Radiation induced solid-state polymerization of acetylenedicarboxylic acid was carried out at room temperature in open atmosphere and under vacuum conditions. The gray colored powder polymer obtained was insoluble in most common solvents but only partially soluble in DMSO and THF. The limiting conversion to polymer was about 5%. The polymer was characterized by IR, UV, DP-MS, DSC, TGA, and XRD. The mechanism of polymerization was elucidated from the available data. Polymerization followed a free radical mechanism. However, before the addition of monomer molecules to the growing chain, at least one of the carboxylic groups of the monomer breaks away as CO or CO2. The formation of side group cyclization takes place. At least one of the bonds in the side cyclic group is an etheric bond. The DSC, TGA, and XRD results showed that the polymer was partially crystalline and showed no melting up to 1200degreesC. The mechanism of polymerization and assigned chain structure was studied by the direct pyrolysis mass spectrometric method.

Thermal stimulation of aqueous volumes contained in carbon nanotubes: Experiment and modeling Yarin, AL; Güvenç Yazıcıoğlu, Almıla; Megaridis, CM (2005-01-01) The dynamic response, as caused by thermal stimulation, of aqueous liquid attoliter volumes contained inside multiwall carbon nanotubes is investigated theoretically and experimentally. The experiments indicate an energetically driven mechanism responsible for the dynamic multiphase fluid behavior visualized under high resolution in the transmission electron microscope. The theoretical model is formulated using a continuum approach, which combines temperature-dependent diffusion with intermolecular interact...
Radiation induced chain addition of allylbenzene to 1,4-dioxane Nesterov, SV; Kucukyavuz, S; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 1999-06-01) Radiation induced chain addition of allylbenzene to 1,4-dioxane has been studied by IR-, UV-, mass-, NMR- and ESR-spectrometry. Efficiency of the addition depends on the concentration of monomer and it has an optimum at C-monom<0.125M. Apparently, upper concentration limit of the reaction is caused by absorbed energy transfer on the molecule of monomer followed by energy deactivation. Radiation-chemical yields of the product are 12 and 31 molec./100 eV for 0.125M and 0.07M solution, respectively. The value ...
Thermal analysis of electroinitiated and radiation induced poly(epoxycyclopentanes) and poly(epoxycyclohexanes) by mass spectrometry Hacaloğlu, Jale; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar (1995-01-01) Thermal behaviour of electroinitiated and radiation induced poly(epoxycyclopentanes), PECP, and poly(epoxycyclohexanes), PECH, have been studied by a direct pyrolysis mass spectrometry technique. The mechanism of thermal degradation of the samples prepared by electroinitiation was found to be a radical depolymerization mechanism yielding mainly monomer. The broader temperature ranges of thermal decomposition in the case of polymer samples prepared by irradiation may be attributed to more complicated degrada...
POLYMERIZATION OF 4-VINYL-1-CYCLOHEXENE BY RADIATION AND CHEMICAL CATALYSTS CEVIK, NN; Usanmaz, Ali (Informa UK Limited, 1993-01-01) 4-Vinyl-1-cyclohexene was polymerized by radiation at room temperature under vacuum and in atmospheric air. The change of percent conversion with irradiation time is almost linear up to limiting conversion, but it is S-type in atmospheric air. It was shown that the mechanism of polymerization is most probably ionic rather than free-radical. The cationic polymerization was carried out in dichloromethane solution at -8-degrees-C using BF3(C2H5)2O as catalyst. The nature of the polymer obtained was investigate...
Spectroscopic ellipsometry characterization of PbWO4 single crystals Delice, S.; Isik, M.; Hasanlı, Nızamı; Darvishov, N.H.; Bagiev, V.E. (2022-09-01) © 2022 Elsevier B.V.Optical characterization of PbWO4 single crystals grown by Czochralski method was achieved in virtue of spectroscopic ellipsometry experiments carried out in the energy region of 1.0–5.6 eV at room temperature. Tetragonal scheelite structure with lattice parameters of a = b = 5.4619 Å and c = 12.0490 Å was determined for the bulk crystal utilizing from XRD analysis. Analyses of the ellipsometry data presented the photon energy dependencies of complex dielectric function of the crystal. T...
