    Notes: Summary A new statistical test has been developed to detect selection on silent sites. This test compares the codon usage within a gene and thus does not require knowledge of which genes are under the greatest selection, that there exist common trends in codon usage across genes, or that genes have the same mutation pattern. It also controls for mutational biases that might be introduced by the adjacent bases. The test was applied to 62 mammalian sequences, the significant codon usage biases were detected in all three species examined (humans, rats, and mice). However, these biases appear not to be the consequence of selection, but of the first base pair in the codon influencing the mutation pattern at the third position.

    Description / Table of Contents: In this part properties and efficiency of the developed model1,2 are discussed. A variation of the parameters shows that vigorous effects are caused by the effective aggregation. All calculations show that at low conversion there are little temporal steps between the sequential aggregation steps. In the range of 5% to 20% conversion the velocity of aggregation decreases and the aggregative stability agrees with experiences given in the literature. It is shown that the calculated results are in agreement with the experimental results and therefore the presented model is a suitable possibility to describe the formation of some PVC-morphology properties.
    Notes: In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden die Eigenschaften des früher1,2 entwickelten Modells untersucht und diskutiert. Die Variation der Modellparameter zeigt einen großen Einfluß der Aggregationsprozesse auf die Subkornmorphologie. Bei niedrigen Monomerumsätzen ist das Zeitintervall zwischen zwei aufeinanderfolgenden Aggregationsschritten sehr klein, so daß für das Teilchenwachstum die Geschwindigkeit der Aggregation der Unterstrukturen entscheidend ist. Im Bereich zwischen 5% und 20% Monomerumsatz sinkt die Aggregationsgeschwindigkeit sehr stark, so daß für das Teilchenwachstum zunehmend die Polymerisationsreaktion an Bedeutung gewinnt. Aggregative Stabilität wird nach dem Modell für einen Teilchengrößenbereich erhalten, der sich in Übereinstimmung mit experimentellen Daten aus der Fachliteratur befindet. Die berechneten Teilchengrößen entsprechen ebenfalls den in der Literatur publizierten experimentellen Werten, so daß das Modell eine gute Grundlage für die Beschreibung einiger morphologisch bestimmter Polymereigenschaften bildet.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wurden unidirektionale Verbundwerkstoffe aus Novolakharz mit Kohlenstoff-Fasern gemäß der Prepreg-Methode verarbeitet. Das Novolakharz wurde durch Polymerisation von Phenol mit Formaldehyd (Mol-Verhältnis 1 : 0,82) und Oxalsäure als Katalysator (1,5 Gew.-% von Phenol) hergestellt. Die Härtung des Novolakharzes wurde mit Hexamethylentetramin (Hexa) durchgeführt, während das geeignete Verhältnis durch die IR-Spektroskopie bestimmt wurde.Es wurden Proben aus Novolak/Hexa (Gew.-Verhältnis 14: 1), verstärkt mit kommerziellen Kohlenstoff-Fasern, unter verschiedenen Bedingungen (z. B. verschiedene thermische Programme und verschiedene Verhältnisse von Novolakharz : Kohlenstoff-Fasern) hergestellt. Die mechanischen Eigenschaften der hergestellten Proben (wie Biegefestigkeit, Zugfestigkeit, usw.) wurden bestimmt, und ihre Struktur wurde mit Hilfe der Elektronenmikroskopie untersucht.Mit zunehmendem Volumenverhältnis der Kohlenstoff-Fasern werden nicht nur alle mechanischen Eigenschaften des verstärkten Materials verbessert, sondern auch sein Nutzungsgrad nimmt zu, und die Herstellungsbedingungen üben einen größeren Einfluß aus. Die mit dem gleichen Verhältnis von Kohlenstoff-Fasern (z. B. 15 Vol.-%) hergestellten Proben weisen mit zunehmendem Härtungsgrad des Novolaks verbesserte mechanische Eigenschaften auf. Der Häirtungsgrad des Novolaks während der Anfangsphase (Gel-Zeit) als auch während der Endphase (Nachhärtung) kann mit Hilfe der IR-Spektren des härtenden Novolaks verfolgt werden, während der Härtungsgrad der Zwischenphase nur indirekt aus den Werten der mechanischen Eigenschaften der entsprechenden Proben bestimmt werden kann.Aus der Korrelation zwischen den Herstellungsparametern und den mechanischen Eigenschaften der Proben ergeben sich optimale Bedingungen für die Verarbeitung in der Wärmepresse zur Herstellung von mit Kohlenstoff-Fasern verstärkten Novolakharzen (1. Phase: T1 = 125-145°C, t1 = 20 min - 1 h, ohne Druck; 2. Phase: T2 = 180-195°C, t2 = 40 min, P2 ≃ 1,5 kN /cm2).
    Notes: Unidirectional composite materials of novolac resin with carbon fibers were fabricated according to the prepreg method. Novolac resin was prepared by polymerization of phenol with formaldehyde (mole ratio 1 : 0.82) in the presence of oxalic acid as catalyst (1.5 wt.-% to phenol). The curing of novolac resin was performed with hexamethylenetetramine (hexa), while the appropriate proportion was determined by using the IR-spectroscopy.Specimens of novolac/hexa (weight ratio 14:1) reinforced with carbon fibers commercially available were fabricated under different conditions (e.g. different thermal programs and different proportions of novolac/carbon fibers). The mechanical properties of the fabricated specimens (like flexural strength, tensile strength, etc.) were determined and their structure was examined by scanning electron microscopy.By increasing the volume proportion of carbon fibers, not only all mechanical properties of the composite material were increased, but also their degree of utilization was increased and also the production conditions had greater influence. Concerning the specimens produced by the same proportion of carbon fibers (e.g. 15 vol.-%) their mechanical properties were improved by increasing the curing of novolac. The degree of curing of novolac during the initial phase (gel time) and during the ultimate phase (post-curing) can be followed with the aid of IR-spectra of the cured resin, while the degree of curing for the intermediate phase can be obtained only indirectly from the values of the mechanical properties of the corresponding specimens.From the correlation between the production parameters and the mechanical properties of the samples the optimal conditions for processing of the thermopress for the manufacture of carbon fiber reinforced novolac were concluded (1. phase: T1 = 125-145°C, t1 = 20 min - 1 h, without pressure; 2. phase: T2 = 180-195°C, t2 = 40 min, P2 ≃ 1,5 kN/cm2).

    Description / Table of Contents: In dieser Arbeit interessieren wir uns für den Einfluß von Konzentration und Temperatur auf den elektrischen Widerstand eines Butyl-Kautschuks (IIR), der mit zwei Typen von Ruß (Hoch-Abrasion-Schmelzofen-Ruß (HAF) und Schnell-Extrusion-Hochofen-Ruß (FEF)) versetzt ist. Ergebnis war, daß die Leitfähigkeit bei niedrigem Rußgehalt hauptsächlich durch thermische Aktivierung der Ladungsträger erreicht wird. Bei mittleren Konzentrationen überwiegt der Tunnel-Mechanismus bei niedriger Temperatur, gefolgt von der thermischen Aktivierung bei relativ hoher Temperatur. Dies gilt für beide Rußarten. Das metallartige Verhalten bei Gemischen mit hoher Rußkonzentration kann sowohl der thermischen Ausdehnung der Tunnelwege zwischen Kohlenstoff-Agglomeraten als auch dem Zusammenbruch der Kohlenstoff-Agglomerate bei steigender Temperatur zugeschrieben werden.
    Notes: In this study we are interested in the effect of concentration and temperature on the electrical resistivity of butyl rubber (IIR) loaded with two types of carbon black, (namely, high abrasion furnace black (HAF), and fast extrusion furnace black (FEF)). It was found that the conductivity at low carbon black concentrations is mainly achieved by thermal activation of carriers. Tunneling mechanism at low termperature followed by thermal activation at relatively high temperature is found to be predominant for moderate concentrations for both carbon blacks. The metal-like behaviour which was observed in highly loaded compounds was attributed to both, the thermal expansion of the tunneling paths between carbon-carbon agglomerates and the breakdown of carbon agglomerates with temperature.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Arbeit beschreibt die Synthese von Halogenderivaten des Phenylglycidylethers und die Möglichkeiten der Verwendung von diesen Komponenten als Flammverzögerer und reaktive Verdünnungsmittel für Epoxidharze.Mit Hilfe der Nelder-Mead-Simplexmethode wurden die besten Reaktionsbedingungen gefunden. Die so hergestellten Produkte zeichnen sich durch eine hohe Qualität aus und wurden mit einem niedermolekularen Epoxidharz gemischt und mit Diaminodiphenylmethan gehärtet.Die Viskosität von Harzgemischen und die Brennbarkeit der gehärteten Systeme wurden untersucht. Mit dem erhöhten Gehalt an Halogen (Chlor oder Brom) steigt die Viskosität, und die Brennbarkeit der Epoxide wird reduziert.
    Notes: This study deals with the synthesis of halogenated derivatives of phenyl glycidyl ether and with possibilities of their use as flame retardants and reactive diluents of epoxy resin.The best reaction conditions optimized by Nelder-Mead simplex method were found. The products of very high quality were prepared. They were mixed with a lowmolecular epoxy resin and cured by diamino diphenyl methane.The viscosity of the resin mixtures and limiting oxygen index of cured systems were determined. It was found that a higher content of halogen, both chlorine and bromine, causes increasing viscosity and reduced flammability of the epoxides.

    Description / Table of Contents: Durch Messungen von Tg, Tm und Tc (Trübungspunkt) wurden Phasendiagramme der vier verträglichen Polymermischungen von chlorierten isotaktischen Polypropylenen (Chlorgehalt 39,2 (CPP-40) und 49,8 Gew.-% (CPP-50)) mit Poly(ethylen-co-vinylacetat)en (Vinylacetatgehalt 40 (EVA-40) und 45 Gew.-% (EVA-45)) untersucht. Von den vier Mischungspaaren war die Mischung von CPP-50 mit EVA-40 am besten verträglich.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Synthese und Charakterisierung von Kationenaustauschmembranen aus PE-PS-DVB-Interpolymeren für die Elektrolyse von Borax-Lösung zur Erzeugung von Borsäure und Natronlauge wurden durchgeführt und mit den Eigenschaften von im Handel erhältlichen Membranen („Nafion 324“ und „Permaplex C-20“) verglichen.
    Notes: The synthesis and the characterization of the PE-PS-DVB interpolymer cationexchange membranes in the electrolysis of borax solutions to produce boric acid and sodium hydroxide simultaneously was carried out. The characterization of the teflon based “Nafion 324” and polystyrene-DVB based “Permaplex C-20” membranes was also performed in the same system for comparison.The DVB contents were varied between 3 - 12% (by wt. in total monomers) and the increase of the cross-links resulted in the decrease of the water contents and ionexchange capacities of the membranes. The PE present in the membrane acted as a barrier for electroosmotic water transport. The membranes with high DVB contents showed better electrolysis performance due to their low water contents and low electroosmotic water transport properties. The use of the interpolymer membrane containing 11.6% DVB resulted in high current efficiency and high sodium cation dynamic transport number and worked satisfactorily at the process conditions of borax electrolysis.

    Description / Table of Contents: Aus Rizinusöl und difunktionellen Säuren, wie Oxal-, Malon-, Bernstein-, Glutar-, Adipin-, Suberin- und Sebacinsäure, wurden Prepolyester hergestellt. Diese Prepolyester (PPE) wurden anschließend mit Methylmethacrylat und 1% Ethylenglykoldimethacrylat als Vernetzer interpenetriert. Die Polymerisation wurde radikalisch mit Benzoylperoxid gestartet. Die neuen PPE/Polymethylmethacrylat (PMMA)-interpenetrierenden Netzwerke wurden als Pulver erhalten. Sie wurden durch ihr Löseverhalten, IR-Spektroskopie und ihr thermisches Verhalten charakterisiert.
    Notes: Prepolyesters were obtained from castor oil and dibasic acids, viz oxalic, malonic, succinic, glutaric, adipic, suberic and sebacic acid. These prepolyesters (PPE) were subsequently interpenetrated with methyl methacrylate containing 1% ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as crosslinker by radical polymerization initiated with benzoyl peroxide. The novel PPE poly(methyl methacrylate) PPE/PMMA interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) were obtained as powder. They were characterized by solubility behaviour, IR spectral study and thermal behaviour.

    Description / Table of Contents: 2,4-Ionen, ein polymeres quartäres Ammoniumsalz, wurde auf einem makroporösen chlormethylierten Poly(Styrol-co-Divinylbenzol)-Harz (XAD-2) immobilisiert. Der Ionen-Gehalt des Harzes, der durch CHN-Elementaranalyse bestimmt wurde, betrug 50,2 g/kg Harz. Der wichtigste Nebeneffekt des modifizierten Harzes, das Ausbluten des Katalysators 2,4-Ionen, kann durch eine spektrophotometrische Methode, die extrem geringe Konzentraionen an freiem Ionen an der Oberfläche des Harzes messen kann, ermittelt werden.Die Aktivität der immobilisierten 2,4-Ionen/Kobalt(II)-phthalocyanin-tetranatriumsulfonat-Komplexe in bezug auf die oxidative Kupplung von Thiolen ist viel niedriger als im homogenen Fall, aber noch beträchtlich höher als im polymerfreien System. Die beobachtete Abnahme der Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit resultiert nicht aus Behinderungen des Massentransports, sondern vorzugsweise aus den Katalysatoreigenschaften wie z. B. einem sehr niedrigen N+/Co-VerhtUtnis. Die aktiven Zentren scheinen nur in der äußeren Hiille der Harzpartikel vorhanden zu sein.
    Notes: A poly(quaternary ammonium) salt, 2,4-ionene, has been immobilized on a macroporous chloromethylated poly(styrene-divinylbenzene) resin (XAD-2). The ionene content of the resin, determined by CHN elemental analysis, was 50.2 g/kg resin. The most important side effect of the modified resin, catalyst (2,4-ionene) bleeding, can be detected by a spectrophotometric method capable of determining extremely low concentrations of free ionene in the supernatant of the resin.The activity of these immobilized 2,4-ionene/cobalt(II)phthalocyanine-tetrasodiumsulfonate (CoTSPc) complexes towards the oxidative coupling of thiols is much lower than in the homogeneous case, but still considerably higher than for the polymer free system. The observed decrease in reaction rate does not originate from the considerable mass transfer resistances but predominantly from catalyst properties like a very low local N+/Co ratio. The active sites appear to be present in the outer shell of the resin particles only.

