  • Exploring the Influence of Entropy on Dynamic Macromolecular Ligation
    Exploring the Influence of Entropy on Dynamic Macromolecular Ligation Zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades eines DOKTORS DER NATURWISSENSCHAFTEN (Dr. rer. nat.) der KIT-Fakultät für Chemie und Biowissenschaften des Karlsruher Instituts für Technologie (KIT) genehmigte DISSERTATION von Dipl.-Chem. Kai Pahnke aus Nagold, Deutschland KIT-Dekan: Prof. Dr. Willem M. Klopper Referent: Prof. Dr. Christopher Barner-Kowollik Korreferent: Prof. Dr. Manfred Wilhelm Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 22.07.2016 Die vorliegende Arbeite wurde im Zeitraum von Februar 2013 bis Juni 2016 im Rahmen einer Kollaboration zwischen dem KIT und der Evonik Industries AG unter der Betreuung von Prof. Dr. Christopher Barner-Kowollik durchgeführt Only entropy comes easy. Anton Chekhov ABSTRACT The present thesis reports a novel, expedient linker species as well as previously unforeseen effects of physical molecular parameters on reaction entropy and thus equilibria with extensive implications on diverse fields of research via the study of dynamic ligation chemistries, especially in the realm of macromolecular chemistry. A set of experiments investigating the influence of different physical molecular parameters on reaction or association equilibria is designed. Initially, previous findings of a mass dependant effect on the reaction entropy – resulting in a more pronounced debonding of heavier or longer species – are reproduced and expanded to other dynamic ligation techniques as well as further characterization methods, now including a rapid and catalyst- free Diels–Alder reaction. The effects are evidenced via high temperature nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (HT NMR) as well as temperature dependent size exclusion chromatography (TD SEC) and verified via quantum chemical ab initio calculations. Next, the impact of chain mobility on entropic reaction parameters and thus the overall bonding behavior is explored via the thermoreversible ligation of chains of similar mass and length, comprising isomeric butyl side-chain substituents with differing steric demands.

  • Microstructure and Properties of Polytetrafluoroethylene Composites
    coatings Article Microstructure and Properties of Polytetrafluoroethylene Composites Modified by Carbon Materials and Aramid Fibers Fubao Zhang *, Jiaqiao Zhang , Yu Zhu, Xingxing Wang and Yuyang Jin School of Mechanical Engineering, Nantong University, Nantong 226019, China; [email protected] (J.Z.); [email protected] (Y.Z.); [email protected] (X.W.); [email protected] (Y.J.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-13646288919 Received: 12 October 2020; Accepted: 16 November 2020; Published: 18 November 2020 Abstract: Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is polymerized by tetrafluoroethylene, which has high corrosion resistance, self-lubrication and high temperature resistance. However, due to the large expansion coefficient, high temperature will gradually weaken the intermolecular bonding force of PTFE, which will lead to the enhancement of permeation absorption and the limitation of the application range of fluoroplastics. In order to improve the performance of PTFE, the modified polytetrafluoroethylene, filled by carbon materials and aramid fiber with different scales, is prepared through the compression and sintering. Moreover, the mechanical properties and wear resistance of the prepared composite materials are tested. In addition, the influence of different types of filler materials and contents on the properties of PTFE is studied. According to the experiment results, the addition of carbon fibers with different scales reduces the tensile and impact properties of the composite materials, but the elastic modulus and wear resistance are significantly improved. Among them, the wear rate of 7 µm carbon fiber modified PTFE has decreased by 70%, and the elastic modulus has increased by 70%. The addition of aramid fiber filler significantly reduces the tensile and impact properties of the composite, but its elastic modulus and wear resistance are significantly improved.

