Performance Chemical Groups, below

At the outset, one must understand certain principles of GC to assess if it is a proper analytical tool for the purpose. If so, how to achieve the best separation and identification of component mixtures in the sample with reasonable precision, accuracy, and speed And what kind of detector and column should be selected for the purpose It is, therefore, important to examine the type of compounds that are to be analyzed and certain physical and chemical properties of these compounds. Information regarding the structure and the functional groups, elemental composition, the polarity in the molecule, its molecular weight, boiling point, and thermal stability are very helpful for achieving the best analysis. After we know these properties, it is very simple to perform the GC analysis of component mixtures. To achieve this, just use an appropriate column and a proper detector. Properties of columns and detectors are highlighted below in the following sections. 

When primary aliphatic isocyanates that show the lowest reactivity compared to secondary or aromatic isocyanates are used in combination with hydrophilic (pre-) polymers, crosslinking may be performed in aqueous solution without the use of additional crosslinkers. At neutral pH, hydrolysis of isocyanates to carbaminic acid with subsequent decarboxylation yields amines. These amines react much more rapidly than water with isocyanates, resulting in crosslinking if the functionality per macromolecule is more than two [43], This crosslinking reaction can be quenched by adjustment of the pH value. At pH values above 10, carbamate formation is faster than decarboxylation, whereas at pH values below 3 an almost quantitative protonation of the formed amino groups results in the formation of ammonium. In both cases, chemical crosslinking is prevented. 

Numerous studies have been performed on the dynamic generation from DCLs of either molecular receptors for substrates or substrates for receptors [35-39, 46]. Work in our group has been directed in particular towards the influence of physical and chemical stimuli on the behavior of DCLs, as for instance in the case of the constitutional dynamic reorganization exerted by temperature and protonation on imine libraries [45], the induction of liquid crystal properties by an electric field acting on a dynamic library [47], or component selection induced by cation binding in a folded dynamer chain [48] (see also below).
