  Effects of molecular weight on the local deformation of photo-cross-linked polymer blends studied by Mach–Zehnder interferometry

  Recovery-after-crosslink behavior observed for PEA-A/PEA blends. For PEA in the matrix with molecular weight smaller than the entanglement molecular weight Me, the recovery was observed, whereas the shrinkage continues upon irradiation for PEA with larger molecular weight.

  Two-dimensionally extended organic high-spin poly(aminium cationic radical)s and their magnetic force microscopic images

  High-molecular-weight and soluble two-dimensionally extended aromatic polyamines, prepared by palladium-catalyzed polycondensation, were oxidized to afford the corresponding poly(aminium cationic radical)s, which showed an average spin alignment of 8–9 unpaired electrons at low temperature. The polyradicals were substantially stable at room temperature, which enabled us to visualize the single polyradicals as a nanoscale magnetic dot image by using magnetic force microscopy.
