Management of moisture penetration and hydrolytic degradation of polylactide (PLA) is extremely important during the manufacturing,
shipping, storage, and end-use of PLA products. Moisture transport, crystallization, and degradation, in PLA have been measured
through a variety of experimental techniques including size-exclusion chromatography, differential scanning calorimetry, and
X-ray diffraction. Quartz crystal microbalance and dynamic vapor sorption experiments have also been used to measure moisture
sorption isotherms in PLA films with varying crystallinity. A surprising result is that, within the accuracy of the experiments,
crystalline and amorphous PLA films exhibit identical sorption isotherms. 相似文献

We present a general purpose QM-MM-MD engine (DYNGA) designed to test alternative hybrid Hamiltonians geared towards the treatment of problems of interest in structural biology including the use of experimental data constraints. In this first presentation we use DYNGA to explore the behaviour of a traditional QM-MM approach in the treatment of the water—water interaction. We find the potential energy hypersurface for the water dimer computed with the HF 4–31G*/TIP3P hybrid Hamiltonian tends to be too flat. We also explore the effect of using traditional QM-MM techniques on proton wires and conclude there is a need for improvement, possibly addressed by using polarizable force fields. 相似文献

Tangential and radial velocity profiles were measured for the flow about a sphere rotating slowly in a Newtonian fluid, contained in a rectangular tank. Velocities were determined from enlarged streak photographs of aluminium particles moving in a collimated “sheet” of light, at several planes through the flow field. Similar velocity profiles were measured for the flow of a 1.50% Natrosol 250 H solution about two spheres of different diameters rotating in two different sized rectangular tanks. A set of velocity distributions were also measured for a sphere rotating in a 0.9% Natrosol 250 H solution. A dye tracer study of the flow about a sphere rotating in this liquid is presented as well. Both Natrosol solutions exhibited viscoelastic behaviour. The Newtonian fluid study was carried out at a Reynolds number of 1.2 and the viscoelastic fluid studies were within the Reynolds number range of 0.05–1.24.The zero shear viscosities of the Natrosol solutions were measured using the falling-sphere method. The non-Newtonian material parameters were obtained by fitting the theoretical curves to the measured velocity data. The values of the elastic and shear thinning parameters for the two liquids obtained in the different geometrical and dynamical situations are compared. 相似文献

Abstract We analyze the efficiency of the international management of the Bay of Biscay anchovy. While a sharing agreement between France and Spain has been in place since 1992, the fish stock collapsed in 2005 and the fishery closed from 2005 to spring 2010. We consider differences in production technologies between both countries and calibrate our model using data from 1987 to 2009. Our results suggest two sources of rent dissipation under the existing sharing agreement: inefficient quota allocation and production inefficiencies due to inflexible national regulations. We discuss several alternatives to improve management. 相似文献

A newly developed interface coupling a CHN combustion device (elemental analyser 'EA') to an isotope ratio mass spectrometer is described and evaluated. The purpose of the device is to extend the dynamic range of delta(13)C and delta(15)N analysis from less than 2 orders of magnitude to more than 3 orders of magnitude. Carbon isotope ratio measurements of atropine as a model compound have been performed analysing between 1 μg to 5 mg C with acceptable to excellent precision (0.6 to 0.06 per thousand, delta-notation). The correction due to the blank signal is critical for sample amounts smaller than 4 μg C. The maximum sample weight is determined by the combustion capacity of the EA. Larger sample amounts are measured using dilution of a small part of the EA effluent with helium. The dilution mechanism works virtually free of isotope fractionation.

Water sorption into polylactide (PLA) and polylactide‐montmorillonite (PLLA‐MONT) composites containing 5 wt % of montmorillonite (MONT) under different heat treatment conditions was studied using the quartz crystal microbalance/heat conduction calorimetry (QCM/HCC) technique. Results showed that water sorption in neat polymer films and composite films increased with heat treatment temperature up to 120 °C. Differential scanning calorimetry was used to measure the glass‐transition temperature and isothermal crystallization kinetics of all samples. The mobility of the amorphous domain in all samples increased with heat treatment temperature, indicated by the decrease in glass‐transition temperature. PLA composites crystallized at a much faster rate than neat PLA did because MONT acted as a nucleating agent. Under the same heat treatment condition, water sorption in PLLA‐MONT composites was always higher than that in neat PLA due to the presence of the hydrophilic hydroxyl groups on the surface of MONT particles. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
