The aim of the work was to develop methods for the synthesis and study of the properties of silicon-containing oligomeric azo- and polyazoinitiators based on bis-γ-hydroxypropylpolysiloxane (HPS) and bis-γ-aminopropylpolysiloxane (APS). Silicon-containing oligomeric azoinitiators using HPS were synthesized on the basis of cyclohexanone azo-bis-isobutyrohydrazone (AGN-CH) and bis-γ-hydroxypropylpolysiloxane bifunctional macrodiisocyanate (MDIHPS). MDIHPS was obtained by the interaction of GPS with 2,4 toluene diisocyanate (2,4-TDI). Oligomeric azoinitiators have been obtained, which have the structure RXR and (RX)nR, where R is a propylpolysiloxane block, X is a azo initiator block. For the synthesis of an oligomeric azo initiator based on bis-γ-aminopropyl polysiloxane (APS), a method was first developed for the synthesis of a monomeric azo initiator with terminal oxadiazolinylcarbamanate isocyanate groups (AGN-NCO) by the interaction of AGN-CH and 2,4-TDI at a molar ratio of 1: 2. On the basis of the obtained AGN-NCO and APS at a molar ratio of AGN-NCO: APS = 1: 1, an oligomeric azo initiator (OAI APS-P) was synthesized, which has the structure (RX)nR, where R is a propylpolysiloxane block, X is an azo initiator block. The structures of monomeric and oligomeric azo initiators have been studied by UV and IR spectroscopy, and the kinetic regularities of their synthesis have been calculated. On the basis of oligomeric azo initiators and styrene, block copolymers of the (AB)nA type were obtained by the method of thermal and photoinitiated radical polymerization, where A is a propylpolysiloxane block, B is an oligosyrene block with a constant value of the organosilicon block and a different size of the oligostyrene block. The structure of block copolymers was investigated by IR spectroscopy. It was shown that during photopolymerization, oligostyrene blocks of shorter length are formed than during thermopolymerization, and possible oxidation processes. The study of relaxation transitions by DSC in oligostyrene and propylpolysiloxane blocks of the BCP showed that the common heat capacity curves are the presence of two jumps in the heat capacity at the glass transition temperatures of the polysiloxane and oligostyrene microphase. A slight shift in the glass transition temperature of polysiloxane microphases in BCP towards higher temperatures compared to the homopolymer may be associated with the effect of oligostyrene microphase. With a decrease in the length of the oligosyrene block, a low-temperature shift in the glass transition temperature of oligostyrene blocks relative to the homopolymer and a depression of ∆Cp,2 are observed, which is associated with the suppression of mobility in oligodienic microphases by less mobile propylpolysiloxane blocks.

Nanocomposites based on hyperbranched polymers and sodium montmorillonite were prepared over the full range of compositions. The XRD analysis showed the full exfoliation of silicate layers at lower silicate content (up to 9.1 wt%). With the further increase of silicate loading, an intercalated structure was developed with a constant d-spacing due to the unique structure of hyperbranched polymers. The heat capacity jump at the glass transition of the nanocomposites was found to deviate from the two-phase model prediction, indicating the formation of a rigid amorphous fraction. The glass transition temperature and heat capacity jump behaviors suggested that the molecular mobility of hyperbranched polymers were restricted by the introduction of silicate layers. The mechanical properties of the nanocomposites were also investigated.

A measuring technique based on multisensor hot-wire anemometry has been developed to determine the unsteady three-dimensional velocity vector and the structure of turbulent flows. It then has been applied to the passage and the exit flow of an annular compressor cascade, which is periodically disturbed by the wakes of a cylinder rotor, located about 50 percent of blade chord upstream. In part I of this paper the decay of the rotor wakes will be described first without stator and secondly through a stator passage. The time-dependent turbulent flow field downstream of this stator is discussed in Part II. The rotor wakes have a major influence on the development of three-dimensional separated regions inside the compressor cascade, and this interaction will be addressed in both parts of this paper.

Crystallization of metal-metalloid glasses is known to proceed by nucleation and growth processes. Using crystallization statistics in partially crystallized glasses, at temperatures below the glass transition temperature, time-dependent heterogeneous nucleation has been found to occur at a number of quenched-in nucleation sites [1]. Close to the glass transition temperature crystallization proceeds so rapidly that partially crystallized microstructures could not be obtained. Initial results from fully crystallized glasses exhibit evidence for a transient homogeneous nucleation process at higher temperatures [1,2].

Abstract Thermodynamic properties of selected honeys: glass transition temperature (Tg), the change in specifi c heat capacity (ΔCp), and enthalpy (ΔH) were analysed using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in relation to the composition i.e. water and sugar content. Glass transition temperatures (Tg) of various types of honey differed significantly (p<0.05) and ranged from -49.7°C (polyfloral) to -34.8°C (sunflower). There was a strong correlation between the Tg values and the moisture content in honey (r = -0.94). The degree of crystallisation of the honey also influenced the Tg values. It has been shown that the presence or absence of sugar crystals influenced the glass transition temperature. For the decrystallised honeys, the Tg values were 6 to 11°C lower than for the crystallised honeys. The more crystallised a honey was, the greater the temperature difference was between the decrystallised and crystallized honey. In conclusion, to obtain reliable DSC results, it is crucial to measure the glass transition after the complete liquefaction of honey.
