For poly(cu-(3-thienyl)alkanesulfonates), reported studies have been relatively sparse, but from those studies, many questions concerning these materials have emerged. For example, there is no information on how the regiochemistry of these polymers affects their physical properties. A full understanding of these materials requires more information on the correlation between morphology, conductivity, stability, and other physical attributes on the chemical structure and configuration. Compared to their non-sulfonated analogs, the poly(3-alkylthiophenes), we know little. 

For P(Py) and P(3AT), combination oxidant/dopants such as FeCla and CUBF4 (this in acetonitrile as well as aqueous medium), or oxidants such as ferricyanide may be used under similar reaction conditions. The polymers so obtained have conductivities equal or superior to those from electrochemical syntheses. Control of morphology, conductivity, doping, and related factors is however a little more difficult in chemical polymerizations, with slight changes in temperature, concentration and other factors yielding substantial differences in polymer properties, and even identical synthetic procedures never yielding exactly the same polymer each time. 

Practical appHcations have been reported for PVP/ceUulosics (108,119,120) and PVP/polysulfones (121,122) in membrane separation technology, eg, in the manufacture of dialysis membranes. Electrically conductive polymers of polyaruline are rendered more soluble and hence easier to process by complexation with PVP (123). Addition of small amounts of PVP to nylon 66 and 610 causes significant morphological changes, resulting in fewer but more regular spherulites (124). 

Because of the aqueous solubiUty of polyelectrolyte precursor polymers, another method of polymer blend formation is possible. The precursor polymer is co-dissolved with a water-soluble matrix polymer, and films of the blend are cast. With heating, the fully conjugated conducting polymer is generated to form the composite film. This technique has been used for poly(arylene vinylenes) with a variety of water-soluble matrix polymers, including polyacrjiamide, poly(ethylene oxide), polyvinylpyrroHdinone, methylceUulose, and hydroxypropylceUulose (139—141). These blends generally exhibit phase-separated morphologies. 

Element stmctures of chitincontaining sorbents are determined using standard methods. Behind the data of an element stmcture the contents of chitin in ChCS was calculated. The analysis of morphological frame of ChCS was conducted by a electron-microscopic method on a raster supermicroscope at increase from 500 up to 1000 times. For matching is samples ChCS were conducted IR reseai ch in the field of 400 - 4000 cm f... 

Some metals, such as cadmium, cobalt, and lead, are selectively car-diotoxic. They depress contractivity and slow down conduction in the cardiac-system. They may also cause morphological alterations, e.g., cobalt, which was once used to prevent excessive foam formation in beers, caused cardiomyopathy among heavy beer drinkers. Some of the metals also block ion channels in myocytes. Manganese and nickel block calcium channels, whereas barium is a strong inducer of cardiac arrhythmia. 

CNT films are also of interest from morphological aspect because their structure provides nanoscale voids within the networks of CNTs. For example, composites with conducting polymers are very interesting both from scientific and technological interests, since we would expect CNTs to give a well-dispersed film. 

A series of polyester-based TPU (566TPU series) were synthesized in our lab and used to blend with PVC to manufacture a modified PVC material for medical uses [14]. Morphological studies showed that 566TPU has very good compatibility with PVC. Detailed mechanical and electronic property tests were also conducted. Some of the data are provided in Tables 3 and 4. 

Perhaps the first practical application of carbonaceous materials in batteries was demonstrated in 1868 by Georges Le-clanche in cells that bear his name [20]. Coarsely ground MnO, was mixed with an equal volume of retort carbon to form the positive electrode. Carbonaceous powdered materials such as acetylene black and graphite are commonly used to enhance the conductivity of electrodes in alkaline batteries. The particle morphology plays a significant role, particularly when carbon blacks are used in batteries as an electrode additive to enhance the electronic conductivity. One of the most common carbon blacks which is used as an additive to enhance the electronic conductivity of electrodes that contain metal oxides is acetylene black. A detailed discussion on the desirable properties of acetylene black in Leclanche cells is provided by Bregazzi [21], A suitable carbon for this application should have characteristics that include (i) low resistivity in the presence of the electrolyte and active electrode material, (ii) absorption and retention of a significant...
