Study of poly(bisphenol A carbonate) relaxation kinetics at the glass transition temperature

In this work, the variations of the relaxation times are investigated above and below the glass transition temperature of a model amorphous polymer, the polycarbonate. Three different techniques (calorimetric, dielectric and thermostimulated currents) are used to achieve this goal. The relaxation time at the glass transition temperature was determined at the temperature dependence convergence of the relaxation times calculated with dynamic dielectric spectroscopy (DDS) for the liquid state and thermostimulated depolarisation currents (TSDC) for the vitreous state. We find a value of τ(T_g) = 110 s for PC samples. The knowledge of the temperature dependence, τ(T), and the value τ(T_g) enables to determine the glass-forming liquid fragility index, m. We find m = 178 ± 5.     

Dynamic kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols with a readily available ruthenium-based racemization catalyst

An easy to handle and stable racemization catalyst for secondary alcohols is obtained by an in situ mixture of readily available [Ru(cymene)Cl₂]₂ with chelating aliphatic diamines. Optimization of the reaction revealed that N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyl-1,3-propanediamine as ligand racemizes aromatic alcohols completely within 5 h. This easy to handle and stable catalytic system is combined with a lipase-catalyzed resolution to provide an efficient dynamic kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols.     

Application of a dynamic method of minimisation in the study of reaction surfaces

This paper describes the application of Snyman's dynamic minimisation method to a fitted potential surface of H₃. Comparisons are made with conventional algorithms. A method is described to extend Snyman's method so that it will find only a particular kind of stationary point. It is emphasized that this method enables saddle points to be found without having to resort to approaches based on trial and error.     

On the determination of dynamic surface tensions by means of a modified bubble pressure method

A method for the determination of the dynamic surface tension of surfactant solutions is presented which allows to cover adsorption times down to 10 seconds. This method is based on the determination of the pressure inside two communicating bubbles. There is no deformation of the solution/air interface during the experimental procedure. Hence, in evaluating the kinetic data no surface area enlargement has to be taken into account. An automatically operating procedure should allow to cover adsorption times down to approximately one second and should improve the measuring accuracy substantially. Experimental investigations with aqueous n-decanoic acid solutions using the method proposed provided evidence that decanoic acid is adsorbed by a diffusioncontrolled mechanism.     

Growth of silica nanoparticles in methylmethacrylate-based water-in-oil microemulsions

The mechanism of silica particle formation in monomer microemulsions is studied using dynamic light scattering (DLS), atomic force microscopy, small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), and conductivity measurements. The hydrolysis of tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) in methylmethacrylate (MMA) microemulsions (MMA = methylmethacrylate) is compared with the formation of SiO₂ particles in heptane microemulsions. Stable microemulsions without cosurfactant were found for MMA, the nonionic surfactant Marlophen NP10, and aqueous ammonia (0.75 wt%). In the one-phase region of the ternary phase diagram, the water/surfactant ratio (R _w) could be varied from 6 to 18. The DLS and SAXS measurements show that reverse micelles form in these water-in-oil (w/o) microemulsions. The minimum water-to-surfactant molar ratio required for micelle formation was determined. Particle formation is achieved from the base-catalyzed hydrolysis of TEOS. According to atomic force microscopy measurements of particles isolated from the emulsion, the particle size can be effectively tailored in between 20 and 60 nm by varying R _w from 2–6 in heptane w/o microemulsions. For MMA-based microemulsions, the particle diameter ranges from 25 to 50 nm, but the polydispersity is higher. Tailoring of the particle size is not achieved with R _w, but adjusting the particle growth period produces particles between 10 and 70 nm.     

The first 1,2-dibora-[2]ferrocenophane and its dynamic behaviour in solution

1,2-Bis(dimethylamino)-1,2-dibora-[2]ferrocenophane (1) was prepared by the reaction of 1,1′-dilithioferrocene with 1,2-dichlorobis(dimethylamino)diborane(4). In addition to hindered rotation about the B-N bond (ΔG^‡ > 80 kJ mol⁻¹), another dynamic process was revealed by ¹H and ¹³C NMR in solution at low temperature, and interpreted as motion of the cyclopentadienyl rings between staggered and eclipsed conformations (ΔG_{(233 K)}^‡ = 44 ± 1 kJ mol⁻¹).     

