Fourier poly

An amine-terminated poly ether (ATPE) is prepared as follows. Charge poly(tetramethylene oxide) diol (PolyTHF 1000, BASF, 75.96 g, 0.0759 m) to a 500-mL three-neck round-bottom flask fitted with a thermocouple, a mechanical stirrer, and a vacuum port. Add tert-butylacetoacetate (24.04 g, 0.1582 m) and apply vacuum. Heat at 175° C for 4 h, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis should indicate complete loss of the polyol OH absorption at 3300 cm. The room temperature viscosity of the product should be about 520 mPa-s. React this acetoacetylated product (85.5 g, 0.0649 m) with cyclohexylamine (14.5 g, 0.1465 m) at 110° C under vacuum for several hours. Cool the resultant cyclohexylaminocrotonate poly ether product to room temperature (1790 mPa-s at room temperature). 

The structure of poly(iminocarbonates) synthesized by the direct interfacial polymerization of BPA and cyanogen bromide was analyzed by NMR, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and elemental analysis and found to be identical in all aspects to authentic poly(imino-carbonates) obtained by solution polymerization (46).

The IR spectra of this new resist films on silicon substrates were measured with a Shimadzu FTIR-4000 Fourier transform spectrometer. The UV spectra of 4,4 -diazidodiphenyl methane in a quartz cell and the films of poly(styrene-co-maleic acid half ester) and the new resist on quartz substrates were measured with a Shimadzu UV-265FS double-beam spectrometer.

Fourier transform infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (FT-IFRAS) is applied to the study of corrosion protection of copper by an organic coating. Poly-N-vinyliroidazole (PVI(D) and poly-4(5)-vinylimidazole (PVI(4)) are demonstrated to be effective new polymeric anti-corrosion agents for copper at elevated temperatures. Oxidation of copper is suppressed even at 400° C. PVI(1) and PVI(4) are more effective anti-oxidants than the most commonly used corrosion inhibitors, benzotriazole and undecyllmldazole, at elevated temperatures. These new polymeric agents are water soluble and easy to treat the metal surface.

Strong evidence of ionic association was found by Stilbs and Lindman 69) in their PGSE study of aqueous polyelectrolyte solutions, polyacrylic acid and poly-methacrylic acid, neutralized by tetramethylammonium hydroxide, with or without sodium counterions. While polymer diffusion could not be detected since its T2 was too short, TMAOH and water diffusion was measured as function of degree of neutralization a, or Na+ content. A pronounced minimum of D(TMAOH) near a = 1 was interpreted in terms of a two-site model, leading to the determination that at a = 1, approximately half of the counterions are bound in both systems. Fourier transform techniques permitted the simultaneous measurement of diffusion of water and TMAOH.

Poly(vinyl acetate). The dielectric and mechanical spectra of hybrids produced by mixing a poly (vinyl acetate)—THF solution with TEOS, followed by the addition of HC1 have been investigated (45). Mixtures were made which were believed to be 0, 5, 10,15, and 20 wt °/o Si02, respectively. These composites were transparent and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir) revealed hydrogen bonding between the silicate network and carbonyl units of the poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc). No shift in the T of the composites from that of the pure PVAc was observed. Similady, the activation... 

Several researchers have combined the separating power of supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) with more informative spectroscopic detectors. For example, Pinkston et. al. combined SFC with a quadrupole mass spectrometer operated in the chemical ionization mode to analyze poly(dimethylsiloxanes) and derivatized oligosaccharides (7). Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) provides a nondestructive universal detector and can be interfaced to SFC. Taylor has successfully employed supercritical fluid extraction (SFE)/SFC with FTIR dectection to examine propellants (8). SFC was shown to be superior over conventional gas or liquid chromatographic methods. Furthermore, SFE was reported to have several advantages over conventional liquid solvent extraction (8). Griffiths has published several... 

The Fourier-transformed spectrum results in a row in the two-dimensional plot of the H chemical shifts versus the retention times. Within one separation run, up to 150 rows are accumulated, resulting in an overall acquisition time of 60 min. Figure 7.1.5 shows the stacked plot of the GPC-NMR separation, where the varying intensities of the OCH3 signals of PMMA at 3.58 ppm, in contrast to the OCH2 signal of poly(w-BuMA) at 3.95 ppm, can be readily seen. 

Laser desorption Fourier transform mass spectrometry (LD-FTMS) results from a series of peptides and polymers are presented. Successful production of molecular ions of peptides with masses up to 2000 amu is demonstrated. The amount of structurally useful fragmentation diminishes rapidly with increasing mass. Preliminary results of laser photodissociation experiments in an attempt to increase the available structural information are also presented. The synthetic biopolymer poly(phenylalanine) is used as a model for higher molecular weight peptides and produces ions approaching m/z 4000. Current instrument resolution limits are demonstrated utilizing a polyethylene-glycol) polymer, with unit mass resolution obtainable to almost 4000 amu.

Bioactive macromolecules like peptides, proteins, and nucleic acids have been successfully embedded in planar LbL films. An important question is the retention of the bioactivity of the film-embedded biomolecules. The structural properties and stability of the LbL films formed from synthesized polypeptides of various amino acid sequences were recently reported [50]. The authors showed that control over the amino acid sequence enables control over non-covalent interpolypeptide interaction in the film, which determines the film properties. Haynie and coworkers showed by circular dichroism spectroscopy that the extent of adsorption of poly(L-glutamic acid) (PGA) and poly(L-lysine) (PLL) in the LbL films scales with the extent of secondary structure of the polypeptides in solution [51]. Boulmedais demonstrated that the secondary structure of the film composed of these polypeptides is the same as the peptide structure in the complex formed in solution [52], as found by Fourier transform IR spectroscopy (FUR).
