We developed in the present study molecular imprinted polymers (MIPs), using single templates (pentoxifylline, caffeine and theophylline) and mixed-templates (pentoxifylline-caffeine, pentoxifylline-theophylline and caffeine-theophylline). The MIPs were prepared with methacrylic acid (MAA) as the monomer, ethylene glycol dimetharylate (EGDMA) as the crosslinker and 2,2'-azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) as the initiator. The obtained polymer particles (particle size after grinding was about 25-35 ${\mu}$m) were packed into a HPLC column (3.9 mm i.d. ${\times}$ 150 mm). The selectivity and chromatographic characteristics of the MIPs were studied using acetonitrile as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. UV detector wavelength was set at 270 nm. Different single template MIPs showed different molecular recognitions to the templates and the structurally analogues, according to the rigidity and steric hindrance of the compounds. Recognition was improved on the mixed-template MIPs as a result of the cooperation or sum effect of the templates, whereas on the pentoxifylline-theophylline imprinted polymer, the highest selectivity and affinity were obtained. Separations of the test compounds on different polymers were also investigated.

Characteristics of poly(vinyl alcohol)-poly(methacrylic acid) system (PVA.-PMAA system) for fixation of radioactive contaminant on sand were studied. Dissociation of carboxyl group in PMAA was found to be suppressed by PVA Permeability of sand layer treated with PVA-PMAA solution is directly proportional to the PMAA concentration when the ［PMAA］ is below 0.082 M and the empirical proportional constant (k) is -8.95$\times$10￣$^4$cm$^{5}$ /mole. The change of permeability can be explained by the formation of an intermacromolecular complex between PVA and PMAA The polymer bridge formed on a sand surface combines sand yams more firmly. The PVA-PMAA system is more effective than the PVA system for the fixation of deposited condensational radionuclides.

In order to investigate applicability for 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl methacrylate (TFEMA) produced by esterification of 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol(TFEA) and methacrylic acid(MA) using pervaporation membrane, poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) composite membranes were prepared with glutaraldehyde(GA) onto porous polyethersulfone(PES) support. The degree of crosslinking and thickness of PVA coating layer were analyzed by swelling test and SEM(scanning electron microscopy), respectively. Pervaporation test was done with two feed mixures; TFEA/water, MA/water. The pervaporation data were obtained as a function of content of crosslinking agent, feed composition, and operating temperature, respectively. In case of TFEA-water(90/10 wt%) feed mixture at $80^{\circ}C$, the optimized membrane showed the high permeation flux of 1.5 $kg/m^2hr$ and separation factor of 320. In case of MA-water(90/10 wt%) feed mixture, the membranealso showed high permeation flux of 2.3 $kg/m^2hr$ and separation factor of 740 in same conditions.

Natural water-soluble polymers such as starch, casein and carboxy methyl cellulose(CMC) have been limited in their uses. However, the proper water retention of coating colors can not be obtained without addition of these polymers. Furthermore, the coating runnability and the physical properties of coated paper were not also satisfied. Therefore, the objective of this study was to synthesize the water retention and flow modifiers which can improve the water retention and flow properties of coating colors. We have measured physical properties of flow modifiers and coating colors which included flow modifiers. The viscosity of flow modifiers was very low at acid pH, and rapidly increased at about pH 7, and gradually reached to equilibrium at alkali pH. Such an increase comes from the molecular weight of flow modifiers and the amount of acrylic and methacrylic acids. The viscosity of coating color containing the flow modifiers was lower than that containing CMC. However, both of them had little difference in water retention. The water-phase viscosity of synthetic modifier containing coating color was either higher or similar compared to that of CMC containing coating color. The high shear viscosity of coating colors was low. Therefore, it can be concluded that the synthetic flow modifiers are very useful for improvement of flow properties and water retentions.

Laser-induced photoacoustic spectroscopy (LIPAS), which utilizes the photothermal effect that results from nonradiative relaxation of excited state molecules, was used in the speciation analysis of the complexes of neodymium(III) and water soluble synthetic polyelectrolyte, poly methacrylic acid (PMAA), in 0.1 M $NaClO_4$ at pH of 6.0. The minimum detection limit of Nd(III) by LIPAS was $5.O{\times}10^{-6}$ M. Experiment was carried out at low concentration ratio of Nd(III) to PMAA to assure that 1 : 1 complexes predominate. The bound and free Nd(III) species were characterized by measuring nonradiative relaxation energy of the excited states $(^2GM{7/2}\;and\;^4G_{5/2})$ to the metastable state $(^4G_{3/2})$. Two species were quantified by deconvolution of the mixed spectrum using their respective reference spectra. The conditional stability constant measured by LIPAS was 5.52 L$mol^{-1}$.

