Synthetic versus biological networksThe Wiley Polymer Networks Group Review Series Volume 2 Synthetic versus Biological Networks Edited by B. T. Stokke and A. Elgsaeter The Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway This, the second volume in the series, presents articles from the 14th Polymer Networks Group conference which took place in Norway in July 1998 The focus of the conference was 'Synthetic versus Biological Networks' with papers highlighting the different ideas emerging from investigations into synthetic polymer networks as opposed to, and in comparison with, polymer networks of biological origins. The papers published in this volume have been divided into six sections: Network Formation Network Characterization Polymer Networks and Precursor Architectures Biopolymer Networks and Gels Biomedical Applications of Polymer Networks Polymer Networks in Restricted Geometries |

0 SO Temperature (*C) 150 Figure 22.4 Comparison between the tan 8- T curve
of a segmented network (curve I) and of a blend (curve II) of polyDXL and
polyMMA (50/50 w/w) (redrawn from ref. [18]) the intrinsic reactivity of the
polymerizable endgroup alone. Several parameters such as molecular weight,
solvent quality and steric character of the substituents on the double bond of the
endgroup should be considered [27,28]. The influence of the choice of the vinyl
polymer on the ...

The last example is a xanthan sample [38]: the extinction angles for five
concentrations versus normalized shear rate yr are plotted in Figure 25.14(a) and
the flow curves in Figure 25.14(b). Xanthan gum displays an extensive shear
thinning due to large orientation of the semirigid rods, the viscosity being close to
the viscosity of water for high shear rates. Nonetheless the extinction angles level
off around 20°. The flow curves cannot be superposed using the normalized
shear rate, ...

and N l, these curves were obtained from the following equation [14]. (30.7) In the
region below the inversion curves, the spatial inhomogeneity, i.e., I(q), increases
with increasing CD (decreasing N), resulting in behavior such as that in Figure
30.4 (a). In the narrow regions between the inversion curves and the phase
separation curves, spatial inhomogeneity decreases with increasing CD,
corresponding to behavior, such as that in Figure 30.4 (b). Here, the inversion
curve (solid ...
