MORPHOLOGY OF A THERMOTROPIC AROMATIC POLYESTER

The crystalline morphology of a thermotropic aromatic polyester has been studied by microscopy techniques. Spherulites with ringed structure under polarizing micioscope were observed for solution cast specimens, They were composed of radially growing crystalline lamellae of thickness around 100. It was found that the molecules were packed in the thickness direction. Banded texture was observed in randomly packed domains for melt cast specimens. The bands have the same width and internal structure as those usually observed in oriented specimens of these polymers obtained by shearing their mesomorphic melt.     

Studies on the Phase Properties of Winsor Ⅰ-Ⅲ Type Microemulsions with Dielectric Relaxation Spectroscopy

The dielectric relaxation spectroscopy （DRS） of Winsor I -Ⅲ microemulsions for nonionic surfactant octyl polyglucoside CsG1.46/1-butanol/cyclohexanedwater system was studied. The experiment shows that the permittivity decreases with the increase in the frequency and clear dielectric relaxation phenomena were observed. Permittivity obviously decreases with the change of the microstructure of the microemulsion, W/O, B.C. and O/W can be distinguished by the permittivity.

The systems Zr(Nb,Ti)(R)O2−δ, R=Yb, Ca—optimization of mixed conductivity and comparison with results of other systems (R=Y and Gd)

In this work we address the optimization of mixed conductivity in fluorite compounds based on zirconia. Phase relations of the new systems YbO_1.5-NbO_2.5-ZrO₂, and CaO-NbO_2.5-ZrO₂ are presented. The limit of the cubic defect fluorite phase in YbO_1.5-NbO_2.5-ZrO₂ closely resembles that of the system YO_1.5-NbO_2.5-ZrO₂, whilst in CaO-NbO_2.5-ZrO₂ is narrow extending to include composition Ca_0.255Nb_0.15Zr_0.595O_1.82 at 1500°C. The influence of dopant ion size, charge and composition on ionic conduction is assessed and parallels are drawn with the systems YO_1.5-NbO_2.5-ZrO₂ and YO_1.5-TiO₂-ZrO₂. Comparison of these results with published data on the Ti containing systems CaO-TiO₂-ZrO₂, GdO_1.5-TiO₂-ZrO₂ shows that the highest mixed conducting compositions can only be offered in the system YO_1.5-TiO₂-ZrO₂ out of all the systems here studied.     

COMPATIBILITY AND PHASE BEHAVIOR OF PS/SBR BLEND Ⅰ. EFFECT OF MOLECULAR WEIGHT OF PS

The results of this study reveals not only the sensitivity of the compatibility of PS with SBR to the molecular weight (MW) of PS and temperature, but also some other interesting characteristics, i. e., unusual morphology change during the process of mixing with increase in temperature of specimen preparation observed under optical microscope and double-peak UCST curves for three blends with PS of low MW from DSC data. Acording to the amount of inward shift of the component T_g's and the broadening of the transition regions, it may be said that this polymer pair is compatible only when the MW of PS is low, and even then there still exists micro-heterogeneity.     

DSC法研究液晶物质2-(4-烷氧苯基)6-取代苯并噻唑的相变热性质

The phase transitions of a new group of mesogens, 2-(4-alkoxyphenyl)-6-substituted benzothiazoles were thermodynamically studied by DSC, and their transition temperatures and enthalpy changes were measured, from which the transition entropy changes were calculated. The results obtained were discussed. In addition, the phe-nomenon of super-cooling of the compounds were quantitatively observed.     

A further breakthrough in biphasic, rhodium-catalyzed hydroformylation: the use of Per(2,6-di-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin as inverse phase transfer catalyst

Solvent free biphasic hydroformylalion of various water-insoluble terminal olefins can be achieved in high yields and sclcctivitics by using a water-soluble rhodium/triphenylphosphine trisulfonate catalyst and per(2,6-di-o-mclhyl)-β-cyclodcxtrin as inverse phase transfer catalyst. The catalytic activities were up to ten times higher than those observed without pcr(2,6-di-o-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin.     

Stereoselectivity and competing reactions as studied by lipase-catalyzed esterifications in aqueous lecithin-based gelatin gels

 The enzyme catalyzed conversion of R/S-(±)-2-octanol with hexanoic acid to R/S-(±)-2-octyl hexanoate has been studied in different microenvironments and in the presence of the competing substrate ethanol. The reactions were performed in various gels made from aqueous gelatin solutions and liposome dispersions or isotropic liquid solutions, with or without oil and ethanol. The lipase Candida sp. (SP 525) was dissolved in the dispersions or solutions stabilized by the naturally occurring zwitterionic surfactant soybean lecithin. The sectioned porous gel was immersed in hexane containing 0.33 mol dm^-3 of racemic 2-octanol and hexanoic acid. Since ethanol acts both as a substrate and as a part of the gel it is of fundamental interest to know the phase behaviour of the used systems. Partial phase diagrams for the systems ethanol–water–soybean lecithin and ethanol/water (7:3)–oil–soybean lecithin were determined at 298.2 K. The oil was either castor oil or hexadecane. The conversion of R-2-octyl hexanoate was about 0.45 when no or small amounts of ethanol was present, but decreased considerably with high amounts of ethanol present and ethyl hexanoate became the main product. Hydrolysis of R-2-octyl hexanoate was favoured in the latter systems and hexanoic acid formed was immediately esterified to ethyl hexanoate. The conversion of R-2-octyl hexanoate and ethyl hexanoate depends only on the ethanol content present in the systems and is thus independent of the environment of the enzyme. However, the chiral esters synthesized from racemic 2-octanol and hexanoic acid showed high optical purities regardless of the ethanol content. Received: 1 July 1996 Accepted: 30 August 1996
