2. 1. Synergistic interactions involving amphiphilic polymers in solution

   Author : Maria Karlberg; Fysikalisk kemi; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hydrophobic modification; cyclodextrin; rheology; emulsion stability; Fysikalisk kemi; Physical chemistry; cellulose derivative; degradable surfactants; amylose;

   Abstract : The properties of hydrophobically modified cellulose derivatives in aqueous mixtures with various other molecules have been investigated. Mixtures of a hydrophobically modified polymer and alkali-sensitive, degradable surfactants gave rise to time-dependent viscosities. READ MORE

4. 2. Hydrophobically Modified Polymers. Rheology and Molecular Associations

   Author : Leif Karlson; Fysikalisk kemi; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; polymer self diffusion; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi; rheology; hydrophobically modified polyethylene glycol; hydrophobically modified ethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose; cyclodextrin; hydrophobically modified polymer; associative thickener;

   Abstract : Structure- property relationships and thickening mechanism in aqueous solution of two hydrophobically modified polymers (HM-P) with different architecture have been investigated. The two polymers, hydrophobically modified ethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose (HM-EHEC) and hydrophobically modified polyethylene glycol (HM-PEG), are commonly used as associative thickeners in the paint industry.

   Abstract : Molecular imprinting is a technique by which polymeric materials selective for a given target molecule can be created through a casting procedure. Functionalised monomers are added to a solution of molecular templates. READ MORE

6. 4. Association Phenomena Involving Hydrophobically Modified Polymers. Electrostatic and Hydrophobic Contributions

   Author : Marina Tsianou; Fysikalisk kemi; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; scaling; light scattering; rheology; aqueous solution behavior; phase behavior; cyclodextrin; surfactant; polyacrylate; cellulose ether; polyelectrolyte; hydrophobically modified polymer; Polymer; water soluble polymer; viscosity; association; segregation; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

   Abstract : The electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions in aqueous solutions of hydrophobically-modified water-soluble non-ionic or ionic polymers, their mixtures with a second polymer, nonionic or of opposite charge, and their mixtures with surfactants of opposite charge have been investigated. The relative strength of the electrostatic and hydrophobic contributions has been modulated by a variation of the polymer charge density and the solution pH, and by a variation in the degree and strength of the hydrophobic modifications, respectively.

7. 5. On the Size and Shape of Polymers and Polymer Complexes : A Computational and Light Scattering Study

   Author : Tomas Edvinsson; Terence Cosgrove; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Monte Carlo simulations; grafted polymers; shape description; folding complexity; clustering; percolation algorithm; light scattering; end-capped polymers; inclusion complexes; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; Physical Chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

   Abstract : Detailed characterization of size and shape of polymers, and development of methods to elucidate the mechanisms behind shape transitions are central issues in this thesis. In particular we characterize grafted polymer chains under confinement in terms of the chain entanglement complexity and mean molecular size. READ MORE
