Polymers in Electronics 2007 Conference, an international event planned by Rapra Technology, will be held January 30-31 in Munich, Germany.
Also used as compatibilizers in various
polymer alloys including polyolefins.
The room-temperature spinning process works because the
polymer chains get knotted up during spinning.
We report results from a series of laboratory experiments in which we impregnated unbeaten bleached kraft pulp handsheets with dextran solution as a model strength-enhancing
polymer. Two major conclusions resulted.
"The
polymers are unique to Kraton," says Rolf Schrauwen, European sales manager for Kraton
Polymers.
The new method is based on mass spectrometry, a long-standing technique for characterizing low mass substances, but one that is difficult to use on high mass
polymers owing to the requirement of producing intact charged molecules in the vapor state.

During a fire, plastic melts as the
polymer chains within it break down.
Scientists from NIST have utilized in situ visualization technology to discover novel structures formed during processing of
polymer blends.
Gibbs, Ralph Milko vich and Masao Ohta, is said to have played a unique role in the evolution of what would become a world-renowned institution for
polymer education and research.
To leverage the cell-growing effects of polypyrrole, Schmidt and her colleagues at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) considered decorating the
polymer with a biochemical that would cause cells to stick and then grow in one direction.
Calibrations of SEC are carried out with a series of narrow fraction molecular mass standards covering the mass distribution range of the
polymer of interest.
