We have studied electro-optical characteristics of fringe-field switching (FFS) mode with high $d{\Delta}n$ according to the electrode position. In this device, the fringe-electric field drives the LCs to rotate so that the dielectric torque is electrode-positional dependent, which results in electrode-position dependency in the LC's rotating angle. We confirmed polarization microscope image and chromaticity diagram at the different electrode position with LC that have high $d{\Delta}n$. Since the FFS mode is influenced by horizontal and vertical electric field, the FFS mode modulates light using both phase retardation and polarization rotation effect, which had already been verified with previous studies. However, from another point of view, tight modulation of FFS mode has been demonstrated by performing experiment and calculated simulation at the high $d{\Delta}n$ LC cell.

The polymer concrete is drawing a strong interest as high-performance materials in the construction industry. Resins using recycled PET offer the possibility of a lower source cost of materials for making useful polymer concrete products. Also the recycling of PET in polymer concrete would help solve some of the solid waste problems posed by plastics and save energy. Polymer concrete beams using unsaturated polyester resins based on recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic waste were used in our study for grasping its structural behavior of static and fatigue. As a result of static test, Compression stress distribution of Polymer concrete indicates linear behavior such as triangles. Although polymer concrete is high strength materials, its ductility capacity is excellent. From the fatigue test results, There was almost no difference on flexural characteristics between before and after fatigue loading. Therefore, recycled PET polymer concrete remains excellent structural ability after fatigue loading.

We developed a new device structure using anisotropic phase separation from liquid crystal (LC) and polymer composite materials using UV intensity variation and polymer wetting properties. In the device, the LC molecules are isolated in pixels where LCs are surrounded by the inter-pixel vertical polymer walls and the horizontal polymer films on the upper substrate. These devices show very good mechanical stability against external pressure. The electro-optic characteristics and the mechanical stability of the devices are discussed in view of the flexible display applications.

Concrete structures need repair and rehabilitation due to functional deficiencies such as cracks, scaling and spalling. Loss of section such as spalling is caused by corrosion of reinforcing bar, fire, temperature change, poor design and etc. This study aims to examine the characteristics of polymer(epoxy)and polymer-cement(latex) for repair materials and to provide the proper repair scheme through static and fatigue tests. Totally 12 beams were tested. Results from static and fatigue tests of beams repaired with polymer and polymer-cement were compared.

Ionic liquids (ILs) are collecting keen interests as an advanced substituent of electrolyte solution as well as novel solvents. In the present talk, I will introduce some strategies to fix IL structure on polymer chains to prepare polar polymers with low glass transition temperature. Namely, cationic, anionic, and zwitterionic monomers have been prepared, and they have been homopolymerized or copolymerized to prepare polymer electrolytes with different properties. The polymers themselves showed very poor ionic conductivity, but it was improved by suitable spacer between charged site and main chain. Other unique characteristics of functional ILs and new polymerized ionic liquids will also be mentioned.

Many researchers have discussed how membrane performance can be enhanced through an understanding of polymer science and engineering. The understandings of transport in porous membrane are used to achieve the isolation of certain components from mixtures. Particular emphasis is placed on the applicability of membrane separations for the isolation of macromolecules[1]. An awareness of membrane structure characteristics is required for the rational design of membranes for specific and/or new applications. This understanding rests on the knowledge of fields such as polymer thermodynamics[2], polymer adsorption [3, 4], diffusion in polymers[5, 6], reaction mechanism[7], and the dynamic behavior[8, 9] of polymer in porous membrane.

We report a microcapsule-based electronic ink display technique, containing hollow titania particles which were prepared via a complex coacervation method using gelatin and gum arabic. In order to reduce density mismatch between nanoparticels and dielectric medium, hollow titania particles were introduced. Microcapsules were then prepared using gelatin to improve the elasticity of the microcapsule wall and their electrophoretic characteristics were $investigated^1$

A topological theory has been introduced to extend the theory of Balsara and Nauman to evaluate the entropy of in homogeneous polymer solutions. Previous theories have considered only the terms about the displacement of junction points, while the present theory has obtained a more complete expression for the entropy by adding the topological interaction terms between strands. There have been predicted the characteristics of the spinodal decomposition and the interfacial tension of polymer solutions from the resultant expression. It is exposed that the theoretically predictive values show good agreement with the experimental data for polymer solutions.

In the present investigation, ceramic PZT and Polymer were prepared. The former is Pb[(Sn1/2Sb1/2)0.1 Ti0.27Zr0.63]O3 including Pb(Sn1/2Sb1/2)O3 with good pyroelectric effect, and the latter PVA(Poly Vinyl Alcohol) with good plasticity. Then, they were fabricated to be flat by using 0-3 connectivity which is rather easily fabricated and capable of making thin film, extending surface area among the connectivities. Such were applied to the sample as variation of intensity of poling field, poling temperature, volume fraction between ceramic and polymer. Then dielectric constant, pyroelectric current, pyroelectric coefficient and the figure of merit were measured. And then their effects on pyroelectric characteristics were observed.