    Description / Table of Contents: Röntgendiffraktometrische Untersuchungen und DSC-Messungen an Blend-Filmen, die aus Lösungen von PEEK und PES hergestellt wurden, zeigen eine Phasenseparation bei den Filmen, die bei 340°C hergestellt wurden. Das Kristallisationsverhalten von Filmen, die bei 340°C hergestellt, anschließend abgeschreckt und bei 180°C getempert wurden, ist identisch mit dem von PEEK. Filme, die bei 300°C hergestellt wurden, kristallisierten erst durch Tempern bei 250°C. Blockcopolymere, die aus Oligomeren von PEEK und PES erhalten wurden, unterscheiden sich in dieser Hinsicht von Blends der gleichen Zusammensetzung. Die Glastemperatur von Copolymeren mit einem PEEK-Gehalt von mehr als 50% liegt höher als die von PEEK selbst, während der Schmelzpunkt dieser Copolymeren niedriger als der von PEEK ist.
    Notes: Polymer blends of PEEK with PES were prepared by the solution blending method. Copolymers composed of PEEK and PES components were synthesized from these oligomers. The formation conditions exerted an influence over the molecular aggregation and the crystallization behaviors of the blend films and block copolymers which were examined by X-ray diffractometry and DSC analysis. As a result, phase-separation in the blend films was found when the formation temperature was high. The blend films formed at 340°C, quenched and annealed at 180°C, exhibited the same crystallization behavior as those of PEEK. In the case of the blend films formed at 300°C, the annealing of the films at 250°C was required to crystallize the blend films. The Tg of a copolymer with a PEEK component content of more than 50% tends to shift toward a higher temperature than the Tg of PEEK itself, and the Tm of the copolymer toward a lower temperature than that of PEEK ist.

    Description / Table of Contents: Entgegengesetzte Ladungen wurden durch tertiäre Amin- und Carboxylgruppen in Polyurethan (PU) und Polystyrol (PS) eingeführt, um durch gemeinsame Massepolymerisation ein interpenetrierendes PU/PS Polymernetzwerk (IPN) zu erhalten. Vier IPNs wurden hergestellt: ein Voll-IPN, zwei Semi-IPNs und ein lineares Blend. Die Wirkung der geladenen Gruppen auf die mechanischen Eigenschaften und die Morphologie der vier Polymermischungen wurde untersucht.Es wurde gefunden, daß PU/PS IPNs mit geladenen Gruppen keine Phasenseparation und somit homogene Verteilung aufweisen, was durch elektronenmikroskopische (SEM) Aufnahmen nachgewiesen wurde. Dynamisch-mechanische Messungen zeigen, daß die Übergangspeaks des Verlust-Moduls E″ in die Mitte zwischen den beiden Übergangspeaks der beiden Komponenten ohne geladene Gruppen liegen. Dies ist von der Zunahme des Gehaltes an geladenen Gruppen abhängig. Gleichzeitig nimmt der Speichermodul E′ in einer Stufe ab, was im Gegensatz zu der zweistufigen Abnahme bei Proben ohne Ladungsträger steht.Die Zugfestigkeit nimmt in allen vier Polymermischungen mit der Zunahme an Acrylsäure (AA) in Poly(Styrol-Acrylsäue) PSAA zu, was in dem PU/PSAA Voll-IPN besonders deutlich wird.
    Notes: Opposite charges, namely tertiary amine and carboxyl groups, were introduced into polyurethane (PU) and polystyrene (PS), respectively, to prepare PU/PS interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) by means of simultaneous bulk polymerization. Four IPNs were synthesized: a full-IPN, two semi-IPNs and a linear blend. The effect of charge groups on the mechanical properties and morphology of the four polymer alloys was investigated.It is found that the PU/PS IPN which was incorporated with charge groups is free of any phase-separation, and sufficiently uniformly distributed, as can be seen from the corresponding scanning electron microscopy (SEM) photographs. Dynamic mechanical analysis indicates that the transition peak of the loss modulus E″ will move towards the centre between the two transition peaks of both components in the absence of charge groups, as a function of an increase in the contents of the opposite charge groups. Meanwhile the storage modulus E′ will decrease in a single-stage way from the previous two-stage mode.The tensile strength in all the four polymer alloys increased markedly along with an increase in the contents of acrylic acid (AA) in the poly(styrene-acrylic acid) (PSAA), which clearly can be seen for the PU/PSAA full-IPN.

    Description / Table of Contents: Pyrolysis behaviour and coke characteristics of different precursors for carbon processing: thermosetting resins (resol, novolak), hydrolytic lignin, pitch, tar as well as their blends were studied using differential thermal analysis (DTA) and X-ray diffraction techniques. The blends novolak-pitch, resol-tar and resol-hydrolytic lignin show a higher coke yield after carbonisation up to 1000°C compared to the corresponding individual substances. A good correlation between the integral procedural decomposition temperature T*A of the investigated precursors and their coke yield is found.
    Notes: Mittels Thermo- und Röntgenstrukturanalyse wird eine vergleichende Untersuchung des Pyrolysevorganges und der Mikrostruktur des aus zwei Gruppen organischer Bindemittel und deren Mischungen gewonnenen Koksrückstandes durchgeführt. Gruppe I umfaßt reine und mit Hydrolyselignin gefüllte Resol- und Novolak-Phenol-Formaldehydharze und Gruppe II Steinkohlenpech und -teer. Es wird festgestellt, daß sich die Mischungen Novolakharz-Pech, Resolharz-Teer und Resolharz-Hydrolyselignin beim Erhitzen nicht wie mechanische Gemische verhalten und eine erhöhte Ausbeute an Koksrückstand liefern. Weiterhin wird gefunden, daß die integrale Endtemperatur der Pyrolyse (T*A) dieser Substanzen als quantitatives Maß für die Ausbeute an Koksrückstand im Anschluß an die Carbonisierung der Proben dienen kann.

    Notes: The paper describes the successful synthesis of silicon containing bismaleimide resin 4,4′-carbo(4,4′-bismaleimido phenoxy)diphenyl silane. The char yield of the bismaleimide resin in N2 atmosphere was found to be 55% at 800°C. Chain extension of bismaleimide with 4,4′-diamino diphenyl sulfone reduced the char yield and thermal stability.

    Description / Table of Contents: As hard blocks in polyether block amides, polyamides are used whose length is intensively regulated by dicarboxylic acids. Since, with regard to melting and crystallization behaviour, this acid constitutes an interfering structural unit in the chain, and in the case of a completely converted product each chain contains one acid molecule, it is essential to know where in the chain incorporation will occur. As opposed to monofunctional chain regulators which always form a chain end, a bifunctional chain regulator can a priori also be randomly incorporated into the inner part of the chain. This leads to a far greater interference than occurs if the chain regulator molecule and the chain end, which acts as an interfering unit in any case, coincide with each other.By means of adipic acid-regulated oligoamides based on lauryl lactam, the incorporation of the chain regulator was examined by NMR spectroscopy and compared with model calculations. This resulted in a close match only if it was presupposed that the incorporation was carried out randomly with the same degree of probability at any point whatsoever between two lauryl lactam structural units or at the chain end.Further calculations illustrate the effects of the incorporation of the chain regulator on the size of the amorphous portion.
    Notes: Als Hartblöcke in Polyetherblockamiden werden durch Dicarbonsäuren stark geregelte Polyamide eingesetzt. Da die Säure in Hinblick auf das Schmelz- und Kristallisationsverhalten einen Störbaustein in der Kette darstellt und bei einem ausgeregelten Produkt jede Kette ein Säuremolekül enthält, ist es von Bedeutung zu wissen, wo in der Kette der Einbau erfolgt. Anders als bei monofunktionellen Reglern, wo der Regler stets ein Kettenende bildet, kann ein bifunktioneller Regler a priori auch statistisch im Inneren der Kette eingebaut werden. Dies führt zu einer viel stärkeren Störung, als wenn das Reglermolekül und das sowieso als Störstelle wirkende Kettenende zusammenfallen. Anhand adipinsäuregeregelter Oligoamide auf Basis von Laurinlactam wird kernresonanzspektroskopisch der Einbau des Reglers untersucht und mit Rechnungen verglichen. Es ergibt sich nur dann gute Übereinstimmung, wenn vorausgesetzt wird, daß der Einbau statistisch erfolgt und dabei mit gleicher Wahrscheinlichkeit für jede beliebige Stelle zwischen zwei Laurinlactambausteinen oder am Kettenende abläuft. Weitere Rechnungen verdeutlichen den Einfluß des Reglereinbaus auf die Größe des amorphen Anteils.

    Description / Table of Contents: Auf Grund von mikroskopischen Beobachtungen wurde festgestellt, daß unter dem Einfluß von UV-Strahlung die Oberfläche von PVC-Filmen einer Formveränderung unterliegt. Auf der Oberfläche erscheinen Bläschen und Löcher. Die sich absondernden Gasprodukte der Polymerfotodestruktion verursachen die Bildung dieser Bläschen und Löcher. Größere Oberflächenänderungen wurden in Filmen mit einem Zusatz von 1-5% eines MMA/MA-Copolymeren beobachtet. Das weist auf eine in diesem Modifikator stattfindende Photoabbaureaktion hin, deren Ergiebigkeit größer ist als in reinem PVC. Dieser Modifikator wird in PVC eingeführt, um die Filmoberfläche zu verbessern, beschleunigt allerdings ihre Zerstörung unter dem Einfluß von UV-Strahlung. Es wurde festgestellt, daß Cyclohexanonspuren in den Proben den Photoabbau von MMA/MA retardieren, diesen Prozeß in PVC aber beschleunigen.
    Notes: By means of microscopic observation, the deformation of the surface of PVC films caused by 253.7 nm UV radiation was investigated. Numerous blisters and holes were formed by the gaseous photodecomposition products of the polymer.More apparent deformation of the films containing MMA/MA suggests that the photodecomposition of this modifier occurs with higher efficiency than that of PVC.MMA/MA copolymer is introduced into PVC films to improve the smoothness of their surface, but this modifier accelerates the deformation of this surface under UV irradiation. It was also found that traces of cyclohexanone in samples retard the photodecomposition of MMA/MA and accelerate this process in PVC.

    Description / Table of Contents: Eine Anzahl von Harzen wurde durch gemeinsame Kondensation von p-Aminoacetophenon (p-AAph), substituierten Benzoesäuren wie m-Tolylsäure (m-TA), o-Tolylsäure (o-TA), Phthalsäure (PhA), p-Nitrobenzoesäure (p-NBA), p-Chlorbenzoesäure (p-CIBA) und Formaldehyd (F) in Gegenwart von verschiedenen Säuren und Basen als Katalysatoren hergestellt. Die Harze wurden IR-spektroskopisch charakterisiert. Die Löslichkeitsparameter wurden gemäß Small's Gruppenbeteiligung berechnet; sie stimmen gut mit den experimentellen Werten überein. Das thermische Verhalten und die bakteriologischen Eigenschaften der Harze wurden auch untersucht.
    Notes: A number of resins has been prepared by condensing p-amino-acetophenone (p-AAph) with substituted benzoic acid such as m-toluic acid (m-TA), o-toluic acid (o-TA), phthalic acid (PhA), p-nitrobenzoic acid (p-NBA), p-chlorobenzoic acid (p-CIBA) and formaldehyde (F) in presence of some acids and bases as catalysts. The resins were characterized by infrared spectra of the characteristic groups. The solubility parameters were calculated from Small's group contribution which agreed well with the experimental values. The thermal behaviour and the bacteriological properties of the resins have also been investigated.

    Notes: Notwithstanding their more common beginnings, liquid crystals and molecular biology developed mainly parallel and independently during the last one hundred years.Molecule-phase relationships on the one and complex static-dynamic treatments on the other hand seem to forward mutually integrative views in our days.Biomesogen approaches will deepen our insights into the spatio-temporal coherences of biological systems. They might contribute significantly to the understanding of life processes.

    Notes: Recent studies on ionic distribution in solutions and in suspensions were reviewed. Suspensions of latex particles, which were large enough to be seen under an ultramicroscope, were investigated by the 2-D Fourier transformation. The micrograph showing ordered structures gave discrete scattering spots, whereas those of disordered arrangements displayed no spots or halos. The two-state structure gave a limited number of halo, confirming our previous conclusion that the very frequently observed single, broad scattering peak was reminiscent of some kind of ordering of solute species. By using an image data analyser, the crystallization process was shown to follow the Ostwald ripening mechanism. The concurrent study by the quasi elastic light scattering method and by the Fourier analysis gave consistent scattering profiles, which indicated that the ordering phenomena took place in the entire volume of suspensions. The scattering intensity (correctly the lattice factor) was calculated for cubic systems with paracrystalline distortion. The peak intensity was lowered by enhanced distortion, while the peak position itself was not affected. This justifies our previous treatment of the single, broad peak in terms of the Bragg equation. The experimentally found scattering curve was compared with this theoretical calculation; the degree of distortion was evaluated.

