Study of Cyano-Derivatives of Propene as Transfer Agents in Radical Polymerizations

ABSTRACT

A new procedure for determining transfer constants, depending on knowledge of the numbers of initiator fragments in the average molecules of appropriate polymers, has been applied to crotononitrile (1-cyano-1-propene) and allyl cyanide (3-cyano-l-propene) with methyl methacrylate and styrene at 60°C. Allyl cyanide is the more reactive of the two additives, but is less effective than allylbenzene (3-phenyl-1-propene); neither of the cyano-derivatives causes appreciable retardation.     

Infrared laser velocity modulation spectrum of the ν3 fundamental band of HBCI+

The infrared spectrum of the ν₃ fundamental band of HBC1⁺ has been observed using the velocity modulation detection technique. The ion was produced in an ac glow discharge containing a mixture of H₂ and BC1₃. Thirty-two transitions of the fundamental band of the most naturally abundant isotopomer, H¹¹B³⁵C1⁺, between 1105 and 1170cm^?1 have been assigned. The ν₃ band origin and rotational constants have been determined to be ν₀ = 1121.5677(20)cm^?1, B ₀ = 0.63089(23)cm^?1 and B ₁ = 0.62699(21)cm^?1. A second series of lines have been attributed to the H¹¹B³⁷C1⁺ isotopomer, although it has not been possible to make an unambiguous J assignment of these lines.     

用于合成纯硅分子筛 AST 和 LTA 的动态有机结构导向剂(英文)

Pure-silica-zeolite(PSZ) AST and LTA are synthesized successfully by using the same structure-directing agent(SDA) molecule,but at different concentrations.A dynamic organic SDA is proposed to discuss the mechanism of phase discrimination between AST and LTA.Data suggest that the SDA molecules can self-assemble into dimer or trimer complexes at different concentrations by π-π interactions,and these differences can be taken advantage of to selectively synthesize either PSZ AST or LTA.These deviations from the Liebau's rules indicate that small changes in SDA chemistry,structure,and order in solution can have a great impact on the structure selectivity of the zeolite synthesis.     

The Transport Equation of Radiative Transfer in a Three-dimensional Space with Anisotropic Scattering

Present address: Science Research Council, Atlas Computer Laboratory, Chilton, Didcot, Berkshire, England. The exact solution of a radiative transfer problem requiresthe reduction of the integro-differential transport equationto an integral equation. This paper considers the transportequation in a general three-dimensional space, when the scatteringfunction consists of the first three terms of a series of Legendrepolynomials. The resulting integral equations may then be usedfor the solution of Radiative Transfer problems in any space.where the radiation is restricted to normal incidence.     

Stability of a simple Levi–Civitá functional equation on non-unital commutative semigroups

In this paper, we study the Hyers–Ulam stability of a simple Levi–Civitá functional equation f(x+y)=f(x)h(y)+f(y) and its pexiderization f(x+y)= g(x) h(y)+k(y) on non-unital commutative semigroups by investigating the functional inequalities |f(x+y)?f(x)h(y)?f(y)|≤?? and |f(x+y)?g(x)h(y)?k(y)|≤??, respectively. We also study the bounded solutions of the simple Levi–Civitá functional inequality.     

On the Arnold cat map and periodic boundary conditions for planar elongational flow

In this paper we show that the periodic boundary conditions used to simulate planar elongational flow are closely related to the Arnold cat map. In particular the relationship between the Arnold cat map and the periodic boundary conditions devised by Kraynik and Reinelt [1992, Int. J. multiphase Flow, 18, 1045], the so-called K-R map, is demonstrated. It is shown that the family of lattices found by Kraynik and Reinelt corresponds to a subset of hyperbolic toral automorphisms. These lattices were previously found to be sufficient to enable molecular dynamics simulations of steady-state planar elongational flow of unrestricted duration. Within the frame of the cat map we provide a re-derivation for the set of eigenvalues, eigenvectors and orientation angles of the K-R map and find it to be considerably simpler than the original derivation provided by Kraynik and Reinelt.
