The aim of the work is to gain a deeper understanding of the solvent influence on k(p) and to develop a general correlation between solvent-induced variations in k(p) and solvent properties. Applying a linear solvation energy relationship (LSER), which correlates k(p) to solvent solvatochromic parameters, suggests that dipolarity/polarizability determines the solvent influence on k(p). To compare the solvent influence on BzMA k(p) with data for methyl methacrylate, hydroxypropyl methacrylate, and 2-ethoxyethyl methacrylate normalized k(p) data were treated by a single LSER, providing a universal treatment of the solvent influence on the propagation kinetics of the four monomers. Further, the predictive capabilities of this universal correlation were tested with additional monomers from the methacrylate family.}, language = {en} } @misc{JeličićFriedrichJeremićetal.2009, author = {Jeličić, Aleksandra and Friedrich, Alwin and Jeremić, Katarina and Siekmeyer, Gerd and Taubert, Andreas}, title = {Polymer hydrogel/polybutadiene/iron oxide nanoparticle hybrid actuators for the characterization of NiTi implants}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-48589}, year = {2009}, abstract = {One of the main issues with the use of nickel titanium alloy (NiTi) implants in cardiovascular implants (stents) is that these devices must be of very high quality in order to avoid subsequent operations due to failing stents. For small stents with diameters below ca. 2 mm, however, stent characterization is not straightforward. One of the main problems is that there are virtually no methods to characterize the interior of the NiTi tubes used for fabrication of these tiny stents. The current paper reports on a robust hybrid actuator for the characterization of NiTi tubes prior to stent fabrication. The method is based on a polymer/hydrogel/magnetic nanoparticle hybrid material and allows for the determination of the inner diameter at virtually all places in the raw NiTi tubes. Knowledge of the inner structure of the raw NiTi tubes is crucial to avoid regions that are not hollow or regions that are likely to fail due to defects inside the raw tube. The actuator enables close contact of a magnetic polymer film with the inner NiTi tube surface. The magnetic signal can be detected from outside and be used for a direct mapping of the tube interior. As a result, it is possible to detect critical regions prior to expensive and slow stent fabrication processes.}, language = {en} } @article{XieJelicicWangetal.2010, author = {Xie, Zai-Lai and Jelicic, Aleksandra and Wang, Feipeng and Rabu, Pierre and Friedrich, Alwin and Beuermann, Sabine and Taubert, Andreas}, title = {Transparent, flexible, and paramagnetic ionogels based on PMMA and the iron-based ionic liquid 1-butyl-3- methylimidazolium tetrachloroferrate(III) [Bmim][FeCl4]}, issn = {0959-9428}, doi = {10.1039/C0jm01733g}, year = {2010}, abstract = {The iron-containing ionic liquid (IL) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrachloroferrate(III) [Bmim][FeCl4] has been used as a building block in the synthesis of transparent, ion-conducting, and paramagnetic ionogels. UV/Vis spectroscopy shows that the coordination around the Fe(III) ion does slightly change upon incorporation of the IL into PMMA. The thermal stability of the PMMA increases significantly with IL incorporation. In particular, the onset weight loss observed at ca. 265 degrees C for pure PMMA is completely suppressed. The ionic conductivity shows a strong temperature dependence and increases with increasing IL weight fractions. The magnetic properties are similar to those reported for the pure IL and are not affected by the incorporation into the PMMA matrix. The resulting ionogel is thus an interesting prototype for soft, flexible, and transparent materials combining the mechanical properties of the matrix with the functionality of the metal-containing IL, such as magnetism.}, language = {en} }
