Structure-performance relationship

Current practice of the conventional solid phase peptide synthesis (the Merrifield method) is based largely on the use of polystyrene and poly-dimethylacrylamide supports (see Fig. 17). The latter polymer was introduced in the 1970s [12,133 to provide a relatively more polar support, as compared with polystyrene. However, accumulation of experimental evidoice since then (ct Rrf. 70), indicates that an ideal polyn r support for SPPS should be comi tible with both polar (H-bonding) and nonpolar (hydrophobic) residues on the peptic grafts (Fig. 17). When the polymer support is not compatible with the growing peptide grafts, phase separation occurs, and the synthesis becomes inefficient or impracticable.

Structure-Performance Relationships in Surfactants, edited by Kunio Esumi and Minoru Ueno... 

Thermochemical and thermophysical properties are suitable for the elucidation of the structure-performance relationships of surfactants in solutions. The measurement of, for instance, integral dilution enthalpies provides an appropriate experimental basis [50,51]. The concentration functions of the dilution enthalpies of ammonium dodecane 1-sulfonate (Fig. 29) show a distinct depen-...
