Hyperbranched Polylactide Copolymers
2006
A series of hyperbranched poly(l-lactide) (PLLA) copolymers were prepared by copolymerization of dilactide with 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)butyric acid (BHB) as an AB2 comonomer via a combined ring-open...
Classical growth of hard-sphere colloidal crystals.
1995
The classical theory of nucleation and growth of crystals is examined for concentrated suspensions of hard-sphere colloidal particles. The work of Russel is modified, extended, and evaluated, explicitly. Specifically, the Wilson-Frenkel growth law is modified to include the Gibbs-Thomson effect and is evaluated numerically. The results demonstrate that there is a critical nucleus radius below which crystal nuclei will not grow. A kinetic coefficient determines the maximum growth velocity possible. For large values of this coefficient, quenches to densities above the melting density show interface limited growth with the crystal radius increasing linearly with time. For quenches into the coe…
Kristallisations- und schmelzverhalten von copolymeren aus 3,3-bis(chlormethyl)oxetan und ß-propiolacton
1974
Einkristalle von Copolymeren aus 3,3-Bis(chlormethyl)oxetan und s-Propiolacton wurden bezuglich Schmelzverhalten, Schmelzenthalpie, Dichte und Langperiode untersucht. Aus der Messung der Schmelzenthalpie und der Dichte berechnen sich Kristallisationsgrade von 50—60% in guter Ubereinstimmung mit einem Modell, welches den Ausschlus der aus s-Propiolacton (PL) entstandenen Grundbausteine von dem aus Sequenzen der 3,3-Bis(chlormethyl)oxetan (BCMO-)Einheiten aufgebauten Gitter verlangt. Im Vergleich zu reinem Poly-BCMO wird die Dicke der Copolymereinkristalle nur wenig durch Anderung der Kristallisationstemperatur beEinflust. Wegen des blockartigen Aufbaus der Copolymeren bestimmt die mittlere S…
Molecular association in low-temperature and high-pressure polymorphs of 1,1,1,2-tetrachloroethane
2010
Interactions and aggregation of 1,1,1,2-tetrachloroethane molecules, Cl3CCH2Cl, have been investigated at low temperature and high pressure. Isobaric and isochoric crystallizations led to two polymorphs, characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The low-temperature polymorph α is monoclinic, space group C2/c, with molecules orientationally disordered in two sites at the temperature independent 70:30 rate. In isothermal conditions (295 K) 1,1,1,2-tetrachloroethane freezes at 0.73 GPa. The high-pressure polymorph β is monoclinic, space group P21/c, with the molecules fully ordered. The molecular aggregation at varied thermodynamic conditions results from the interplay of halogen inte…
Recent advances on ionic liquid uses in separation techniques
2018
International audience; The molten organic salts with melting point below 100°C, commonly called ionic liquids (ILs) have found numerous uses in separation sciences due to their exceptional properties as non molecular solvents, namely, a negligible vapor pressure, a high thermal stability, and unique solvating properties due to polarity and their ionic character of molten salts. Other properties, such as viscosity, boiling point, water solubility, and electrochemical window, are adjustable playing with which anion is associated with which cation. This review focuses on recent development of the uses of ILs in separation techniques actualizing our 2008 article (same authors, J. Chromatogr. A…
X-ray study of LB multilayers of cadmium soaps in the vicinity of the break up point
1991
Temperature dependent SAXS measurements were carried out on multilayers of two different salts, cadmium palmitate (hexadecanoate) and behenate (docosanoate). The pattern characteristic of layer structure disappears at a transition temperature well below the bulk melting point in both cases. Examination by means of optical microscopy shows that the LB films break up at a temperature close to this transition. Measurements in its vicinity demonstrate that over a certain temperature range just below the transition a second set of peaks arises in the diffraction pattern. During this transition region of about 3 °C width two d-spacings for both salts were found, suggesting the simultaneous existe…
Thermal, spectroscopic and crystallographic analysis of mannose-derived linear polyols
2018
The major diastereomer formed in the Barbier-type metal-mediated allylation of D-mannose has previously been shown to adopt a perfectly linear conformation, both in solid state and in solution, resulting in the formation of hydrogen-bonded networks and subsequent aggregation from aqueous solution upon stirring. Here, a comprehensive study of the solid state structure of both the allylated D-mannose and its racemic form has been conducted. The binary melting point diagram of the system was determined by differential scanning calorimetry analysis, and the obtained results, along with structure determination by single crystal X-ray diffraction, confirmed that allylated mannose forms a true rac…
In situ characterization of the high pressure – high temperature melting curve of platinum
2019
AbstractIn this work, the melting line of platinum has been characterized both experimentally, using synchrotron X-ray diffraction in laser-heated diamond-anvil cells, and theoretically, using ab initio simulations. In the investigated pressure and temperature range (pressure between 10 GPa and 110 GPa and temperature between 300 K and 4800 K), only the face-centered cubic phase of platinum has been observed. The melting points obtained with the two techniques are in good agreement. Furthermore, the obtained results agree and considerably extend the melting line previously obtained in large-volume devices and in one laser-heated diamond-anvil cells experiment, in which the speckle method wa…
Density variations in liquid tellurium: Roles of rings, chains and cavities
2010
Liquid tellurium has been studied by density-functional/molecular-dynamics simulations at 560, 625, 722, and 970 K and by high-energy x-ray diffraction (HEXRD) at 763 K and 973 K. The HEXRD measurements agree very well with earlier neutron-scattering data of Menelle et al. The density maximum near the melting point (722 K) reflects the competition between twofold and threefold local coordination, which results in chain formation and changed ring statistics at lower $T$, and the variation with $T$ of the volume of cavities ($26--35\text{ }\mathrm{%}$ of the total). A higher-order gradient expansion of the exchange-correlation functional is needed to describe structural details. Changes in th…
X-ray Studies of Debye Temperature of Some ABO 3 Perovskites
2002
Debye temperatures T D of some perovskite compounds are determined by X-ray diffraction. Correlation between T D determined at T=180 °C, mean square displacements of atoms, quasi-elastic coupling, and melting temperature of the perovskite compounds is analysed.
