Formulated molecular weight

Based on the analyses of these liquid samples an approximation of amount of the benzidine-containing dye compound in a particular dye formulation could be made using molecular weight calculations. For 30 samples of C.I. Direct Red 28 formulation (molecular weight (Mr) = 696) at the... 

More recently a new fluorinated diamine, 2,2 -bis(trifluoromethyl)-4,4 -diaminobiphenyl (BTDB), has been combined with HFDE and NE to provide a new PMR resin, PMR-12F-71, the chemical structure of which is provided in Fig. 36. The molar ratio of the reactants was adjusted such that a formulated molecular weight of 7100 g/mol was achieved.

When = 2.087, the formulated molecular weight (FMW) was 1500 and this first generation resin was identified as PMR-15, which is still widely used. 

We shall be interested in determining the effect of electrolytes of low molecular weight on the osmotic properties of these polymer solutions. To further simplify the discussion, we shall not attempt to formulate the relationships of this section in general terms for electrolytes of different charge types-2 l, 2 2, 3 1, 3 2, and so on-but shall consider the added electrolyte to be of the 1 1 type. We also assume that these electrolytes have no effect on the state of charge of the polymer itself that is, for a polymer such as, say, poly (vinyl pyridine) in aqueous HCl or NaOH, the state of charge would depend on the pH through the water equilibrium and the reaction... 

The processes used commercially for the manufacture of film and sheeting materials are generaUy similar in basic concept, but variations in equipment or process conditions are used to optimize output for each type of film or sheeting material. The nature of the polymer to be used, its formulation with plasticizers (qv), fillers (qv), flow modifiers, stabilizers, and other modifiers, as weU as its molecular weight and distribution are aU critical to the... 

Cblorina.ted Pa.ra.ffins, The term chlotinated paraffins covers a variety of compositions. The prime variables are molecular weight of the starting paraffin and the chlorine content of the final product. Typical products contain from 12—24 carbons and from 40—70 wt % chlorine. Liquid chlotinated paraffins are used as plasticizers (qv) and flame retardants ia paint (qv) and PVC formulations. The soHd materials are used as additive flame retardants ia a variety of thermoplastics. In this use, they are combiaed with antimony oxide which acts as a synergist. Thermal stabilizers, such as those used ia PVC (see vinyl polymers), must be used to overcome the inherent thermal iastabiUty. 

The most common VI improvers are methacrylate polymers and copolymers, acrylate polymers (see Acrylic ester polymers), olefin polymers and copolymers, and styrene—butadiene copolymers. The degree of VI improvement from these materials is a function of the molecular weight distribution of the polymer. VI improvers are used in engine oils, automatic transmission fluids, multipurpose tractor fluids, hydrautic fluids, and gear lubricants. Their use permits the formulation of products that provide satisfactory lubrication over a much wider temperature range than is possible using mineral oils alone. 

Diperoxyketals, and many other organic peroxides, are acid-sensitive, therefore removal of all traces of the acid catalysts must be accompHshed before attempting distillations or kinetic decomposition studies. The low molecular weight diperoxyketals can decompose with explosive force and commercial formulations are available only as mineral spirits or phthalate ester solutions. 

Phenolic resin substantially increases open time and peel strength of the formulation (80). For example, higher methylol and methylene ether contents of the resin improves peel strength and elevated temperature resistance. Adhesive properties are also influenced by the molecular weight distribution of the phenoHc low molecular weight reduces adhesion (82). 

Plastisol Viscosity and Viscosity Stability. After the primary contribution of the resin type in terms of its particle size and particle size distribution, for a given PVC resin, plastisol viscosity has a secondary dependence on plasticizer viscosity. The lower molecular weight and more linear esters have the lowest viscosity and hence show the lowest plastisol viscosity, ie, plastisol viscosity for a common set of other formulation ingredients... 

One-step clean-and-shine products have become popular in the household market. These products are appHed to the floor with a sponge mop and their detergent action removes and suspends soil, which coUects on the mop and is removed when the mop is rinsed with water. The formulation, which remains on the floor, dries to a poHsh film. An earlier product of this type was dispensed from an aerosol as a foam. Formulas as of this writing (ca 1995) are appHed as Hquids (29,30). In one product, the dried film obtained from the formulation is soluble in the formulation, which includes low molecular weight, high acid polymers and a fairly large amount of ammonia (31). Repeated use does not contribute to a buildup of poHsh. 

Hydroxyl Number. The molecular weight of polyether polyols for urethanes is usually expressed as its hydroxyl number or percent hydroxyl. When KOH (56,100 meg/mol) is the base, the hydroxyl number is defined as 56,100/equivalent weight (eq wt). Writing the equation as eq wt = 56,100/OH No. allows one to calculate the equivalents of polyol used in a urethane formulation, and then the amount of isocyanate required. The molecular weight can be calculated from these equations if the fiinctionahty, is known mol wt = / eq wt.
