The rate constants for the addition reaction of n-butylmercaptan to ethylacrylate have been measured by iodometry and for the proposed reaction mechanism a rate equation which can be applied over wide pH range was derived. From this rate equation, one may conclude that the reaction is started by addition of n-butylmercaptan molecule below pH 4. However, above pH 7, this addition reaction is proceeded by the n-butylmercaptide ions. At pH 4-7, the complex addition reaction mechanism can also be revealed by this rate equation.

In the present work, Diels-Alder reaction of cyclopentadiene with ethylacrylate has been carried out by using two types of mesoporous solid acid catalysts (Al-MCM-41, Al-MCM-48) with different pore structures. The specific topology of Al-MCM-48 (cubic Ia3d structure composed of two independent 3-D channel systems) exhibit higher activity and stereo-control than those of Al-MCM-41 (hexagonal packing of 1-D channels). The physical properties of Al-MCM-48 catalyst, such as high accessibility of reactants to the acid sites, spatial confinement in the nanoscopic reactors, and 3-D channel network structure that are effective adsorption and diffusion of reactants, play a crucial role in the present study.

The cycloaddition of the newely synthesized 5-(2-thienyl)methylene derivatives of thiazolidinone-4-thiones, 2a-c to acrylonitrile (3a), ethylacrylate (3b), N-phenylmaleimide (6) and dimethyl fumarate (8) has been evaluated. Under thermal reaction conditions [4 +2] cycloaddition proceeds with complete site and regioselectivity to yield the cycloadduct, 4, 5, 7 and 9, respectively. The antimicrobial activities of some of the new products were tested.

The polymer blends of waste polyvinyl chloride (RPVC) and waste polyethylene(RPE) were prepared by melt mixing, and their morphology and tensile properties were evaluated after the copolymers having an ethylene group in backbone and ester group in side position were added as comptatibilizers. The blend compositions were varied as follows ; RPVC/RPE 85/15 wt%, where RPVC formed a continuous phase : 50/50, mid composition : 15/85, RPE a continuous phase. The blends revealed a very low compatibility between component polymers because they showed domain sizes greater than $10\mu\textrm{m}$ over all compositions, especially the worst compatibility around mid composition. The blends showed higher compatibility when ethylene vinylacetate copolymer(EVA) and ethylene ethylacrylate-graft-methyl methacrylate copolymers(EEA-MMA) were added.

Functionally graded polyurethane elastomers PUEs/grad. Poly(dimethylammoninum ethylacrylate bromide)(PDMAEA) were prepared by the method of electrophoresis. Results of elemental analysis showed that concentration of PDMAEA had gradient across the thickness(2mm) of the base PUEs. The modified PUEs(PUEs/grad. PDMAEA) containing high concentration of PDMAEA displayed low degree of swelling in benzene which was poor solvent for PDMAEA, and high degree of swelling in water which was good solvent. For the each layer of modified PUEs, glass transition temperature, dynamic storage modulus were stooled by DSC, Rheovibron DDV-IIC dynamic viscoelastomer. The chemomechanical properties of modified PUEs was explored by the electric-stimulus.

In order to study the change in mechanical properties and anti-flammablilty of ethylene-ethylacrylate copolymer(EEA) very low density polyethylene(VLDPE) compound that could be used as communication cable sheath using $Mg(OH)_2$ as a non-toxic flame retardant, 100, 125, and 150phr $Mg(OH)_2$ were added to 100 parts of EEA-VLDPE compound, 100 EEA : 0 VLDPE, 50 EEA : 50 VLDPE, and 0 EEA : 100 VLDPE, respectively. $Mg(OH)_2$ was a good non-toxic flame retardant for communication cable sheath and anti-flammability increased with the amount of $Mg(OH)_2$ in compound. The mechanical properties-MI, Ts, and Eb-decreased with increasing in the mixing ratio of EEA but oxygen index(OI) increased with increasing in the amount of EEA. The best composition of $Mg(OH)_2$ in this study was 150phr to 50 EEA : 50 VLDPE compound for the anti-flammability.

