Using p,p'-dimethoxydiphenyldiazomethane (DMDM) as initiator, the polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) in benzene or in bulk was carried out. The initial rate of polymerization, Rp, was found to be expressed by the following equation: Rp = k[DMDM]0.53 [MMA]0.84 The polymerization was confirmed to proceed by a radical mechanism. The over-all activation energy for the polymerization in benzene was calculated as 19.3 kcal/mole. The rate of thermal decomposition of DMDM was also measured in benzene and the rate equation was obtained as follows: kd (sec?1) = 1.0 × 1015 exp (?29.1 kcal/RT) (for 50-80°C) Explanations of these observations are discussed in connection with those of the preceding papers. 相似文献
Abstract The binary system of tetramethyl tetrazene (TMT) and Co(II) chloride was used as initiator of acrylonitrile (AN) in dimethylformamide. The initial rate of polymerization (Rp) was found to be expressed by Rp = k[TMT]0.62[Co(II) chloride]0.57 [AN]2.00 The polymerization was confirmed to proceed via a radical mechanism. The over-all activation energy for the polymerization was estimated as 15.1 kcal/mole. On the basis of these results and the product analysis of the reaction between the catalyst components in the absence of monomer, the initiation mechanism of the polymerization is discussed. 相似文献
Long-alkyl-chain phenyl esters of β-alanine, glycine, and L-valine were prepared, and their monolayer properties were correlated with their molecular structures. These compounds formed stable monolayers on acidic subphases. In particular, the p-hexadecylphenyl esters of β-alanine and glycine were remarkably stable, and their monolayers could be deposited on calcium fluoride plates as Y-type film by Blodgett's technique. The polycondensation of multilayers under an atmosphere saturated with triethylamine was investigated by changes in the IR spectra. It was determined that the polycondensation proceeded by a first-order reaction mechanism in the initial stage and that the rate in multilayers was faster than that in the bulk crystalline powder. These results suggest that the polycondensation is accelerated by a regular arrangement of the monomer in the multilayers, where the active sites are concentrated and located better for the polycondensation. In the case of the polycondensation in multilayers of the glycine ester, two kinds of condensation proceeded to afford poly(glycine) and 2,5-piperazinedione. 相似文献
Several polyurethanes based on bis-(p-oxymethylphenyl) terephthalate (BOPT) were synthesized and studied with respect to some of their thermal properties. BOPT exhibits a mesomorphic phase at 252–264°C. Polymerization was carried out by equimolar reaction with hexamethyl-ene diisocyanate (HDI), 4,4-dicyclohexylmethane diisocyanate (H12MDI) α,α'-diisocyanate-1,3-dimethylcyclohexane (H6 XDI), 4,4′-diphenylmeth-ane diisocyanate (MDI), 2,4-tolylene diisocyanate (TDI), and phenylene diisocyanate (PDI). It became clear that polyurethanes obtained from BOPT with HDI, H12MDI, H6XDI, and TDI have mesomorphic phases at 243–291, 214–250, 172–229, and 180–234°C, respectively, as determined by DSC and polarized microscopy, and that all polyurethanes are crystalline as evidenced by x-ray diffraction. 相似文献
The pigment, tecophilin, in blue flowers of Tecophilaea cyanocrocus was isolated and the structure was determined to be 3-O-(6-O-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-β-d-glucopyranosyl)-7-O-(6-O-(4-O-(2-O-(4-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(E)-caffeoyl)-6-O-(4-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(E)-caffeoyl)-β-d-glucopyranosyl)-(E)-caffeoyl)-β-d-glucopyranosyl)delphinidin. The reproduction experiment of the same color as petals according to the results of chemical analysis and measurement of vacuolar pH of blue cells clarified that the blue color solely develops by tecophilin without interaction of metal ions nor co-pigments. 1H NMR analysis and CD spectrum indicate the co-existence of clockwise intermolecular self-association of the delphinidin nuclei and intramolecular π–π stacking between the chromophore and caffeoyl residues to derive bathochromic shift of the absorption spectrum and stabilize the color by preventing hydration reaction. 相似文献
Microdevices designed for practical environmental pollution monitoring need to detect specific pollutants such as dioxins. Bisphenol A (BPA) has been widely used as a monomer for the synthesis of polycarbonate and epoxy resins. However, the recent discovery of its high potential ability to disrupt human endocrine systems has made the development of smart systems and microdevices for its detection and removal necessary. Molecule‐responsive microsized hydrogels with β‐cycrodextrin (β‐CD) as ligands are prepared by photopolymerization using a fluorescence microscope. The molecule‐responsive micro‐hydrogels show ultra‐quick shrinkage in response to target BPA. Furthermore, the flow rate of a microchannel is autonomously regulated by the molecule‐responsive shrinking of their hydrogels as smart microvalves.
Reaction between dimethyldivinylsilane and 3,6-diazaoctane in the presence of 3-lithio-3,6-diazaoctane yields a new telechelic oligomer, poly(silamine), which consists of alternating 3,3-dimethyl-3-silapentane and N,N′-diethylethylenediamine units in the main chain. Poly(silamine) shows unique phase transition properties in response to the degree of protonation of amino groups in the polymer. Poly(silamine) also shows a strong interaction with several anions. Due to the interaction between poly(silamine) and anions along with the protonation of amino groups in the poly(silamine), the rubber elasticity of poly(silamine) is drastically changed. A discrete volume change can be observed when the environmental pH of the poly(silamine) gels is varied. This can be explained not only by a change in ionic osmotic pressure but also by a change in the rubber elasticity of the networks in the gel. 相似文献
Graft copolymer (HA) composed of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and a polyamine exhibits unique biospecific behavior at the interface with living cells. In the present paper, the writer will discuss on four topics : (i) effective separation of rat lymphocyte subpopulations by using HA copolymer; (ii) surface analysis of HA copolymers by ESCA and streaming potential measurements; (iii) a hybrid field flow fractionation/adhesion chromatography technique; and (iv) specific cellular recognition of poly(HEMA)-graft-quaternized polyamine copolymer (HQA) 相似文献