  • Ball and Butterfly Valve Seat/Seal Materials
    SEAT AND SEAL MATERIAL S BALL AND BUTTERFLY VAL V E SEAT /SEAL MATERIAL S SEAT MATERIALS AND APPLICATIONS Virgin PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) PTFE or TFE (Teflon®) is a fluorocarbon based polymer and typically is the most chemically- resistant of all plastics while retaining excellent thermal and electrical insulation properties. TFE also has a low coefficient of friction so is ideal for many low torque applications. This material is non-contaminating and accepted by the FDA for use in food services. Although TFE’s mechanical properties are low compared to other engineered plastics, its properties remain useful over a wide temperature range Temperature range: -100°F to +450°F. Color: white Torque adder: 0% RTFE (Reinforced Polytetrafluoroethylene) RTFE (reinforced Teflon® ) is compounded with a percentage of fiber glass or filler material to provide additional strength, stability and resistance to abrasive wear, cold flow and permeation in molded seats. Reinforcement such as glass fiber permits application at higher pressures and temperatures than unfilled TFE. RTFE should not be used in applications that attack glass, such as hydrofluoric acid and hot/strong caustics. Temperature range: -320°F to 450°F. Color: off-white (“milky-white”) Torque adder: 0% TFM TFM is a modified “second generation” TFE polymer that maintains the chemical and heat resistance properties of first generation PTFE. It has a denser polymer structure than standard PTFE with better stress recovery. Temperature range: -100°F to 500°F Color: white Torque adder: approximately 10% Delrin® Delrin® is DuPont’s trademark for Polyoxy-methylene. Delrin is very rigid, does not undergo cold flow, and has an excellent combination of strength, hardness, stiffness, stability, abrasion resistance and low friction.

  • How to Choose the Best Drysuit?
    HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST DRYSUIT? 1. How to choose the best drysuit? If you care about comfort while diving, you want to dive longer and deeper, primarily derive from unlimited pleasure of being under water – bet on the drysuit. Drysuits have become increasingly popular among divers. Technical divers that often do wreck or technical diving, long and in colder waters know this perfectly well. Those who dive less often, they prefer the shorter diving in warmer waters are also increasingly inclined to opt for drysuits. Why? Because they give amazing comfort under water - we are dry, warm and comfortable. There are more benefits of their use. Drysuit insulates virtually 100% the diver’s body from the water. Thermal properties of the suit depend on the fabric which it is made of and warmer being used. It is used for all types of dives, especially in colder waters and during deep dives. It is also excellent in the course of diving, when an air temperature and water is very low, eg. Ice Diving. You could say that if we have a drysuit, diving season never ends. 2. 1. Benefits of drysuit ownership Comfort Drysuits give divers a great thermal comfort - both during long dives and after its completion. The diver is completely isolated from direct contact with water, so the body does not cool down so quickly. Protection and durability Drysuit provides not only comfort but also safety. Above all it is the first and most important protection against unfavorable underwater environment both in terms of thermics as in the mechanical influence.

    - 2 - No. 77 - 5/4/45 Is research essential for social progress? Is it fundamental or superficial research that is essential? What is the essential need of fundamental research? "Permit me a few comments on the first question: Is research essential for social progress? The question tempts me to a blunt remark: Is running essen­ tial when you are in a stampede? In other words, with research as a tool avail­ able to your competitors can you ignore its power? If you doubt the power of research look about you: Who here is dressed in homespun? Who here breakfasted exclusively on unprocessed foods raised and transported without benefit of meteorology, chemistry, physics and biology? Who got here on his own feet with­ out the aid of airplane, train, subway, taxicab, or elevator? Can you. or any one else, stop by fiat or pious resolve the advances of technology? Not without getting left so far behind as to make the words 'social progress' a cackling mockery. I suspect that there have been societies and states in the history of the world in which life and human relationships were to the healthy participants as agreeable or more agreeable than life in these modern times is to us. But I am quite sure you wouldn't trade your life for theirs: you like to get well from a ruptured appendix, diphtheria, or an acute mania or a rodent ulcer of the face--they couldn't and they didn't. In fact, it is precisely in the field of medical science that I would insist that progress is real.
