Calix[6]arenes are selectively dialkylated at the lower rim and further functionalized by the aminomethylation and Claisen Rearrangement reactions. Dialkylation was conducted by the reaction of calix[6]arene and alkyl halides such as benzyl bromide, allyl bromide, ethyl bromoacetate, propyl bromide, and methyl iodide under the carefully controlled reaction conditions. Aminomethylation was carried out with the treatment of disubstituted calix[6]arene and secondary amine in the presence of formaldehyde. Claisen rearrangement reaction of the O-diallylcalix[6]arene produced the p-diallylcalix[6]arene.

탄소나노튜브는 우수한 기계적 특성, 전기적 및 자기적 성질 뿐만 아니라 나노 크기의 직경 및 높은 종횡비를 나타낸다. 이는 고강도 고분자 복합체의 이상적인 보강제로 사용할 수 있다. 기능성이 부과된 탄소나노튜브는 기능성 재료 및 복합재료의 제조와 같은 분야에서 아주 유력한 재료로 믿어진다. 탄소나노튜브-고분자 복합체는 탄소나노튜브의 우수한 기능성과 고분자의 우수한 가공성을 가질 것으로 기대된다. 그러나, 탄소나노튜브는 보통 반 델 바알스 작용에 의한 안정화된 번들을 형성하기 때문에 고분자 기지에 배열이나 분산이 상당히 어렵다. 탄소나노튜브 강화복합체의 제조에서 가장 큰 이슈는 고분자내에 탄소나노튜브의 효과적인 분산이며, 기지내에 탄소나노튜브의 배열과 양의 조절이다. 고분자 기지내에 탄소나노튜브의 분산은 용액혼합, 벌크 혼합, 용융혼합, 즉시 고분자화 반응 및 탄소나노튜브의 화학적 기능화 등과 같은 몇 가지 방법이 있다. 본 논평에서는 이들 방법과 고성능 탄소나노튜브-고분자 복합체의 제조에 대하여 서술하고자 한다.

그래핀 나노플레이트렛(GNP)은 현시점에서 가장 산업화 적용에 가까운 그래핀으로 알려져 있다. 하지만 현재 GNP는 그 우수한 생산량에도 불구하고 응집현상과 물리화학적 불균질성으로 인해 복합재에서의 강화재로 사용되기에는 제한이 존재한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 GNP의 문제 해결을 위해 산업화 레벨의 대량생산 공정으로 확장 가능한 비공유 기능기화공정을 이용하여 GNP를 기능기화하였다. 본 기능기화 공정은 저렴한 물질로 알려진 멜라민을 사용하여 GNP의 응집현상을 방지하는 동시에 극성 용매내에서의 분산성을 향상시켰다. 뿐만 아니라 기능기화된 GNP의 분산성의 차이를 이용한 염석법 공정을 적용, GNP를 크기 별로 정제하였다. 이처럼 본 연구는 언급한 기능기화와 분리 공정을 기반으로 하여 GNP의 복합소재/부품 산업 응용을 위한 전략을 제시하였다.

Graphene, consisting of a single layer of carbon in a two-dimensional lattice, has been emerging as a fascinating material with many unique physical, chemical and mechanical properties. In this study, graphenes were prepared by a chemical method. To develop high performance polymer nanocomposites reinforced by graphenes, adequate dispersion of the fillers and strong interfacial bonding between the fillers and the polymer matrix are essential. The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of introducing amine groups on the surfaces of graphenes. FT-IR spectroscopy, SEM were used to confirm the functionalization. Epoxy nanocomposites comprising the graphenes were prepared and their characteristics were investigated by DSC, DMA and TMA. Fracture surfaces of the nanocomposites were investigated by SEM. The functionalized graphenes induced strong interfacial bonding than the pristine graphenes and resulted in considerable improvements in the performance of the nanocomposites.

