    Notes: In this, the first paper in a series on neck formation and steady-state drawing of polymeric fibers and films under uniaxial tension, the emphasis is laid on those aspects of the mechanics of cold drawing that are not sensitive to viscoelastic effects and, therefore, can be treated by use of constitutive assumptions appropriate to elastic materials. It is here shown that a unidimensional theory which has been employed to model the mechanics of slender bars in tension6 can be derived as an approximation for three-dimensional bars and, in a sense which can be made precise, is valid to within an error of the order of the fourth power of the thickness. A particular constitutive equation for incompressible, three-dimensional, elastic materials is explored in detail and is found to yield, for such slender bars as thin fibers and wide (but thin) strips of film, equations of equilibrium whose solutions are in good qualitative accordance with the necks and drawing configurations observed in practice.

    Notes: This study examines the interaction of human low density lipoprotein (LDL) with a select group of biomedical polymers. The adsorption characteristics of LDL on cured filler-free poly(dimethyl Siloxane) (C-PDMS), Biomer, Cardiomat 610, Kraton 1650, poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) and glass are presented. Adsorption of LDL to charged hydrophilic glass control surfaces occurred rapidly, reaching plateau concentrations within one minute (0.19 ± 0.01 ug/cm2). Adsorption of LDL to polymer surfaces appeared to be dependent upon both the polymer hydrophobicity (or apolar nature), and flexibility (or dynamic nature) at the interface. Increased surface concentrations were observed for Biomer (0.32 ± 0.01 ug/cm2) as well as other polymers which exhibited both hydrophobic and elastomeric próperties. Temperature changes between 25°C and 37°C were found to significantly influence the surface concentration of LDL on Biomer (0.16 ± 0.01 ug/cm2 at 25°C versus 0.32 ± 0.01 ug/cm2 at 37°C). A lipid core phase transition at 36°C was believed to be responsible for the temperature influence. Preliminary competitive adsorption studies of LDL with albumin (HSA) and serum on silicone surfaces suggests that LDL adsorption occurred rapidly and preferentially (0.25 ± 0.01 ug/cm2 for LDL alone; 0.33 ± 0.01 ug/cm2 for LDL + HSA; 0.15 ± 0.01 ug/cm2 LDL + serum). Preliminary studies on the role of LDL in calcification were not conclusive. It can be concluded that LDL adsorption is dependent upon polymer hydrophobicity, flexibility and temperature. Competitive adsorption experiments suggests that LDL may have substantial influence on protein adsorption.

    Notes: Examination by light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and x-ray microanalysis of a clinical total artificial heart (TAH) implanted for 112 days revealed no evidence of calcification, pannus, or vegetative thrombus. A macroscopic thrombus was seen along the suture line in the right atrium but did not obstruct blood flow or valve function. Microscopic thrombi (〈0.1 mm) and evidence of microemboli were observed on the pumping diaphragm using SEM. Characterization of selected polyetherurethane (PEU) samples from the pumping bladders and housing by Curie-point pyrolysis mass spectrometry (Py-MS) revealed unexpected differences between postmortem retrieved ventricles. Although the origin of these differences could be traced back to batch-to-batch variations in the original PEU material (Biomer), the precise nature of the observed differences in chemical structure and/or composition is still unknown. Numerical comparison between pyrolysis mass spectra from PEU samples exposed to blood or tissue and unexposed samples from the same ventricles did not detect evidence of biodegradation. Continual improvements in fabrication and quality control should minimize surface imperfections and ensure polymer reproducibility; however, existing materials and design parameters appear to be adequate for continued clinical implantation.

    Notes: We have developed and quantitated a reproducible standardized granulomatous inflammatory reaction using divinyl copolymer beads. Approximately 10000 gas sterilized beads (43-53 μm in diameter) are injected into the tail veins of mice and embolize to the lungs where they evoke granuloma formation which is maximal at 48 h. The anti-inflammatory effects of both steroidal and nonsteroidal agents, namely, bacterial levan, hydrocortisone acetate, polyanetholsulfonate, indomethacin, acetylsalicylic acid, ellagic acid, and aminophylline were determined by comparing granuloma size in treated animals with those in untreated controls. Granulomas in paraffin sections were traced on the ground glass screen of a light microscope and the area of each granuloma measured with a digitizer-computer programmed to prepare histograms and merge data from replicate experiments. Of the agents tested, the greatest reductions in granuloma size occurred after treatment with bacterial levan (71%), hydrocorticone (70%), polyanetholsulfonate (58%), and indomethacin (55%).

    Notes: The polymerization reactions of trans-cinnamoylferrocene have been described and a number of copolymers have been characterized. trans-Cinnamoylferrocene does not homopolymerize using conventional free radical techniques but forms copolymers with styrene, acrylonitrile, methyl methacrylate, ethyl acrylate, butadiene, isoprene, and 1,1-dihydroperfluorobutyl acrylate.

    Notes: Gelatin solutions shrink as water evaporates from the gel. If the shrinkage is prevented, tensile stresses develop. A technique is described for measuring the tensile stress developing in the plane of edge-clamped gelatin films during drying. It is based on measurement of the elastic deformation of the film when stressed normally to the plane of the film. A stress of 4000 pounds per square inch was observed in a dried gelatin film. The reality of the stress was confirmed in a completely independent manner.

    Notes: The preparation and properties of copolymers of three perfluoroalkyl propenyl ketones with different 1,3-dienes are described. Emulsion copolymerization at 50°C. and at 5°C. of perfluoromethyl, perfluoropropyl, and perfluoroheptyl propenyl ketones with 1,3-dienes, such as butadiene, 1, 1,2-trifluoro-3-chlorobutadiene, 1,1,2-trifluorobutadiene, and isoprene, has been accomplished and many of the products have exhibited elastomeric properties. Attempted copolymerization of perfluoropropyl propenyl ketone with 1,1,2-trifluoro-3,4,4-trichlorobutadiene or 1,1,2-trifluoro-3,4-dichlorobutadiene did not yield any polymeric products at either 50°C. or at 5°C. Qualitative determinations of thermal stability and solvent resistance have been made for some of the ketone/diene copolymers for comparison with commercial cold GR-S rubber.
