In an ongoing effort to understand the thermodynamic properties of proteins, solid-state heat capacities of poly(amino acid)s of all 20 naturally occurring amino acids and 4 copoly(amino acid)s have been previously reported on and were analyzed using our Advanced THermal Analysis System (ATHAS). We extend the heat capacities of poly(L-methionine) (PLMFT) and poly(L-phenylalanine) (PLPHEA) with new low temperature measurements from 10 to 340 K. In addition, analyses were performed on literature data of a first protein, zinc bovine insulin dimer C508H752O150N130S12Zn, using both the ATHAS empirical addition scheme and computation with an approximate vibrational spectrum for the protein. For the solid state, agreement with the measurement could be accomplished to ±1.6% for PLMET, ±3.5% for PLPHEA, and ±3.2% for insulin, linking the macroscopic heat capacity to its microscopic cause, the group and skeletal vibrational motion. For each polymer, one set of parameters, Θ1 and Θ3, of the Tarasov function representing the skeletal vibrational contribution to the heat capacity are obtained from a new optimization procedure [PLMET: 542 K and 83 K (number of skeletal vibrations Ns = 15); PLPHEA: 396 K and 67 K (Ns = 11); and insulin monomer: 599 K and 79 K (Ns = 628), respectively]. Enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs free energy have been derived for the solid state. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Copolyamides based on polyamide‐6,6 (PA‐6,6) were prepared by solid‐state modification (SSM). Para‐ and meta‐xylylenediamine were successfully incorporated into the aliphatic PA‐6,6 backbone at 200 and 230 °C under an inert gas flow. In the initial stage of the SSM below the melting temperature of PA‐6,6, a decrease of the molecular weight was observed due to chain scission, followed by a built up of the molecular weight and incorporation of the comonomer by postcondensation during the next stage. When the solid‐state copolymerization was continued for a sufficiently long time, the starting PA‐6,6 molecular weight was regained. The incorporation of the comonomer into the PA‐6,6 main chain was confirmed by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) with ultraviolet detection, which showed the presence of aromatic moieties in the final high‐molecular weight SSM product. The occurrence of the transamidation reaction was also proven by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. As the transamidation was limited to the amorphous phase, this SSM resulted in a nonrandom overall structure of the PA copolymer as shown by the degree of randomness determined using 13C NMR spectroscopy. The thermal properties of the SSM products were compared with melt‐synthesized copolyamides of similar chemical composition. The higher melting and higher crystallization temperatures of the solid state‐modified copolyamides confirmed their nonrandom, block‐like chemical microstructure, whereas the melt‐synthesized copolyamides were random. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Poly(o‐methoxyaniline) (POMA) and poly(o‐toluidine) (POT) salts doped with different acids (methanesulphonic acid (MeSA), trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), and hydrochloric acid (HCl)) were synthesized by using solid‐state polymerization method. The polymers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) spectrometry, X‐ray diffraction (XRD), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and conductivity measurements. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was done to study the morphologies of POMA and POT salts. The FTIR and UV‐Vis absorption spectra revealed that the reduced phase was predominant in POMA salts, and the pernigraniline phase was predominant in POT salts. It was found that POMA salts displayed higher doping level and conductivity. In contrast, POT salts were lower at doping levels and conductivity. In accordance with these results, the electrochemical activity was also found to be lower in POT salts. The XRD patterns showed that the POMA salts displayed higher crystallinity than POT salts. The results from TEM revealed that the morphologies of POMA salts were different from those of POT salts. