A catalytic amount of fluoride anions promoted the polymerization of 1-pentafluorophenyl-4-[(trimethylsilyl)ethynyl]benzene, providing a high-molecular-weight polymer in a chain-growth-like manner.

Characteristics of viscous fingering patterns in polymer solutions were investigated by introducing air into a radial Hele-Shaw cell, in which high molecular weight Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) solution was placed. HPMC chains form a chain entanglement easily, which leads to an increase in elasticity. The resulting patterns showed a drastic morphological change from highly branched patterns to tip-splitting patterns to skewering patterns, with an increase in injection pressure. Such a crossover in the fingering patterns could be well correlated with the characteristic quantities of pattern growth, such as the finger width and tip velocity.

The capsular polysaccharide of Haemophilus pleuropneumoniae serotype 2 (ATCC 27089) is composed of D-glucose (two parts), D-galactose (one part), glycerol (one part), and phosphate (one part). Hydrolysis, dephosphorylation, methylation, enzymic studies, and 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance experiments showed that the polysaccharide is a high molecular weight polymer of a tetrasaccharide repeating units, linked by monophosphate diester and having the following structure:[Formula: see text]

We have shown that cytotoxic T cell clones specific for the nominal antigen FL will bind high molecular weight (600,000 to 2,000,000) polyacrylamide and Ficoll polymers conjugated with 200-600 FL groups per molecule. Low molecular weight polymers (40,000) with the same epitope density did not give stable binding. A high molecular weight polymer with a lower epitope density also failed to bind. Taken together, these results suggest that a substantial degree of multivalence is a necessary factor in the stable binding of nominal antigen to T cell clones.
