A series of hydrophobically associating fluorinated amphiphilic polyacrylamide copolymers with remarkably high heat resistance and salt tolerance were synthesized by free radical micellar copolymerization, using acrylamide (AM) and sodium 2-acrylamido-tetradecane sulfonate ($AMC_{14}S$) as amphiphilic monomers, and 2-(perfluorooctyl) ethyl acrylate (PFHEA) as hydrophobic monomer. The structure of the terpolymer was characterized by FTIR, $^1H$ NMR and $^{19}F$ NMR. The solution properties of the terpolymers were investigated in details, and the results showed that the terpolymer solution had strong intermolecular hydrophobic association as the concentration exceeded the critical association concentration 1.5 g/L. The terpolymer solution possessed high surface activity, viscoelasticity, excellent heat resistance, salt tolerance and shearing resistance. The viscosity retention rate of copolymer solution was as high as 59.9% under the condition of fresh wastewater, $85^{\circ}C$ and a 60-days aging test.

The mechanical and the platelet adhesion properties of the fluorinated polyurethane elastomers synthesized with a perfluorinated polyether diol (Fomblin ZDOL$ZDOL^{(R)}$) and 4,4'-diphenyl methane diisocyanate (MDI) were investigated. The change of mechanical properties with the Fomblin content and the type of the polyether diol was investigated by applying a designed technique using in vitro platelet adhesion test. As a result, the tensile properties were affected by the content and the type of nixed polyether diols. Also the platelet adhesion of polyurethane elastomers decreased with increasing the extent of fluorination in the polymer.

The objective of this study is to obtain thermally stable and low optical loss polymers for optical waveguiding materials. The crosslinkable poly (maleimide-co-methacrylate)s were synthesized using a pentafluorophenylmaleimide (an optical loss reducer), two methacrylate derivatives (refractive index controllers), and a glycidylmethacrylate (a crosslinker). These copolymers exhibited good thermal stability and could be thermally crosslinked by heat treatment. The refractive indexes of the copolymers could be precisely controlled by the variation of comonomer feed ratio, which was in the range of 1.45 ~ 1.49. These copolymers had very low birefringence of $6{ imes}10^{-4}$ ~ $1{ imes}10^{-4}$. These copolymers were crosslinked by contact printing and then developed by wet etching to obtain high quality waveguide pattern.

Fluoroalkyl methacrylate and acrylic acid were bulk radical copolymerized in the presence of pure sodium montmorillonite or macromer intercalated sodium montmorilonite to get a fluorinated acrylic ionomer/sodium montmorillonite composite, and their physical properties, such as X-ray diffraction pattern, tensile properties, and water uptake, were examined. These composites were used to preparean ionic acrylic polymer-platinum composite (IPMC). The current and deformation responses of these IPMCs by external voltage applied across the platinum electrodes deposited on both sides of IPMC showed that the cation migration from anode to cathode was suppressed in the presence of sodium montmorillonite, causing reduced current and deformation.

A symmetric-viewing inverse-twisted-nematic (ITN) liquid crystal display (LCD) with alternating alignment layers was developed using a stamping-assisted rubbing (SAR) technique. A patterned layer of a fluorinated acrylate polymer was transferred onto the first rubbed vertical-alignment layer prepared on a substrate by stamping. The fluorinated acrylate polymer provided a protective layer covering the first rubbed alignment layer during the second rubbing process, which promoted the vertical alignment of the LC molecules. The LC cell in the ITN geometry with two orthogonally rubbed alignment layers showed symmetric-viewing characteristics with fourfold symmetry. The SAR technique was shown to be a mask-free alignment method of producing multidomains for symmetric-viewing LCDs.

In this paper, new non-chiral molecules with semi-fluorinated alkyl chains were synthesized varying the structure of central bent core unit. Their mesomorphic properties were investigated by DSC and polarized microscopy. The compound with 1,3-dihydroxy phenylene unit could form an enantiomeric smectic phase, but the remaining compounds with bent-core mesogenic unit were not liquid crystalline. In this presentation, their x-ray measurement and electro-optical property will be also described.

Fluorinated polyimides with high thermal stability, low optical absorption loss in the optical communication wavelengths of 1.3 and 1.55㎛, and low birefringence and water absorption have been investigated for optical waveguide applications. These polyimides were prepared from 2,2-bis(3,4-dicar-boxyphenyl) hexafluoropropane dianhydride (6FDA) with 1,4-bis-(4-amino-2-trifluoromethyl-phenoxy) tetrafluorobenzene (ATPT) , 1,4-bis-(4-amino-2-trifluoromethyl-phenoxy) benzene (ATPB) , and 1,3-bis-(4-amino-2-trifluoromethyl-phenoxy ) 4,6-dichlorobenzene (ATPD ), respectively. The polyimides obtained had glass transition temperatures that ranged from 260 to 280$\^{C}$, and low water absorption less than 0.4% and low optical loss (> 0.2 dB/cm) at 1.3 and 1.55㎛. Birefringency values of polymer films ranged from 0.0041 to 0.0066.

In this study, illite, an environmental friendly, low cost, and high aspect ratio additive, was used to improve flame retardant property of epoxy and it was fluorinated to enhance dispersion of hydrophilic illite in hydrophobic epoxy by introducing hydrophobic functional groups. Fluorination of illite enhanced illite dispersion ill epoxy solution before curing and that in the complex after curing. These enhanced dispersions were attributed to the increased affinity of illite to hydrophobic epoxy solution induced by fluorination of illite and the increased intercalation of epoxy polymer or exfoliation of illite by epoxy curing. Hence, limited oxygen index(LOI) of fluorinated illite/epoxy complex increased by 24%, compared to that of epoxy, suggesting that the preparation of fluorinated illite/epoxy complex increased their flame retardant properties.

In this study, alkoxysilane-functionalized amphiphilic polymer (AFAP), which have hydrophilic segment and hydrophobic segment functionalized by alkoxysilane group at the same backbone, was synthesized and used as a dispersant and control agent for reaction rate in the preparation of colloidally stable organic-inorganic (O-I) hybrid sols. After reaction with fluorosilane compounds, fluorinated O-I hybrid sols were prepared and coated onto glass substrate to form hydrophobic O-I hybrid coating films through low-temperature curing process. Surface hardness and hydrophobicity of cured coating films were varied with type of solvent and composition of AFAP and fluorinated alkoxysilane compounds. At appropriate solvent and composition of fluorinated alkoxysilane compounds, O-I hybrid coating film having high transparency and surface hardness could be prepared, which could be applicable to cover window of solar cell and displays.

In this work, the thermal, antibiotic properties and far-infrared emissivity of fluorinated illite embedded polypropylene non-woven fibers (f-illite/PP fibers) were investigated in the presence of 0, 1, 3, 5 and 7 wt% illite powders. The thermal properties of f-illite/PP fibers were studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Their antibiotic properties were examined by Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae test. Their far-infrared emissivity was also investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. From the experimental results, thermal, antibiotic properties and far-infrared emissivity of f-illite/PP fibers were improved by increasing fluorinated illite contents and the property values of 5 wt% f-illite/PP fibers were increased remarkably by about 10.3, 41.2 and 9.8% respectively in comparison with PP non-woven fibers having no fluorinated illite additive. This result was interpreted as the development of interfacial adhesion force between the polymer chains due to the fluorination of illite power.
