The ceramic coatings on metallic materials have attracted by many researchers due to the chemical inertness of ceramic materials. In such aspect, SiOC is a promising material tobe used as protective coating layer on metallic materials due to its outstanding thermal stability and chemical inertness. In this research, SiOC coating was carried out onto SuS-316 substrate using Cl free preceramic polymers such aspolyphenylcarbosilane. 20% of polymethylphenylsilane in cyclohexane solution was coated onto metal surface by dip coating method. Thermal oxidation was carried out at $200^{\circ}C$ for crosslink of the preceramic polymer and the sample was pyrolysized at $800^{\circ}C$ under argon to convert the preceramic polymer to amorphous SiOCx state. The microstructure of the SiOCx film after pyrolysis was investigated using FE-SEM. Corrosion resistance of SiOC coated SuS-316 substrate has been investigated using 5% HCl solution at 25, 40, 60 and $80^{\circ}C$ for 7days. The data revealed that the corrosion resistance increased with SiOC coating on SuS-316 substrate.

The effects of uniaxial drawing conditions on the molecular orientation of poly (ethylene 2,6-naphthalate) (PEN) are investigated. Birefringence measurements show that the orientation is significantly enhanced at high draw ratio, low drawing temperature, and fast drawing speed. The characteristics of orientation examined by FTIR- ATR dichroism method represent almost same results. Amorphous orientation function increases with drawing rate at $120^{\circ}C$, but it decreases with drawing rate at $141^{\circ}C$. These behaviors can be explained with the relation between crystallization and chain relaxation rates. It is observed that the orientation of PEN film is accompanied by significant alignment of the naphthalene rings of PEN parallel to the film surface.

The crystallization characteristics of metallocene linear low density polyethylene was investigated by small angle light scattering and comparison was made with Ziegler-Natta linear low density polyethylene. The special efforts were made to find out the effects of branching number, length of branching and co-monomer content of m-LLDPE on the crystallization behavior of m-LLDPE. It was found that m-LLDPE has longer induction time to start crystallization from the amorphous state than that of conventional LLDPE with similar branching number, but the rate of crystallization seems not change much in both LLDPEs. Lowering of branching number in m-LLDPE resulted in both increasing of rate of crystallization and reducing induction time to crystallize. In general, the maximum size of spherulites of m-LLDPE is bigger than that of conventional LLDPE.

The shrinkages of injection molded parts are different in molding operational conditions and mold design. It also differs from resins. The shrinkages of injection molded parts for PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), PC (polycarbonate),and glass reinforced PBT and PC have been studied for various operational conditions of injection molding. The part shrinkage of crystalline polymer, PBT was higher than that of amorphous polymer, PC by about two times. The part shrinkages of both polymers decreased as glass fiber content increases. Higher Injection temperature and lower injection pressure resulted in a higher shrinkage in both PBT and PC resins. As mold temperature increases the part shrinkage of PC decreased. However, the part shrinkage of PBT increased as mold temperature increases. The part shrinkage of both PBT and PC resins decreased as gate size increases since the pressure delivery is mush easier for a larger gate size. The part shrinkage of flow direction was less than that of the perpendicular direction to the flow for both pure and glass fiber reinforced resins. The part shrinkage at the position close to the gate was less than that of the position far from the gate.

The surface and pore structure of cellulose fibers have a significant impact on the properties and performance in applications. Cellulase enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose fibers can result in changes to the surface and pore structure thus providing a useful tool for fiber modification. This research characterizes these changes using various test methods such as fiber dimension, water retention value, hard-to-remove water content, freezing and non-freezing bound water content, polymer adsorption, and crystallinity index. For a high-dosage enzyme treatment (0.10 g/g), the fiber length was significantly decreased and the fibers were 'cut' in the cross direction, not in the axial direction. The swelling capacities as measured by the WRV and HR water content increased for the high-dosage treatment. Three independent measurements (non-freezing bound water, polymer adsorption, and crystallinity index) are in good agreement with the statement that the amorphous regions of cellulose fibers are a more readily available substrate relative to crystalline regions. Based on the experimental results obtained herein, a model was proposed to explain surface and pore structure modification of cellulose fibers via enzymatic treatment.

