Polyethylene glycol, one of the chemical components in Polyether block amide serves what purpose?
Polyether block amide Polyether block amide or PEBA is a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE). It is known under the tradename of VESTAMID® E (Evonik Industries), and PEBAX (Arkema). It is a block copolymer obtained by polycondensation of a carboxylic acid polyamide (PA6, PA11, PA12) with an alcohol termination polyether (Polytetramethylene glycol PTMG), PEG). The general chemical structure is:
Coronene Coronene (also known as superbenzene) is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) comprising six peri-fused benzene rings. Its chemical formula is C24H12 . It is a yellow material that dissolves in common solvents including benzene, toluene, and dichloromethane. Its solutions emit blue light fluorescence under UV light. It has been used as a solvent probe, similar to pyrene.