The binder polymers for digital textile printing(DTP) pigment inks were prepared using miniemulsion polymerization with various monomer compositions to study effects of monomer compositions on particle size distribution, average molecular weight, Tg, and color strength and rubbing fastness of the dyed fabrics with the prepared binder based pigment ink. The monomers used were MMA(Methyl methacrylate), BA(Butyl acrylate), MAA(Methacrylic acid), NMA(N-methylol acrylamide), NEA(N-ethylol acrylamide) and the ratios of the monomers were changed. The particle size was the smallest with 136nm when the MMA to BA weight ratio was 4:16 and the largest with 290nm when the MMA, BA, MAA, NEA ratio was 2.5:17:0.25:0.25. However, the glass transition temperature was lowest with $-41.90^{\circ}C$ and the color strength and rubbing fastness of the resulting sample were the best when the MMA, BA, MAA, NEA ratio was used. This suggested that the introduction of the NEA monomer to the binder polymer for the pigment ink could be an efficient way to enhance the rubbing fastness of the DTP pigment inks present.

To improve rubbing fastness of the printed fabrics, the binder polymers for Digital Textile Printing(DTP) pigment inks were synthesized with miniemulsion polymerization using various acrylic monomers, which are MMA(Methyl methacrylate), BA(Butyl acrylate), and Self-crosslinking monomers, such as NEA(N-Ethylol acrylamide) and MAA (Methacrylic acid). The acrylic monomer compositions were varied when synthesizing the binder polymers and their particle size distributions, average molecular weights, and Tgs were investigated. The prepared binder polymers were applied to prepare Cyan, Black, Yellow and Magenta pigment ink for DTP and the prepared inks were used to dye cotton fabrics. Then, color strength, and rubbing fastness were also investigated to study the effect of the comonomer compositions of the binder polymer on the color strength and rubbing fastness of the resulting pigment inks.

In this research, the chemo-enzymatic synthesis of sorbitan methacrylate was investigated to optimize reaction conditions. Firstly, sorbitan was manufactured by sorbitol cyclic reaction in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TSA) as catalyst material. Secondly, sorbitan methacrylate was synthesized by immobilized lipase Novozyme 435 with acyl donors in t-butanol. As a result of enzymatic synthesis of sorbitan methacrylate, the conversion yield reached about $65\%$ in the condition of initial sorbitan conc. 50 g/L, enzyme content $3\%$ (w/v) , molar ratio 1:3, reaction temperature 50^{circ}C and reaction time 42 hrs using methyl methacrylate as acyl donor. Comparing with acyl donors and reaction temperature, the conversion yield reached about 18, 65 and $80\%$ with methacrylic acid, methyl methacrylate and vinyl methacrylate as acyl donor, respectively. And optimum reaction temperature was 60, 50, and 50^{circ}C, respectively

Water soluble adhesive was polymerized from butyl acrylate (BA), methyl methacrylate (MMA) and one of various functional monomers such as acrylic acid (AA), 2-hydroxylethyl methacrylate (2-HEMA), glycidyl methacrylic acid (GMA) and acrylamide (AAm). The amount of the functional monomers was 1$\sim$5 wt%/monomer. In order to improve the adhesive power, a substrate was treated using atmospheric flat plasma method. The adhesive power was improved by the addition of the functional monomers with an order of AA> 2-HEMA> GMA> AAm. The holding power of the adhesives, which is related with the thermal properties of the adhesives, increased with the amount of the functional monomers. The effectiveness in improving the holding power has an order of AA > AAm > GMA > 2-HEMA. By treating a substrate with atmospheric flat plasma method, the adhesives containing each of AA, 2-HEMA, GMA and AAm showed the increases of the final adhesion strength by 9.1, 9.4, 9.4, and 1.8%, respectively. In conclusion, the mechanical properties such as adhesive power and holding power could be controlled by introducing.
