Crystallinity tendencies

We already mentioned that among the disubstituted Fc derivatives, the 1,3-disubstitution pattern is the one that induces the highest mesomorphic tendency, but because of the bulkiness of Fc, four rings are required for mesomorphism to occur. This observation confirms that Fc tends to decrease the liquid-crystalline tendency of the materials onto which it is included. [Pg.231]

To demolish the crystalline structure of PEO, epichlorohydrin was first copolymerized with ethylene oxide to introduce a branch structure in order to increase the ion conductivity to 4.1 x 10 S/cm (Yu and Zhou, 2002). Although this copolymer was not decribed as a pure graft polymer, it at least revealed that the ion conductivity can be improved by incorporating the side chain to depress the crystalline tendency of PEO. [Pg.558]

We have also undertaken research work on graft polymer electrolytes. Given that both lowering the glass transition temperature (Eg) and eliminating the crystalline tendency of polymer matrix are efficient ways to improve ion conductivity, a first goal focused on the preparation of comblike polyethers (Ye et al, 2005). TWo monomers, 3-(2-cyano ethoxy)methyl-... [Pg.559]

Otlier possibilities for observing phase transitions are offered by suspensions of non-spherical particles. Such systems can display liquid crystalline phases, in addition to tire isotropic liquid and crystalline phases (see also section C2.2). First, we consider rod-like particles (see [114, 115], and references tlierein). As shown by Onsager [116, 117], sufficiently elongated particles will display a nematic phase, in which tire particles have a tendency to align parallel to... [Pg.2689]

Other authors have attributed the improved corrosion resistance with increasing Cr content with the increasing tendency of the oxide to become more disordered [69]. This would then suggest that an amoriDhous oxide film is more protective than a crystalline one, due to a bond and stmctural flexibility in amoriDhous films. [Pg.2725]

The tests in the two previous paragraphs are often used because they are easy to perform. They are, however, limited due to their neglect of intermolecular interactions. Testing the effect of intennolecular interactions requires much more intensive simulations. These would be simulations of the bulk materials, which include many polymer strands and often periodic boundary conditions. Such a bulk system can then be simulated with molecular dynamics, Monte Carlo, or simulated annealing methods to examine the tendency to form crystalline phases. [Pg.312]

The tendency of the strong, highly crystalline fibers to fibnUate, ie, to develop a hairy surface on wet-abrasion has, for the textile appUcations, been minimized by process changes both in fiber production and fabric manufacture. However, for nonwoven or speciaUty paper appUcations, this property can aUow potential users to develop ceUulosic microfibers during processing. [Pg.352]

The pentahalides of phosphorus, PX, in the gas phase exhibit varying tendencies to dissociate into trihaUde and halogen. InstabiUty increases with increasing ionic radius of the halogen. The pentafluoride appears to be thermally stable. Dissociation of the pentachloride, a few percent at 100°C and 101.3 kPa (1 atm), is essentially completed at 300°C (36). The pentabromide is partially dissociated in the Hquid state and totally dissociated above ca 35°C (39). Pentaiodide does not exist. The molecules of PF and PCl in the vapor phase are trigonal bipyramids. In the crystalline state, both pentachloride and pentabromide have ionic stmctures, ie, [PClJ IPClg] and [PBr4]" PBrJ , respectively. The PX" 4 cations are tetrahedral and the PX anion is octahedral (36,37). [Pg.366]

GVD Coatings. As in PVD, the stmcture of the deposited material depends on the temperature and supersaturation, roughly as pictured in Figure 8 (12). In the case of CVD, however, the effective supersaturation, ie, the local effective concentration in the gas phase of the materials to be deposited, relative to its equiUbrium concentration, depends not only on concentration, but on temperature. The reaction is thermally activated. Because the effective supersaturation for thermally activated reactions increases with temperature, the opposing tendencies can lead in some cases to a reversal of the sequence of crystalline forms Hsted in Figure 8, as temperature is increased (12). [Pg.49]

One of the simplest cases of phase behavior modeling is that of soHd—fluid equilibria for crystalline soHds, in which the solubility of the fluid in the sohd phase is negligible. Thermodynamic models are based on the principle that the fugacities (escaping tendencies) of component are equal for all phases at equilibrium under constant temperature and pressure (51). The soHd-phase fugacity,, can be represented by the following expression at temperature T ... [Pg.224]

Barium is a member of the aLkaline-earth group of elements in Group 2 (IIA) of the period table. Calcium [7440-70-2], Ca, strontium [7440-24-6], Sr, and barium form a closely aUied series in which the chemical and physical properties of the elements and thek compounds vary systematically with increa sing size, the ionic and electropositive nature being greatest for barium (see Calcium AND CALCIUM ALLOYS Calcium compounds Strontium and STRONTIUM compounds). As size increases, hydration tendencies of the crystalline salts increase solubiUties of sulfates, nitrates, chlorides, etc, decrease (except duorides) solubiUties of haUdes in ethanol decrease thermal stabiUties of carbonates, nitrates, and peroxides increase and the rates of reaction of the metals with hydrogen increase. [Pg.475]

Cobalt(II) hydroxide [1307-86-4], Co(OH)2, is a pink, rhombic crystalline material containing about 61% cobalt. It is insoluble in water, but dissolves in acids and ammonium salt solutions. The material is prepared by mixing a cobalt salt solution and a sodium hydroxide solution. Because of the tendency of the cobalt(II) to oxidize, antioxidants (qv) are generally added. Dehydration occurs above 150°C. The hydroxide is a common starting material for the preparation of cobalt compounds. It is also used in paints and Hthographic printing inks and as a catalyst (see Paint). [Pg.377]

Water-Holding Capacity (WHC). AU polysaccharides are hydrophilic and hydrogen bond to variable amounts of water. HydratabUity is a function of the three-dimensional stmcture of the polymer (11) and is kifluenced by other components ki the solvent. Fibrous polymers and porous fiber preparations also absorb water by entrapment. The more highly crystalline fiber components are more difficult to hydrate and have less tendency to sweU. Stmctural features and other factors, including grinding, that decrease crystallinity or alter stmcture, may iacrease hydratioa capacity and solubUity. [Pg.70]

For a substance to dissolve in a liquid, it must be capable of disrupting the solvent structure and permit the bonding of solvent molecules to the solute or its component ions. The forces binding the ions, atoms or molecules in the lattice oppose the tendency of a crystalline solid to enter solution. The solubility of a solid is thus determined by the resultant of these opposing effects. The solubility of a solute in a given solvent is defined as the concentration of that solute in its saturated solution. A saturated solution is one that is in equilibrium with excess solute present. The solution is still referred to as saturated, even... [Pg.59]
