The dependence of the induction period of crystallization on supercooling was examined for the silver nitrate-ethylene glycol system over the concentration region of silver nitrate lome fraction of 0 to 0.12. Addition of AgNO3 to ethylene glycol was found to increase considerably the critical induction period of crystallization, although to a lesser extent than Ca(NO3)2, CaCl2, ZnCl2, LiCl and LiNO3 do. The effect of these salts on the critical induction period of crystallization in dimethylsulfoxide, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide and methanol was compared in terms of the solvent-rich composition limit of the glass-forming ability. By using the TTT(Time-Temperature-Transformation) theory, it has been deduced that the effect of the salts on the critical induction period of crystallization of ethylene glycol is probably due to the different dependences of viscosity on their concentration in ethylene glyco in the supercooling region.

Addition reactions of multi-functional amine, polyethylene imine (PEI) or diethylenetriamine (DETA), and poly(ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether (PEGDE) or poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA), have been investigated to obtain network polymers in H2O, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and ethanol (EtOH). Ring opening addition reaction of the multi-functional amine and PEGDE in H2O at room temperature or in DMSO at 90 °C using triphenylphosphine as a catalyst yielded gels. Aza-Michael addition reaction of the multi-functional amine and PEGDA in DMSO or EtOH at room temperature also yielded corresponding gels. Compression test of the gels obtained with PEI showed higher Young’s modulus than those with DETA. The reactions of the multi-functional amine and low molecular weight PEGDA in EtOH under the specific conditions yielded porous polymers induced by phase separation during the network formation. The morphology of the porous polymers could be controlled by the reaction conditions, especially monomer concentration and feed ratio of the multi-functional amine to PEGDA of the reaction system. The porous structure was formed by connected spheres or a co-continuous monolithic structure. The porous polymers were unbreakable by compression, and their Young’s modulus increased with the increase in the monomer concentration of the reaction systems. The porous polymers absorbed various solvents derived from high affinity between the polyethylene glycol units in the network structure and the solvents.

The time-differential perturbed angular correlation technique has been used to investigate the thermal behavior of a ZrO2−13.6 mole % MgO ceramic between room temperature and 1423 K. Two different quadrupole hyperfine interactions corresponding to a tetragonal structure have been found to result on cooling the ceramic from the single-phase cubic field. One of them agrees with that depicting the pure t-ZrO2 tetragonal phase and the other one has been interpreted as describing a high-MgO-content nontransformable t'–ZrO2 phase. As temperature increases, the latter gives rise to a similar but fluctuating interaction related to the oxygen vacancies mobility and which shows a thermal behavior analogous to that already reported for the stabilized cubic ZrO2. Above 1100 K these dynamic t'-sites transform into pure tetragonal ones which behave ordinarily, suffering the t → m phase transition when cooling to room temperature. Differences found between TDPAC results and information drawn from other techniques are discussed.

Pressure Changes

Polyalcohols such as ethylene glycol and glycerol at 3 M penetrate and activate spores of Dictyostelium discoideum incubated at room temperature. Higher concentrations of ethylene glycol result in lysis upon suspension of spores in dilute phosphate buffer. Erythritol and arabitol at 3 M do not penetrate or activate D. discoideum spores.Air-dried spores or those incubated in 2 M sucrose solutions are not activated with the usual heat treatment of 45 °C for 30 min. The plasmolyzed spores are activated at temperatures above 45 °C when heated in the presence of 2 M sucrose for 30 min. The temperature for maximum activation and the temperature for thermal inactivation of spores are raised 7–10 °C in high sucrose concentrations. Long-term incubation of heat-activated spores in 2 M sucrose solutions does not result in a return to dormancy.Moderate sucrose concentrations near 0.2 M do not block the heat-induced activation process but must be removed from the spore population to prevent a return to dormancy within 6 h. Other polyhydric compounds at 0.25 M concentration also cause spore deactivation within 6 h of room temperature incubation. Oxygen uptake of spores undergoing deactivation in 0.18 M sucrose is inhibited as compared to control levels. Moderate concentrations of sucrose do not block the early events of postactivation lag and the spores accumulate at the end of the lag phase. The longer the spores remain unswollen at the end of the postactivation lag phase, the greater the percentage of spores which return to dormancy. The effects of moderate sucrose concentration (lowered water activity) are not duplicated by the same quantity of Ficoll, indicating that the colligative properties of the sucrose solutions are responsible for deactivation.
