    Notes: Clustering behavior of water molecules during adsorption of water in wood was studied using the Zimm-Lundberg theory. The average cluster size of water molecules was determined with the help of wood adsorption isotherms at five temperatures. The effects of both relative humidity and temperature on average cluster size were studied. Average cluster size progressively increased with an increase in humidity. At humidities corresponding to fiber saturation, larger clusters were formed. Cluster size increased sharply with an increase in temperature at humidities close to saturation. Formation of large clusters at high temperature and humidities close to saturation is attributed to increased fraction of weakly bonded water and capillary condensation in such conditions. A description of adsorption of water in wood was provided in terms of average cluster size. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 665-671, 1998

    Notes: Nylon 6 9 has been shown to have structures with interchain hydrogen bonds in both two and in three directions. Chain-folded lamellar crystals were studied using transmission electron microscopy and sedimented crystal mats and uniaxially oriented fibers studied by X-ray diffraction. The principal room-temperature structure shows the two characteristic (interchain) diffraction signals at spacings of 0.43 and 0.38 nm, typical of α-phase nylons; however, nylon 6 9 is unable to form the α-phase hydrogen-bonded sheets without serious distortion of the all-trans polymeric backbone. Our structure has c and c* noncoincident and two directions of hydrogen bonding. Optimum hydrogen bonding can only occur if consecutive pairs of amide units alternate between two crystallographic planes. The salient features of our model offer a possible universal solution for the crystalline state of all odd-even nylons. The nylon 6 9 room-temperature structure has a C-centered monoclinic unit cell (β = 108°) with the hydrogen bonds along the C-face diagonals; this structure bears a similarity to that recently proposed for nylons 6 5 and X3. On heating nylon 6 9 lamellar crystals and fibers, the two characteristic diffraction signals converge and meet at 0.42 nm at the Brill temperature, TB · TB for nylon 6 9 lamellar crystals is slightly below the melting point (Tm), whereas TB for nylon 6 9 fibers is ≅ 100°C below Tm. Above TB, nylon 6 9 has a hexagonal unit cell; the alkane segments exist in a mobile phase and equivalent hydrogen bonds populate the three principal (hexagonal) directions. A structure with perturbed hexagonal symmetry, which bears a resemblance to the reported γ-phase for nylons, can be obtained by quenching from the crystalline growth phase (above TB) to room temperature. We propose that this structure is a “quenched-in” perturbed form of the nylon 6 9 high-temperature hexagonal phase and has interchain hydrogen bonds in all three principal crystallographic directions. In this respect it differs importantly from the γ-phase models. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 1153-1165, 1998