    Notes: Lyotropic liquid crystalline phases of cellulose derivatives were explored as an analytical tool. Molar mass dependent measurements of the helicoidal cholesteric pitch of a cellulose tricarbanilate/solvent system may be used to determine the molar mass of this derivative by optical means. The compatibility of a ternary liquid crystalline system can be adequately investigated by a study of the supermolecular structure with spectroscopic measurements.

    Notes: The application of carotenoids as natural additives in various water-based or water-compatible formulations for the pigmentation of foods and feeds is seriously hampered by their insolubility in aqueous systems.Therefore, in order to develop the full potential of colour strength and to achieve a high degree of bioavailability during gastro intestinal passage, the coarse crystalline material has to be transformed into a microdisperse state.Exemplified with β-carotene, a novel non-mechanical process is described that transforms the carotenoids into a colloidal hydrosol characterized by an average particle size of about 0.1 μm.The process is based on the preparation of a transient high temperature solute state of the carotenoid in a water-miscible solvent, coupled with succeeding rapid aqueous precipitation in the presence of a stabilizing polymer colloid. The obtained hydrosols are characterized by photon-correlation-spectroscopy(size), and microelectrophoresis(colloidal stabilization).The bioavailability was tested by monitoring plasma levels of β-carotene in veal calves.

    Notes: Polymer science is mature enough to allow one to think about tailor-making macromolecular compounds aimed at interacting purposely with living systems. Reasons for developing bioresorbable polymers for temporary therapeutic applications are discussed with respect to property adjustments and economical factors. The field of the applications is first described and guidelines for tailor-making multimeric macromolecules with desired properties are presented. The approach led to focuss investigations on poly(α-hydroxy acids) and functional poly(β-hydroxy acids) derived from natural hydroxy acids, namely lactic, glycolic and malic acids. Physical, mechanical and biological properties of some corresponding polymers and copolymers are presented. Last but not least, examples of applications currently investigated are recalled.

    Notes: When blood comes into contact with an artificial surface, a number of events occur which include protein adsorption, platelet activation and the activation of the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. With the increased application of blood containing artificial devices, there is a great demand to develop new biomaterials which retard thrombus formation. Our new approach to solving this problem is to mimic the non-thrombogenic surface of natural biological membranes at least in a simple form. We have developed a polymerisable phospholipid and polyesters based on the major phospholipid polar head group present on the erythrocyte outer membrane surface. The coagulation of blood exposed to these polymers was examined by the technique of Material Thrombelastography, a relatively simple test for the in vitro screening of polymer thrombogenicity. We present results which indicate that the polymerised phospholipid and polyesters show reduced thrombogenicity, and may therefore have potential for future biomaterials.

    Notes: After implantation a stable bond between the implant and the surrounding tissue is required. Therefore a high cell adhesion of the polymer surface of the implant must be achieved. Depending on the treatment time of a polydimethylsiloxane foil with oxygen plasma, the cell adhesion can be improved. FT-IR spectroscopy and ESCA analysis were used to characterize the surface modification. The cell spreading and cell adhesion increase with increasing hydrophilic character of the polymer surface after plasma treatment. A pronounced correlation was found between the efficiency of DNA and protein content, characterizing cell growth, and the spreading of the cells.Polydimethylsiloxane, Glow-Discharge, Surface Modification, Cell Adhesion, Cell Proliferation.

    Notes: We have used synthetic polymers as tools to probe endocytosis and lysosome function. Their particular value lies in their well-defined chemical constitution and in the possibility to custom-synthesize molecules with desired characteristics. Polyvinylpyrrolidone, Percoll and polystyrene beads have been 125I-labelled and used to explore the borderland of pinocytosis and phagocytosis. Derivatized poly(aspartamide), poly(hydroxypropylmethacrylamide) and a polylysine-poly(ethylene oxide) block copolymer have been used to investigate the effects of hydrophobic moieties and sugar residues on substrate-selection in pinocytosis. The effect of cationic moieties has been studied using vinylpyrrolidone-vinylamine copolymers.Poly(hydroxypropylmethacrylamide) with certain oligopeptide side---chains have been shown to be susceptible to lysosomal peptidases. Ethylene glycol oligomers are being used to study the basal permeability of the lysosome membrane.Soluble macromolecules have considerable potential in targeted drug-delivery. Drugs attached to appropriate polymers by covalent links that are susceptible to lysosomal enzymes can deliver drug to target cells and avoid unwanted sideeffects. Synthetic macromolecules have several advantages over their natural counterparts: they are chemically more robust, less immunogenic, and easier and cheaper to prepare in bulk.

    Notes: Diagnostics are e. g. reagents or combinations of reagents or measure bloodcomponents down to concentrations of 10-15 mol/1 in reproducable form. To achieve this target diagnostics have to fullfill special requirements in purity, uniformity, producibility and reproducibility. These requirements are also valid for integrated polymers and plastics. Examples of the application of polymers and plastics in diagnostics are e. g. materials for the blood-plasma-separation, the stabilization of proteins, solid phases in immunoassays as reagent tubes, microtiterplates and latexparticles.Reciprocal actions between polymers, plastics, polymer additives, blood and bloodsubstances like proteins in diagnostic tests can be seen as indications to similar effects by the intracorporeal applications of plastics in surgery and in general for contacts of natural materials with plastics, as usual in the foodpacking.

    Notes: Using Eupergit, a synthetic resin, as an example, the necessary characteristics of a support for high performance affinity chromatography (HPAC) are demonstrated. To such a support different ligands can be immobilized and used for the separation of biopolymers.From the range of possible applications a few examples are chosen. Immunoglobulins are isolated in one step by protein A-HPAC, the purified antibodies are immobilized and applied to immunoaffinity-HPLC for the isolation of corresponding antigens. Concanavalin A-HPAC of membrane proteins was chosen to represent chromatography with immobilized lectins. Antithrombin could be isolated from human plasma by the use of immobilized heparin. HPAC has the advantage of affinity chromatography, which is above all highly specific. As the support is resistant to high pressure and has well defined microparticles with a particular pore size, it provides a much higher yield at considerable flow rates. The handling of materials like this is simpler, the separation of the sample is quicker and can be reproduced more easily.

    Description / Table of Contents: Controlled polyelectrolyte adsorption can be used to render phospholipid bilayer membranes sensitive to physical and chemical signals. We describe in this paper the design and construction of macromolecular switches for bilayer membranes, which can be used to create lipid vesicles that release their contents rapidly and quantitatively in response to changes in pH, temperature, light intensity or glucose concentration. The kinetics and mechanisms of the molecular switching processes observed in such systems are also discussed.
    Notes: Kontrollierte Adsorption von Polyelektrolyten kann ein wirksames Werkzeug im Design von dünnen molekularen Filmen sein. Man kann erwarten, daß die Adsorption von Polyelektrolytketten das empfindliche Kräftegleichgewicht erheblich beeinflußt, das die strukturellen und funktionellen Eigenschaften von geordneten Strukturen wie Einzel-, Doppel- und Mehrfachschichten bestimmt. Andererseits ist die Adsorption von Polyelektrolyten außerordentlich sensitiv auf Umgebungsparameter, z.B. pH, Temperatur oder lonenstärke. Kontrollierte Adsorption kann daher zu Sensitivität auf bestimmte chemische oder physikalische Stimuli führen, sodaß auf diese Weise ein molekularer Schaltmechanismus entworfen werden kann. Durch Umsetzen dieser ldee in reale Systeme gelang es uns, molekulares Schalten in Mischungen von Poly(2-ethylacrylsäre) mit natürlichen oder synthetischen Phosphatidylcholinen zu bewirken. Insbesondere haben wir Phosphatidylcholinvesikel hergestellt, die ihren lnhalt nach einer Änderung von pH, Temperatur, Glukosekonzentration oder nach Bestrahlung mit Licht schnell und quantitativ freisetzen. Die Entwicklung und die Herstellung von Doppelschichtmembranen, die auf solche Änderungen reagieren, sowie die Kinetik und der Mechanismus des damit verbundenen molekularen Schaltprozesses werden im vorliegenden Artikel diskutiert.

    Notes: Enzymes can be immobilized by gel entrapment, by microencapsulation, by physical or ionic adsorption, by covalent binding to inorganic or organic carriers, or by whole cell immobilization. Of particular interest is the large number of chemical reactions developed for the covalent binding of enzymes via their nonessential functional groups to inorganic carriers such as glass, ceramics and iron, to natural polymers such as cellulose and Sepharose, and to synthetic polymers such as nylon, polyacrylamide, and other vinyl polymers and copolymers possessing reactive chemical groups. The stability of certain enzymes is markedly increased on their immobilization. It was thus possible to transform the biologically active polymer derivatives into active enzyme beads, enzyme capsules, enzyme columns and enzyme membranes and these enabled the construction of enzyme reactors such as the batch-stirred tank reactors, the continuous packed bed reactors, and fluidized bed reactors. So far mainly immobilized hydralases and isomerases are being used in industry on a large scale. It seems likely, however, that once adequate techniques become available for cofactor recycling, the use of immobilized enzymes will be extended to other organic reactions, particularly those involving stereospecific synthesis of simple or complex organic molecules. Among the industrial processes in which immobilized enzymes are being used, it is worth mentioning the industrial-scale continuous production of fructose enriched syrup from glucose by immobilized glucose-isomerase, the batch process for the production of 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA) from penicillin G with the aid of immobilized penicillin amidase; the production of aspartame from aspartic acid and phenylalanine by immobilized thermoase; the large scale production of optically active amino acids with immobilized amino acid acylase; and the large scale production and application of immobilized lactase for the hydrolysis of lactose. The recently developed process for acrylamide production using immobilized nitrilase containing microbial cells should also be referred to. The successful use of an NAD-polyethylene glycol conjugate (NAD-PEG) as a nondialyzable water-soluble coenzyme derivative in the enzymic synthesis of leucine from α-ketoisocaproic acid and ammonia, in a membrane-enclosed reactor containing L-leucine dehydrogenase, NAD-PEG, formate and formate dehydrogenase, illustrates the new possibilities opened up by making use of cofactor-polymer conjugates. The use of enzyme-polymer conjugates in analytical and clinical is also illustrated.

    Notes: The genetic make-up of living systems especially of isolated cells can be altered by a variety of methods including chemical or light-induced mutation. More modern procedures are the in vitro recombination of nucleic acids and the cell-cell fusion.The new methods are especially useful to reprogram microorganisms to produce valuable proteins or other natural products in excess quantties. In the following we will elucidate the importance of the new techniques by describing the bacterial production of glucose dehydrogenase, of the proteinase inhibitor stefin A and by outlining the methods and promisses of substractive cloning. Although the economic value of genetic engineering techniques still awaits justification, the importance of the methodology for basic biological research is well documented.

    Notes: Immobilization of whole cells has become an efficient tool for biosynthesis, biotransformation and analysis. High cell density, high operational stability, easy handling, propably in continuous systems, and multiple reuse are important advantages of immobilized cells. In comparison to other methods like adsorption, crosslinking and encapsulation, the entrapment within a polymeric network is the most widely applied technique in heterogeneous biocatalysis. For immobilizing mammalian cells nearly exclusively the adsorption onto micorcarriers is used. Requirements for the polymers to be used in such immobilized cell systems are discussed in detail.

Die experimentellen Daten wurden mit Hilfe der bekannten Avrami-Gleichung analysiert.Blau-Pigment und Rot-Lack beschleunigen die Kristallisation von isotaktischem Polypropylen, während Orange-Pigment die Kristallisationsgeschwindigkeit etwas herabsetzt.
    Notes: The isothermal and non-isothermal crystallization of isotactic polypropylene coloured with selected organic pigments was examined by differential scanning calorimetry. It was found that the nucleating ability of pigments is connected with their chemical nature and with the reduction of the free energy for critical nucleus formation. The experimental data were analysed in terms of the well known Avrami equation.Blue pigment and Red lake are substances which accelerate the crystallization of isotactic polypropylene, while Orange pigment decreases the crystallization rate slightly.

    Description / Table of Contents: Um bei Kationen-Austauschmembranen eine dauerhafte Selektivität für die Durchlässigkeit von einwertigen Kationen zu erzielen, wurde eine Polyethylenimin-Schicht auf der Membranoberfläche durch Säureamidbindung zwischen Polyethylenimin und den —SO2Cl-Gruppen einer Styrol-co-Divinylbenzol-Membran erzeugt. Nach der Reaktion wurden die im Inneren der Membran verbleibenden —SO2Cl-Gruppen durch Tauchen in wäßrige Natronlauge hydrolysiert.Die so gewonnenen Kationen-Austauschmembranen wurden mittels Elektrodialyse von Seewasser hinsichtlich ihrer Selektivität für die Durchlässigkeit von einwertigen Kationen, ihres elektrischen Widerstandes, ihrer Stromleistung und ihrer überfüh-rungszahlen für Natrium-Ionen untersucht. ATR-IR-Messungen auf der Membran-oberfläche belegen, daß die Shäureamidbindung gegenüber starker Hydrolyseeinwirkung stabil war.
    Notes: In order to give the monovalent cation permselectivity to the cation exchange membrane permanently, polyethyleneimine layer was formed on the membrane surface by acid-amide bond between polyethyleneimine and the —SO2Cl groups of a styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer membrane. After the reaction, the —SO2Cl groups remaining in the inner part of the membrane were hydrolyzed by immersing the membrane into an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution.The resultant cation exchange membranes were evaluated by electrodialysis of sea water from the point of view of the monovalent cation permselectivity, electric resistance of the membrane, current efficiency, and transport number of sodium ions calculated by membrane potential in connection with reduced viscosity of the various commercial polyethyleneimines, ATR-IR measurements on the membrane surface suggested that the acid-amide bond was stable for severe hydrolysis reaction.

