Diolefins, produced by thermal dehydration of disubstituted allyl alcohols in a static system, polymerize as they are formed giving low molecular weight polymers. The microstructure of the product is similar to that of thermal polymers of 1,3-dienes. Number- and weight-average molecular weights, partial specific volumes, and molecular weight distributions have been studied for the polymers obtained from 3-methyl-2-butene-1-ol and 3,3-dimethyl-allyl alcohol.

Molecular weights were independently determined on nitrous acid depolymerized LMW heparin fractions ranging from 2-15 daltons using the analytical ultracentrifuge and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC).Sedimentation-diffusion equilibria were obtained in the analytical ultracentrifuge using speeds ranging from 20,000 to 56,000 rpm. Near theta conditions were obtained using 0.5M NaCl as the solvent. Calculations of molecular weight distributions and, from those figures, weight average molecular weights were made using the method described by Scholte (N.Y. Acad Sci. 164, 156, 1969). The results show that weight average values as low as 2,000 daltons can be determined.Sedimentation-diffusion equilibria were obtained in the analytical ultracentrifuge using speeds ranging from 20,000 to 56,000 rpm.

Fractionated dextrans were used as reference standards.

Environmentally benign adhesive was synthesized by dispersion copolymerization of styrene(St) and butyl acrylate (BA) in an ethanol medium with benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as the initiator and poly(vinylpyrrolidone) as the stabilizer in the presence of acrylic acid(AA) as the functional monomer. The effect of the concentration of stabilizer, initiator and functional monomer on the conversions, molecular weights and molecular weight distributions was investigated. The results show that the conversions almost keep invariable with the increasing of stabilizer concentration, but the molecular weights increase and molecular weight distributions decrease. Conversions increase with the increasing of initiator concentration, but the molecular weights and molecular weight distributions decrease. However with the increasing of functional monomer concentration, conversions and molecular weight distributions increase but the molecular weights decrease.

Abstract A preparative fractionation of about 23 g of a commercial cis-polybutadiene rubber is described. The method employed was a solvent elution chromatographic method with very little temperature gradient. The molecular weight distributions of the fractions obtained were determined by an analytical fractionation of 20 mg of polymer. The method was similar to the preparative fractionation and involved solvent elution chromatography. The fractions obtained were assayed for quantity, molecular weight, and molecular weight distribution by GPC. The low molecular weight fractions of the preparative fractionation had molecular weight distributions which could be closely approximated by two log normal distributions, the low molecular weight component having the narrower width. The ratio of weight to number average molecular weight was found to be about 1.1 for these samples. The higher molecular weight fractions could also be approximated by two log normal distributions; however, in these fractions the low molecular weight component had a very broad distribution but constituted only a small portion of the sample. The widths of the GPC curves of the fractions correlate satisfactorily with the molecular weight distributions found by the analytical refractionations. The GPC width is a sensitive criterion of the width of the molecular weight distribution even when only two columns are used. It is felt that the analytical fractionation procedure presented gives more detailed information on the molecular weight distribution than is easily obtainable from an ordinary GPC curve.

In this study, we investigated direct-controlled/living cationic polymerization and copolymerization of 4-vinylguaiacol (4VG), i.e., 4-hydroxy-3-methoxystyrene, which can be derived from naturally-occurring ferulic acid, to develop novel bio-based amphiphilic polystyrenes with phenol functions. The controlled/living cationic polymerization of 4VG was achieved using the R–OH/BF3·OEt2 initiating system, which is effective for the controlled/living polymerization of petroleum-derived 4-vinylphenol in the presence of a large amount of water via reversible activation of terminal C–OH bond catalyzed by BF3·OEt2, to result in the polymers with controlled molecular weights and narrow molecular weight distributions. The random or block copolymerization of 4VG was also examined using p-methoxystyrene (pMOS) as a comonomer with an aqueous initiating system to tune the amphiphilic nature of the 4VG-derived phenolic polymers. The obtained polymer can be expected not only to be used as a novel styrenic bio-based polymer but also as a material with amphiphilic nature for some applications.

It is known that the rheological properties of mixtures of organic compounds are functions of molecular weight distributions. However, with respect to asphalts, which are composed of many different compounds and compound types, molecular weights are difficult to measure. This difficulty occurs because the molecular associations that form are held together by forces of varying strengths and are partly broken up by heat and solvents. In theory, the strongest molecular associations in asphalts should have the greatest influence on the rheological properties of asphalts. These associations would be expected to be the major contributors to the asphalt's behaving as if it were a relatively high molecular weight material. Asphalt molecular associations should be isolatable by means of size exclusion chromatography. Several fractions of varying molecular weights (measured by membrane osmometry and vapor phase osmometry) were isolated from Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) asphalt AAD-1 by preparative size exclusion chromatography. Molecular weights of these fractions ranged from approximately 2,000 daltons to over 40,000 daltons. When these fractions were independently mixed with asphalt AAD-1 solvent moiety, mixtures were obtained whose rheological properties were a function of the molecular weights and concentrations of the associated materials. These results support the microstructural model of asphalt proposed during SHRP. The results also suggest that the unusual rheological properties of some asphalts may be explained by measuring molecular weight distributions. This type of information may be useful for modification of asphalts to achieve desirable rheological properties.

Abstract Structure-property relationships were investigated in hyperbranched polyisobutylenes, in comparison with commercial linear butyl rubber. The gel-free, soluble hyperbranched polyisobutylenes, synthesized by living carbocationic polymerization, had molecular weights, Mw≈400,000 to 1,000,000 g/mol, molecular weight distributions, MWD ≈1.2 to 2.6, and branching frequencies, BR ≈ 4 to 60. The mechanical and viscoelastic characterization of these polymers revealed interesting properties, including the characteristics of crosslinked rubbers.

The structures of some poly(organosilylenes), [Formula: see text] (R = Ph, p-tolyl, n-hexyl, and benzyl), produced by catalytic dehydrogenative coupling of primary silanes have been studied by infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance, and mass spectroscopies. These results, combined with data on molecular weights and molecular weight distributions from vapour pressure osmometry and gel permeation chromatography, lead to the conclusion that the polymers are linear and have SiH2R end groups. The polymers all have degrees of polymerization of ca. 10 and very narrow molecular weight dipersions. Some possible features of the mechanism that gives rise to this behaviour are discussed.

Abstract The results of this study are the first to show that high-1,4 linear α,ω-dihydroxypolydienes can be synthesized with (a) predictable molecular weights, (b) narrow molecular weight distributions, and (c) high functionalities. Using the functionalized polyisoprenes prepared in this work, a series of networks was prepared with a purified triisocyanate as the chain linking agent. The soluble fraction in these networks ranged from 4.6 to 1.6 per cent. The characteristics and physical properties of these networks will be the subject of a forthcoming publication.
