    Description / Table of Contents: Neuartige Fluoropolyether-Polyol-Harze, die mit konventionellen Härtern wie Polyisocyanaten oder Melaminen aushärtbar sind, wurden hergestellt. Zunächst wurden oligomere NCO-terminierte Prepolymere durch Addition von Fluorpolyether-Makrodiolen unterschiedlicher Molekulargewichte an Isophorondiisocyanate erhalten. Durch die Reaktion dieser Prepolymeren mit Trimethylolpropan wurden endständige Hydroxygruppen eingeführt. Die Viskosität von Lösungen dieser Harze wurde bei unterschiedlichen Konzentrationen (Massenbruch 0,4-0,8) und Temperaturen (25°C-65°C) gemessen. Die erhaltenen Werte wurden auf der Basis der Erickson-Gleichung (Konzentrationsabhängigkeit von η) und unter Berücksichtigung des WLF-und des Arrhenius-Modells (Temperaturabhängigkeit von η) diskutiert. Das thermische Verhalten der Harze und von ausgehärteten Filmen wurde mit DSC bestimmt. Dabei wurden zwei Glasübergange beobachtet, die den separierten fluorhaltigen und nicht-fluorhaltigen Phasen zugeordnet werden können. Die Analyse des Zugverhaltens der Filme zeigte besonders bei den mit Isocyanat gehärteten Proben ein ausgeprägtes hart-plastisches Verhalten. Diese Werkstoffe erscheinen für die Anwendung als hoch-wertige, dauerfeste und klare Beschichtungen geeignet.
    Notes: New fluoropolyether polyolic resins are presented suitable to be cured with conventional hardeners as polyisocyanates or melamines. These resins are prepared by addition of fluoropolyether macrodiols (Fomblin® ZDOLTX) of various molecular weights to isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) to give oligomeric NCO-terminated prepolymers. The final hydroxy functionality is obtained by the reaction of those prepolymers with trimethylolpropane (TMP). The viscosity of the resins is measured at various concentrations (weight fraction 0.8 - 0.4) and temperatures (T = 25-65°C). The results are discussed in terms of the Erickson equation (η vs. concentration) and using the WLF and Arrhenius models (η vs. T). The thermal behavior is studied by DSC for both the resins and cured films indicating the presence of two Tgs, corresponding to the segregated fluorinated and hydrogenated phases, the former particularly evident with the highest molecular weights of the fluorinated macromer. Tensile curves of selfsupported films are then analyzed showing an evident tough-plastic behavior especially for the isocyanate-cured films. The application of such materials as high-durability clear coats is finally proposed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zur Verbesserung der Maßhaltigkeit und der Zähigkeit von gehärteten Melamin-Formaldehyd-Harz-Formmassen (MF) wurden teilverträgliche, methylolgruppenhaltige Epoxidharze (EP) auf Bisphenol A-Basis hergestellt und charakterisiert. Die Vernetzung solcher Epoxyresolharze durch 2-Ethyl-4-methylimidazol in Gegenwart von MF-Harz wurde untersucht. Spritzgepreßte Probekörper zeigen eine Zweiphasenstruktur; die EP-Phase kann als Wirt für carboxy-funktionalisierte, oligomere NBR-Kautschuke (CTBNX) dienen, die für sich allein in MF-Harzen nicht wirksam sind. Unter der Voraussetzung von kovalenten Bindungen in der Phasengrenzfläche kann durch den Zusatz von 0,5 bis 4 Gew.-% CTBNX zur MF-Formmasse bei EP-Anteilen bis 20 Gew.-% eine 50 bis 100proz. Steigerung von Bruchdehnung und Schlagzähigkeit erreicht werden, ohne daß Steifigkeit und Wärmeformbeständigkeit wesentlich abfallen. Bei moderaten EP/CTBNX-Gehalten wird zusätzlich die Nachschwindung von MF-Formteilen vermindert.
    Notes: In order to improve dimension stability and toughness of melamine formaldehyde moulding materials (MF), compatible bisphenol A epoxy resins (EP) with additional methylol groups were synthesized and characterized. Crosslinking of those epoxyresol resins with 2-ethyl-4-methylimidazole in the presence of MF resin was investigated. Transfer-moulded specimens revealed a two-phase morphology in which the EP phase is used as a host for modification with carboxylic functionalized oligomeric NBR rubber (CTBNX), which is not effective in MF moulding materials alone. The addition of 0.5 - 4 wt.-% CTBNX to the MF moulding materials at an epoxy content of maximum 20 wt.-% results in 50-100 % increase of elasticity and toughness without serious decrease in stiffness and heat deflection temperature, provided that covalent interfacial bonds exist. In addition, the post-shrinkage of MF parts decreases if a moderate EP/CTBNX content is introduced.

    Description / Table of Contents: Der gleichzeitige Einfluß des Verhältnisses von Fließhilfsmittel (Paraloid K 120N), Rußart und Schlagzähmodifikator (CPE 3615 und Kane Ace B56 A) auf die wichtigsten physiko-mechanischen Eigenschaften unplastifizierter PVC-Mischungen wurde studiert.Die erhaltenen Resultate wurden mathematisch verarbeitet und graphisch als Funktionsflächen dargestellt. Bemerkenswert ist, daß die Einführung von 2,5 und 5 Teilen Ruß eine Verbesserung der physico-mechanischen Eigenschaften ermöglicht. Dieses Resultat ist durch die Anwesenheit der Schlagzäh- und Fließmodifikatoren zu erklären.
    Notes: The concurrent influence of the processing aid (Paraloid K 120N) and the carbon black ratio, as well as the nature and the ratio of the impact modifier (CPE 3615 and Kane Ace B56 A) on the main physico-mechanical characteristics of the poly(vinyl chloride)-based unplasticized mixtures have been studied. The results obtained, processed mathematically and plotted graphically in the form of response surfaces, evidenced that the improvement of certain physico-mechanical properties becomes possible by the introduction of 2.5 parts and 5.0 parts carbon black into these compounds. This is due to the introduction of impact modifiers and processing aids into the mixtures.

    Description / Table of Contents: Eine Reihe neuartiger Polyhydrazide mit endständigen Phenoxygruppen wurde aus äquimolaren Anteilen von Dicarbonsäuredichloriden und Phenoxyterephthalsäuredihydrazid durch Lösungspolykondensation in N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidinon (NMP) bei niedriger Temperatur hergestellt. Durch thermische Cyclisierung der Polyhydrazide wurden die entsprehchenden Poly(1,3,4-oxadiazol)e mit endständigen Phenoxygruppen erhalten. Die Polymeren wurden durch Viskosimetrie, Löslichkeitsuntersuchungen, IR-Spektroskopie, Differentialkalorimetrie und Thermogravimetrie charakterisiert.
    Notes: A series of new polyhydrazides containing pendent phenoxy groups has been synthesized by low-temperature solution polycondensation of equimolar amounts of diacid dichlorides and 2-phenoxyterephthalic dihydrazide in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidi-none (NMP). The thermal cyclization of the polyhydrazides gave the corresponding poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole)s containing pendent phenoxy groups. The polymers were characterized by viscometry, solubility measurements, IR spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis.

    Description / Table of Contents: Ein Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Copolymeres (EVA) mit 12% Vinylacetat-Gehalt wurde mit Trimethylolpropantrimethacrylat (TMPTMA) als Sensibilisator mit Elektronen bestrahlt. Die mechanischen und elektrischen Eigenschaften der bestrahlten Copolymerproben wurden untersucht. Die Resultate zeigen, daß sich Zugfestigkeit und Bruchdehnung zunächst mit zunehmender Strahlungsdosis verbessern und bei Überschreiten einer optimalen Strahlungsdosis und Sensibilisatorkonzentration wieder verschlechtern. Durch die Bestrahlung wird eine Vernetzung des Polymeren ausgelöst, die auf den sich mit der Strahlungsdosis erhöhenden Gelanteil zurückgeführt wird. Im Vergleich mit den Originalproben nehmen sowohl die Dielektrizitätskonstante als auch der dielektrische Verlustfaktor durch die Elektronenbestrahlung ab.
    Notes: Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer (12% vinyl acetate content) is subjected to electron beam irradiation using trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TMPTMA) as a radiation sensitizer. Mechanical and electrical studies of these irradiated samples show that the strength properties (tensile strength, elongation at break) are increased with radiation dosage up to an optimum radiation dose and sensitizer level above which the properties begin to deteriorate. Crosslinking of the polymer takes place on irradiation which is attributed to an increased gel content with increasing radiation dose. Compared to the original samples both dielectric constant and dielectric loss factor decrease for samples subjected to irradiation.

    Description / Table of Contents: Cellulose-p-toluolsulfonsäureester (Cellulosetosylate) lassen sich durch homogene Umsetzung von Cellulose in einer Lösung aus N,N-Dimethylacetamid und LiCl mit Tosylchlorid (Tos-Cl) und Triethylamin in 24 h bei 8°C in hoher Ausbeute und mit minimalem Einbau von Chlordesoxy-Gruppen herstellen. Die unterschiedlichen Celluloseausgangsmaterialien hatten durchschnittliche Polymerisationsgrade von 280 bis 5100. Die Produkte wurden mit Elementaranalyse, 13C-NMR- und FTIR-Spektroskopie und durch Bestimmung der Grenzviskositäten charakterisiert. Die Erhöhung des Molverhältnisses Tos-Cl/Anhydroglucose-Einheit (AGU) von 0.6 auf 9.0 führte zu einem Anstieg des Substitutionsgrades (DS) von 0.4 bis auf einen Maximalwert von 2.3. Die Cellulosetosylate sind in herkömmlichen organischen Lösungsmitteln wie Dimethylsulfoxid (im gesamten DS Bereich) und in N,N-Dimethylacetamid, N,N-Dimethylformamid, Aceton, Tetrahydrofuran und Trichlormethan (in Abhängigkeit von DS) löslich. Durch 13C-NMR-Spektroskopie wurde nachgewiesen, daß die Tosylierung am O-6 Atom der AGU schneller als an den O-2/3 Atomen erfolgt. Die Analyse der korrespondierenden Ioddesoxycellulosen, die durch Umsetzung mit NaI in Acetylaceton synthetisiert wurden, bestätigte dies zusätzlich. Darüber hinaus wurden wichtige Eigenschaften der Cellulosetosylate wie die Stabilität gegenüber Alkali und thermischer Beanspruchung untersucht.
    Notes: Pure cellulose p-toluenesulfonates (tosylates) with an insignificant formation of chlorodeoxy groups were prepared by reacting cellulose dissolved in a solution of N,N-dimethylacetamide and LiCI with tosylchloride (Tos-CI) in the presence of triethylamine within 24 h at 8°C. Various cellulosic starting materials with a degree of polymerization from 280 to 5 100 were used. The samples obtained were characterized by means of elemental analysis, FTIR and 13C NMR spectroscopy, and their intrinsic viscosities. The rise of the molar ratio of Tos-CI/anhydroglucose unit (AGU) from 0.6 to 9.0 leads to an increase in the degree of substitution (DS) from 0.4 up to a maximum value of 2.3. The cellulose tosylates are readily soluble in common organic solvents like dimethyl sulfoxide (within the whole DS range) and in N,N-dimethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, acetone, tetrahydrofuran and trichloromethane depending on DS. As revealed by 13C NMR spectroscopy a faster tosylation takes place at the O-6 atom of AGU compared with the O-2/3 atoms. This was additionally confirmed by analysis of the corresponding iododeoxy celluloses synthesized with NaI in acetylacetone. Furthermore, some important properties as stability against alkaline and heat were studied as well.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Herstellung einer SiC-Oberfläche auf Kohlefasern unter Verwendung einer Sol-Gel-Mischung von Tetraethylorthosilikat (TEOS) und Phenolharz wurde untersucht. FTIR- und SEM-Untersuchungen zeigten, daß die SiC-Oberfläche durch carbothermische Reduktion der Sol-Gel-Mischung bei 1 420°C innerhalb von 15-20 min in einer Argon-Atmosphäre gebildet werden kann. Mittels TGA konnte gezeigt werden, daß die SiC-Beschichtung die thermo-oxidative Stabilität der Kohlefasern erhöht. Bei der erreichten SiC-Schichtdicke von 0,47 μm, bei einem C/Si-Verhältnis von 4, zeigt sich keine Beeinflussung der mechanischen Stabilität der Kohlefasern.
    Notes: The preparation of a SiC coating on a carbon fiber surface using a sol-gel mixture of tetraethyl orthosilicat (TEOS) and phenolic resin was studied. FTIR and SEM investigations indicated that the SiC coating can be formed by carbothermal reduction of the sol-gel mixture at 1420°C for 15-20 min in an argon atmosphere. TGA of the coated fiber was also performed, showing that the SiC coating improves the thermooxidative stability of the carbon fiber. With the thickness of the obtained coating of 0.47 μm using a C/Si ratio of 4, this treatment does not affect the carbon fiber strength.

