The classical method of toughening polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is to incorporate composite rubber particles into the homopolymer matrix. This approach has been extended in the present work by (i) combining rubber toughening with chemical modification of ...
Stimuli-responsive polymers have the unique property of undergoing a reversible phase transition. This property has attracted much interest for their application in the field of medicine and biotechnology, such as drug delivery systems. Linear polymers of ...
The emergence of antimicrobial resistance has led to an increase in research directed toward the engineering of novel polyketides. To date, less than 10 000 polyketide structures have been discovered exptl.; however, the theor. anal. of polyketide biosynth ...
The different steps associated with the curing of a PVAc/polyester blend are identified and correlated to the mechanism of shrinkage control in the presence of a low-profile additive (LPA). Poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) is used as a LPA and is shown to induce ...
A precise data set describing the kinetics of the free radical copolymn. of acrylamide/acrylic acid (AM/AA) in the range of low total monomer concn. as a function of the pH, total monomer concn., initiator concn., and comonomer ratio is presented. Strong i ...
A review in 4 sections comprising synthetic methods and prodn. processes of plastics (section I), apparatuses for prodn., processing, and making of plastics (section II), manufg. processes for the most important plastics (section III), and processing of th ...
The scale-up/-down of polymn. reactors has to deal with large viscosity changes during the process, addressing mass- and heat-transfer issues. A practical example on scale-up of styrene and Me methacrylate free radical bulk and soln. polymn. is presented. ...
A new synthetic strategy for the preparation of highly branched, or dendritic-graft, polypeptides is presented. The synthetic strategy is based on a repetitive sequence of ring-opening copolymerization and deprotection steps. Comonomers for the ring-openin ...
This paper reports the synthesis and characterization of a novel class of dendronized polymers which are based on styrene functionalized dendritic L-lysine macromonomers. Free radical polymerization of zeroth and first generation macromonomers afforded den ...
This report describes the aqueous solution self-assembly of a series of polystyrenem-b-poly(L-lysine)n block copolymers (m = 8-10; n = 10-70). The polymers are prepared by ring-opening polymerization of e-benzyloxycarbonyl-L-lysine AT-carboxyanhydride usin ...
