We report on the construction of purely hydrogen-bonded hybrid polymer multilayers, which are composed of polymer pairs with low- and high- pH stability, and show that the critical pH value of film deconstruction, fraction of components released, and the rate of film dissolution can be tuned in a wide pH range from 3 to 9.5 by varying film composition and architecture. The film building blocks were poly(N-vinylcaprolactam) (PVCL)/poly(L-aspartic acid) (PLAA) bilayers as pairs of hydrogen-bonded polymers with low pH stability (critical disintegration pH of similar to 3.3), and poly(N-vinylcaprolactam) (PVCL)/tannic acid (TA) bilayers as hydrogen-bonded polymers with a higher critical disintegration pH of similar to 9.5. Hybrid TA/PVCL/PLAA multilayers were prepared at low pH using a layer-by-layer technique. Film deposition and pH-induced deconstruction were followed by in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy in attenuated total reflection mode (ATR-FTIR) and phase-modulated ellipsometry. PVCL/TA and PVCL/PLAA pairs were deposited in either alternating or stacked manner. Films with various layer arrangements had drastically different pH dissolution profiles. In all cases, the presence of PVCL/TA layers shifted pH values for release of PLAA from the film to more basic values. In the films with stacked architecture [(PVCL/PLAA)(6) (PVCL/TA)(n)], the mode of film destruction was dependent on both the amount of consecutively deposited PVCL/PLAA pairs and the number of PVCL/TA layer pairs in the surface stack. For the films composed of six bilayers of PVCL/PLAA in the base stack, the critical pH for film disintegration and PLAA release varied with the thickness of the top (PVCL/TA),, stack in a range from pH 3.5 to 5 with n ranging from 0 to 12. In hybrid alternating films, [(PVCL/TA)(1) (PVCL/PLAA)(1)](n) (1:1), release of PLAA and TA was more interdependent. The proximity of PVCL/TA pairs has further delayed PLAA release up to near-neutral pH. In addition, PLAA chains diffusing through the film triggered disruption of PVCL/TA interactions resulting in release of similar to 15-20% of TA. These results demonstrate the effects of proximity and intermixing of hydrogen-bonded polymer pairs of greatly different pH stability on film decomposition modes. The possibility of releasing active molecules and/or polymers combined with the biocompatibility of film components makes such systems attractive candidates for future biomedical applications.

Synthetic Design of Polyester Electrolytes Guided by Hydrophobicity Calculations
Yıldırım, Erol; Peretic, Matthew J.; Pasquinelli, Melissa A.; Mathers, Robert T. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2016-10-25)
Partition coefficients (LogP) help to quantify hydrophobicity, which can be used to guide the design of polymer electrolytes with properties. Thus, this study combined synthetic experiments and modeling to produce polyester electrolytes that solubilize lithium salts. These polyester electrolytes were derived from natural sources and polymerized with different ratios of polyols (diglycerol, glycerol, and diethylene glycol) and citric acid in the presence of lithium salts (LiTf and LiTFSI). The Fisher esterif...
Soluble Alkyl Substituted Poly(3,4-Propylenedioxyselenophene)s: A New Platform For Optoelectronic Materials
Atak, Samed; Icli-Ozkut, Merve; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar; CİHANER, ATİLLA (Wiley, 2011-10-15)
Optical and electrochemical properties of regiosymmetric and soluble alkylenedioxyselenophene-based electrochromic polymers, namely poly(3,3-dibutyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-seleno pheno [3,4-b][1,4]dioxephine) (PProDOS-C(4)), poly(3,3-dihexyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-selenopheno[3,4-b][1,4]dioxephine) (PProDOS-C(6)), and poly(3,3-didecyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-selenopheno[3,4-b][1,4]dioxephine) (PProDOS-C(10)), are highlighted. It is noted that these unique polymers have low bandgaps (1.57-1.65 eV), and they are exceptionally stable ...
DIPOLE-MOMENTS OF ISOTACTIC AND ATACTIC POLY(PROPYLENE OXIDE) SAMPLES
KUCUKYAVUZ, Z; ALYURUK, K; AHMAD, AM (Elsevier BV, 1991-01-01)
Dipole moments of poly(propylene oxide) (PPO) samples with different tacticities were determined from dielectric constant and refractive index increment measurements, which were performed on dilute toluene and isooctane solutions. In contrast to previous reports, both refractive index increments and the dipole moment ratios showed a marked dependence on the tacticities of the samples. The dipole moment ratios of isotactic samples were greater than unity and decreased with increasing sequence concentration...
Comparison of Natural Halloysite With Synthetic Carbon Nanotubes in Poly(lactic acid) Based Composites
Erpek, Canan Esma Yeniova; ÖZKOÇ, GÜRALP; Yılmazer, Ülkü (Wiley, 2017-11-01)
The objective of this study is to compare the mechanical properties, structure and degradability of the nanocomposites prepared with tubular nanofillers, halloysite (HNT) and carbon nanotube (CNT) in poly(lactic acid) (PLA), and thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) toughened PLA (T-PLA) matrices. In the PLA matrix, CNT increased, whereas HNT decreased the tensile strength with increasing filler content. Also, the elongation at break and impact strength decreased with increasing CNT content, but these properties...
Thermal stability and decomposition mechanism of poly(p-acryloyloxybenzoic acid and poly(p-methacryloyloxybenzoic acid) and their graft copolymers with polypropylene, Part II
Cetin, S.; Tincer, T. (Wiley, 2008-04-05)
Thermal stability and decomposition mechanism of poly(p-acryloyloxybenzoic) acid (PABA), p-methacryloyloxybenzoic acid (PMBA), and their graft coproducts of PP were studied by differential scanning calorimetry, direct pyrolysis mass spectrometry, and TG/IR system, combined thermogravimetric analyzer, and FTIR spectrometer. The homopolymers and corresponding grafts were found to be stable in nitrogen atmosphere but started to decompose under atmospheric conditions when heated above 230 degrees C. PABA and PA...
