Polyquaternium-11 is a quaternized copolymer of vinylpyrrolidone and di-methylamine ethylmethacrylate, and is used at concentrations up to 50% in a variety of hair care preparations. The acute oral LD50 in test animals of high molecular weight Polyqua-ternium-11 is estimated to be greater than 12.8 g/kg; the LD50 for the low molecular weight polymer is calculated to be 6.2 g/kg. At concentrations of up to 50% in water, the raw ingredient produced no signs of skin or eye irritation. There was no evidence of dermal toxicity in subchronic tests nor in a maximization test for sensitization. In clinical studies, 1 of 19 subjects showed slight skin irritation after a 24-hour single insult skin patch with 9.5% Polyquaternium-11 in water. Repeated insult patch tests at concentrations up to 50% produced no instances of skin sensitization and only isolated instances of transient skin irritation. Clinical photoreactivity studies on both low and high molecular weight polymers showed no evidence of phototoxicity or photoallergenicity. From the available information, it is concluded that Polyquaternium-11 is safe as a cosmetic ingredient in the present practices of use.

An experimental investigation of the flow behavior of dilute, semi-dilute and concentrated polymer solutions has been carried out to gain a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms leading to the occurrence of instabilities at the advancing flow front during the filling of a mold cavity. Experiments were performed using various mass concentrations of low and high molecular weight polyacrylamide polymers in corn syrup and water. This paper reports a new type of elastic fingering instabilities at the advancing flow front that has been observed only in semi-dilute polymer solutions of high molecular weight polymers. These flow front elastic instabilities seem to arise as a result of a mixture of widely separated high molecular weight polymer molecules and low molecular weight solvent molecules, which gives rise to a largely non-uniform polydisperse solution, with respect to all the kinds of molecules in the resulting mixture (solvent molecules and polymer molecules). The occurrence of these instabilities appears to be independent of the injection flow rate and the cavity thickness. Moreover, these instabilities do not manifest themselves in dilute or concentrated regimes, where respectively, polymer molecules and solvent molecules are minor perturbation of the resulting solution. In those regimes, smooth flow fronts are confirmed from our experiments. Based on these findings, the experimental investigations have been extended to polymer melts. Different mixtures of polycarbonate melts of widely separated molecular weights (low and high molecular weights) were first prepared. The effect of the large polydispersity of the resulting mixtures on the flow front behavior was subsequently studied. The same instabilities at the flow front were observed only in the experiments where a very small amount of high molecular weight polycarbonate polymer has been mixed to a low molecular weight polycarbonate melt (oligomers).

1. Exhaustive fractionation of leaves from tobacco plants systemically infected with TMV has led to the isolation of two non-virus proteins, B3 and B6, and the detection of a third, A4, which do not occur in comparable uninfected plants. 2. Components B3 and B6 have been found consistently in a series of ten extracts from plants grown over an 18 month period in all seasons of the year. It is concluded that these components are as characteristic of the infected plant as TMV itself. 3. As they occur in the initial extracts, the non-virus proteins are of low molecular weight (S20 ca. 3). On treatment, each component tends to form a high molecular weight polymer with an electrophoretic mobility considerably greater than that of the starting material. The high molecular weight derivatives of A4, B3, and B6 have been designated A8, B8, and B7 respectively. There is no evidence that these high molecular weight components occur as such in the infected leaf. 4. The non-virus proteins are free of nucleic acid and are not infectious. They cross-react immunochemically with TMV. 5. Compared with TMV content, the amounts of the non-virus proteins found in infected leaf are relatively small, falling in the range of 10 to 150 micrograms per gm. of tissue.
