Abstract Crosslink density of EPDM vulcanizates, both gum and filled, has been evaluated from stress-strain measurements on both dry and swollen samples, by plotting the data according to the Mooney-Rivlin diagram. Values of the C1 constant of swollen specimens were generally found to be much higher than those of the dry ones, and the difference was ascribed to the effect of entanglements, which probably act as stable crosslinks in swollen networks. The Flory-Huggins equation has also been studied and its applicability to EPDM vulcanizates examined ; a large degree of uncertainty was found for the polymer-solvent interaction parameter, μ, that suggests the use of this equation with reservation in the case of EPDM elastomers. Many data of the Mooney-Rivlin C2 constant being available, its dependence on various parameters has been investigated and the hypothesis has been confirmed that it is associated with entanglements and intermolecular structure. The stress-strain curves of samples filled with both mineral and black fillers were analysed using the Mullins and Tobin “strain amplification factor.” This technique, which allows one to describe the behavior of the rubber phase in filled vulcanizates, has given good results that endorse the use of the Mooney-Rivlin plot for the characterization of rubbery networks. The Mooney-Rivlin constants also gave very interesting results for the investigation of the networks obtained from curing elastomer blends.

AbstractPecoraite and nepouite, Ni-serpentines, occur in the serpentinized ultramafic rocks in the Kwangcheon area, Korea, where the parent rock is classified as harzburgite and/or lherzolite. Pecoraite was precipitated twice from the solution; the early-formed pecoraite coexists with magnetite, millerite, and polydymite both in the Buk- and Nam-sites, while the late-formed pecoraite appears as well-grown colloform and opaque-free phase only in the Buk-site. The typical colloform texture of the late-formed pecoraite strongly indicates that it was precipitated from the solution in supergene conditions. Pecoraite is characterized by its extremely high Ni content and the difference in Fe content between the early- and late-formed pecoraite. Nepouite is distinguished from pecoraite by its prismatic morphology and the large degree of isomorphous substitution between Ni and Mg. The phase relations among coexisting magnetite-millerite-polydymite assemblage with the early-formed pecoraite suggest that the pecoraite might have precipitated in the extremely limited fO2 and fs2 environment from the highly Ni-concentrated solutions and is stable at 25°C and 1 bar.

The natural variation of Arabidopsis thaliana in response to a bromovirus, Spring beauty latent virus (SBLV), was examined. Of 63 Arabidopsis accessions tested, all were susceptible when inoculated with SBLV, although there was a large degree of variation in symptom development. Most accessions, including Columbia (Col-0), were symptomless or developed only mild symptoms, but four accessions, including S96, showed severe symptoms of SBLV infection. Genetic analysis suggested that the difference in the responses of Col-0 and S96 to SBLV was controlled by a single semidominant locus. We have designated this locus SSB1 (symptom development by SBLV infection). By using genetic markers, SSB1 was mapped to chromosome IV. The patterns of distribution and accumulation of SBLV in sensitive accessions were similar to those in the insensitive accessions. In addition, symptom development in S96 by SBLV infection was critically interrupted by the presence of the NahG gene, which encodes salicylic acid (SA) hydroxylase. These data suggest that symptom development in A. thaliana controlled by SSB1 is independent of the efficiency of SBLV multiplication and is dependent on SA signaling.

Abstract Unidirectional cord-rubber specimens in the form of tensile coupons and sandwich beams were used. Using specimens with the cords oriented at 0°, 45°, and 90° to the loading direction and appropriate data reduction, we were able to obtain complete characterization for the in-plane stress-strain response of single-ply, unidirectional cord-rubber composites. All strains were measured by means of liquid mercury strain gages, for which the nonlinear strain response characteristic was obtained by calibration. Stress-strain data were obtained for the cases of both cord tension and cord compression. Materials investigated were aramid-rubber, polyester-rubber, and steel-rubber.

The Difference

Reversible adsorption of heptane and benzene on model and industrial hydrodesulphurization molybdena catalysts has been studied by elution chromatographic method at 150 °C. An increase in the adsorption of heptane on sulphidation of adsorbents was small for Al2O3 and great for MoO3. Supported catalysts behaved as mixture of Al2O3 and MoO3.The portion of surface which can be transformed by sulphidation into MoS2 ranged from 0 to 65% for individual commercial catalysts, as determined from the change in heptane adsorption after sulphidation of a given sample. The polarity of catalysts, including their acidity, was estimated from the difference between adsorption of benzene and heptane. The polarity of model and industrial catalysts in oxidic form was similar to that of alumina in most cases. The decrease in the polarity after sulphidation of the adsorbents was small for Al2O3 and great for MoO3. The decrease in polarity resulting from sulphidation of supported catalysts was relatively small, since the reaction of MoO3 monolayer with hydrogen sulphide leads to partial reformation of the alumina surface. The acidity of supported sulphided hydrodesulphurization catalysts has been shown by this method to be comparable with the acidity of the support itself.

The Difference

1-Methylpiperazine was coupled with a series of diazonium salts to afford the 1-methyl-4-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]piperazines (2), a new series of triazenes, which have been characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. Assignment of the chemical shifts to specific protons and carbons in the piperazine ring was facilitated by comparison with the chemical shifts in the model compounds piperazine and 1-methylpiperazine and by a HETCOR experiment with the p-tolyl derivative (2i). A DEPT experiment with 1-methylpiperazine (6) was necessary to distinguish the methyl and methylene groups in 6, and a HETCOR spectrum of 6 enabled the correlation of proton and carbon chemical shifts. Line broadening of the signals from the ring methylene protons is attributed to restricted rotation around the N2-N3 bond of the triazene moiety in 2. The second series of triazenes, the ethyl 4-[2-phenyl-1-diazenyl]-1-piperazinecarboxylates (3), have been prepared by similar diazonium coupling to ethyl 1-piperazinecarboxylate and were similarly characterized. The chemical shifts of the piperazine ring protons are much closer together in series 3 than in series 2, resulting in distortion of the multiplets for these methylenes. It was noticed that the difference between these chemical shifts in 3 exhibited a linear free energy relationship with the Hammett substituent constants for the substituents in the aryl ring. Key words: triazene, piperazine, diazonium coupling, NMR, HETCOR, linear free energy relationship.
