Chemical utilization of $CO_2$ is recognized as the technology for the reduction of greenhouse gas as well as the use of carbon to resources. Although various chemicals are commercially produced, the innovative development is still necessary to utilize large quantity of $CO_2$. In this report, the current status of technology to preserve -CO-O- linkage into the molecules was introduced, particularly for the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and polyols, which are raw materials of polycarbonate and polyurethane, respectively. RIST developed the novel process for the DMC production via urea methanolysis and the new catalytic system for polyol synthesis. Because of high contents of $CO_2$ in both chemicals, it is expected that they are able to contribute for the reduction of greenhouse gas.

In order to improve the water resistance, we synthesized waterborne polyurethane by using polyester polyol, poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC), 4,4'-dicyclohexylmethane diisocyanate ($H_{12}MDI$), and dimethylolpropionic acid (DMPA). The properties of the synthesized waterborne polyurethane using poly(propylene carbonate) (WPUP) were evaluated by FT-IR, $^1H-NMR$, GPC, DSC, TGA, and UTM. The mechanical properties increased while the adhesion properties decreased with the increase in the amount of PPC. The highest water resistance was shown when the ratio of polyester polyol to PPC was 9:1.

Various waterborne polyurethanes (WPU) with three different types of polyol such as ester type polyol [adipic acid (A)/BD/3-methyl-1,5-pentandiol (MPD) and A/BD]//carbonate type polyol (C/HD/MPD, C/HD, C/BD)//ether type polyol (PTMG) were prepared in this study. This study focused on the effect of polyol type on the properties of WPU. Soft segment Tg (Tgs), 100% elastic modulus and tensile strength were highest when using carbonate polyol, followed by ester polyol and ether polyol, while those of elongation showed the opposite trend. The WPU synthesized with MPD - containing polyol showed lower Tgs, 100% elasticity and strength, and higher elongation than MPD - free WPU. The % transmittance and transparency of the WPU film containing the MPD component was superior to that of the WPU film containing no MPD component, and it was found that the film based on carbonate polyol was slightly better than the film based on ester polyol and ether polyol.

Organic- inorganic hybrid waterborne polyurethane (PUD) is synthesized by using hybrid polyol consist of carbonate (PCD), ester (PCL), and siloxane (PDSBP) in order to enhance anti-scratch property of PUD film. The diameter of graft type PUD emulsion is bigger than that of linear type PUD due to the graft structure of hydrophobic siloxane chain. The glass transition temperature of linear type PUD increase and the decomposition temperature of linear type PUD decrease with the content of PCD polyol. While, the decomposition temperature of graft type PUD almost same with increasing PDSBP content. The anti-scratch property and pencil hardness of graft type PUD improves as adding PDSBP polyol in the hybrid polyol system. When 9 wt% of PDSBP polyol is mixed, PUD films shows excellent anti-scratch property (~3.3 N), and pencil hardness (> 9 H).

In this study, a new paint which is able to resist the cavitation erosion is tried to be developed by using urethane added with polyol such as poly propylene glycol(PPG), poly carbonate diol(PCD), polycaprolactone polyol (PCL-1), and poly caprolactone-tetramethylene gylcolether polyol(PCL-2). The new paint synthesized by adding polyol was characterized with physical properties and resistivity to cavitation erosion. Among polyol, the prepolymer added with PCD showed high hardness and wear resistance. However, due to too high in viscosity, the prepolymer added with PCL-1 was selected as a paint. The paint added with PCL-1 showed high resistivity to cavitation erosion and its surface was monitored by using Scanning Electron Microscope.