The rate constants of this reaction are correlated with the dissociation constant of the bonded acid and with the character of the used catalyst. The reactivity of polymer-bonded epoxy groups is not changed when comparing with reactions performed under homogeneous conditions.

    Notes: The properties (squared dimensions, anisotropy, numbers of intra- and intermolecular contacts) of a single five-way cubic lattice chain embedded into an environment (matrix) of chains of the same length n = 50 were evaluated as a function of matrix volume fraction (matrix density) v and intermolecular interaction between the matrix polymer and the minority chain segments, characterized by a parameter φ. No convincing evidence was found for the occurrence of a coil-globule transition in the range of matrix densities (v ≤ 0.7) and repulsive interactions between matrix and minority chain (φ ≤ 0.2) investigated. For moderate attractive interaction (φ ≈ -0.17) a compensation of the chaincompressing action of the matrix and the chain-expanding interaction with the matrix was observed resulting in a zero-dependence of the size and shape of the minority chain on matrix density. It further turned out that there are fixed relations among the various size and shape data irrespective of the specific combination of matrix density and thermodynamic interaction by which a particular polymer dimension is produced. These interrelations are fairly the same as those evaluated for isolated chains the size of which is varied by an intramolecular energy parameter φi.

    Notes: New three phases composite materials made of glassbeads as filler, water as liquid dispersed phase and polystyrene as matrix were obtained by polymerization of a water in oil emulsion formed by water dispersed in styrene in which glass beads are added. For this purpose glass beads have to be modified by silanization by a coupling agent 3-(Trimethoxysilyl)propylmethacrylate (TPM) or a silane Octadecyltrichlorosilane (ODMS), in order to prevent the wetting of the glass by water. Only low coverage of the glass surface by the coupling agent (0,05% of TPM) are convenient for the preparation cellular materials having good mechanical properties. At higher coverage ratio, strong hydrophobic glass beads are obtained which destabilize the water / styrene emulsion and lead to macroporous products. Study of the rheology of the filled emulsion appears to be the more simple and more sensitive method to determine the level of wettability of the glass bead by the emulsion which is the most significant parameter for the preparation of such three phases composite materials. Composite materials made of glass beads, air and polystyrene are simply obtained by evaporation of water under vacuum.

    Notes: To test the molecular parameters concerning gas sorption in polymers, the concentration of CO2, N2O, CO, N2, CH4 and the noble gases Ne, He in glassy poly(butylene terephthalate) films (PBTP) has been studied gravimetrically with a recording microbalance at 25°C. The sorption isotherms exhibit downward curvature to the pressure axis. As neither solubility nor adsorption can explain the experimental results, analysis was carried out based on the dual-sorption model: gas dissolution and microvoid filling are considered as independent sorption mechanisms. The parameters of the dual-sorption model for the mentioned penetrants are determined. The results indicate that for parameter correlation the Lennard-Jones potential parameters give a rough idea, but size exclusion of gases in small diameter microvoids is proposed and special chemical interactions must be considered.

    Description / Table of Contents: The ring opening metathesis polymerisation (ROMP) of 5-cyano-2-norbornene with tungsten hexachloride, tungesten oxytetrachloride, bis(dichloralkoxo)tungsten tetrachloride and bis(dichloralkoxo)tungsten oxydichloride as transition metal component was studied. Methylaluminoxan, diethylaluminium ethoxide, tetraisobutyldialuminoxan and tetrabutyltin served as cocatalyst. Toluene, Chlorobenzene and dichloromethane were used as solvents. The concentration of the tungsten components was in the range from 5 × 10-4 to 5 × 10-3 mol/l. Among the catalyst studied, tungsten hexachloride with diethylaluminium ethoxide proved to be the best. The polymerisation was highly selective with this system even at high monomer/tungsten ratios (e.q. 10200:1) and let to high conversions (≥82%).
    Notes: Die ringöffnende metathetische Polymerisation (ROMP) von 5-Cyano-2-norbornen wurde unter Einsatz von Wolframhexachlorid, Wolframoxidterachlorid, Bis(dichloralkoxo)wolframtetrachlorid und Bis(dichloralkoxo)wolframoxiddichlorid als Übergangsmetallkomponente untersucht. Als Cokatalysatoren dienten Methylaluminoxan, Diethylaluminiumethoxid, Tetraisobutyldialuminoxan und Tetrabutylzinn. Als Lösungsmittel wurden Toluol, Chlorbenzol und Dichlormethan verwendet. Die Konzentration der Wolframkomponente lag im Bereich 5 × 10-4 - 5 × 10-3 mol/l. Unter den geprüften Katalysatoren erwies sich Wolframhexachlorid in Verbindung mit Diethylalumiumethoxid als der geeignetste. Mit diesem System verlief die Polymerisation auch bei großen Monomer/Wolfram-Verhältnissen (10200 :1) hochselektiv und führte zu großen Umsätzen (≥82%).

    Notes: The dependence of dilution on the chain propagation and termination rate constants was investigated in the polymerization of ethyl acrylate in benzene solution at 50°C, with the rotating sector method. The errors of the above rate constants were determined and, by our method applied to decrease these errors, the errors of the propagation rate constant was reduced to its half value. By the application of our earlier results in polymerization kinetics, we found that in this system the chain propagation step is exclusively responsible for the solvent effects observed. Our experimental results can be quantitatively described in terms of the hot redical theory.

    Description / Table of Contents: Der Orientierungsmechanismus von kaltverstrecktem, teilkristallinem Polyoxymethylen wurde durch Messung der Intensität der Weitwinkel-Röntgenstreuung (WAXS) untersucht. Die Anisotropie der Proben wurde im einachsigen Zugversuch bei etwa 130°C im Temperaturbereich zwischen Glasübergangstemperatur und Schmelzpunkt erzeugt. Der Prozess der plastischen Deformation wurde für verschiedene Stadien der Verstreckung diskutiert. Die Orientierungsverteilung der Kristalllamellen wurde qualitativ charakterisiert durch die Berechnung von Polfiguren aus den WAXS Streuintensitätsdaten. Der Grad der Orientierung wurde durch die Berechnung des Orientierungsfaktors für den [100] Flächennormalenvektor der Einheitszelle beschrieben. Die Textur der eingeschnürten Proben mit hoher Orientierung wurde als Mischung von axialer und uniplanar-axialer Textur erkannt. Als mögliche Erklärung für diesen Orientierungstyp wird ein Einfluß der Probengeometrie angenommen.
    Notes: The orientation mechanism of cold-drawn, partially crystalline polyoxymethylene (ULTRAFORM) samples was studied by performing wide angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) measurements. The anisotropic samples were prepared in uniaxial tensile tests around 130°C, in a temperature range between the glass transition and the melting point. The process of the plastic deformation is discussed for different degrees of anisotropy. The orientation distribution of the crystalline lamellae was qualitatively characterized by performing pole figure intensity calculations from the measured WAXS intensities. The degree of orientation was quantitatively described by calculating the orientation factors for the [100] normal vector of the unit cell. The texture of the necked samples with high orientation degrees was a mixture of axial and uniplanar-axial textures. An explanation for the formation of this kind of orientation is proposed assuming an influence of the sample geometry on the orientation process.

    Description / Table of Contents: Herkömmliches Vernetzen von Polyethylen niedriger Dichte (LDPE) wurde mit Dicumylperoxid (DCP) als Vernetzer durchgeführt. DCP wurde in verschiedenen Konzentrationen mit LDPE-Schnitzeln in einem Extruder bei 135 - 145°C gemischt. Monofilamentfäden wurden bei 110°C auf einer Laborziehmaschine gezogen. Die Zugdehnungseigenschaften, der prozentuale Schrumpf und die Dichte wurden mit Zunahme der DCP-Konzentration und der Heizdauer verbessert, während jedoch die prozentuale Quellung abnahm.
    Notes: Conventional crosslinking of low density polyethylene (LDPE) was carried out using dicumyl peroxide (DCP) as crosslinking agent. DCP in various concentrations was mixed with LDPE chips in an extruder at 135 - 145°C. Monofilaments were drawn on a laboratory drawing machine at 110°C. It was found that tensile properties, percent shrinkage and density were improved with the increase in the concentration of DCP and in the heating period, whereas, however, the percent swelling decreased.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Resultate von Untersuchungen über die chemische Wechselwirkung zwischen einigen monofunktionellen Modellverbindungen, die die Struktur und Reaktivität von wärmehärtbaren Phenol- und Harnstoff-Formaldehyd-Harzen simulieren, mit Holzkomponenten (Hemicellulosen, Cellulose und Lignin) werden dargelegt. Während Hemicellulosen deutlich dazu neigen, Kondensationsprodukte mit diesen Modellverbindungen zu ergeben, reagieren Lignine in manchen Fällen weniger leicht und abhängig davon, durch welchen Prozeß sie gewonnen worden sind, und abhängig von der Art der Modellverbindung. Cellulose reagierte wegen ihrer Kristallinität nicht unter den gegebenen Bedingungen.
    Notes: Results are presented on the chemical interactions occurring when some monofunctional model compounds simulating the structure and reactivity of thermosetting phenol- and urea-formaldehyde resins are mixed with wood components (hemicelluloses, cellulose, and lignins). Whereas hemicelluloses clearly show a propensity to give condensation products with these model compounds, lignins can react less readily in some instances depending on the delignification procedure used to isolate them and on the type of model compound. Cellulose did not react under the conditions chosen, mostly because of its crystalline character.

    Description / Table of Contents: XPS-, SSIMS- und Wasserkontaktwinkelmessungen wurden verwendet, um den chemischen Einfluß von CF4/O2-Entladungen auf Polycarbonat (PC) aus Bisphenol A zu charakterisieren. Die durch Plasmabehandlung erzeugte Oberflächenmodifizierung kann auf der Basis der im Plasma vorhandenen aktiven Spezies, deren Konzentration durch Actinometrie bestimmt worden ist, erklärt werden.Bei kleinen Gehalten an O2 im Gas (1%) tritt eine umfassende Fluorierung der Oberfläche bedingt durch die Pfropfung von Fluorkohlenstoff-Radikalen ein. Es werden perfluorierte Inseln gebildet, wie der hohe Wert des zunehmenden Kontaktwinkels zeigt. Bei 20-80% O2 reagieren Fluoratome mit der Oberfläche und ätzen sie teilweise. Kleine Gehalte an Fluor, aber keine perfluorierten Inseln werden beobachtet. Sauerstoff trägt zum Ätzen bei und oxidiert die PC-Oberfläche. Die Sauerstoffkonzentration auf der Oberfläche nimmt mit Zunahme des O2-Gehalts im Gas zu, ebenso die Bildung von stark oxidierten Inselchen auf der Probenoberfläche, wie die dramatische Abnahme der Kontaktwinkel zeigt. Eine Verminderung der Aromatizität der Oberfläche, die mit Hilfe von XPS und SSIMS beobachtet wird, ist die Folge dieser Reaktionen.
    Notes: XPS, SSIMS and water contact angle measurements have been used to characterize the chemical effect of CF4/O2 discharges on polycarbonate (PC) made from bisphenol A. We found that the surface modification induced by plasma treatment can be clearly explained on the basis of the acitve species present in the plasma, whose concentration has been studied by actinometry.With very low amounts of O2 in the gas feed (1%) extensive fluorination of the surface occurs, due to grafting of the fluorocarbon radicals. Perfluorinated islands are formed, as shown by the high value of advancing contact angles. In the 20-80% O2 range, fluorine atoms react with the surface, partially inducing etching. Low amounts of fluorine are observed on the sample and no perfluorinated islands. Oxygen participates in etching and oxidizes the PC surface. We observed an increase of the surface concentration of oxygen with increasing the O2 amount in the gas feed and also the formation of strongly oxidized islets on the sample surface, as shown by the dramatic reduction of receding contact angles. A reduction of surface aromaticity, observed by XPS and SSIMS, is the consequence of these reactions.

    Description / Table of Contents: An attempt was made to obtain cationic cellulose derivatives of highest possible degrees of substitution by treating dissolving grade pulps under homogeneous conditions with glycidyltrimethylammonium chloride in the solvent system dimethylacetamide/lithiumchloride. The influence of temperature, reaction time and molar ratio of the reagents was examined. A reaction time of 8 h and a temperature of 70°C have been found to be optimal. The cellulose content in solution and the molar ratio of the reagents have to be adapted to the used pulp.

