Interaction Parameter Χ

The size dependent miscibility of binary polymer blend films of polystyrene (PS) and tetramethylbisphenol-A polycarbonate (TMPC) is studied by the molecular dynamics (MD) simulation in the way of computing Flory-Huggins interaction parameter, χ, of the blend films, which determines the blend films compatibility. It is found that the miscibility of the two polymers decreases as the film thickness D decreases. After that, the size dependent glass transition temperature Tg(w,D) of the two polymers blend films in miscible ranges are determined by computer simulation and the Fox equation where w is the weight fraction of the second component.

Fabrication And Characterization

AbstractWe report the fabrication and characterization of the self-assembled structure of tri-n-octylphosphine oxide (TOPO)-capped CdSe nanocrystals in binary polymer phase separated films of polystyrene (PS), poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and poly(2-vinylpyridine) (P2VP). These structures are formed via demixing of CdSe nanocrystals and binary polymer during spin coating. The nanocrystals preferentially segregate to the PS-rich phase in phase separated PS/PMMA and to the P2VP-rich phase in phase separated PS/P2VP, as shown by optical microscopy and photoluminescence images. For CdSe/PS/PMMA, we attribute the driving force for CdSe segregating to the PS-rich domain to the stronger attractive interaction of TOPO on PS with respect to PMMA due to polarity, and in the case of CdSe/PS/P2VP, segregating to the P2VP-rich domain to the interaction such as coordinate bonds being formed between pyridine groups and surface Cd atoms.

SummaryHuman platelets frozen at −195° C (liquid nitrogen) retain their morphological integrity and ability to promote clot retraction when 5% dimethyl-sulfoxide and 5% dextrose are added to the suspending plasma medium. Slow freezing was more effective than direct immersion in the liquid nitrogen. Although similar results may be achieved with dimethylsulfoxide alone with rigidly controlled freezing rates, the addition of sugars may permit freezing under less critical conditions.Dimethylsulfoxyd und 5% Dextrose dem Plasmamilieu hinzugefügt werden. Das langsame Einfrieren ist effektiver als das direkte Eintauchen in flüssigen Stickstoff. Obschon ähnliche Resultate mit Dimethylsulfoxyd allein unter exakter Kontrolle der Einfrierungsgeschwindig-keit erreicht werden können, erlaubt die Zugabe von Dextrose ein Einfrieren unter weniger kritischen Bedingungen.
