the reaction and has been found to improve the level of anhydride incorporation in polypropylene compared to stannous chloride. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Low-viscosity, methoxylated polysiloxane resins incorporating Me2SiO2/2 (D) and SiO4/2 (Q) units were prepared using nonhydrolytic condensation between Si - Cl and Si - OMe groups with the formation of MeCl, catalyzed by a Lewis acid. With the commonly used catalysts, condensation between two Si - OMe groups, with formation of Me2O, also took place to a large extent, hindering the control of the degree of condensation of the resins. Several catalysts were tested by monitoring the formation of MeCl and Me2O using sealed NMR tubes and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The best compromise between reactivity and selectivity was obtained with ZrCl4. Resins with various compositions were prepared in the absence of solvent by condensation between Me2SiCl2 and Si(OMe)4 at 130°C, catalyzed by 1 mol % ZrCl4. They were characterized using viscosimetry, gas chromatography coupled with mass-spectrometry (GC-MS), and quantitative 29Si-NMR spectroscopy. The resins consisted of a complicated mixture of oligomers, linear or branched (n 〉 1) and cyclic (n 〉 3), with a high degree of D/Q bonding. The distribution of Si - OMe and Si - OSi bonds and the bonding between D and Q units were found to be nearly random. This was ascribed to the occurrence of Si - OSi/Si - OMe and Si - OSi/Si - OSi redistribution reactions that reached equilibrium during the synthesis. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J. Polym. Sci.

    Notes: Alkylpropiolate having n-hexadecyl moiety in the ester group was stereospecifically polymerized with a [Rh(norbornadiene)Cl]2 complex catalyst in alcohol to give rise to cis-transoid polyacetylenes in high yields. The unusually facile cis to trans isomerization for the polymer was found to be induced when the polymer was warmed to even less than ca. 57°C. Under these conditions ESR spectra bearing hyperfine structures due to the radicals generated by the rotational scission in the cis-π bond were observed. This isomerization induced a large g value shift in the ESR spectra together with an increase of the radical concentration during the isomerization, indicating formation of planar conjugated trans sequences that stabilize mobile unpaired electrons as solitons. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Controlled free radical polymerization of sugar-carrying methacrylate, 3-O-methacryloyl-1,2 : 5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-d-glucofuranose (MAIpGlc) was achieved by the atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) technique with an alkyl halide/copper-complex system in veratrole at 80°C. The time-conversion first-order plot was linear and the number-average molecular weight increased in direct proportion to the ratio of the monomer conversion to the initial initiator concentration, providing PMAIpGlc with a low polydispersity. The sequential addition of the two monomers styrene (S) and MAIpGlc afforded a block copolymer of the type PS-b-PMAIpGlc. The acidolysis of the homo- and block copolymers gave well-defined glucose-carrying water-soluble polymers PMAGlc and PS-b-PMAGlc, respectively. The amphiphilic PS-b-PMAGlc block copolymer exhibited a microdomain surface morphology with spherical PS domains in a PMAGlc matrix. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J. Polym. Sci. A Polym.