    Description / Table of Contents: Diese Mitteilung behandelt den Einfluß von oligomeren Polypropylen- und Polybutylenölen mit unterschiedlichem Molekulargewicht auf die adhäsiven Eigenschaften von ataktischem Polypropylen (aPP) und dessen Mischungen mit einem Styrol-Ethylhexylacrylat-Copolymeren. Die mechanische Adhäsionsarbeit Am von Mischungen, die ataktisches Polypropylen und das Oligomere enthalten, steigt mit dem Molekulargewicht des Oligomeren, was im Fall des Propylenöls signifikanter ist. Im Fall der ternären Mischungen des ataktischen Polypropylens mit dem Styrol-Ethylhexylacrylat-Copolymeren und Oligomeren wird ein Adhäsions-Maximum beobachtet, wenn der Gehalt an Styrol-Ethylhexylacrylat-Copolymeren in der Mischung ungefähr 30 Gew.-% erreicht. Wenn kein Oligomeres in der Mischung vorhanden ist, kann man bei dieser Zusammensetzung ein Adhäsions-Minimum beobachten, was auf die Unverträglichkeit der übrigen Komponenten zurückzuführen ist.
    Notes: This paper deals with the influence of oligomers, namely propylene oil and butylene oil, of different molecular weight on the adhesive properties of atactic polypropylene (aPP) and its mixtures with styrene-2-ethylhexyl acrylate (S-EHA) copolymer. The mechanical work of adhesion Am of the mixture containing atactic polypropylene and oligomer increases with the molecular weight of the oligomer, which was more significant in the case of propylene oil. For ternary mixtures aPP-S-EHA copolymer/oligomer a maximum of adhesion can be observed if the content of the S-EHA copolymer in the mixture reaches about 30 mass-%. In the absence of oligomers in the mixture a minimum of adhesion can be observed for this composition, which can be attributed to the incompatibility of the remaining components.

The effects of monomer ratio on copolymer composition, conversion, microstructure, molar mass and molar mass distribution as well as of time of polymerization and of the aluminium/titanium ratio were evaluted. The copolymerization parameters were determined according to Kelen-Tüdős as rbutadiene = 0,9 and rpropylene oxide = 3,9. Copolymerization was confirmed by 13C NMR spectroscopy and extract evaluation combined with 1H NMR spectroscopy.

Neben dem Einfluß der Monomerzusammensetzung auf den Umsatz, die Microstruktur, die Copolymerzusammensetzung, die Molmassen sowie die Molmassenverteilungen wurden auch die Polymerisationszeit und das Aluminium/Titan-Verhältnis untersucht. Die Copolymerisationsparameter wurden nach Kelen-Tüdős zu rButadien = 0,9 und rPropylenoxid = 3,9 bestimmt. Der Copolymernachweis erfolgte über 13C-NMR-Spektroskopie und Extraktionsuntersuchungen in Verbindung mit 1H-NMR-Spektroskopie.

    Description / Table of Contents: Phosphorhaltige Polyurethane (PU-P) auf der Basis von Bisphenol A wurden durch N-Alkylierung hergestellt und mittels IR- und 1H NMR-Spektroskopie charakterisiert. Physikalische und thermische Eigenschaften dieser Polyurethane wurden mittels Differentialkalorimetrie, Thermogravimetrie, Röntgenbeugung und Untersuchungen der Löslichkeit, der Feuerbeständigkeit (Sauerstoffindex, LOI) und der reduzierten Viskosität bestimmt. Die Glastemperaturen der N-alkylierten Polymeren sanken von 120°C für das Ausgangspolymere bis auf 29°C für das N-alkylierte Polyurethan mit 2 Gew.-% Phosphor. Die Viskosität der N-alkylierten Polyurethane nahm von 0,36 dL g-1 auf 0,24 dL g-1 ab. Die phosphorhaltigen Polyurethane besitzen eine geringere thermische Stabilität und bessere Löslichkeit sowie höhere Feuerbeständlgkeit als das Ausgangspolymere. Die Röntgenstreuexperimente ergaben, daß ein erhöhter Phosphorgehalt der Polyurethane die Kristallinität herabsetzt.
    Notes: Phosporus-containing polyurethanes (PU-P) based on bisphenol A were prepared by N-alkylation. The structures of N-alkylated polyurethanes were characterized by IR and 1H NMR spectra. Physical and thermal properties of the phosphorus-containing polyurethanes were investigated with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction, tests of solubility, limiting oxygen index (LOI) and reduced viscosity. Tg of the N-alkylated polymers decreased from 120°C for the starting polymer to 29°C of the 2.0 wt.-% phosphorus-containing polyurethanes. The viscosity of N-alkylated polyurethanes also decreased from 0.36 dL g-1 to 0.24 dL g-1. The thermal stability of polyurethanes decreased on the introduction of phosphorus groups. The LOI values of polyurethanes showed that fire resistance of phosphorus-containing polyurethanes was enhanced. X-ray diffraction measurements showed that the increased phosphorus content was accompanied by decreased crystallinity of the polyurethanes. The solubility of PU-P was improved.

    Notes: This question was addressed using various methods to monitor the process of curing and state of the final network. Attention was particularly focused on the possible inhomogeneous network formation as a consequence of the crosslinking process. An analysis of experimental data has revealed that some cured resins can be considered as homogeneous as the corresponding uncrosslinked materials. Resins cured by simple stepwise alternating chemistries, with good compatibility of components, usually fulfill the criterion of homogeneity. A family of epoxy resins cured with polyamines belongs to this category. Nodular structures seen by electron microscopy are a result of interaction of the electron beam or etching. Such structures are also observed for uncrosslinked polymers investigated under the same conditions. Formation of inhomogeneities in a number of thermoset systems is due to (a) chainwise mechanism of network formation with fast propagation inducing cyclization and steric volume exclusion and (b) poor compatibility of components of the system made stronger by increasing molecular weights and crosslinking during curing. Networks formed by freeradical polymerization and copolymerization of polyvinyl monomers can serve as an example of crosslinking-driven formation of inhomogeneities.

    Notes: The base and transition metal catalyzed isomerization of allyl and crotyl ethers affords a facile, high yield route to the preparation of a variety of mono-, di-, and multifunctional 1-propenyl and 1-butenyl ethers. Employing this novel method, monomers containing epoxide, ester, ether carbonate and urethane groups can be prepared from their readily available allyl and crotyl precursors. In general, these monomers display very high reactivity in cationic polymerizations. In our work, we have focused on photoinduced cationic polymerizations of these monomers using diaryliodonium and triarylsulfonium salt photoinitiators. To study these very fast photopolymerizations, extensive use of real-time infrared spectroscopy was made. Employing this technique, the effects of monomer and photoinitiator structure on the rates of polymerization were studied.

    Notes: Rubber elasticity is associated with changes in configurational entropy of a long chain. Because the chain cannot change its configuration instantaneously, there is a time delay in deformation to an applied force. This delayed response is the source of viscoelasticity and hysteresis energy loss of elastomer networks. Many tire performance properties are related to the viscoelasticity of tire components. Wet and dry traction of tire is related to the energy loss of the tread material at very high frequencies. On the other hand, rolling resistance of tire is characterized by the energy loss of tread material at relatively low frequencies. The dynamic viscoelastic properties of elastomer network shows characteristic zones on a frequency scale. At very high frequencies the energy loss is controlled by the segmental motions of the polymer chain. At lower frequencies the energy loss is related to the longer range motions of the chain. A series of polymers was synthesized to study the effect of micro- and macro-structure of the polymer on the viscoelastic properties of tread compounds and their tire performance properties. As expected from the theory, the wet traction of the tire was highly correlated to the segmental motions of the chains; namely, the glass transition temperature of the polymer. The energy loss of the compounds at a higher temperature, however, was related to the macrostructure of the polymer chain. Those examples illustrate that the fundamental understanding of the theory of elastomer network allows a tire engineer to obtain the best balance of tire performance characteristics.

    Notes: Cationic, anionic, and radical ring-opening polymerization of spiro and bicyclic monomers, and their application to network polymers have been developed. Bicyclo orthoesters (BOEs), spiro orthoesters (SOEs), and spiro orthocarbonates (SOCs) were polymerized by cationic double ring-opening. Bicyclobis(γ-butyrolactone)s and spirobis(γ-butyrolactone)s were copolymerized with epoxides by anionic alternating ring-opening. Polymers from SOCs bearing exomethylene groups consisted of ring-opened and vinyl polymerized units. The degree of ring-opening of SOCs depended upon the number of rings and steric hindrance. The radical polymerization of vinylcyclopropanone cyclic acetals depended on the ring-size. With the monomers bearing 5- and 6-membered acetal rings, single ring-opened polymers were obtained. With the monomer bearing 7-membered acetal ring, the polymer mainly consisted of double ring-opened unit. These monomers could be crosslinked by bifunctionalization. Poly(cyclic orthoester)s linked by covalent bonds with dithiols to bifunctional SOEs were crosslinked by acid catalysts, and the reversible crosslinking-depolymerization system could be controlled by temperature.

    Notes: Polyester urethane network elastomers with incorporated hard segment oligomers have been prepared by poly(ethylene adipate)glycol (PEA), 2,4-tolylene diisocyanate (TDI), and 1,4-butanediol (BD). These hard segment oligomers were hydroxy-terminated oligomers ([BD-TDI]n-BD; n=1,3), obtained by reacting BD with TDI. Concentrations of allophanate as a cross-linking site were determined by the amine degradation method. Hard segment moieties were obtained by a novel selective hydrolysis of soft segments in the elastomers. Molecular weight distributions of hard segment were measured by means of GPC. Mechanical and thermal properties were measured. Dependence of rubber elasticity on physical cross-linking between normal elastomers and the elastomers with incorporated hard segment oligomers were discussed.

    Notes: Poly (vinyl alcohol) with pendent styrylpyridinium groups (SbQ) is insolubilized by photoirradiation. An association takes place in SbQ groups. The association of polymer chains becomes marked with increasing the number of SbQ groups. Mainly intermolecular crosslinks were formed. Transparent and homogeneous macrogels consisting of several intermolecular crosslinks are obtained.The proportion of the free water to the bound water in PVA-SbQ gels was 3.3-2.9 despite of the large change in conversion of photodimerization of SbQ groups, x=0.27-0.58. The water uptake after swelling of the gels in water increased 6-27 times compared to the original weight at pH=7. The higher the degree of photocrosslinking, the lower was the degree of swelling. The water diffusion coefficients, D, were (2.2-5.8) × 10-5 cm2 S-1 for a 88% saponified PVA with 1 . 3 mol% SbQ groups. The volume of the gel increased discontinuously about 10-fold for the 99% saponified PVA with 0 . 096 mol% SbQ and 51% water (49% acetone). The acetone concentration at the transition decreased with increasing the degree of saponification of the PVA.

