A series of poly(1,4-phenylene terephthalates) with pendant NLO chromophores was prepared by the solution polycondensation of 2,5-NLO chromophore substituted terephthalic acid with hydroquinone. The polymers obtained gave satisfactory NMR and elemental analysis results when taking into account their expected structures and the inherent viscosity value proved the polymeric character of all polymers. DSC, optical polarizing microscopy and WAXS studies revealed that none of these polymers exhibited liquid crystalline mesophases. Preliminary results on NLO properties of these polymers showed a surprisingly large second harmonic signal relative to a Y-cut quartz plate.

순수 N-(4-nitrophenyl)-(L)-prolinol (NPP)와 NPP를 곁가지로 갖는 poly(methyl metharcrylate) (PMMA) 및 poly(p-phenlene terephthalates) (PPT) 고분자계의 제 1차 초편극도 $\beta$를 전기장 인가 제 2고조파 발생(EFISHG)방법과 hyper-Rayleigh 산란(HRS) 방법으로 측정하여 비교하였다. 1,1,2,2,-tetrachloroethane 용액속의 순수 NPP와 NPP-PMMA 경우, 두 방법으로 구한 $\beta$측정값은 실험오차 이내에서 유사하였다. 그러나 1,1,2,2,-tetrachloroethane 용액속의 HNPP-PPT 고분자 경우 $\beta$측정 결과는 순수 NPP에 비하여 EFISHG에서는 9.7배 증대되고 HRS에서는 2.4배 증대되었다. 이 결과는 견고한 고분자 주사슬에 비선형 광 발색단을 곁가지로 갖는 고분자계에서는 직류 전기장속에서 발색단들이 고분자 2차 비선형 특성에 상호 보강적으로 기여하여 극성 고분자 사슬에서와 같이 증대된 것으로 해석하였다.

The feasibility of waste concrete as a catalyst for the effective pyrolysis of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) was examined using thermogravimetric (TG) and pyrolyzer-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) analyses. TG analysis results indicated that the maximum decomposition temperature of PET is not altered by the use of waste concrete, showing similar values (407 ℃ and 408 ℃ at 5 ℃/min). Meanwhile, the volatile product distribution data obtained from the Py-GC/MS analysis revealed that the use of waste concrete promoted the deoxygenation reaction via converting the oxygen containing products such as benzoic acids, benzoates, and terephthalates to valuable deoxygenated aromatic hydrocarbons including benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and styrene. This suggests that the waste concrete can be used as a potential catalyst for the production of valuable aromatic hydrocarbons from PET pyrolysis.

비선형광학(NLO) 곁가지형 고분자계 N-(4-nitrophenul)-(L)-prolinol-poly (p-phenylene terephthalates)로 제작된 박막의 분자 배향거동을 제2 고조파발생(SHG)의 비선형광응답을 사용하여 연구하였다. 새로운 펄스 corona 배향 방법으로 NLO 발색단과 고분자 줄기를 비중심대칭 구조로 배향시켜 SHG 신호를 발생시켰다. 유리전이온도 70$^{\circ}C$를 중심으로 25$^{\circ}C$에서 80$^{\circ}C$까지 온도영역에서 반복율을 0.5 ㎑에서 10 ㎑까지 변화시키면서 인가한 펄스 고압으로 corona 배향한 결과로 곁가지 발색단과 고분자 주사슬이 스스로 재 정렬하여 형성한 구역구조를 원자간력 현미경(AFM)으로 관측하였다. 펄스 corona 전압 인가로 NLO 발색단 배향도가 증가되고, 동시에 고분자박막의 가시적손상을 획기적으로 줄이면서 SHG 신호가 증대되었으며 배향 후 이완거동도 개선되었다. 이 새로운 펄스 corona 배향 실험으로 NLO 발색단 및 고분자 주사슬이 배향과정에서 비등방으로 재배열하는 현상을 in situ로 입증할 수 있었다.

Objectives: Phthalates, which are widely used as plasticizers, have been recognized as endocrine disruptors. In the present study, we provided information on the regulation of these chemicals and summarized the information available on their detection and toxicity in children's products and those of their alternatives. Methods: The regulatory frameworks related to phthalates in children's products in Korea, the United States (US), and the European Union (EU) were compared. Data on the detection concentration of 16 phthalates and seven phthalate alternatives that could be used in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic products for children as well as on their toxicity classification and endocrine disruption toxicity were collected from the literature. Results: Korea adopted US and EU chemical standards for six phthalates (DEHP, BBP, DBP, DINP, DIDP, and DNOP), but not others (e.g., DIBP, DPP, DHP, and DCHP). Among the ten phthalates and seven substitutes for which regulatory standards were not determined, DIBP, DHP, DEHA, DIBA, DINA, and DEHT were detected in children's products made from PVC plastic. DIBP and DHP, which have a reproductive toxicity classification of 1B, were frequently detected in PVC toys. The reproductive toxicity, estrogenicity, and anti-androgenic activity of the unregulated phthalates and their alternatives have been reported in diverse in vitro and in vivo assays. Conclusion: The use of unregulated phthalates and their substitutes in children's products is increasing. Further monitoring and toxicological information on phthalate alternatives is required to develop proper management plans.