    Notes: New biphenyl-2,2′-diyl-containing aromatic polyamides having a crank and twisted noncoplannar structure were synthesized in inherent viscosities of 0.39-1.42 dL/g by the low-temperature solution polycondensation of 2,2′-bis(4-aminophenyl)biphenyl, prepared in four steps starting from 2-aminobiphenyl, with various aromatic dicarboxylic acid chlorides. These polyamides were readily soluble in a variety of solvents including N,N-dimethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), m-cresol, and pyridine. Transparent, pale-yellow, and flexible films could be cast from the NMP solutions of the polyamides. The aromatic polyamides had glass transition temperatures in the range of 284-320°C, and began to lose weight around 400°C, with 10% weight loss being recorded at about 500°C in air. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The thermoshrinking properties have been studied for the series of N-alkyl-acrylamide hydrogels (alkyl = methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, and n-propyl), which were prepared by free-radical copolymerization of the alkylacrylamide, sodium acrylate, and N,N′-methylenebis(acrylamide) (BIS) in aqueous solution. The reaction mixtures were prepared using the same nominal compositions in an effort to study the effect of the chemical structure of the alkyl substituent on the gel swelling behavior as a function of temperature. The alkyl group was found to have a pronounced effect on the features of gel swelling. Generally, larger alkyl chains produced dramatic decreases in gel transition temperature. In addition, a change in the nature of the swelling behavior from continuous to discontinuous was noted upon changing the alkyl group from ethyl to the two propyl derivatives. Discontinuous transitions were accompanied by hysteresis. The transition temperatures of the isomeric propyl derivatives were found to differ by 12°C, with n-propyl exhibiting the lower value. Additionally, a quantitative correlation was found between the gel transition temperatures and the water/octanol partition coefficients for appropriately chosen small molecule model compounds. The transition temperatures of other gels in the series, including the cyclopropyl derivative and the n-propyl/isopropyl copolymer gels (NIPA/NNPA), also fit this correlation. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The new monomer, α-methoxy-exo-3,6-epoxy-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthaloyl-5-fluorouracil (METFU), was synthesized by the reaction of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and exo-3,6-epoxy-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthalic anhydride (ETA) in order to prepare polymers containing 5-FU moiety. Poly(α-methoxy-exo-3,6-epoxy-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthaloyl-5-fluorouracil) [poly(METFU)], poly(α-methoxy-exo-3,6-epoxy-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthaloyl-5-fluorouraci-co-acrylic acid) [poly(METFU-co-AA)], and poly(α-methoxy-exo-3,6-epoxy-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthaloyl-5-fluorouracil-co-vinyl acetate) [poly(METFU-co- VAc)] were synthesized by photopolymerizations using 2,2-dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone (DMP) as an initiator. The synthesized METFU and the polymers were identified by FTIR and 1H-NMR spectroscopies. The contents of METFU in poly(METFU-co-AA) and poly(METFU-co-VAc) determined by elemental analysis were 52 and 60 mol %, respectively. The average molecular weights and polydispersity indices determined with GPC were as follows: Mn = 9,400, Mw = 11,400 Mw/Mn = 1.21 for poly(METFU), Mn = 14,400, Mw = 26,800, Mw/Mn = 1.86 for poly(METFU-co-AA), and Mn = 23,100, Mw = 33,000, Mw/Mn = 1.43 for poly(METFU-co-VAc). The in vitro cytotoxicities of samples were evaluated with mouse mammary carcinoma (FM3A), mouse leukemia (P388), and human histiocytic lymphoma (U937) as cancer cell lines, and mouse liver cells (AC2F) as a normal cell line. The in vivo antitumor activities of synthesized polymers against mice bearing the sarcoma 180 tumor cell line were greater than those of 5-FU at concentrations of 0.8 and 80 mg/kg. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Transformation of the cationic growing center of living poly(tetrahydrofuran) [poly(THF)] into an anionic one was achieved in high efficiency (62%) by the end-capping of living poly(THF) with potassium iodide followed by the reduction with bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)samarium (Cp*2Sm), whereas the direct reduction with Cp*2Sm without the end-capping resulted in the formation of poly(THF) with pentamethylcyclopentadienyl group at the terminal. The increase in the molecular weight of poly(THF) after the reduction was observed, which indicates the presence of the dimerization of poly(THF) during the reduction. The polymerization of a variety of electrophilic monomers including δ-valerolactone, 2-oxo-1,3-dioxane, and alkyl methacrylates with the macroanion provided good yields of the corresponding block copolymers consisting of both cationically and anionically polymerizable monomers. