A Theoretical Investigation of the Polyaddition of an AB+A+B Monomer Mixture.

Hyperbranched polymers (HBPs) are widely applied nowadays as functional materials for biomedicine needs, nonlinear optics, organic semiconductors, etc. One of the effective and promising ways to synthesize HBPs is a polyaddition of AB+A+B monomers that is generated in the A+CB, AA'+B, A+B'B, and A+C+B systems or using other approaches. It is clear that all the foundational features of HBPs that are manufactured by a polyaddition reaction are defined by the component composition of the monomer mixture.

Curing of Poly(styrene-co-methyl methacrylate-co-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) Terpolymers in the Presence of Amino Compounds of Different Structures.

The process of curing the acrylic oligomers for rapid thermal curing coatings in the presence of hexa(methoxymethyl)melamine (HMMM), tetra(butoxymethyl)glycoluril (TBMG), and tetra(methoxymethyl)glycoluril (TMMG) has been studied. When HMMM is used as a hardener, the content of hydroxyl groups in the terpolymer and also the crosslinking agent concentration have little effect on the initial cure rate. It has been established that during the curing of the TMMG composition, the amount of the network polymer and the initial curing rate decrease at short curing times only.

Synthesis and Study of Properties of Waterborne Polyurethanes Based on β-Cyclodextrin Partial Nitrate as Potential Systems for Delivery of Bioactive Compounds.

Eco-friendly waterborne polyurethanes (WPU) find wide application in agriculture as pesticide carriers, which enhances their efficiency. To provide better control of the retention time and capacity of pesticides, WPU can be modified by cyclodextrin derivatives able to form supramolecular assemblies with bioactive substances. Synthesis of WPU containing up to 15 wt.

One-Pot Synthesis of Hyperbranched Polyurethane-Triazoles with Controlled Structural, Molecular Weight and Hydrodynamic Characteristics.

We report a simple and convenient approach to the one-pot synthesis of hyperbranched polyurethane-triazoles with desirable properties. This method is based on in situ generation of an + + azide-acetylene monomer mixture of known composition, due to quantitative reactions of urethane formation between isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), 1,3-diazidopropanol-2 (DAPOL) (in the first stage) and propargyl alcohol (in the second stage). The obtained monomer mixture can be involved in step-growth polymerization by azide-alkyne cycloaddition without additional purification (in the third stage).

Cellulose from Annual Plants and Its Use for the Production of the Films Hydrophobized with Tetrafluoroethylene Telomers.

Cellulose was produced by the modified traditional method with 35% yield from the stem of Sosnovsky hogweed and was characterized by elemental analysis, infrared (IR) spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffractometry, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). For , the degree of crystallinity (approximately 70%) and the glass transition temperature (105-108 °C) were determined. It was found that the whiteness characteristic in the case of was 92% and this significate was obtained without a bleaching procedure using chlorine-containing reagents.
