Polietylen liniowy małej gęstości
2002
Artykuł o charakterze przeglądowym dotyczy jednego z gatunków polietylenu, tj. liniowego polietylenu małej gęstości (PE-LLD) stanowiącego kopolimer etylenu z niewielką ilością (kilku %) wyższej l-olefiny otrzymywany metodą polimeryzacji koordynacyjnej z udziałem metaloorganicznych układów katalitycznych. Omówiono wpływ typu katalizatora, w szczególności nowoczesnych układów metalocenowych, na aktywność w kopolimeryzacji i efektywność wbudowania komonomeru do łańcucha polietylenowego. Przedstawiono przemysłowe metody otrzymywania PE-LLD oraz charakterystykę tego produktu na tle znanych gatunków polietylenu - PE-LD i PE-HD. Omówiono także wpływ budowy chemicznej PE-LLD na jego podstawowe właś…
Janus Nanostructures from ABC/B Triblock Terpolymer Blends
2019
Lamella-forming ABC triblock terpolymers are convenient building blocks for the synthesis of soft Janus nanoparticles (JNPs) by crosslinking the B domain that is &ldquo
Liquid-crystalline ionomers
1997
Liquid-crystalline (LC) ionomers combine the properties of ionomers (cluster formation of the ionic groups) with LC phases. They can be prepared with LC main-chain and LC side-chain polymers.
Amphiphilic Polyethers of Controlled Chain Architecture
2003
The amphiphilic polymers, polymers which contain in their macromolecules both hydrophilic and hydrophobic units1, are the base for valuable materials due to their diversified interaction with liquids. So they may act as emulsifiers, compatibilizers, “smart” materials (responding to external stimuli)2 and many others. In order to control their properties, the hydrophilic — hydrophobic balance in the macromolecules has to be controlled. This balance depends not only upon the constitution of the chain repeating units, but also upon the art of their distribution in the chains (copolymers of controlled unit sequences), the chain topology, the size of the chains and many others. So a careful engi…
Biocompatible polymeric micelles with polysorbate 80 for use in brain targeting.
2008
In this paper, the synthesis and characterization of novel amphiphilic graft copolymers based on an alpha,beta-poly(N-2-hydroxyethyl)-D, L-aspartamide (PHEA) backbone and D, L-polylactic acid (PLA) hydrophobic side chains are reported. These copolymers were obtained starting from PHEA-ethylenediamine (PHEA-EDA), which was functionalized with polysorbate 80 (PS(80)) and/or PLA in order to obtain the PHEA-EDA-PS(80)-PLA and PHEA-EDA-PLA samples, respectively. The degrees of derivatization, DD(PS80) and DD(PLA), of PHEA-EDA-PS80-PLA, calculated by (1)H-NMR, resulted in being 1.2 +/- 0.03 mol% and 0.54 +/- 0.05 mol%, respectively, while that of PHEA-EDA-PLA was found to be 0.60 +/- 0.05 mol%. S…

In situ gel forming graft copolymers of a polyaspartamide and polylactic acid: Preparation and characterization
2008
Abstract In situ gel forming systems have been prepared by linking polylactic acid (PLA) to a water soluble and polyfunctional polymer, such as α,β-poly( N -2-hydroxyethyl)- d , l -aspartamide (PHEA). Three graft copolymers PHEA–PLA with a different derivatization degree in PLA, have been synthesized and characterized. PHEA–PLA graft copolymer with the highest amount in PLA has been used to prepare solutions in organic solvents able to give rise to gel-like matrices when injected into phosphate buffered saline solution. The chemical degradation of these gels has been evaluated and in vitro tests have been performed to evaluate the cell compatibility of the hydrolysis products. The possibili…
Synthesis and Characterization of Syndiotactic Polystyrene-Polyethylene Block Copolymer
2019
The direct synthesis of syndiotactic polystyrene-block-polyethylene copolymer (sPS-b-PE) with a diblock structure has been achieved. The synthetic strategy consists of the sequential stereocontrolled polymerization of styrene and ethylene in the presence of a single catalytic system: cyclopentadienyltitanium(IV) trichloride activated by modified methylaluminoxane (CpTiCl3/MMAO). The reaction conditions suitable for affording the partially living polymerization of these monomers were identified, and the resulting copolymer, purified from contaminant homopolymers, was fully characterized. Gel permeation chromatography coupled with two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy COSY, HSQC, and DOSY confirme…
Synthesis, Characterization and Preliminary Biological Evaluation of P(HPMA)-b-P(LLA) Copolymers: A New Type of Functional Biocompatible Block Copoly…
2010
We describe a synthetic pathway to functional P(HPMA)-b-P(LLA) block copolymers. The synthesis relies on a combination of ring-opening polymerization of L-lactide, conversion into a chain transfer agent (CTA) for the RAFT polymerization of pentafluorophenyl methacrylate. A series of block copolymers was prepared that exhibited molecular weights $\overline M _{\rm n}$ ranging from 7 600 to 34 300 g · mol(-1) , with moderate PDI between 1.3 and 1.45. These reactive precursor polymers have been transformed into biocompatible P(HPMA)-b-P(LLA) copolymers and their fluorescently labeled derivatives by facile replacement of the pentafluorophenyl groups. The fluorescence label attached to this new …

The use of preformed polymers for the preparation of Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) multilayers is reviewed. Principles for polymer self-organization are outlined and the appropriate molecular designs are discussed. Recent developments in the different classes of polymers for LB multilayers are presented, and their outstanding properties highlighted.
