In this work, we focus on the tumbling dynamics of rod-like and semi-flexible polymers in mixed flows, which vary from simple shear to pure rotation. By employing a bead-rod model, the tumbling pathways and periods are examined with a focus on the angular distribution of their orientation. Under the mixed flows, the tumbling dynamics agreed well with earlier studies and confirmed the predicted scaling laws. We found that the angular distribution deviates from that of shear flow as the flow type approaches pure rotation. Finally, we investigated the angular distribution of $\lambda$-DNA in a shear flow and found that the present numerical simulations were in quantitative agreement with the previous experimental data.

Poly(p-phenylene pyromellitimide) and poly(4,4'-biphenylene pyromellitimide) are representatives of fully rod-like polyimides. Their structure and properties in thin films are reviewed. The polymers exhibit some excellent properties such as high molecular packing coefficient, high mechanical modulus, and low thermal expansion coefficient, and low interfacial stress, so that they are very attractive to both industry and academia. However, these polymers are very brittle and thus practically useless. Some chemical modifications to improve such drawback with a little sacrifice of the high modulus are described: i) incorporation of short side groups into the polymer backbone and ii) insertion of proper linkages into the polymer backbone.

The shape and characteristics of polymers in hydrolzed and polymerized sol were affected by the types of catalysts. In our research, the contents of water and catalysts were constant and the types of catalyst were varied. In the case of acid catalysts, polymers in sol were linear and spinnable. The shapes of polymer were affected by the types of anions in acid catalysts. In the case of catalyst having anions, F, Cl, in the same period, the effects were similar. But in the case of base catalysts polymers were rigid rod like and not spinnable.

In order to improve the processability of rigid rod-like polyspiroacetals without significant loss of their good nature, in this work a few new ideas for molecular design were adopted: (1) Copolymerization for breaking the regularity of polymer repeating units. (2) Incorporation of flexible methylene linkages or spacers in rigid spiroacetal polymer main chain. (3) Derivatization of long flexible side chains onto rigid polymer backbone. On the basis of these ideas, a series of polyspiroacetals were prepared, using the phase transfer catalyst, BTMAC, by interfacial polymerization reactions of spiroacetal monomer (SAB) and disubstituted aromatic acid chlorides or aliphatic diacid chlorides. Physical properties of these polyspiroacetals are discussed in relation to their chemical structure and are compared with those of polyspiroacetals synthesized by several other researchers.

Dendrimers represent a new class of synthetic macromolecules characterized by a regularly branched treelike structure. Multiple branching yields a large number of chain ends that distinguish dendrimers from conventional star-like polymers and microgels. The azobenzene dendrimer is one of the dendrimeric macromolecules that include the azo-group exhibiting a photochromic character. Due to the presence of the charge transfer element of the azo-group and its rod-shaped structure, these compounds are expected to have potential interest in electronics and photoelectronics, especially in nonlinear optics. In the present paper, we give pressure stimulation to organic thin films and detect the induced displacement current. Functional photoisometrization organic molecular the photo-stimulus to organic monomolecular L-films and LB films of dendrimer and 8A5H were performed. The 8A5H organic monolayer in case of pressure stimulus occurred that positive course but in case of the photo-stimulus compared positive and negative. It is assumed that generation forms of displacement current were measured when photo-stimulus for Impression.

In the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique, a monolayer on the water surface is transferred onto a substrate, which is raised and dipped through the surface. From this, multilayers can be obtained in which constituent molecules are periodically arranged. The LB technique has attracted considerable interest in the fabrication of electrical and electronic devices. Many researchers have investigated the electrical properties of monolayer and multiplayer films. Dendrimers represent a new class of synthetic macromolecules characterized by a regularly branched treelike structure. Multiple branching yields a large number of chain ends that distinguish dendrimers from conventional star-like polymers and microgels. The azobenzene dendrimer is one of the dendritic macromolecules that include the azo-group exhibiting a photochromic character. Due to the presence of the charge transfer element of the azo-group and its rod-shaped structure, these compounds are expected to have potential interest in electronics and ptoelectronics, especially in nonlinear optics. In the present paper, we give pressure stimulation to organic thin films and detect the induced displacement current.
