ITSTUDIES ON THE EFFECT OF UREA ON THE COMPATIBILITY OF PMMA/PVC MIXTURES IN DMF BY A DILUTE- SOLUTION VISCOMETRY METHOD

The interaction between poly(methymethacrylate) (PMMA) and poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) has been studied indilute urea solutions of dimethylformamide (DMF) at 28℃ using a dilute solution viscometry method. The results show thatthe polymer mixtures are compatible in DMF solution in the absence of urea. The influence of urea addition on the degree ofcompatibility of the polymer mixtures has been studied in terms of the compatibility parameters (△b_m and △[η]_m). It wasfound that the compatibility of the polymer mixtures is decreased with increasing urea addition, passing through a minimumat 0.5 M urea.     

Study on the Phase Diagram of CsCl-CeCl3-HCl(11%)-H2O System and the Properties of the Compounds

The equilibrium solubility of CsCl-CeCl3-HCl(11%)-H2O qua-ternary system at 25℃ has been determined by the physicchemical analysis method ,and the phase diagram was plotted, Two new double salts 3CsCl.CeCl3.3H2O and CsCl.CeCl3.4H2O obtained from the complicated system were identified and characterized by XRD,TG-DTA ,DSC,UV and fluorescence spectroscopy, Studies on the fluorescence excitation and emission show that 3CsCl.CeCl3.3H2O and CsCl.CeCl3.4H2O have upconversion luminescence of infrared-visible range,and the upconversion emission intensity increases with the increase of ratio of CeCl3 in CsCl.     

Solubility Enhancement of Low Soluble Biologically Active Compounds by β-Cyclodextrin and Dimethyl-β-cyclodextrin

The solubility enhancement of triflumizole by complexation with -cyclodextrin and with dimethyl--cyclodextrin is compared with respect to the different physico-chemical properties of the host molecules. Although the inclusion reaction constants are rather similar for both complexation reactions, a completely different temperature dependence of the host-guest interaction is observed, which indicates a change of the reaction mechanisms. Moreover, the influence of ethanol as cosolvent is studied.

Solubility of minoxidil in binary mixture of ethanol + water at various temperatures

ABSTRACT

The solubility of minoxidil in the aqueous binary mixtures of ethanol at different temperature are investigated and the obtained solubility data are fitted by using some cosolvency models including van’t Hoff equation, Yalkowsky model, Jouyban–Acree model and Jouyban–Acree–van’t Hoff model. The mean relative deviations (MRD%) are used to illustrate the models performance. Moreover, the apparent entropy, enthalpy, and Gibbs free energy of minoxidil dissolution process in the investigated solvent mixtures are computed using van’t Hoff and Gibbs equations. Finally, by means of the inverse Kirkwood–Buff integrals preferential solvation of minoxidil by water is observed in water-rich and ethanol-rich mixtures.

The de novo design of median molecules within a property range of interest

Summary In this paper an application is presented of the median molecule workflow to the de novo design of novel molecular entities with a property profile of interest. Median molecules are structures that are optimised to be similar to a set of existing molecules of interest as an approach for lead exploration and hopping. An overview of this workflow is provided together with an example of an instance using the similarity to camphor and menthol as objectives. The methodology of the experiments is defined and the workflow is applied to designing novel molecules for two physical property datasets: mean molecular polarisability and aqueous solubility. This paper concludes with a discussion of the characteristics of this method.     

Development of co-continuous morphology in epoxy poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blends cured by mixtures of phase-separating and non-phase-separating curing agents

The morphology of a quaternary blend containing a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A (DGEBA), a thermoplastic modifier (PMMA), a phase-separating curing agent (diaminodiphenylmethane, DDM), and a non-phase-separating curing agent (methylenebis(3-chloro-2,6-diethylaniline, MCDEA) was studied as a function of volume fraction of the thermoplastic modifier and fractional concentration of the curing agents in their mixture. It was found that using mixtures of curing agents a co-continuous morphology could be obtained at PMMA concentrations as low as 2.5 volume percent. Using FTIR spectroscopy it was proved that specific interactions are present between PMMA and individual amine curing agents. On the other hand, there was no detectable specific interaction between PMMA and DGEBA. By analyzing the micro-indentation hardness data of the cryo-fractured samples and putting forward the intrinsic hardness concept, it was proposed that the co-continuous morphology is inherently more effective than the other morphologies in changing the mechanical properties of the above-mentioned multi-component blends.     

The solubility of an hydroxyaluminosilicate

Hydroxyaluminosilicates (HAS) are critical secondary mineral phases in the biogeochemical cycle of aluminium. They are formed from the reaction of silicic acid (Si(OH)₄) with an aluminium hydroxide template and act as a geochemical control of the biological availability of Al. There are two main forms of HAS which we have called HAS_A and HAS_B and which of these will predominate will depend upon the Si(OH)₄ to Al ratio in any one environment. In all but the most heavily weathered environments or those undergoing a progressive acidification Si(OH)₄ will be present in significant excess to Al and HAS_B will be the dominant secondary mineral phase. We have tried to determine the solubility of HAS_B(s) so that its contribution to Al solubility control might be compared with other secondary minerals such as Al(OH)_3(gibbsite). In preliminary experiments, the dissolution of HAS_B(s) was found to be non-congruent with almost no Al being released during 18 months ageing. We then demonstrated that HAS_B(s) was significantly less soluble than Al(OH)_3(s) prepared under identical experimental conditions. We have used this information to describe a solubility expression for HAS_B(s) at a predefined quasi-equibrium and to calculate a solubility constant.