The aim of this study was to develop a stable enteric coated diclofenac sodium (DFS) tablets using Aqua-Polish E without using a subcoat. DFS uncoated tablets were manufactured through the non direct compression process. AquaPolish E white aqueous coating dispersion was used as enteric coating material. This film forming polymer is a mixture of selected polymethacrylic/ethylacrylate copolymers. The stability of the obtained enteric coated tablets was evaluated according to ICH guidelines. No signs of disintegration or cracking was observed when they placed in 0.1N HCl solution (pH1.2), but they were completely disintegrated within 10 minutes when they placed in buffered solution at pH6.8. Dissolution test was also conducted by placing tablets in 0.1 N HCl for 2 hours and then 1 hour in phosphate buffer at pH 6.8. Less than 0.9 % of drug was released in the acidic phase and up to 97% in the basic medium. These findings suggest that aqueous enteric coating with AquaPolish E system is an easy and economical approach for preparing stable DFS enteric coat without the use of a subcoating layer.

Acrylic rubber was synthesized using ethyl acrylate. butyl acrylate, methoxyethyl acrylate as main monomers and glycidyl methacrylate as cure site monomer by emulsion polymerization. Rubber compound was made by adding 2,2-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane as crosslinking agent. Increase of ethyl acrylate content in the main monomer ratio resulted in enhancement of heat resistance due to decrease of glass transition temperature in acrylic rubber. And also oil resistance was increased with increasing content of ethyl acrylate because ethyl acrylate has the highest ester concentration in the three main monomers. With content of 2,2-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane, both tensile strength and elongation were increased until 2 phr, but in higher content than that, they decreased owing to reduction of viscosity and elongation by increase of crosslinking density.

The effect of intermolecular aggregation induced by hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions on shear and elongational flow properties of aqueous acrylic thickener solutions is discussed. Complex shear modulus is determined at frequencies up to $10^4$ rad/s employing oscillatory squeeze flow. Extensional flow behavior is characterized using Capillary Break-up Extensional Rheometry. Aqueous solutions of poly(acrylic acid)(PAA)/poly(vinylpyrrolidone-co-vinylimidazole) (PVP-VI) mixtures exhibit unusual rheological properties described here for the first time. Zero-shear viscosity of the mixtures increases with decreasing pH and can exceed that of the pure polymers in solution by more than two orders of magnitude. This is attributed to the formation of complexes induced by electrostatic interactions in the pH range, where both polymers are oppositely charged. PAA/PVP-VI mixtures are compared to the commercial thickener Sterocoll FD (BASF SE), which is a statistical co-polymer including (meth) acrylic acid and ethylacrylate (EA) forming aggregates in solution due to "sticky" contacts among hydrophobic EA-sequences. PAA/PVP-VI complexes are less compact and more deformable than the hydrophobic Sterocoll FD aggregates. Solutions of PAA/PVP-VI exhibit a higher zero-shear viscosity even at lower molecular weight of the aggregates, but are strongly shear-thinning in contrast to the weakly shear-thinning solutions of Sterocoll FD. The higher ratio of characteristic relaxation times in shear and elongation determined for PAA/PVP-VI compared to Sterocoll FD solutions reflects, that the charge-induced complexes provide a much stronger resistance to extensional flow than the aggregates formed by hydrophobic interactions. This is most likely due to a break-up of the latter in extensional flow, while there is no evidence for a break-up of complexes for PAA/PVP-VI mixtures. These flexible aggregates are more suitable for the stabilization of thin filaments in extensional flows.

$N_1-alkyl-5-fluorouracil$ derivatives from 2-chloro-ethylacrylate(CEA) were synthesized. The reaction of 5-fluorouracil(5-FU) with 2-chloroethyl acrylate gave 1-hydroxyethyl-5-fluorouracil(HEFU) in 70% yield. The treatment of HEFU with acryloyl chloride afforded 1-acryloyloxyethyl-5-fluorouracil (AOEFU). Poly(1-acryloyloxyethyl-5-fluorouracil)[Poly(AOEFU)] was also synthesized from 5-fluorouracil and Poly(CEA). The hydrolysis rates of $N_1-alkyl-5-fluorouracil$ derivatives were observed by means of UV spectrophotometer at 265 nm in ethanol-water(1 : 1); k = the constant of hydrolysis rate, $k=1.38{\times}10^{-4}$/sec for HEFU, $k=9.25{\times}10^{-5}$/sec for AOEFU, $k=4.16{\times}10^{-5}$k = 4.16 ${\times}$ $10-5}sec$ for Poly(AOEFU). The differential thermal analysis and thermogravimetry of 5-fluorouracil derivatives have been discussed.