    Description / Table of Contents: Durch gemeinsame Reaktion von Benzophenontetracarbonsäuredianhydrid, Maleinsäureanhydrid und Diaminen mit 1,3,5-Triazingruppen wurden niedermolekulare Prepolymere mit Amin-Endgruppen erhalten, die sowohl 1,3,5-Triazingruppen als auch Etherbindungen enthalten. Diese reaktiven Prepolymeren sind in niedrigsiedenden Lösemitteln wie z. B. Chloroform und Tetrahydrofuran löslich. Sie wurden durch Elementaranalyse, IR- und NMR-Spektroskopie, Dampfdruckosmometrie und Viskosimetrie charakterisiert. Beim Erhitzen der Prepolymeren auf Temperaturen zwischen 180 und 190°C tritt Kettenverlängerung durch Michael-Addition auf; gleichzeitig vernetzen sie durch Reaktion der Amin- mit den Maleimid-Endgruppen. Die vernetzten Polymeren sind thermisch stabil; ihr thermisches Verhalten wurde durch TGA, DTA und isotherme Alterung untersucht. Die Biegefestigkeit und interlaminare Scherfestigkeit von aus den Prepolymeren und Carbonfasergeweben hergestellten Laminaten wurden gemessen.
    Notes: Low molecular weight amine-terminated monomaleimide prepolymers containing 1,3,5-triazine groups as well as ether linkages were synthesized by reacting benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride, diamines having 1,3,5-triazine group and maleic anhydride. These reactive prepolymers are soluble in low boiling solvents such as chloroform, tetrahydrofuran etc. They were characterized by elemental analyses, IR and NMR spectroscopy, vapour pressure osmometry, and viscosity. On heating at 180-190°C these prepolymers undergo simultaneous chain extension by Michael addition reaction and crosslinking by mutual reaction between their amine-terminated and maleimide-terminated ends. The cured polymers are thermostable and the thermal behaviour was studied by TGA, DTA, and isothermal aging. Laminates fabricated using these prepolymers and carbon fiber as reinforcing agent were evaluated by their flexural strength and interlaminar shear strength.

    Description / Table of Contents: Ein Epoxidharz wurde durch Reaktion mit Anilin bzw. Benzylamin in unterschiedlichen molaren Verhältnissen modifiziert. Die modifizierten Harze wurden dann mit Diethylamin und anschließend mit teilblockiertem Toluylendiisocyanat umgesetzt, wobei thermisch vernetzbare Harze mit tertiären Aminen in und am Ende der Polymerkette erhalten wurden. Die partielle Ansäuerung mit Essigsäure lieferte thermisch vernetzbare kationische Harze, aus denen durch Lösen in geeigneten Lösungsmitteln und Zugabe von entionisiertem Wasser Emulsionen hergestellt wurden. Diese wurden hinsichtlich ihrer Eignung zur elektrolytischen Abscheidung untersucht und verglichen. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, daß die Abscheidungsausbeute und das Streuvermögen der Emulsionen aus Benzylamin-modifizierten Epoxidharzen besser sind als die der Anilin-modifizierten Epoxidemulsionen. Ein hohes, vom pH-Wert der Emulsion abhängiges Streuvermögen ist für diese kationischen Harze charakteristisch.
    Notes: Aniline/benzylamine-modified epoxy resins with different molecular weights, which contain tertiary amines in the middle of the polymer chain, were synthesized by the reaction of aniline/benzylamine with epoxy resin at various molar ratios. The resulting aniline/benzylamine-modified epoxy resins were reacted with diethylamine and subsequently reacted with 2-ethylhexanol-blocked toluene diisocyanate to obtain thermally crosslinkable resins which contain tertiary amines at the end and in the middle of the polymer chain. These resins were partially neutralixed with acetic acid to give thermally crosslinkable cationic resins. The resulting cationic resins were dissolved in suitable solvents and mixed with deionized water to form various emulsions. The emulsion and electrodeposition properties of these resins were studied in some detail to compare the properties of these cationic resins. The results show that the deposition yields and throwing power of the emulsions prepared from benzylaminemodified epoxy resins are higher than those of the emulsions prepared from anilinemodified epoxy resins. The emulsion having proper pH values can give a high throwing power. High throwing power is the characteristic property of these modified cationic resins. Factors determining the throwing power and deposition yield of the emulsions were also investigated.

Esterification of these acids with methanol/sulfuric acid gives the corresponding aryl acrylic acid methyl esters in good yields. In methanolic solution these methyl esters isomerize upon irradiation (λ 280 nm). No photodimerization was observed. Kinetic data are given.

    Description / Table of Contents: Different composite materials, with retified or natural poplar and polyester resin were prepared by molding. The influence of the filler granulometry on certain physicochemical (density, humidity, hardness) or mechanical properties of the materials was studied. The density and the increase of mass in humid atmosphere were always found to be less when the wood was thermally treated. On the other hand, the hardness of the composites made from natural poplar was much higher. The mechanical properties were found to be weak when the wood was retified.When the wood was thermally treated, it was possible to optimise the three parameters, namely, density, water retention capacity and mechanical properties. The optimal granulometry of poplar was determined between 0.75 and 1.5 mm.The results obtained are discussed considering the physico-chemical properties of the different varieties of wood studied and the interactions which exist between the polar resin and the wood.
    Notes: Divers matériaux composites à base de peuplier rétifié ou naturel et de résine polyester insaturée ont été préparés par moulage. L'influence de la granulométrie de la charge a été étudiée sur quelques propriétés physico-chimiques (densité, reprise d'humidité, dureté) ou mécaniques des matériaux obtenus. La densité et la reprise de masse en milieu humide sont toujours plus faibles si la charge est traitée thermiquement sous atmosphère inerte. Par contre, la dureté des composites issus du peuplier naturel est plus importante. Les propriétés mécaniques sont inférieures si la charge est rétifitée.Si la charge lignocellulosique est traitée thermiquement, il est possible d'optimiser les trois paramètres: densité, reprise d'eau et propriétés mécaniques; la granulométrie optimale du peuplier est ainsi comprise entre 0,75 et 1,5 mm.Les résultats obtenus sont expliqués en tenant compte des propriétés physico-chimiques des charges et des interactions existant entre la résine polaire et le bois.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht das Wasserdurchlässigkeitsverhalten von vier Arten verschieden modifizierter Chitosanmembranen zur Abtrennung von Wasser aus wäßrigen Ethanolmischungen. Chitosan wurde aus Chitin von Krebstierschalen durch Verseifung (Deacetylierung) gewonnen. Die in dieser Arbeit untersuchten modifizierten Chitosanmembranen enthielten Carboxymethyl-, Carboxyethyl-, Cyanethyl- und Amidoxim-Chitosan. Die Einführung hydrophiler funktioneller Gruppen in der 6-O Position des Chitosans erhöht die Selektivität der modifizierten Membranen im Vergleich zu den mit Essigsäure komplexierten Chitosanmembranen. Die Untersuchungen zeigen, daß Chitosanmembranen, die Carboxygruppen enthalten, die höchste Wasserdampfdurchlässigkeit aufweisen. Carboxymethyl-Chitosanmembranen zeigen eine maximale Quellung und den höchsten Ethanoldurchfluß bei einer Ethanolkonzentration von ca. 15 Gew.-% im Zulauf aufgrund von Bindungs- und Weichmachereffekten.
    Notes: The present study investigates the pervaporation performance of four kinds of modified chitosan membranes to separate water from aqueous ethanol solution. Chitosan was prepared from chitin abstracted from the crab shell and subsequently deacetylated with aqueous NaOH solution. Modified chitosan membranes examined in this study include carboxymethyl chitosan, carboxyethyl chitosan, cyanoethyl chitosan, and amidoxime chitosan. The incorporation of hydrophilic functional groups into the 6-O position of chitosan enhances the selectivity of modified chitosan membrane compared to the previously reported chitosan-acetic acid complex membrane. Among the modified chitosan membranes, membranes containing carboxy groups show the best pervaporation performance. Carboxymethyl chitosan membranes show the maximum swelling and ethanol flux at approx. 15 wt.-% feed ethanol concentration due to the coupling and plasticizing effect.

    Description / Table of Contents: The tensile properties of self reinforced poly(propylene)/poly(1-butene) composites, obtained by rapid extension of the melt, have been measured and correlated to morphological parameters derived from x-ray experiments. Critical fiber lengths as a function of sample composition and the elastic modulus and yield stress of the fibers could be determined. It is shown, that, applying a load to the system, the forces are fully taken up by the fibers and the system breaks by fail of the fibers. The longitudinal structure of the fibers is found to be independent of sample composition.
    Notes: Mechanische Parameter wie Elastizitätsmodul, Fliß- und Bruchspannung von aus der hochorientierten Schmelze hergestellten nadelkristallinen Mischungen aus Poly(propylen) und Poly(1-bute) wurden mit morphologischen Parametern, die aus Röntgenmessungen abgeleitet wurden, korreliert. Es wird gezeigt, daß der Elastizitätsmodul des Verbundes aus den E-Moduln der Fasern und der Matrix berechnet werden kann (Mischungsregel). Die an der Probe angreifenden Kräfte werden voll auf die Fasern übertragen; der Verbund kann daher als eigenfaserverstärktes System angesehen werden. Die Abschätzung der kritischen Faserlänge ergibt, daß die Festigkeit der FAsern voll ausgenutzt wird; der Bruch des Systems bei Belastung ist daher auf das Versagen der Fasern zurückzuführen. Das mechanische Verhalten des Verbundes wird stark beeinflußt durch die Komponentenzusammensetzung. Die longitudinale Struktur der Nadeln beider Komponenten bleibt unbeeinflußt von der jeweiligen Co-Komponente.

    Description / Table of Contents: Lösliche kationische Polyelektrolyte mit quartären Stickstoffatomen in der Hauptkette wurden durch Polykondensation von Epichlorhydrin (ECH) mit Dimethylamin (DMA) und N,N-Dialkylaminoakylaminen erhalten. Die Reaktionsparameter, die die Polymereigenschaften hauptsächlich beeinflussen, sind: Molverhältnis DMA/asymmetrische Diamine, Ausgangskonzentration der Aminlösung, Molverhältnis ECH/Amine und die Struktur der asymmetrischen Diamine. Das viskosimetrische Verhalten verdünnter wäßriger Lösungen mit oder ohne Zugabe neutraler Salze veranschaulicht die flexible Natur der Polyelektrolyten.
    Notes: Water soluble cationic polyelectrolytes containing quaternary nitrogen atoms within the main chain were prepared via condensation polymerization of epichlorohydrin (ECH) with dimethylamine (DMA) and N,N-dialkylaminoalkylamines. The main parameters of the reaction that influence the polymer properties are: DMA/asymmetrical diamine molar ratio, the initial concentration of amine solution, NaOH/amine molar ratio, ECH/amine molar ratio, and asymmetrical diamine structure. The feature of flexible polyelectrolyte own to the investigated polymers was emphasized by the viscosimetric behaviour in dilute aqueous solutions with and without salt presence.

    Description / Table of Contents: Antioxidantien wurden in einer modifizierten Friedel-Crafts-Reaktion mit wasserfreiem Zinkchlorid als Katalysator an Flüssig-Naturkautschuk mit Hydroxy-Endgruppen gebunden. Die immobilisierten Antioxidantien waren weniger flüchtig und extrahierbar als konventionelle Antioxidantien. Sie wurden sowohl einem Latex als auch trockenem Kautschuk zugesetzt; die daraus hergestellten Vulkanisate zeigten eine bessere Alterungsbeständigkeit als Vulkanisate mit konventionellen Antioxidantien.
    Notes: Antioxidants were attached to hydroxy-terminated liquid natural rubber by modified Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction using anhydrous zinc chloride as catalyst. The rubber bound antioxidants were found to be less volatile and less extractable compared to conventional antioxidants. The bound antioxidants were tried both in latex compounds and dry rubber compounds. The vulcanizates showed improved ageing resistance compared to vulcanizates based on conventional antioxidants.

Die Abhängigkeit von σ gegen 1/T deutet auf zwei verschiedene Leitfähigkeits-mechanismen hin. Aus den Ergebnissen wurden die Aktivierungsenergien der Leitfähigkeit und die Sprungdistanzen berechnet.
    Notes: Current-voltage characteristics of polycarbonate samples (PC) have been studied in the voltage range 50-1000 V. The effect of UV-irradiation at λ = 225 and 300 nm, and thermal annealing on the electrical conductivity (σ) of PC was studied. The σ vs. 1/T relationship shows two slopes, i.e. two possible conduction mechanisms. The obtained results made it possible to determine a complete set of conduction parameters including activation energy and jump distance.