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Composites of water-soluble conducting polyaniline copolymers, poly(aniline-co-aminobenzenesulfonic acid) (PAOABSA), containing γ-Fe2O3magnetic particles with nanometer size, were synthesized by a chemical method. The ferromagnetic properties of the resulting PAOABSA composites were measured as a function of the pH value of the reaction solution, the sulfonated degree of the copolymer, and the concentration of FeCl2. The structure of the composites was characterized by means of elemental analysis, FTIR, XPS, and X-ray diffraction. It was found that increasing the pH value of the reaction solution and the concentration of FeCl2 is favorable for an enhancement of the saturated magnetization. As high as 33.2 emu/g of saturated magnetization for the PAOABSA composites was observed. No hysteresis loop (i.e. Hc = 0) was observed, which is independent of the preparation conditions. Structure characterizations show that iron oxide existing in the composite is mainly γ- Fe2O3, which is responsible for the ferromagnetic properties of the PAOABSA composites, whereas γ- Fe2O3 magnetic particles nanometer in size (∼85 nm) may be attributed to a lower coercive force (i.e. Hc = 0) of the composites. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The reaction kinetics in the dark of photopolymerized mono- and dimethacrylates in a polymeric binder has been studied. Electron spin resonance spectroscopy (ESR) provided useful information regarding the nature of the radicals involved in postpolymerization reactions. Computer simulations were performed to study the decay of the propagating radicals by considering normal bimolecular termination and transfer reactions of the radicals to the binder. Differences were found in the termination reactions for mono- and difunctional monomers when they were photopolymerized in a solid medium. Absolute kinetic constants for H-transfer reaction with the binder, relative kinetic rate constants for radical-radical coupling, and average lifetimes for the radicals have been calculated. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: N-[n-(4-cyanobiphenyl-4′-yloxy)alkyl]-7-oxanorbornene-5,6-exo-dicarboximide (CBON2-CBON8) with increasing number of methylene groups in the alkyl part (n = 2-8) were synthesized by Mitsunobu condensation between the appropriate alcohols (CBA2-CBA8) and 7-oxanorbornene-5,6-exo-dicarboximide (ON). The conditions for the ring opening metathesis polymerization of CBONn giving acceptable molecular weights and molecular distributions were established. Characterization of the resulting polymers (P2-P8) by 1H- and 13C-NMR has shown a high trans content. Differential scanning calorimetry and optical microscopy analysis have shown that the alcohols CBAn are thermotropic with some variations between the first and second heating-cooling cycles, the monomers CBONn melt with no evidence of any mesomorphic state, the polymers Pn show only the glass transition, and the glass transition temperature (Tg) decreases with increases in the spacer length. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: An alkali-soluble random copolymer (ASR), poly(styrene/α-methylstyrene/acrylic acid), was used as a polymeric emulsifier in the emulsion polymerization of styrene. The calorimetric technique was applied to study the kinetics of emulsion polymerization of styrene using ASR and a conventional ionic emulsifier, sodium dodecyl benzenesulfonate (SDBS). ASR could form aggregates like micelles, and the solubilization ability of the aggregates was dependent on the neutralization degree of ASR. The rate of polymerization in the ASR system was lower than that in the SDBS system. This result can be explained by the creation of a hairy ASR layer around the particle surface, which decreases the diffusion rate of free radicals through this region. Although a decrease in particle size was observed, the rate of polymerization decreased with increasing ASR concentration. The higher the concentration of ASR is, the thicker and denser ASR layer may be, and the more difficult it would therefore be for radicals to reach the particle through this layer of ASR. The rate of polymerization decreased with increasing the neutralization degree of ASR. The aggregates with high neutralization of ASR are less efficient in solubilizing the monomer and capturing initiator radicals than that of the lower neutralization degree, which leads to decrease in rate of polymerization. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Cationic polymerization of 1,3-dioxepane (DOP) initiated by triflic acid was carried out in the presence of 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)butanol (BHMB). The structure and molecular weight of the products were characterized by GPC and NMR spectra. The results showed that molecular weight of the polyacetal obtained could be controlled by the initial mole ratio of DOP/BHMB. GPC showed that as the mole ratio of BHMB/DOP increased, the content of cyclic oligomers also increased. Proton, 13C and 2D HMQC-fg NMR demonstrated that no hydroxymethyl group of BHMB appeared as an end group. It was also illustrated by proton NMR that some BHMB units existed in cyclic oligomers. The mechanism of formation of cyclic oligomers was discussed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 2899-2903, 1998

