    Notes: A series of Melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) fragments have been synthesized and their biological activities compared with the parent peptide. The substructural units, 5-14 linear and 5-14 cyclic, have been used as models for MCH -  in 1H-nmr conformational studies. Conformational features predicted by molecular dynamics analyses find support in the nmr experiments.

    Notes: The viscoelastic responses of some molten polymers, and particularly of low density polyethylene (LDPE), are known to vary with processing history. Reasons for the variations include the effects of shear history on morphological states of the polymer, or on its molecular weight parameters. A typical low density polyethylene has been used to test the shear-history dependence concept following a variety of processing steps. The polymer was sheared in single-screw and twin-screw extruders, and in a high speed melter / mixer (Gelimat). Samples also were precipitated from very dilute solutions in trichlorobenzene and in p-xylene. GPC analyses showed that, in general, these procedures did not affect the various moments of molecular weight. An exception was the Gelimat-mixed sample, for which mild reductions in Mn and Mw were noted. In contrast, melt viscosity and elasticity readings, the former from low shear evaluations and the latter from extrudate swelling, were affected by the various procedures. A drop in melt viscosity and in elasticity was observed, being most pronounced for precipitated and twin-screw extruded versions of the LDPE. Reductions also were observed in the specimen sheared in the Gelimat instrument. Following conditioning at the test extrusion temperature (170°C), viscous and elastic responses tended to revert to those of the unsheared control sample, the exception again being the sample sheared in the Gelimat melter / mixer. Of the various mechanisms proposed in the literature to account for transient property changes such as those reported, temporary changes in the degree of chain entanglement appear the most satisfactory explanation. Irreversible alterations in viscoelastic properties may be associated with changes in molecular weights due to processing at high shear.

    Notes: The kinetics of grafting a basic monomer, 2-(dimethylamino)-ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) to hydrocarbon substrates have been investigated. These systems were chosen as models for the grafting of a homopolymerizable monomer to polyolefins such as polyethylene. The reactions with squalane and n-eicosane were initiated by an organic peroxide, 2,5-dimethyl 2,5 dit-butylperoxy)-3-hexyne; grafting yields become significant at high reaction temperatures and low monomer concentrations. In squalane, the order of reaction with respect to monomer increased from about 1.1 for 0.22-0.44M DMAEMA to almost 2 at 0.69M DMAEMA; the order with respect to initiator was 0.56. The overall activation energy in the 130-160°C temperature range was, however, surprisingly low, 42±5 kJ mol-1. When analytical data were used to separate the overall rate into those for grafting and homopolymerization, different kinetic paths were observed for the competing reactions. These results are interpreted in terms of two different mechanisms; intramolecular chain transfer plays an important role in grafting, while depropagation becomes a major factor in homopolymerization at temperatures above 150°C. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The peroxide-initiated grafting of vinyltrimethoxysilane (VTMS) onto dodecane has been examined as a model for grafting onto polyethylene. At 160°C, 2% v/v VTMS and 0.08% v/v initiator, the monomer was grafted onto dodecane with a 59% conversion and an average of 2.37 VTMS grafts per dodecane. These values were obtained by separation of the grafted material through reduced pressure distillation then characterization with FTIR and NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and gel permeation chromatography. NMR studies strongly indicate that the multiple grafts consist predominantly of multiple single grafts rather than homopolymer grafts. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Reactive melt processing of different types of diamines with polyethylene containing carboxylic acid groups and polystyrene containing anhydride groups was carried out. The reactivity of primary, secondary, and tertiary diamines with these acid polymers was determined using various techniques. Molecular weight increases due to crosslinking were observed through (1) changes in the torque during the reactive processing, (2) decrease in melt flow indices, and (3) decrease in solubility of the reaction products. The chemical compositions of the reaction products were examined by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Thermal analysis using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was carried out to determine the crystallization behavior, glass transition temperatures, and thermal stabilities of the reaction products. Results show that the primary amine is the most reactive towards carboxylic acid or anhydride groups followed by the secondary and then the tertiary amine. Anhydride groups on polymers are of higher activity towards secondary or primary amino groups than carboxylic acid groups in the nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions. Reaction products crosslinked with the primary diamine are less stable than their parent acidic polymers. On the other hand, crosslinking with the secondary or tertiary diamine gives products with higher thermal stability than the parent acidic polymers. The formation of reversible and irreversible crosslinks with different types of diamines is also reported. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    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 grafting of 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) onto two model hydrocarbons, squalane and n-eicosane, and to linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) has been investigated. The results of the study indicate that a high reaction temperature, 160°C, and a low concentration of monomer, less than 0.3 M, are optimum conditions for the grafting reaction. Reaction products, which consisted of grafted hydrocarbons and poly(DMAEMA), were separated by solvent extraction and vacuum distillation; samples were then analyzed by NMR and FTIR spectroscopy and size exclusion chromatography. 1H-NMR spectroscopy indicates that grafted squalane contained approximately 6 DMAEMA units per squalane residue. 1H- and 13C-NMR and molecular weight studies strongly suggest that the grafts onto the model hydrocarbons consist of single DMAEMA units. Results of the melt grafting of DMAEMA onto LLDPE show that the grafting efficiency and degree of grafting are substantially lower than were expected from the model system. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The mathematical tools necessary to describe quantitatively the chemical processes that dictate the performance of exhaust oxygen sensors are developed. Such sensors are used commonly to monitor exhaust streams generated by internal-combustion processes. Calculated results compare well with available experimental results, although several open questions are idetified that require more experimental data. The mathematical formalism for describing the transport of gaseous species through the porous spinel structure protecting the platinum electrode on the exhaust side of the sensor is developed based on the Stefan-Maxwell equations. The kinetic processes occurring at the interface formed by the platinum electrode and the spinel structure, including the oxidation of hydrogen and carbon monoxide and various adsorption-desorption reactions, enter as boundary conditions for the transport equations. The analysis enables one to calculate the sensor's voltage response as a function of the air-to-fuel ratio λ and to investigate phenomena such as the magnitude of the voltage jump in going from rich to lean gas mixtures and the λ value at which this jump occurs.

    Notes: A lab-scale nonflowing reactor was built to study chemical vapor deposition reactions. Mass spectrometry is used to follow reaction pathways and to determine instantaneous reaction rates throughout film growth. In each experiment, the kinetic rate dependence on concentration for a wide range of concentrations is observed as reactants convert to products. This method of obtaining kinetic data is efficient in terms of sample loading, gas usage, and time, since over 200 instantaneous rate/composition pairs can be determined from one 30-min deposition. Because the rate is determined from gas-mass balance, rather than film-thickness measurements, an unlimited number of rate studies can be made on one sample. As a test case, the SiH4 reduction of WF6, used to deposit tungsten during integrated-circuit production, was investigated in the 0.64-L nonflowing laboratory reactor. Gas compositions were measured 2 mm from the growing surface, throughout time, with a mass spectrometer equipped with a capillary sampling tube. Tungsten was deposited on the 95°C surface, and SiHF3 was the primary silicon fluoride reaction product for most tested conditions. A multiple-regression analysis of 1,975 instantaneous composition/rate pairs gives orders of 1.22 in silane, 0.27 in hydrogen, and -2.17 in WF6. The ratio of SiF4 to SiHF3 stays low and constant until the gas becomes silane-rich. The evolution of the instantaneous rate over time implies that a minimal level of thermal activation of the reactive gases is necessary for the deposition to be surface-rate-limited. Preliminary heat-transfer models of the wire substrate imply that heat transfer to the gas phase is in the Knudsen regime.