    Description / Table of Contents: Durch Suspensionspolymerisation wurden Terpolymere aus Acrylnitril (AN), Vinylacetat (VA) (7,5-30 mol-%, bezogen auf AN) und Divinylbenzol (DVB) (10 Gew.-%) hergestellt. Als Verdünner wurden Mischungen von Toluol oder Cyclohexanol (90 Vo1.-%) mit Hexadecan, Octan, Dodecan, 2-Ethylhexanol oder Benzylalkohol (jeweils 10 Vo1.-%) verwendet.Die Porosität der AN-VA-DVB-Terpolymeren ist mit 0,61-0,68 größer als die der entsprechenden AN-DVB-Copolymeren. Die übermolekulare Struktur der Terpolymeren hängt vom verwendeten Verdünner ab, obwohl sich die Porositäten nicht sehr voneinander unterscheiden. Die beim Erhitzen der Terpolymeren auf Temperaturen über 200°C auftretenden thermischen Effekte sind signifikant größer als die bei der Cyclisierung von AN-Polymeren gemessenen.
    Notes: Terpolymers of acrylonitrile (AN), vinyl acetate (VA) (7.5-30 mol-%, related to AN), and divinylbenzene (DVB) (10 wt.-%) were prepared by suspension polymerization. The diluents used were mixtures of toluene or cyclohexanol (90 vol.-%) with solvents (10 vol.-%) such as hexadecane (HD), octane (O), dodecane (D), 2-ethylhexanol (E) or benzyl alcohol (B).It has been found that AN-VA-DVB terpolymers have a higher porosity, about 0.61-0.68, than corresponding AN-DVB copolymers. The terpolymers obtained with mixtures of various diluents differ in their supermolecular structure although they had similar porosity characteristics.The thermal effects accompanying heating of the terpolymers above 200°C significantly exceed that of nitrile groups cyclization observed of the other AN polymers.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wird ein allgemeines numerisches Verfahren vorgestellt, um die Modifikation der Grundgleichung für hydrodynamische Schmierung, die von mit Polymeren versetzten Schmierölen mit scherabhängiger Viskosität erbracht wird, zu berechnen.Das Verfahren basiert auf dem verallgemeinerten Newtonschen Fileßmodell und erlaubt, alle Fileßregionen zwischen dem rein Newtonschen und dem Exponentialgesetzverhalten kontinuierlich zu behandeln. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, daß der Einfluß der scherspannungsabhängigen Viskosität durch eine dimensionslose Zahl vollkommen charakterisiert wird, nämlich U · τ*/h*, wobei U die relative Gleitgeschwindigkeit, h* die charakteristische Filmdicke und τ* die Relaxationszeit des Schmieröles darstellen.Als praktisches Beispiel wird die Anwendung des Verfahrens aufgezeigt, um den Einfluß des Molekulargewichts und der Konzentration der Polymerkomponente des Schmieröls auf die hydrodynamische Schmierung zu bestimmen. Dieser Einfluß ist durch die starke Beziehung zwischen Polymereigenschaften und τ* verursacht.
    Notes: A general numerical procedure is presented to calculate the modification of the basic equation for hydrodynamic lubrication brought about by the use of polymeric fluids with shear depending viscosity. The procedure is based on the generalized Newtonian fluid model and allows to treat continuously all the flow regions between the pure Newtonian and the power law behavior. The results show that the influence of the viscosity depending on shear stress is completely characterized by one dimensionless number, namely U.·τ*/h*, where U is the relative sliding velocity, h* is the characteristic film thickness, and τ* is a characteristic time of the lubricant. The procedure is exemplified by applying it for the determination of the influence of the molecular weight and concentration of the polymeric component of the lubricant on the hydrodynamic lubrication. This influence is brought about by the strong relation between the polymer properties and τ*.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Morphologien von spritzgegossenem und formgepreßtem Poly(1-buten) (PB-1) wurden im Polarisationsmikroskop und im Transmissionselektronenmikroskop untersucht. Eine dünne Oberflächenhaut und bis in den Kern der Probekörper reichende abgeplattet-sphärolithische Strukturen werden bei spritzgegossenem PB-1 beobachtet, während in formgepreßtem PB-1 typische Sphärolithe vorliegen. Das Bruchbild des spritzgegossenen PB-1 zeigt unter der Oberflächenhaut viele aufgereihte streifenartige Hohlräume, die senkrecht zur Spritzrichtung zur Mitte des Probekörpers wachsen. Aus diesen Beobachtungen kann geschlossen werden, daß eine beim Spritzgießen durch den Schmelzefluß induzierte Scherspannung nicht nur die Entstehung der Oberflächenhaut verursacht, sondern auch bis in die Mitte des Probekörpers hinein die Bildung abgeplatteter Sphärolithe bewirkt. Diese abgeplattet-sphärolithischen Strukturen sind für die beim Dehnen des spritzgegossenen PB-1 entstehenden, streifenartigen Hohlräume verantwortlich, während die Oberflächenhaut und die abgeplatteten Sphärolithe im Kern die Sprödigkeit und die im Vergleich zu formgepreßtem PB-1 geringere Bruchdehnung bewirken. Diese kann durch Tempern oberhalb des Schmelzpunktes erhöht werden.
    Notes: The injection-molded poly(1-butene) (PB-1) is found to be more brittle than the compression-molded PB-1. The morphologies of these specimens are examined by use of polarized optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). A skin layer and an oblate spherulitic structure extended to the core region are observed in the injection-molded PB-1, while typical spherulites exist in the compression-molded PB-1. Below the skin layer of the injection-molded PB-1, the fracture surface is found to consist of many aligned strip-like voids with ribbon edges propagating to the center of the specimen and perpendicular to the flow direction of injection-molding. Based on these observations, it can be inferred that shear stress induced by the melt flow during the injection-molding does not only cause the formation of skin layer, but also penetrates deeply into the central region of the injection-molded specimen causing the formation of oblate spherulites. The oblate spherulitic structure is responsible for the aligned voids during elongation of PB-1, while the existence of the skin layer and the oblate spherulites in core region is responsible for the brittleness of the injection-molded PB-1. The elongation of the injection-molded PB-1 is found to be lower than that of the compression-molded. This can be attributed not only to the presence of the skin layer but also to the oblate spherulites in the core region. The elongation can be improved by annealing at a temperature above the melting point of PB-1.

Die thermischen Eigenschaften wurden thermogravimetrisch und mittels DSC untersucht. Die Prüfung der Harze auf ihre biologische Aktivität gegen Pseudomonas fluorescens, Bacillus subtilis and Aspergillus niger ergab, daß deren Wachstum durch die Polyketonharze kontrolliert werden kann.

All the resins were tested for their biological activity against Pseudomonas fluorescens, Bacillus subtilis and Aspergillus niger. The results show that the growth of the tested organisms can be controlled by the polyketone resins.

    Description / Table of Contents: In der Arbeit wurde die homogene Polyaddition von Pyromellitsäuredianhydrid und 4,4′-Diaminodiphenylmethan untersucht. Die Abhängigkeit des zahlenmittleren Molekulargewichts (M̄n) von der Zeit weist ein Maximum auf. Die Ursache der niedrigen Gleichgewichtswerte von M̄n beruht auf einer durch Wasserspuren im Lösungsmittel verursachten Dianhydridhydrolyse und damit einer gestörten Äquimolarität der funktionellen Gruppen. Im Laufe der Stabilisierung des M̄n-Gleichgewichtswertes entsteht auch die wahrscheinlichste Molmassenverteilung.
    Notes: The homogeneous polyaddition reaction of pyromellitic dianhydride with 4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane was investigated. The dependence of the number average molecular weights on time has a maximum; low equilibrium values of M̄n are caused by a disturbed equimolarity of functional groups due to the hydrolysis of dianhydride with water present in the solvent. In the course of establishment of the equilibrium M̄n value, the molecular weight distribution changes to the most probable value.

    Description / Table of Contents: Das Phasen- und Mischbarkeitsverhalten der binären und ternären Polymermischungen von Polyarylat (PAR), Phenoxid und Poly(butylenterephthalat) (PBT) wurde untersucht. Die Mischungen wurden durch Ausfällen aus gemeinsamen Lösungen hergestellt, und die Mischbarkeit wurde durch DSC-Messungen und Transparenz der Schmelze beurteilt. Im Falle der binären Blends zeigten PAR/PBT und Phenoxid/PBT Mischbarkeit, während sich PAR/Phenoxid nicht mischen ließ. Die Mischbarkeitstendenz der unmischbaren PAR/Phenoxid-Mischungen konnte jedoch durch Zugabe von PBT erhöht werden; eine ausreichende Menge PBT machte die ternären Mischungen mischbar, so daß diese eine einzige Tg in der DSC-Kurve zeigten. Im ternären Phasendiagramm war das Maximum der Mischbarkeitsgrenze in Richtung auf die Phenoxidseite hin verschoben, was auf die bessere Mischbarkeit von PAR/PBT im Vergleich zu Phenoxid/PBT zurückgeführt wird.
    Notes: The phase and miscibility behavior of binary and ternary blends containing polyarylate (PAR), polyhydroxyether of bisphenol AIUPAC: poly[oxy(2-hydroxytrimethylene)oxy-1,4-phenylene-isopropylidene-1,4-phenylene]. (Phenoxy), and poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) were studied. The blends were prepared by solution-precipitation method and miscibility was examined by DSC and melt transparency. In binary blends, PAR/PBT and Phenoxy/PBT blends show miscibility, while PAR/Phenoxy appeared to be immiscible. However, the miscibility of incompatible PAR/Phenoxy blend was enhanced by addition of PBT. The addition of sufficient amount of PBT caused the ternary blend to have a single glass transition temperature. The shape of miscibility boundary of ternary blend was skewed to the apex of Phenoxy, which was attributed to the better miscibility of PAR/PBT than that of Phenoxy/PBT.

Der Einfluß verschiedener Reaktionsparameter, wie Reaktionstemperatur und -zeit, auf die inhärente Viskosität (ηinh) und auf die Anzahl der Carboxy-und Hydroxy-Endgruppen wurde untersucht. Aus den Messungen von ηinh wurde eine empirische Gleichung erstellt, die die Berechnung von M̄n der PET-Folien nach der Festphasen-Polykondensation bei gegebener Zeit und Temperatur erlaubt.

The effect of various reaction parameters such as reaction temperature and time on inherent viscosity (ηinh) and number of carboxy and hydroxy end-groups has been investigated. From ηinh measurements an empirical equation was taken which allows the calculation of (M̄n) of PET film after solid-state polycondensation at a certain temperature and time. The melting behaviour of the solid-state polycondensated samples was also studied.

    Description / Table of Contents: Sphärische makroporöse Partikel, die als Trägermaterialen für verschiedene Säulen-Operationen eingesetzt werden sollen, wurden mittels Suspensions- und Mikrosuspensionspolymerisation von Trimethylolpropan-trimethacrylat (TRIM) in Gegenwart verschiedener Mengen porogener Reagenzien (Toluol bzw. Mischungen von Toluol und Isooktan) hergestellt. Textur und Eigenschaften der Partikel variierten deutlich mit dem Anteil und der Zusammensetzung des porogenen Reagens und wurden zusätzlich durch die Wahl des Suspensionstabilisators beeinflußt. Die makroporösen Partikel wiesen ein Gesamtporenvolumen von 0,4 bis 3,6 cm3/g und eine spezifische Oberfläche von 7 bis 〉 450 m2/g auf. Alle Partikel enthielten Makroporen und, außer den Teilchen mit sehr niedriger spezifischer Oberfläche, einen gewissen Anteil an Mikroporen (Durchmesser 〈 60 Å). Durch Erniedrigung der Monomerkonzentration und Erhöhung des Isooktan-Gehaltes im porogenen Reagens auf 50 Gew.-% konnte das Auftreten von Mikroporen vollständig unterdrückt werden. Das Erhöhen des Isooktan-Gehaltes führte zu einem vergrößerten Gesamtporenvolumen und zu einem verringerten Quellvermögen der Polymermatrix in Toluol. Der Einfluß einer Hitzebehandlung bei 130°C und eines Aufpfropfens von Polymethylmethacrylat auf die Partikeleigenschaften wurde ebenfalls untersucht.Die Menge an nicht umgesetzten Doppelbindungen in den Partikeln konnte durch Variation der Polymerisationstemperatur verändert werden. Das Vorhandensein leicht zugänglicher Doppelbindungen ist wichtig, da sie zur Funktionalisierung der festen makroporösen Partikel verwendet werden können.
    Notes: Spherical macroporous particles, intended for use as carrier particles in various types of column operations, were prepared by suspension and microsuspension polymerization of trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TRIM), in the presence of various amounts of porogenic agents (toluene or mixtures of toluene and isooctane). The texture and properties of the particles varied markedly with the amount and composition of the porogenic agent, and were also affected by the choice of suspension stabilizer. Macroporous particles were prepared, ranging in total pore volume from 0.4 to 3.6 cm3/g, and in specific surface area from 7 to 〉450 m2/g. All of the particles contained macropores, and except for those with very low specific surface area, contained a certain fraction of micropores (diameter 〈60 Å). The presence of micropores could be eliminated completely by decreasing the monomer concentration and increasing the isooctane content of the porogenic agent to 50 wt.-%. Increasing the isooctane content also resulted in an increase in the total pore volume and a decrease in the tendency of the polymer matrix to swell in toluene. The effect on properties of particles by heat treatment at 130°C and by grafting poly(methyl methacrylate) onto the particles was also studied.The amount of unreacted double bonds of the particles could be varied by varying the polymerization temperature. The presence of easily accessible double bonds is important as they can be utilized for functionalization of the rigid macroporous particles.

