The form of the stochastic transfer function p x) is shown in figure 10.7. Notice that the steepness of the function near a - 0 depends entirely on T. Notice also that this form approaches that of a simple threshold function as T —> 0, so that the deterministic Hopfield net may be recovered by taking the zero temperature limit of the stochastic system. While there are a variety of different forms for p x) satisfying this desired limiting property, any of which could also have been chosen, this sigmoid function is convenient because it allows us to analyze the system with tools borrowed from statistical mechanics. 

The linkage between two chains can also be ionic. Thus the copolymer between ethylene and methacrylic acid (MA) (up to 15% MA), made by free radical polymerisation, yields a polymer with pendant carboxyl groups. Neutralisation with zinc ions gives a crosslinked, thermo-reversible polymer (Surlyn ). The resulting polymer (ionomer) has limited properties, although it is the favoured material for the outer covering of golf balls. 

Nonlinear optical organic materials such as porphyrins, dyes, and phthalocyanines provide optical limiting properties for photonic devices to control light frequency and intensity in a predictable manner. The optical limit of CNTs composites is saturated at CNTs exceeding 3.8wt% relative to the polymer mass (Chen et al., 2002). Polymer/ CNT composites could also be used to protect human eyes, for example, optical elements, optical sensors, and optical switching (Cao et al., 2002).

LiAsFe. According to the ionics studies on the limiting properties in various solvents, this excellent conductivity results from the combination of its ionic mobility and dissociation constant, although in neither category does LiPFe stand at the most outstanding position " ... 

Another related phenomenon to be discussed in 2.3 is known in the polymer literature as counterion condensation. This term refers to a phase transition-like switch of the type of singularity, induced by a line charge to solutions of (2.1.2), occurring at some critical value of the linear charge density. Counterion condensation as a limiting property of the solutions of the Poisson-Boltzmann equation was studied in detail in [11]—[19]. Presentation of 2.3 follows that of [17].

Naturally, the full proof of the above statements concerning M, the information-minimizing F, and the limit properties, which take us into the general theory of convexity, the Hahn-Banach theorem, and delicate minimization methods, are beyond the scope of this paper, and are being dealt with elsewhere. But once their theoretical justification is established, it is quite striking to see how simple is the formal derivation of an explicit expression of the first right-hand term in Eq. (3). This will be seen later on. 

Thus when the decomposition of Eq. (15) is valid together with the limit properties of Eq. (16), U2 goes to zero faster than P, or P2. ... 

Plasticizer compatibility is a second limiting property. This results from the fact the chloroparaffins containing less than approximately 40% chlorine have poor compatibility when used in conjunction with primary plasticizers 11). This is shown qualitatively in Table IV for a chlorinated single component w-paraffin at a level of 20% replacement of dioctyl phthalate. It is evident that the exudation first reaches its lowest value in the range 40 to 45% chlorine. This level of chlorine appears to be a minimum regardless of the length of the carbon chain of the paraffin.
