The chain extension reaction in poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) melt was studied in detail. A high-reactivity diepoxy, diglycidyl tetrahydrophthalate, was used as a chain extender that can react with the hydroxyl and carboxyl end groups of PBT at a very fast reaction rate and a relatively high temperature. A Haake…

The tensile drawing behavior of quenched and annealed films of isotactic polypropylene is investigated as a function of draw temperature and strain rate. A strain-induced structural change from the smectic to the monoclinic form is observed for the quenched films. A kinetic interpretation is proposed for the phenomeno…

We show that the current carrier density collapse in doped manganites, which results from bipolaron formation in the paramagnetic phase, leads to a colossal change of the optical conductivity in an external magnetic field at temperatures close to the ferromagnetic transition. As with the colossal magnetoresistance (CM…
