Poly alkyl ethers

As shown in Table 3, the glass-transition temperatures of the amorphous straight-chain alkyl vinyl ether homopolymers decrease with increasing length of the side chain. Also, the melting points of the semicrystalline poly(alkyl vinyl ether)s increase with increasing side-chain branching.

The structural effect of alkyl groups such as methyl, ethyl, and -butyl on the Rp is small. Alkyl 4-methyl-phenylcarbamate can be chosen as a model compound for the hard segment of poly(ether-urethane) (PEU). This group can initiate grafting reaction with Ce(IV) ion and the grafting site was proposed at the hard segment of PEU [3,15] as shown in Scheme (1).

Silica particles synthesized in nonionic w/o microemulsions (e.g., poly-oxythylene alkyl phenyl ether/alkane/water) typically have a narrow size distribution with the average value between 25 and 75 nm [54,55]. Both water and surfactant are necessary components for the formation of stable silica suspensions in microemulsions. The amounts of each phase present in the micro emulsion system has an influence on the resulting size of the silica nanoparticle. The role of residual water (that is the water that is present in the interface between the silica particle and the surfactant) is considered important in providing stability to the silica nanoparticle in the oil... 

In this paper, we report the solution properties of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-alkyl poly(oxyethylene) ether (CjjPOEjj) mixed systems with addition of azo oil dyes (4-NH2, 4-OH). The 4-NH2 dye interacts with anionic surfactants such as SDS (11,12), while 4-OH dye Interacts with nonionic surfactants such as C jPOEn (13). However, 4-NH2 is dependent on the molecular characteristics of the nonionic surfactant in the anlonlc-nonlonic mixed surfactant systems, while in the case of 4-OH, the fading phenomena of the dye is observed in the solubilized solution. This fading rate is dependent on the molecular characteristics of nonionic surfactant as well as mixed micelle formation. We discuss the differences in solution properles of azo oil dyes in the different mixed surfactant systems. 

Anionic surfactant Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS, C] 2 25 3 supplied by Nihon Surfactant Industries Co., Ltd Tokyo, Japan. It was extracted with ether and recrystallized from ethanol. The purity was ascertained by surface tension measurement. Nonionic surfactant Alkyl poly(oxyethylene) ether (CjjPOEjj, CmH2nhPlO(CH2CH20)2oH, m=12, 14, 16, and 18 Ci6H330(CH2CH20) H, n=10, 20, 30, and 40) were supplied by Nihon Surfactant Industries Co., Ltd. These have a narrow molecular weight distribution.

Although rigid-rod poly(p-phenyleneterephthalamide) analogues having alkyl side chains did not contain cyclic polymers, the polycondensation of silylated m-phenylenediamine and aliphatic dicarboxyhc acid chloride afforded cyclic polyamides predominantly (Scheme 49) [187]. Furthermore, cyclic polymers were also produced in polycondensations for polyesters, poly(ether ketone)s, polyimides, and polyurethanes [183]. These examples are the products in polycondensation of AB monomers or in A2 + B2 polycondensations, but cyclization of oligomer and polymer was also confirmed in polycondensation of AB2 monomers [ 188-195] and in A2 + B3 [ 196-202] and A2 + B4 polycondensations [203-206], which afford hyperbranched polymers. 

The selectivity of the Complex Formation is a very interesting subject, y - Cyclodextrin, (y - CD) has been found to form inclusion complexes with poly (methyl vinyl ether) (PMVE), poly(ethyl vinyl ether) (PEVE), and poly(n- propyl vinyl ether) (PnPVE) of various molecular weights to give stoichiometric compounds in crystalline states. However, a- cyclodextrin (a - CD) and (3 - Cyclodextrin ((3- CD) did not form complexes with poly (alkyl vinyl ether)s of any molecular weight, y -CD did not form complexes with the low molecular weight analogs, such as diethyl ether and trimethylene glycol dimethyl ether.

Amphiphilic poly(ethylene glycol)-alkyl dextran ethers are emerging as vehicles in the oral delivery of poorly water soluble drugs [251,268,269]. They form polymer micelles of low critical association concentrations (CAC) and small micelle sizes in aqueous solution. Particulate delivery systems lead to an enhancement of the absorption efficiency and bioavailability of highly hpophihc drugs orally applied, and provide the drug with some level of pro-...

Since the development of living cationic polymerizations of alkyl vinyl ethers (Chapter 4, Sections IV and V.A), considerable efforts have been made to synthesize and polymerize vinyl ether derivatives carrying polar functional substituents, and thereby it is now possible to obtain a variety of pendant-functionalized poly(viny) ethers) of controlled molecular weights and narrow MWDs [1,2,13], Figure 3 lists typical examples of vinyl ethers carrying various pendant functionalities for which living cationic polymerizations are available [14-35]. These monomers are synthesized most conveniently from 2-chloroethyl vinyl ether, now commercially available,...
