Injectable hydrogels of poly(?-caprolactone-co-glycolide)-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(?-caprolactone-co-glycolide) triblock copolymer aqueous solutions

Thermogelling triblock copolymers of poly(?-caprolactone-co-glycolide)-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(?-caprolactone-co-glycolide) [P(CL-GA)-PEG-P(CL-GA)] were successfully prepared by control of the hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity balance and chemical compositions of the copolymers. The aqueous solutions of the copolymers underwent sol-gel transition as the temperature was increased from 20 to 60 °C. The amphiphilic copolymer formed micelles in water and a gel was formed by aggregation of micelles. The structure parameters played a critical role in determining sol-gel transition behavior. Either increasing [GA]/[CL] ratio or decreasing P(CL-GA) block length could induce the increase of the lower sol-gel transition temperature. Glycolide (GA) was incorporated into the polymer chain to increase the polymer degradation rate. Sustained release of rifampicin for approximately 32 days was obtained from the gel. It is believed to have potential applications in drug delivery and tissue engineering.     

Lamellar Morphology of Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate)/Poly(ethylene oxide) Blends as Studied via Small Angle X-ray Scattering

The lamellar morphology of a melt-miscible blend consisting of two crystalline constituents, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) have been investigated by means of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). The blend was a crystalline/amorphous system when temperatures lay between the melting point of PEO (ca. T _m ^PEO=60C) and that of PHB (ca. T _m ^PHB=170C), while it became a crystalline/crystalline system below T _m ^PEO. The crystalline microstructures of the blends were induced by two types of crystallization history, i.e. one-step and two-step crystallizations. In the one-step crystallization, the blends were directly quenched from the melt to room temperature to allow simultaneous PHB and PEO crystallization. The two-step crystallization involved first cooling to 70C to allow PHB crystallization for 72 h followed by cooling to room temperature (ca. 19C) to allow PEO crystallization. In the crystalline/crystalline state, two scattering peaks have been observed in the Lorentz-corrected SAXS profiles, irrespective of the crystallization histories, meaning that crystallization created separate PHB and PEO lamellar stack domains. One-step crystallization yielded lamellar stack domains containing almost pure PHB and PEO lamellae. Two-step crystallization generated almost pure PHB lamellar domains and the PEO lamellar domains with inserted PHB lamellae. In the crystalline/amorphous state, the composition dependence of the amorphous layer thickness (l _a), the presence of zero-angle scattering, and the volume fraction of the PHB lamellar stack (_s) revealed that both one-step and two-step crystallizations, generated the interfibrillar segregation morphology, where the extent of interfibrillar segregation of amorphous PEO increased with increasing PEO content.

Synthesis and surface characterization of poly(methyl methacrylate)‐block‐polydimethylsiloxane copolymers from macroazoinitiator

Poly(methyl methyacrylate)‐block‐polydimethylsiloxane (PMMA‐b‐PDMS) copolymers with various compositions were synthesized with PDMS‐containing macroazoinitiator (MAI), which was first prepared by a facile one‐step method in our lab. Results from the characterizations of X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), contact angle measurements, and atomic force microscopy (AFM) showed that the copolymer films took on a gradient of composition and more PDMS segments enriched at the film surfaces, which then resulted in the low surface free energy and little microphase separation at the film surfaces. By contrast, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis demonstrated that distinct microphase separation occurred in bulk. Slight crosslinking of the block copolymers led to much steady morphology and more distinct microphase separation, in particularly for copolymers with low content of PDMS. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Preparation and characterization of sulfonated polyetherimide/polyetherimide blend membranes

Polyetherimide (PEI) was sulfonated by chlorosulfonic acid (CSA) in 1,2‐dichloroethane for the first time. With the increase of the CSA/PEI repeat unit ratio and/or reaction time, the ion‐exchange capacity (IEC) of the sulfonated polyetherimide (SPEI) increased accordingly. Water‐uptake testing and contact‐angle measurement showed that the hydrophilicity of the SPEI increases with the increase of the IEC. Membranes were fabricated from SPEI/PEI blends with different ratios. The morphologies of the blend membranes were examined by scanning electron microscopy, which showed that the membrane pore size is larger when SPEI with higher IEC was used. With the increase of SPEI ratio in the blend membranes, the membrane pore size also increased. The contact‐angle data of the membranes showed that the hydrophilicity of the blend membrane was elevated because of the sulfonate group on the SPEI molecular backbone. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Structure and properties of nitrile rubber (NBR)–clay nanocomposites by co‐coagulating NBR latex and clay aqueous suspension

Nitrile rubber (NBR)–clay nanocomposites were prepared by co‐coagulating the NBR latex and clay aqueous suspension. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the silicate layers of clay were dispersed in the NBR matrix at the nano level and had a planar orientation. X‐ray diffraction indicated that there were some nonexfoliated silicate layers in the NBR–clay nanocomposites. Stress–strain curves showed that the silicate layers generated evident reinforcement, modulus, and tensile strength of the NBR–clay nanocomposites, which were significantly improved with an increase in the amount of clay, and strain‐at‐break was higher than that of the gum NBR vulcanizate when the amount of clay was more than 5 phr. The NBR–clay nanocomposites exhibited an excellent gas barrier property; the reduction in gas permeability in the NBR–clay nanocomposites can be described by Nielsen's model. Compared with gum NBR vulcanizate, the oxygen index of the NBR–clay nanocomposites increased slightly. The feasibility of controlling rubber flammability via the nanocomposite approach needs to be evaluated further. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 89: 3855–3858, 2003     

起始水力梯度对真空预压下砂井地基固结过程的影响

针对粘土中孔隙水渗流存在起始水力梯度的现象,将考虑起始水力梯度的非Darcy渗流方程引入传统的砂井固结理论对其进行修正,并给出了真空预压下砂井地基固结近似解。探讨起始水力梯度对真空预压下砂井地基固结过程的影响,包括渗流前锋面的运动规律、孔隙水压力的分布变化规律和平均固结度的变化规律。结果表明,由于存在起始水力梯度,会延缓真空压力的传播,进而影响孔隙水的渗流和整个土层的固结速度。起始水力梯度越大,滞后现象越明显。此外,起始水力梯度的存在将使平均孔隙水压力逐渐趋于某一稳定值,但无法达到真空压力,所以最终平均固结度将小于100%,且其值随起始水力梯度的增大而减小。
