AbstractThe insolubility in neutral condition is a major problem that confronts the further development of processing and uses of chitosan. Special emphasis has been put on the chemical modification of chitosan to explore its full potential. Studies on these methods are also encouraging and many kinds of water-soluble and alcohol-soluble derivatives have appeared. In this article, hydroxybutyl chitosan, a new type of thermosensitive polymer, was prepared through the chemical modification of 1,2-epoxybutane. Hydroxybutyl chitosan solution underwent sol/gel phase transition at a certain temperature lower than 20 °C, however, at high temperature, hydroxybutyl chitosan can form hydrogel with a certain mechanical strength. Hydroxybutyl chitosan could be an ideal themosensitive material applied in drug delivery system, tissue engineering and other biomedical fields.

ABSTRACTWhen the polymerization of Si(OCH3)4 is carried out in the presence of surface active agents, prolonged oscillations (over 1000 hrs) at the gel/xerogel transition are observed. The oscillations are of large amplitude, they are slow (several hrs/period), and they exhibit a chaotic behaviour. The probe by which these oscillations are observed is emission from excited state monomeric and excimeric pyrene. It is suggested tentatively that the driving forces for this oscillation are the structural relaxation of the secondary polymeric gel structure and the dispersion of adsorbed pyrene to thermodynamically favored adsorption sites. Relevant models could be those of oscillatory sol/gel phase transitions and of oscillatory polymerization reactions. We are unaware of previous observations of oscillations in sol/gel systems.
