AbstractMolar masses, Mark-Houwink-Sakurada (MHS) exponents, and refractive index increments (dn/dc) for three lignins were determined without derivatization by multi-detector gel permeation chromatography (GPC) in dimethylformamide (DMF) with 0.05 M lithium bromide (LiBr). The lack of effectiveness of fluorescence filters on molar mass determination by GPC-multi-angle laser light scattering (MALS) was confirmed for softwood kraft lignin (Indulin AT) and revealed for mixed hardwood organosolv lignin (Alcell) as well as soda straw/grass lignin (Protobind 1000). GPC with viscometry detection confirmed that these lignins were present as compact molecules. The MHS exponent α for Indulin AT and Alcell was in the order of 0.1. Additionally, the intrinsic viscosity of Protobind 1000 for a given molar mass was much lower than that of either Alcell or Indulin AT. This is the first report of dn/dc values for these three lignins in DMF with 0.05 M LiBr.

Dermatan sulphates, in which iduronate was the predominant uronate constituent, were partially digested by chondroitinase ABC to produce oligosaccharides of the following structure: delta UA-[GalNAc(4SO3)-IdoA]mGalNAc(4SO3) [where m = 0-5, delta UA represents beta-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronate, IdoA represents alpha-L-iduronate and GalNAc(4SO3) represents 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-galactose 4-O-sulphate], which were fractionated by gel-permeation chromatography and examined by 100 MHz 13C-n.m.r. and 400/500 MHz 1H-n.m.r. spectroscopy. Experimental conditions were established for the removal of non-reducing terminal unsaturated uronate residues by treatment with HgCL2, and reducing terminal N-acetylgalactosamine residues of the oligosaccharides were reduced with alkaline borohydride. These modifications were shown by 13C-n.m.r. spectroscopy to have proceeded to completion. Assignments of both 13C-n.m.r. and 1H-n.m.r. resonances are reported for the GalNAc(4SO3)-IdoA repeat sequence in the oligosaccharides as well as for the terminal residues resulting from enzyme digestion and subsequent modifications. A full analysis of a trisaccharide derived from dermatan sulphate led to the amendment of published 13C-n.m.r. chemical-shift assignments for the polymer.

A natural moor soil humic acid (HA) was labeled with Tc-99m via reduction of pertechnetate with stannous chloride. The humic acid species obtained were characterized by thin layer chromatography (TLC), gel permeation chromatography (GPC), sequential chromatographic analysis (SCA), paper electrophoresis and micropore filtration. Labeling was found to take place in all ranges of molecular weight. Due to the complex humic acid composition and the formation of hydroxo species the labeling yields strongly depend on the separation conditions, ranging from 42% to 80%. The pH-dependent distribution of mobile and immobile species was determined by SCA for HTcO

The curing kinetic analysis is an important technique for the characterization of the curing behavior of reactive polymeric systems. In this study, fluoroepoxy oligomer was synthesized from trifluoromethyl aniline and epichlorohydrin. The epoxide equivalent weight (EEW) and the number average molecular weight (Mn) of the systhesized fluroepoxy oligomer determined from acid titration and gel permeation chromatography were found to be 312.16 g/eq and 534 g/mol, respectively. The mixtures of the fluoroepoxy oligomer were mixed with the cycloaliphatic amine in various stiochiometric ratios (1:1, 1: 1.5 and 1:2). The effects of the stiochiometric ratio on the curing behaviors were studied using both isothermal and non-isothermal DSC methods. Ozawas, Kissingers and Friedmans methods were employed to investigate the kinetic parameters. The results showed that the peak temperature (Tp) increased with the increasing heating rate. The activation energy (Ea) calculated from Ozawas and Kissingers methods were much larger than that from Friedmans method.
