A rather crude, but nevertheless efficient and successful, approach is the bond fluctuation model with potentials constructed from atomistic input (Sect. 5). Despite the lattice structure, it has been demonstrated that a rather reasonable description of many static and dynamic properties of dense polymer melts (polyethylene, polycarbonate) can be obtained. If the effective potentials are known, the implementation of the simulation method is rather straightforward, and also the simulation data analysis presents no particular problems. Indeed, a wealth of results has already been obtained, as briefly reviewed in this section. However, even this conceptually rather simple approach of coarse-graining (which historically was also the first to be tried out among the methods described in this article) suffers from severe bottlenecks - the construction of the effective potential is neither unique nor easy, and still suffers from the important defect that it lacks an intermolecular part, thus allowing only simulations at a given constant density. 

In micro- and ultrafiltrations, the mode of separation is by sieving through line pores, where microfiltration membranes filter colloidal particles and bacteria from 0.1 to 10 mm, and ultrafiltration membranes filter dissolved macromolecules. Usually, a polymer membrane, for example, cellulose nitrate, polyacrilonytrile, polysulfone, polycarbonate, polyethylene, polypropylene, poly-tretrafhioroethylene, polyamide, and polyvinylchloride, permits the passage of specific constituents of a feed stream as a permeate flow through its pores, while other, usually larger components of the feed stream are rejected by the membrane from the permeate flow and incorporated in the retentate flow [10,148,149],...

A number of different polymers have been used in the production of microchip electrophoretic devices. One class of polymers is thermoplastics, which melt above a certain temperature but are hard at room temperature. Materials from this class that have been used in the formation of microchip devices include polymethylmethacrylate, polycarbonate, polyethylene, polystyrene, and a number of others. An excellent review on the fabrication and use of polymeric materials in microchips was presented by Becker and Gartner. The second class of materials is elastomeric polymers, the most widely used of which is poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS). Use of this material was covered in a review by McDonald et al. ...

When polymers slide on machined metal surfaces, it is quite possible that steady-state wear Involves a combination of abrasive, fatigue, and adhesive wear mechanisms. To study fatigue wear, it would be desirable to minimize the contributions of the abrasive and adhesive wear modes. In this paper, the following polymers polycarbonate, polyvinyl chloride, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, siloxane modified epoxies, and polylmldes are tested in experiments in which the fatigue wear mode is predominant.

Yet another limitation associated with the use of lignocellulosic fillers is the fact that the processing temperature of composites must be restricted to just above 200°C (although higher temperatures can be used for short periods of time), because of their susceptibility to degradation and/or the possibility of volatile emissions that could affect the composite properties. This limits the types of thermoplastics that can be used to polymers like polyethylene, PP, poly-vinyl chloride and polystyrene, which constitute, however, about 70 per cent of all industrial thermoplastics. Nevertheless, technical thermoplastics like polyamides, polyesters and polycarbonates, which are usually processed at temperatures higher than 250°C, cannot be envisaged as matrices for these types of conposite. 

The deterioration of polymer properties by ESC has been studied for several decades. But the actual mechanism is not certainly established (Hansen 2002). It is believed that in the presence of the stress, the active fluid causes local plasticization that generates crazes and eventually catastrophic cracks. The ultimate result in many cases is brittle fracture, even in normal ductile polymers like polyethylene, ABS, and polycarbonate. Since failure by ESC can be induced by environmental fluids like cleaning agents and lubricants and the mechanical stress can be the residual (molded-in) stresses, it was considered to be a silent killer (Sepe 1999). 

Thermoplastic polymers have links of intermolecular interactions or van der Waals forces in the form of linear or branched structures. They can melt easily when they are heated, are soluble in certain solvents, and have good resistance to creep. Two main groups of thermoplastic polymers are commodity polymers [eg, polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), and polystyrene (PS)] and engineering polymers [polyoxymethy-lene (POM), polyamides (PA), and polycarbonate (PC)] [1].

Other thermal analysis techniques have been used to identify polymers by the fingerprint approach. These include differential thermal analysis (Chapter 9), which has been used to identify polymers including polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyester, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and polycarbonate [1], and pyrolysis or photolysis techniques as discussed next. Equipment for carrying out these pyrolysis techniques is reviewed in Appendix 1.

Polymers include the familiar plastic and rubber materials. Many of them are organic compounds that are chemically based on carbon, hydrogen, and other nonmetallic elements (i.e., O, N, and Si). Furthermore, they have very large molecular structures, often chainlike in nature, that often have a backbone of carbon atoms. Some common and familiar polymers are polyethylene (PE), nylon, poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), polycarbonate (PC), polystyrene (PS), and silicone rubber. These materials typically have low densities (Figure 1.4), whereas their mechanical characteristics are generally dissimilar to those of the metallic and ceramic materials—they are not as stiff or strong as these...

In 1954 the surface fluorination of polyethylene sheets by using a soHd CO2 cooled heat sink was patented (44). Later patents covered the fluorination of PVC (45) and polyethylene bottles (46). Studies of surface fluorination of polymer films have been reported (47). The fluorination of polyethylene powder was described (48) as a fiery intense reaction, which was finally controlled by dilution with an inert gas at reduced pressures. Direct fluorination of polymers was achieved in 1970 (8,49). More recently, surface fluorinations of poly(vinyl fluoride), polycarbonates, polystyrene, and poly(methyl methacrylate), and the surface fluorination of containers have been described (50,51). Partially fluorinated poly(ethylene terephthalate) and polyamides such as nylon have excellent soil release properties as well as high wettabiUty (52,53). The most advanced direct fluorination technology in the area of single-compound synthesis and synthesis of high performance fluids is currently practiced by 3M Co. of St. Paul, Minnesota, and by Exfluor Research Corp. of Austin, Texas.