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The low‐temperature heat capacity of poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) was measured from 5 to 330 K. The experimental heat capacity of solid PBT, below the glass transition, was linked to its approximate group and skeletal vibrational spectrum. The 21 skeletal vibrations were estimated with a general Tarasov equation with the parameters Θ1 = 530 K and Θ2 = Θ3 = 55 K. The calculated and experimental heat capacities of solid PBT agreed within better than ±3% between 5 and 200 K. The newly calculated vibrational heat capacity of the solid from this study and the liquid heat capacity from the ATHAS Data Bank were applied as reference values for a quantitative thermal analysis of the apparent heat capacity of semicrystalline PBT between the glass and melting transitions as obtained by differential scanning calorimetry. From these results, the integral thermodynamic functions (enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs function) of crystalline and amorphous PBT were calculated. Finally, the changes in the crystallinity with the temperature were analyzed. With the crystallinity, a baseline was constructed that separated the thermodynamic heat capacity from cold crystallization, reorganization, annealing, and melting effects contained in the apparent heat capacity. For semicrystalline PBT samples, the mobile‐amorphous and rigid‐amorphous fractions were estimated to complete the thermal analysis. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The heat capacity of crystalline poly(p‐phenylenebenzobisoxazole) was measured below room temperature by adiabatic calorimetry. The standard thermodynamic functions (enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs energy) were established and tabulated. The temperature dependence of the heat capacity was compared with those of polyethylene and poly(p‐phenylene), with attention paid to the low dimensionality of the systems. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Poly(vinyl alcohol)‐graft‐poly(1,4‐dioxan‐2‐one) (PVA‐g‐PPDO) with designed molecular structure was synthesized by a solid‐state polymerization. The solid‐state copolymerization was preceded by a graft copolymerization of PDO initiated with PVA as a multifunctional initiator, and Sn (Oct)2 as a coininitiator/catalyst in a homogeneous molten state. The polymerization temperature was then decreased and the copolymerization was carried out in a solid state. The products prepared by solid‐state polymerization were characterized by 1H NMR and DSC, and were compared with those synthesized in the homogeneous molten state. The degree of polymerization (Dp), degree of substitution (Ds), yield and the average molecular weight of the graft copolymer with different molecular structure were calculated from the 1H NMR spectra. The results show that the crystallization process during the solid‐state polymerization may suppress the undesirable inter‐ or intramolecular side reactions, then resulting in a controlled molecular structure of PVA‐g‐PPDO. The results of DSC measurement show that the molecular structures determine the thermal behavior of the PVA‐g‐PPDO. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Melt‐crystallized, low molecular weight poly(L ‐lactic acid) (PLLA) consisting of α crystals was uniaxially drawn by solid‐state extrusion at an extrusion temperature (Text) of 130–170 °C. A series of extrusion‐drawn samples were prepared at an optimum Text value of 170 °C, slightly below the melting temperature (Tm) of α crystals (~180 °C). The drawn products were characterized by deformation flow profiles, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) melting thermograms, wide‐angle X‐ray scattering (WAXD), and small‐angle X‐ray scattering as a function of the extrusion draw ratio (EDR). The deformation mode in the solid‐state extrusion of semicrystalline PLLA was more variable and complex than that in the extensional deformation expected in tensile drawing, which generally gave a mixture of α and β crystals. The deformation profile was extensional at a low EDR and transformed to a parabolic shear pattern at a higher EDR. At a given EDR, the central portion of an extrudate showed extensional deformation and the shear component became progressively more significant, moving from the center to the surface region. The WAXD intensities of the (0010)α and (003)β reflections on the meridian as well as the DSC melting thermograms showed that the crystal transformation from the initial α form to the oriented β form proceeded rapidly with increasing EDR at an EDR greater than 4. Furthermore, WAXD showed that the crystal transformation proceeded slightly more rapidly at the sheath region than at the core region. This fact, combined with the deformation profiles (shear at the sheath and extensional at the core), indicated that the crystal transformation was promoted by shear deformation under a high pressure rather than by extensional deformation. Thus, a highly oriented rod consisting of only β crystals was obtained by solid‐state extrusion of melt‐crystallized, low molecular weight PLLA slightly below Tm. The structure and properties of the α‐ and β‐form crystals were also studied. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 40: 95–104, 2002 相似文献

