摘要:
The invention concerns a polymer material consisting of macromolecular chains bound by hydrogen bonds, wherein: the macromolecular chains consist of a polymer skeleton whereon is fixed by at least one covalent bond a modifying agent, the modifying agent comprising, assembled in a common molecule, one or more associative groups capable of being bound by hydrogen bonds and one or more reactive groups capable of forming covalent bonds with the polymer skeleton, at least one of the associative groups of the modifying agent is an imidazolidone heterocycle, the macromolecular chains bear on average, 1 to 10 imidazolidone groups per chain. The average number of imidazolidone groups to be introduced into the macromolecular chains depends both on the average mass of said chains and the final properties desired for the material.

The present invention relates to a method for synthesizing a supramolecular material comprising: 1—the reaction of at least one carboxylic diacid, or ester or chloride of such a diacid, with, on the one hand, at least one modifier compound bearing both reactive functional groups capable of reacting with the carboxylic acid, ester or acid chloride functional groups and associative groups capable of associating with one another by hydrogen bonds, in a molar ratio of the reactive functional groups to the carboxylic acid, ester or acid chloride functional groups of between 0.10 and 0.50, and, on the other hand, at least one polyamine, said reactions being carried out successively or simultaneously, and 2—the reaction of the polyamide obtained at the end of step 1 with urea. The present invention also relates to the resulting material, and also to the uses thereof.

The present invention comprises a treatment approach based on gene set-expression signatures that systematically connects a sample to a profile from a reference database to extrapolate the most effective therapeutic agent. Further disclosed are methods to optimize combination treatments.
摘要:
This invention provides a series of BPU analogues; their synthesis and evaluated biological activity. BPU sulfur analogues were found to possess up to 20 fold increased potency, when compared to compound 1, in various cancerous cell lines.
摘要:
Certain mixtures of two superabsorbent powders having very different capillary suctions exhibit a resulting capillary suction which approaches the higher value. The resulting mixtures simultaneously exhibit a high capillary suction and a high intrinsic absorption capacity.
摘要:
Shell/core distortion-resistant particulates of a partially crosslinked superabsorbent polymer, the gradient of partial crosslinking of which being to such extent that the shells are harder and less flexible than the cores thereof, have a capacity to absorb 0.9% saline water of at least 50 g/g and the modulus of which is at least 35,000 Pa; a bed of a saline water gel of the subject particulates has a saline water absorption of at least 20 g/g and a porosity of at least 500 g.
摘要:
A compound consisting of a linear saturated C8-C24 hydrocarbon-based chain bearing at each end a nitrogen-containing functional group, other than —NH2, is used for the storage of thermal energy.A process for the storage and optionally for the release of thermal energy comprises the contacting of a wall to be cooled with a first heat transfer fluid then of said first heat transfer fluid with a material comprising said compound and optionally the contacting of said material with a second heat transfer fluid then of said second heat transfer fluid with a wall to be heated.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for detecting mutations in the PALB2 gene in pancreatic cancer patients and in individuals having a family history of pancreatic cancer. Methods are also provided for diagnosing a predisposition to pancreatic cancer, for predicting a patient's response to pancreatic cancer therapies, and for treating pancreatic cancer, based on presence of a PALB2 mutation or abberant PALB2 gene expression in a patient.
摘要:
A process for characterizing a copolymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate (EVA) using a differential calorimetry analysis technique. This process is determining one or more values of characteristic(s) of a sample of EVA copolymer, one of which is a level of crosslinking of the sample. The process makes it possible to determine not only the degree of crosslinking, but also the vinyl acetate content and the molecular mass of an EVA sample, in a simple, rapid, easy and precise manner.
摘要:
A compound includes at least one group Q and at least one group A linked together by at least one “spacer” group Sp, in which: group Q includes a dipole containing at least one nitrogen atom, preferably a nitrile oxide, nitrone, or nitrile imine function; group A contains at least one nitrogen atom, and is preferably an imidazolidinyl, ureyl, bis-ureyl, ureido-pyrimidyl, and triazolyl group; and Sp is an atom or a group of atoms forming a link between Q and A, preferably, a linear, branched or cyclic hydrocarbon-based optionally substituted chain, and may contain one or more aromatic radicals and/or heteroatoms. The compound may react with an unsaturated polymer forming a covalent bond with the polymer. The compound is useful for providing good interaction between fillers and polymers by establishing labile, non-covalent bonds between the polymer chains and the filler, thereby limiting processing problems.
