    Notes: The fatigue crack propagation (FCP) behavior (at 10 Hz) of several commercial short-glass-fiber and mineral-reinforced nylon composites has been investigated. The FCP rates can be described in terms of the well-known Paris relationship. Significant improvement in FCP performance was found for the glass-fiber-reinforced materials in comparison to that of the pure matrix materials (nylon 66 and nylon 612). Also, the FCP resistance was found to increase with increasing fiber content and interfacial adhesion for nylon 66. Despite the fact that specimens were cut from injection-molded plaques, no or only slight effects of orientation were observed by testing specimens with cracks growing parallel and perpendicularly, respectively, to the major flow direction. Electron microscopy studies of fracture surfaces revealed a complex pattern of fiber orientation, varying over the plaque thickness and consisting of layers with fibers oriented mainly parallel, perpendicularly, or randomly to the major flow direction; nevertheless, the specimens behaved quasi-isotropically. Significant differences in fracture mechanism were observed, depending on the matrix, the interfacial bonding, and the crack speed. In contrast to the fiber-rein forced nylons, the mineral-reinforced material exhibited poorer FCP resistance than neat nylon 66, even though the former is superior in tensile and impact behavior.

    Notes: In order to obtain a more complete understanding of failure mechanisms in glassy polymers subjected to fatigue loading conditions, craze zone dimensions (i.e., length and thickness at the crack tip) were measured simultaneously with fatigue crack propagation data in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) by optical interferometry. Since the craze shape was observed to assume a wedge-shaped configuration similar to the one described by the Dugdale plastic strip model, crazing stresses were inferred on the basis of this model. When varying the stress ratio (R = minimum load/maximum load) of the applied cyclic load in the range from 0.1 to 0.7, it was found that both craze length and craze thickness are essentially independent of the R-ratio and can be correlated in terms of the maximum stress intensity factor only. On the other hand, significant variations in craze dimensions with test frequency occurred over the range from 0.1 to 250 Hz. The results are discussed in terms of the viscoelastic nature of the material and a competition between the effects of strain rate and hysteretic heating.

    Notes: The potential of reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) for the separation of the tryptic glycopeptides of the hemagglutinin (HA) glycoprotein of influenza virus has been investigated. Excellent separation was accomplished with sample recovery of at least 90-95% by the utilization of an octadecasilyl silica stationary phase and a phosphoric acid/n-propanol solvent system. Eight glycosylated tryptic peptide classes were resolved from the HA glycoprotein of the A/USSR/90/77 virus strain.

    Notes: Analyses of hydrocarbon fractions from different areas of the marine environment are described to illustrate the possibilities and limitations of high resolution gas chromatography (HRGC) in the analysis of environmental samples. Examples are given of dissolved, particulate, and sedimentary hydrocarbons and organochlorine compounds; the importance of an adequate sampling of the marine environment is stressed. HR chromatographic profiles obtained in two columns of low and high polarity (SE-52 and PEG 20M) permit the sources and transport pathways of both natural and anthropogenic hydrocarbons to be traced. Analysis of tissues of marine mammals, which metabolize or excrete many of the biogenic and petrogenic hydrocarbons present in other areas of the marine environment, may provide an opportunity to obtain relatively clean profiles of many anthropogenic compounds of interest. The plotting of mass chromatograms from data compiled by COM-GC-MS remains the most appropriate method for the conclusive indentification of these compounds.

    Notes: A gas chromatographic mass spectrometric assay for serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) has been developed. Serotonin is acylated in homogenized biological media, efficiently extracted into ethyl acetate, and further derivatized with pentafluoropropionic anhydride. Mass spectral characterization of derivatized serotonin using electron and positive or negative chemical ionization indicates that electron ionization mass spectrometry is useful for serotonin assay in most biological fluids and tissues, but that electron capture negative chemical ionization is required for samples containing less than 1-2 ng (cerebrospinal fluid). An assay limit of 10 pg per sample has been established. Examples of applications for the assay of serotonin in human platelets, rat spinal cord, and monkey cerebrospinal fluid are presented.

    Notes: Rapid and efficient sulfonation of ethylene-propylene terpolymer elastomer (EPDM) was achieved in a continuous melt mixing process. A mixture of sulfuric acid and acetic anhydride was used as the sulfonating agent. The reaction of EPDM polymer and the sulfonating agent was carried out in an extruder. It was shown that the continuous melt sulfonation of EPDM polymer may be used as an alternative to the batch solution methods previously reported for the preparation of sulfonated EPDM polymer. The extruder-reactor method offers advantages of shorter process time, elimination of solvent handling hazards, and abatement of solvent removal and recovery problems.

    Notes: Cold Compaction Molding and Sintering of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) has been examined as a function of particle size, sintering time and temperature, and cooling rate. Properties nearly equivalent to those obtained by compression molding can be obtained from samples with a fibrous particle morphology, sintered just above the melting point, with further improvement possible by control of particle size and addition of fine particles of normal molecular weight linear polyethylene. UHMWPE with a nodular particle morphology sintered poorly.

    Notes: There is an increasing body of evidence showing that, for a variety of copolymers, there are significant changes in the copolymer composition over the molecular weight distribution of the polymer. In this work, we have polymerized the copolymer poly(styrene-methyl methacrylate) using ethylaluminum sesquichloride as the initiator. The copolymers produced were fractionated using a semiprep gel permeation chromatograph. The composition of the fractions was determined using infrared spectroscopy. Results show that the percent methyl methacrylate of the copolymers was higher at both the low- and high-molecular-weight regions of the polymers.

    Notes: A novel technique is described which enables reliable fracture toughness measurements to be made in impact test on relatively small specimens of a tough polyethylene. Composite specimens have been made in which a tough polyethylene is sandwiched between two layers of a more brittle polyethylene. The overall fracture toughness is interpreted on the basis of simple additivity of the strain energy release rate associated with each of the component layers. Brittle plane strain failures were obtained for specimens in which the relative thickness of the layers was varied over a substantial range and the fracture toughness of each layer determined by suitable extrapolation. The fracture toughness of the brittle layer obtained in this way agreed well with direct measurements on that material.

    Notes: Thin plates of carbon short-fiber reinforcement polycarbonate were injection molded. The mold was designed to produce a uniform melt flow across the cavity and an extended knock-out pin was incorporated to form a circular hole at the center of the molded plate. The elastic constants of the plaques were determined using sections cut from the plate at different angles to the direction of flow. Analysis of the data showed that the plates could be treated macroscopically as being orthotropic. Microscopic observations revealed that the fiber orientation was primarily in the flow direction and was tangential in the vicinity surrounding the hole. The fracture toughness, as measured by the stress intensity (K), was determined using the compliance method. Experimental calibration curves were constructed at 0° and 90° to the axis of flow by loading specimens containing saw cuts of varying length. The resultant curves were non-dimensionalized by incorporation of the elastic moduli, thickness, and width. The fracture toughness values were determined using a razor notch as a starter crack. The crack growth during testing was found to be stable, which could allow several determinations to be made on each plate. The effects of crack length, flow in the cavity, and fiber orientation around the hole were investigated. The fracture toughness was found to decrease with increasing crack length, but was not found to reach a limiting value within the practical range of testing. The effect of flow was also found to be significant. Specimens oriented 90° to the axis of flow showed higher toughness values. This was attributed to the fibers being oriented perpendicular to the axis of the crack. The samples tested with razor notches cut at the edge of the molded holes had still higher apparent toughness values. Similarly, this effect was explained by the higher fiber orientation shown with photomicrographs of specimens cut near the edge of the hole.