    Notes: A series of polychloroalkanes, known as telogen agents for redox telomerization, were used as initiators for atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of styrene using the heterogeneous CuCl/2,2′-bipyridine catalyst. In copper-catalyzed redox telomerization, the reactivity of RCCl3-type telogens is strongly influenced by the nature of the R group. In ATRP, the 2,2′-bipyridine ligand levels the activity of the catalytic system in such a way that all 1,1,1-trichloroalkanes are efficient initiators in ATRP, whatever the R group. The nature of this substituent influences the overall rate of polymerization through both the number of active sites per chain and the [Cu (I)]/[Cu (II)] ratio. By the combining of several analytical techniques, it is proved that some polychloroalkanes such as CCl3CO2CH3, CCl3CF3, or CCl4 are bifunctional initiators. Finally, a general mechanism of initiation is proposed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 2933-2947, 1998

    Notes: D-Lactose-O-(vinylbenzyl)oxime (LVO), prepared from α-D-lactose and [O-(vinylbenzyl)oxy]amine (1) was copolymerized with styrene (ST) in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO)-toluene (1 : 1, v/v) at 65°C using 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as a free radical initiator. The polymerization was rapid when using AIBN as the initiator. The resultant copolymers were characterized by elemental analyses, infrared, viscometry, TGA, DSC, and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The poly(ST-co-LVO) had an intrinsic viscosity in the range of 0.11-0.51 dL/g in DMSO at 30°C. The molecular weight was determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC), and the molecular weight of the resulting polymers ranged from 2.11 × 104 to 6.53 × 107 with low polydispersities. The solubility of the copolymers with different monomer compositions in solvents of varied polarities was also studied. Incorporation of up to 65% (mol %) of lactose-based monomer onto polystyrene backbone led to a water-soluble polymer. Thermal behavior of the synthesized copolymers was evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and correlated very well with the polymer composition. Introduction of a pendant disaccharide compromised the thermal stability of the copolymer. The synthetic approach described in this report provides a route to prepare a novel disaccharide surfactant polymer with well-defined structures and hydrophilic/hydrophobic balances, by adjusting feed ratio of the lactose-based monomer (1) to styrene. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The water-soluble conducting copolymer of poly(aniline-co-o-aminobenzenesulfonic acid) (PAOABSA) was synthesized directly from aniline and o-aminobenzenesulfonic acid and characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR, UV-Vis, X-ray powder diffraction, and XPS. The room-temperature conductivity of the copolymer can be changed by controlling the molar fraction of the starting materials, and its maximum conductivity at room temperature can reach 3.4 S/cm, which is comparable with polyaniline (PANI) synthesized by the standard method and sulfonated polyaniline (SPAN) having a high degree of sulfonation reported by Wei et al. It was found that the roomtemperature conductivity of the copolymer decreases with increase of the degree of sulfonation because of the introduction of the —SO-3 group reducing the conjugation of the polymer chain. On the other hand, its solubility in 1.0M NaOH solution increases with increase of the degree of sulfonation due to the —SO-3 group linking directly on the phenyl rings of the polymer chain. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Ablation characteristics of silicone insulation were examined in an induced air combustion chamber and by thermogravimetric analysis. The rate of ablation increased with the combustion pressure. Although the flame temperature was less effective in increasing the ablation rate, the ablation rate below 1160 K was much smaller than expected. The decomposition kinetics of the silicone insulation was significantly altered at this temperature range. The stability of the char layer was much higher below approximately 1000 K. Since the lower ablation rate was obtained in higher mass flow rate condition, the heat input from the boundary layer to the insulation surface was decreased at this condition. The expended insulation consisted of a virgin zone, reaction zone, and char layer. These degraded materials were generated at relatively narrow temperature ranges. The char layer maintained a silicone backbone structure even though it experienced severe conditions. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 233-239, 1998