    Description / Table of Contents: Durch anionische Copolymerisation von Allylmethacrylat und Methylmethacrylat wurden Makromonomere unterschiedlicher Kettenlänge mit durchschnittlich drei Allyl-Doppelbindungen pro Kette hergestellt́ und mit NMR-Spektroskopie und Gelpermeationschromatographie charakterisiert. Durch Copolymerisation der Makromonomeren mit 1-Vinyl-2-pyrrolidon wurden dreidimensionale Strukturen erhalten. Die optischen und mechanischen Eigenschaften der Produkte wurden untersucht, und die Quellungseigenschaften und Vernetzungsgrade wurden bestimmt. Die Copolymereigenschaften wurden durch Makromonomere mit Kettenlängen bis 40 Einheiten nur wenig beeinflußt. Bei Kettenlängen über 50 Einheiten wurde eine leichte Abnahme der Wasseraufnahmefähigkeit und eine deutliche Erhähung des Elastizitätsmoduls beobachtet. Die Vernetzungsgrade hängen von der Makromonomer-Kettenlange ab; eine merkliche Erhöhung aufgrund der groößeren Zahl an Methyl-Methyl-Wechselwirkungen wurde bei Kettenlangen über 50 Einheiten festgestellt. Die Copolymeren zeigen günstige Festigkeits-Dehnungs-Eigenschaften und einen geringen Gehalt an wasserlöslichen Extrakten, in denen durch IR-Spektroskopie 1-Vinyl-2-pyrrolidon-Homopolymere identifiziert wurden. Obwohl mit allen untersuchten Makromonomeren gute Resultate erzielt wurden, scheint für die Copolymerisation mit 1-Vinyl-2-pyrrolidon das Makromonomere mit 50 Einheiten am besten geeignet.
    Notes: Macromonomers of various chain lengths with an average of three allyl double bonds per chain were prepared by anionic copolymerization of allyl methacrylate with methyl methacrylate. The macromonomers were characterized by gel permeation chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance. The macromonomers were then copolymerized with 1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone to form three-dimensional structures. Their optical, swelling and mechanical properties were studied and the crosslinking efficiency was determined. The copolymer properties are not greatly affected by macromonomer chain lengths up to 40-mers; above 50-mers there is a slight decrease in the equilibrium water content and a significant increase in the modulus of elasticity. The crosslinking efficiency depends on the macromonomer chain length; a marked increase was observed for the 50-mer because of a greater number of methyl-methyl interactions. Copolymers have favourable strength-strain properties and a low content of water-soluble extracts, in which the IR analysis demonstrated the presence of 1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone homopolymers. In spite of the good results obtained for all the macromonomers described in this work, the 50-mer seems to be optimal for copolymerization with 1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone.

The chemical reactions were investigated by means of titration and different spectroscopic and chromatographic methods. It was examined whether the less complicated and therefore cheaper in situ reaction delivers postcured products with equal or better properties. Furthermore, it was investigated whether the results are similar using technical phenolic hardeners.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zur Entwicklung neuartiger ökologisch verträglicher makromolekularer Schlichtemittel wurden in früheren Arbeiten Copolymerisationsreaktionen zwischen Polyvinylalkohol (PVA) und Stärke unter Verwendung von chemisch reaktiven bifunktionellen Verbindungen wie N-Methylolacrylamid beschrieben. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit werden die physikochemischen Eigenschaften des resultierenden Copolymeren untersucht. Von Bedeutung sind hierbei insbesondere Merkmale wie Molekulargewichtsverteilung, Klebekraft, Stabilität, Löslichkeit sowie rheologische Eigenschaften. Derartige Kenntnisse über die physikochemische Beschaffenheit der PVA-Ausgangsverbindung sowie des makromolekularen Endproduktes sind eine wesentliche Voraussetzung für die Entwicklung von neuen Produkten, die als wasserlösliche, recycelbare Schlichtemittel zur Anwendung in der Textilindustrie kommen können.
    Notes: A macromolecular sizing agent based on the copolymerization of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with hydrolysed starch was prepared using the chemically reactive bifunctional compound N-methylolacrylamide. Detailed characteristics of the resultant PVA/N-methylolcarbamoylethylated starch copolymer were studied where emphasis has been placed on solubility, rheological properties, molecular weight distribution, adhesive power and stability. Elucidation of the nature of the macromolecular segments of both N-methylolcarbamoylethylated PVA as well as PVA/N-methylolcarbamoylethylated starch copolymer fulfilled the prerequisite to tailor PVA/starch copolymer which is appropriate for application as a water-soluble recyclable sizing agent by ultrafiltration.

    Notes: Seismic isolation was reconfirmed to be extremely efficient for the protection of buildings, and hence human life, on the occasion of the Great Hanshin Earthquake. Rubber bearings are placed under the buildings for isolation, and thus the type of rubber bearings is a dominant factor for efficient isolation. In this report, the performance of peripherally restraining type rubber bearing (PRB) was examined where its contracted model was found to simulate the performance of full scale PRB precisely. Damping ratio and vertical spring constant of PRB are as good as the existing ones. PRB showed lower critical shear strain, but it was concluded that no problems were found for the actual use of PRB.

    Notes: The network formation of phenol-formaldehyde resin was investigated by the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation technique. The observed value of the gel point, pc, was exactly determined as a critical extent of reaction, where the Mw/Mn in soluble parts is maximum. The MC simulation with the cubic percolation theory was applied to the gelation of phenolic resins and gave an exact gel point, which was in excellent agreement with the observed value of pc. The simulation showed that the intramolecular reaction occurred frequently with increasing the gel fraction beyond the gel point. The structural analysis of the maximum cluster with the computer strongly supported the contribution of the intramolecular reaction to the network formation of the gel.

    Notes: The structure of the hydrogel of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) was investigated by small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) of synchrotron radiation. A physically crosslinked blend gel, which was prepared by repetitive freezing and thawing of an aqueous solution of PVA and PAA, could be chemically crosslinked by esterfication of PVA with PAA even in the hydrogel state. The chemical crosslinking induced the destruction of physical crosslinks into a folded structure, indicating that the chemical crosslinking proceeds at the sites around the physical crosslinks that contain PVA and PAA in much higher concentration than other portion of the gel. The pH-induced structure changes of the PVA hydrogels, chemically crosslinked with poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) were investigated by SAXS on the samples of various chemical crosslinking time. The gels were shrunk at pH4, and swollen at pH8. The results of SAXS showed, that the Porod slope changed with chemical crosslinking time from -3.5 to -2.9 at pH4, and from -2.9 to -2.4 at pH8. The results suggest that a folded structure as a structural domain, which is characterized by fractally rough interface, tends to change into the structure that corresponds to percolation cluster, particularly at pH8. The gels immersed in pH8 showed a remarkable structure change accompanying swelling. The results revealed that a conformational change of PAA chains, induced by the pH change, can be explained by the presence of a structural domain in the gel network, where both PVA chains and PAA chains get entangled and partially form a interpenetrating polymer network(IPN).

    Notes: Polyurethane elastomers were investigated as electrically active materials for actuators. Components in hard segment and soft segment in the elastomers were varied. The elastomers with excellent electrostrictive properties were limited to those which had soft segments of polyesters and polylactones. It turned out, that the elastomers, whose soft segments are polyethers are electrically inert under the experimental conditions. The chemical structure of the hard segment seems not to influence to the electrostrictive property. The charging and discharging process was investigated. The charging process was found to proceed simultaneously with the contracting process caused by the electric field, suggesting that the orientation of the soft segment in the elastomer plays critical rolls in the electrostrictive action. In the elastomer, which has a soft polyether segment and was inactive to the electric field, could be actuated very efficiently when the elastomer was swollen with dimethyl sulfoxide. We conclude that the polyurethane elastomer, whose soft segment has chemical bonds with a relatively large dipole moment, can be actuated by the electric field application, and that even the elastomer, whose soft segment is inactive, could be actuated in the presence of a solvent with a large dipole moment. Thus, the concept found with the gel, could be applied to an elastomer, the soft segment of which plays partly the roll of the solvent in the gel.

With 6-O-glycolchitosan, however, water-soluble amphoteric polyelectrolyte derivatives of chitosan having higher molecular weight were obtained. The oxidized 6-O-glycolchitosan (OX-GC) showed a pH sensitive change of viscosity in aqueous solution. Moreover, the OX-GC hydrogel, cross-linked with glutaraldehyde, showed a pH sensitive swelling behavior. The OX-GC showed biodegradation behavior by lysozyme after acetylation.

    Description / Table of Contents: Das Fließ- und Bruchverhalten eines durch das gleichzeitige Härten eines ungesättigten Polyesters (UP) und eines wärmehärtbaren Bismaleimidharzes (BMI) erhaltenen quervernetzten Polymernetzwerkes wurde über einen weiten Temperatur- und Beanspruchungsbereich untersucht. Die Fließspannung σy und der Youngsche Elastizitätsmodul E steigen bei Zunahme der Spannungsbeanspruchung bzw. bei Absinken der Temperatur. Zudem steigen bei ansonsten gleichen Testbedingungen σy und E mit zunehmendem BMI-Gehalt im Blend. Andererseits wurde eine Beeinflussung des Bruch-Parameters Kc durch die Gegenwart des BMI nicht beobachtet. Der Fließprozess wurde sowohl mit Hilfe der Theorie von Argon als auch mit der von Bowden untersucht; die daraus abgeleiteten Molekül-Parameter wurden mit der bei der Härtung gebildeten Molekularstruktur in Beziehung gesetzt.
    Notes: The yielding and the fracture behaviour of an intercrosslinked polymer network obtained by the simultaneous curing of an unsaturated polyester (UP) and a thermosetting bismaleimide resin (BMI) was investigated in a wide range of temperatures and testing rates. The yield stress σy and the Young's modulus E increase by increasing the testing rate and decreasing temperature. Moreover, under the same testing conditions, σy and E increased as the BMI content in the blend was enhanced. On the other hand, it was found that the fracture parameter Kc was not affected by the presence of BMI. The yielding process was analyzed using the theories both of Argon and Bowden and the molecular parameters derived there were related to the molecular structure of the network developed upon curing.

    Description / Table of Contents: Dicarbonsäuredichloride mit sowohl Hexafluorisopropyliden-Brücken und Imidringen im Molekül wurden mit p-Aminobenzhydrazid oder Mischungen aus aromatischen Diaminen und p-Aminobenzhydrazid oder Terephthaldihydrazid zu Poly(hydrazidimid-amid)en umgesetzt, die anschließend zu neuen fluorhaltigen Poly(1,3,4-oxadiazol-imid-amid)en mit verschiedenem Amid/Oxadiazol-Verhältnis cyclodehydriert wurden. Diese sind in polaren amidischen Lösungsmitteln löslich; aus solchen Lösungen lassen sich flexible Filme herstellen. Die Glasübergangstemperaturen liegen zwischen 254°C und 325°C. Sie sind bis zu 415-450°C thermisch stabil.
    Notes: A series of new fluorinated poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole-imide-amide)s containing various ratios of amide/oxadiazole groups in the repeating unit have been prepared by cyclodehydration of the corresponding poly(hydrazide-imide-amide)s resulting from the reaction of diacid dichlorides incorporating both hexafluoroisopropylidene bridges and imide rings with p-aminobenzhydrazide or with mixtures of certain aromatic diamines and p-aminobenzhydrazide or terephthalic dihydrazide. The new polymers are soluble in polar amidic solvents and can be processed into flexible films by casting from solution. Their glass transition temperatures are in the range 254-325°C and they are thermally stable up to 415-450°C.

