Abstract
Thermal stability of syndiotactic polypropene (synβPP) was investigated by comparison with isotactic polypropene (isoβPP). Heat treatments were carried out in air at 160β220Β°C for 10β30 min. Under these conditions, molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of synβPP were almost kept constant, indicating the high stability of synβPP. IsoβPP was degraded drastically under the same conditions. Thus, it is confirmed that the stereoregularity is one of the dominant factors to determine the stability of PP.

Peroxynitrates are thermally unstable intermediates (at ambient temperatures) in the atmospheric degradation of hydrocarbons. In this work, thermal lifetimes of nine peroxynitrates have been measured as a function of temperature and, for two of them, also, as a function of total pressure. In the pre
Worldwide vaccination programs against infectious diseases and toxins are estimated to save approximately 3 million lives yearly. Tragically, however, another 3 million individuals (primarily children) die of vaccine-preventable diseases. A significant portion of this problem results from the therma