    Notes: This study reports that stereospecific polymerization of aromatic acetylenes, e.g., p-methoxyphenylacetylene (pMOPA) and p-ethoxyphenylacetylene (pEOPA)was successfully performed to give polyacetylene selectively bearing cis-transoid forms in high yield when a Rh complex catalyst, [Rh(norbornadiene)Cl]2 was used in the presence of triethylamine as the polymerization solvent together with a detailed characterization of the resulting polymers, before and after compression. Compression of these polymers induced a cis-trans isomerization at room temperature under vacuum even in the solid state. Based on data collected before and after compression it is estimated that the trans conjugated length, (C=C)n, produced as a result of the compression is n = 26 for PpMOPA and n = 40 for PpEOPA polymers, respectively. We further found that g values in the ESR spectra of the pristine polymer were shifted to higher magnetic field by compression, indicating that unpaired electrons called solitons are stabilized in the trans conjugation length as mobile electrons, although in the pristine polymers the unpaired electrons are stabilized in the less conjugated chain, showing large g value, suggesting a magnetic interaction between oxygen in the alkoxy group of phenyl moiety and unpaired electrons in the cis form. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The principle of the electron photoejection technique is explained. This approach leads to the formation of transient spectra of unstable intermediates, allowing their recording and providing their extinction coefficients. Moreover, it permits determination of their electron affinities and the rates of their reactions, whether spontaneous or with some added substrates. Application of this technique to studies of disproportionation of radical anions has been most profitable. It led to the determination of the forward and backward rate constants of disproportionation of a variety of radical anions, and to discovery and quantification of some subtle features of these reactions. The electron photoejection technique provided the data characterizing the electron transfer initiation of anionic polymerization and clarified some of its features. Other opportunities provided by the electron photoejection in studies of electron transfer processes are suggested. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: v-xiii, 1998

The analysis of resulting copolymers by CFC (cross fractionation chromatography) indicated the formation of a small quantity of ethene-rich copolymers as a byproduct, suggesting that the catalyst possesses not only Ti(III) species but a small portion of Ti(II) species. Whereas, the same catalyst without being modified by an external donor selectively yielded propene-rich random copolymers resulting from Ti(III) species in high yields. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) is a very useful monomer as it bears an epoxy group which is capable of reacting with various other functional groups. However, its melt free radical grafting reactivity onto a polymer backbone is low. In this study, we show that the use of styrene (St) as a comonomer greatly promotes both GMA's grafting yield and grafting rate onto polyethylene (PE). It is proposed that, in the presence of St, the dominant mechanism of the free radical grafting of GMA onto PE is that St reacts first with PE secondary macroradicals and the resulting styryl macroradicals then copolymerize with GMA leading to grafted GMA. We also show that the contribution of St is not related to an improved solubility of GMA in the molten PE. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 2763-2774, 1998

    Notes: For revealing diethylene glycol (DEG) formation in poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) synthesis, this research focused on finding the stage most critical for DEG formation. It is found that the esterification stage was the most critical stage for DEG formation during production of PET through the direct esterification process. In addition, the kinetics of the formation of DEG (ether bond), which is mainly produced from hydroxyl end groups of ethylene glycol (EG) and bis-hydroxyethyl terephthalate (BHET) oligomer, was investigated. The results show that the reactivity of BHET-OH functional group is greater than that of EG-OH functional group in the reaction to produce ether bonds. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The metathesis polymerization of 1- and 2-ethynylanthracenes (1-EA and 2-EA) and 2- and 3-ethynylphenanthrenes (2-EP and 3-EP) in the presence of various WCl6-based catalysts produced widely conjugated soluble polymers with relatively high molecular weights. The highest weight-average molecular weights of poly(1-EA) and poly(2-EA) reached 61,000 and 26,000, respectively, when Ph4Sn was used as cocatalyst, while those of poly(2-EP) and poly(3-EP) reached 23,000 and 65,000, respectively, with Ph3Bi as cocatalyst. In contrast, MoCl5-based catalysts were hardly or not effective for these monomers. A large red-shifted peak was observed centering at 570 nm (the cutoff at 750 nm) in the absorption spectrum of poly(1-EA), while the red-shifted peaks were seen around 500 nm (the cutoffs near 700 nm) in the spectra of other polymers, indicating wide conjugations of the polymer chains. The configurational structures of all the polymers confirmed by DSC and 1H-NMR were trans structures. However, poly(1-EA) and poly(3-EP) appeared to consist partly of cis structures in their main chains. All of the present polymers showed relatively high thermal stability in air compared with poly(phenylacetylene). © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 3131-3137, 1998