    Notes: Random copolymers of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalate) (PEN) were synthesized by melt condensation. In a series of thin, solvent cast films of varying PEN content, acetone diffusivity and solubility were determined at 35°C and an acetone pressure of 5.4 cm Hg. The kinetics of acetone sorption in the copolymer films are well described by a Fickian model. Both solubility and diffusivity decrease with increasing PEN content. The acetone diffusion coefficient decreases 93% from PET to PET/85PEN, a copolymer in which 85 weight percent of the dimethyl terephthalate in PET has been replace by dimethyl naphthalate 2,6-dicarboxylate. The acetone solubility coefficient in the amorphous regions of the polymer decreases by approximately a factor of two over the same composition range. The glass/rubber transition temperatures of these materials rise monotonically with increasing PEN content. Copolymers containing 20 to 80 wt % PEN are amorphous. Samples with 〈20% or 〉80% PEN contain measurable levels of crystallinity. Estimated fractional free volume in the amorphous regions of these samples is lower in the copolymers than in either of the homopolymers. Relative free volume as probed by positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) decreases systematically with increasing PEN content. Acetone diffusion coefficients correlate well with PALS results. Infrared spectroscopy suggests an increase in the fraction of ethylene glycol units in the trans conformation in the amorphous phase as the concentration of PEN in the copolymer increases. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Monomeric friction factors, Ξ, for polystyrene (PS), polyisoprene (PI), and a polystyrene-polyisoprene (SI) diblock copolymer have been determined as a function of temperature in four poly(styrene-b-isoprene-b-styrene-b-isoprene) tetrablock copolymer matrices. The Rouse model has been used to calculate the friction factors from tracer diffusion coefficients measured by forced Rayleigh scattering. Within the experimental temperature range the tetrablock copolymers are disordered, allowing for measurement of the diffusion coefficient in matrices with average compositions determined by the tetrablock copolymers (23, 42, 60, and 80% styrene by volume). Remarkably, for a given matrix composition the styrene and isoprene friction factors are essentially equivalent. Furthermore, at a constant interval from the system glass transition temperature, Tg, all of the friction factors (obtained from homopolymer, diblock copolymer, and tetrablock copolymer dynamics) agree to within an order of magnitude. This is in marked contrast to results for miscible polymer blends, where the individual components generally have distinct composition dependences and magnitudes at constant T - Tg. The homopolymer friction factors in the tetrablock matrices were systematically slightly higher than those of the diblock, which in turn were slightly higher than those of the homopolymers in their respective melts, when all compared at constant T - Tg. This is attributed to the local spatial distribution of styrene and isoprene segments in the tetrablocks, which presents a nonuniform free energy surface to the tracer molecules. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: We studied translational diffusion of dilute monodisperse spheres (diameters 14 〈 d 〈 455 nm) in aqueous 1 MDa hydroxypropylcellulose (0 ≤ c ≤ 7 g/L) at 25°C using quasielastic light scattering. Spectra are highly bimodal. The two spectral modes (“slow,” “fast”) have different physical properties. Probe behavior differs between small (d 〈 Rh) and large (d ≥ Rg) probes; Rh and Rg are the matrix polymer hydrodynamic radius and the radius of gyration, respectively. We examined the dependences of spectral lineshape parameters on d, c, scattering vector q, and viscosity η for all four probe-size and mode-type combinations. We find three time scale-separated modes: (1) a large-probe slow mode has properties characteristic of particle motion in a viscous medium; (2) a large-probe fast mode and small-probe slow modes share the same time scale, and have properties characteristic of probe motion coupled to internal chain dynamics; and (3) a small-probe fast mode has properties that can be attributed to the probe sampling local chain relaxations. In the analysis, we also attempted to apply the coupling/scaling (CS) model of Ngai and Phillies [Ngai, K. L., Phillies, G. D. J. J. Chem. Phys., 105, 8385 (1996)] to analyze our data. We find that the second mode is described by the coupling/scaling model for probe diffusion; the first and third modes do not follow the predictions of this model. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Calorimetry and dielectric relaxation spectroscopy during the growth of a polymer network in the stoichiometric mixture of a triepoxide with 4-chloroaniline have been performed in separate experiments to investigate the increase in the relaxation time with the number of covalent bonds. A comparison with the corresponding study of triepoxide-aniline and triepoxide-3-chloroaniline mixtures shows that steric hindrance of the amine group by chlorine slows the molecular dynamics and the relaxation time of the state containing a fixed number of bonds. The polymerization kinetics measured during ramp heating does not yield a reliable activation energy. A recent empirical relation between the relaxation time and the extent of polymerization, and the condition for the onset of diffusion-control kinetics have been examined using the data for these three polymerizing mixtures. The results show substantial deviations from the empirical relation and appear to conflict with our basic understanding of the polymerization process. It is shown mathematically that features attributed to the onset of diffusion-controlled kinetics can arise from thermochemical behavior alone, without reference to the molecular dynamics. An earlier theory for the change in the kinetics of an addition reaction from mass control to diffusion control has been considered, and is seen as relevant to the polymerization reactions. It is argued that the dielectric relaxation rate does not directly indicate the chemical reaction rate because the reorientational motion of the dipolar entities may not be coupled to the rotational and translational diffusion that brings the sterically hindered chemically reacting sites together. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Crystallization of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) from homogeneous solution in supercritical propane yields open-cell foams of high surface area (120-150 m2/g). Their morphology usually consists of microspheres with a dense core and a porous periphery of radiating fibrils. Pore radii covering the mesopore range (2-50 nm), making their largest contribution at 10-20 nm, were calculated from nitrogen adsorption isotherms. Surface areas of the correct order of magnitude are obtained by assuming that gas adsorption takes place on the surfaces of lamellar crystals. Crystallization of iPP from n-butane and n-heptane generates foams of lower mesoporosity and smaller surface area. These more “liquid-like” solvents do not allow the formation of an open network of mesopores or they promote its collapse upon their removal. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The polarized or depolarized light scattering by well-defined monodispersed sphere doublets is investigated. Two configurations of doublets are studied. In the first (at rest) the doublets are randomly oriented in a plane, in the second the doublets are oriented in a preferred direction. This is achieved by submitting a suspension of doublets to a shear flow. The scattering patterns are compared to two theoretical predictions based on simplified geometries. In the first approach, the doublet is approximated by two interpenetrating spheres scattering independently, whereas in the second, an ellipsoid geometry is used. A good qualitative comparison is obtained. However, the HV and VH patterns of a randomly dispersed suspension are not similar. The observation of the flow of a doublet suspension in shear shows that the doublets are spiraling around the vorticity axis. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A study of gas transport properties of novel polynorbornenes with increasing length of an aliphatic pendant group R (CH3—, CH3(CH2)3—, CH3(CH2)5—, CH3(CH2)9—) has been performed. These polymers were synthesized using novel organometallic complex catalysts via an addition polymerization route. This reaction route maintained the bridged norbornene ring structure in the final polymer backbone. Gas permeability and glass transition temperature were found to be higher than those for polynorbornenes prepared by ring-opening metathesis and reported in the literature. It was shown that for noncondensable gases such as H2 and He the selectivity over N2 decreased when the length of the pendant group increased, but remained relatively stable for the more condensable gases (O2 and CO2). The permeability coefficient is correlated well to the inverse of the fractional free volume of the polymers. The more condensable gases showed a deviation from this correlation for the longest pendant group, probably due to an increase of the solubility effect. This polymer series demonstrated a simultaneous increase in permeability and selectivity, uncommon for polymers. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 797-803, 1998

    Notes: We report on the viscoelastic behavior of linear thermoplastic nonpolar hybrid inorganic-organic polymers. These materials have been synthesized through copolymerization of an oligomeric inorganic macromer with 4-methylstyrene where the inorganic portion of the material is a well-defined polyhedral oligosilsesquioxane (POSS), R7(Si8O12)(CH2CH2C6H4C=CH2), with R = c-C6H11 or c-C5H9. A series of 4-methyl styrene copolymers with approximately 4, 8, and 16 mol % POSS macromer incorporation were investigated. Rheological measurements show that the polymer dynamics are profoundly affected as the percent of POSS increases. In particular, a high-temperature rubbery plateau develops (where a terminal zone is not observed), despite the fact that the parent poly 4-methylstyrene is unentangled. It is also observed that the thermal properties are influenced as the percent of POSS incorporation increases, with increases in the glass and decomposition temperatures. The results suggest that interchain interactions between the massive inorganic groups are responsible for the retardation of polymer chain motion, a mechanism similar to the “sticky reptation” model conceived for hydrogen-bonded elastomers and developed by Leibler et al. [Macromolecules, 24, 4701 (1991)]. Control over the interchain interactions would also give rise to the observed increases in glass transition and the establishment of a rubbery plateau. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