The amino acid tryptophan has been converted into acrylamide monomers using L /D ‐tryptophan methyl ester forming the enantiopure chiral monomers. Attempts were made to polymerize these monomers via reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization to form poly(tryptophan). Unfortunately, this proved difficult, and instead, a postpolymerization modification route was used by first synthesizing poly(pentafluorophenyl acrylate) via RAFT, which was then substituted with L ‐tryptophan methyl ester to give poly(L ‐tryptophan). The interactions of the newly synthesized tryptophan monomers, as well as previously reported phenylalanine monomers, were studied in the presence of rac‐BINOL. It has been shown that the enantiomers of tryptophan have a stronger interaction with BINOL than phenylalanine and this has been attributed to the larger π system on the side chain. By monitoring the shifts and splitting of the phenolic protons of BINOL, it has been observed that S‐BINOL interacts more favorably with L ‐monomer enantiomers and R‐BINOL with D ‐monomer enantiomers. Similar interactions have also been seen with poly(phenylalanine) and the newly synthesized poly(tryptophan) materials. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2012 相似文献

Oriented poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) films with β‐form crystals have been commonly prepared by cold drawing of a melt‐quenched film consisting of α‐form crystals. In this study, we have successfully produced highly oriented PVDF thin films (20 µm thick) with β‐crystals and a high crystallinity (55–76%), by solid‐state coextrusion of a gel film to eight times the original length at an established optimum extrusion temperature of 160°C, some 10°C below the melting temperature. The resultant drawn films had a highly oriented (orientation function fc = 0.993) fibrous structure, showing high mechanical properties of an extensional elastic modulus of 8.3 GPa and tensile strength of 0.84 GPa, along the draw direction. Such highly oriented and crystalline films exhibited excellent ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties. The square hysteresis loop was significantly sharper than that of a conventional sample. The sharp switching transient yielded the remnant polarization Pr of 90 mC/m2, and the electromechanical coupling factor kt was 0.24 at room temperature. These values are about 1.5 times greater than those of a conventional β‐PVDF film. Thus, solid‐state coextrusion near the melting point was found to be a useful technique for the preparation of highly oriented and highly crystalline β‐PVDF films with superior mechanical and electrical properties. The morphology of the extrudate relevant to such properties is discussed. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 37: 2549–2556, 1999 相似文献

A new regular poly(ester amide) consisting of glycolic acid and 12‐aminododecanoic acid was synthesized by a thermal polycondensation method involving the formation of a metal halide salt. Polymerization could start in liquefied or solid phases, depending on the reaction temperature. The polymerization kinetics were investigated by isothermal and nonisothermal isoconversional methods. The reaction model was selected with both Coats–Redfern and isokinetic relationships. The activation energy was higher when the reaction took place mainly in the solid state. A compensation effect was found between the frequency factor and the activation energy. The thermal properties of the new polymer were studied as well as the isothermal crystallization from the melt state. Melt‐grown spherulites were studied by means of polarizing optical microscopy. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 44: 1199–1213, 2006 相似文献

The first use of PSn‐b‐PEOm‐b‐PSn block copolymers (PS = polystyrene, PEO = poly(ethylene oxide)) as solid hosts for iodine/iodide electrolytes in dye‐sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) is described. Using the benchmark photosensitizer N719, DSSC based on the quasi solid‐state electrolytes afforded efficiencies up to 6.7%, to be compared with an efficiency of 7.3% obtained in similar conditions with a conventional iodine/iodide liquid electrolyte. By varying the PS:PEO relative volume ratio in the block copolymers different properties and morphologies were obtained. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym.

