Poly(n-decyl methacrylate), a statistical copolymer of ethylene and propylene, and a diblock copolymer of styrene and hydrogenated butadiene were studied as representatives of various kinds of viscosity-index (VI) improvers. Essomarcol 52 and AF 1 from Schindler served as base-oils, toluene and 1-phenyl dodecane were also studied. By means of viscosity measurements in the temperature interval from 37.8 to 98.9°C up to a concentration of typically 1 wt.-% polymer, the viscosity indices of the different systems and the corresponding intrinsic viscosities, Huggins coefficients, and activation energies of flow, E≠, were determined. The discussion of the obtained experimental material demonstrat…

Elution curves on spherosil gels in pure and mixed eluents of poly(dimethylsiloxane), PDMS, and poly(methyl methacrylate), PMMA, as well as those of polystyrene, PS, just for comparison, have been determined. In a general way, PDMS elution volumers fit to those of PS, whereas PMMA elution curves shift to higher retention volumes. The differences in retention volumes between the different polymeric solutes have been interpreted in terms of differences in polymer-gel and polymer-solvent interactions. Hydrogen-bonding seems to be the main contribution to solute-substrate interactions.

Die Wirksamkeit verschiedener peroxyde auf die mit Hilfe von Redox-Systemen beschleunigte Lösungspolymerisation von Styrol

1954

Verschiedene Diacylperoxyde, Hydroperoxyde, Dialkylperoxyde und Persaren werden als Komponenten von Eisen-Redox-Systemen zur Polymerisation von Styrol in Benzol bei 50° C benutzt. Die erzielten Umsatze werden mit denen bei peroxydischer Polymerisation verglichen. Bei bromhaltigen Peroxyden kann aus dem Bromgehalt der Polymeren auf die Zahl der eingebauten peroxydischen Bruchstucke geschlossen werden. Dabei Anwendung von Brombenzopersare kein Brom in den Polymeren nachzuweiseu ist, mus angenommen werden, das der Kettenstart durch OH-Radikale erfolgt. Different diacyl peroxides, hydroperoxides, dialkylperoxides and peracids are used as components of Fe··-redox-systems to polymerize styrene in…

Die Bestimmung der Molekulargewichtsverteilung von nichtkristallisierenden Polymeren mit dem Elektronenmikroskop, 5. Bestimmung der Masse der Einzelm…

1977

A method is described for the determination of the molecular weight distribution (MWD) of various polymers from electron microscopy pictures of their molecules. It is shown, that the number of molecules needed to construct the distribution is between 200 and 300. Furthermore, with macroscopic density of the polymer and the volume determined by electron microscopy, the correct mass of a single molecule is obtained. The method is demonstrated for samples of polystyrene and poly(methyl methacrylate) and the results are compared with those of GPC-measurements.

An apparatus is presented for the precise measurement of vapour pressures. It is tested with diethyl ether and applied to the system tert-butyle acetate/polystyrene (weight-average molecular weight Mw = 110000) up to polymer concentrations of ca. 60 wt.-% in the temperature range from 10 to 90°C; by means of the Redlich-Kister equation the results can well be described analytically. The data are evaluated to yield the Flory-Huggins parameter in the subsequent article in conjunction with other experimental information.

Fate of Epdxides

1982

One of the most important reactions of epoxides appears to be the covalent binding to DNA which can lead to mutagenicity and is strongly suspected to be the primary lesion ultimately leading to initiation of cancer (Miller and Miller, 1974; Oesch, 1973; Jerina and Daly, 1974; Sims and Grover, 1974; Heidelberger, 1975; Gelboin et al., 1972). This review first describes structure-activity relationships for the mutagenicity of some epoxides and then outlines some findings on the metabolic control of the concentration of such epoxides by a number of enzymes.

Bulk morphologies of polystyrene-block-polybutadiene-block-poly(tert-butyl methacrylate) triblock terpolymers

2015

Abstract The self-assembly of block copolymers in the bulk phase enables the formation of complex nanostructures with sub 100 nm periodicities and long-range order, both relevant for nanotechnology applications. Here, we map the bulk phase behavior of polystyrene-block-polybutadiene-block-poly(tert-butyl methacrylate) (SBT) triblock terpolymers on a series of narrowly distributed polymers with widely different block volume fractions, ϕS, ϕB and ϕT. In dependence of ϕ, we find the lamella–lamella, core-shell cylinder, cylinder-in-lamella and core-shell gyroid morphology, but also a rarely observed cylinder-in-lamella phase. The bulk morphologies are thoroughly characterized by transmission e…

Fast Response Heating Module for Temperature Programmed GC Analysis in Microreaction Systems

2000

For monitoring the reactant and product concentrations of a gas phase microreactor for ethylene oxide synthesis the development of a miniaturised device for fast GC analysis suitable for operation in conjunction with the microreactor is advantageous. Therefore, a method employing short (0.2 – 0.4 m) packed capillary columns was developed. Highly crosslinked polystyrene microspheres proved to be the most suitable adsorbent enabling a high separation efficiency. For fast temperature programming design concepts for an efficient heating module capable to be used with short capillary columns were developed. In principle, planar as well as cylindrical designs are suitable for integration of a res…

ChemInform Abstract: Hydrophobically Directed Aldol Reactions: Polystyrene-Supported L-Proline as a Recyclable Catalyst for Direct Asymmetric Aldol R…

2008

A simple synthetic methodology for the preparation of a polystyrene-supported L-proline material is reported, and this material has been used as catalyst in direct asymmetric aldol reactions between several ketones and arylaldehydes to furnish aldol products in high yields and stereoselectivities. Screening of solvents showed that these reactions take place only in the presence of water or methanol, at lower levels of conversion in the latter case. This solvent effect, coupled with the observed high stereoselectivities, has been explained in terms of the formation of a hydrophobic core in the inner surface of the resin, whereas the hydrophilic proline moiety lies at the resin/water interfac…