    Description / Table of Contents: Blockcopoly(ester-ether) mit verschiedenen ionischen Einheiten wie Sulfobetain (S-Betain), Carbobetain (C-Betain) und Ammoniumtosylat wurden hergestellt und hinsichtlich ihrer Eignung als antistatische Modifikatoren für Polyethylenterephthalat (PET)-Fasern untersucht. Die ionischen Segmente wurden aus N,N-Bis(2-hydroxyethyl)methylamin generiert und statistisch mit den Polyester- und Polyoxyethylen(PEO)-Einheiten cokondensiert. Aus den Copolymeren mit S-Betain-Einheiten wurden im Schmelzspinnverfahren dicke Filamente hergestellt und deren elektrischer Widerstand bestimmt. Abhängig von der Zusammensetzung (25-75 Gew.-% PEO, 1-2 mol-% S-Betain) wurden Widerstände zwischen 108 und 1010 Ω cm-1 gemessen. Die drei copolymerartigen Modifikatoren wurden mit PET durch Blendspinnen gemischt. Die so erhaltenen PET-Fasem zeigen nicht nur gute mechanische sondern auch verbesserte antistatische Eigenschaften. Die Fasern aus dem S-Betain enthaltenden Copolymeren weisen dabei die kürzeste Halbwertszeit des Abbaus der elektrostatischen Ladung auf, obwohl der Oberflächenwiderstand dieses Materials in der Größenordnung 1013 Ω cm-2 dem Wert der mit C-Betain und Ammoniumtosylat hergestellten Fasem ähnlich ist. Die PET-Fasern bewahren ihre guten antistatischen Eigenschften auch nach dem Fäben und wiederholtem Waschen, da sowohl die hydrophilen als auch die ionischen Gruppen an den Polyesterketten fixiert sind.
    Notes: Block copoly(ester-ether)s containing different ionic units, i.e., sulfobetaine (S-betaine), carbobetaine (C-betaine), and ammonium tosylate, were prepared and evaluated as antistatic modifiers of PET fiber. The ionic units were readily derived from N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)methylamine and co-condensed randomly with the polyester and poly(oxyethylene) (PEO) units. For the copolymers containing S-betaine units, a thick filament was melt-spun to evaluate their apparent electric resistivity. Depending on the unit compositions (25-75 wt.-% of PEO and 1-2 mol-% of S-betaine), resistivities ranging from 108 to 1010 Ω cm-1 were obtained. Then, the three copolymer-type modifiers were blended with poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) by the ordinary blend-spinning technique. The blend PET fibers obtained showed not only good mechanical properties, but also improved antistatic properties. Particularly, the fiber blended with the copolymer containing S-betaine units had the shortest half-life time of leakage of static charge, although the surface area resistivity, being in the order of 1013 Ω cm-2, was similar to that of the fibers blended with the copolymers containing C-betaine and ammonium tosylate units. These blend PET fibers were found to retain good antistatic properties even after dyeing and repeated washings, because both the hydrophilic and ionic groups are immobilized with the polyester chains.

    Description / Table of Contents: For radical copolymerizations of α-methylstyrene (MS) with methacrylonitrile (MAN) and of MS with acrylonitrile (AN) studies were carried out to examine postulations of kinetic models known from literature, in particular the terminal model with chain-length-independent and chain-length-dependent depolymerization steps. The results of investigations were based on measurements of the sequence length distributions from 13C-NMR spectra. Analyses of MS/MAN copolymers with various compositions were carried out. Reaction parameters and depolymerization constants depending on temperature were calculated. The values of enthalpy and entropy of polymerization and the ceiling temperature were computed for MS to ΔH = 26,5 ± 0,5 kJ mol-1, ΔS = 95 ± 5 J mol-1 K-1, Tceiling = 65 ± 1°C. The terminal model with depolymerization steps turned out to be wrong for the accurate description of the polymerization behaviour in case of the tested systems. Results clearly show important penultimate effects. At the point of knowledge, the description of the polymerization behaviour in terms of a penultimate model with depolymerization steps are suggested.
    Notes: Für die radikalischen Copolymerisationen von α-Methylstyrol (MS) mit Methacrylnitril (MAN) sowie MS mit Acrylnitril (AN) wurden Untersuchungen zur Prüfung der in der Literatur postulierten kinetischen Modelle des „sequenzlängenunabhängigen“ bzw. „sequenzlängenabhängigen“ Terminalmodells mit Depolymerisationsschritten durchgeführt. Sie basieren auf Analysen der Sequenzverteilungen aus 13C-NMR-Spektren. Resultate von 13C-NMR-Untersuchungen an MS/MAN-Polymeren variabler Zusammensetzung werden vorgestellt. Reaktionsparameter und Gleichgewichtskonstanten wurden direkt aus den Informationen der 13C-NMR-Spektren für das Terminalmodell mit Depolymerisationsschritten in Abhängigkeit von der Reaktionstemperatur der Polymeren bestimmt. Hieraus konnten die Polymerisationsenthalpie ΔH = 26,5 ± 0,5 kJ mol-1, die Polymerisationsentropie ΔS = 95 ± 5 J mol-1 K-1 sowie die Ceilingtemperatur Tceiling = 65 ± 1°C für MS bestimmt werden. Es wurde nachgewiesen, daß im Rahmen der Terminalnäherung auch mit Berücksichtigung von Depolymerisationseinflüssen keine adäquate Beschreibung des Copolymerisationsverhaltens im Falle der untersuchten Systeme möglich ist. Vielmehr konnten als Ergebnis der Untersuchungen sowohl in Copolymeren von MS mit AN als auch mit MAN signifikante Penultimate-Effekte nachgewiesen werden. Aufbauend auf diesen Ergebnissen wird die Anwendung eines auf einer Penultimate-Näherung basierenden Modells, welches auch das Gleichgewicht in den Wachstumsreaktionen von MS berücksichtigt, zur theoretischen Vorhersage des Copolymerisationsverhaltens vorgeschlagen.

    Description / Table of Contents: Ein auf Magnesiumoxid aufgebrachter Polytitazan-Cobalt (III)-Komplex diente als effektiver Katalysator für die Epoxidierung von cis-Cycloocten mit molekularem Sauerstoff bei Normaldruck in Gegenwart von Isobutyraldehyd als Reduktionsmittel. Nach XPS-Untersuchungen wird Cobalt (III) durch den mehrzähnigen Stickstoffliganden des Polytitazans stabilisiert. Bei 25°C beträgt der cis-Cycloocten-Umsatz nach fünf Stunden 95,2%, mit einer Selektivität von 100% für das cis-Cyclohexylenoxid. Der Katalysator Kann mindestens neun Mal ohne Aktivitätsverlust verwendet werden.
    Notes: Magnesium oxide supported polytitazane cobalt (III) complex is demonstrated as an effective catalyst for the epoxidation of cis-cyclooctene with molecular oxygen at atmospheric pressure in the presence of isobutyraldehyde as the sacrificial reductant. XPS data show that the high-valent cobalt (III) is stabilized by the multidentate nitrogen ligand of polytitazane. The conversion of cis-cyclooctene is as high as 95.2% with 100% selectivity to the cis-cyclooctene oxide at 25°C within 5 h. The catalyst can be used at least nine times without loss of its activity.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wird über die Gleichgewichts-Schmelzpunktsdepression von Polycarbonat aus Bisphenol A (PC) in Mischungen mit Poly-∊-caprolacton (PCL) berichtet. Hierzu wird ein Modell entwickelt, das den gekrümmten Verlauf der gemessenen Hoffman-Weeks-Plots zu erklären vermag. Es berücksichtigt die Konzentrationsinhomogenitäten, die mit fortschreitender Kristallisation an der Kristallwachstumsfront entstehen. Die gelegentlich beobachtete Schmelzpunktsdepression der PCL-Komponente wird diskutiert. Der Flory-Hugginssche Wechselwirkungsparameter wird zu -0,09 berechnet; aus diesem kleinen Wert muß geschlossen werden, daß die Mischungspartner enthalpisch nur schwach wechselwirken. Der merkliche Abfall der Glastemperatur des PC nach Einmischen von PCL bewirkt eine beträchtliche Kristallisation aus der Schmelze; es können PC-Kristallinitätsgrade bis zu 25% erreicht werden.
    Notes: It is reported on the equilibrium melting point depression of polycarbonate from bisphenol A (PC) in its blend with poly-∊-caprolactone (PCL). To this end, a model which explains the bended course of the measured Hoffman-Weeks plots is developed which takes into account the composition changes at the crystal growth front upon progressive crystallization. The occasional melting point depression of the PCL component is discussed. The calculated Flory-Huggins parameter of χ12 ≍ -0.09 indicates only weak enthalpic interactions. The remarkable drop in the glass transition temperature of PC with blending allows PC degrees of crystallinity up to 25% upon crystallization from the melt.

Die pulverartigen Hydrogele wurden durch Fällungspolymerisation in Aceton und Diethylether unter Verwendung von N,N′-Methylenbisacrylamid und Ethylendimethacrylat als Vernetzungsmittel synthetisiert. Es wurden die Abhängigkeiten des Quellungsgrades in Wasser, der Größe, des Aggregationsgrades und der spezifischen Oberfläche von Partikeln, und des Inhalts von wasserlöslichen Substanzen in den Hydrogelen von den Bedingungen ihrer Synthese verfolgt. Die Eignung einzelner der synthetisierten Hydrogele für die Herstellung von Silikon-kautschuk-Hydrogel-Kompositen wird diskutiert.

The powdery hydrogels were obtained by precipitation polymerization in acetone and diethyl ether, using N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide and ethylene dimethacrylate as crosslinking agents. Dependences of water-swellability, particle size, aggregation, specific surface and content of the uncrosslinked water-soluble polymers and low-molecular-weight substances in the hydrogels on the conditions of their synthesis were studied. Suitability of particular powdery hydrogels synthesized for the preparation of silicone rubber-hydrogel composites is discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Wirkung von aliphatischem Korrosionsschutzöl auf das Aushärte- und Abbauverhalten eines ölkompatiblen Epoxidharzklebers wurde mittels Differentialkalorimetrie (DSC), Fourier-Transformations-Infrarot-Spektroskopie (FTIR) und Thermogravimetrie (TGA) untersucht. Die Ergebnisse der DSC- und FTIR-Messungen deuten darauf hin, daß die Härtungsgeschwindigkeit des untersuchten Epoxid-Systems durch das Vorhandensein des Öls nur wenig beeinflußt wird. Dennoch bestätigt das Absinken der exothermen Härtungskurve, begleitet von einer Verbreiterung des Glasübergangstemperaturbereichs, daß das Öl den Aushärtemechanismus beeinflussen kann und in der Lage ist, die Struktur des gehärteten Harzes zu verändern. Außerdem geht aus den TGA-Messungen hervor, daß die Temperaturbeständigkeit des Harzes sich in Gegenwart des Öls verschlechtert; dies wird auf Veränderungen in der Struktur und im Abbaumechanismus des Epoxid-Systems zurückgeführt.
    Notes: The effect of aliphatic slushing oil on the curing and degradation behavior of an oil-accommodating epoxy adhesive is studied by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results of FTIR and DSC indicate that the curing rate of the tested epoxy system is little affected in the presence of the oil. However, the decrease of the curing exotherm accompanied with a broadening of the glass transition confirms that the oil can affect the curing mechanisms and may change the structure of the cured resin. Additionally, it is evident from the TGA results that the thermal resistance of the resin deteriorates in the presence of the oil, which is attributed to the changes in the structure and the degradation mechanism of the epoxy system.

Reaction time, temperature and aluminium/nickel molar ratio were optimized in order to achieve maximum activity and selectivity. Conversions higher than 90% were obtained in contrast to other nickel-based systems using phosphine ligands, the resulting polybutadiene showed high cis-1,4 (〈80%) content and only small amount of 1,2-units (2%).

