    Notes: The optical properties of the 1,N6 - etheno derivative of ApA (εApεA) have been studied. Absorbance and CD measurements suggest that (1) neutral salts tend to unstack this molecule and (2) the stacking interaction is weaker than in ApA. εApεA is found to be quenched strongly with respect to the monomer. (εAMP); this quenching is solvent dependent (1M NaCl 〉 5M NaClo4〉40%glycerol) and increases with the ratio of temperature to viscosity (T/η) in each case. Fluorescence lifetime measurements also reveal a temperature- and solvent-dependent decay which is nonlinear on a semilog plot. In the presence of 95% glycerol, this decay return to linearity. These data have been considered from two points of view: (1) two-state pictures which are based on thermodynamic least-squares fit to quatum yield and CD curves, together with two exponential fits to the decay curves and (2) a dynamical model in which relatives fluorophore motion leads to deexcitation via intramolecular collision. A simple model of type (2) gives qualitative agreement with the observed behavior.

    Notes: The scope and limitations of the potassium bromide disc technique for the infra-red determination of chain branching in small samples of polyethylene in powder form have been assessed. Many of the samples encountered have an average particle size, prior to grinding with potassium bromide, of about 100 μm and very satisfactory results have been obtained, but the presence of larger particles leads to poor quality discs and inferior results. The well established double beam technique proves suitable for removing the interfering methylene absorption and compensation with polymethylene in the form of a film rather than as a pressed disc is preferable. Difficulties were encountered in preparing branching standards in a uniform and fine powder form, to avoid variation of the absorption coefficient of the 1 378 cm-1 methyl band with particle size. Such powders are best obtained by precipitation from solution rather than by low temperature milling. Despite these problems chain branching measurements may be made with a precision of between 5 and 10% and an accuracy of about 15%.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Probleme, die bei Anwendung der Kompensationsmethode auf IR-spektroskopische Bestimmungen von niedrigen Verzweigungsgraden in Polyäthylenen hoher Dichte auftreten, werden systematisch untersucht. Die erzielbare Genauigkeit wird bestimmt und es wird gezeigt, daß, wenn möglich, eine Korrektur für die Methyl-Endgruppen angewendet werden sollte. Diese ist bei einigen Polymertypen leicht möglich, bei anderen hingegen schwieriger. Als Kompensationskeil im Referenzstrahl des Spektrometers verwendet man besser Polymethylen als hochmolekulares Polyäthylen. Die äußerste Empfindlichkeit, die mit der manuellen Kompensationsmethode erreicht werden kann, liegt bei einem Methylzweig pro 2000 C-Atome. Wenn diese Methode jedoch ergänzt wird durch Computer-Kurvendämpfung und Computer Mittelung über zahlreiche Momentspektren (“C.A.T.”), kann noch eine deutliche Verbesserung im Signal-Rausch-Verhältnis erzielt werden. Damit wird es möglich noch Verzweigungsgrade bis herunter zu 0,1 Methylgruppen pro 1000 C-Atome zu messen.
    Notes: The problems encountered in the infrared spectroscopic estimation of the low levels of chain branching present in high density polyethylene, using the compensation method, are discussed systematically. The precision to be expected has been determined and it is shown that, if possible, a correction should be applied for methyl groups present at the chain ends. This is feasible with some types of polymer but more difficult with others. The compensating wedge in the reference beam of the spectrometer should be made of polymethylene rather than a high molecular weight polyethylene. The ultimate sensitivity of the manual compensation method is about one methyl branch per two thousand carbon atoms. However, when this is supplemented by computer smoothing and off-line computation of average transients (C.A.T.), a significant improvement is obtained in the signal to noise ratio, and branching levels down to 0,1 methyl groups per thousand carbon atoms are readily measured.

    Notes: The techniques of Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) have been used to study the locus of failure of epoxy resin joints. The effects of a long water immersion and the application of a silane-based primer have also been studied. Results indicated that for dry joints fracture occurred near an epoxy resin/metal interface while with water-soaked unprimed joints, fracture occurred interfacially between the adhesive and iron oxide. The application of the primer to the metal surface prior to bonding prevented the formation of a water-formed oxide although fracture was then found to occur through the primer.

    Notes: In processing full-fat soy flour to an acid-precipitated lipid protein concentrate a byproduct whey fraction results which, because of its high biological oxygen demand, represents a serious disposal problem. Processing of food waste streams by reverse osmosis has received considerable attention because of its low theoretical energy requirement since no phase change is involved. In a previous study at this Center a mathematical model was developed for the diffusive transport of soy lipid protein concentrate whey across cellulose acetate membranes. In this study, pumping energy and power costs combined with membrane life and replacement costs were incorporated into the original model to provide a basis for optimization from an energy cost standpoint. Computer-simulated runs were compared with experimental pilot-plant runs, and the agreement between predicted and actual results was quite good. Water flux rates were in the range of 3 to 7 gal/ft2/day. Computer runs were used to optimize the processing of 100,000 gal/day of soy whey at 8000 ppm biological oxygen demand (BOD). Costs were at a minimum with a six-stage tapered flow primary reverse osmosis treatment over a porous cellulose acetate membrane, followed by a six-stage tapered flow reverse osmosis over a tighter membrane. BOD reduction was 94% at a cost of $5.45/1000 gal.

    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: 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: Cross-linkable poly[1-(trimethylsilyl)-1-propyne] (PTMSP) films were cast from toluene solutions containing PTMSP and either 4,4′-diazidobenzophenone or 4,4′-(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphenyl azide. The composite films were clear and homogeneous and were cross-linked by UV irradiation at room temperature or thermal annealing at 180°C. Low levels of the bis(aryl azide) (1-5 wt %) were effective in rendering the films insoluble in toluene and THF, both good solvents for PTMSP. The process is simple and effective, and thus PTMSP can be readily converted to mechanically stable membranes with permeabilities and separation factors comparable or higher than those of poly(dimethylsiloxane). The films were characterized by measuring their density, their permeability toward O2 and N2, and their spectroscopic properties. Compared to PTMSP, films containing bis(aryl azide) cross-linkers had lower permeabilities and higher separation factors, consistent with a reduction in free volume. When the films were cross-linked photochemically, the permeabilities declined further and the separation factor increased. Films cross-linked thermally had permeabilities comparable to their PTMSP/azide precursors, and density and swelling measurements suggest that higher free volumes are obtained in thermally cross-linked films. All films stored in air suffered from a slow decline in permeability which may reflect slow surface oxidation of the films. When stored in vacuum, cross-linked films were stable and showed no loss in permeability, but the permeability of uncross-linked PTMSP films stored under the same conditions fell to 70% of their original value in 1 month. We attribute the permeability decline to densification accelerated by impurities and solvents. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 959-968, 1998
