Conductive polymer blends and composites are widely used for different safety application such as electrostatic charge dissipation(ESD), electromagnetic interference(EMI) shielding, electrostatic prevention and safety chemical sensor. In order to prepare a impedance-type humidity sensor that is durable at high humidities and high temperature, electically conductive polymer blends based on diallyldimethylammonium chloride(DADMAC) and epoxy were prepared in this study. The polymer blends type conductive ionomer exhibits reaction each other DADMAC and epoxy in FT-IR and DSC analysis. The blends material was traced by new peak at 1600cm-1 and appeard improvement of thermal resistance by melting point shift. Alumina substrate was deposited a pair of gold electrodes by screen printing. The blend material were spin-coated with a thin film type on the surface of alumina substrate. The polymer bleld type sensor exhibits a linear impedance increasing better than DADMAC coated humidity sensor. Also it shows good sensitivity, low hysteresis and durability against high humidity.

Water-based acrylic sizing agent(GSW-7000) was prepared by emulsion copolymerization for sizing polyester yarns. Ammonium salt version of the acrylic sizing agent offered greater abrasion resistance to weaving forces and water resistance for water jet loom. GSW-7000 exhibited proper viscosity for sizing, high penetration ability and excellent adhesion to polyester yarn. It was possible to reduce the size pick-up to 70~80% of ordinary solvent-based sizing agent due to excellent adhesive strength of GSW-7000.

Poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc)/poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/montmorillonite (MMT) clay nanocomposite microspheres with a core/shell structure have been developed via a suspension polymerization approach. In order to prepare the PVAc/ MMT and PVAc/PVA/MMT nanocomposite microspheres, which are promising precursor of PVA/MMT nanocomposite microspheres, suspension polymerization of vinyl acetate with organophilic MMT and heterogeneous saponification were conducted. A quaternary ammonium salt, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, was mixed with the MMT in the monomer phase prior to the suspension polymerization. The rate of conversion decreased with an increase in MMT concentration. The incorporation of MMT into the PVAc was verified by FT-IR spectroscopy. Organic vinyl acetate monomers were intercalated into the interlayer regions of organophilic clay hosts and followed by suspension polymerization. Partially saponified PVA/MMT nanocomposite microspheres with a core/shell structure were successfully prepared by heterogeneous saponification.

Stable slurries of YSZ in aqueous suspension with added polymer dispersants, namely, poly-methacrylic acid ammonium salt (PMMA), poly-acrylic acid (PAA) and poly-acrylic-co-maleic acid (PAMA), were mixed with the monomolecular dispersants citric acid and oxalic acid. The dispersion properties of the suspension were investigated using PSA, viscosity, sedimentation, and FT-IR. The polymer dispersants and monomolecular dispersants were attached to the YSZ surface by the carboxylic group, as shown by the FTIR results. A stabilized aqueous suspension was obtained when the polymer dispersant and citric acid were mixed and compared to the use of citric acid alone as a dispersant agent. When the polymer dispersant and citric acid were mixed and milled through attrition milling, there was a smaller particle size compared to when the polymer dispersant alone was used as a dispersant agent. This study determined that the particle size of the mixed dispersant was affected by the properties of the monomolecular dispersant and that the stability of the suspension was affected by the polymer dispersant. However, when slurries of YSZ were mixed with oxalic acid, the particle bridging behavior was the result of the high degree of viscosity and the small sedimentation height.

The polysaccharide, (1\longrightarrow5)-$\alpha$-D-ribofuranan, was synthesized by a cationic ring-opening polymerization of 1,4-anhydro-2,3-di-O-benzyl-$\alpha$-D-ribopyranose with the aid of boron trifluoride etherate and subsequent debenzylation. This polysaccharide catalyzed the hydrolysis of ethyl p-nitrophenyl phosphate, uridylyl(3'\longrightarrow5')uridine ammonium salt, and 4-tert-butylcatechol cyclic phosphate N-methyl pyridinium. The polymer also catalyzed the cleavage of nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). The hydrolysis of ethyl p-nitrophenyl phosphate in the presence of the polymer was accelerated by 1.5 ${\times}$ 10$^3$ times relative to the uncatalyzed reaction. The catalytic activity was attributable to the vic-cis-diols of the riboses being located inside the active center that is formed by polymer chain folding; these diols form hydrogen bonds with two phosphoryl oxygen atoms of the phosphates so as to activate the phosphorus atoms to be attacked by nucleophile ($H_2O$).

