This property enables photoinduced healing and processing of azopolymers with high spatiotemporal resolution. However, a general lack of knowledge about the influence of the polymer structure on photoinduced reversible solid-to-liquid transitions hinders the design of such novel polymers. Herein, the synthesis and photoresponsive behavior of new azopolymers with different lengths of spacers between the polymer backbone and the azobenzene group on the side chain are reported. Azopolymers with no and 20 methylene spacers did not show photoinduced solid-to-liquid transitions. Azopolymers with 6 or 12 methylene spacers showed photoinduced solid-to-liquid transitions. This study demonstrates that spacers are essential for azopolymers with photoinduced reversible solid-to-liquid transitions, and thus, gives an insight into how to design azopolymers for photoinduced healing and processing.}, language = {en} } @article{MuellerFoerstendorfSteudtneretal.2019, author = {M{\"u}ller, Katharina and Foerstendorf, Harald and Steudtner, Robin and Tsushima, Satoru and Kumke, Michael Uwe and Lef{\`e}vre, Gr{\´e}gory and Rothe, J{\"o}rg and Mason, Harris and Szab{\´o}, Zolt{\´a}n and Yang, Ping and Adam, Christian K.

U(VI) acetate. selected to be independently investigated by various spectroscopic (vibrational, luminescence, X-ray absorption, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy) and quantum chemical methods was achieved by an international round-robin test (RRT). Twenty laboratories from six different countries with a focus on actinide or geochemical research participated and contributed to this scientific endeavor. The outcomes of this RRT were considered on two levels of complexity: first, within each technical discipline, conformities as well as discrepancies of the results and their sources were evaluated. The raw data from the different experimental approaches were found to be generally consistent. In particular, for complex setups such as accelerator-based X-ray absorption spectroscopy, the agreement between the raw data was high. By contrast, luminescence spectroscopic data turned out to be strongly related to the chosen acquisition parameters. Second, the potentials and limitations of coupling various spectroscopic and theoretical approaches for the comprehensive study of actinide molecular complexes were assessed. Previous spectroscopic data from the literature were revised and the benchmark data on the U(VI) acetate system provided an unambiguous molecular interpretation based on the correlation of spectroscopic and theoretical results. The multimethodologic approach and the conclusions drawn address not only important aspects of actinide spectroscopy but particularly general aspects of modern molecular analytical chemistry.}, language = {en} } @misc{RajuLiebigHessetal.2019, author = {Raju, Rajarshi Roy and Liebig, Ferenc and Hess, Andreas and Schlaad, Helmut and Koetz, Joachim}, title = {Temperature-triggered reversible breakdown of polymer-stabilized olive}, series = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, journal = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, number = {751}, issn = {1866-8372}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-43646}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-436461}, pages = {19271 -- 19277}, year = {2019}, abstract = {A one-step moderate energy vibrational emulsification method was successfully employed to produce thermo-responsive olive/silicone-based Janus emulsions stabilized by poly(N,N-diethylacrylamide) carrying 0.7 mol\% oleoyl side chains.

Im ersten Teil der Arbeit wird die Aminolyse von RAFT-Polymeren und die Abh{\"a}ngigkeit der Polymer-Polymer Disulfidbildung von der Molmasse untersucht. Dabei wurde durch die Aufnahme von Reaktionskinetiken mittels Gel-Permeations-Chromatographie (GPC) festgestellt, dass je l{\"a}nger die Polymerketten sind, desto weniger Disulfid Polymerkopplung tritt auf. RAFT-Polymere werden oft genutzt, um die RAFT-Polymer Endgruppe nach der Polymerisation zu modifizieren oder in einer chemischen Reaktion zu funktionalisieren. Hier kann die Aminolyse in Anwesenheit von kurzkettigen Disulfiden, wie zum Beispiel Cystin, durchgef{\"u}hrt werden, um die Bildung von Polymer-Polymer Disulfiden vollst{\"a}ndig zu unterdr{\"u}cken und ein endgruppenfunktionalisiertes Polymer zu erhalten. Bei dieser Reaktion greift das bei der Aminolyse entstehende Polymerthiolat die kurzkettigen Disulfide an, und es kommt zur Bildung von funktionalisierten Polymeren. Es wurde ein Polyethylenglykoldisulfid eingesetzt, um ein amphiphiles Blockcopolymer zu erhalten. Als RAFT-Polymer wurde Polystyrol (PS) verwendet, und es konnte die Bildung von Polystyrol-Polyethylenglykol Copolymeren nachgewiesen werden.

Im zweiten Teil der Arbeit liegt der Fokus auf der Synthese von Polydisulfiden und ihren thermischen Eigenschaften. Es wurden verschiedene Alkyldithiole synthetisiert und mittels Wasserstoffperoxid und Triethylamin polymerisiert.
