Figure 2.9. Soil structure and its most common location in a soil profile. Platy structure can be found in any horizon. Subangular and angular blocky structures can be found both higher and lower in the profile than indicated.

C-NMR spectroscopy has shown that the polybutadienes prepared using alkyl-lithium initiators have random placement of the different modes of enchainment 222-223). This contrasts with an earlier claim of blocky structures 224). Random sequence distribution has also been established for polyisoprene by 1H-NMR 225) and 13C-NMR 226) spectroscopy. 

The most common polymeric silicone surfactants are based on polyoxyalkylene groups. The structures of graft-type (rake-type) and ABA structures are illustrated in Figures 6.17 and 6.18. It should be noted that there are many possible variants of these basic structures. The actual structure of graft-type silicone copolymers is a random copolymer of m and n rather than the blocky structure suggested by the diagram. 

The blocky structure of incompletely hydrolysed grades of polyvinyl alcohol probably results In mlcelllsatlon In aqueous solution despite an early report to the contrary (3). Benzene h is been found to be solubilised in polyvinyl alcohol solutions to an extent which Increases with acetyl content (22). 

We can use thi.s property of the minimum support functional to increase the resolution of blocky structures. To do so, we modify s s (m) and introduce a minimum gradient support functional as... 

It can be speculated that the ester exchange reaction has already occurred but complete randomization of the monomers has not yet occurred. In that case, a blocky structure would be expected. However, as will be demonstrated later, the observed DSC traces are not consistent with the occurrence of a blocky structure. Thus, the conclusion is reached that the present data suggests that transesterification is not a dominant mechanism in determining the behavior of the present blends.

Novel sulfonated and carboxylated ionomers having "blocky" structures were synthesized via two completely different methods. Sulfonated ionomers were prepared by a fairly complex emulsion copolymerization of n-butyl acrylate and sulfonated styrene (Na or K salt) using a water soluble initiator system. Carboxylated ionomers were obtained by the hydrolysis of styrene-isobutyl-methacrylate block copolymers which have been produced by carefully controlled living anionic polymerization. Characterization of these materials showed the formation of novel ionomeric structures with dramatic improvements in the modulus-temperature behavior and also, in some cases, the stress-strain properties. However no change was observed in the glass transition temperature (DSC) of the ionomers when compared with their non-ionic counterparts, which is a strong indication of the formation of blocky structures. 

Soil type at location 1 was Meyer s clay, described as a very deep, well-drained clay soil that cracks when dry to a depth of about 90 centimeters producing an angular, blocky structure (7). Location 2 was characterized in the El Solyo Series which consists of moderately well-drained, fine textured silty clay loams. Subsurface soils are described as compact and consisting of calcareous heavy silty clay loams ( 7). 

Frequently more than one constituent occur in PHAs homopolymers of the 150 constituents are rare. In the copolymers, which contain two, three or even more different constituents, the constituents are more or less randomly distributed in the chain. Only in a very few cases was evidence for blocky structures obtained however, true block copolyesters are not synthesized in bacteria.
