Chain length dependent termination in butyl acrylate free-radical polymerization studied via stationary and pulsed laser initiated RAFT polymerization
No full textThe chain-length dependence of the termination rate coefficient, k t, in butyl acrylate free-radical polymerization has been determined by two independent methods, RAFT-SP-PLP and RAFT-CLD-T, both employing control of radical chain length by reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. Within RAFT-SP-PLP, the polymerization induced by a laser single pulse is monitored via near-IR spectroscopy with a time resolution of microseconds. In RAFT-CLD-T, isothermal reaction rate measurements are carried out via DSC under stationary polymerization conditions. The resulting k t data refer to the situation of living/controlled radical polymerization, where both radical chain length and monomer conversion increase during the course of the reaction. The RAFT-SP-PLP measurements were carried out at 60°C and two pressures, 5 and 1000 bar. The RAFT-CLD-T experiments were run at ambient pressure and at two temperatures, 60 and 80°C, respectively. In absolute value, the termination rate coefficients for identical pressure and temperature deduced from the two methods differ by less than a factor of 2. For the dependence of kt on chain length, i, almost identical information is provided by the two techniques. The chain-length dependence of kt may be described by the power-law expression kt(i) = k t(1,1)i-α with, however, α being different for short-chain and long-chain radicals. RAFT-SP-PLP yields α1 = 1.25 for the short-chain regime from 1 < i < 30, and α2 = 0.22 for chain lengths above i = 50. RAFT-CLD-T results in α1 = 1.04 and α2 = 0.20 in identical chain length regimes. k t(1,1) values are found to be close to 1 × 109 L mol-1 s-1. © 2005 American Chemical Society

[Letter from Jeff Davis to T. N. Carswell - July 6, 1943]
No full textA letter written to Mr. T. N. Carswell, Abilene, Texas, from Jeff Davis, Pastor, First Baptist Church, Hallsville, Texas, dated July 6, 1943. Davis discusses his conference with Drs. McConnell and Atwood [F. M. McConnell, Julian Atwood] confiding that they were "very anxious" to get Carswell to "take up and carry on" and offers his support if Carswell joins them. Davis handwrites a postscript advising that "we have two Jeff Davises here" and requests that Carswell be sure to include the box number on the envelope
Translation and response between Maurice Blanchot and Lydia Davis
No full textWhen an author translates a text by another writer, this translation is one form of a response to that text. Other responses may appear in their own writings that are more inflected with their authorial persona. Lydia Davis translated six books by Maurice Blanchot, including fiction and theoretical writings. Blanchot’s concept of the récit privileges non-conventional forms of narrative and it can be considered to have influenced Davis, a view shared in critical writing about Davis. However, responses to his fiction can also be found in Davis’s work. This article reads Lydia Davis’s story “Story” as a response to Maurice Blanchot’s récit, La Folie du jour, translated by Davis as “The Madness of the Day”. Both texts develop a narrative that questions the possibility of arriving at a single story: Blanchot’s narrator cannot tell the story of how he came to have glass ground into his eyes, while Davis’s narrator must try to understand a contradictory story told to her by her lover. However, Davis responds to Blanchot by reversing the perspective in the story: where Blanchot’s narrator must and cannot create a story that explains his situation in a judicial/medical context, Davis’s narrator is struggling to understand her lover’s story which does not explain the situation that they find themselves in. Davis’s narrator is therefore motivated by an emotional need to find an acceptable story that is absent from Blanchot’s narrator. This difference in motivation is central to the difference between Davis’s and Blanchot’s approach, and complicates any reading of his influence on her because she responds to his text in her own
