    Notes: A high-temperature radical scavenger, 2,2-diphenyl-l-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH), has been used to study the reaction mechanisms of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) on thermal treatment. The effect of DPPH on the cyclization reaction of PAN in both air and nitrogen, investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), helped to verify the proposed reaction mechanisms, i.e., the free radical and the ionic ones. For PAN homopolymer, the peak temperature of the reaction exotherm shifted to higher temperatures and the heat of reaction was decreased with increasing DPPH concentration. For PAN copolymer with methylacrylate and itaconic acid, however, the effects of DPPH on DSC thermograms were insignificant. The effects of IPPH suggest that the reaction of the nitrile groups proceeds by free radicals for the homopolymer while by ions for the copolymer. The activation energies for the thermal reactions of PAN in both air and nitrogen were also estimated by the dynamic DSC method, and they proved to be highly dependent on reaction mechanism, environment of thermal treatment, and DPPH concentration.

    Notes: The temperature dependence of the nucleation effect of three sorbitol derivatives on the crystallization of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) was studied by means of isothermal crystallization kinetic analysis. Isothermal crystallization thermograms obtained by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were analyzed based on the Avrami equation. The Avrami analysis for the nucleated iPP was carried out with DSC data collected to 35% relative crystallinity, and the rate constants were corrected assuming the heterogeneous nucleation and three dimensional growth of iPP spherulites. A semi-empirical equation for the radial growth rate of iPP spherulites was given as a function of temperature and was used to determine the number of effective nuclei at different temperatures. The number of effective nuclei in the nucleated samples was estimated to be 3 × 102 ∽ 105 times larger than that in the neat iPP. The logarithmic numbers of the effective nuclei decreased linearly with decreasing degree of supercooling in the range of crystallization temperatures tested. The temperature dependence of the effect of the nucleating agents on iPP crystallization was given quantitatively in terms of the deactivation factor defined as a fraction of the particles that are active at a particular temperature but inert at the temperature one degree higher. The nucleation activity and its temperature dependence are considered to be cooperative effects of many factors, including the dispersion and the physical or chemical nature of the agent as well as the interaction between the agent and the polymer. It is suggested that the temperature dependence of the effect of a nucleating agent should be treated as a characteristic of a given polymer/ nucleating agent mixture.

    Notes: Polysulfone hollow fiber membranes were prepared via the dry-wet spinning process from dope solutions comprised of polysulfone, n-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, polyvinyl-2-pyrrolidone, and dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid, sodium salt. Morphology and performance of the membranes were affected by the compositions of coagulant and dope solution. Pore size and the water flux of the membrane increased by the addition of dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid, sodium salt to water in the coagulation bath, due to the changes of physicochemical properties of the outer coagulant. Addition of dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid, sodium salt to the dope solution also increased the pore size. The absence of polyvinyl-2-pyrrolidone, the pore forming agent, in the dope solution resulted in a remarkable decrease of pore size of the membrane. The distance between the spinneret and coagulation bath affected the membrane structure and performance. The membranes prepared in this study were suitable for hemofiltration in terms of molecular weight cut-off characteristics. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Ternary blends of PP (80) /rubber (EPM, EPDM) (10) / PE (10) and PP (80) / rubber (10) / CaCO3 (10) composites were prepared in a twin-screw extruder. With polyethylene (PE) viscosity comparable to, or higher than that of rubber, the dispersed phase formed a reticulate structure with reduced size. On the contrary, when the viscosity of PE was significantly lower than that of rubber, the dispersed phase formed almost homogeneous morphology. With reticulate morphology, PE crystallinity content, hardness, modulus, and elongation at break of the ternary blend increased. In polypropylene (PP) / rubber / CaCO3 composites, better dispersion of CaCO3 in the PP matrix was obtained when the viscosity of rubber was significantly higher than that of matrix. With better dispersion, hardness and tensile properties were improved, but the impact strength more or less decreased. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The ring-opening polymerization of L-lactide with stannous octoate was investigated in the presence of pentaerythritol. By this way it was possible to prepare higher molecular weight star-shaped poly(L-lactide)s compared with the linear ones obtained by stannous octoate only. The weight-average molecular weights of linear and star poly(L-lactide)s were measured by light scattering analysis from hexafluoro-2-propanol solution, and the respective Mark-Houwink equations were derived. The second virial coefficient and the intrinsic viscosity of the star polymers were lower than those of the linear ones, which confirms the star-shaped architecture.

