However, in another approach, it is just becoming apparent that some types of luminescent metal complexes display spectroscopic properties that facilitate the monitoring of kinetic events during a variety of industrially important poly-... 

However, disorder appears to be crucial in the occurrence of photoexcited paramagnetic centers since irradiation of single crystal samples, e.g. poly TS, has no effect. The energy levels in the low energy absorption tail of the disordered samples play an important part. It is not clear if these derive from excitonic or interband transitions but it should be noted that in principle any distortion of the polymer chain can lead to defect states in the optical gap ( ) and that the weak absorption tail in crystals is a major factor determining photoconduction (9 ). Thus, it appears that a basis exists for the correlation of structure and the intrinsic absorption spectra but that further efforts are required to obtain a better understanding of defect states and their spectroscopic properties. 

The dielectric strength of polyethylene has been measured as a function of additive concentration while in stabilised polymers the depth of degradation was found to be uniform . HALS have been found to be effective stabilisers for UV cured coatings and do not influence the cure rate . Bleached wood pulps can be effectively stabilised by ascorbic acid and wool by hydroxy-benzotriazoles and HALS . Hydroxybenzotriazole stabilisers also protect wood pulp and polyurethanes by co-reaction . The spectroscopic properties of monomeric and polymeric benzotriazoles have also been compared . UV absorbers are effective in clear coats and when grafted to wood . Dihydroxybenzophenone stabilisers inhibit the chain scission in the photodegradation of poly(methoxyacrylophenone) while tin stabilisers have also been found to photostabilise PVC .

The poly(ADPR) polymerase was stimulated by histone HI when the HI enzyme ratio was of 2 histones H2A, H2B, H3, and H4 had little effect on the sDNA-linked enzyme [16-18]. The specific sDNA fraction also protects some enzyme sites against inhibition. Ultraviolet spectroscopic properties of sDNA suggested the presence of single stranded or denaturated DNA portions in sDNA. The Km for NAD was shown to vary with the DNA concentration and two apparent Km could be defined, depending on the DNA concentration. It may correspond to some conformational changes in the enzyme or in the enzyme-DNA complex. The ratio of the apparent K for sDNA to the enzyme concentration is constant at any enzyme level. Moreover, the minimum estimation of the number of base pairs of sDNA required for maximal activation of one enzyme molecule was 16, while for calf thymus DNA this estimation was 640 [16]. 

Another approach involves the synthesis of a poly mer with a structure able to interact with the CNTs. The mutual interaction between the CNT surface and a polymer can be achieved by using conjugated polymers, which can associate with the CNTs by means of electronic 7t-u interactions with the CNT lattice. These ti-ti interactions lead to substantial modification of the optical and vibrational spectroscopic properties of the conjugated polymers. The results of a microscopic and spectroscopic study of this kind of composites [study carried out... 

Free radical chlorination of poly(phenylsilane) produces poly(chlorophenylsilane) These chlorinated polymers can be substituted with a variety of nucleophiles such as MeOH or MeMgBr with high selectivities. The spectroscopic properties of these materials are extremely sensitive to the nature of the substituent attached to the polymer backbone. The UV properties of a series of polysilanes containing Si-H, Si-Cl, Si-R and Si-OR functionalities are reported. The absorption maximum of poly(phenylsilane) appears at 294 ran (esi-si = 2489 cm-iM 0 whereas that of poly(methylphenylsilane) appears at 328 nm (esi-si = 4539 cm-iM-i). The absorption spectra of poly(metiioxyphenylsilane) are red shifted considerably relative to the other polymers (X = 348 nm, esi-si = 2710 cm- M-O. These substituent effects are likely due both to conformational as well as electronic perturbations on tfie Si-Si backbone chromophore. 

Spectroscopic Properties. The UV absorption spectrum of poly(phenylsilane) 1 contains a weak transition at 294 nm (esi-si = 2489 crn- M Figure la). The absorption band assigned as the Si(o-a ) transition occurs at 294 nm and likely contains considerable phenyl (tc-tc ) character, as suggested by energy band calculations.((55) In contrast to other substituted polysilanes of similar molecular weight, we were unable to detect fluorescence for poly(phenylsilane) at room temperature in THF. 

The recent interest in substituted silane polymers has resulted in a number of theoretical (15-19) and spectroscopic (19-21) studies. Most of the theoretical studies have assumed an all-trans planar zig-zag backbone conformation for computational simplicity. However, early PES studies of a number of short chain silicon catenates strongly suggested that the electronic properties may also depend on the conformation of the silicon backbone (22). This was recently confirmed by spectroscopic studies of poly(di-n-hexylsilane) in the solid state (23-26). Complementary studies in solution have suggested that conformational changes in the polysilane backbone may also be responsible for the unusual thermochromic behavior of many derivatives (27,28). In order to avoid the additional complexities associated with this thermochromism and possible aggregation effects at low temperatures, we have limited this report to polymer solutions at room temperature.
