An inverse gas chromatographic (IGC) study of the sorption properties of poly(ethylene glycol) modified with tosylate (PEG-TOS) was presented. PEG-TOS was synthesized via the tosylation of the corresponding poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) withp-toluenesulfonyl chloride in the basic medium. The synthesized PEG-Tos was characterized by FTIR-ATR and1HNMR techniques. The retention diagrams of n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane, n-nonane, n-decane, dichloromethane, chloroform, acetone, tetrahydrofuran, ethyl acetate, and ethanol on the PEG and PEG-Tos were plotted at temperatures in K between 303 and 373 by inverse gas chromatography technique. The dispersive component of the surface-free energy,γSD, of studied adsorbent surface was estimated using retention times of different nonpolar organics in the infinite dilution region. Thermodynamic parameters of adsorption (free energy,ΔGAS, enthalpy,ΔHAS, and entropy,ΔSAS), dispersive components of the surface energies,γSD, and the acid,KA, and base,KD, constants for the PEG and PEG-Tos were calculated and the results were discussed.

Different polymers were prepared by condensation polymerization of sebacic anhydride and adipic anhydride with ethylene glycol and poly(ethylene glycol). Their number average molecular weights were determined by end group analysis. Then, they were grafted on the prepared phthalocyaninatocopper(II) compounds with the general formula (NH2)4PcCu(II) having amino groups of 3,3',3'',3'''- or 4,4',4'',4'''- positions. All prepared polymers, compounds, and phthalocyaninatocopper(II)-grafted polymers were characterized by FTIR. The sizing measurements were carried out in 3,3',3'',3'''- (NH2)4PcCu(II) and 4,4',4'',4'''- (NH2)4PcCu(II) compounds with and without grafting polymers. The results showed that the grafting process led to decreasing in particle size and increasing in surface area. The grafting process was reflected positively on the thermal degradation of 3,3',3'',3'''- (NH2)4PcCu(II) and 4,4',4'',4'''- (NH2)4PcCu(II) grafted polymers. They had higher thermal stability accompanied with higher char residue and T50% weight loss with 3,3',3'',3'''-(NH2)4PcCu(II) and their grafted polymers being the best.

A synthetic method was developed to prepare biodegradable waterborne polyurethanes (BHPUs) with a high solid content by introducing different molecular weights of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) into poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL)-based polyurethanes.

Polylacticacid (PLA), produced from annually renewable, natural resources is a potential candidate for the partial replacement of petroleum based polymers and also for its biodegradability. PLA is well known for its better mechanical, thermal property but unfortunately the brittleness and rigidity limit its applicability. For a great number of applications such as packaging, fibers, films, etc., it is of high interest to formulate new PLA grades with improved flexibility and better impact properties. In order to develop PLA-based biodegradable packaging, the physico-mechanical properties of commercially available PLA should be modified using plasticizers. For this, PLA was melt-mixed with poly ethylene glycol (PEG) of 600 molecular weights by twin screw extruder. The thermal properties of plasticized PLA were characterized by utilization of dynamic mechanical analysis. The result shows that with addition of plasticizer glass transition temperature (Tg) is decreased sharply and the storage modulus was also decreased.
