A new data mining approach as a short cut method is given for the determination of copolymer composition from mass spectra. Our simplifies spectra by reduction number peaks. The proposed procedure, namely selection peaks, which based on most abundant peak spectrum, can be performed manually or more efficiently using our recently invented Mass-remainder analysis (MARA). considerable MS also calc...

60Co γ-ray irradiation-initiated reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization at room temperature with 2-cyanoprop-2-yl 1-dithionaphthalate (CPDN) as the chain transfer agent was first applied to acrylonitrile (AN) polymerization, providing a “green” platform for preparing polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based carbon fibers using an environment-friendly energy source. Various ...

ethylene was homopolymerized over ziegler-natta catalyst and the homopolymerization was modeled using moment equations. mechanism was modeled according to five different reaction centers of catalyst. for each center, there are different reaction rate coefficients; therefore the final product of each center would be expected to be different. modeling results showed good conformity to the experim...

atom transfer radical polymerization (atrp) of styrene was carried out at 105°c and a monte carlo simulation was employed to model the system. the variations of monomer conversion, the initiator concentration, average molecular weight, and molecular weight distribution were evaluated as the reaction proceeded. according to the results obtained, for similar reaction time, monomer conversion is h...

Chromium-vanadium (Cr-V) bimetallic catalysts are prepared by the introduction of vanadium into the Phillips catalyst which is one of the most significant industrial ethylene polymerization catalysts for tuning the Phillips catalyst performances and improving polyethylene properties. In the present work, titanium species were introduced into the fluorine-modified chromium-vanadium bimetallic ca...

Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) (PNIPAM-co-AA) ionomer chains can form stable nanoparticles in water at temperatures higher than their lower critical solution-temperature. A combination of the weight average molar mass (Mw) from the absolute average scattering intensity and the hydrodynamic radius distribution (f(Rh)) from the line width distribution G(Γ) was used to study the influ...

Hyphenating High Temperature High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HT-HPLC) with High Temperature Size Exclusion Chromatography (HT-SEC) (High Temperature Two Dimensional Liquid Chromatography (HT-HPLC x HT-SEC or HT 2D-LC)) leads to an isocratic elution in the second dimension, which in turn enables to use IR detector (quantitative detection) for monitoring the eluting polymers. Experimental...