    Description / Table of Contents: Bei der Bestrahlung von Polymethylmethacrylat (PMMA) mit Röntgensynchrotronstrahlung ändert sich die chemische Struktur des Polymeren. Die Ergebnisse der analytischen Untersuchungen dieser Arbeit weisen darauf hin, daß neben einem Abbau der Polymerketten auch einzelne Esterseitengruppen abgespalten werden. Durch die Bestrahlung entstehende Langkettenverzweigungen wurden bei PMMA nicht gefunden. Dadurch unterscheiden sich die physikalischen und chemischen Eigenschaften des bestrahlten Polymeren von denen des unbestrahlten.
    Notes: The irradiation of poly(methyl methacrylate) changes the chemical constitution of the polymer. In addition to a decrease in molar mass further radiation-induced radical reactions cause changes in the chemical constitution of the polymer. Analysis of the reaction products shows that formation of long-chain branching can be excluded. Along with degradation of the chain lengths, ester groups in the side chains are attacked. The result is a modified polymer with a physical and chemical behaviour different from that of the starting polymer.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Zähigkeit von Polyarylaten wurde durch den Einbau von 4,4′-Thiodiphenol und Bisphenol A, die in der wäßrigen Phase einer Grenzflächenpolykondensation vorgelegt wurden, erhöht. Die modifizierten Polyarylate besitzen leicht erniedrigte Zugfestigkeiten und Zugmoduli, aber aufgrund der Flexibilität der eingebauten Segmente stark erhöhte Izod-Schlagzähigkeiten. Darüber hinaus bleiben die guten thermischen Eigenschaften der Polyarylate nach der Modifizierung erhalten, so daß die hergestellten Materialien auch für Anwendungen mit sehr hohen Anforderungen an die thermische Belastbarkeit geeignet sind.
    Notes: The toughness of polyarylates was improved by incorporation of 4,4′-thiodiphenol and bisphenol A, being introduced in the aqueous phase of an interfacial polycondensation reaction. The modified polyarylates possessed slightly lower tensile strength and modulus but much higher Izod impact strength due to the flexibility of the incorporated segments. In addition, the superb thermal properties typical for polyarylates were reserved in the modified polyarylate, thus assuring its broad applicability for those applications where extremely stringent criteria of thermal characteristics are required.

    Description / Table of Contents: The photocrosslinking efficiency of a series of commercial photoinitiators and multicomponent photosensitive systems on uncrosslinked acrylic matrices has been estimated. Copolymers used for this study are tricyclo[5.2.1.02,6]dec-4-en-8-yl acrylate/ethyl acrylate copolymers of variable composition (100/0, 40/60, 20/80, 0/100) synthesized in solution by a free-radical process. The irradiations were carried out at large wavelengths (λ ≥ 310 nm). Systems of benzophenone/benzoyl peroxide led to really fast crosslinking kinetics for 10 min of irradiation.
    Notes: L'efficacité de photoréticulation de toute une série de photoamorceurs commerciaux et de systèmes photosensibles multicomposants a été évaluée sur des matrices acryliques non réticulées. Les polymères utilisés pour cette étude sont des homopolymères et des copolymères d'acrylate de dicyclopentadiène/acrylate d'éthyle de composition variable (100/0, 40/60, 20/80, 0/100) synthétisés en solution par voie radicalaire. Les irradiations ont été effectuées à des grandes longueurs d'ondes (λ ≥ 310 nm). Les systèmes benzophénone/peroxyde de benzoyle ont permis d'obtenir des cinétiques de réticulation très rapides pour des temps d'irradation de 10 min.

    Notes: The critical conditions in which the classical Flory-Stockmayer gelation theory (F-S theory) is applicable to monovinyl-divinyl copolymerizations were pursued in detail. The resulting prepolymers or precursors of ideal crosslinked-polymers were characterized as standard polymers for the discussion of network formation in free-radical monovinyl-divinyl copolymerizations. Methyl methacrylate was copolymerized with a small amount of ethylene dimethacrylate, butylene dimethacrylate or nonapropyleneglycol dimethacrylate in the presence of lauryl mercaptan, a chain transfer agent to reduce the occurrence of a thermodynamic excluded volume effect and intramolecular crosslinking as the primary and secondary factors, respectively, for the greatly delayed gelation in the free-radical monovinyl-divinyl copolymerizations and, moreover, to keep the primary chain length constant by inhibiting a gel effect. The ratio of the actual gel point to the theoretical one reached 1.1, supporting the validity of F-S theory. The resulting prepolymers were subjected to SEC-MALLS analysis to determine the molecular weights, the molecular-weight distributions and the radii of gyration; the correlations of molecular weight vs. elution volume and radius of gyration vs. molecular weight were useful for the characterization of the precursors of ideal network-polymers.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Reaktion von Mesylchlorid mit vernetzten Pullulan-Mikropartikeln wurde untersucht, insbesondere der Einfluß der Reaktionsbedingungen auf das Produktverhältnis Chlordeoxy-/O-Mesylpullulan. In N,N-Dimethylformamid wird vorwiegend Chlordeoxypullulan gebildet, während in Pyridin bei niedrigen Temperaturen der Mesylester das Hauptprodukt ist. In N,N-Dimethylacetamide entstehen Chlordeoxy und Mesylgruppen im Verhältnis 2:1. Durch die Einführung der Chlordeoxy- bzw. Mesylgruppen werden die Mikropartikel hydrophob.
    Notes: The reaction of mesyl chloride with crosslinked pullulan microparticles was investigated, in particular the influence of the reaction conditions on the ratio between the two possible products chlorodeoxy or O-mesyl pullulan. It was found that in N,N-dimethylformamide the preponderent reaction product is chlorodeoxy pullulan, while in pyridine at low temperatures the main product is the mesyl ester of pullulan. In N,N-dimethylacetamide, the substituent groups are both chlorodeoxy and mesyl ones, in about 2:1 ratio. By the introduction of either chlorodeoxy or mesyl groups, the pullulan-crosslinked microparticles become hydrophobic.

    Description / Table of Contents: Poly(4-hydroxybutylacrylat) poly(4-HBA) wurde aus wäßrigem Medium mit Ammoniumpersulfat als Initiator auf Seide (bombyx mori) aufgepfropft. Die Gewichtszunahme stieg proportional mit der Monomerkonzentration im Pfropfsystem. Der Pfropfgrad lag im Bereich von 45 bis 65%. Die Feuchtigkeitsaufnahme nahm bei einer Gewichtszunahme von 〉10% stark ab. Die mechanischen Eigenschaften der Seidenfasern zeigten mit steigender Gewichtszunahme keine wesentliche Änderung. Doppelbrechung und isotroper Brechungsindex nahmen bis zu einer Gewichtszunahme von 35% ab und blieben dann unverändert. Röntgenbeugungsdiagramme zeigten, daß die kristalline Struktur durch die Pfropfbehandlung nicht modifiziert wird. Kalorimetrische (DSC), thermomechanische (TMA) und thermogravimetrische (TG) Analysen ergaben, daß das thermische Verhalten der poly(4-HBA)-gepfropften Seidenfasern nur leicht verändert wird. Die zur Bestimmung des dynamisch-mechanischen Verhaltens der Seidenfasern durchgeführten DMA-Messungen zeigten eine Verschiebung der E′- und E″-Modulspitzen zu niedrigeren Temperaturen mit steigender Gewichtszunahme. Ablagerungen auf der Faseroberfläche der bei einem hohen Monomer/Seide-Verhältnis (〉50%) gepfropften Seide wurden mit Rasterelektronenmikroskopie nachgewiesen.
    Notes: Poly(4-hydroxybutyl acrylate) poly(4-HBA) was graft-copolymerized onto silk fibres (bombyx mori) in aqueous medium with ammonium persulfate as initiator. The weight gain increased with increasing concentration of monomer in the grafting system. The grafting efficiency ranged from 45 to 65%. Equilibrium moisture regain decreased sharply beyond 10% weight gain. The tensile properties of the silk fibres did not change significantly as a function of the increasing weight gain. Birefringence and isotropic refractive index decreased until 35% weight gain and then remained unchanged. The X-ray diffraction patterns showed that the crystalline structure was not affected by grafting. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermomechanical (TMA), and thermogravimetric (TG) measurements showed that poly(4-HBA)-grafted silk fibres underwent only slight changes in the thermal behaviour. The dynamic mechanical measurements (DMA) exhibited a downward shift of both the storage (E′) and loss modulus peak (E″) with increasing weight gain. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations showed the presence of some deposits adhering to the surface of silk fibres grafted at high monomer/silk ratio (〉50%).

    Notes: The template directed synthesis of poly[d(A-T)] from the nucleoside triphosphates in the presence of DNA polymerase I is carried out continuously in a stirred flow reactor for the first time. The initial objective is to test the kinetic stability of the established steady states at various flow rates. Graphical analysis predicts instable steady states for certain high flow rates. As a consequence of instabilities multiple steady states and steady-state hysteresis may occur. Steady-state hysteresis has now been found experimentally. For a different enzyme fraction of low exonuclease activity we found the steady-state absorbance at 260 nm to be almost invariant with flow rate at high enzyme concentrations even if the flow rate was increased by a large factor. We call this phenomenon kinetic buffering. Relaxation of a large flow perturbation approaches the steady state in a sigmoidal fashion. Concentration oscillations at 260 nm occurred in one experiment using an enzyme fraction of low exonuclease activity after perturbing the steady state by monomer (dATP). Advantages of the stirred flow reactor method over serial transfer are discussed.

    Circular dichroism of corticotropin, fragment 1-24, and model compounds. An assessment of the contributions of the peptide chromophore and aromatic residues (1976)

    Notes: The far-ultraviolet circular dichroic spectrum of the 39-residue peptide hormone porcine corticotropin and the biologically active fragment corticotropin 1-24 is negative from 250 nm to 195 nm in water, but in 6M guanidinium chloride a positive band appears at about 225 nm. The temperature and guanidinium chloride dependence of this spectral transition indicates the absence of any stable ordered secondary structure in corticotropin and the spectrum is seen to be in only partial agreement with results using the model peptide chromophore, Ala-Ala-Ala. Using oligopeptides containing aromatic amino acid residues sandwiched between glycyl residues, it is shown that the shape and intensity of the corticotropin 225 nm positive band which appears in 6M guanidinium chloride is in agreement with the far-ultraviolet transitions of the aromatic chromophores in the hormone. Curve resolution of the near-ultraviolet circular dichroic spectrum of corticotropin and comparison of the rotational strengths of the phenylalanyl and tyrosyl bands reveals no evidence for increased rotational freedom in 6M guanidinium hydrochloride. Spectral changes are observed, however, in the transitions arising from the single tryptophan. This study suggests that corticotropin in aqueous solution may serve as a better model for the circular dichroic spectrum of the aperiodic regions in globular proteins than either synthetic homopolypeptides or reference proteins for which spectral and X-ray diffraction data are available.

    Notes: An all-order classical coupled oscillator theory in which monomer band shapes are explicity taken into account is applied to the calculations of polynucleotide circular dichroism. Calculations are shown for ApA and oligoadenylic acid of varying chain lengths, in both RNA and B-DNA geometry, and the advantages of this theory are assessed. By introducing an effective dielectric constant, good agreement with measured spectra is obtained. Variations in monomer parameters are tested in an attempt to eliminate remaining discrepancies between calculated and measured spectra.

In addition, Raman measurements are made on two crystalline forms of hen egg white lysozyme. The spectra obtained from the solution and from the crystal are found to be similar for frequencies above 100 cm-1. However, a low-frequency band at 25 cm-1 observed in crystalline lysozyme is not found in the solution, indicating that this band cannot be attributed to an internal molecular vibration.

    Notes: The adsorption of protein films on polystyrene latex spheres was studied by optical mixing spectroscopy. With this technique, we show that both the hydrodynamic thickness of protein films and their optical density can be measured. Thus, we found that films of the glycoproteins isolated from the human erythrocyte membrane were four times as thick as films of either human serum albumin or bovine serum albumin for about the same surface coverage. This result suggests an end-on orientation for the adsorbed glycoprotein molecules, which is consistent with the model proposed by others for the orientation of these molecules at the surface of the red blood cell itself.