Interfacing functional materials with electrical or biological systems is of prime importance in terms of expanding applicative fields and obtaining high performances of devices. Herein, I report the functionalization of graphenes through supramolecular assembly and their electrochemical applications into fuel cells, supercapacitors, and biosensor devices. The solution processable nanohybridization of graphenes by functional materials such as ionic liquids, polyelectrolytes, block copolymers, and biomaterials, described herein would pave the way to obtain high performances of flexible energy and biosensor devices as well as to overcome the existing technology barriers.

In this work, we report the use of caffeine as an alternative source of nitrogen to successfully dope graphene (quaternary 400.6 eV and pyridinic at 398 eV according XPS), as well as the growth of silver nanowires (in-situ) in the surface of nitrogen doped graphene (NG) sheets. We used the improved graphene oxide method (IGO), chemical reduction of graphene oxide (GOx), and impregnation with caffeine as source of nitrogen for doping and subsequently, silver nanowires (NW) grow in the surface by the reduction of silver salts in the presence of NG, achieving a numerous of growth of NW in the graphene sheets. As supporting experimental evidence, the samples were analyzed using conventional characterization techniques: SEM-EDX, XRD, FT-IR, micro RAMAN, TEM, and XPS.

Chemical modification of magnetic nanoparticles(MNPs) with functional polymers has recently gained a great deal of attention because of the potential application of MNPs to in vivo and in vitro biotechnology. The potential use of MNPs as capturing agents and sensitive biosensors has been intensively investigated because MNPs exhibit good separation-capability and binding-specificity for biomolecules after suitable surface functionalization processes. In this work, we demonstrate an efficient method for the surface modification of MNPs, by combining surface-initiated polymerization and the subsequent conjugation of the biologically active molecules. The polymeric shells of non-biofouling poly(poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate)(pPEGMA) were introduced onto the surface of MNPs by surface-initiated, atom transfer radical polymerization(SI-ATRP). With biotin as a model of biologically active compounds, the polymeric shells underwent successful post-functionalization via activation of the polymeric shells and bioconjugation of biotin. The resulting MNP hybrids showed a biospecific binding property for streptavidin and could be separated by magnet capture.

Monmorillonite 클레이를 물을 분산제로 이용하여 3-aminopropyltriethoxy 실란 기능화를 실시하였다. 실란의 그라프트 여부는 FT-IR을 이용하여 정성분석하였다. 실란의 농도가 증가함에 따라 흡착/삽입 비가 감소함을 알 수 있었다. X-ray를 이용하여 평균 d-간격을 측정한 결과 초기에는 실란농도가 증가하다 다소 감소하였다. 기능화 공정온도의 영향을 살펴본 결과 온도가 증가함에 따라 화학적인 그라프트가 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

The direct synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with acidic and basic active sites is challenging due to the introduction of functional groups by post-functionalization method often jeopardize the framework integrity. Herein, we report the direct synthesis of acid-base bifunctional MOFs with tuning acid-base strength. Employing modulated hydrothermal (MHT) approach, microporous MOFs named $UiO-66-NH_2$ was prepared. Through the ring-opening reaction of 1,3-propanesultone with amino group, $UiO-66-NH_2-SO_3H-type$ catalysts can be obtained. The synthesized catalysts were well characterized and their catalytic performances were evaluated in one-pot glucose to 5-HMF conversion. Results revealed the acid-base bi-functional catalyst possessed high activity and excellent stability. This work provides a general and economically viable approach for the large-scale synthesis of acid-base bi-functional MOFs for their potential use in catalysis field.

The mechanical properties of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs)-reinforced epoxy matrix composites with different weight percentages of MWNTs have been investigated. Also, the morphologies and failure behaviors of the composites after mechanical tests are studied by SEM and TEM analyses. As a result, the addition of MWNTs into the epoxy matrix has a remarkable effect on the mechanical properties. And the fracture surfaces of MWNTs/epoxy composites after flexural strength tests show different failure mechanisms for the composites under different nanotube contents. Also, a chemical functionalization of MWNTs can be a useful tool to improve the dispersion of the nanotubes in an epoxy system, resulting in increasing the mechanical properties of the composite materials studied.