    Notes: The molecular weight and its distribution of the resulting polymers were investigated during the crystalline-state photopolymerization of diethyl cis,cis-muconate (EMU). EMU crystals were prepared by several methods, recrystallization, milling, freeze drying, and precipitation, to obtain the crystals with various sizes of 10-6 to 10-2 m. After crystalline-state photopolymerization via a crystal-to-crystal process, polymer crystals were isolated and characterized by optical microphotography and scanning electron micrography. Molecular weight and its distribution were determined by gel permeation chromatography with 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol and by intrinsic viscosity in trifluoroacetic acid. It was revealed that the size of the EMU crystals depended on the method used for the crystal preparation, and that the molecular weight of the polymer decreased as the crystal size became small. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: {[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]cyclopentadienyl}titanium trichloride (CpNTiCl3, 1) was activated with methylaluminoxane (MAO) to catalyze polymerizations of ethylene (E), propylene (P), ethylidene norbornene (ENB), vinylcyclohexene (VCH), and 1,4-hexadiene (HD). The dependence of homopolymerization activity (A) of 1/MAO on olefin concentration ([M]n) is n = 2.0 ± 0.5 for E and n = 1.8 ± 0.2 for P. The value of n is 2.4 ± 0.2 for CpTiCl3/MAO catalysis of ethylene polymerization; this system does not polymerize propylene. 1/MAO catalyzes HD polymerization at one-tenth of AH for 1-hexene, probably because of chelation effects in the HD case. The copolymerization of E and P has reactivity ratios of rE = 6.4 and rP = 0.29 at 20°C, and rErP = 1.9, which suggests 1/MAO may be a multisite catalyst. The copolymerization activity of CpTiCl3/MAO is 50 times smaller than that of CpNTiCl3/MAO. Terpolymerization of E/P/ENB has A of 105 g of polymer/(mol of Ti h), incorporates up to 14 mol % (∼ 40 wt %) of ENB, and high MW's of 1 to 3 × 105. All of these parameters are surprisingly insensitive to the ENB concentration. The E/P/VCH terpolymerization has comparable A value of (1.3 ± 0.3) × 105 g/(mol of Ti h). The incorporation of VCH in terpolymer increases with increasing [VCH]. Terpolymerization with HD occurs at about one-third of the A of either ENB or VCH; the product HD-EPDM is low in molecular weight and contains less than 4% of HD. These terpolymerization results are compared with those obtained previously for three zirconocene precursors: rac-ethylenebis(1-η5-indenyl)dichlorozirconium (6), rac-(dimethylsilylene)bis(1-η5-indenyl)dichlorozirconium (7), and ethylenebis(9-η5-fluorenyl)dichlorozirconium (8). The last compound is a particularly poor terpolymerization catalyst; it incorporates very little VCH or HD and no ENB at all. 7/MAO is a better catalyst for E/P/VCH terpolymerization, while 6/MAO is superior in E/P/HD terpolymerization. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The surfaces of ozone-pretreated polycarbonate films were subjected to further modification by thermally induced graft copolymerization with acrylic acid (AAc), sodium salt of styrene sulfonic acid (NaSS), N,N-dimethylacrylamide (DMAA), N,N-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) and 3-dimethyl(methacryloyl ethyl)-ammonium propanesulfonate (DMAPS) monomers. The structure and composition at the copolymer interface were studied by angle-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). For polycarbonate films with a substantial amount of grafted polymer, the hydrophilic graft penetrates or becomes partially submerged beneath a thin surface layer of dense substrate chains. This microstructure was further supported by the water contact angle measurements. Adhesive-free adhesion studies revealed that the AAc, DMAA or DMAPS graft copolymerized polycarbonate film surface adhered strongly to another similarly modified surface (homo-interface) when brought into direct contact in the presence of water and subsequently dried. The development of the lap shear strength is dependent on the concentration of the surface graft, the microstructure of the grafted surface, the adhesion (drying) time, and the nature of the interfacial interaction. The simultaneous presence of chain entanglement and electrostatic interaction readily results in substantially enhanced adhesion strengths between two DMAPS graft copolymerized surfaces or between an AAc and a DMAA graft copolymerized surface (hetero-interface). XPS analyses of the delaminated surfaces suggest that failure occurred cohesively below the graft-substrate interface. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 357-366, 1998

