    Notes: Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy has been used to study the isothermal relaxation response of compression molded bisphenol-A polycarbonate at temperatures of 263, 273, and 303 K. The temperature dependence of both the lifetime and intensity of the ortho-Positronium (o-Ps) pickoff component is discussed in terms of ductile-to-brittle transition behavior and free volume theory. An additive exponential model and the Williams-Watt model were used to analyze the relaxation as a function of temperature and provided results consistent with the anticipated molecular mobility of polycarbonate at sub-Tg temperatures.

    Notes: A free volume probing technique, positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) is used to characterize miscible blends of amorphous polycarbonate with a semicrystalline copolyester at room temperature. The paper describes the analysis required to use the PALS technique to probe the amorphous regions in which the miscibility of the blends occurs. Analysis of the raw PALS data in this system involves taking account of the influence of crystallinity on the PALS results. The results demonstrate that the PALS technique is able to discriminate between free volume in the amorphous regions of as-molded and annealed samples. This difference in free volume between samples of differing thermal history is assigned to the influence of polymer crystals on the stress state of the miscible amorphous regions. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Gel electrophoresis has been a powerful technique for the separation of peptides and proteins for many years. After electrophoresis separation on a polyacrylamide gel, the peptide bradykinin was localized using Coomassie Blue as a staining dye. Excess dye was removed by washing the gel with water, For mass spectrometric analysis, bands containing the peptide were crushed, extracted with acetic acid and the eluent applied to the fast-atom bombardment probe. Under these conditions the protonated molecule of bradykinin was clearly observed. Also apparent were sequence ions at about the same intensity observed from authentic bradykinin.

    Notes: Homopolymers and blends of polycarbonate/ThermX have been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, dynamic mechanical analysis, density measurements, and positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy. The study focuses on the chain mobility and free volume in the amorphous miscible regions of the blends and how this mobility and free volume are affected by increasing crystallinity. It is proposed that judicious annealing, which results in increasing crystallinity (while avoiding ageing or transesterification), induces a constraint on the amorphous region leading to an increase in Tg and coalescence of free volume sites. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The effects of physical aging below the glass transition temperature on selected properties of polycarbonate have been studied. Changes in tensile yield strength, post yield stress drop, and fracture toughness as a result of annealing at 120°C for 240 h have been measured and are related to changes in free volume as measured by positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy. The free volume concentration remains constant during the aging heat treatment at 120°C but decreases after cooling due to aging. The relationship between free volume changes and physical property changes is discussed in terms of molecular conformations and fracture mode. The effect of aging on fracture morphology is presented to aid interpretations of fracture mode.

    Notes: Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS), capable of probing free volume, is used to study the effect of compatibilizer concentration, compatibilizer type, and the effect of blend processing on the morphology and properties of an immiscible linear low-density polyethylene/polypropylene system. It is proposed that improvement of fracture toughness due to compatibilization can be attributed to the packing (and bonding) at interfaces. Improved interfacial packing and bonding result in lower free volume concentration than expected from component additivity, with a concomitant increase in plastic deformation on impact.

    Notes: The positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) technique is used to measure volume relaxation in physically aged glassy polycarbonate. The relaxation times and activation energy calculated for the isothermal relaxations in the aged polycarbonate are greater than those parameters calculated for unaged polycarbonate. The activation energy of 8.2 kcal/mol in the aged polycarbonate is used to identify the phenyl group motion or the cooperative carbonate-phenyl interaction as the molecular features responsible for the thermally induced open volume relaxations. It is postulated that the open volume relaxation kinetics as measured by PALS can be used as a nondestructive indication of property differences between aged and unaged polycarbonate.
