Molecular unconventional

The purpose of this chapter is to introduce a new class of polymers for both types of biomedical uses a polymer system in which the hydrolytic stability or instability is determined not by changes in the backbone structure, but by changes in the side groups attached to an unconventional macromolecular backbone. These polymers are polyphosphazenes, with the general molecular structure shown in structure 1. 

To study the bulk copolymerization of styrene n-butyl methacrylate both conventional and unconventional GPC analyses were used. The normally obtained chromatograms, (from dual U.V. detectors) primarily provided area ratios intficative of composition as a function of retention volume. However, even this information was only obtainable after average compositions had been otherwise determined. Furthermore, in general, since the GPC normally separates on the basis of hydrodynamic volume, the polydispersity of aU polymer molecular properties at e h retention time is of serious concern.

Discussion of Photoelectron and Photofragment Images. The simplest picture for photoexcitation of a molecular Rydberg state would be that of a vertical transition (Av = 0), producing only O2, X(2Ilg)(t = 2) (direct ionization) in the example case. Here electronic motion (ionization) is assumed to be much faster than nuclear motion (dissociation). 02 is much more complicated, of course, and some of the deviations from the simplistic picture could be due not only to the molecule but also to the unconventional three-photon preparation scheme. It is thus important to consider the differences in one-photon and stepwise (2 + 1) excitation. Even with direct one-photon excitation at the energy equivalent of three laser photons, it is known, [78] for example, that the quantum yield for ionization is only 0.5 the other half of the molecules do, in fact, dissociate. 

Protein hydrolysates are usually produced by limited enzymatic hydrolysis of protein molecules in foodstuff, yielding polypeptides that are smaller in molecular mass. Protein hydrolysis has several aims. The most common is to make the protein moiety of afoodstuff soluble by reducing the size of the peptides. Solubilization simplifies isolation of the protein moiety by physical means. Protein hydrolysis has also been applied to improve the functional, organoleptic, and nutritional value of a foodstuff. Advances in the technology of protein hydrolysate production has allowed the use of unconventional protein sources for animal and human food.

Lubricating oil. A new process has been developed for the conversion of waste plastic and Fischer-Tropsch (FT) wax to lube range molecules that can be hydroisomerized to low pour point lube base oils of unconventional base oil (UCBO) quality. The process employs pyrolysis, a thermal, noncatalytic, low-pressure reaction where high-molecular-weight molecules are cracked to ones of lower molecular weight. The major by-product is diesel, with little production of C4- gas. The by-product liquids are highly olefinic and could be oligomerized to provide additional base oil.
