Initial Viscosity

Aqueous solutions of a 1 weight-per cent poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) were degassed under vacuum, transferred to a parallel plate viscometer under a nitrogen gas blanket, and exposed to Co60 gamma radiation. The Co60 source was rated at 4000 curies, and the dose ratewas 3.8x105 rads/hr. The poly (ethylene oxide) employed in the irradiations had an initial viscosity average molecular weight of 2.1 x 106.The solutions were gelled by a free radical reaction with dosages ranging from 5x104 rads to 4.8x106 rads.

The sequential polypeptides (Lys-Ala)n, (Lys-Ala-Ala)n, (Lys-Ala-Ala-Ala)n, (Lys-Leu-Ala)n, (Lys-Leu-Ala-Ala)n, (Lys-Leu-Ala-Ala-Ala)n, (Lys-Ala-Leu)n, (Lys-Ala-Leu-Ala)n, (Orn-Leu-Ala)n,(Arg-Ala-Ala)n, (Arg-Leu-Ala)n, (Arg-Leu-Ala-Ala)n, (Arg-Ala-Leu)n, and (Arg-Ala-Leu-Ala)n were synthesized by polymerization of active esters (1-succinimidyl or pentafluorophenyl) of the corresponding Nα-deblocked monomers. The monomers were prepared using the usual methods of peptide synthesis in solution. Upon dialysis, the average molecular weight of the polymer was 6 000-9 000 as determined by sedimentation in ultracentrifuge. Polypeptides, containing leucine in addition to the basic amino acid, showed a marked tendency to aggregation. CD spectra of the products were measured for characterization.

Catalytic activity of the tungsten aryloxo complexes WCl5(OAr) and WOCl3(OAr), where Ar = 4-t-C4H9C6H4, 2,6-(t-C4H9)2C6H3, 2,6-Cl2C6H3, 2,4,6-Cl3C6H2, and 2,4,6-Br3C6H2 in polymerization of phenylacetylene (20 °C, monomer to catalyst molar ratio = 1 000) was studied. The activity of WCl5(OAr) as unicomponent catalysts increases with increasing electron withdrawing character of the -OAr ligand. Addition of two equivalents of organotin cocatalysts (Me4Sn, Bu4Sn, Ph4Sn, Bu3SnH) to WCl5(O-C6H2Cl3-2,4 ,6) has only slight positive effect (slightly higher polymer yield and/or molecular weight of poly(phenylacetylene)s was achieved). However, in the case of WOCl3(O-C6H3Cl2-2, 6) catalyst, it enhances the activity considerably by eliminating the induction period. Poly(phenylacetylene)s prepared with the catalysts studied have weight-average molecular weight ranging from 100 000 to 200 000. They are trans-prevailing and have relatively low molar fraction of monomer units comprised in cyclohexadiene sequences (about 6%).

The neutral polysaccharide α-D-glucan was isolated from the flowers of Malva silvestris L., ssp. mauritiana (L.) THELL. using a combination of ion exchange and gel chromatography. It was homogeneous under the conditions of free electrophoresis of average molecular weight Mn 25260. The chemical and spectroscopic investigations indicated a linear structure of the polysaccharide in which the α-D-glucopyranose units were linked predominantly by 1→6 glycosidic bonds, while some saccharides were the place of branching in position C-3.

In this paper, we developed a reactive molecular dynamics (RMD) scheme to simulate the Self-Stable Precipitation (SP) polymerization of 1-pentene and cyclopentene (C5) with maleic anhydride (MAn) in an all-atom resolution. We studied the chain propagation mechanism by tracking the changes in molecular conformation and analyzing end-to-end distance and radius of gyration. The results show that the main reason of chain termination in the reaction process was due to intramolecular cyclic entanglement, which made the active center wrapped in the center of the globular chain. After conducting the experiment in the same condition with the simulation, we found that the distribution trend and peak value of the molecular-weight-distribution curve in the simulation were consistent with experimental results. The simulated number average molecular weight (Mn) and weight average molecular weight (Mw) were in good agreement with the experiment. Moreover, the simulated molecular polydispersity index (PDI) for cyclopentene reaction with maleic anhydride was accurate, differing by 0.04 from the experimental value. These show that this model is suitable for C5–maleic anhydride self-stable precipitation polymerization and is expected to be used as a molecular weight prediction tool for other maleic anhydride self-stable precipitation polymerization system.
