1. The initial steps on the myosin ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) pathway are taken to be: (formula; see text) A two-step binding for ATP is assumed, but the evidence for it is unconvincing; because of the rapidity of the process unambiguous values for K1 and K2 are not available. 2. We investigated the myosin mechanism by the chemical flow-quench technique. Reaction mixtures containing [gamma-32P]ATP plus myosin subfragment 1 were quenched in unlabelled ATP (ATP chase) or acid (Pi burst). 3. We show that the ATP-chase method can lead directly to unambiguous values for K1 and k+2. 4. The binding process was slowed down by 40% ethylene glycol. It was studied as a function of the ATP concentration. A limiting plateau resulted, showing a two-step binding for ATP, and values for K1 and k+2 were obtained. 5. K1 and k+2 are rather sensitive to the experimental conditions. Ethylene glycol and lowering of the pH decrease both constants, but an increase in KCl concentration increases them. This suggests that the binding of ATP to myosin is of an electrostatic nature. 6. The Pi-burst method can lead directly to k+3 + k-3, but under certain conditions the kinetics are governed by K1 and k+2. This uncertainty of the interpretation of Pi-burst experiments is discussed.

The non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of double-crystallizable poly(ethylene glycol)–poly(l-lactide) diblock copolymer (PEG-PLLA) and poly(ethylene glycol) homopolymer (PEG) were studied using the fast cooling rate provided by a Fast-Scan Chip-Calorimeter (FSC). The experimental data were analyzed by the Ozawa method and the Kissinger equation. Additionally, the total crystallization rate was represented by crystallization half time t1/2. The Ozawa method is a perfect success because secondary crystallization is inhibited by using fast cooling rate. The first crystallized PLLA block provides nucleation sites for the crystallization of PEG block and thus promotes the crystallization of the PEG block, which can be regarded as heterogeneous nucleation to a certain extent, while the method of the PEG block and PLLA block crystallized together corresponds to a one-dimensional growth, which reflects that there is a certain separation between the crystallization regions of the PLLA block and PEG block. Although crystallization of the PLLA block provides heterogeneous nucleation conditions for PEG block to a certain extent, it does not shorten the time of the whole crystallization process because of the complexity of the whole crystallization process including nucleation and growth.

Poly(ethylene terephthalate) fabrics are treated with sodium hydroxide using ethylene glycol or glycerin as the solvent. Compared with conventional aqueous alkaline hydrolysis, the degradation rate in ethylene glycol increases tenfold. The kinetics of the alkaline-ethylene glycol treatment show that the weight loss is linear with respect to time. The moisture regain rate and tensile properties of the treated fabrics are measured; other tests include scanning electron microscopy and dyeing properties. The results show that the properties of the treated fabrics do not depend significantly on the solvent; therefore, using ethylene glycol can greatly shorten the treatment time to achieve results similar to those with the conventional aqueous system.
