    Notes: Abstract Grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella Val.) were introduced into the United States in 1963 as potential biological control agents for nuisance aquatic weeds. Since that time an oftentimes bitter controversy has raged over its effects on sportfishing, and its possible natural reproduction and naturalization in North America. This review considers the history, ecology, and present status of grass carp in the United States in light of the voluminous scientific research conducted since its importation. Particular attention is given to the role of grass carp in the fisheries management plans of Arkansas. Recent development of a sterile, triploid grass carp hybrid may lead to widespread use of grass carp to control nuisance aquatic weeds in culturally eutrophicated waters of the United States.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Synopsis Sixteen yearling winter flounder, tested individually for 3-day periods in electronic shuttleboxes, voluntarily occupied an 8–27°C range of temperature, with a modal final thermal preferendum of 18.5°C (mean 18.7°C, median 19°C, midpoint 17.5°C, s.d. 1.9°C, S k + 0.33). The locomotor activity pattern of the yearling fish in the laboratory was markedly nocturnal, with mean hourly nocturnal activity exceeding mean hourly diurnal activity by a factor of 3.4. Maximum activity occurred at 0300 EST, minimum activity at 1400 EST. While activity generally increased with temperature, a local activity minimum occurred at 18.7°C, coinciding with the 24-hour mean final thermal preferendum. Comparison of these laboratory data with previously published field data suggest that behavioral responses to temperature and light play significant roles in determining age- and size-specific differences in seasonal depth stratification and onshore-offshore distributions in this species.

    Notes: The effect of small amounts of low molecular weight polypropylene oxide on the rheological properties of talc-filled polypropylene composites was studied experimentally using a capillary viscometer. The elastic behavior of the system was investigated by exit pressure and die swell methods. Initial studies showed that the talc filler does not influence the viscosity of the polypropylene but decreases the elasticity of the polymer system. Addition of oligomer concentration in a 40 wt percent talc-filled polypropylene not only decreases the viscosity but also further decreases considerably the elasticity of the filled polymer composite. In both cases about 3 wt percent oligomer cone entration appears to be optimal, and further addition of oligomer does not significantly influence the rheological characteristics of the talc-filled polypropylene composite.

    Notes: A large variety of permselective membranes were prepared by radiation grafting techniques. Grafting of styrene into poly-(tetrafluoroethylene) films followed by sulfonation led to strong anionic membranes showing good performance in reverse osmosis. Carboxylic membranes were prepared by grafting acrylic and methacrylic acids. Cationic membranes were obtained via grafting 4-vinylpyridine. These membranes were tested in various fractionation processes including reverse osmosis. N-vinylpyrrolidone grafts exhibited high selectivity for separating water from organic solvents by pervaporation. Bifunctional membranes containing both carboxylic and pyridine groups were obtained by two successive grafting steps either in bulk giving rise to “homogeneous” membranes with unusual swelling properties, or into localized areas generating mosaic membranes which exhibit negative osmosis and increased rates of ion-pair diffusion.

    Notes: The crystallization of flexible-chain molecules of different degrees of coiling is considered. The nature of the phase transition during crystallization is discussed. The revision of established notions on phase transitions in polymers leads to the concept of crystalline topomorphism, i.e., the existence of two crystalline types with different modes of packing of macromolecules in the macroscopic crystal though they belong to the same lattice class: folded-chain crystal (FCC) and extended-chain crystal (ECC). Phase diagrams in coordinates of degree of coiling vs temperature are plotted. The values of molecular orientation and temperatures at which each of both mechanisms of crystallization takes place are evaluated. The mechanisms of ECC growth under equilibrium conditions and under conditions of molecular orientation are discussed. It is shown that the melting of ECC obtained by the process of orientational crystallization is a second order phase transition, being analogous to a crystal-nematic phase transition. At the same time the melting of FCC provides all the features of a first order transition.