    Notes: The process of formation of reticular copolymer molecular structures produced in free radical copolymerization of divinyl monomers (divinyl ethers of diethylene glycol and hydroquinone, divinyl sulfide, p-divinylbenzene, etc.) with maleic and fumaric acid derivatives is studied. The basic factor that determines the features of molecular and network structures of copolymers is reactivity of the divinyl monomer in copolymerization with monovinyl monomer. The network of copolymers of maleic anhydride with the divinyl ether of hydroquinone is formed out of oligomer microgels. Divinyl sulfide in copolymerization with maleic acid is disposed to cyclocopolymerization; also crosslinking reactions occur. Formation of a network structure of copolymers of divinylbenzene with maleic and fumaric acid derivatives is shown to proceed via an alternating copolymerization mechanism. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Aliphatic diols and dicarboxylic acids condense in hydrophobic solvents to form polyesters at 25-75°C when the solutions interface with an acidic hydrophilic phase. Certain aliphatic ω-hydroxy acids behave similarly. Rigorous removal of the by-produced water by distillation is unnecessary and examples are cited where polyesters are isolated in 85-90% yields having number-average molecular weights between 10,000-35,000. Polydispersity indices tend in many cases to be lower than expected for statistical step-growth polymerizations. Many of the side reactions encountered in high temperature polyesterifications, depending on the nature of the acidic phase, are absent or suppressed. While there are some limitations on the type of monomer, the mild conditions offer the possibility of forming polyesters with temperature sensitive structures directly from the corresponding carboxylic acids and carbinols. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The reaction of 1,2 ethanedithiol (EDT) with selenous acid in water or alcohol leads to selenopolysulfide chains or cycles, (C2H4SSeSC2H4SS)n, with randomly distributed —SSeS— and —SS— moieties. The reaction in water produces incompletely reacted material, which on recrystallization, gives an oligomer corresponding to 5 EDT units (pentamer) as confirmed by molecular mass determination, Se analysis, 1H- and 77Se-NMR spectroscopy. In both the pentamer and cyclic forms the incidence of neighboring —SSeS— moieties is higher than that expected statistically. The mechanism for the reaction of thiols with selenous acid provides some rationalization for this observation in as much as neighboring —SSeS— groups, or groups that will lead rapidly to neighboring —SSeS— groups are formed in general before —SS— links can be formed. The Raman spectrum of these products show typical strong SS, SeS, and CS stretching bands at 510, 370, and 730 cm-1. The high frequency of νCS is attributed to a preferred gauche conformation at the CS bonds. For comparison, polydisulfides were also prepared from EDT and iodine in methanol. These products consist of at least seven cyclic polymers ranging from the four-membered 1,2-dithietane to higher members. Heating above 100°C in chloroform for several hours gives a solution containing the four lowest molecular mass rings, which on standing for 24 h, precipitate highly insoluble material, which is probably chain or large-ring polymer. Molecular mass determination in camphor indicates that, like yellow sulphur, chain polymers are formed at the melting point of camphor (170°C). © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Crosslinkable interpolymer complexes of novolac resin and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) were prepared by mutual mixing ethanol solutions of novolac and PEO. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) studies revealed that the driving force for the formation of novolac/PEO complex is hydrogen bonding interaction between the hydroxyl groups of novolac and the ether oxygens of PEO. The morphology and thermal properties of the complexes before and after curing were investigated by optical microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). It was found that the uncured novolac/PEO complexes had a single composition-dependent glass transition temperature (Tg). The curing with 15 wt % hexamine (HMTA) (relative to novolac content) resulted in disappearing of Tg behaviour for both the neat novolac and the novolac-rich complexes, owing to less mobility of the novolac chain segments. The melting temperature (Tm) and crystallization rate of the HMTA-cured novolac/PEO complexes decreased with increasing novolac content, and no Tm was observed for the cured complexes with PEO content less than 50%. