Synthesis,characterization, and thermal properties of phosphorus‐containing,wholly aromatic thermotropic copolyesters

A series of phosphorus‐containing, wholly aromatic thermotropic copolyesters from acetylated 2‐(6‐oxide‐6H‐dibenz〈c,e〉〈1,2〉oxa phosphorin‐6‐yl)‐1,4‐dihydroxy phenylene, p‐acetoxybenzoic acid, terephthalic acid, and isophthalic acid were prepared by melting polycondensation. The structure and basic properties of the polymers, such as the glass‐transition temperature (T_g), melting temperature (T_m), thermal stability, crystallinity, and liquid crystallinity, were investigated with Fourier transform infrared, elemental analysis, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis, wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction, and hot‐stage polarizing optical microscopy. The copolyesters had relatively high T_g values ranging from 183 to 192°C. The T_m values obtained from DSC curves for samples P‐20 and P‐25 were 290 and 287°C, respectively (where the number in the sample name indicates the molar fraction of the phosphorus‐containing monomer in the reactants). The initial flow temperatures of other samples observed with hot‐stage polarizing microscopy were 271–290°C. The 5% degradation temperatures in nitrogen ranged from 431 to 462°C, and the char yields at 640°C were 41–52%. All the copolyesters, except P‐40, were thermotropic and nematic. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 86: 1278–1284, 2002

Electrosyntheses and characterization of poly(5‐bromoindole) in boron trifluoride diethyl etherate

Poly(5‐bromoindole) (PBrI) films were synthesized electrochemically by direct oxidation of 5‐bromoindole in pure boron trifluoride diethyl etherate. The oxidation potential of 5‐bromoindole in this medium was measured to be only 0.97 V vs. saturated calomel electrode, which was lower than that determined in acetonitrile + 0.1 mol L^?1 Bu₄NBF₄ (1.08 V). PBrI films obtained from this medium showed good electrochemical behavior and good thermal stability. Structural studies showed that the polymerization of 5‐bromoindole ring occurred at 2,3 position. As‐formed PBrI films were thoroughly soluble in strong polar solvent dimethylsulfoxide and partly soluble in tetrahydrofuran. Fluorescent spectral studies indicated that PBrI was a good blue‐light emitter. The excitation and emission spectra of PBrI showed a significant shift to longer wavelength compared with that of the monomer, consistent with the greater extent of electron delocalization. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Determination of temporal information granules to improve forecasting in fuzzy time series

Partitioning the universe of discourse and determining intervals containing useful temporal information and coming with better interpretability are critical for forecasting in fuzzy time series. In the existing literature, researchers seldom consider the effect of time variable when they partition the universe of discourse. As a result, and there is a lack of interpretability of the resulting temporal intervals. In this paper, we take the temporal information into account to partition the universe of discourse into intervals with unequal length. As a result, the performance improves forecasting quality. First, time variable is involved in partitioning the universe through Gath–Geva clustering-based time series segmentation and obtain the prototypes of data, then determine suitable intervals according to the prototypes by means of information granules. An effective method of partitioning and determining intervals is proposed. We show that these intervals carry well-defined semantics. To verify the effectiveness of the approach, we apply the proposed method to forecast enrollment of students of Alabama University and the Taiwan Stock Exchange Capitalization Weighted Stock Index. The experimental results show that the partitioning with temporal information can greatly improve accuracy of forecasting. Furthermore, the proposed method is not sensitive to its parameters.     

基于并查集和边缘检测模板的非理想虹膜定位

非理想虹膜图像往往存在虹膜边缘模糊、灰度变化不均匀、位置偏移及光斑干扰等问题, 这些问题的存在会在一定程度上影响虹膜内、外边界定位的准确率. 针对这个问题, 本文提出采用并查集和边缘检测模板的方法来对非理想虹膜进行内、外边界定位. 内边界定位是首先采用并查集方法完成瞳孔区域粗定位, 然后采用Hough变换对瞳孔进行精确定位; 外边界定位是先利用一系列边缘检测模板大致确定外圆的位置, 然后再依据外边界附近圆环内边缘点的密度来最终完成外边界的精确定位. 实验结果表明, 对于非理想虹膜图像, 本文方法的定位正确率和定位速度均高于其他同类方法.     

Dynamic mechanical and tensile properties of poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone)-poly(ethylene glycol) blends

Mechanical properties of miscible blends of high molecular weight poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) with a short-chain, liquid poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) of molecular weight 400 g/mol have been examined as a function of PVP-PEG composition and degree of hydration. The small-strain behavior in the linear elastic region has been evaluated with the dynamic mechanical analysis and compared with the viscoelastic behavior of PVP-PEG blends under large strains in the course of uniaxial drawing to fracture and under cyclic extension. A strong decoupling between the small-strain and the large strain properties of the blends has been observed, indicative of a pronounced deviation from rubber elasticity in the behavior of the blends. This deviation, also seen on tensile tests under fast drawing, is attributed to the peculiar phase behavior of the blends and the molecular mechanism of PVP-PEG interaction. Nevertheless, for the PVP blend with 36% PEG, under comparatively low extension rates, the reversible contribution to the total work of deformation up to ε=300% has been found to be maximum at around 70%, while the blends containing 31 and 41% PEG behave rather as an elastic-plastic solid and a viscoelastic liquid, respectively.