    Notes: Solvent binding to bovine serum albumin in 2-chloroethanol-water mixed solvents of different composition, measured previously by Inoue and Timasheff (Biopolymers (1972) 11, 737-43) is applied to a hydrodynamic study of the solvated protein.From sedimentation and diffusion data, the apparent molecular weight of the solvated protein particle can be calculated, provided an average partial specific volume, computed from the composition of the particle, is introduced in Svedberg's equation. The unsolvated molecular weight of the protein can than be calculated by subtraction of the bound solvent. Further data on the hydrodynamic particle (f/fmin and axial ratio of the equivalent ellipsoid) are readily calculated from these experiments, and reinforce the supposition that 2-chloroethanol is a strong helix-inducing solvent.

Our results show that n varies with time and that this variation is paralleled by changes in the spectrum of methemoglobin. This suggests some form of structural perturbation. The time-dependent value of n is discussed in terms of the observed spectral changes accompanying prolonged equilibration.

    Notes: The nmr titration curves of chemical shifts versus pH were observed for the protons of various histidine-containing di- and tripeptides. With these results, the macroscopic pKa values and the chemical shifts intrinsic to each ionic species were determined by a computer curve-fitting based on a simple acid dissociation sequence. The pKa value of the imidazole ring in N-acetyl-L-histidine methylamide was assumed to represent the intrinsic (or unperturbed) pKa of the imidazole rings of histidine having peptide linkages at both the CO and NH sides. The pKa values of the imidazole rings observed for most di- and tripeptides were reasonably reproduced by simple calculations using the intrinsic value and the perturbations due to the CO2- and NH3+ groups located at various positions. Some other factors affecting the pKa value of the imidazole ring are also discussed.

    Interpretation of hypochromic and hyperchromic intensity changes in the Raman spectra of polypeptides and polynucleotides undergoing transition (1976)

    Notes: The hyperchromic and hypochromic changes in the intensity of the amide-I and amide-III lines of polypeptides and certain ring vibrations of the bases of polynucleotides are shown to be related to similar changes in the lower energy uv absorption bands. The selection rules strictly limit the pairs of excited electronic states that can contribute to the elements of the polarizability matrix. An energy-dependent term in this equation weights the contribution of the pairs of electronic transitions in favor of those involving the lower energy transitions. For both polypeptides and polynucleotides, there is a large hypochromic inensity change in the first π → π* exciton band upon the coil-to-helix transition. Through the selection rules, certain conformationally sensitive Raman lines are shown to derive their intensity predominantly from this band and hence also display hypochromism. Again, through an application of the selection rules, certain Raman lines can be demonstrated to depend predominantly for their intensity upon the n → π* transition, and consequently have the opposite hyperchromic intensity change upon the same conformational transition.

    Notes: Transient electric birefringence experiments have been performed on well-characterized highly monodisperse samples of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). Experiments and calculations are presented that show that the sensitivity and accuracy of the traditional transient electric birefringence technique can be enhanced by several orders of magnitude through the use of a low-powered laser and crystal polarizing optics, signal averaging, and digital data processing. Measurements of the field-free decay of the birefringence yield for the rotational diffusion coefficient, DR = 318 ± 3 sec-1. The length of the rodlike virion, calculated from the Broersma equation with this value of DR and a rod diameter of 15 nm, is 292.5 ± 1.0 nm. Measurements of the growth of the birefringence when an electric field is applied across the sample yield μ2/kT(α∥ - α⊥) = 0.47 ± 0.07, where μ is the permanent dipole moment (assumed parallel to the symmetry axis of the virus) and α∥ - α⊥ is the electrical polarizability anistropy of the virus. Using the value of α∥ - α⊥ measured by O'Konski et al., we then obtain μ = 2.5 × 10-14 esu cm.

    Notes: The high-resolution nmr spectrum of baker's yeast tRNACUALeu, a recently sequenced non-denaturable tRNA, has been compared with the spectra of the native and denatured conformers of the closely related species tRNAUUGLeu. Because of the presence of many common base pairs in the different tRNA's, it is possible to assign most of the low-field resonances to specific secondary-structure base pairs. A comparison of the observed positions of the various resonances with those predicted by a semiempirical ring-current shift theory shows a root-mean-square deviation of 0.14, 0.11, and 0.12 ppm for tRNAUUGLeu (native), and tRNAUUGLeu (denatured), respectively. These results support the ring-current shift theory currently used to interpret the low-field nmr spectra of the tRNA molecules. Differences between the predicted and observed positions of some resonances provide new evidence for higher order effects such as shifts from second nearest neighbors, anomalous shifts exerted by G·U base pairs, and tertiary-structure effects. A model that was previously proposed for the denatured conformer of tRNAUUGLeu is also supported.

    On the application of polyelectrolyte limiting laws to the helix-coil transition of DNA. IV. Dependence of helix stability on the concentration of divalent metal ions (1976)

    Notes: The molecular theory of the previous paper in this series is extended to determine the effect of divalent metal ions on helix stability relative to coil at fixed ionic strength and nucleotide phosphate concentration. Specification of the state of condensed counterions, as well as their concentration, is essential for the solution of this problem, and it is assumed that they translate freely within a thin cylindrical shell close to the polynucleotide. As a function of divalent counterion concentration mB2+ the relative stability of the helix is highly nonlinear. Although the overall trend is that the helix stability increases with addition of divalent metal ion, there is a narrow concentration range for which it decreases slightly. The behavior of the relative stability as a function of mB2+ is determined by the translational degrees of freedom of the counterions, both univalent and divalent, both condensed and uncondensed. Detailed comparison of the theory with data is not given here, but it is pointed out that the calculated values of the relative stability are consistent with the order of magnitude of the observed effect Mg2+ on the melting temperature.

    Notes: The stability constant of the complex of tRNA with 50S subunits of ribosomes was compared in ordinary and heavy water. A considerable effect (about fourfold) was observed, showing the importance of hydrogen bonds in this interaction. In addition, the isotope effect of complementary polynucleotide interaction was measured for two examples. In the case of the binary complex of heptainosinic acid oligomers with poly(C) in the presence of 10-3 M MgCl2, the transfer from ordinary to heavy water gave an increase of the stability constant of about 5%. But in the case of a ternary complex of hexaadenylic acid with poly(U) under the same conditions, the stability constant in D2O increased threefold. The isotope effect depends strongly on magnesium ion concentration and is possibly due to some specific mechanism of magnesium ion complexing involving water molecules.

    Notes: Monte-Carlo calculations of geometric and thermodynamic characteristics of the α-helix and the β-structure of polypeptides have been carried out. To describe a hydrogen bond both the Lippincott-Schroeder and Morse potentials were used. The internal rotation angles ϕ and ψ in the α-helix have been shown to fluctuate in the range of ±7°. The distribution functions on angles ϕ and ψ and on hydrogen bond lengths and angles in the α-helix have been computed and compared with those in myoglobin and lysozyme. Thermodynamic characteristics of the α-helix calculated in different approximations with the two forms of the hydrogen bond potentials have also been compared. The data obtained are close to the experimental values for polypeptides in neutral solution.Some geometric and thermodynamic characteristics of the regular parallel and antiparallel and irregular antiparallel β-structure have been found. In the β-structure the internal rotation angles vary within the interval ±15-20°. An increase in the cross and longitudinal dimensions of the β-structure only slightly influence both the geometric and thermodynamic characteristics.

    Notes: The preparation of the co-oligopeptides of the series H-Gly-Phe-(Gly)n-Trp-Gly-OH (n = 0, 1, 2) and of other free peptides of glycine, L-tryptophan, and L-phenylalanine is reported. The syntheses have been carried out by conventional methods, using N-hydroxysuccinimide esters for the coupling steps. The ultraviolet absorption properties of the free peptides have been investigated in water. No hypo- or hyperchromicity was found for the aromatic chromophores, with the exception of H-Gly-Phe-Trp-OH, which shows a small but significant hypochromicity. The contribution of the peptide bond to the molar absorptivity in the far ultraviolet has been separated from that of the side chain plus the —COO- group by plotting the measured molar absorptivity ∊ of the farthest accessible uv maximum as a function of the number of peptide bonds (nA). The peptide bond contribution proved to be independent of nA in the range nA = 1-5, thus ruling out the onset of helical conformations in the longer chain peptides.

    Notes: The properties of the electron distribution in amides, peptides, and carboxylic acids, obtained from ab-initio molecular orbital calculations using both minimal and extended basis sets have been studied. These properties are discussed in terms of some of the common assumptions made in empirical conformational calculations of biomolecules. In particular, population analyses of 15 compounds in these families were carried out with both the minimal and extended basis sets, and compared with results of CNDO/2 calculations. It is suggested that population analysis is a useful tool for recognizing patterns of charge distributions, and investigating the transferability of parameters of different functional groups. However, its use for providing partial charges for conformational analysis is a questionable procedure.A more detailed analysis of the charge distribution was carried out by calculating the spatial electron distribution in the four compounds, N-methylacetamide, acetic acid, diketopiperazine, and N-acetyl-N′-methylalanine. Both total electron-density maps and differencedensity maps are presented. The properties of the overall shape of the molecule and the atoms in the molecule, are discussed in terms of the former along with three-dimensional shape plots of the total density. The distortion accompanying molecular formation, resulting in such features as the lone pair orbital and “bonding deensities” is discussed in terms of the difference maps. Semiquantitative estimates of the bonding and orbital densities resulting from the integration of the densities are also presented. Finally, one of the novel features of the study is the presentation of three-dimensional surfaces of constant difference densities from which the shapes of the orbitals and bonding densities emerge.

    Notes: The lack of the positive band at around 226 nm in the CD spectra of poly(prolyl-azetidine-2-carbonyl-proline) in trifluoroethanol and of poly(azetidine-2-carbonyl-prolyl-azetidine-2-carboxylic) acid in F3EtOH and water, the hyperchromism of the absorption maximum at about 202 nm, and the extremely small intensity of the Cβ-Pro, Cγ-Pro, and Cβ-Aze signals for the cis peptide bonds in the 13C nmr spectrum of poly(Pro-Aze-Pro) in F3EtOH indicate that both polyproline analogs exist as disordered chains in this solvent, the trans peptide group being maintained. The disordering of the chains is attributed to an increase in the accessible range of ψ due to the reduced dimensions of the square ring of L-azetidine-2-carboxylic acid residue relative to the pyrrolidine ring of proline and to strong interactions of the haloalcohol with the peptide groups of the chains.

    Notes: Two methods for the characterization of protein molecular weights from their diffusion coefficients are discussed. These measurements can be made quickly and reliably at low concentrations using quasielastic light-scattering techniques. First, an empirical calibration of the diffusion coefficient at infinite dilution of denatured random coils against molecular weight is reported. The second method combines the measurement of D0 with the intrinsic viscosity [η]. This D0-[η] relationship proves to be very insensitive to polymers structure or solvent type. The data indicate that the ratio of the hydrodynamic radius measured by viscosity to the hydrodynamic radius measured by diffusion is about 15% smaller than that predicted by theoretical models. The nature of the molecular-weight average obtained for polydisperse systems is defined for a Schulz distribution. These hydrodynamic methods have also been used to demonstrate the presence of chain branching in the glycoprotein ovomucoid. In addition, a method is proposed by which the effective segment length and an excluded volume parameter for random coils may be evaluated for diffusion measurements.

    Notes: The influence of one DNA region on the stability of an adjoining region (telestability) was examined. Melting curves of three block DNA's, d(C15A15)·d(T15G15), d(C20A15)·d(T15G20), and d(C20A10)·d(T10G20) were analyzed in terms of the nearest neighbor Ising model. Comparisons of predicted and experimental curves were made in 0.01 M and 0.1 M sodium ion solutions. The nearest neighbor formalism was also employed to analyze block DNA transition in the presence of actinomycin, a G·C specific molecule. The results show that nearest neighbor base-pair interaction cannot predict the melting curves of the block DNA's. Adjustments in theoretical parameters to account for phosphate repulsion assuming a B conformation throughout the DNA's do not alter this conclusion. Changes in the theoretical parameters, which provide good overall agreement, are consistent with a substantial stabilization of the A·T region nearest the G·C block. The melting temperature T A·T for the average A·T pari in d(C20A10)·d(T10G20), with 10 A·T pairs, appears to be 4°C greater than TA·T for d(C15A15)·d(T15G15) and d(C20A15)·d(T15G20), both with 15 A·T pairs. Actinomycin bound to the G·C end effectively stabilizes the A·T end by 9°C. These results indicate a long-range contribution to the interactions governing DNA stability. A possible mechanism for these interactions will be discussed.

