Infrared Spectra of Isotactic Poly-α-olefins

Persistence Length of Isotactic Poly(hydroxy butyrate)

The persistence length of isotactic poly(hydroxy butyrate) was measured using small-angle neutron scattering. The value obtained from these measurements reflects a high degree of local chain persistence. If this local persistence is accounted for, scattering from these chains can be globally fit with Gaussian scaling. A global scattering function, the unified equation, is used, which decomposes...

Infrared Spectra of Thermally Degraded Poly ( Vinyl Chloride } *

The cha nges in chemical structure occu ring in pol y (vinyl chloride) as a res ul t of heati ng ina vacu um in t he range 100° to 400° C were studied using infrared spectropho to metry. The pri ncipa l changes occ urri ng in t he residue during p yrolysis in a vacuum were the format ion of unsaturated s tructures a nd a change from an al iphatic spectrum to one showing aromatic absorption. The...

Near-Infrared Spectra of Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies.

Near-infrared spectra with a resolution of lambda&solm0;Deltalambda approximately 1100 in the rest-wavelength range of 1.8-2.2 µm have been obtained for a complete sample of 33 ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs). Of the 33 objects observed, two show evidence of a central active galactic nucleus (AGN) through either a broad Paschen-alpha line or emission in the 1.963 µm fine structure of [...

Predicting Solubility of Isotactic Poly (1-Butene) in Different Organic Solvents by Modified UNIQUAC

The UNIQUAC activity coefficient model is extended to predict solid-liquid equilibrium of isotactic crystalline poly (1-butene), iPBu-1, in different organic solvents. The UNIQUAC activity coefficient model used in this work is based on the concept of group contribution and consists of combinatorial, residual and free volume terms. To account for branching of atom groups in the monomer structur...
