H-1 NMR spectra confirmed the incorporation of 3-PDCA onto PAA and a series of HMPs with three different molar concentrations, viz. congruent to 3, 5 and 7 mol-% of 3-PDCA, were synthesized. An increase in viscosity with increasing hydrophobic content was observed by rheological measurements. The critical association concentrations were determined using an Ubbelohde viscometer and a controlled stress rheometer. The stability of HMPs towards temperature and shear was studied. Rheological measurements showed that there was a steady increase in viscosity with increase in hydrophobe content due to the formation of reversible networks. These polymers exhibited gel-like behavior at low concentrations (greater than or equal to2 wt.-%) with an apparent yield stress (ca. 10 Pa) and showed shear thinning properties (non-Newtonian). However, below a critical concentration, c [eta], they showed Newtonian behavior.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.495</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pal, R.

While PAAgC12 self-associates through hydrophobic interactions, the gelation of PAAgPNIPA is triggered by heating in response to the lower critical solution temperature of PNIPA (LCST similar to 32 degrees C). The local structure of the physical networks was investigated by small-angle neutron scattering, and the scattering patterns were described using a polydisperse sphere model taking into account hard-sphere interactions. This model allow us to draw a realistic picture of physical gels with quantitative information concerning the size of hydrophobic cores, the volume fraction of stickers in the aggregates, the fraction of stickers which take part in the aggregation process, the range of repulsive interactions, and the structural modifications induced by temperature. The description of the network is in good agreement with complementary data obtained from DSC and C-13 NMR. In the present work, a special emphasis has been given to the important relationship existing between the viscoelastic properties of associating polymer solutions and the binding energy of stickers leaving temporarily the micellar junction. Depending on the endothermic or exothermic nature of the disengagement process of the sticker (heat of demicellization), the relaxation time of the network and the viscoelastic properties will either decrease or increase with the temperature. The consequence is that aqueous solutions of PAAgC12 and PAAgPNIPA exhibit opposite rheological properties with the temperature, namely thermothinning and thermothickening. By mixing these two copolymers, we show that intermediate properties can be obtained but in that case a microphase-separated network is obtained as a result of copolymer segregation.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">20</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5.583</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pore, D.

The hydroxyl groups at 3, 4 and 5 positions of gallic acid provide an opportunity for varying the hydrophobicity of the compound. The hydrophobic end-capping compound, 3,4,5tridodecyloxy bezoylazide was prepared from gallic acid and PEGS with different chain lengths (of number average molecular weights, 10000 and 35000 g/mol) were endcapped. using 3,4,5-tridodecyloxybenzoyl azide.

These new benzoxazine monomers exhibited better processability with lower peak cure temperature and a wide cure controllable window (CCW) as manifested in differential scanning calorimetric analysis. The cure analysis was performed by FT-IR spectroscopy. Glass transition temperature of new polybenzoxazines varied from 170 to 205 degrees C. The cyclohexyl bridge groups facilitated ring opening, resulting in polymer with improved thermal stability in comparison to bisphenol A-based benzoxazine as assessed by the various thermal analyses. The water contact angles of polybenzoxazines containing (substituted) cyclohexyl moieties were higher than that of bisphenol A-based polybenzoxazine, implying their higher hydrophobicity.

However most of such aramides are difficult to fabricate because of their limited solubility and high melting temperature. Improvements in processability have been reported by incorporating bulky pendant groups and aliphatic spacer groups. Similarly to improve the solubility of polymers approaches of incorporating silicon in main polymer chain and co-polymerization techniques were useful. We report the synthesis and characterization of a series of phenylated silicon containing aromatic-aliphatic polyamides from a mixture of 2, 5-bis (4-carboxy methylene phenyl)-3, 4-diphenyl thiophene (CMPDT) and bis-(4-carboxy phenyl) dimethyl silane (BCPDS) in various mole proportions, with commercial aromatic diamine. Thus a series of novel co-polyamides having pendant phenyl groups, methylene spacer and silicon moiety was prepared by judicious combination of (CMPDT); BCPDS and aromatic diamine; bis-(4-aminophenyl) ether (ODA), by direct polycondensation using Yamazaki's phosphorylation method. These high molecular mass polyamides were obtained in high (89-98%) yields and had viscosities in the range of 0.23-0.57 dL/g in DMAc.

