The copolymer of phenol and acrylamide was synthesized by copolymerization using horseradish peroxidase (HRP)/H2O2 as catalyst. The effect of monomer composition on the copolymer tanning agent properties was investigated. The structure of the copolymer was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The molecular weight was determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The result shows that the average molecular weight of the copolymer is about 1900. Its molecule distribution index is much narrower. The copolymer was used as tanning agent, the result shows that the applied leather is excellent in softness and dyeing.

A phenolic copolymer was synthesized from resorcinol (RSC) and 3,5-dihydroxy benzoic acid (DBA) using horseradish peroxidase (HRP)/H2O2 as the radical copolymerization’s initiateor. It was discussed that the effects of monomer composition on the properties of the copolymer. The best molar ratio was 1:1. The structure and properties of the copolymer was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (HNMR), Molecular weight (MW) was determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The result shows that the average molecular weight of the copolymer is about 40000. The effect of dosage of HRP on the properties of the copolymer was investigated. And the mechanism of polymerization of RSC and DBA was advanced. The copolymer was used as tanning agent, applied results show that it has excellent retanning properties. It was realized the applicatiom of HRP on the phenols syntan.

The radical copolymerization of resorcinol (RSC) and 3,5-dihydroxyl benzoic (DHBA) was carried out in water by the initiator of horseradish (HRP)/H2O2. It was discussed that the effects of monomer composition on the properties of the copolymer. The best monomer mass ratio of RSC:DHBA was 60:40 and the shrink temperature can reached to 88.5oC. The tanning result indicated that the copolymer of RSC and DHPA has particularly excellent tanning properties and can be served as leather tannage substitute for chrome tanning materials. And also the mechanism of the HRP initiated copolymerization was proposed. The structure and molecular weight of the copolymer was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC). The copolymer can be as tannage and retannage in making leather process. The results showed that it has excellent tanning properties and retanning effects.

Abstract An iterative computer method was proposed for estimating the degree of branching and molecular weight distribution simultaneously from a pair of measurements on intrinsic viscosity and gel-permeation chromatography. The validity of the method as applied to randomly branched polymers was tested by using both fractionated and unfractionated samples of branched polystyrenes. It was experimentally concluded that the average number of branch points per unit molecular weight, λ, can be determined by this method with an accuracy of about 15%, and the weight-average molecular weight with accuracy of about 10%.

Novel titanium complex [2-O-(5- NO2)C6H3CH=N[(C6H4) –2-O ]]2TiCl2 (1) has been prepared by treatment of the ligand complex 1a with TiCl4•2THF in dichloromethane solution. The complex 1a and 1 were characterized by 1H-NMR . Activated by MAO, Complex 1 displayed very high activity for methyl methacrylate polymerization and the viscosity-average molecular weight of PMMA is more than 35×104 at 60°C.The molecular-weight distribution of PMMA measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) is narrow.

A controlled-molecular-weight LARCr'-CPI 2 poly(amide acid) was synthesized to investigate solution property changes that result from aging'Both dilute and concentrated solutions were aged at five temperatures and periodically analysed over a 33 d period. Various molecular weight parameters were obtained by gel permeation chromatography in combination with differential viscometry. Chemical changes were also followed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The temperatures used allowed the calculation of the energy of activation associated with changes in weight and number average molecular weights.

A New emulsion type paint was prepared by utilizing polyol for the production of polyurethane by reaction with an isocyanate was obtained by the synthesis of palm oil-based oleic acid with glycerol. Dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid (DBSA) was used as catalyst and emulsifier. The various methods for preparing Polyurethane /clay nanocomposites, but in this research the author choice by a pre-polymer method and were evaluated by fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra to determine micro-domain structures of segmented PU. The molecular weight (MW) of polyol was obtained by using gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and the result was about 950. The micro domain structures of the segmented PU were analyzed by FTIR by following the work of Seymour, et.al. to estimated the degree of phase separation in segmented PU. The formation of hydrogen bonding by C=O group can be determined by examining the peak position at 1709 cm-1 for hydrogen bonded C=O and at 1731 cm-1 for free C=O. The molecular weight (MW) of PU based on palm oil was about 3.266. The performance characteristics of materials indicate to be comparable with the corresponding industrial standard.

Starting from a chitosan sample with a degree of deacetylation of 71%, three separate sample sets were generated by successive deacetylation and reacetylation processes. The degree of deacetylation of samples was determined by UV spectrometry supported by thermogravimetric analysis. The molecular weight of chitosan samples was determined in a solvent system of 0.25 M CH3COOH/0.25 M CH3COONa, using viscometry and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) with a TSK-gel column. The first set of samples had a similar degree of deacetylation (DDA) but differing molecular weights. The second set of samples had a similar molecular weight but differing degrees of deacetylation. The Mark-Houwink-Sakurada constants used for the determination of viscosity average molecular weight and the universal calibration of the GPC system were K = 1.40 × 10-4 dL/g and a = 0.83. Results showed that molecular weights determined from both techniques are in good accord only at lower degrees of deacetylation. This may be attributed to the fact that the chemical structure of chitosan samples could have been largely altered with increasing or decreasing degree of deacetylation. Nevertheless, the trend with which the molecular weights vary with the deacetylation time is consistent over a limited DDA range. A literature review of molecular weight analysis of chitosan is included.Key words: chitosan, degree of deacetylation, gel permeation chromatography, molecular weight, viscometry.
