In this study, TAPEH (t-amyl peroxy 2-ethyl hexanoate) was selected for the reaction initiator which is a core factor for developing acrylic polyol binder. Tone M100 (caprolactone acrylate), 4HBA (4-hydroxy butyl acrylate), and 2HEMA (2-hydroxy ethyl methacrylate) were used for hydroxy-monomers. To check the applicability of raw materials mentioned above into the binders of 2 components acrylic polyurethane paint and reduce the VOC, the reactivity and film performance by different kinds of aliphatic polyisocyanate hardeners which are already generalized were reviewed. As the Tin-based catalyst has been regulated, the comparison test of reactivity and performance between the conventional catalyst and non-toxic metal catalyst recommended as the alternative was conducted as well. As a result, we were able to obtain the basic data which are necessary for applying 2 components high solid polyurethane paint and also reached a conclusion that it can be applied for developing new paints in terms of high performance, workability and environmental care.

Cement-reinforcing carbon fibers were surface-modified with $O_2$, $H_2O$, acrylic acid, diaminocyclohexane plasmas and their effects were investigated. Hydrophobic surfaces with water contact angles of $75{\sim}80^{\circ}$ were changed to hydrophilic surfaces. The water contact angles were reduced down to lower than $10^{\circ}$. As a result, the fiber's hygroscopic property and dispersion in water were improved. Also, Zeta potential of the fiber in water was changed from a negative value to positive values. As a result, adhesion with cement that had a negative Zeta potential was improved up to 57~124% through increased electrostatic interaction.

The novel chitosan-based thermosensitive hydrogels were prepared as control-releasing drug carriers. N-carboxyethyl chitosan (ACS) was synthesized by microwave heating for 1 h through Michael addition of CS to acrylic acid in a grafting yield of 52.97%, which was proved to be a faster and more efficient way than ordinary methods. 5-Fu was modified with formaldehyde to synthesize N,N'-Bis(hydroxymethyl)-5-fluorouracil (5-Fu-OH). Then an esterification was performed using ACS and 5-Fu-OH to give 5-Fu-ACS. The new thermosensitive hydrogels were prepared by adding sodium glycerophosphate to the solution of compounds under a certain constant temperature. Simultaneously, the hydrogels' swelling rate, in vitro drug release rate and thermosensitive were studied, and found that the 5-Fu-ACS composite hydrogel had more excellent releasing effect, higher drug loading and better thermosensitive.

In this paper, the properties of the cement mortar modified with styrene acrylic ester copolymer were investigated. Expanded vermiculite as lightweight aggregate was used for making the polymer modified mortar test specimens. To study the effect of polymer-cement ratio and vermiculite-cement ratio on various properties, specimens were prepared by varying the polymer-cement and vermiculite-cement ratios. Tests of physical properties such as density, water absorption, thermal conductivity, three-point flexure and compressive tests were made on the specimens. Furthermore, a coupled thermal-structural finite element model of an entire corner wall was modelled in order to study the best material configuration. The wall is composed by a total of 132 bricks of $120{\times}242{\times}54$ size, joined by means of a contact-bonded model. The use of advanced numerical methods allows us to obtain the optimum material properties. Finally, comparisons of polymer-cement and vermiculite-cement ratios on physical properties are given and the most important conclusions are exposed.

Self-emulsifiable polyethylene (PE) wax was prepared using acrylic acid grafted PE wax with potassium hydroxide and various emulsifiers for the economic production of PE wax emulsion. Modification reaction completion was confirmed that the peak from carbonyl group of acrylic acid disappeared and the new peak from carboxylic acid salts appeared in the FT-IR (Fourier transform infrared) spectrum data. Self-emulsifiable properties of the modified PE wax were investigated by the emulsion size and the stability of wax emulsion without any additional emulsifiers. According to self-emulsifiable properties, the emulsion size and stability were varied on the concentration and structure of the emulsifier. The greater emulsion concentration and hydrophilic poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) characteristics of the emulsifier resulted in the smaller emulsion size and better emulsion stability. In addition, the use of emulsifiers mixture was more effective to obtain smaller size and uniform distribution of emulsion than that of single emulsifier in PE wax modification reaction. Especially, modified PE wax with OAE-5 and LAE-15 emulsifiers mixture shows excellent performance in terms of the smallest emulsion size ($4.34{\mu}m$) and emulsion stability.

UV curable acryl resin, pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs), are used in many different parts in the world. In particular, PSAs has been used in the wafer manufacturing process of semiconductor industry. As wafers become much thinner, UV curable PSAs require more proper adhesion performance. In this study, acrylic PSAs containing hydroxyl groups were synthesized using monomers of 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate, styrene monomer and 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate. Isocyanate modified UV curable PSAs were then prepared by the adduct reaction that facilitates the UV curing property via controlling the amount of methacryloyloxyehtyl isocyanate. The proper adhesion performance and UV curing behavior of UV curable PSAs with various hydroxyl values were studied, and experimental conditions were then optimized to raise the efficiency of wafer manufacturing process. It was found that in case of using the equivalent ratio of 1 : 1 isocyanate hardener used in the UV curable PSAs, the peel strength before the UV curing process decreased as the amount of hydroxyl groups increased in the PSAs. The peeling adhesive strength was also decreased with increasing UV dose due to high curing characteristics.

This study presents the preparation of double emulsions in a poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)-based microfluidic device. To improve the wettability of hydrophilic continuous phase onto a hydrophobic PDMS microchannel, the surface was modified with 3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate (TPM) and then sequentially reacted with acrylic acid monomer solution, which produced selective covalent bonding between acrylic acids and methacrylate groups. For the proof of selective surface modification, tolonium chloride solution was used to identify the modified region and we confirmed that the approach was successfully performed. When water containing 0.5% w/w sodium dodecyl sulfate and 1% w/w Span80 with hexadecane were loaded into the selectively modified microfluidic channels, we can produce stable double emulsion. Based on the spreading coefficients, we predict the morphology of double emulsions. Our proposed method efficiently produces monodisperse double emulsions having 48.5 ${\mu}m$(CV:1.6%) core and 65.1 ${\mu}m$ (CV:1.6%) shell. Furthermore, the multiple emulsions having different numbers of core were easily prepared by simple control of flow rates.
