Side branch

Fig. 7 gives an example of such a comparison between a number of different polymer simulations and an experiment. The data contain a variety of Monte Carlo simulations employing different models, molecular dynamics simulations, as well as experimental results for polyethylene. Within the error bars this universal analysis of the diffusion constant is independent of the chemical species, be they simple computer models or real chemical materials. Thus, on this level, the simplified models are the most suitable models for investigating polymer materials. (For polymers with side branches or more complicated monomers, the situation is not that clear cut.) It also shows that the so-called entanglement length or entanglement molecular mass Mg is the universal scaling variable which allows one to compare different polymeric melts in order to interpret their viscoelastic behavior. 

Eq. (87) really describes a needle crystal which, without noise, has no side branches. The corresponding star structure then cannot fill the space with constant density and the amount of material solidified in parabolic form increases with time, only fike rather than like P for a truly compact (initially finite) object in two dimensions. 

A natural mechanism for the local reduction of cell spacings (or creation of a new cell) is either a nucleation in one of the grooves (the liquid is supercooled) or, even more likely, the formation of a new cell out of a side branch in such a groove. Alternatively, tip-splitting of a cell may give the same result [121]. 

The initial development of a cellular structure from an originally flat interface has been at least partially understood [130]. Let us look only at the large-wavelength A limit (for more details see [122]). In the numerical calculations it was found [123] that for fixed cell-spacing A at increasing velocity a tail instability occurs. A side branch in the groove between two...

Normal alkanes (n-alkanes, n-paraffms) are straight-chain hydrocarbons having no branches. Branched alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons with an alkyl substituent or a side branch from the main chain. A branched... 

Fig. 3.11. Comparison of side branch broadening with Q-branch nonbroadening , made for nitrogen in [160] for 27°C and different pressures 15 atm (curve a), 25 atm (curve b), 40 atm (curve c), 60 atm (curve d). In the lower part 8a> is the width of resolved rotational components, 5v is the width of the non-resolved Q-branch, which is primarily isotropic.

Since good resolution of the Q-branch is hardly achievable by means of the usual Raman spectroscopy the first verification of this formula was carried out on side branches of anisotropic spectra which are easier to resolve (see Fig. 0.2 and Fig. 3.1). Generally speaking the right formula for component widths of these branches must be separately derived [212] but approximate estimation for the S-branch may be done as proposed in [213] ... 

The latter value is equal to 1 for the isotropic spectrum. For the anisotropic one it is only 1/4, because the remaining intensity of the normalized spectrum is distributed between the side branches. 

The lower boundary corresponds to strong collisions, and the upper one to weak collisions. This conclusion can be confirmed by experiment. According to [259], nitrogen dissolved in SF6 has a symmetrical spectrum of isotropic scattering, indicating that collapse of the spectrum has already occurred. At the same densities, the Q-branch of the anisotropic spectrum is still well separated from the side branches, and in [259] the lower bound for its half-width is estimated as 5 cm-1. So,...

Butadiene and isoprene have two double bonds, and they polymerize to polymers with one double bond per monomeric unit. Hence, these polymers have a high degree of unsaturation. Natural rubber is a linear cis-polyisoprene from 1,4-addition. The corresponding trans structure is that of gutta-percha. Synthetic polybutadienes and polyisoprenes and their copolymers usually contain numerous short-chain side branches, resulting from 1,2-additions during the polymerization. Polymers and copolymers of butadiene and isoprene as well as copolymers of butadiene with styrene (GR-S or Buna-S) and copolymers of butadiene with acrylonitrile (GR-N, Buna-N or Perbunan) have been found to cross-link under irradiation. 

Butane, is the either of two saturated hydrocarbons, or alkanes, with the chemical formula of C4H10 of the paraffin series. In both compounds the carbon atoms are joined in an open chain. In n-butane (normal), the chain is continuous and unbranched whereas in i-butane (iso) one of the carbon atoms forms a side branch. This difference in structure results in small but distinct differences in properties. Thus, n-butane melts at -138.3 °C (-216.9 °F) and boils at -0.5 °C (31.1 °F), and i-butane melts at -145 °C (-229 °F) and boils at -10.2 °C (13.6 °F). 

If an organic compound is complex, with many side branches, the main chain may not be obvious. Sketch the compound in your notebook or on scrap paper. Circle or highlight the main chain.
