Cationic copolymerization behavior of a bicyclic orthoester having hydroxy group with glycidyl phenyl ether and volume change on their copolymerization

This article describes cationic ring‐opening copolymerization of a bicyclic orthoester having hydroxy group (BOE‐OH) and glycidyl phenyl ether (GPE), and the volume shrinkage behavior during the copolymerization. THF soluble polyethers [poly(BOE‐OH‐co‐GPE)] were obtained by the copolymerizations at 80–180°C, while crosslinked poly(BOE‐OH‐co‐GPE) was obtained by the copolymerizations at 220–250°C. This crosslinking reaction may originate from the dehydration of methylol groups in the side chain of poly(BOE‐OH‐co‐GPE). The volume shrinkage during the cationic copolymerization reduced as the increase of the BOE‐OH feed ratio. By contrast, the volume shrinkage on the crosslinking polymerization was almost independent on the BOE‐OH feed ratio. Poly(BOE‐OH‐co‐GPE)s with higher BOE‐OH composition showed lower thermal weight loss temperature owing to the release of H₂O by dehydration of methylol groups. The BOE‐OH component in the THF soluble poly(BOE‐OH‐co‐GPE)s lowered the glass transition temperature (T_g), while that in the crosslinked poly(BOE‐OH‐co‐GPE) increased the T_g probably because of the higher crosslinking density. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Dual segment rectangular dielectric resonator antenna with metamaterial for improvement of bandwidth and gain

The simulation and experimental studies of an aperture‐coupled wideband dual segment rectangular dielectric resonator antenna with metamaterial for C‐band applications are presented in this paper. The antenna consists of Alumina (Al₂O₃) ceramic as upper segment and Teflon as lower segment. The combination of circular‐shaped coplanar split‐ring resonator and conducting strip has been used as metamaterial superstrate. With the use of metamaterial superstrate, the bandwidth of the antenna is increased by 48% through simulation and 22% experimentally. The broadside radiation pattern of the antenna is converted into directive radiation pattern with reduced beamwidth when metamaterial superstrate is used. The peak gain of the antenna is also enhanced by 33% through simulation and 31% experimentally with the use of metamaterial superstrate. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A novel triple notch‐bands ultra wide‐band band‐pass filters using parallel multi‐mode resonators and CSRRs

This article discusses a technique based on combination of multimode resonators (MMR) and complementary split ring resonators (CSRR) to design multi notch‐bands ultra wide‐band (UWB) band‐pass filters (BPF). The proposed structure consists of two parallel multimode resonators, resulting in a dual notch‐band UWB BPF, integrated with a single cell of CSRR to realize the third notch‐band. The mechanism of realizing the notch‐bands is mathematically presented and a triple notch‐bands UWB BPF is designed, simulated and fabricated. The overall size of the proposed filter is reported to be around 36 × 7.7 mm² where a size reduction of around 35% is demonstrated in comparison to the conventional filter. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effects of the o‐aromatic ring in the molecular chain on the properties of polyester polyols

A series of liquid polyester polyols from adipic acid (AA), phthalic anhydride (PA), ethylene glycol, propanediol‐1,2, and trihydroxymethylpropane, varying in the molar ratio of PA to AA, were prepared. The effects of the o‐aromatic ring in the molecular chain, which came from PA, on the viscosity, glass‐transition temperature, and thermal degradation temperature of the polyester polyols were studied with viscometry, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetry. The intrinsic viscosity and glass‐transition temperature increased with the concentration of the o‐aromatic ring increasing. The temperature of the maximum thermal degradation rate for aliphatic polyester polyols was 434.20°C. Two steps of thermal degradation were found when there were o‐aromatic rings in the molecular chain. One thermal degradation temperature was 358.36–360.48°C, and the other was 412.85–427.18°C. Polyester polyols with o‐aromatic rings had higher stability at lower temperatures (<240.00°C). However, aliphatic polyester polyols had higher stability at higher temperatures (300.00–480.00°C). The activation energy and order of degradation were calculated from thermogravimetric curves. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 83: 1617–1624, 2002     

The ring transformations of 1,2,3,4-diepoxybutane (2,2′-bioxirane) catalysed by various aluminosilicates

The transformations of a molecule containing two adjacent epoxide rings, 2,2-bioxirane that is, were studied over various acidic aluminosilicates (HZSM-5, HY-FAU, AlMCM-41), for the first time, In the 373–473 K temperature range, in a pulse reactor, a ring-opening–ring-enlargment reaction producing furan only occured over the zeolites and it was the predominant reaction on AlMCM-41 as well. The driving force of this transformation route is water formation via elimination from 2,2-bioxirane. Suprising is the lack of the mono- or dialdehyde, the would-be products of the cleavage of the sterically more hindered C–O bonds – an acid-catalysed reaction typical for alkyl-substituted oxiranes.     

Degradation of the oxirane ring of epoxidized vegetable oils with solvated acetic acid using cation‐exchange resins

Vegetable oil epoxides (oxiranes) are customarily manufactured using acetic acid (AA) as oxygen carrier and reactant source, in aqueous/organic media. Further attack of the oxirane ring by AA proceeds in this acid‐catalyzed process, lowering yield. We report a study of the degradation of the ring by water‐solvated AA, using Amberlite IR‐120 as heterogeneous catalyst. The ring opening with solvated AA was found to be first order with respect to the concentration of epoxide groups and second order with respect to the carboxylic acid, with an activation energy of 58.7 ± 0.42 kJ mol^?1. This value is within the range found in liquid‐liquid systems (51.3–66.3 kJ mol^?1). Yet, using IR‐120, the degradation increases identically either by adding more mass of catalyst or by reducing its particle diameter while keeping the total mass constant, as both situations lead to higher external (exposed) area of the acidic catalyst (i.e., free protons associated to the sulfonic group) on the outer surface of the ion exchange resin beads. These free protons, in turn, become available to catalyze the attack on the oxirane groups of the long‐chain fatty acids, which cannot enter (diffuse) into the gel phase of the resin. Despite the unavoidable presence of surface‐exposed protons, the degradation can be reduced by several orders of magnitude – for similar process conditions – by using this type of heterogeneous catalysts instead of mineral acids.
