Poly(maleic anhydride-alt-1-octadecene), a cheap and com. available polymer, was used to water-solubilize colloidal nanocrystals with various compns., morphologies, and sizes. Highly pure nanoparticles with homogeneous distributions of sizes and surface ch ...
This contribution reports on the synthesis of hyperbranched polylysines via thermal polymerization of L-lysine hydrochloride. Polymerization of L-lysine hydrochloride in the presence of one equivalent KOH at 150°C resulted in polymers with a number-average ...
The term polymer brush refers to a well defined arrangement of polymer chains, which are tethered with one end to an interface and usually the surface of a solid substrate. Due to steric repulsion the polymer chains furthermore adopt a defined, stretched c ...
The three-component reaction of aryl boronic acids with 1,2,4,5-tetrahydroxybenzene and 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene or 4,4-bipyridine leads to the formation of dark-purple boronate ester polymers. Crystallographic analyses show that the polymer strands have ...
Supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) is a promising foaming agent for the production of polymeric foams, representing an environmentally friendly alternative for the foaming agents currently used. During the expansion phase of the scCO2-foaming process, te ...
In UV-curable printing technology, an ink or a varnish is exposed to the UV-light source within a fraction of a second. Subsequent polymerization therefore proceeds in the dark, referred to as dark curing. Because dark curing can be critical and contribute ...
This thesis is devoted to the study of the dispersion polymerization of methyl methacrylate in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2), using a poly(dimethylsiloxane) macromonomer (PDMS macromonomer) as stabilizer. Supercritical fluids (SCF) and SCF mixtures ...
The glass transition temperature (Tg) of polymer nanostructures was measured using a technique based on synchrotron x-ray diffraction from periodic grating structures. Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) nanostructures consisting of 1:1 lines:spaces with a 10 ...
Because of the unequal reactivity of the two amine groups of L-lysine hydrochloride, thermal polymerization of this asymmetrical AB2 monomer results in hyperbranched polymers, which contain ?2.5 times more N?-linked linear compared to N?-linked linear stru ...
Expts. of Me methacrylate dispersion polymn. are carried out in a reaction calorimeter using PDMS-mMA (methacrylate-terminated polydimethylsiloxane) as surfactant. Different stabilizer concns. from 0 to 10 wt% with respect to monomer have been considered i ...
