1. INTRODUCTION : Polyimides containing siloxane moiety(poly(imide siloxane), or polysiloxaneimide) have been synthesized because of their some merits over polyimide itseft. Polyimides have excellent thermal and mechanical properties but their poor solubility and processibility in their fullly imidized form give disadvantages in applications. Incorporation of siloxane units make it possible to increase solubility and processibility, and also impart impact resistance, low moisture uptake, low dielectric constant, thermo-oxidative resistance, good adhesion properties to substrate and etc.. Incorporation methods of siloxane groups into the polyimide was mainly copolymerization or terpolymerization between oligomeric dimethylsiloxane and aromatic dianhydride. A few methods of introducing siloxane units in functional groups of polyimide was reported. In our laboratory poly(amideimide siloxane) and poly(imide siloxane) were prepared and the study about their thermal kinetics was performed. In separation membrane area, polysiloxaneimides was utilized in pervaporation and gas separation. Polyimides in gas separation show high selectivity and very low permeability, and introduction of siloxane segments increase permeability with low decrease in selectivity. We aimed to introduce silicone segments into poly(amic acid) state and synthesize polymer partially imidized, and also show the gas separation characteristics of the synthesized polymer.

Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) exhibit both elastomeric behaviors at used temperature range and melt processibility. Polyamide based thermoplastic elastomers (TPAEs) are segmented block copolymers with hard blocks consisting of polyamide segments, while the soft blocks usually consist of flexible segments having a low glass transition temperature. The TPAE is one of the engineering TPEs possessing high thermal stability, excellent mechanical performances, chemical resistance and excellent processibility. And they showed wide range of physical and functional properties depending upon the structure of each segment and their relative contents and the hybridization with various inorganic particles. In this review, synthesis, properties, and possible applications of TPAEs are summarized.

Purpose: To improve glasses temple's insert processibility of CA/PEG blend, triacetin with higher specific heat values in the processing temperature range is used as second plasticizer. Methods: The total amount of plasticizer is fixed at 30 wt% by CA. To determine optimal CA/PEG/triacetin blend for glasses frame, blends with different composition ratio were examined by various analysis: thermal properties, mechanical properties, glossiness. Results: Specific heat of the CA/PEG blend increased as the content of triacetin. In CA/PEG/triacetin blends, as triacetin concentration is increased, glass transition temperature is decreased and heat conservation rate of composites is increased. Furthermore, CA/PEG/triacetin blend exhibited higher mechanical properties and similar gloss characterization with CA/PEG blend. Conclusions: It is possible to improve the processibility inserting metal support to CA temple through varying the weight ratio of PEG/triacetin. The extruded sheets of CA/PEG/triacetin blend had better glossiness and mechanical properties than those of CA/PEG blend.

This study was performed to examine the processibility aptitude for the addition of Dobyeong to pigmented rice bran extract. Dobyeong from pigmented rice was less bulky and coarser than Dobyeong-added pigmented bran extract. The viscosity and degree of retrogradation in Dobyeong-added Pigmented bran extract were lower than Dobyeong from pigmented rice, indicating that the inhibitory action of retrogradation was higher in Dobyeong-added pigmented bran extract. The scores for springiness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness were increased in Dobyeong-added pigmented bran extract. Dobyeong-added pigmented bran extract showed a decreased natural flavor of pigmented rice and degree of retrogradation, but had higher scores in color values. Dobyeong-added pigmented bran extract was more acceptable in sensory evaluation. Based on these results, the use of rice-added pigmented bran extract instead of pigmented rice in rice-processed food has advantageous effects in terms of the palatability of polished rice and phytochemicals of pigmented non-polished rice. This study will help develop new health-promoting rice products.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are increasingly attracting scientific and industrial interest because of their outstanding characteristics, such as a high Young's modulus and tensile strength, low density, and excellent electrical and thermal properties. The incorporation of CNTs into polymer matrices greatly improves the electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties of the materials. Surface modification of CNTs can improve their processibility and dispersion within the composites. This paper aims to review the surface modification of CNTs, processing technologies, and mechanical and electrical properties of CNT-based epoxy composites.

Blending Is cheap and leads to new thermoplastics, many properties which can be predicted from those of the components. Due to the incompatibility of their components, most blends feature coarse phase morphologies with weak interfaces between the phases. Consequently the blends are brittle. Thermoplastic elastomers which have two kinds of segments in the chain have flexible(soft) and rigid(hard) segments and exhibit a unique combination of strength, flexibility, and processibility.

To provide guidelines and a basic understanding of static and continuous zone drawing processes, we propose two different mathematical models in terms of the processing conditions and material parameters. Although the models are not finely tuned, because of assumptions made, they are still useful for the analysis of the process and for predicting the processibility.

There have been many efforts to utilize the outstanding properties of graphene for macroscopic applications such as transparent conducting films useful for flexible/stretchable electronics. However, the lack of efficient synthesis, transfer, and doping methods limited the scale and the quality needed for the practical production of graphene films. In this presentation, we introduce ultra-large scale (~30 inch) synthesis and roll-to-roll transfer of graphene films showing excellent electrical and physical properties suitable for practical applications. Considering the outstanding scalability/processibility of roll-to-roll and CVD methods and the extraordinary flexibility/conductivity of graphene films, we expect the commercial production and application electrodes replacing the use of ITO can be realized in near future.

Nano-composite solders have been studied to improve the properties of Pb-free solder joints. The nanoparticles in the composite solders were carbon nanotubes(CNTs), metals (Ag, Ni, Cr, etc.), ceramics (SiC, $ZrO_2$, $TiB_2$, etc.). To fabricate the nano-composite solders, mechanical mixing methods and in-situ fabrication method has been used for well-dispersed nano phase. The characteristic properties of the nano-composite solders were high creep resistance, low undercooling, low IMC growth rate and fine microstructures. More researches on the nano-composite solders are required to improve the processibility and the reliability of the nano-composite solder joints.

Epoxy resins have been widely used for many applications along with good processibility. However, epoxy resin systems have poor hot/wet performance properties and brittleness after resin curing and have limited to apply for environmental resistant materials. In order to improve the toughness of epoxy resin, this review article deals with incorporation method of rubber and high performance thermoplastics into the matrix resin. In addition, molecular design of epoxy resin and modification of thermoplastic have been introduced for improving hot/wet properties of epoxy resin.