Poly(L ‐lactic acid) (PLLA) (? CH(CH3) ? COO? )n is a biodegradable polymer, which exhibits many applications in the biomedical field and where thermoplastics are employed. A comprehensive study of the normal modes and their dispersion in PLLA using Wilson′s GF matrix method as modified by Higgs is being reported. Assignments of calculated normal modes have been made and characteristic features of dispersion curves are discussed. Heat capacity has been calculated via density‐of‐states using Debye relation in the temperature range 10–250 K, which is in fairly good agreement with the experimental data. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Gel films of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) consisting of α‐form crystals were drawn uniaxially by solid‐state coextrusion to extrusion draw ratios (EDR) up to 9 at an optimum extrusion temperature of 160 °C, about 10°C below the melting temperature (Tm). The development of an oriented structure and mechanical and electrical properties on coextrusion drawing were studied as a function of EDR. Wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction patterns showed that the α crystals in the original gel films were progressively transformed into oriented β‐form crystals with increasing EDR. At the highest EDR of 9 achieved, the drawn product consisted of a highly oriented fibrous morphology with only β crystals even for the draw near the Tm. The dynamic Young's modulus along the draw direction also increased with EDR up to 10.5 GPa at the maximum EDR of 9. The electrical properties of ferroelectricity and piezoelectricity were also markedly enhanced on solid‐state coextrusion. The D–E square hysteresis loop became significantly sharper with EDR, and a remanent polarization Pr of 100 mC/m2 and electromechanical coupling factor along the thickness direction kt of 0.27 were achieved at the maximum EDR of 9. The crystallinity value of 73–80% for the EDR 9 film, estimated from these electrical properties, compares well with that calculated by the ratio of the crystallite size along the chain axis to the meridional small‐angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS) long period, showing the average thickness of the lamellae within the drawn β film. These results, as well as the appearance of a strong SAXS maximum, suggest that the oriented structure and properties of the β‐PVDF are better explained in terms of a crystal/amorphous series arrangement along the draw axis. Further, the mechanical and electrical properties obtained in this work are the highest among those ever reported for a β‐PVDF, and the latter approaches those observed for the vinylidene fluoride and trifluoroethylene copolymers. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Herein, we report the synthesis of conducting poly (terthiophene)s using a side chain precursor polymer approach. Random copolymers were prepared by ring opening metathesis polymerization of two norbornylene monomers, one containing a pendant terthiophene group and the other containing a pendant acetate group. Solid‐state oxidative conversion of the terthiophene units was used to produce conductive polymers. Oxidative solid‐state conversion was successful for copolymers containing as little as 1 mol % of terthiophene comonomer. The electrical and optical properties of CPs were studied as a function of the amount of electroactive moiety, terthiophene (3T), present in the copolymer. The CPs were found to have conductivity varying between 10?1 and 10?4 S/cm depending on the precursor copolymer compositions. The CPs obtained from all precursors had no significant difference in their energy gaps and showed blue to orange color transitions when switching from the oxidized to the neutral states, respectively. The absorbance intensity at 426 nm for poly(3T) from the precursors fits the Beer–Lambert law corresponding to the range of initial 3T content in the precursor copolymer composition (from 1 to 100 mol %). © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Systematic research on the synthesis, chemical oxidative polymerization of 3,4‐ethylenedithiathiophene (EDTT) in the presence of surfactants or not, and solid‐state polymerization of 2,5‐dibromo‐3,4‐ethylenedithiathiophene (DBEDTT) and 2,5‐diiodo‐3,4‐ethylenedithiathiophene (DIEDTT) under solventless and oxidant‐free conditions has been investigated. Effects of oxidants (Fe3+ salts, persulfate salts, peroxides, and Ce4+ salts), solvents (H2O, CH3CN/H2O, and CH3CN), surfactants, and so forth on polymerization reactions and properties of poly(3,4‐ethylenedithiathiophene) (PEDTT) were discussed. Characterizations indicated that FeCl3 was more suitable oxidant for oxidative polymerization of EDTT, while CH3CN was a better solvent to form PEDTT powders with higher yields and electrical conductivities. Dispersing these powders in aqueous polystyrene sulfonic acid (PSSH) solution showed better stability and film‐forming property than sodium dodecylsulfate and sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate. Oxidative polymerization of EDTT in aqueous PSSH solutions formed the solution processable PEDTT dispersions with good storing stability and film‐forming performance. Solvent treatment showed indistinctive effect on electrical conductivity of free‐standing PEDTT films. As‐formed PEDTT synthesized from solid‐state polymerization showed similar electrical conductivity, poorer stability, but better thermoelectric property than oxidative polymerization. Contrastingly, PEDTT synthesized from DIEDTT showed higher electrical conductivity (0.18 S cm?1) than