pH-sensitive amphiphilic networks are synthesized from urethane acrylate anionomer (UAA) precursor chains. The microstructures of these networks are very sensitive to the nature of and the amount of solvent used during crosslinking. Whereas dioxane forms relatively homogenous solution, water prefere

Crosslinked xerogels comprising N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (VP) and butyl acrylate (BA) with different weight fractions of BA ranging between 0.1 and 0.3 were prepared by g-ray initiation copolymerization using different concentrations of either hexa-or tetrafunctional crosslinking agents.

An analysis of the molecular transport of organic liquids into fluoroelastomer membranes containing varying amounts of carbon black has been undertaken by the sorption-desorption gravimetric method. The variation in carbon black loading and temperature showed a significant effect on their transport
We have studied the mechanical property and swelling behavior of semiinterpenetrating polymer networks (semi-IPNs) of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and polyurethane (PU) with reactive groups under different experimental conditions. Tensile strength and elongation of these semi-IPNs are strongly dependen
Because of their incompatibility and the different refractive indices of the homopolymer components, polyurethane/polystyrene interpenetrating polymer networks are turbid by nature. Different parameters likely to enhance their transparency are examined: the crosslink density of each network and the