    Notes: Cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) was found to be severely inhibited by cyclodextrins. In order to increase the conversion yield by reducing product inhibition and reuse the CGTase in the production of cyclodextrins from milled corn starch, an ultrafiltration membrane bioreactor system was employed. In a batch operation with ultrafiltration, the conversion yield was increased 57% compared with that without ultrafiltration. Operating conditions for the continuous production of cyclodextrins in the membrane bioreactor were optimized by taking into consideration the filtration rate and the conversion yield as follows: initial starch concentration, 7% (w/v); starch feeding rate, 240 mg/h; CGTase loading, 350 units/initial gram starch. When cyclodextrins were continuously produced in the membrane bioreactor under optimized conditions, 340 units of CGTase was require to produce 1 g of cyclodextrins for 48 h, while in the case of conventional batch operation, 1 g of cyclodextrins was produced for 24 h by 1410 units of CGTase. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The memory effect of shear history was studied with poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) prepared under different shear conditions of 11.7 to 1168 s-1 in a capillary rheometer. The shear history of PET resin led to a memory effect, which in turn affected the crystallization kinetics. The crystallization rate increased with increasing shear rate. Double peaks of heating crystallization exotherms and a low value of Avrami exponent appeared at low shear rates, which was attributed to the existence of crystallization processes with different rates; one was the fast process involving the disentangled molecules that persisted during melting, and the other was the slow process involving the highly entangled molecules. The change of instantanenous Avrami exponent and overall crystallization rate constant was in good agreement with the expected trends assuming coexistence of the two crystallization processes. The crystallization kinetics of PET with shear history could be regarded as a growth rate decrease problem to be interpreted by the modified Avrami equation, 1 - Vc = exp[- K·f(t)n], when the fast process dominated the overall crystallization. The effect of shear history was reduced because of the relaxation process as the holding time in melt state before crystallization was increased.

    Notes: Graft copolymer membranes from the methylcellulose and the acrylic acid were prepared and their properties and the permeability of four solutes were estimated. Acrylic acid-g-methylcellulose (AA-g-MC) copolymer dissolved in aqueous acetone solvent was cast to prepare membranes followed by the subsequent crosslinking either with aluminium potassium sulfate or by the thermal-curing method. The equilibrium water content in the membrane increased with the volume fraction of acetone in the aqueous acetone solvent system. Membrane, the ionically crosslinked with the aluminum potassium sulfate, showed the water content in the range of 38.5 and 58.4% and 0.25-0.33 kg/mm2 of the tensile strength in the wet state. Compared with ionically crosslinked membranes, thermally dried membranes exhibited a more dense structure, resulting in lower water contents and higher mechanical strength. Experimental results on the permeation of four small and midsize solutes through the graft copolymer membranes revealed the molecular weight dependence of the permeability coefficient. The higher the degree of swelling, the greater the permeability coefficient. Ionically crosslinked membranes had higher solute permeability than the commercial Cuprophane membrane had. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Mechanical and surface properties of injection-molded specimens for miscible and immiscible blends of ABS with PMMA were investigated. Regardless of miscibility, hardness, modulus, and strength of the blends generally showed a smooth variation with composition, with the possible exception of impact strength. In miscible blends, impact strength decreased smoothly with PMMA; however, in immiscible blends, a drastic drop to less than the half that of ABS was obtained at 10 wt % PMMA. Compounding at higher temperature gave decreased modulus and strength and increased impact strength. Surface gloss decreased with PMMA addition in the miscible system and increased in the immiscible system up to 50 wt % PMMA. From contact-angle and FTIR measurements, it is suggested that the surface properties are governed by miscibility and the viscosity ratio of the components. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The Curie transition, even though the conformational change at the Curie transition primarily arises from intermolecular interaction, is highly dependent on the crystallization conditions. A slower cooling rate from the melt during paraelectric crystallization lowers Tc, increases the portion of Fβ at the expense of Fα reduction, and produces a more unstable ferroelectric phase. T↓c is rarely dependent upon the amount of PMMA, but T↑c is increased with the PMMA content. PMMA has a favorable action in forming a more stable ferroelectric phase in the P(VDF/TrFE)/PMMA blend and elevating the Curie transition point because of the all-trans sequence conformation of PMMA and a specific intermolecular interaction with P(VDF/TrFE) in the melt state. However, PMMA reduces the total amount of the crystalline phase, the electric response, and the piezoelectricity. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