    Description / Table of Contents: PE und EPDM-Kautschuk wurden durch Aufpfropfen von Dibutylmaleat (DBM) mit Dicumylperoxid (DCP) als Initiator in Substanz im Temperaturbereich von 140-220°C funktionalisiert. Der Pfropfungsgrad wurde IR-spektroskopisch und durch DSC-Messungen ermittelt. Die für die Pfropfung optimalen DBM- und DCP-Konzentrationen betragen 0,5 bzw. 0,2 Gew.-%. Die Kinetik der Pfropfreaktion ist für PE und EPDM vergleichbar; die Aktivierungsenergien betragen ca. 145 bzw. 130 kJ/mol. Die Pfropfungsgrade sind für PE höher als für EPDM; bei PE/EPDM-Blends steigt der Pfropfungsgrad mit zunehmendem PE-Anteil. Ein Pfropfungsmechanismus, der Nebenreaktionen berucksichtigt, wird vorgeschlagen.
    Notes: Functionalization of polyethylene (PE) and ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) in the bulk through dicumyl peroxide (DCP) initiated grafting of dibutyl maleate (DBM) has been studied in the temperature range from 140 to 200°C. The degree of grafting has been determined by infrared spectrophotometry and DSC. The concentration of DBM and DCP has been optimized. 0.5 wt.-% and 0.2 wt.-% DCP for PE and EPDM, respectively, and 10% DBM for both have been found to be the optimum. The kinetics of the grafting reaction is comparable for PE and EPDM. The activation energy of grafting is ca. 145 kJ/mol for PE and ca. 130 kJ/mol for EPDM. The influence of structure of polyolefins on the degree of grafting has also been studied. A higher degree of grafting is obtained for PE than for EPDM. For PE/EPDM blends, the degree of grafting increases with increasing PE content in the blends. A through discussion and proposed mechanism for grafting and other competitive secondary reactions has been provided.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die dynamisch-mechanischen Eigenschaften von gehärteten Epoxidharzen, gefüllt mit porösen Siliciumdioxid-Mikrokugeln mit unterschiedlichen spezifischen Oberflächen, Porenradien, Porenvolumina und adsorbierter Wassermenge, wurde untersucht. Die Glasubergangstemperaturten (Tg) der Composite sind 12-14°C niedriger als die des ungefullten Harzes, was auf die bevorzugte Adsorption von Härter an den porösen Mikrokugeln zurückgeführt wird. Mit zunehmender adsorbierter Wassermenge steigt die Tg der Composite an. Der Speichermodul ist mit der mit Quecksilber bestimmten spezifischen Oberfläche (Hg-Oberfläche) der Mikrokugeln, die der Summe der Oberfläche von Poren mit einem Durchmesser größer als 4 nm entspricht, korreliert.Das Verbältnis tan δc/tan δm nimmt mit zunehmender Hg-Oberfläche ab.
    Notes: Dynamic mechanical properties were studied for epoxy resin filled with porous silica microballoons with varying surface area, pore radius, pore volume and adsorbed water. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the composites is 12-14°C lower than the Tg of the unfilled epoxy resin. This Tg depression is attributed to the preferential adsorption of curing agents on the porous silica microballoons. Tg of the composite increases with increase in the adsorbed water on fillers. The storage modulus has a distinct correlation with the Hg-surface area of silica microballoons, which corresponds to the sum of the surface area of pores with radii larger than about 4 nm.Tan δc tan δm decreases with increasing Hg-surface area.

    Description / Table of Contents: Membranen aus Blends von Nylon 6 mit Poly(acrylsäure) (PAA) mit PAA-Gehalten zwischen 25 und 45 Gew.-% wurden durch Filmgießen hergestellt und anschließend durch Eintauchen in eine Aluminiumsalzlösung ionisch vernetzt. Die Glasübergangstemperaturen (Tg) der Membranen wurden mit der DSC-Methode bestimmt. Alle Proben zeigen eine einzige Tg oberhalb der Tg der Homopolymeren, die sich mit zunehmender Scanzeit verschiebt; dies wird auf die Eliminierung von Wasser und die Bildung von Anhydriden im nicht vernetzten PAA-Anteil zurückgeführt.Die Morphologie wurde rasterelektronenmikroskopisch untersucht; die Membranen zeigen eine dichte, porenfreie Struktur ohne Phasenseparation, was auf eine völlige Mischbarkeit der beiden Homopolymeren im untersuchten Zusammensensetzungsbereich schließen läßt. Die Festigkeit der Membranen liegt je nach PAA-Gehalt zwischen 5 und 26 MPa; Membranen mit hohem PAA-Anteil zeigen trotz höherer Vernetzungsdichte eine geringere Zugfestigkeit, was mit der geringen Festigkeit von PAA und der mit größerem PAA-Anteil zunehmenden Quellung zusammenhängt. Letztere wurde durch Messen der Wasseraufnahme trockener Membranen bestimmt; sie steigt von 23,6 Gew.-% bei einem PAA-Gehalt von 25 auf 76,3 Gew.-% bei einem PAA-Gehalt von 45 Gew.-%.
    Notes: Ionically crosslinked blended membranes were prepared from blends of nylon 6 and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) with the proportion of PAA ranging from 25 to 45 wt.-%. The technique consists of casting a film of the blend, followed by drying and immersion in an aluminum salt crosslinking solution for a predetermined time. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the membranes was determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). All the samples exhibited a single Tg, which is higher than that of either polymer. There is also a shift in the Tg with increasing scanning time. This phenomenon is attributed to the elimination of water molecules and the formation of anhydrides in the non-crosslinked PAA portion of the membrane. The membrane morphology was studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and shows a dense structure without any pores. No phase separation is observed by scanning cross-sections of the samples, indicating that nylon 6 and PAA are completely miscible in the ranges studied. The membrane material strength lies in the range of 5 to 26 MPa and varies with the amount of PAA in the membrane. Samples with higher PAA content show lower tensile strength in spite of increased crosslinking density. This is due to the inherent low strength of PAA, coupled with increasing swelling of the membrane with increasing PAA content. The latter is confirmed by the measurement of water uptake into a dry membrane which increases from 23.6% to 76.3% with the membrane PAA content increasing from 25 to 45 wt.%.

    Description / Table of Contents: Due to the very strong variation of the viscosity of the reaction mass with increasing monomer conversion, three stationary states for the tubes of a multitubular system with cooling vessel can be found. As a consequence, a maldistribution of the fluid arises, so that the reactor stability and the polymer quality are negatively influenced. The recycling of the reaction mass is a helpful method to increase the reactor stability. In this paper some fundamental aspects of the use of multitubular reactors for the polymerization of styrene are studied.
    Notes: Infolge der sich mit steigendem Monomerumsatz stark verändernden Viskosität der Reaktionsmasse existieren im Multirohrreaktor mit Kühlung mindestens drei stationaäre Punkte bezüglich des Einzelrohrmassenstromes gleichzeitig. Als Konsequenz ergibt sich eine Ungleichverteilung der Rohrbelastung, die sowohl die Reaktorstabilität als auch die Polymerqualität negativ beeinflußt. Das Betreiben einer Rückführung kann das Reaktorverhalten stabilisieren. In der vorgelegten Arbeit werden einige fundamentale Aspekte der Anwendung von Multirohrreaktoren für die Massepolymerisation von Styrol untersucht.

    Notes: A second example of insertion of a water molecule into the helical backbone of an apolar peptide is presented here and compared to a similar occurrence in a longer peptide with the same type of sequence of residues, i.e., Boc-Aib-(Ala-Leu-Aib)3-OMe. The backbone of the title compound assumes an approximate 310-helical form with three 4 → 1 hydrogen bonds. In the place of a fourth 4 → 1 hydrogen bond, a water molecule is inserted between O(1) and N(4), and acts as a bridge by forming hydrogen bonds N(4) … W(1) (2.95 Å) and W(1) … O(1) (2.81 Å). The water molecule participates in a third hydrogen bond with a neighboring peptide molecule, W(1) … O(4) (2.91 Å). The insertion of the water molecule causes the apolar peptide to mimic an amphiphilic helix. Crystals grown from ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (reported here) or from methanol/water solution are in space group P212121 with a = 12.024(4) Å, b = 15.714(6) Å, c = 21.411(7) Å, Z = 4 and dcalc = 1.124 g/cm3 for C32H58N6O9 · H2O. The overall agreement factor R is 6.3% for 2707 reflections observed with intensities 〉 3σ(F) and the resolution is 0.90 Å.

    Notes: Chemical shifts of base and H1′ protons of the single-stranded hexamers d(ATTACC) and d(GGTAAT), of the 1 : 1 mixtures of these complementary hexamers, and of the self-complementary dodecamer d(ATTACCGGTAAT) were measured at various temperatures in aqueous solution. Four different sample concentrations were used in the case of the dodecamer and of the mixture of the complementary hexamers; the individual hexamers were measured at two different DNA concentrations. Absorbance temperature profiles at five different NaCl concentrations were measured for the dodecamer in order to quantify the effect of the ionic strength on the duplex formation.Under suitable conditions of nucleotide concentration, temperature, and ionic strength, the dodecamer adopts either a B-DNA duplex or a hairpin-loop structure. Chemical shift vs temperature profiles, constructed for all samples, were used to obtain thermodynamic parameters either for the various stacking interactions in the single strands or for the duplex or the hairpin-loop formation. In the analysis of the duplex formation of the hexamers, a two-state approach appeared too simple, because systematic deviations were revealed. Therefore, a new three-state model (DUPSTAK) was developed. In order to investigate the magnitude of error arising from the use of the two-state approach in cases where the DUPSTAK model appears more appropriate, a series of test calculations was made. The magnitude of error in the enthalpy and in the entropy of duplex melting is found to depend linearly upon the actual melting temperature and not upon the individual ΔHOd and ΔSOd values.Thermodynamic analysis of the chemical shift vs temperature profiles in D2O solution (no added salt) yields an average Tmd value of 341 K (1M DNA) and ΔHOd of -121 kJ · mol-1 for the dimer/random-coil transition of the hexamer duplex d(ATTACC) · d(GGTAAT). For the duplex ⇄ random-coil transition of the 12-mer d(ATTACCGGTAAT) an average Tmd value of 336 K (1M DNA) and ΔHOd of -372 kJ · mol-1 are found. The hairpin/random-coil transition of d(ATTACCGGTAAT) is characterized by a rather large ΔHOh value, -130 kJ · mol-1, and an average Tmh value of 304 K.

    Notes: A computational method is elaborated for studying the water environment around regular polynucleotide duplexes; it allows rigorous structural information on the hydration shell of DNA to be obtained. The crucial aspect of this Monte Carlo simulation is the use of periodical boundary conditions. The output data consists of local maxima of water density in the space near the DNA molecule and the properties of one- and two-membered water bridges as function of pairs of polar groups of DNA.In the present paper the results for poly(dG) · poly(dC) and poly(dG-dC) · poly(dG-dC) are presented. The differences in their hydration shells are of a purely structural nature and are caused by the symmetry of the polar groups of the polymers under study, the symmetry being reflected by the hydration shell.The homopolymer duplex hydration shell mirrors the mononucleotide repeat. The water molecules contacting the polynucleotide in the minor groove are located nearly in the plane midway between the planes of successive base pairs. One water molecule per base pair forms a water bridge facing two polar groups of bases from adjacent base pairs and on different strands making a “spine”-like structure. In contrast, the major groove hydration is stabilized exclusively by two-membered water bridges; the water molecules deepest in the groove are concentrated near the plane of the corresponding base pair.The alternating polymer is characterized by a marked dyad symmetry of the hydration shell corresponding to the axis between two successive base pairs. The minor groove hydration of the dCpdG step resembles the characteristic features of the homopolymer, but the bridge between the O2 oxygens of the other base-stacking type is formed by two water molecules. The major groove hydration is characterized by high probability of one-membered water bridges and by localization of a water molecule on the dyad axis of the dGpdC step.The found structural elements are discussed as reasonable invariants of a dynamic hydration shell.

    Notes: We report dynamic light scattering measurements over a wide range of scattering vectors for fractionated samples of porcine submaxillary mucin (PSM) glycoproteins in two different solvents: 0.1M NaCl, and 6M GdnHCl. The relaxation spectrum has been successfully resolved into a slow mode corresponding to pure translational diffusion and a fast mode containing information on the relaxation times for intramolecular motion. Analysis of the slow mode permits a light scattering evaluation of the polydispersity of these high molecular weight mucin glycoprotein fractions. Determination of the longest intramolecular relaxation times τ1 shows that these are much longer for the PSM fractions in 0.1M NaCl compared to 6M GdnHCl. These data are consistent with earlier studies showing that the chain conformation is the same in both solvents, but that in 0.1M NaCl, the PSM glycoprotein undergoes a self-association process that is end-to-end in nature. Since the τ1 value is intimately related to the viscoelastic behavior of PSM solutions and gels, it is interesting to speculate that the end-to-end association process may be physiologically important.

    Notes: Theoretical computations are performed of the intercalative binding to a model d(CpG)2 minihelix of 7-H pyrido[4.3C]carbazole, the precursor of the antitumor bisintercalating drug ditercalinium. The conformations of the intercalation site are generated by the AGNAS procedure (algorithm to generate nucleic acid structures) of Miller and co-workers. The ligand-nucleotide interactions and the nucleotide conformational energies are computed with the SIBFA procedures (sum of interactions between fragments ab intio computed), which use formulas of empirical origin that reproduce ab initio SCF (self-consistent field) computations. Among the candidate intercalation sites most favored energetically, one has a pattern of conformational angles related to the one determined crystallographically by Sobell et al. in a series of x-ray structural studies of small intercalator-dinucleotide monophosphate complexes. Optimal values of the unwinding angle, found in the range of -12° to -14°, are consistent with available experimental data on DNA.

    Notes: The effect of concanavalin A (Con A) on the thermotropic behavior of positively charged, glycosyl-free lipids and their mixtures with zwitterionic lipids was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry.The gel to liquid-crystal phase transition enthalpy of pure dipalmitoylcholine (DPC) was found to be significantly increased in the presence of Con A (ΔH = 31.2 and 42.5 KJ mol-1 lipid in the presence and in absence of Con A, respectively). Addition of the lectin to DPC liposomes, furthermore, induces the appearance of a new phase transition centered at 320 K. These results are interpretable by a partial hydrophobic interdigitation of the lectin molecule into the liposomal bilayer.The effect of Con A on the phase behavior of three 2:1 mixtures of zwitterionic and of positively charged lipids was also investigated. Phase diagrams of the systems dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine-dihydrosphingosine (DPPC-DHS), sphingomyelin-dipalmitoylcholine (SPM-DPC), and dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine-dipalmitoylcholine (DMPC-DPC) are presented. In lipid mixtures of limited miscibility (DPPC-DHS and SPM-DPC), Con A induces pronounced phase-separation effects. These effects are attributable to a direct hydrophobic interaction of the lectin with the liposomal bilayer and do not require the presence of specific receptor groups.The possible relationship between lectin-induced phase separations in the lipid matrix of biomembranes, and the observed changes in membrane permeability, membranal enzymatic activities, etc., is briefly discussed.

