Controlled radical polymerization of alkyl acrylates and styrene using a half-sandwich molybdenum(III) complex containing diazadiene ligands

2003

Abstract The half-sandwich molybdenum(III) complex CpMoCl 2 ( i Pr 2 -dad) ( i Pr 2 -dad= i Pr–NCH–CHN– i Pr) proved to be an effective metal catalyst for the controlled radical polymerization of methyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, and styrene. In conjunction with an alkyl iodide [R–I: CH 3 CH(COOEt)I] as an initiator and in the presence or absence of Al(O– i -Pr) 3 as a co-catalyst, the molybdenum-based system gave polymers with narrow molecular weight distributions. The in situ addition of styrene to a macroinitiator of poly(methylacrylate) afforded an AB-type block copolymer.

Tailored Semiconducting Polymers: Living Radical Polymerization and NLO-Functionalization of Triphenylamines

2002

This paper describes the preparation of various polymers with triarylamine side groups. High molecular weight materials were obtained by free radical polymerization utilizing the gel effect. Polymers with a marrow polydispersity and a predetermined molecular weight could be prepared by living radical polymerization. The T g could, thereby, be controlled between 50 and 140°C either by using different monomers or by varying the molecular weight. Living radical polymerization allowed in addition the preparation of block copolymers. The triarylamine side groups could be transformed into NLO-chromophores by reaction with tetracyanoethylene. This leads to the incorporation of tricyanoethylene. Th…

Polymerization of an activated ester monomer based on 4-vinylsulfonic acid and its polymer analogous reaction

2011

Homopolymers containing sulfonic ester side groups were synthesized by reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization utilizing benzyl dithiobenzoate, cumyl dithiobenzoate, and 4-cyano-4-((thiobenzoyl)sulfanyl)pentanoic acid as chain transfer agents. Likewise diblock copolymers containing poly(styrene), poly(octylstyrene) and poly(pentafluorostyrene) as the second block were synthesized. Additionally, nitroxide mediated polymerization (NMP) was investigated for the synthesis of a homopolymer as well as for a diblock copolymer. Furthermore, the post-polymerization functionalization with various amines to yield the respective sulfonamides was conducted. The conversion …

Delayed-neutrons from arsenic isotopes 84As, 85As and 86As

1973

Abstract Short-lived arsenic isotopes were produced by thermal-neutron fission of 235U and isolated within 2·5 sec by volatilization of arsenic hydride. The existence of a strong delayed-neutron precursor of 2·05±0·05 sec half-life among the arsenic isotopes is confirmed and its assignment to 85As ascertained by milking of the daughter product 33 sec 85Se and 3·1 min 84Se, which is the final nucleus in the neutron decay branch of 85As. A delayed-neutron yield of 7·8 ± 1·2 neutrons/104 fissions was obtained for 85As. A new isotope, 0·9 ± 0·2 sec 86As, was detected by delayed-neutron counting and by following the decay of its most prominent γ-ray. The mass assignment was verified by milking o…

Heavy isotopes of actinium: 229Ac, 230Ac, 231Ac and 232Ac

1973

Abstract By irradiation of 232Th with 150-MeV bremsstrahlung and with 14-MeV neutrons, three new neutron-rich isotopes of actinium, 230Ac, 231Ac and 232Ac, were produced and identified and the previously reported isotope, 229Ac, was confirmed. The actinium isotopes were chemically isolated by a fast procedure based on elution with α-hydroxyisobutyric acid from cation exchange resins. For 229Ac, a half-life of 62·7 ± 0·5 min and a β-ray energy of 1·14 ± 0·15 MeV were found; 35 γ-rays were observed, the strongest ones with the following energies and relative intensities: 135·3(34), 146·4(35), 164·6(100), 252·2(24), 261·9(39), 317·0(23), 539·9(20), 569·1(91), and 605·2 keV(23). For 230Ac, a ha…

Activation cross-sections for some 14·8 MeV neutron-induced nuclear reactions on caesium: Isomer ratios of 134Cs, 133Xe and 130I

1970

Abstract Absolute cross-sections for 14·8 MeV neutron-induced reactions on 133Cs were determined using the activation technique. The results, with maximum errors of 15 per cent, are: ρ(n,γ)=7·1 mb (ρ(n,γ) 134m Cs =1·82 mb , ρ(n,γ) 134g Cs =5·3 mb ; ρ(n,2n) 132 Cs =1620 mb ; ρ(n,p)=10·5 mb (ρ(n,p) 133m Xe =4·8 mb , ρ(n,p) 133g Xe =5·7 mb ; ρ(n,α)=1·14 mb (ρ(n,α) 130m I =0·54 mb , ρ(n,α) 130g I =0·6 mb ; ρ(n, 3 He ) 131 I =3·2 μ barn ; ρ(n,2p) 132 I ⩽12 μ barn . At this particle energy direct interaction processes also contribute. The isomer cross-section ratios σ m σ g for 134Cs, 133Xe and 130I are 0·34±0·08, 0·85±0·15 and 0·91±0·2 respectively. A reinvestigation of the alleged 127I (n, 3n)1…

About entangled networks of worm-like micelles: a rejected hypothesis

1996

We report new results from small-angle neutron scattering on d(1 2)-cyclohexane/lecithin/water micellar solutions performed as a function of the water content (w(o)), temperature (T) and dispersed phase volume fraction (phi). The data from dilute samples are interpretable in terms of the existence of giant cylindrical reverse micelles and are well fit with a core-shell model (that provides the micelle structure and dimensions) with values of 28 and 45 Angstrom for the inner core and the outer shell radii, almost independent on temperature and concentration. Such a result could appear consistent with the current idea that worm-like micelles are living polymers. On the contrary, the appearanc…
