Emulsion graft copolymerization of MMA onto cotton fiber using Ce(IV) salt as an initiator was carried out. Graft yield and graft efficiency were observed according to the kinds and concentrations of emulsifier and polymerization conditions. The physical properties of MMA grafted cotton fabric were investigated. The results of this study were as follows: 1. The heighest graft yield of emulsion graft polymerization occurred at the concentration below cmc of emulsifier, which was different from emulsion polymerization. Nonionic sur- factant as an emulsifier was more effective than anionic one. 2. The highest graft yield was obtained at the initiator concentration $1{\times}10^{-2}mol/l$. The viscometric molecular weight of PMMA was in the order of 106. 3. As reaction time increased, the graft yield increased but the graft efficiency decreased. 4. Elevation of reaction temperature resulted in increase of graft yield. The apparent activation energy of MMA graft polymerization was 4.72 Kcal/mol. 5. Physical properties of MMA grafted cotton fabric varied with increase of grafting. Thickness and stiffness showed a noticeable increase, whereas tensile strength and elongation was slightly increased. Crease recovery increased as the graft yield increase up to $50\%$ and decreased thereafter.

The copolymerization of N-acryloylpyrrolidone and acrylonitrile was performed in N,N'-dimethylformamide at 50$^{\circ}$C and monomer reactivity ratio was obtained by using IR working curve and Fineman and Ross equation. ($r_1$ = 0.43, $r_2$ = 1.56) It is found that resulting copolymer is good polymeric initiator for anionic graft copolymerization of 2-pyrrolidone. Graft copolymers with polybutylamide (nylon-4) grafts onto poly(NAP-Co-AN) backbone were synthesized and the various effects on the graft copolymerization of 2-pyrrolidone were examined. The rate constants ($K_p$) of graft anionic polymerization at 40 and 50$^{\circ}$C were 2.82${\times}$10 and 2.93${\times}$10(l/mole, min), respectively.

Emulsion polymerization was carried out using RMA like MMA, EMA, BMA and Styrene(St.) as monomer for core-shell latex preparation. It was synthesized at $80^{\circ}C$ in the presence of anionic surfactant SLS. FT-IR, TGA and DSC analysis are used to confirm synthesized core-shell emulsion latexes and to investigate the thermal characteristics of them. From analysis of TGA and DSC, the differences of the decomposition rate and the activation energy are not so large. It considers that the pendent group is not affect of the thermal characteristics and stability on core-shell latexes, which is synthesized with RMA and Styrene.

Perfluoroaryl boranes are widely employed as co-catalysts in olefin polymerization processes. Perfluoroaryl diboranes, possessing borane centers in close proximity, are a subclass of this family of compounds that are in theory capable of chelating neutral and anionic bases. The resulting anions are exceptionally weakly coordinating. We have prepared examples of such compounds and studied their coordination behavior with neutral Lewis bases that have the capability to bridge Lewis acid sites in an effort to delineate the kinetic and thermodynamic factors that influence bonding mode. When protic Lewis bases such as alcohols or water are reacted with diboranes, strong Bronsted acids capable of initiating cationic polymerizations under unusual conditions result.

To improve the quality of coated paper, the continuous research to the coating components and development of alternative latices is required. Recently, amphoteric latex is getting a great concern due to their changable properties of surface charge through controlling pH and some methods have been tried to prepare amphoteric latices. This study was carried out to synthesize amphoteric latex using seeding polymerization method with low concentration emulsifier. Styrene was used as a main monomer in addition to acrylonitrile for a hydrophilic comonomer. acrylic acid for a anionic comonomer and N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate for a cationic comonomer. Particle size and viscosity of latex were greatly affected by addition of acrylic acid and ammonium persulfate as an initiator. Negative charge of latex in alkali condition was changed to zero to positive charge in around pH 4.

Anionic ring-opening polymerization of 3,4-[(dimethylsilyl)isopropyl]benzo-1,1-dimethyl-1-silacyclopentene in the presence of n-butyllithium and HMPA in THF at - 78 ℃ afforded poly[3,4-(dimethylsilylisopropyl)benzo-1,1-dimethyl-1-silapentene]. The characteristic Si-H stretching frequency in the IR is observed at 2100 cm-1. The polycarbosilane has been modified by chloroplatinic acid catalyzed addition of styrene to the polycarbosilane SiH units. Molecular weights and thermal properties of the polymers were compared. The sol-gel polymerization of 3,4-[(dimethoxysilyl)isopropyl]benzo-1,1-dimethoxy-1-silacyclopentene in the presence of aqueous HCl or NaOH in THF resulted in a cross-linked polysiloxane. The xerogel has a low surface area of 13-14 m2/g and is stable up to about 400 ℃ with only 5% weight loss under a nitrogen atmosphere.

Amine-type PP-g-VBC-EDA adsorbent, which possesses anionic exchangeable function, was prepared through photoinduced graft polymerization of vinylbenzyl chloride (VBC) onto polypropylene non-woven fabric and subsequent amination reaction using ethylenediamine (EDA). Adsorption characteristics of anionic nutrients on the PP-g-VBC-EDA adsorbent have been studied by batch adsorption experiments. The equilibrium data well fitted the Langmuir isotherm model, and the maximum monolayer sorption capacity was found to be 59.9 mg/g for $NO_3-N$ and 111.4 mg/g for $PO_4-P$. The adsorption energies were higher than 8 kJ/mol indicating anion-exchange process as the primary adsorption mechanism. The pseudo-second order kinetic model described well the kinetic data and resulted in the activation energy of 9.8-36.7 kJ/mol suggesting that the overall rates of $NO_3-N$ and $PO_4-P$ adsorption are controlled by the chemical process. Thermodynamic parameters such as ${\Delta}G^o$, ${\Delta}H^o$ and ${\Delta}S^o$ indicated that the adsorption nature of PP-g-VBC-EDA for anionic nutrients is spontaneous and exothermic. The PP-g-VBC-EDA could be regenerated by washing with 0.1 N HCl.

1,1-Dicyano-2-ethoxycyclobutane (1a) was prepared by [2 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of vinylidene cyanide with ethyl vinyl ether. 1,1-Dicyano-2-phenylcyclobutane (1b) was prepared by the reactions involving the reduction of cinnamyl alcohol, chlorination, cyanomethylation, bromination, and ring-closure reaction. Compound 1a was ring-opening polymerized with NaCN or n-butyllithium to give a low molecular weight polymer. The compound 1b however, failed to polymerize by either anionic or radical catalysts.

Acrylic adhesives for automobiles protection were prepared by emulsion polymerization. Monomers used were n-butyl acrylate(BA), acrylonitrile (AN), butyl methacrylate(BMA), glycidyl methacrylate(GMA), and acrylic acid (AA). Emulsifiers used were sodium lauryl sulfate and polyoxyethylene lauryl ether, which are an anionic emulsifier and a nonionic emulsifier respectively. Potassium persulfate was used as an initiator and polyvinyl alcohol was used as a stabilizer. Emulsion polymerization was carried out in a semi-batch reactor at $70^{\circ}C$ and agitation speed was kept at 200 rpm. Water resistance, heat resistance, acid resistance, alkali resistance and smoke resistance were examined. As a result, when each 0.03 mole of GMA and AA was introduced, the adhesion properties and various above mentioned resistances of the prepared adhesives were satisfied the standard for automobiles.
