| Abstract | Monomers structurally resembling lignin were prepared by reacting 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, vanillin, syringaldehyde, (each bio-available) or ethylvanillin (synthetic) with dibromoethane, yielding dialdehydes CHO–Ar–OCH2CH2O–Ar–CHO. Condensation copolymerization with tetraols catalyzed by para-toluene sulfonic acid yielded polyacetal ethers with cyclic acetals in the case of di-trimethylolpropane (di-TMP) and spirocyclic acetals in the case of pentaerythritol (PTOL). Number average molecular weights (Mn) were in the range of 10 600 to 22 200, although the insolubility of those polymers based on 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde precluded this measurement. The polymers are thermally robust and exhibit 5% mass loss via thermogravimetric analysis in the range of 307–349 °C. Those copolymers based on PTOL displayed glass transition (Tg) temperatures (108–152 °C) at least 40 °C higher than their di-TMP analogues (68–98 °C), highlighting the added rigidity conferred by spirocyclic acetals versus cyclic acetals. Preliminary degradation studies were conducted in dimethyl sulfoxide with 0.5% added aqueous HCl (concentrated or 2 M). Dynamic light scattering confirmed the facile hydrolysis of the polymers. Generally, polymer degradation was faster with a higher acid concentration and copolymers from the PTOL tetraol were more resistant to hydrolysis than those from the di-TMP tetraol. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
