AbstractThis review presents the use of Dynamic Lattice Liquid (DLL) model proposed by Pakula and coworkers. In the model polymer liquids are represented as dense systems of macromolecules. The model fulfils requirements of the local continuity and excluded volume conditions. The use of the model for numerical simulations of simple liquids, colloidal particles systems, solutions of linear polymers, branched like bottle-brush or star shaped polymers is described. The use of simulations for the prediction of the properties of the systems and their experimental validation is described. The model is presented as an universal tool for investigation of different systems that provides good agreement between numerical and experimental results for a broad range of the systems and conditions.

ABSTRACTSmall angle scattering experiments have demonstrated that the structure of the silicate species produced by the hydrolysis of silicon alkoxides in non-aqueous solvents ranges from extended, weakly cross-linked polymers to highly condensed, colloidal particles. In contrast, inorganic, aqueous silicate solutions yield primarily colloidal particles because the silicate species have a number of different silanol sites available and the preferred condensation reaction is that of weakly condensed species with highly cross-linked branch sites, such as those on an amorphous silica surface. It is proposed that in the alkoxide systems, however, the hydrolysis reaction may control the number and type of silanol sites available for condensation. In acid catalyzed reactions, the rate of hydrolysis of a silicate tetrahedron tends to decrease as alkoxide groups are removed. This favors the production of silanol sites on the end of chains, thus generating linear polymers. In base catalyzed reactions, it is argued that each subsequent hydrolysis of a tetrahedron should proceed more rapidly than the previous one, producing numerous branch points which are the preferred sites for condensation.

The vital role played by the lymphatic capillaries in the transfer of tissue fluids and particulate materials from the connective tissue area can be demonstrated by the rapid removal of injected vital dyes into the tissue areas. In order to ascertain the mechanisms involved in the transfer of substances from the connective tissue area at the ultrastructural level, we have injected colloidal particles of varying sizes which range from 80 A up to 900-mμ. These colloidal particles (colloidal ferritin 80-100A, thorium dioxide 100-200 A, biological carbon 200-300 and latex spheres 900-mμ) are injected directly into the interstitial spaces of the connective tissue with glass micro-needles mounted in a modified Chambers micromanipulator. The progress of the particles from the interstitial space into the lymphatic capillary lumen is followed by observing tissues from animals (skin of the guinea pig ear) that were injected at various time intervals ranging from 5 minutes up to 6 months.

An anodic oxide film is formed on aluminum in an acidic elecrolyte during anodizing. The structure of the oxide film was observed directly by carbon replica method(l) and ultra-thin sectioning method(2). The oxide film consists of barrier layer and porous layer constructed with fine hexagonal cellular structure. The diameter of micro pores and the thickness of barrier layer depend on the applying voltage and electrolyte. Because the dimension of the pore corresponds to that of colloidal particles, many metals deposit in the pores. When the oxide film is treated as anode in emulsion of polyelectrolyte, the emulsion particles migrate onto the film and deposit on it. We investigated the behavior of the emulsion particles during electrodeposition.Aluminum foils (99.3%) were anodized in either 0.25M oxalic acid solution at 30°C or 3M sulfuric acid solution at 20°C. After washing with distilled water, the oxide films used as anode were coated with emulsion particles by applying voltage of 200V and then they were cured at 190°C for 30 minutes.

Measurements of light scattering have given much information about formation and properties of fibrin. These studies have determined mass-length ratio of linear polymers (protofibrils) and of fibers, kinetics of polymerization and of lateral association and volume-mass ratio of thick fibers. This ratio is 5 to 1. On the one hand, this high value suggests that the fiber contains channels that allow the diffusion of enzymes such as Factor XHIa and plasmin; on the other hand, the high value appears paradoxical for a stiff fiber made up of elongated units (fibrin monomers) arranged in parallel. Such a high fiber volume is a property of only a small set out of many high-symmetry models of fibrin, which may be constructed from overlapping three-domain monomers which are arranged into strands, are aligned nearly parallel to the fiber axis and make adequate longitudinal and lateral contacts. These models contain helical protofibrils related to each other by rotation axes parallel to the fiber axis. The protofibrils may contain 2, 3 or 4 monomers per helical turn and there are four possible symmetries. A large specific volume is achieved if the ends of each monomer are slightly displaced from the protofibril axis, either by a shift or by a tilt of the monomer. The fiber containing tilted monomers is more highly interconnected; the two ends of a tilted monomer form lateral contacts with different adjacent protofibrils, whereas the two ends of a non-tilted monomer contact the same adjacent protofibril(s).

Laboratory Results

Retention of cationic dispersed rosin size was studied via turbidity measurements on stock filtrate with different alum and dispersed rosin size dosages. Stock charge characteristics were analyzed using both an analysis of charge demand determined via a streaming current detector and an evaluation of zeta potential of the fibers by streaming potential measurement. The results indicated that an optimum amount of alum existed such that good sizing retention was maintained throughout a wide range of dispersed rosin size dosages. However, when an excessive amount of alum was used and fines and colloidal particles were transitioned from anionic to cationic, the cationic size retention was reduced. Laboratory results were confirmed with a paper machine trial. All data suggested that a stock charge study was necessary to identify optimal alum dosage for a cationic dispersed rosin sizing program.

Understanding the miscibility behavior of ionic liquid (IL) / monomer, IL / polymer and IL / nanoparticle mixtures is critical for the use of ILs as green solvents in polymerization processes, and to rationalize recent observations concerning the superior solubility of some proteins in ILs when compared to standard solvents. In this work, the most relevant results obtained in terms of a three-component Flory-Huggins theory concerning the “Extra Solvent Power, ESP” of ILs when compared to traditional non-ionic solvents for monomeric solutes (case I), linear polymers (case II) and globular nanoparticles (case III) are presented. Moreover, useful ESP maps are drawn for the first time for IL mixtures corresponding to case I, II and III. Finally, a potential pathway to improve the miscibility of non-ionic polymers in ILs is also proposed.
