Equations to perform isothermal predictions and nonisothermal simulations at a different temperature program are presented, based on the isoconversional methods of Vyazovkin and Friedman. Isoconversional kinetic parameters were used to simulate the reaction progress under different isothermal and nonisothermal conditions. It was shown that accurate simulations can be performed in a model-free way, i.e. without knowledge of the reaction mechanism. A higher accuracy was obtained for mechanism involving more separated individual steps. The methods proposed are applicable to both DSC and TG data.

The non-isothermal characterization of this bitumen was carried out from 30 to 900°C with heating rates of 1, 2, 5, 10 and 25°C/min, in nitrogen and air atmospheres. TG and DTA results showed that under nitrogen atmosphere, pure bitumen shows a single thermal event, which is attributed to its pyrolysis. While under air, it undergoes two exothermic low temperature oxidation stages, one endothermic fuel deposition stage, and one exothermic high temperature oxidation. Kinetic parameters were determined using Kissinger, Friedman and advanced non-linear (NLN) methods to assess activation energy for each event, from the non-isothermal experimental data. Good agreement between kinetic modeling was found for bitumen under nitrogen and air.

This work presents a thorough study concerning the crosslinking kinetics of humins by chemorheological analysis and model-free kinetics under isothermal and non-isothermal curing. Humins can auto-crosslink under the effect of temperature, and the reaction can be fastener when adding an acidic initiator. Thus, the effect of P-Toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (pTSA) on the crosslinking kinetics was also studied. The dependencies of the effective activation energy (Eα-dependencies) were determined by an advanced isoconversional method and correlated with the variation of complex viscosity during curing. It is shown that humins curing involves multi-step complex reactions and that the use of an acidic initiator allows faster crosslinking at lower temperatures, involving lower Eα. The shift from chemical to diffusion control was also estimated.
In Vitro Cationic Lipid-Mediated Gene Delivery with Fluorinated Glycerophosphoethanolamine Helper Lipids
Bioconjugate Chemistry, Oct 27, 2001

"Fluorinated" lipoplexes are such candidates, as supported by the remarkably higher in vitro and in vivo transfection potency found for such fluorinated lipoplexes as compared with conventional ones or even with PEI-based polyplexes (Boussif, O., Gaucheron, J., Boulanger, C., Santaella, C., Kolbe, H. V. J., Vierling, P. (2001) Enhanced in vitro and in vivo cationic lipid-mediated gene delivery with a fluorinated glycerophosphoethanolamine helper lipid. J. Gene Med. 3, 109-114). Here, we describe the synthesis of fluorinated glycerophosphoethanolamines (F-PEs), close analogues of dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE), and report on their lipid helper properties vs that of DOPE, as in vitro gene transfer components of fluorinated lipoplexes based on pcTG90, DOGS (Transfectam), or DOTAP. To evaluate the contribution of the F-PEs to in vitro lipoplex-mediated gene transfer, we examined the effect of including the F-PEs in lipoplexes formulated with these cationic lipids (CL) for various CL:DOPE:F-PE molar ratios [1:(1 - x):x with x = 0, 0.5 and 1; 1:(2 - y):y with y = 0, 1, 1.5, and 2], and various N/P ratios (from 10 to 0.8, N = number of CL amines, P = number of DNA phosphates). Irrespective of the F-PE chemical structure, of the colipid F-PE:DOPE composition, and of the N/P ratio, comparable transfection levels to those of their respective control DOPE lipoplexes were most frequently obtained when using one of the F-PEs as colipid of DOGS, pcTG90, or DOTAP in place of part of or of all DOPE. However, a large proportion of DOGS-based lipoplexes were found to display a higher transfection efficiency when formulated with the F-PEs rather than with DOPE alone while the opposite tendency was evidenced for the DOTAP-based lipoplexes. The present work indicates that "fluorinated" lipoplexes formulated with fluorinated helper lipids and conventional cationic lipids are very attractive candidates for gene delivery. It confirms further that lipophobicity and restricted miscibility of the lipoplex lipids with the endogenous lipids does not preclude efficient gene transfer and expression. Their transfection potency is rather attributable to their unique lipophobic and hydrophobic character (resulting from the formulation of DNA with fluorinated lipids), thus preventing to some extent DNA from interactions with lipophilic and hydrophilic biocompounds, and from degradation.

Isothermal Crystallization Kinetics of Poly (Ethylene 2,5-Furandicarboxylate)

This paper presents an estimation of the crystallization enthalpy, the crystalline and amorphous density and the crystallization kinetics of PEF. Using Avrami and the Hoffman-Lauritzen theory, Hoffman-Lauritzen parameters are proposed that relate crystal growth rate of catalyst-free PEF to temperature and molecular weight. Characteristic is a higher activation energy for chain diffusion (U*) for PEF compared PET, which can be attributed to more restricted chain conformational changes. Finally, the crystallization rate of PEF is shown to be significantly affected by catalyst type.
Investigation on the role of the alkyl side chain of cardanol on benzoxazine polymerization kinetics and polymer properties

Its impact on the polymerization kinetic of benzoxazine as well as on the thermal stability has been hereby investigated. To this aim, three di-functional benzoxazine monomers (BZ) are synthesized by bridging with ethylene diamine either two phenols (di-phenol), one phenol and one cardanol (asymmetric card-phenol), or two cardanol moieties (di-cardanol). FT-IR measurements show that the presence of the cardanol aliphatic chain modifies the formation of hydrogen bonding network. These differences are highlighted in the chemorheology of polymerization, where the di-phenol BZ monomer shows an early vitrification explained by the formation of a high degree of H-bonding interactions during curing. An important feature of benzoxazines reactions, highlighted in this study, is that vitrification does not stop the polymerization process. Cardanol long alkyl side chain can cause a plasticizing effect and induces a lower degree of polymerization. This is observed through the decrease of the glass transition temperature (Tg) and the apparition of a β relaxation for cardanol-based polymers. Interestingly, the thermal stability is significantly improved for cardanol-based polyBZ, which can be the result of H-bonds reorganization in the system due to the cardanol aliphatic chains.

The good modelling of the Achar-Brindley-Sharp method, which does not require long calculation times, led to its selection from other differential methods. The Freeman-Carroll and Ellerstein methods are not appropriate for modelling the transition.
