The enzymes phosphotransacetylase (PTA) and acetate kinase (AK) catalyze the conversion of acetyl coenzyme A to acetate in the fermentation of Clostridium acetobutylicum. The acetate-producing step is an important element in the acidogenic fermentation stage and generates ATP for clostridial cell growth. The genes pta…

Aromatic diamines react with pyromellitic dianhydride in solvents such as dimethyl-acetamide to form solutions of high molecular weight polyamic acids. These soluble polymers can be converted to insoluble aromatic polyimides. The aromatic poly imides exhibit zero strength temperatures above 700°C. and possess excellen…

Abstract Synthetic hectorite clay minerals were hydrothermally crystallized with direct incorporation of a series of five water-soluble polyvinyl alcohols (PVA) of molecular weights from 9000-146,000. The molecular weight of PVA had little effect on the success of hydrothermal hectorite synthesis, d-spacing or the amo…

The sintering of ultrafine γ‐Al 2 O 3 powder (particle size ∼10–20 nm) prepared by an inert gas condensation technique was investigated in air at a constant heating rate of 10°C/min. Qualitatively, the kinetics followed those of transition aluminas prepared by other methods. Measurable shrinkage commenced at ∼ 1000°C…

Abstract 13 C NMR analysis of the chain‐end distribution of poly(propylenes) prepared using the highly active catalyst system MgCl 2 /TiCl 4 /diether—AlEt 3 has revealed particularly high proportions of butyl chain‐ends in polymers prepared at relatively low hydrogen pressures. This indicates that the high sensitivity…

We have performed a molecular-dynamics simulation for a sample of amorphous ${\mathrm{SiO}}_{2}$ subject to a compression-decompression process at ambient temperature, using a recently proposed two-body potential model. For moderate compression the simulated glass maintains the ideal tetrahedral coordination and displ…

Abstract Enzymatic ring‐opening polymerization of a 16‐membered lactone, 15‐pentadecanolide (PDL), has been carried out in bulk using various lipases of different origin as catalyst. The polymerization with Pseudomonas fluorescens lipase (lipase PF) catalyst afforded the corresponding polyester in high yields. The rat…

During sample preparation, the coarse fraction (> 2 mm) of soils is commonly excluded from further analytical determinations. Our results demonstrated, however, that the coarse fragments of soils derived from sandstone in Tuscany, Italy, are not chemically inert. From an intensive study of the clasts from three profil…

We calculate the free energy of a model for a polymer melt in a computer simulation of the bond-fluctuation model and determine the entropy of the melt over a wide range of temperatures, including the region close to the glass transition. The results are compared with the Gibbs-DiMarzio theory, a theory by Flory for s…

High‐purity alumina powder with submicrometer particle size was colloidally dispersed and classified in either water or ethanol to remove agglomerates from as‐received powder. After the slurries were dried, fine alumina particles cohered to form agglomerates, which were “hard” when formed in a water slurry, and “soft”…