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A series of multiarm star-branched polyisobutylenes was synthesized from narrow polydispersity arms with molecular weights ranging from 12,000 to 60,000 g/mol, via living carbocationic polymerization using the cumyl chloride/TiCl4/pyridine initiating system and divinylbenzene (DVB) as core-forming comonomer. The effect on star development of arm molecular weight, temperature, solvent composition, and DVB concentration was studied. The rate of star formation and the weight-average number of arms per star polymer, N̄w, were found to scale inversely with arm molecular weight; N̄w = 60 was attained for 13,100 g/mol arms, but N̄w = 2.5 for 60,000 g/mol arms. It was established that star formation was much faster at -80°C compared to 23°C, regardless of solvent composition. For hexane : methyl chloride (MeCl) solvent compositions containing from 40 to 60 vol % MeCl, star-star coupling was observed at -80°C, but not at 23°C, even after 312 h; for the most polar 40 : 60 hexane : MeCl composition, star-star coupling was so extensive at -80°C that gelation was observed after only 44 h. The rate of star formation was found to be substantially higher in 60 : 40 hexane : MeCl compared to 60 : 40 hexane : methylene chloride (MeCl2). Some reactions containing MeCl were immediately warmed to 23°C after DVB addition, and the MeCl thus volatilized was replaced with either MeCl2 or hexane for the duration of the star-forming reaction. Slightly higher rates were consistently observed when MeCl2 was the replacement solvent. The strong influence of initial MeCl content on rate of star formation was found to persist throughout the star-forming reaction, even when the solvent was immediately converted to 100% hexane. The fraction of arms that remained unlinked into stars was found to be higher at the higher temperature and at lower solvent polarity. Regardless of solvent or temperature, the residual arm fraction was approximately the same at a given stage of star development as measured by the average number of arms per star. One star sample was produced with the UV-transparent 2-chloro-2,4,4-trimethylpentane initiator; analysis showed that the residual arm fraction had approximately the same UV absorbance as the star fraction, indicating efficient crossover to DVB and the potential for approximately quantitative arm incorporation given sufficient time. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A series of new high molecular weight poly(arylene ether)s containing the 1,2-dihydro-4-phenyl(2H)phthalazinone moiety have been synthesized. The inherent viscosities of these polymers are in the range of 0.33-0.64 dL/g. They are amorphous and readily soluble in chloroform, DMF, and DMAc. The glass transition temperatures of the polymers range from 241 to 320°C and the 5% weight loss temperatures in nitrogen atmosphere range from 473 to 517°C. The hydroxy group in the monomer 1,2-dihydro-4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)(2H)phthalazin-1-one has been selectively transformed into the N,N′-dimethylthiocarbamate group, which was then rearranged to give the S-(N,N′-dimethylcarbamate) group via the Newman-Kwart rearrangement reaction. A series of poly(arylene thioether)s containing the 1,2-dihydro-4-phenyl(2H)phthalazinone moiety have also been synthesized via two types of reactions, a N—C coupling reaction and a one-pot reaction between the S-(N,N′-dimethylcarbamate) and activated dihalo compounds, in diphenyl sulfone in the presence of a cesium carbonate and calcium carbonate mixture. These poly(arylene thioether)s also have high glass transition temperatures (ranging from 217-303°C) and high thermal stabilities. Compared with their poly(ether) analogs, the poly(arylene thioether)s have glass transition temperatures several degrees lower, which is attributed to the more flexible C—S—C bonds. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: New classes of copolymers, poly[oxy(chloromethyl)ethylene]/poly[oxy-((alkylthio)methyl)ethylene] copolymers (CE-ATEs), poly[oxy((alkylthio)methyl)-ethylene]s (ATEs), poly[oxy(chloromethyl)ethylene]/poly[oxy((alkylsulfonyl)meth-yl)ethylene] copolymers (CE-ASEs), and poly[oxy((alkylsulfonyl)methyl)ethylene]s (ASEs) have been made for the first time. The thioether-containing polymers (CE-ATEs and ATEs) were synthesized by reacting poly[oxy(chloromethyl)ethylene] (CE, poly(epichlorohydrin)) with different amounts of sodium alkanethiolates. The sulfone-containing polymers (CE-ASEs and ASEs) were synthesized by oxidizing the CE-ATEs and ATEs using m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid. The Fox equation, a linear relationship, fit the Tg/composition data for most CE-ATEs. The Tg's of the CE-ASEs showed positive deviations from those calculated using the Fox equation. The Johnston equation, in which steric and/or polar interactions between dissimilar monomeric units are considered by using TgAB (the Tg of the AB or BA dyad), fit the Tg/composition data for all copolymers in this study. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
