Polyarylate(PAR)-nylon 6 block copolymers of various block lengths were prepared by the anionic polymerization of ${\varepsilon}$-caprolactam using the polymeric activator from hydroxy-difuncrtional PAR and toluene diisocyanate. Phase separated morphology of PAR-nylon 6 block copolymer was suggerted from the thermal properties measured by differential scanning calorometry(d.s.c.). Partial miscbility between PAR block and nylon 6 block of the block copolymers was more evident at shorter length of constituent blocks. In binary blends of PAR-nylon 6 block copolymer with PAR or nylon 6 homopolymer, molecular-level mixing of homopolymers with corresponding blocks of block copolymer was supposed from the thermal properties measured by d.s.c..

Anionic polymerization of 2-pyrrolidone was carried out via PPBC/KOH catalysis. The effects of PPBC/KOH mole ratio, KOH concentration and temperature on polymerization have been investigated. It was observed that the highest rate of polymerization and maximum conversion were obtained when PPBC/KOH mole ratio was around 0.5. The maximum conversion and the highest viscosity were obtained when the concentration of KOH was 2 mole percent. It was also found that while the rate of polymerization at $50^{\circ}C$ was higher than at $30^{\circ}C$ in the initial stage of polymerization, the conversion and viscosity were decreased as polymerization time was extended. The rate constant $(k_p)$ of polymerization was determined by least square method; the values of $k_p$ obtained were $22.4\;l/mole{\cdot}hr\;at\;30^{\circ}C\;and\;191.9\;l/mole{\cdot}hr\;at\;50^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Commercially available polyamide thermoplastic elastomer (PA-TPE) was blended with hybrid filler which was prepared by means of the reaction between polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) containing amine group and toluene diisocyanate (TDI)-caprolactam (CL) to explore the effect of blending the hybrid filler with the TPE. The chemical structure of the filler was identified by using FTIR and $^1H$ NMR. The composites, PA-TPE/POSS-(TDI+CL), which were the blends of TDI+CL modified POSS filler and PA-TPE up to 7 wt%, showed better elastic recovery delivered from lower tension setting compared to the PA-TPE and the PA-TPE/octaphenyl POSS blend. In addition the tensile strength and the initial modulus increased with increasing the hybrid filled content. Consequently it was assumed that the POSS-(TDI+CL) filler was a suitable material for enhancing strength and modulus without loss of elastic properties for the original PA-TPE.

천연의 메탄 하이드레이트를 생산하기 위한 방법으로는 크게 다음의 세 가지가 알려져 있다; 감압법, 열 자극법, 저해제 주입법. 갑압법이 가장 경제성이 높은 방법으로 보고 있으며, 이를 활용한 개발생산 시에는 해리 이후의 잔류 물에서 하이드레이트 전구체라고 알려진 하이드레이트 구조가 남아 있으며 이는 생산된 메탄 가스의 이송 과정에서 하이드레이트 재생성의 위험을 높이게 된다. 하이드레이트 재생성을 방지할 수 있는 한 가지 수단으로는 억제제를 주입하는 방법이 가능한데, 적절한 양을 주입함으로써 생산의 경제성을 높일 수 있다. 최근 들어 kinetic 억제제의 적용이 인기를 얻고 있는 바, 수용성 고분자인 이들 억제제를 적용하여 초기 하이드레이트 핵 생성을 지연시킬 수 있다. 이들 kinetic 억제제를 메탄 하이드레이트 생산 과정에서 투여하는 방법을 실험적으로 측정해 보았고, 잔류의 하이드레이트 구조에 대한 존재여부에 대하여 간접적으로 증명해보고자 하였다. kinetic 억제제로는 Poly Vinyl Caprolactam (PVCap)을 선택하였다. 해리압력, PVCap 주입 농도에 변화를 주면서 메탄 하이드레이트 생산, 수송과정에서 발생할 수 있는 하이드레이트 재생성 억제에 대한 효과를 실험적으로 측정하였다.

