The contact planes of the two kinds of crystals are(010)of iPP and(100) of PCL,respectively.展开更多

In these blends, a miscibility limit specified by ET content in the TCL was found to be about 70 (wt%). In the blends of TCL/TCL with different ET contents, a miscibility window defined by ET content was also found to range from 82 to 58 (wt%). Based on the experimental miscibility limits and the mean field binary interaction model, the interaction parameter between monomeric units of ET and CL was obtained.展开更多

The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis and IR, and [(MeC 5H 4) 2Sm(μ OCH 2CH 2NMe 2)] 2 was structurally characterized by the X ray diffraction to be a dimer formed by two unsymmetric oxygen bridges. The complex has a tricyclic skeleton with the additional two Sm-N bonds via intramolecular coordination of OCH 2CH 2NMe 2. The coordination number of the central metal Sm is nine. The title complexes show good catalytic activity for ring opening polymerization of ε caprolactone.展开更多

Electrospun small diameter tubes with tailored mechanical properties were fabricated through blending poly( L-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone)( PLCL) and silk fibroin( SF)with the mass ratios of 30 /70,50 /50,and 70 /30 in this study.Scanning electron microscopy( SEM) and mechanical testing were used to characterize morphological and mechanical properties of the tubes. Results showed that tensile strength of the tubes was higher than most of the native blood vessels,and elongations at break of them were improved greatly by blending PLCL. Compliances of the tubes were all higher than 1% /13. 33 kPa( 1% /100 mmHg).Particularly,tubes with blending mass ratio of 50 /50 showed similar compliance with human native femoral arteries,which provided a promising biomaterial that could be applied on small diameter vascular applications.展开更多

The inclusion complexes (ICs) formed between the PCL polymers and α-CD were characterized by ^1H-NMR, DSC, TGA, WAXD, and FT-1R, respectively. Both branch ann number and molecular weight of the PCL polymers have apparent effect on the stoichiometry (CL:CD, mol:mol) of these ICs. All these analytical results indicate that the branch arms of the PCL polymers are incorporated into the hydrophobic α-CD cavities and their original crystalline properties are completely suppressed. Moreover, the inclusion complexation between two-ann linear or four-ann star-shaped PCL polymers and α-CD not only enhances the thermal stability of the guest PCL polymers but also improves that of α-CD.展开更多

Single-component La(OTBP)3 can effectively prepare polycaprolactone (PCL) with over 90% yield and viscosity average molecular weight about 60 x 10 under quite mild conditions: molar ratio of CL to initiator is 1000, 60 C, 2 h in toluene. Mechanism study indicates that the monomer inserts into the growing chain via the break of acyl-oxygen bond of CL.展开更多

The influences of different rare earth elements, monomer and catalyst concentration as well as reaction time on the polymerization were investigated. Mechanism studies showed that monomer inserts into the active site with the acyl-oxygen bond scission rather than the break of alkyl-oxygen bond.展开更多