The BABH and intermediates involved in its synthesis were characterized by spectroscopic methods. Novel poly(amide-hydrazide)s were synthesized by low temperature solution polycondensation of BABH with isophthaloyl chloride (IPC) and terephthaloyl chloride (TPC). Furthermore, two series of copoly(amide-hydrazide)s, based on different mol % of BABH and bis-(4-aminophenyl) ether (ODA) with IPC/TPC were also synthesized. Poly(amidehydrazide)s and copoly(amide-hydrazide)s were characterized by inherent viscosity [eta(inh)], FTIR, solubility, X-ray diffraction (MUD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The polycondensation proceeded smoothy and afforded the polymers with inherent viscosities in the range of 0.18-093 dL/g in (NMP + 4% LiCl) at 30 degrees C +/- 0.1 degrees C. These polymers dissolved in DMAc, NMP or DMSO containing LiCl. The solubility of copolymers was considerably improved in line with less crystalline nature due to random placement of constituent monomers during the copolymerization. XRD data indicated that poly(amide-hydrazide)s from BABH alone and IPC/TPC had higher crystallinity than the corresponding copoly(amide-hydrazide)s derived from a mixture of BABH and bis-(4-aminophenyl) ether (ODA). Polymers showed initial weight loss around 160 degrees C which is attributed to the cyclodehydration leading to the formation of corresponding poly(amide-oxadiazole)s. Copolyamide-hydrazides showed, T(max) between 400 and 540 degrees C which is essentially the decomposition of poly(amide-oxadiazole)s. (C) 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

BABE was characterized by FT-IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR and mass spectrometry. Five new aromatic polyamides were prepared by low temperature solution polymerization from BABE and different mole proportions of isophthaloyl chloride (IPC) or terephthaloyl chloride (TPC). The resulting polymers were characterized by means of FT-IR, inherent viscosity [eta(inh)], solubility, differential scanning calorimetry [DSC], thermogravimetric analysis [TGA] and X-ray diffraction [XRD]. Polyamides were obtained in good yields and had moderate to high molecular weights as indicated by inherent viscosities in the range 0.63-1.35 dL/g in (DMAc + 4% LiCl). XRD results showed the partly crystalline nature of polymers and these polymers dissolved in aprotic polar solvents containing LiCl. The solubility of copolyamides improved due to random placement of constituent IPC and TPC during polymerization. DSC analysis of these polyamides showed glass transition temperatures in the range of 197-204 degrees C, and they showed no weight loss below 336 degrees C when analyzed by TG. These polyamides have potential applications as engineering materials. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

Aromatic polyesters and copolyesters were prepared by interfacial polymerization from BHPQ or BHNQ and isophthaloyl chloride or terephthaloyl chloride or a mixture of different mole proportions of (IPC + TPC). These polyesters and copolyesters were characterized by spectroscopic technique, viscosity measurement, solubility, thermal stability. DSC and XRD. Polymers had moderate to high molecular weights as evidenced by the inherent viscosities in the range 0.35-0.78 dL/g for BHPQ series and 0.27-0.52 dL/g for BHNQ series. BHPQ polyesters and copolyesters dissolved in m-cresol, NMP and conc. H(2)SO(4) whereas, BHNQ polyesters and copolyesters were readily soluble in NMP, DMAc, (TCE + phenol) and partly soluble in solvent like CHCl(3), pyridine, etc. Wide angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) results showed that introduction of quinoxaline moiety into polymer chain and aromatic phenyl/rigid naphthyl structures lead to crystalinity. Differentional scanning calorimetry of BHNQ polyesters showed the glass transition temperatures in the range of 131-151 degrees C. BHPQ polyesters did not show any weight loss below 330 degrees C and retained 27-55% weight at 900 degrees C when investigated by TGA under nitrogen atmosphere demonstrating good thermal stability BHNQderived polyesters showed initial decomposition temperatures in range 211-234 degrees C. The structure-property relationships for the mentioned polyesters are analyzed, as these polyesters are of interest as materials for electronics, microelectronics and membrane separation.

The compounds were prepared through a sequence of Ullmann-coupling, Vilsmeier-Haack formylation and Knoevenagel-condensation, followed by Suzuki-coupling reactions for introduction of aryl substitutents at C(7) position of the phenothiazine. The introduction of a donor unit at the C(7) position exhibited a weak impact on the optical and electrochemical characteristics of the compounds and led to amorphous films with bulk hole mobilities in the typical range reported for phenothiazines, despite the higher charge delocalisation as attested by computational studies. In contrast, highly ordered films were formed when using the C(7)-unsubstituted 3-malononitrile phenothiazine, exhibiting an outstanding mobility of 1 x 10(-3) cm(2) V-1 s(-1), the highest reported for this class of compounds. Computational conformational analysis of the new phenothizanes suggested that free rotation of the substitutents at the C(7) position suppresses the ordering of the system, thereby hampering suitable packing of the new materials needed for high charge carrier mobility.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4.122</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kupwade, R.
