Abstract:
The present invention discloses a digital mechanical measurement last, which specifically comprises a last, a three-dimensional strain gauge load cell, a signal amplifier, a data acquisition card, data acquisition system software, and a data line. After a shoe upper surface is sleeved over the digital mechanical measurement last, forces applied on the last by the shoe upper surface are transferred to the three-dimensional strain gauge load cell through a front part of the last and a rear part of the last, so that the three-dimensional strain gauge load cell is strained, which causes a change in a resistance value of the three-dimensional strain gauge load cell, thereby generating a voltage change; the voltage change is processed by the signal amplifier; the data acquisition card transmits data to a PC in which the data acquisition system software is installed over the data line and through a USB interface; the data acquisition system software records, displays, performs computation on, and analyzes signals, which helps a model designer to check and analyze problems existing in shoe models and materials, so as to improve timeliness and accuracy of model modification, save manpower, material resources and research and development time, and make shoe products fitter and more comfortable.

Abstract:
This invention deals with an approach to control anionic polymerization. The anionic polymerization is conducted by adding a kind of initiator ligand compound, directly or in the form of solution into the monomer or initiator at the same or different time, or at different stages. The metal atoms in the ligand can form the association with the initiator cations, while the alkyloxy groups in the initiator ligand can restrict the entering channel of the addition of the monomers due to their relatively large volume or steric hindrance. Therefore, the initiator ligand compound can restrict the rate of anionic polymerization, restrain the side reaction, and make the anionic polymerization possible to be conducted at room or even higher temperature. The molar ratio of initiator ligand compound to initiator is from 0.01:1 to 20:1. Compared with present technologies, the method of this invention can control and adjust the homopolymerization and copolymerization rate, side reactions and the polymerization temperature, and make it possible to industrialize.
