Attstrae-The polarization curves of oxygen evolution and reduction at platinum electrode were obtained in diluted aqueous solutions of sulfuric and perchloric acids in the temperature range 2&325"C. The Tafel slopes of polarization curves of oxygen evolution are practically independent of the temper

β¦ Synopsis
Optical rotatory dispersion studies have been carried out at, temperatures up to 150Β°C. on poly(ybenzy1 Lgliitamate) in a-chloronaphthalene and N-methylcaprolactam, and on poly-6-carbobeiixoxy-L-lysine, poly-6-carbobenzoxy-Lo1 nithine, and poly(bg1utamic acid) in N-methylacetamide. The h3offittrYang -bo values were large in all cases, buts significant decreases in -bo were observed a t the upper temperature limits of the stiidy suggesting that a transition region was being entered. Polymer degradation generally precluded examination of the systems through the suggested transitlion region.

Poly(acry1ic acid) (PAA) was decarboxylated in aqueous solution as a function of pH and ionic strength in the temperature range 10O-35O0C. Degradation kinetics were first order with respect to acid functionality. The rate of decarboxylation at high pH (E, = 51.1 kcall mol) was much slower than that
