Rheological characterization of polycaprolactam anionically synthesized in the presence of lithium chloride

1980

Melt viscosity and dynamic-mechanical data are reported for samples obtained by anionic polymerization of caprolactam, in the presence of LiCl. The full body of results is essentially in line with those previously reported relative to mixtures of inorganic salts and commercial nylon 6, In particular a drastic-decrease of the melting point and of the rate of crystallization is confirmed as well as an increase of the glass transition temperature and of the melt viscosity. Some quantitative differences exist, which may be attributed to the different molecular weight distribution in the polymers employed in the present work.

The glass transition behaviour of salted nylon 6

1981

Glass transition measurements of nylon-6/lithium halides mixtures have been carried out in wide range of frequency with the aid of different experimental techniques. The results show an increase of the glass transition temperature when the salt is present and prove the larger effectiveness of lithium chloride with respect of lithium bromide. This effect, in line with the large reduction of the specific volume caused by the salt, is due to the formation of a pseudo-cross-linking between lithium ions and the carbonyl-oxygen groups of the polyamide.

The role of association/complexation equilibria in the anionic polymerization of (meth)acrylates

1992

The kinetics of the anionic polymerization of methacrylates and acrylates in THF as well as the MWD of the polymers formed depend on the concentration of active centres and of additives, such as lithium halides and lithium alkoxides. These results are discussed on basis of multiple equilibria between non-associated, associated, and complexed ion pairs which are supported by viscosity measurements. The position of these equilibria determines the rate of polymerization, whereas the dynamics of interconversion determine the polydispersity. In the absence of additives the rate of monomer addition to non-associated ion pairs competes with the rate of association. Addition of lithium chloride mai…

Lithium Ion Recognition with Nanofluidic Diodes through Host-Guest Complexation in Confined Geometries

2018

[EN] The lithium ion recognition is receiving significant attention because of its application in pharmaceuticals, lubricants and, especially, in energy technology. We present a nanofluidic device for specific lithium ion recognition via host guest complexation in a confined environment. A lithium-selective receptor molecule, the aminoethyl-benzo-12-crown-4 (BC12C4-NH2), is designed and functionalized on single conical nanopores in polyethylene terephthalate (PET) membranes. The native carboxylic acid groups on the pore walls are covalently linked with the crown ether moieties and the process is monitored from the changes in the current voltage (I-V) curves. The B12-crown-4 moieties are kno…

1975

Tensammetrische Messungen bestatigen, das Tetraalkylammoniumsalze in Methanol mit steigender Kettenlange der Alkylreste und wachsender Konzentration zunehmend starker an der Quecksilberoberflache adsorbiert werden. Polarographie und Zyklovoltammetrie der Diarylsulfone 1–8 in Methanol lassen folgende Schlusse zu: 1 Unabhangig von der Alkylkettenlange der Tetraalkylammoniumsalze werden die Diarylsulfone 1–6 nach einem ECE-Mechanismus gespalten. Bei Verwendung von Alkalileitsalzen sind die genannten Sulfone polarographisch inaktiv. 2 Beim 4-Cyano-diphenylsulfon wird mit Tetramethylammoniumchlorid zyklovoltammetrisch keine Reversibilitat des ersten Elektronen ubergangs beobachtet, wohl aber mit…

Unusual Regioselectivity in the Opening of Epoxides by Carboxylic Acid Enediolates

2008

Addition of carboxylic acid dianions appears to be a potential alternative to the use of aluminium enolates for nucleophilic ring opening of epoxides. These conditions require the use of a sub-stoichiometric amount of amine (10% mol) for dianion generation and the previous activation of the epoxide with LiCl. Yields are good, with high regioselectivity, but the use of styrene oxide led, unexpectedly, to a mixture resulting from the attack on both the primary and secondary carbon atoms. Generally, a low diastereoselectivity is seen on attack at the primary center, however only one diastereoisomer was obtained from attack to the secondary carbon of the styrene oxide.