    Notes: The concepts of Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM) are applied to polypropylene, a homopolymer and two copolymers, with a view to characterizing their brittle behavior at slow rates (0.5 cm/min) in terms of a fracture toughness, KIc. The effect of thickness, notch sharpness, and the mode of loading on KIc have been investigated in order to determine the plane strain toughness values, KcI for the materials. The two types of material are compared in terms of their toughness values over a range of temperatures between +30 and -160°C. Evidently, the small amounts of ethylene added to the copolymers show plasticizing effects, suppressing the yield stress and the ductile-brittle transition temperature. In addition, the copolymers exhibit a ductile-brittle region between -100 and -45°C where notch strengthening is apparent in the tension mode and a slow crack growth region between -45 and -30°C where slow growth precedes unstable fracture. The homopolymer, however, shows no clear evidence of such intermediate regions, except for slight amounts of slow growth above 0°C, and becomes ductile around 30°C.

    Residual stresses and aging in injection molded polypropylene (1980)

    Notes: The residual stresses in injection molded bars of polypropylene have been examined using a stress relaxation method and by the layer removal technique. A positive value for the internal stress parameter was obtained with newly molded specimens and was found to be retained by specimens stored at liquid nitrogen temperature. The stress relaxation parameter reduced to zero both for specimens aged at room temperature and also for those aged at -40°C. Nevertheless the relaxation behavior of specimens aged at all three temperatures was quite distinct. The layer removal technique showed that the stresses near to the surface were compressive and those in the interior tensile, in apparent contradiction to the interpretation of Kubat and Rigdahl for the meaning of a positive internal stress parameter. A marked reduction in stress levels on aging at room temperature was confirmed, however. The relevance of the relaxation spectrum of polypropylene to these observations is discussed.

    Diffusion with discontinuous swelling. IV. Type II diffusion into spherical particles (1980)

    Notes: In the last few years some new features of the so-called type II diffusion have been established which confirm the first theoretical description of such a material transport into a semi-infinite glassy medium which at a certain concentration of the sorbate is transformed into a gel. The boundary between the glass and the gel progresses at a constant velocity into the interior of the sample thus yielding a linear term in the weight gain. The gradual establishment of the concentration profile in front of this boundary yields at the beginning a square root term in the weight gain. A detailed analysis of the extensive measurements of Hopfenberg, et al. of the diffusion of n-hexane into extremely small polystyrene spheres demonstrates that the weight gain always starts with a square root of time term. In sufficiently large spheres this contribution is soon completely overridden by the term linear in time. The spherical geometry substantially modifies the concentration profile and the weight gain. In particular the weight gain divided by the square root of time vs the square root of time shows a maximum as soon as the geometrical factors prevail over the effect of the constant velocity progression of the boundary between the glass and the gel.

    A study of crosslinking in polyimides by viscoelastic and diffusion techniques (1980)

    Notes: This paper is concerned with detecting crosslinking and changes in crosslink densities in cured polyimides. The methods used include diffusional weight gain and dynamic mechanical measurements on thin films of the cured polymers. In this study changes in diffusivities (D) for dimethylformamide (DMF) sorption into polyimide films as well as dynamic mechanical moduli and loss tangents are shown to be related to differences in polyimide cure schedule and composition. In all cases studied there is a β loss dispersion in the range 120 to 150°C and a γ loss dispersion in the range -50 to -80°C. The position and intensity of the β and γ relaxation processes vary primarily with cure cycle. There is a significant correlation between the magnitude of the diffusion coefficient and β and γ transition temperatures (Tβ and Tγ). Tβ increases and Tγ decreases with higher values of D so that T*, the difference Tβ - Tγ, is directly proportional to the diffusivity. By relating these results to data in the literature and the known curing behavior of polyimides, this trend is shown to be consistent with the presence of crosslinking and to be related to the crosslink density of the polymers. The data of this study indicate that measurements of diffusion coefficients for solvent sorption can be used to study changes in crosslink densities in glassy thermosetting polymers. Since the method is best suited for studying one dimensional diffusion, it also is suggested as a possibility for determining relative crosslink densities in adhesives bonded between substrates.