DBEDTT which showed better thermoelectric property with higher power factor value (6.7 × 10?9 W m?1 K?2). © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The miscibility and thermal properties of poly(N‐phenyl‐2‐hydroxytrimethylene amine)/poly(N‐vinyl pyrrolidone) (PHA/PVP) blends were examined by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), high‐resolution solid‐state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). It was found that PHA is miscible with PVP, as shown by the existence of a single composition‐dependent glass transition temperature (Tg) in the whole composition range. The DSC results, together with the 13C crosspolarization (CP)/magic angle spinning (MAS)/high‐power dipolar decoupling (DD) spectra of the blends, revealed that there exist rather strong intermolecular interactions between PHA and PVP. The increase in hydrogen bonding and in Tg of the blends was found to broaden the line width of CH—OH carbon resonance of PHA. The measurement of the relaxation time showed that the PHA/PVP blends are homogeneous at least on the scale of 1–2 nm. The proton spin‐lattice relaxation in both the laboratory frame and the rotating frame were studied as a function of the blend composition, and it was found that blending did not appreciably affect the spectral densities of motion (sub‐Tg relaxation) in the mid‐MHz and mid‐KHz frequency ranges. Thermogravimetric analysis showed that PHA has rather good thermal stability, and the thermal stability of the blend can be further improved with increasing PVP content. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

A film of nascent powder of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), compacted below the ambient melting temperature (Tm, 335 °C), was drawn by two‐stage draw techniques consisting of a first‐stage solid‐state coextrusion followed by a second‐stage solid‐state coextrusion or tensile draw. Although the ductility of extrudates was lost for the second‐stage tensile draw at temperatures above 150 °C due to the rapid decrease in strength, as previously reported, the ductility of extrudates increased with temperature even above 150 °C when the second‐stage draw was made by solid‐state coextrusion, reflecting the different deformation flow fields in a free space for the former and in an extrusion die for the latter. Thus, a powder film initially coextruded to a low extrusion draw ratio (EDR) of 6–20 at 325 °C was further drawn by coextrusion to EDRs up to ~?400 at 325–340 °C, near the Tm. Extremely high chain orientation (fc = 0.998 ± 0.001), crystallinity (96.5 ± 0.5)%, and tensile modulus (115 ± 5 GPa at 24 °C, corresponding to 73% of the X‐ray crystal modulus) were achieved at high EDRs. Despite such a morphological perfection and a high modulus, the tensile strength of a superdrawn tape, 0.48 ± 0.03 GPa, was significantly low when compared with those (1.4–2.3 GPa) previously reported by tensile drawing above the Tm. Such a low strength of a superdrawn, high‐modulus PTFE tape was ascribed to the low intermolecular interaction of PTFE and the lack of intercrystalline links along the fiber axis, reflecting the initial chain‐extended morphology of the nascent powder combined with the fairly high chain mobility associated with the crystal/crystal transitions at around room temperature. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A new model of solid‐state polymerization of nylon‐6,6 has been developed. The polymer crystalline fraction is assumed to consist of only repeat units, leaving end‐groups and condensate in the amorphous fraction. Many effects neglected by previous models are considered, such as variable crystallinity, initial moisture and starting molecular weight. This model is compared to experimental data with good agreements. Differential scanning calorimetry graphs show that the crystalline structure phase tends to be increasingly perfect during heat treatment, indicative of the premelting temperature drawing near the melting point up to 14 °C after solid‐state polycondensation with little change of melting point.

The heat capacity of poly(vinyl methyl ether) (PVME) has been measured using adiabatic calorimetry and temperature‐modulated differential scanning calorimetry (TMDSC). The heat capacity of the solid and liquid states of amorphous PVME is reported from 5 to 360 K. The amorphous PVME has a glass transition at 248 K (?25 °C). Below the glass transition, the low‐temperature, experimental heat capacity of solid PVME is linked to the vibrational molecular motion. It can be approximated by a group vibration spectrum and a skeletal vibration spectrum. The skeletal vibrations were described by a general Tarasov equation with three Debye temperatures Θ1 = 647 K, Θ2 = Θ3 = 70 K, and nine skeletal modes. The calculated and experimental heat capacities agree to better than ±1.8% in the temperature range from 5 to 200 K. The experimental heat capacity of the liquid rubbery state of PVME is represented by Cp(liquid) = 72.36 + 0.136 T in J K?1 mol?1 and compared to estimated results from contributions of the same constituent groups of other polymers using the Advanced Thermal AnalysiS (ATHAS) Data Bank. The calculated solid and liquid heat capacities serve as baselines for the quantitative thermal analysis of amorphous PVME with different thermal histories. Also, knowing Cp of the solid and liquid, the integral thermodynamic functions of enthalpy, entropy, and free enthalpy of glassy and amorphous PVME are calculated with help of estimated parameters for the crystal. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