    Notes: Dielectric relaxation studies in the frequency range 100 Hz to 2 MHz of poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) in dioxane have been carried out over a range of concentration 10-4-10-2g/g. The structure of aggregates is analyzed in terms of dipole moment and relaxation time. A critical concentration (≃ 10-3 g/g for the studied molecular weights) has been determined below which the aggregates are found to have linear head to tail type structure. Above the critical concentration a different structure of aggregates is apparent which could not be fully analyzed by these measurements alone. Possible forms of aggregation above the critical concentration are discussed. Formation of long range order which would lead to nematic liquid crystalline phase at higher concentrations has been discussed as one of the possible explanations for the observed behavior above the critical concentration.Maximum length of linear head to tail type aggregates for poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) in dioxane as determined from these results correspond to an α-helix of molecular weight 210,000. A slight difference in the purity of dioxane has been shown to have an influence on the reproducibility of the state of aggregation as well as on the rate of disaggregation on dilution.

    Notes: Racemization in the synthesis of peptide intermediates and their polymers was investigated, using L-amino acid oxidase. The formation of N-hydroxysuccinimide esters from N-protected peptide acids yielded optically pure products in contrast to p-nitrophenyl and pentachlorophenyl active esters. The racemization in the polymerization step was found to be base sensitive. Partially racemized polymer can result from optically homogeneous monomer. Thus, the optical integrity of active monomer species carries no guarantee for that of the polymer.

    Notes: Conformations containing all trans peptide bonds have previously been proposed for N-methylleucine gramicidin-S and (di-N-methylleucine) gramicidin-S based on an evaluation of proton nuclear magnetic resonance parameters in a series of solvents. These gramicidin-S derivatives exhibit full biological activity despite the fact that the proposed solution conformations differ in backbone topology and relative orientation of the Phe and Orn side chains compared to gramicidin-S. The present authors discuss conformations for N-methylleucine gramicidin-S and (di-N-methylleucine) gramicidin-S which incorporate cis peptide bonds at L-Orn-L-N-MeLeu, where the gramicidin-S backbone is essentially retained, and the relative orientation of the Pro, Orn, Val, and Phe side chains correspond to those observed for gramicidin-S. A novel hydrogen-bond arrangement involving one carbonyl group interacting with two peptide protons (1 ←4 and 1 ←5 types) is proposed to stabilize the backbone conformation in the gramicidin-S derivatives. A recent report on the cyclic heptapeptide antibiotic, Ilamycin B1, shows the presence of cis peptide bonds at N-CH3 amino acids, as well as the novel hydrogen-bond arrangement presented above.

    Conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin. The correlation between clotting kinetics and morphology of fibrin polymerized in different solvent media (1976)

    Notes: The morphology of fibrin strongly depends on solvent medium, as shown by clotting experiments carried out in the presence of different salts. The clots were characterized by electron microscopy and spectrophotometric methods; the kinetics of gelation were determined.In the presence of electrolytes which strongly delay clotting, the strands are thin and few branching points are observed; opposite morphological changes are induced by salts which act as accelerating agents. On the basis of this correlation, and of previous data on the structure of fibrin, a kinetic model of the self-assembly process is outlined. It accounts well for the observed solvent effects on the morphology of the network.An important result emerging from our experiments is that the fibers undergo branching prior to gelation. Branching points arise from the defective growth of the fibers; a simple explanation of the occurrence of branching may be obtained by our self-assembly model.

    Notes: The equilibrium between the cis and trans forms of X-Pro peptide bonds can readily be measured in the 13C nmr spectra. In the present paper we investigate how observation of this equilibrium could be used as an nmr probe for conformational studies of flexible polypeptide chains. The experiments include studies by 13C nmr of a series of linear oligopeptides containing different X-L-Pro peptide bonds, with X = Gly, L-Ala, L-Leu, L-Phe, D-Ala, D-Leu, and D-Phe. Overall the study confirms that X-Pro peptide bonds can generally be useful as 13C nmr probes reporting the formation of nonrandom conformation in flexible polypeptide chains. It was found that the cis-trans equilibrium of X-Pro is greatly affected by the side chain of X and the configuration of the α-carbon atom of X. On the basis of these observations some general rules are suggested for a practical applications of the X-Pro nmr probes in conformational studies of polypeptide chains.

    Notes: Random copolymers of L-glutamic acid and ortho-nitrobenzyl-L-glutamate were synthesized with different percentages of nitrobenzyl-L-glutamate, from 3 to 22%. These copolymers were studied by circular dichroism (CD) and potentiometric titrations in aqueous solutions in order to determine the variation of the stability of the secondary structure when the concentration of nitrobenzylglutamate varies in the copolymer. We observed that the stability increases with the concentration of glutamate. Such a stabilization could be due to either side-chain interactions or interactions between the aromatic side chain with the backbone. An intermolecular aggregation was observed when the percentage of nitrobenzylglutamate was sufficently important, but such an aggregation may be avoided if a dioxane/water mixture is used as a solvent.

    Notes: The kinetics of γ-benzyl-L-glutamate NCA's polymerizations in dioxane as solvent are discussed. The partial orders respective to [A], the NCA concentration and [I0], the initial initiator concentration are given; the rate constants are deduced and a mechanism is proposed to justify a rate of polymerization Vp = k[A][I0]2.The dependence of the rate constants on the conformation of the growing chains is demonstrated; the acceleration is attributed to the ordered structures favorable to hydrogen bonding. The kinetics of aging have also been examined and discussed; it is shown that they cannot modify the kinetics of polymerization.The DPn were obtained on the same samples before and after debenzylation; it is proved that at any concentration, DPn ≃ [A0]/[I0].The molecular-weight distributions were obtained by chromatography and a polydispersity lower than 1.3 was deduced for each sample. The trimodal distribution, appearing as soon as [A0]/[I0] is larger than 3, is attributed to the existence of the three structures σ, β, and α. The weight fraction of each of the structures was correlated to the kinetics of polymerization.

    Notes: The crystal structure of native cellulose (Valonia) has been analyzed by electron diffraction. Possible models for the structure were refined by rigid-body least squares methods, which incorporated parameters defining the preferred orientation of the fibrils around their long axes in the cell wall lamellae. The structure was found to consist of an array of chains having the same sense (i.e., parallel), with packing parameters similar to those recently determined by X-ray diffraction. The eight-chain unit cell could be approximated adequately by a two-chain monoclinic unit cell with dimensions a = 8.18 Å, b = 7.84 Å, c = 10.38 Å (fiber axis), and γ = 97.04°; the space group is P21.

    Notes: The coil-to-helix transition temperatures of hydrogen bearing and deuterated poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) in 1,3-dichlorotetrafluoroacetone/H2O and/D2O mixtures, respectively, have been determined. Together with previously obtained data for the conformational transition of this polypeptide in normal and deuterated dichloroacetic acid, these results have been used in an analysis of the effect of deuterium substitution on the intrinsic stability of the α-helical form of poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate). The findings, consistent for both solvent systems, showed that the deuterated polypeptide is some 5% more stable than the normal protonated poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate), while the polypeptide-active solvent interaction enthalpy is also slightly increased by deuterium substitution in the respective molecules. A consideration of available data for poly(β-benzyl-L-aspartate) reveals an anomaly with respect to the present analysis.

    Notes: Transient electric birefringence measurements on poly(L-lysine hydrobromide) in methanol-water mixtures have been carried out at various solvent compositions in the vicinity of the helix-coil transition region (from 87 to 98 vol % methanol). Anomalous birefringence transients were observed between 90 and 95 vol % methanol above a threshold field strength. A distinct difference between the responses to weak and strong electric fields was noticed over a narrow range of the solvent composition. The effects of polymer concentration and temperature on the field-strength dependence of the birefringence were studied at a solvent composition of 90 vol % methanol where the anomalous transients appeared most clearly. The double logarithmic plots of the steady-state specific birefringence versus the square of field strength for different concentrations and temperatures could be superimposed by shifting them horizontally along the abscissa. The threshold field strength which was determined from the shift factor decreased with decreasing concentration. The results provide further evidence that strong electric fields can cause a helix-coil transition in this system under favorable conditions.

    Notes: Derivatives of tetrapeptide sequences considered likely to form β-turns were investigated by the study of their proton magnetic resonances in methanol and in water. Differential broadening of N - H resonances by an added nitroxyl was used to indicate the presence of the sequestered N - H proton expected in β-turn conformations. Transfer of magnetic saturation from solvent water protons to N - H protons was also examined. The evidence is consistent with significant contributions by β-turn-like backbones to the conformational averages in methanol of the sequences Gly-L-Pro-D-Val-Gly, D(or L)-Val-L-Pro-Gly-Gly, and Gly-L-Pro-L-Asn-Gly, but not the sequence Gly-D-Ala-L-Val-Gly. It is suggested that a Type I turn, Likely in Gly-L-Pro-L-Asn-Gly derivatives, is characterized by sequestered N - H protons of both the third and fourth residues. For all of the peptide derivatives, save possibly Ac-L-Val-L-Pro-Gly-Gly-NHNH2, contributions from folded structures in water are not detectable by line-broadening experiments. However, the transfer of saturation experiments may be interpreted as indicating some degree of chain folding in water.

    Notes: In this paper we use probabilistic arguments to derive and discuss the spatial distribution of molecules which are undergoing electrophoresis or centrifugation while at the same time they are switching back and forth between two configurational states. An exact solution is obtained for arbitrary values of the diffusion coefficients of the two isomerizing states. The traditional analytic method of solving this problem, namely, by use of “master equations,” is not completely satisfactory because one can find only the Fourier transform of the solution rather than the solution itself. Our treatment yields the answer one would get if it were feasible to perform the inversion of the Fourier transform.

The success of the synthesis of the peptide having a high-molecular weight, such as octadecapeptide, results from the highest solubility of the tripeptide unit, L-alanyl-L-leucylglycine. The sequential polypeptide having the same tripeptide sequence was also prepared by polycondensation of the tripeptide N-hydroxy-succinimide ester.

    Cooperative disordering of single-stranded polynucleotides through copper crosslinking (1976)

    Notes: The thermal transitions of single-stranded polynucleotides are noncooperative. In contrast, Cu(II) cooperatively disorders the single-stranded helical structures of poly(A) and poly(C), as demonstrated by ORD and UV spectral changes as a function of the Cu2+ activity, and by a dramatic chain-length dependence of the spectral changes. Equilibrium dialysis binding studies indicate that the cooperative disordering is paralleled by a somewhat less cooperative binding process.The difference between the thermal- and Cu(II)-induced transition is explained by the following mechanism. (1) Cu(II) initially binds in a noncooperative fashion to phosphate. (2) The Cu(II) so bound forms a second bond to a nonadjacent base site on the same polymer strand or another strand. These intramolecular and intermolecular crosslinks to the bases are responsible for the disordering. (3) The initial crosslinks formed provide nuclei for the cooperative formation of additional crosslinks, producing cooperative spectral changes paralleled by cooperative binding.A comparison of the spectral and binding transitions indicates that there is appreciable noncooperative binding of copper to phosphate, which produces no spectral changes in the presence of added electrolyte. This comparison also indicates that each copper crosslink disorders several bases. The formation of intermolecular crosslinks is demonstrated by a polymer concentration dependence of the disordering. The formation of intramolecular crosslinks can be deduced from the fact that the “cooperative unit” required to explain the differences between the hexamer, which does not readily form intramolecular crosslinks, and the polymer is considerably larger than the cooperative unit determined from the polymer results.The poly(A) disordering transition is less symmetrical than that of poly(C), particularly at low polymer concentrations. These results, together with other phenomena, are explained by a greater flexibility of poly(A), which favors the formation of small intramolecular loops.

