Dilute solution properties of poly(2‐methoxycyanurate) of bisphenol F and bisphenol A

Abstract

Poly(2‐methoxycyanurate) of bisphenol F and bisphenol A (PMCBFA) was synthesized and fractionated by a fractional precipitation method. The fractions were characterized by viscometry, osmometry and gel permeation chromatography. The Mark–Houwink–Kuhn–Sakurada (MHKS) parameters were established in four solvents and at four different temperatures. The unperturbed dimensions and their coefficients in different solvents were computed using the Stockmayer–Fixman excluded volume theory. From the solution study it was found that PMCBFA is highly flexible. This may be due to the ether linkage present in the main chain.

New amphoteric graft copolymers of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose with acrylamide and dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate: Aqueous solution properties

“…The decrease in the [] with increasing T indicates a decrease in the hydrodynamic volume of CGAD macromolecule. This is due to the conformational and solvent changes associated with increasing T. According to Rangarai et al, 22,23 the increase in the temperature of a polymer solution produces two antagonistic effects. First, an increase in temperature generally leads to an increase in solvent power, that is, the solubility of the polymer in a solvent increases.…”

Controlled release of chlorpheniramine maleate through IPN beads of sodium alginate‐g‐methylmethacrylate

“…For instance, % equilibrium swelling decreased from 508 to 329 with increasing amount of GA from 2.5 to 7.5 mL. This is due to the increased cross‐link density and decreased pore volume of the IPN matrix32 with increasing amount of GA in the matrix. By increasing the drug loading of the matrix, % water uptake also increased, i.e., as the drug wt % loading increased from 5 to 15%, the % equilibrium swelling were 482, 525, and 550, respectively.…”

Novel methyl cellulose‐grafted‐acrylamide/gelatin microspheres for controlled release of nifedipine

“…Extent of crosslinking controls equilibrium swelling. For instance, % equilibrium swelling decreased from 495 to 436 with an increasing amount of GA from 2.5 to 7.5 mL, probably due to increased crosslink density and decreased pore volume of the blend matrix 29. Alternatively, with increasing drug loading in the matrix, % equilibrium water uptake also increased from 436 to 486.…”
