Nonlinear rheological behavior of silica filled solution‐polymerized styrene butadiene rubber

The reinforcement and nonlinear viscoelastic behavior have been investigated for silica (SiO₂) filled solution‐polymerized styrene butadiene rubber (SSBR). Experimental results reveal that the nonlinear viscoelastic behavior of the filled rubber is similar to that of unfilled SSBR, which is inconsistent with the general concept that this characteristic comes from the breakdown and reformation of the filler network. It is interesting that the curves of either dynamic storage modulus (G′) or loss tangent (tan δ) versus strain amplitude (γ) for the filled rubber can be superposed, respectively, on those for the unfilled one, suggesting that the primary mechanism for the Payne effect is mainly involved in the nature of the entanglement network in rubbery matrix. It is believed there exists a cooperation between the breakdown and reformation of the filler network and the molecular disentanglement, resulting in enhancing the Payne effect and improving the mechanical hysteresis at high strain amplitudes. Moreover, the vertical and the horizontal shift factors for constructing the master curves could be well understood on the basis of the reinforcement factor f(φ) and the strain amplification factor A(φ), respectively. The surface modification of SiO₂ causes a decrease in f(φ), which is ascribed to weakeness of the filler–filler interaction and improvement of the filler dispersion. However, the surface nature of SiO₂ hardly affects A(φ). © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 45: 2594‐2602, 2007     

Epoxy resin containing polyphenylsilsesquioxane: Preparation,morphology, and thermomechanical properties

Polyphenylsilsesquioxane (PPSQ) was incorporated into an epoxy resin to prepare organic–inorganic composites, and two strategies were adopted to afford composites with different morphologies. Phase separation induced by polymerization occurred in the physical blending system. However, nanostructured composites were obtained when a catalytic amount of aluminum triacetylacetonate was added to mediate the reaction between PPSQ and diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA). The intercomponent reaction significantly suppressed the phase separation on the micrometer scale. Organic–inorganic composites with different morphologies displayed quite different thermomechanical properties. Both differential scanning calorimetry and dynamic mechanical analysis showed that the nanostructured composites possessed higher glass‐transition temperatures than the phase‐separated composites with the same loading of PPSQ, although the intercomponent reaction between PPSQ and DGEBA reduced the crosslinking density of the epoxy matrix. This result was ascribed to the presence of nanosized PPSQ domains in the nanostructured composites, which acted as physical crosslinking sites and thus reinforced the epoxy networks. The nanoreinforcement of the PPSQ domains afforded the enhanced dynamic storage modulus for the nanostructured composites in comparison with the phase‐separated composites with a PPSQ concentration less than 15 wt %. In terms of thermogravimetric analysis, the organic–inorganic composites displayed improved thermal stability and flame retardancy. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Superposition-model investigations of the zero-field splittings and their stress and temperature dependence for Mn in guanidinium aluminum sulfate hexahydrate

The zero-field splittings of sites I and II for Mn²⁺ in guanidinium aluminum sulfate hexahydrate (GASH) are calculated from the superposition model by using the normal intrinsic parameter ₂(R₀) obtained from Mn²⁺ ions in many oxygen octahedra. The results are in good agreement with the experimental findings. Based on this, the local compressibilities and local thermal expansion coefficients in the vicinity of the impurity ion Mn²⁺ have been studied from the stress and temperature dependence of zero-field splitting and are found to be half of the host ones. The reasonableness of these local values is discussed.

Effect of ionic additives on the elution of sodium aryl sulfonates in supercritical fluid chromatography

Addition of a small amount of polar solvent (i.e., modifier) to CO2 in packed column supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) has shown major improvements in both polar analyte solubility and interaction of the polar analyte with the stationary phase. Recently, the addition of an ionic component (i.e., additive) to the primary modifier by one of us has been shown to extend even further the application of SFC to polar analytes. In this work, the effect of various ionic additives on the elution of ionic compounds, such as sodium 4-dodecylbenzene sulfonate and sodium 4-octylbenene sulfonate, has been studied. The additives were lithium acetate, ammonium acetate, tetramethylammonium acetate, tetrabutylammonium acetate, and ammonium chloride dissolved in methanol. Three stationary phases with different degrees of deactivation were considered: conventional cyanopropyl, deltabond cyanopropyl, and bare silica. The effect of additive concentration and additive functionality on analyte retention was investigated. Sodium 4-dodecylbenzene sulfonate was successfully eluted using all the additives with good peak shape under isocratic/isobaric/isothermal conditions. Different additives, however, yielded different retention times and in some cases different peak shapes.     

Coriatone and corianlactone, two novel sesquiterpenes from Coriaria nepalensis

Both coriatone (1). a novel highly oxygenated picrotoxane-type sesquiterpene, and corianlactone (2). with an unprecedented sesquiterpene basic skeleton, named coriane, were isolated from Coriaria nepalensis Wall. The structures of 1 and 2 were determined by analysis of their two-dimensional NMR data, and the structure of 2 was confirmed by X-ray analysis. Compounds 1 and 2 showed no remarkable inhibitory activity toward K(562) cells. They are cytotoxic with IC(50) > 50 microg/mL (cis-platinim: IC(50) = 0.49 microg/mL).