The reactivity ratios, melting temperature and polymer morphology in propylene/butene-1 and propylene/hexene-1 copolymerization reactions were studied by examining comonomer compositions of resulting polymers. The catalysts used here are different in their supports which are silica(catalyst I) and magnesium(catalyst II). As the content of comonomer(butene-1 and hexene-1) increased in the copolymer, the melting temperature of the copolymer decreased. The morphology of polymer was amorphous in the range of comonomer(butene-1) composition over 40% in the propylene/butene-1 copolymerization and comonomer(hexene-1) composition over 80% in the propylene/hexene-1 copolymerization. The reactivity ratios were obtained by the Fineman-Ross and Kelen-$T{\ddot{u}}d{\tilde{o}}s$ methods.

Thermodynamic miscibility of the binary blends composed of semi-crystalline poly (butylene 2,6-naphthalate) (PBN) and amorphous poly (4-vinylphenol) (PVPh) was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. DSC scan results showed that there was a single glass transition temperature (T$\_$g/) for each blend. Crystalline melting temperature (T$\_$m/) depression of the PBN in the blends was also observed with the increase of PVPh content. Both results of the single T$\_$g/ and the depression of T$\_$m/ for the PBN/PVPh blends indicate that the blends are thermodynamically miscible at the molecular level. FTIR spectroscopic analysis confirmed that strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions between the ester carbonyl groups of the PBN and the hydroxyl groups of the PVPh are occurred.

We investigated the pore properties of inorganic membranes applied for hydrogen separation industry. Inorganic membranes were derived from polysilazanes. The thermal reactions involved were studied using thermogravimetry(TG) and IR spectroscopy(FTIR) of the solids. To determine the thermal effect of pore properties, polysilazanes were pyrolysed in inert atmosphere. Pore volume and BET surface area showed the maximum value at a pyrolysis temperature of $500^{\circ}C$. For amorphous SiCN membrane derived from polysilazanes, selectivity of $H_2/N_2$ was 4.81 at $600^{\circ}C$.

MCM-41 (Mobil Composition of Matter) and SBA-15 (Santa Barbara Amorphous) were used as a supported catalyst for ethylene polymerization due to their combination of large surface area and wide range of pore size distribution. The morphology of supports was used to control the morphology of the resulting polymer. Different molar ratios of Al/Ti were used for ethylene polymerization at $60^{\circ}C$ under atmospheric pressure. The effect of different mass ratios of MCM-41/SBA-15 and 1-hexene concentration on polymerization activity and polymer properties was investigated. The catalytic activity and the crystallinity reached the highest value at Al/Ti of 480. Upon incorporation of MCM-41 and SBA-15 into $MgCl_2/TiCl_4$ catalyst, the molecular weight and crystallinity of polyethylene were enhanced. The obtained polyethylene showed melting temperature between 130 and $135^{\circ}C$. The polyethylene with replication structure of support and bimodal MWD was expected.

PU block polymers are constituted by sequences of constitutional units CU which are : a diisocyanate T, a polyol or a polyamine V, an extensor E .Due to the CU different solubility parameters ,hard and soft micro domains are formed;they can aggregate into different phases. A linear PU can be described by two parameters R=T/N and $R_{E}$=(R-1)V/E.A stoichiometric model is proposed which gives the general formula of all the possible PU: X((TV)$_{k}$(TE)$_{n}$)$_{m}$X , where k and m can be calculated from the experimental molecular weights respectively of pre polymer and polymer and n= R-1.Physical properties depend on PU composition and on nature of CU. I.R. analysis is useful for discovering the hydrogen bonds location : DSC gives informations on the presence of the different phases .PALS analysis shows that nano cavities become tighter on increasing n. A series of particular Pus ,obtained from :TDI, a low molecular weight polyol, a cyclic extensor, at different R and RE was prepared and analysed. These PU are amorphous, monophasic and appear to be good candidates for membranes.nes.nes.