Studies have been conducted to explore thermal imidization of polyamic acid. Aromatic polyimides are well recognized as high temperature linear polymers, and polyimide are used as structural materials, fibers, and adhesive. Two different kinds of polyimide were prepared by theimidization of polyamic acid which were synthesized from 2,2-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]- hexafluoropropane, 2,2-bis [4-(4-aminophenxy)phenyl] - hexamethylpropane and caprolactam and pyromelliti dianhydride under N-Methly-pyrrolidinone solvent. Polyamic acids were converted to polyimides containing imide bond by thermal imidization. The weight 50% loss temperatures of polyimide by TGA thermogram were recorded in the range of 700 ~ 720$^{\circ}$C in nitrogen gas. According, as a results, we conclued polyamic acid were cycliation after H2O molecule separationed, and this polyimide film could be used for Printed Circuit Boand.

In the present study, ROS detection of L5178Y cells that were treated with twenty test compounds in order to find out hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) induction for genotoxicity and carcinogenic toxicity. Twenty test compounds were consist of four classes, such as genotoxic carcinogens, genotoxic noncarcinogens, nongenotoxic carcinogens, and nongenotoxic noncarcinogens. Genotoxic carcinogens are 1,2-dibromoethane, glycidol, melphalan, diethylstilbestrol and urethane. Genotoxic noncarcinogens are 8-hydroxyquinoline, emodin, acetonitrile and diallylphthalate, L-ascorbic acid. Nongenotoxic carcinogens are methyl carbamate, O-nitrotoluene, 1,4-dioxane, tetrachloroethylene and 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin.

As the preliminary works for the preparation of exfoliated nanocomposites by reactive extrusion (REX) the modified anionic polymerization proceeded in a flask using an $\varepsilon$-caprolactam, catalyst, initiator, and clay. Polymerization methods were classified with a variation of the clay adding time. Intercalations mechanism of clay layers was investigated by measuring the WAXD peaks of clay with polymerization. In the preparation of nanocomposites, the molecular weight of nylon 6 was affected by the clay content. From the mechanical property measurement, improved properties were obtained in comparison to the neat nylon 6, and these properties were also affected by the molecular weight.

In this study, chemical demulsification and electrical treatment methods were investigated for improving the efficiency of water separation from a water/bitumen emulsion. Two types of motor oils (GS Caltex, Deluxe Gold V 7.5 W/30 and, Hyundai gear oil 85 W/140) were used as model oils in basic experiments to investigate the effects of a demulsifier on water/oil emulsion separation. Chemical demulsifiers showing good water separation performance were then used in asphalt emulsion and bitumen emulsion separation trials. Maleic anhydride and e-caprolactam were shown to be good oil soluble demulsifiers and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate and acrylic acid were effective as water soluble demulsifiers. Based on the results obtained in basic experiments, these four demulsifiers were used in further asphalt emulsion experiments. The oil soluble demulsifiers showed higher water separation efficiencies than the water soluble demulsifiers. To investigate the water separation efficiency using a combined chemical and electrical treatment method, the water/bitumen emulsion was separated with the electrical oil treatment apparatus after a chemical demulsifier had been added to it.

A distinguished class of hydrophobic ionic liquids bearing a Br${\o}$nsted acidic character derived from amide-like compounds were prepared by a neutralization reaction of N,N-diethylformamide, N,N-dibutylformamide, 1-formylpiperidine, and $\varepsilon$-caprolactam with trifluoroacetic acid and physical absorptions of $CO_2$ in these ionic liquids were demonstrated and evaluated. $CO_2$ solubilities in these ionic liquids were influenced by the molecular structure of the cation and were apparently increased with the molar volume. Comparison based on a volume unit reveals that $CO_2$ solubilities in these liquids are relatively higher than those in imidazolium-based ionic liquids. Henry's coefficients calculated from low-pressure solubility tests at 313 to 333 K were used to derive the thermodynamics quantities. Enthalpy and entropy of solvation may share equal contributions in solubility.

Isocyanate-terminated SBR-prepolymers were prepared from SBR-diol and excess toluene diisocyanate. These prepolymers were then used as initiators for the sodium-catalyzed polymerization of ${\varepsilon}$-caprolactam. The resulting block copolymers, presumably the structure of nylon 6-SBR-nylon 6, were confirmed from their IR spectra. The viscosities of these polymers were measured in phenol/tetrachloroethane and the molecular weights were estimated. The polymerization reaction was not affected by the change in concentration of catalyst, but significantly faster at $185^{\circ}C$ than at $150^{\circ}C$. And the initiator concentration of 0.5 mole % gave good results.