    Influence of ribose 2′-O-methylation on GpC conformation by classical potential energy calculations (1976)

    Notes: Potential energy calculations were employed to examine the effect of ribose 2′-O-methylation on the conformation of GpC. Minimum energy conformations and allowed conformational regions were calculated for 2′MeGpC and Gp2′MeC. The two lowest energy conformations of 2′MeGpC and Gp2′MeC are similar to those of GpC itself. The helical RNA conformation (sugar pucker-C(3′)-endo, ω′ and ω,g-g-, bases-anti) is the global minimum, and a helix-reversing conformation with ω′, ω in the vicinity of 20°, 80° is next in energy. However, subtle differences between the three molecules are noted. When the substitution is on the 5′ ribose (Gp2′MeC), the energy of the helical conformation is less than that of GpC, due to favorable interactions of the added methyl group. When the substitution is at the 3′ ribose (2′MeGpC) these stabilizing interactions are outweighed by steric restrictions, and the helical conformation is of higher energy than for GpC. Furthermore, the statistical weight of the 2′MeGpC g- g- helical region is substantially less than the corresponding weight for Gp2′MeC. In addition, 2′MeGpC′s methoxy group is conformationally restricted to a narrow range centered at 76°. This group has a broadly allowed region between 50 and 175° in Gp2′MeC. These differences occur because the appended methyl group in 2′MeGpC is located in the interior of the helix cylinder, as it would be in polynucleotide, while it hangs unimpeded in Gp2′MeC. These findings suggest that 2′-O-methylation has both stabilizing and destabilizing influences on the helical conformation of RNA. For 2′MeGpC the destabilizing steric hindrance imposed by the nature of the guanine base dominates.

    Notes: The molecular conformations of the linear oligopeptides H-(L-Ala)n-L-Pro-OH, with n = 1,2 and 3, have been investigated. 13C nmr observation of the equilibrium between the cis and trans forms of the Ala-Pro peptide bond indicated the occurrence of nonrandom conformations in solutions of these flexible peptides. The formation of the nonrandom species containing the cis form of the Ala-Pro bond was found to depend on the deprotonation of the carboxylic acid group of proline, the solvent, and the ionic strength in aqueous solution. The influence of intramolecular hydrogen bonding on the relative conformational energies of the species containing the cis and trans Ala-Pro peptide bond was studied by comparison of the peptides H-(Ala)n-Pro-OH with analogous molecules where hydrogen bond formation was excluded by the covalent structure. In earlier work a hydrogen bond between the protonated terminal carboxylic acid group and the carbonyl oxygen of the penultimate amino acid residue had been suggested to stabilize conformations including trans proline. For the systems described here this hypothesis can be ruled out, since the cis:trans ratio is identical for molecules with methyl ester protected and free protonated terminal carboxylic acid groups of proline. Direct evidence for hydrogen bond formation between the deprotonated terminal carboxylic acid group and the amide proton of the penultimate amino acid residue in the molecular species containing cis proline was obtained from 1H nmr studies. However, the cis:trans ratio of the Ala-Pro bond was not affected by N-methylation of the penultimate amino acid residue, which prevents formation of this hydrogen bond. Overall the experimental observations lead to the conclusion that the relative energies of the peptide conformations including cis or trans proline are mainly determined by intramolecular electrostatic interactions, whereas in the molecules considered, intramolecular hydrogen bonding is a consequence of specific peptide backbone conformations rather than a cause for the occurrence of energetically favored species. Independent support for this conclusion was obtained from model consideration which indicated that electrostatic interactions between the terminal carboxylic acid group and the carbonyl oxygen of the penultimate amino acid residue could indeed account for the observed relative conformational energies of the species containing cis and trans proline, respectively.

    Notes: A method is described for predicting and solving crystal structures of linear homopolysaccharides. The method is based on the refinement of the structure with respect to either stereochemical constraints or x-ray diffraction intensities. In the refinement process, all conformational and packing features of the molecule, such as bond lengths, bond angles, conformational angles, nonbonded contacts, hydrogen bonds, etc., can be allowed to vary until the structure reaches both a conformation and crystalline packing that are in minimum disagreement with the stereochemical restraints and the diffraction data. In this fashion, both packing and conformational features of the structure can be simultaneously refined, and not separately as has been the custom in the past. The refinement procedure is based on a method of constrained optimization which possesses improved characteristics of reaching a solution and avoiding false minima, in comparison with least squares methods. The procedure is, in addition, capable of easily finding molecules of solvent of crystallization. The method was applied to further refining the previously solved crystal structure of V-amylose. The results indicated that contrary to the previously found six-fold molecular symmetry in the P212121 space group, the V-amylose molecule exhibits only two-fold symmetry with the asymmetric unit consisting of three glucose residues in one-half turn of the helix. The three residues are nonequivalent principally due to unequal rotational positions of the hydroxymethyl groups. The crystal structure of V-amylose predicted from stereochemical refinement was identical in all details with that obtained from refining against X-ray data. The excellent agreement with the diffraction data was indicated by the crystallographic disagreement index R = 0.25.

    Notes: In order to obtain information about the conformational features of a 2′-O-methylated polyribonucleotide at the nearest neighbor level, a detailed nuclear magnetic resonance study of AmpA was undertaken. AmpA was isolated from alkali hydrolysates of yeast RNA, and proton spectra were recorded at 100 MHz in the Fourier transform mode in D2O solutions, 0.01 M, pH 5.4 and 1.5 at 25°C. 31P spectra were recorded at 40.48 MHz. Complete, accurate sets of nmr parameters derived for each nucleotidyl unit by simulation iteration methods.The nmr data were translated into conformational parameters for all the bonds using procedures developed in earlier studies from these laboratories. It is shown that AmpA exists in aqueous solution with a flexible molecular framework, which shows preferences for certain orientations. The ribose rings exist as a 2E ⇄ 3E equilibrium with the  - pA ribose showing a bias for the 3E pucker. The C(4′) - C(5′) bonds of both nucleotidyl units show significant preference (75-80%) to exist in gg conformation. The dominant conformer (80%) about C(5′) - O(5′) of the 5′-nucleotidyl unit is g′g′. Even though an unambiguous determination of the orientation of the 3′-phosphate group cannot be made, tentative evidence shows that it preferentially occupies g+ domains [O(3′) - P trans to C(3′) - C(2′)] in which the H(3′)  - C(3′) - O(3′) - P(3′) dihedral angle is about 31°. There is reasonable evidence that the 2′-O-methyl preferentially occupies the domain in which the O(2′) - CH3 bond is trans to C(2′) - C(1′).Lowering of pH to 1.5, which results in protonation of both the adenine moieties, causes destacking of AmpA. Such destacking is accompanied by small, but real, perturbations in the conformations about most of the bonds in the backbone.A detailed comparison of the solution conformations of ApA and AmpA clearly shows that 2′-O-methylation strongly influences the conformational preference about the C(3′) - O(3′) bond of the 3′-nucleotidyl unit, in addition to inducing small changes in the overall ribophosphate backbone conformational equilibria. The effect of 2′-O-methylation is such that the C(3′) - O(3′) is forced to occupy preferentially the g+ domain rather than the normally preferred g- domain [O(3′) - P trans to C(3′) - C(4′)] in ApA. The data on ApA and AmpA further reveal that the extent of stacking interaction is less in AmpA compared to ApA.It is suggested that stacked species of AmpA exist as right-handed stacks where the magnitude of ω and ω′ about O(5′) - P and P - O(3′) is about 290°. The reason for the lesser degree of stacking in AmpA compared to ApA is intramolecular interaction between 2′-O-methyl and the flexible O(3′) - P - O(5′) bridge, the interaction causing some perturbation in the magnitudes of ω/ω′, causing destacking. The destacking will lead to an increase in χCN by a few degrees, causing an increase in 2E populations; the latter in turn will shift the 3′ phosphate group from g- to g+ domains. In short, a coupled series of conformational events is envisioned at the onset of destacking, made feasible by the interaction between the 2′-O-methyl group and the swivel O(3′) - P - O(5′) bridge.

    Notes: The binding isotherms of sodium decyl sulfate to poly(L-ornithine), poly(D,L-ornithine), and poly(L-lysine) at neutral pH were determined potentiometrically. The nature of a highly cooperative binding in all three cases suggests a micelle-like clustering of the surfactant ions onto the polypeptide side groups. The hydrophobic interaction between the nonpolar groups overshadows the coulombic interaction between the charged groups. The titration curves can be interpreted well by the Zimm-Bragg theory. The average cluster size of bound surfactant ions is sufficiently large to promote the β-structure of (L-Lys)n even at a very low binding ratio of surfactant to polypeptide residue, whereas the onset of the helical structure for (L-Orn)n begins after about 7 surfactant ions are bound to two turns of the helix. The CD results are consistent with this explanation.

    Notes: The synthesis of a cross-linked polypentapeptide (an insoluble product) by means of a cross-linking reaction between a lysine-containing (1%) polypentapeptide and a glutamic acid-containing (2%) polypentapeptide is described, following description of the synthesis and polymerization of the corresponding pentapeptide p-nitrophenyl esters. The pentapeptide p-nitrophenylesters - H-Val1-Pro2-Gly3-Val4-Gly5-ONp, H-Val1-Pro2-Gly3-Lys4(ε-Z)-Gly5-ONp, and H-Val1-Pro2-Gly3-Glu4-Gly5-ONp - prior to polymerizing and the polypentapeptides prior to cross-linking were analyzed by proton and carbon-13 magnetic resonance. The cross-linking reaction was achieved in the coacervate state by intermolecular primary amide bond formation. The coupling reagent was a water-soluble carbodiimide (1-cyclohexyl-3-(2-N-methylmorpholinoethyl)-carbodiimide-p-toluenesulfonate).

    Notes: It is concluded on the basis of comparison of polyelectrolyte theory with published data that the mean phosphate spacing b along the contour axis of an unfolded polynucleotide single strand is in the range 3-4 Å (polyelectrolyte parameter ξ ≈ 2), regardless of temperature, base composition, or extent of stacking. This result is consistent with the low-angle X-ray scattering measurements of Gulik, Inoue, and Luzzati on poly(C). No conclusion may be drawn from this value of b concerning the structure of the chain skeleton or the spatial arrangement of the bases other than that the chain is far from an all-trans local conformation (for which b would be about 6-7 Å, the length of a nucleotide unit). The structural implications, or lack thereof, are discussed in detail in the following paper.

    Notes: The technique of intensity correlation light-scattering spectroscopy has been used to accurately determine the extent of physical swelling of lysozyme, ribonuclease, and chymotrypsinogen produced by thermal denaturation. The change in hydrodynamic radius is deduced from direct measurements of the diffusion coefficient, carried out in the temperature range 20° to 70°C at various values of pH in the range 1.0 to 3.0 at ionic strengths of from 0.01 M to 0.2 M. An average radius increase of 18% is observed for lysozyme and ribonuclease, with an estimate of 26% for chymotrypsinogen. Analysis of the pH dependence of the transition temperature leads to the conclusion that the lysozyme charge increases by approximately +2e during unfolding. We have applied this value of the charge increase along with the 18% average radius increase to estimate the electrostatic contribution to the free-energy change for denaturation of lysozyme. The results are consistent with the experimental observation that the transition temperature is nearly independent of ionic strength.

    Notes: The normal vibration frequencies of poly(L-alanine) and poly(L-alanylglycine) in the antiparallel chain-pleated sheet structure have been calculated, using the force field for polyglycine I from the previous paper (Biopolymers 15, 2439-2464) plus additional force constants for the methyl group. The agreement with observed ir and Raman bands is very good. This substantiates the excellent transferability of the force field, since polyglycine I was shown to have a rippled-sheet structure. The amide I and amide II mode splittings are very well accounted for by transition dipole coupling, showing that subtle structural differences are sensitively manifested through this mechanism.