Interactions between synthetic and indigenous naphthenic acids and divalent cations across oil–water interfaces: effects of addition of oil-soluble non-ionic surfactants

Interactions between naphthenic acids and divalent metal cations across model oil–alkaline water interfaces were investigated by correlating changes in dynamic interfacial tension (IFT), to plausible reaction mechanisms. The measurements were carried out by using a CAM 200 optical instrument, which is based on the pendant drop technique. The naphthenic acids used were synthesised model compounds as well as commercial acid mixtures from crude distillation and extracted acid fractions from a North Sea crude oil. The divalent cations involved Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, Sr²⁺, and Ba²⁺, which are all common in co-produced formation water and naphthenate deposits. The results show that the dynamic IFT strongly depends on naphthenic acid structure, type of divalent cation, and the concentration of the compounds as well as the pH of the aqueous phase. Introducing divalent cations to systems involving saturated naphthenic acids caused mostly a permanent lowering of the IFT. The decline in IFT is due to electrostatic attraction forces across the interface between the cations in the aqueous phase and the carboxylic-groups at the o/w interface, which cause a higher interfacial density of naphthenic acid monomers. The permanent lowering in IFT is likely due to formation of positively charged monoacid complexes, which possess high interfacial activity. On the other hand, in the case of the aromatic model compounds, the cations affected the IFT differently. This is mainly discussed in light of degree of cation hydration and steric conditions. Various oil-soluble non-ionic surfactant mixtures were also introduced to systems involving a model naphthenic acid and Ca²⁺ in order to investigate how the interfacial competition affected the local interactions. Based on the behaviour of dynamic IFT, probable inhibition mechanisms are discussed.Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material is available for this article at     

Microchip electrophoretic protein separation using electroosmotic flow induced by dynamic sodium dodecyl sulfate-coating of uncoated plastic chips

Separation of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-protein complexes is difficult on plastic microchips due to protein adsorption onto the wall. In this paper, we elucidated the reasons for the difficulties in separating SDS-protein complexes on plastic microchips, and we then demonstrated an effective method for separating proteins using polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) microchips. Separation difficulties were found to be dependent on adsorption of SDS onto the hydrophobic surface of the channel, by which cathodic electroosmotic flow (EOF; reversed flow) was generated. Our developed method effectively utilized the reversed flow from this cathodic EOF as a driving force for sample proteins using permanently uncoated but dynamic SDS-coated PMMA microchips. High-speed (6 s) separation of proteins and peptides up to 116 kDa was successfully achieved using this system.     

Sequential injection analysis with dynamic surface tension detection High throughput analysis of the interfacial properties of surface-active samples

A sequential injection analysis (SIA) system is coupled with dynamic surface tension detection (DSTD) for the purpose of studying the interfacial properties of surface-active samples. DSTD is a novel analyzer based upon a growing drop method, utilizing a pressure sensor measurement of drop pressure. The pressure signal depends on the surface tension properties of sample solution drops that grow and detach at the end of a capillary tip. In this work, SIA was used for creating a reagent concentration gradient, and for blending the reagent gradient with a steady-state sample. The sample, consisting of either sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) or poly(ethylene glycol) at 1470 g mol⁻¹ (PEG 1470), elutes with a steady-state concentration at the center of the sample plug. Reagents such as Brij®35, tetrabutylammonium (TBA) hydroxide and β-cyclodextrin were introduced as a concentration gradient that begins after the sample plug has reached the steady-state concentration. By blending the reagent concentration gradient with the sample plug using SIA/DSTD, the kinetic surface pressure signal of samples mixed with various reagent concentrations is observed and evaluated in a high throughput fashion. It was found that the SIA/DSTD method consumes lesser reagent and required significantly less analysis time than traditional FIA/DSTD. Four unique chemical systems were studied with regard to how surface activity is influenced, as observed through the surface tension signal: surface activity addition, surface activity reduction due to competition, surface activity enhancement due to ion-pair formation, and surface activity reduction due to bulk phase binding chemistry.