The synthesis of bio polyol from renewable resources has attracted attention in recent years. In particular, it is important to take advantage of bio polyols in the synthesis of polymers. In this study, a series of dimethylformamide (DMF) based polyurethanes were synthesized using polycarbonate polyol/bio polyol (PO3G: polytrimethylene ether glycol prepared from 1, 3-propanediol produced by fermentation from corn sugar), methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) and 1,4-butandiol (BD). The properties of prepared polyurethane films and the cell structure of wet type artificial leather were investigated. As the bio polyol content increased, the tensile strength of polyurethane films decreased, however, the elongation at break increased significantly. As a result of thermal characteristics analysis, the glass transition temperature of polyurethanes increased when increasing the content of polycarbonate polyol. As a result of comparing the cell characteristics of wet type artificial leathers prepared in this study, it was found that the number and uniformity of cells formed in the artificial leather samples increased when increasing the content of polycarbonate polyol in polycarbonate polyol/bio polyol. From these results, it was found that DMF-based polyurethane containing an appropriate amount of bio polyol could be used for wet type artificial leather. The bio textile analysis system according to ASTM standard was used to measure the bio carbon content of polyurethane. The content of bio carbon increased proportionally with the increase of bio polyol content used in polyurethane synthesis.

Bismuth(Bi) nanoparticles were synthesized at room temperature by a modified polyol process using bismuth(III) carbonate basic as precursor. In addition, some characteristics of the synthesis with respect to the exchange of a capping agent/surface stabilizer and solvent type were observed. When polyvinylpyrroldone was added, the finest Bi nanoparticles were synthesized in diethylene glycol(DEG), while the coarsest nanoparticles were formed in polyethylene glycol(PEG). The particle size immediately after synthesis was proportionate to final particle size which was determined by particle growth through coalescence and aggregation during drying. As a result, the finest Bi particles with the diameter range of several tens of nanometers - 300 nm were finally obtained in DEG. Regardless of the type of capping agent/surface stabilizer, extensive coalescence and aggregation behavior occurred in PEG, resulting in final products agglomerated with coarse particles.

Carbonate-type polyurethane resins containing anionic moieties were systhesized from NCO-terminated prepolymer method. Membranes were manufactured from the polymer solution and the separation of aqueous ethanol solution was investigated. To enhance the property of urethane resin, carbonate-type polyol(PTMCG) was used. ${\alpha}^{\prime},{\alpha}^{{\prime}{\prime}}$-dimethylolpropionic acid was used as a chain extender to increase the hydrophilicily of the urethane membrane. The ionization of the pendent carboxylic groups in urethane resin was carried out using trimthylamine. To confirm the formation of anionic groups in urethane resin, IR spectra of model compounds were compared with those of urethane resins. It was confirmed that the concentration of hard segment and hydrogen bond contributed to the property of the concentration of hard segment and hydrogen bond contributed to the property of urethane resin in which the mole ratio of chain extender and polyol was from 3:1 to urethane resin in which the mole ratio of chain extender and polyol was from 3:1 to 5:1. The carbonate-type polyurethane containing pendent carboxylic grop(PU) had Tg of around-$25^{\circ}C$ and Tm, $45^{\circ}C$ measured by DSC. Transition temperatures of one containing pendent anionic group(APU) prepared from the ionization of PU shifted to $8{\sim}10^{\circ}C$ lower temperature region than those of PU. Pervaporation membrane was prepared through the casting method. N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF) were used as a solvent and hexamethylene diisocyanate(HMDl) as a crosslinking agent. Swelling degree increased with ethanol concentration in mixure and the control of the swelling degree of the membrane could be achieved by crossliking. The results of pervaporation were as follows : separation factor, 2.3~9.8 ; flux, $27{\sim}79.5g/m^2hr$. Pervaporation separation capacity could be enhanced by reducing the molecular weight of polyol from 2,000 to 1,000.

In this study, the acid polyols containing acid groups were synthesized, the novel polyurethane adhesive was developed by introducing the acid polyol by content. The acid polyols were introduced, the mechanical properties showed the maximum value when the acid content was 0.1 to 0.3 wt%, and it was confirmed that the mechanical properties and adhesive strength decreased at the content higher than 0.5 wt%. As the acid group, carboxylic acid and sulfuric acid were introduced to compare properties, and carboxylic acid showed stronger hydrogen bonding potential than sulfuric acid and improved mechanical properties. In addition, the correlation between particle size and mechanical properties was confirmed by introducing ZnO and CaCO₃. When ZnO and CaCO₃ were introduced, an ionic bond was formed with an acid group, and it was confirmed that mechanical properties were increased.
