Characterization of polymer-liquid crystal blends
Blends of semi-crystalline polymers (polyethylene adipate and two poly(ester-urethane) s) with liquid crystal cholesteryl palmitate with different compositions were prepared by solution casting. One of the poly(ester-urethane)s was based on 2,4-tolylene diisocyanate (TDI) and the other one on 4,4-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI). The miscibility and phase transition were investigated over the whole range of concentration by differential scanning calorimetry and polarizing optical microscopy

Some Terpenes and Related Derivatives Synthesized in Cold Plasma Systems
The synthesis of bicyclo-[2.2.1]-heptane and bicyclo-[7.2.0]-undec-4-ene derivatives under cold plasma conditions are reported. The reaction systems involve gaseous mixtures at an interface with ice surfaces. The reactions are sensitive to the feed mixture and the ice trapped compounds