    Notes: Two-dimensional nuclear Overhauser enhancement (2D NOESY) data are reported for the polypentapeptide of elastin, poly(VPGVG), and the cyclopentadecapeptide, cyclo(VPGVG)3. In both, the repeating type II Pro2-Gly3 β-turn can be derived from the NOE data, providing confirmation of many previous studies. In addition, other through-space connectivities are detailed that also compare favorably with previously determined crystal and solution structures for cyclo(VPGVG)3. Also, near identical data for the cyclopentadecapeptide and the polypentapeptide demonstrate the cyclic conformation-linear (helical) conformational correlate relationship between the two molecules. The 2D NOESY experiment is seen to be an effective means of establishing the presence or absence of a conformational relationship between a cyclic repeating sequence and its higher molecular weight linear counterpart. This is an approach of substantial practical value when developing the conformation of sequential polypeptides and when attempting to identify the presence of the conformation of a repeating peptide sequence within a more complex primary structure.Having established the basic conformational relationship between a cyclic conformation and its linear helical counterpart, cross peaks present in the linear helical structure that are not present in the cyclic conformational correlate can provide information on the interactions between adjacent turns of the helix. In this connection, a ValγCH3 ↔ ProβCH2 interaction is reported that can be the basis for determining the number of pentamers per turn of helix once it is determined whether it is dominantly the Val1 or Val4γCH3 that is interacting with the Pro2βCH2.

    Notes: We have applied the formalism developed previously for the kinetics of domain-localized reaction [S. Mazur and M. T. Record, Jr. (1986) Biopolymers 25, 985-1008] to describe complex mechanisms of association of a protein with a specific site on a large DNA molecule also containing many nonspecific binding sites. These nonspecific sites participate in the mechanism of formation of the specific complex through competitive binding and the facilitating mechanisms of sliding and transfer. The effects of localizing the sites in a domain are represented by a simple algebraic expression, and the sequence of interactions within the domain are described by equations closely related to a conventional, homogeneous solution mechanism. We apply this formalism to examine the interplay between sliding and direct transfer in domain-localized interactions in general and in the lac repressor-lac operator interaction in particular. Experimental investigation of the effect of the molecular location of the specific site (e.g., end vs middle of the polymer chain) on the kinetics of association may allow the contributions of sliding and direct transfer to be resolved.

    Notes: Electrostatic potentials around DNA are obtained by solving the nonlinear Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) equation. The detailed charge distribution of the DNA and the different polarizabilities of the macromolecule and solvent are included explicitly in the calculations. The PB equation is solved using extensions of a finite difference approach applied previously to proteins. Electrical potentials and ion concentrations are compared to those obtained with simpler models. It is found that the shape of the dielectric boundary between the macromolecule and solvent has significant effects on the calculated potentials near the surface, particularly in the grooves. Sequence-specific patterns are found, the most surprising result being the existence of positive regions of potential near the bases in both the major and minor grooves. The effect of solvent and ionic atmosphere screening of phosphate-phosphate repulsions is studied, and an effective dielectric function, appropriate for molecular mechanics simulations, is derived.

    Notes: We have used Raman scattering to study the water O-H stretching modes at ∼ 3450 and ∼ 3220 cm-1 in DNA films as a function of relative humidity (r.h.). The intensity of the 3220-cm-1 band vanishes as the r.h. is decreased from 98% to around 80%, which indicates that the hydrogen-bond network of water is disrupted in the primary hydration shell (which therefore cannot have an “ice-like” structure). The number of water molecules in the primary hydration shell was determined from the intensity of the ∼ 3200-cm-1 band as about 30 water molecules per nucleotide pair. The ∼ 3400-cm-1 O-H stretch band was used for determining the total water content, and this band persists at 0% r.h., implying that 5-6 tightly bound water molecules per nucleotide pair remain. The frequency of the ∼ 3400-cm-1 O-H stretch mode is lower by 30 to 45 cm-1 in the primary hydration shell compared to free water. The water content as a function of r.h. obtained from these experiments agrees with gravimetric measurements. The disappearance of the ∼ 3200-cm-1 band and the shift of the ∼ 3400-cm-1 O-H stretch band provide a reliable way of measuring the hydration number of DNA.

    Notes: An estimation of the thermodynamic effects of a charged random coil, which is attached either to the N- or C-terminus of polyalanine, upon α-helix stability is attempted. A temperature-induced helix-coil transition of Ala20Lys20Phe and Lys20Ala20Phe was studied under various conditions of salt concentration and pH. By combining the results with previous ones for Ala20Glu20Phe and Glu20Ala20Phe, which have opposite electric charges to the present system [S. Ihara et al. (1982) Biopolymers 21, 131-145], the free energy of the coil to helix transition of the polyalanine block could be separated into two terms - one term for the electrostatic interaction of electric charges in the random-coil block with the α-helix dipole, and a second term for the intrinsic stability of the helix. The first term indicates the significance of the helix dipole-charge interactions, which affects the helix stability depending on the attaching side of the charged block and on the sign of the charges. This clearly shows the anisotropic stability of the α-helix. Furthermore, analysis of the dependence of these thermodynamic quantities on salt concentrations showed, assuming that the effect of the attached electric charges was symmetric (in other words, the absolute values of the electrostatic interaction terms were independent of the sign of electric charges), that the intrinsic stability of the α-helix was dependent on which side of the helix was attached to the random coil: a random coil attached to the N-terminus of the α-helix had little effect while that attached to a C-terminal significantly destabilized the helix.

    Notes: The velocity and orientation of T4 and λ DNA have been measured for the first 20 s during pulsed-field gel electrophoresis in order to clarify the DNA motions that occur. For a square pulse with field strength E = 10 V/cm, the velocity of λ DNA increases gradually to 10.5 μm/s in 1.0 s, declines to 8.6 μm/s, and then rises to a plateau value of 9.3 μm/s after 4 s. T4 DNA behaves similarly, but more slowly. Parallel measurements of fluorescence-detected linear dichroism show that the DNA becomes substantially aligned with its chain axis parallel to the electrophoretic field E after the pulse is applied. The alignment also shows an overshoot, an undershoot, and a plateau comparable to those seen for velocity. When the field strength increases, both the velocity and the alignment reach their peaks more quickly. For all field strengths and both molecular weights, the velocity peak occurs when the molecular center of mass has moved 0.3 to 0.5 L, where L is the chain contour length. A qualitative model is provided.

    Notes: In the context of dynamic Monte Carlo simulations on a model protein confined to a tetrahedral lattice, the interplay of protein size and tertiary structure, and the requirements for an all-or-none transition to a unique native state, are investigated. Small model proteins having a primary sequence consisting of a central bend neutral region flanked by two tails having an alternating hydrophobic/hydrophilic pattern of residues are seen to undergo a continuous transition to a β-hairpin collapsed state. On increasing the length of the tails, the β-hairpin structural motif is found to be in equilibrium with a four-member β-barrel. Further increase of the tail length results in the shift of the structural equilibrium to the four-member β-barrel. The random coil to β-barrel transition is of an all-or-none character, but while the central turn is always the desired native bend, the location of the turns involving the two external strands is variable. That is, β-barrels having the external stands that are two residues out of register are also observed in the transition region. Introduction into the primary sequence of two additional regions that are at the very least neutral toward turn formation produces an all-or-none transition to the unique, native, four-member β-barrel. Various factors that can augment the stability of the native conformation are explored. Overall, these folding simulations strongly indicate that the general rules of globular protein folding are rather robust - namely, one requires a general pattern of hydrophobic/hydrophilic residues that allow the protein to have a welldefined interior and exterior and the presence of regions in the amino acid sequence that at the very least are locally indifferent to turn formation. Since no site-specific interactions between hydrophobic and hydrophilic residues are required to produce a unique four-member β-barrel, these simulations strongly suggest that site specificity is involved in structural fine-tuning.

    Notes: Sequence-specific photomodification of oligodeoxynucleotide pAGAGTATTGACTTA (“a target”) has been carried out with the aid of complementary fluorescent probes. Such a probe consisted of oligodeoxynucleotide pAATACTCT and a chromophore group attached to its 5′ end. Three different derivatives of ethidium bromide were used as a chromophore. The photomodification was induced by nitrogen laser radiation (337 nm, 15 MW /cm2). The irradiation induces the following photodamages: target cleavage at the specific binding site with a cutting off of the 8-mer from its 5′ end (yield up to 12%), formation of specific covalent adduct target-probe with a yield of 20-70%, and piperidine-sensitive target modifications with a 7-27% yield (for different chromophores). The total yield of specific photodamages of all kinds is 50-80%. The target cleavage and generation of piperidine-sensitive modifications are optically nonlinear processes. Piperidine treatment of the irradiated samples led to specific cleavage of the target with the yield up to 40%. All kinds of observed modifications are not influenced by high concentrations of free radical scavengers: 1.3M tBuOH and 10 mM cystamine. The pattern of cleavage indicates that the most probable position of the chromophore is between T8 and G9 of the target, i.e., the chromophore stacks on top of the last A · T base pair of the duplex. The aggregate of evidence is in agreement with the mechanism of nonlinear photomodification (the cleavage and generation of piperidine-sensitive modifications) based on the transfer of two-photon excitation energy from the chromophore to the target.

    Notes: The physiological importance of heparin is due to its strong interaction with bivalent counterions, especially Ca2+. A diffusional approach of this property is presented in this article: the observable is the self-diffusion coefficient of the counterions, as a function of the ratio of the polyelectrolyte over the added salt concentrations. All the results are in agreement with a simple “quasi-chemical model” in which two different states are assumed for the counterions: “free” or “bound.” The proportions of these two types of ions are calculated according to the distribution function of the counterions around the polyion. We assume that those of counterions located at a distance closer than a, the characteristic distance, are bound; the others are free. The ionic distribution function is evaluated by a numerical integration of a cell model Poisson-Boltzmann equation. Finally, this model leads to a very good agreement with the experimental results, if the radius of heparin polyion is assumed to be 6 and 10 Å.

    Notes: The calculated spectrum of longitudinal compressional waves on DNA polymer chains is shown to be in excellent agreement with recently performed inelastic neutron scattering measurements in hydrated, oriented DNA crystals. This opens up a previously unexplored frequency regime of DNA science and establishes the validity of the phonon extended wave description of DNA elementary excitations in this region.

    Notes: The synthetic peptide Gly-L-Ala-L-Phe (C14H19N3O4 · 2H2O; GAF) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21, with a = 5.879(1), b = 7.966(1), c = 17.754(2) Å, β = 95.14(2)°, Dx = 1.321 g cm-3, and Z = 2. The crystal structure was solved by direct methods using the program SHELXS-86 and refined to an R value of 0.031 for 1425 reflections (〉 3σ). The tripeptide exists as a zwitterion in the crystal and assumes a near α-helical backbone conformation with the following torsion angles: ψ1 = -147.8°; φ2, ψ2 = -71.2°, -33.4°; φ3 ψ3 = -78.3°, -43.3°. In this structure, one water molecule bridges the COO- and NH3+ terminii to complete a turn of an α-helix and another water molecule participates in head-to-tail intermolecular hydrogen bonding, so that the end result is a column of molecules that looks like an α-helix. Thus, the two water molecules of crystallization play a major role in stabilizing the near α-helical conformation of each tripeptide molecule and in elongating the helix throughout the crystal. An analysis of all protein sequences around regions containing a GAF fragment by Chou-Fasman's secondary structure prediction method showed that those regions are likely to assume an α-helical conformation with twice the probability they are likely to adopt a β-sheet conformation. It is conceivable that a GAF fragment may be a good part of the nucleation site for forming α-helical fragments in a polypeptide, with the aqueous medium playing a crucial role in maintaining such transient species.

    Notes: The solution conformation of [D-Ala2]-leucine enkephalin in its zwitterionic form in DMSO-d6 has been monitored by one- and two-dimensional proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy at 500 MHz. The resonances from the labile amide protons and the nonlabile protons have been assigned from the shift correlated spectroscopy. The chemical shift of the amide and C-α protons are found to vary with temperature but in opposite directions, except the C-α proton of the terminal tyrosine residue. This behaviour has been explained by the shifting of equilibrium between the zwitterionic and neutral forms of the [D-Ala2]-leucine enkephalin and probably conformational changes accompanying temperature variation. The low values of the temperature coefficients of leucine and glycine amide protons indicate that these protons are either intramolecularly hydrogen bonded or solvent shielded. The observation of sequential cross peaks in the nuclear Overhauser effect spectra obtained at various mixing times, τm (200-900 ms), indicate an extended backbone, which does not corroborate with the presence of a folded structure, i.e., β-bend type structure. The estimate of interproton distances in conjunction with the low values of temperature coefficients of the leucine and glycine amide protons and vicinal coupling constants 3JHN-CαH have been rationalized by the predominance of two γ-bends in the backbone conformation of [D-Ala2]-leucine enkephalin. The γ-bend around the D-Ala residue has Φ = 80° and ψ = 270°, while the one around Phe it has Φ = 285° and ψ = 90°.
