Trimethylolpropane triglycidyl ether (TMPTGE) is an organic chemical in the glycidyl ether family. [2] [3] It has the formula C 15 H 26 O 6 and the IUPAC name is 2-[2,2-bis(oxiran-2-ylmethoxymethyl)butoxymethyl]oxirane, and the CAS number 3454-29-3.
Artificial polymer: Man-made polymer that is not a biopolymer. Note 1: Artificial polymer should also be used in the case of chemically modified biopolymers. Note 2: Biochemists are now capable of synthesizing copies of biopolymers that should be named Synthetic biopolymer to make a distinction with true biopolymers.
The Flory–Fox equation relates the number-average molecular weight, M n, to the glass transition temperature, T g, as shown below: =, where T g,∞ is the maximum glass transition temperature that can be achieved at a theoretical infinite molecular weight and K is an empirical parameter that is related to the free volume present in the polymer sample.
Studies undergone using polyglycolide-made sutures have shown that the material loses half of its strength after two weeks and 100% after four weeks. The polymer is completely resorbed by the organism in a time frame of four to six months. [2] Degradation is faster in vivo than in vitro, this phenomenon thought to be due to cellular enzymatic ...
The polymer is also a starting material for thermoplastic polyurethane, thermoplastic polyesters, polyetheramide and cast polyurethane elastomers, used for instance in the wheels of roller skates and skateboards.
AMPS is made by the Ritter reaction of acrylonitrile and isobutylene in the presence of sulfuric acid and water. [2] The recent patent literature [3] describes batch and continuous processes that produce AMPS in high purity (to 99.7%) and improved yield (up to 89%, based on isobutene) with the addition of liquid isobutene to an acrylonitrile / sulfuric acid / phosphoric acid mixture at 40°C.
PTMC is a predominantly amorphous polymer in the relaxed state but it can present some crystallinity, particularly when the chains are stretched. [ 4 ] The polymer presents glass transition temperature ( T g {\displaystyle T_{g}} ) between -15 and -30 °C and melting temperature ( T m {\displaystyle T_{m}} ) ranging from 38 to 41°C.
PEKK has a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 162 °C. [2] HDD part made from Polyetherketoneketone. Applications ... Toggle the table of contents ...