The organic solvent mixture of 5 % trioctylamine and 5 % n-octyl alcohol in n-hexane could be loaded with tungsten to 62 g $WO_3$/1 whereas the amine alone could be loaded only to 37 g $WO_3$/1. Molecular interaction between amine and tungstate ion during the solvent extraction process and the synergistic effect of alcohol in enhancing the solubility of the amine-tungstate complex have been studied by NMR spectroscopy. Tungsten has been shown to be extracted as a polymeric tungstate ion into the organic phase to form a trioctyl ammonium polytungstate salt, which was more stabilized in the hydrocarbon medium by interacting with alcohol via hydrogen bonding between the tungstate ion and alcohol.

The optimal culture conditions on bacteriocin producing of Lactobacillus sp. FF-3 isolated from Korean Dongchimi, were studied for enhancing its production with regard to environmental and nutritional factors. The optimal cultivation time, initial pH and temperature were 21 hours, pH 7.0 and 30∼37$^{\circ}C$ respectively. Optimal compositions of culture medium for bacteriocin production were glucose 3% as carbon source, tryptone 4% as nitrogen source, and manganese sulfate 0.005% as inorganic salt with other basal components. The maximum antimicrobial activity was 484 BU/mL under the optimal culture condition.

Bretylium tosylate is a quaternary ammonium compound used for the treatment of ventricular fibrilation in humans. It is advantageous to other cationic compound in the study of biliary excretion in that negligible amount is bound to plasma protein and metabolite is not likely is to be formed. Some researchers reported that the formation of ion-pair complex caused to increase the lipothilicity of cationic compound. The partition of bretylium between water and organic phase was increased with the addition of sodium taurodeoxycholate. Also sensitive gas chromatographical assay procedure using flame ionization detector was studied. This procedure can detect as low as 0.1 mg/ml using 0.1 ml biological sample, but contamination by previous injection is the major problem of this method.

Degradation of $Zn_3N_2$ films is studied by using several analytical techniques. Polycrystalline $Zn_3N_2$ films prepared by reactie rf magnetron sputtering are kept in the air. Electrical and optical properties are measured by using van der Pauw technique and double-beam spectrometry. Structure and chemical bonding states are studied by X-ray diffraction(XRD), Fourier transfer infrared ray spectroscopy(FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron specroscopy (XPS). Significant differences are observed in optical properties between the degraded film and the ZnO film. XRD analysis reveals that the degraded film contains very small ZnO grains because very weak and broad ZnO peaks are observed. XPS and FT-IR measurements reveal the formation of $Zn(OH)_2$ in the degraded film. The existence of N-H bonds in degraded films is exhibited from the N 1s spectra. $Zn_3N_2$ change into the mixture of ZnO, $Zn(OH)_2$ and an ammonium salt.

In an attempt to develop a non-aqueous liquid formulation of practically insoluble biphenyl dimethyl dicarboxylate (DDB), dissolution and permeation studies were performed. Various non-aqueous DDB solutions were formulated and filled into empty hard capsules. Dissolution rates of a new formulation were compared with those of commercially available DDB preparations using one and eight dose units. Dissolution rates after 2 hr of DDB tablets (DDB 25 mg), hard capsules (DDB 7.5 mg) and soft capsules (DDB 7.5 mg) on market and new formulation (DDB 7.5 mg) were 6.3, 15.0, 84.5 and 98.0%, respectively. Higher doses (8 units) resulted in a supersaturation within one hr of dissolution, and dissolved amounts were reduced markedly. Due to the saturation and precipitation, a directly proportional dose-dissolution relationship was not observed. The addition of copolyvidone and/or glycyrrhizic acid ammonium salt to DDB solution in polyethylene glycol 300 and 400 inhibited the formation of precipitates during dissolution and markedly enhanced the rabbit duodenal permeation of DDB. From the site-specific gastrointestinal permeation studies, it was found that permeation rates of DDB after mixing of non-aqueous DDB solutions with aqueous buffered solutions were faster in the order of $rectal\;<\;colonic\;{\risingdotseq}\;ileal\;{\risingdotseq}\;duodenal\;<\;jejunal\;<\;gastric$.
