Abstract A significant amount of industrial and governmental research has been and today is being conducted on nanocomposites. The most popular polymers for research and development of nanocomposites are polyamides, polypropylene, polyethylene, styrenics, vinyls, polycarbonates, epoxies, acrylics, polybutylene terepht…
Molecular motion at the specific sites of polystyrene- block -poly(methyl acrylate) (PS- block -PMA) forming a lamellar morphology was studied by electron spin resonance (ESR). PS- block -PMA's having nearly the same molecular weight and composition were selectively spin-labeled with stable nitroxide radicals at diffe…
A new approach for the surface grafting of polymer chains to colloidal substrates is described. A cationic macroinitiator has been designed for the surface polymerization of a wide range ofhydrophilic methacrylates from ultrafine inorganic oxide sols by atom transfer radical polymerization in protic media at ambient t…
We measure Young's modulus of a free polyelectrolyte multilayer film by studying osmotically induced swelling of polyelectrolyte multilayer microcapsules filled with the polyelectrolyte solution. Different filling techniques and core templates were used for the capsule preparation. Varying the concentration of the pol…
2,3,5,6-Tetrafluoro-4-(2,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropoxy)styrene (TF(F 5 )S) and 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-4-(2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,8-pentadecafluorooctaoxy)styrene (TF(F 15 )S) are prepared by nucleophilic substitution of 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorostyrene. The neat monomers are subjected to atom transfer radical polymerization…
A rare asymmetric end-on double azido-bridged copper(II) complex has been synthesized and characterized structurally and magnetically. The Cu-N(azide)-Cu angle in this complex is calculated to be 89.1 degrees. This is unusually low in comparison to the same angle in other end-on azido-bridged binuclear complexes repor…
Thioalkyl and thioalkylated oligo(ethylene glycol) (OEG) ligands with chain-end functionality were used to fabricate water-soluble CdSe nanoparticle scaffolds. Surface recognition of chymotrypsin (ChT) was achieved using these functionalized nanoparticle scaffolds, with three levels of interaction demonstrated: no int…
We report a new fabrication approach to highly sensitive optical sensors by combining the techniques of electrospinning and electrostatic layer-by-layer adsorption. A fluorescent probe, hydrolyzed poly[2-(3-thienyl) ethanol butoxy carbonyl-methyl urethane] (H-PURET), was electrostatically assembled onto the surface of…
Abstract Semi‐interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) have been prepared from polyurethane anionomers and poly(vinyl chloride) using sequential polymerization technique. These IPNs were compression molded and obtained as tough films. The hydrogen bonding interaction, glass transition temperature, and thermal stabilit…
Abstract Anionic polymerization of lauryl methacrylate (LMA) with 1,1‐diphenylhexyl lithium in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at −40 °C resulted in a multimodal and broad molecular weight distribution (MWD) with poor initiator efficiency. In the presence of additives such as dilithium salt of triethylene glycol (G 3 Li 2 ), Li…
The methods of hydrochloric acid extraction, liquid–solid adsorption, and complexation were used to remove basic nitrogen compounds from gasoline, and the efficiencies of three removal methods were studied. The experimental results show that the optimum range of the concentration of hydrochloric acid is 0.05 ∼ 1.0 mol…
Phase transition temperature and associated energies in hard high melting microcrystalline waxes and its various blend with paraffin wax (melting range from 60 to 97°C) have been determined by DSC in both heating and cooling mode. The dependence of these on the composition and properties of waxes have been analyzed. T…
Abstract In the present work the natural and maleic anhydride esterified fibers of banana, hemp, and sisal are used as reinforcers in novolac resin in the ratio of 40:60 (wt/wt) respectively. Absorption of water and steam in these wood/polymer composites is studied. The absorption of water increases with increase in t…
Abstract A series of novel, soluble polyazomethines bearing fluorene and carbazole moieties in the main chain and solubility‐improving moieties in the side group (dibutyl, ethylhexyl, thienylethyloxy, furyl, and fluorenyl) were synthesized. Good‐quality films of these polymers were prepared through the conventional so…
Abstract Fully crosslinked, stable poly(styrene‐ co ‐divinylbenzene) microspheres, which are composed of various concentrations of divilylbenzene from 5 to 75 mol % based on styrene monomer, were prepared without a significant particle coagulation by the precipitation polymerization. The number‐average particle diamet…
Abstract A series of low density polyethylene (LDPE)/starch blend films with starch content ranging from 2.5 to 50% were prepared by two methods, namely, solution blending followed by thermopress and extrusion methods. The LDPE/starch films prepared by both the methods were studied for physicomechanical properties suc…
We report a first-principle study of the electronic and conduction properties of a quadruple-helix guanine wire (G4-wire), a DNA-derivative, with inner potassium ions. The analysis of the electronic structure highlights the presence of energy manifolds that are equivalent to the bands of (semi)conducting materials, an…
Abstract The first successful example of a polymer‐clay hybrid was nylon‐clay hybrid (NCH), which is a nano‐meter‐sized composite of nylon‐6 and 1‐nm‐thick exfoliated aluminosilicate layers of the clay mineral. NCH was found and developed at Toyota Central Research and Development Laboratories over 17 years ago. The N…
The macroscopic molecular self-assembly of an amphiphilic hyperbranched copolymer in acetone generated multiwalled tubes millimeters in diameter and centimeters in length. The thickness of the tube walls approaches 400 nanometers, and the walls have an inhomogeneous lamella structure that alternates between ordered hy…
Three kimberlite pipes are reported from Siddanpalli village in Gadwal area, Mahbubnagar district, Andhra Pradesh, bringing to light a new kimberlite cluster. Significance of the find lies in the fact that these kimberlite pipes are located in the Krishna river basin well known for its alluvial diamond mining activity…
