The influence of the polarity of the spreading solvent on the properties of the monolayer of poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile)'s with various acrylonitrile contents was studied. The surface pressure - area isotherm and the apparent dipole moment - area isotherm were obtained and analyzed when the mixtures of methylene chloride and N-N-dimethylformamide used as spreading solvent. The isotherms were strongly influenced by the polarity of the solvent.

In aqueous phase, we directly prepared conducting and photoluminescent nano-structured particles by oxidation polymerization. Thiophene(PT) was initiated by $FeCl_{3}/H_{2}O_{2}$ (catalyst/oxidant) combination system. And, polydispersed core-shell poly(styrene/thiophene) and polyaniline(PANI)-coated multi core-shell polystyrene latex particles were successfully prepared by oxidative and radical polymerization. The resulting latex particles have fine improved luminescence and conductive efficiency and dispersion state due to the PT and PANI shell. Hyper functionalized nanoparticle would be expected to increase the processibility in various electrical and electro-optical fields.

The mechanical degradation of $poly(\alpha-methyl$ styrene) in several mixed solvents (chlorobenzene-n-butyl alcohol, chlorobenzene-sec-butyl alcohol, chlorobenzene-Kerosene, chlorobenzene-methylketone) was studied using the capillary flow method. The velocity constant of scission reaction (K) and the limited degree of polymerization (g) were compared at the same value of [${\eta}$], which is considered as the parameter of molecular dimension of polymers in solution. As results, (K) did not change much, even if the species and the volume fraction of poor(non-) solvents changed, while the value of (g) changed according to the species of poor (non-) solvents and the value of [${\eta}$] these results were discussed.

A series of numerical simulations on the several types of breakwaters on the foundation systems utilizing buoyancy were carried out in plane-strain conditions using the modified Cam-Clay model and the Biot's consolidation theory. Improved foundation system by the replacement of original ground with light weighted material, expandable poly-styrene (called below EPS) and several foundation systems with buoyant cells were used. From the results of numerical simulations we found that the foundation systems utilizing buoyancy are efficient to reduce the maximum consolidation settlements without reducing lateral safety.

This study investigated the strength of concrete to improve construction material with polymer cement mortar. Some mixtures composed of Styrene-Butadiene Rubber(SBR) and Ethylene Vinyl Acetate(EVA) Poly Vinyl Alcohol(PVA) were studied. The three mixtures carried out the physical, mechanical test to determine its properties which a include : compressive, flexural, bond strength test. The test results show that the compressive strength was increased at long-term age when compared to early ages for increasing polymer contents. It was found that flexural strength and bond strength became larger as polymer to cement ratio became higher.

Electrophosphorescent devices with ionomer-type hole transport layers were investigated. On top of the 3,4-ethylenedioxy thiophene:poly(4-styrene sulfonate) [PEDOT:PSS] structures, fluoropolymer interfacial layers (FPIs) with different side chain lengths were introduced. Both for the PEDOT:PSS/FPI (layered) and PEDOT:PSS (mixed) structures with soluble phosphorescent emitters, the short-side-chain FPIs showed higher efficiency. The difference in the electrical properties of the two FPIs for bipolar (light-emitting) devices was not clear, but the hole-only device clearly showed the favored hole injection at the PEDOT:PSS/FPI structure with a shorter side chain, a copolymer of tetrafluoroethylene and sulfonyl fluoride vinyl ether.

Zinc oxide (ZnO) bottom-contact thin-film transistors (TFTs) were prepared by the use of injector type atomic layer deposition. Two hybrid gate oxide systems of different polarity polymers with silicon oxide were examined with the aim of improving the properties of the transistors. The mobility and threshold voltage of a ZnO TFT with a poly(4-dimethylsilyl styrene) (Si-PS)/silicon oxide hybrid gate dielectric had values of 0.41 $cm^2/Vs$ and 24.4 V, and for polyimide/silicon oxide these values were 0.41 $cm^2/Vs$ and 24.4 V, respectively. The good hysteresis property was obtained with the dielectric of hydrophobicity. The solid output saturation behavior of ZnO TFTs was demonstrated with a $10^6$ on-off ratio.

전기영동형 전자종이 디스플레이의 새로운 소재로써 $C_{60}$(fullerene)와 같은 나노 입자를 포함하는 새로운 전기영동 입자를 제조하였다. 본 연구에서는 안정제로 poly(vinyl pyrrolidone)(PVP)를 사용하여 fullerene을 포함하는 styrene emulsion을 안정화 한 후 라디칼 중합을 통해 fullerene이 포함된 polystyrene microemulsion particles을 제조 합으로써 입자의 분산안정성을 높이고 전기영동에 따른 입자의 움직임을 최적화하도록 하였다. 이 실험에서는 fullerene의 양에 따라 제조된 입자의 크기와 입자 분포를 관찰하였다. 입자의 크기와 입자 분포는 주사형 전자현미경 (SEM) 을 이용하여 확인하였다. 또한 fullerene-PS 입자의 구조 분석과 특성평가를 위해서 FT-IR를 측정하였고, 입자의 열적 성질을 위해 TGA를 측정하였다.

In order to suppress a repulsive interfacial energy between hydrophilic clay and hydrophobic polymer matrix in preparing a polymer/clay nanocomposite, a third component of amphiphilic nature such as poly($\varepsilon$-caprolactone) (PCL) was introduced into the model system of styrene-acrylonitrile copolymers (SAN)/Na-montmorillonite. Once $\varepsilon$-caprolactone was polymerized in the presence of Na-rnontmorillonite, the successful ring-opening polymerization of $\varepsilon$-caprolactone and the well-developed exfoliated structure of PCL/Na-montmorillonite mixture were confirmed, Thereafter, SAN was melt-mixed with PCL/Na-montmorillonite nanocomposite, which resulted in that SAN matrix and PCL fraction were completely miscible to form homogeneous mixture with retention of the exfoliated state of Na-montmorillonite, exhibiting that PCL effectively stabilizes the repulsive polymer/clay interface and contributes the improvement of mechanical properties of the nanocomposites.

주로 탄화수소화합물로 구성된 EPS(Expended poly styrene)는 뛰어난 단열성능, 경제성, 건식공법의 시공편리성으로 단열재로 많이 사용되지만 화재에 취약한 단점이 있다. 최근 EPS패널의 다양한 난연화를 통해 난연EPS패널제품이 개발되고 있고 시장에서의 사용이 증가되고 있다. 그러나 가짜 난연EPS제품의 사용이 사회적 문제가 되고 있는 것도 현실이다. 본 연구에서는 난연EPS와 일반EPS가 성분이 다른점을 이용하여, 현장에서 시공되고 있는 시료의 진위여부 판단을 위해 X-선형광분석기(XRF)를 사용한 원소분석을 시도하였다. 분석결과 매우 간단한 방법으로 시료의 진위여부를 확인할 수 있었으며, 따라서 현장에서 사용될 수 있는 분석법으로 적용가능성에 대하여 고찰하였다.
