NCO terminated polyurethane prepolymers were synthesized from isophorone diisocyanate(IPDI), polycarbonate diol(PCD) and dimethylol propionic acid(DMPA). Subsequently, acrylic terminated polyurethanes were prepared by capping the NCO groups of polyurethane prepolymers with different types of acrylate monomers, such as 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate(HEMA), 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate(HEA) and pentaerythritol triacrylate(PETA). The average particle sizes of the acrylic terminated polyurethane solutions were increased by capping acrylate monomers. Also, the prepared coating films showed better abrasion resistance and pencil hardness than those of pure waterborne polyurethanes. The coating film with PETA exhibited the best abrasion resistance and pencil hardness of coating films prepared with three acrylate monomers.

In this study we synthesis Hybrid resin(WPC) by milk casein and waterborne polyurethane(WPU). Then we experiment how casein effect to Hybrid resins in Full-Grain leather coatings. According to measured data for solvent resistance, WPU resin and Hybrid resins had good property. As test of tensile strength, WPU had most low strength(2.130 $kg_f/mm^2$) and WPC-3(WPU 91: casein resin 9) had most high strength(2.191 $kg_f/mm^2$). Also we knew that most good property of abrasion is WPC-3(50.090 mg.loss). In elongation case, WPU had most good result(637 %) in this experiment.

To prepare bio-inspired antifouling coating materials having similar structure with lotus, self-crosslinkable waterborne polyurethanes emulsions containing paraffin wax (CWPU/P0, 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, the number indicated the wt% of wax) were prepared by an emulsifier-free/solvent free prepolymer mixing process. The as-polymerized CWPU/P emulsions containing 0 - 1.00wt% of paraffin wax were found to be stable after 4 months, however, CWPU/P emulsions containing 1.50 and 2.00wt% of paraffin wax were unstable within 1 month storage. Considering the stability of emulsions, the optimum paraffin wax content was found to be about 1wt% to obtain stable antifouling coating emulsion material. The surface topology of CWPU/P film samples was characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM). This study examined the effect of paraffin wax content on the surface roughness, water contact angle/surface energy, water swelling, light transmittance and tensile properties of CWPU/P film samples.

Anionic or Zwitter-ionic waterbone polyurethanes (WPU) based on mixtures of hydroxy terminated poly-butadiene and poly(propylene glycol) were prepared and their physical properties were characterized. Particle size of WPU increased with increasing the content of HTPB. It was observed that the microphase separation of soft segments and hart segments increased with increasing the content of HTPB in the WPUs. Zwitter-ionic WPU showed stronger hydrogen bonds between molecules than anionic WPU after drying. Polyurethane films obtained after drying of WPUs exhibit besmechanical properties when the HTPB content among polyols for WPUs were 25wt%. It is postulated that such mechanical properties resulted from different microphase separation of soft segments and hard segments of polyurethane films obtainec after drying of WPUs.

Linear and cross-linked waterborne polyurethanes (WPUs) based on isophorone diisocyanate and mixed diols of poly(tetramethylene glycol)/hydroxyethyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS-OH) were synthesized with dimethylol propionic acid as an anionic component, trimethylolpropane as a cross-linking agent, and butanediol as a chain extender and characterized. The hydrophobicity, $T_g$, stress-strain behaviors of the linear or cross-linked siloxane-containing WPU (WPU-Si) films with different PDMS content were analyzed by using water contact shape analyzer, energy dispersive spectrometer, dynamic mechanical analyzer, and universal testing machine. The results reveal that as the PDMS content increased, the hydrophobicity of WPU-Si films increased, $T_g$ moved to higher temperature, the breaking stress increased, and the breaking strain decreased.

In this study, waterborne polyurethane (WPU)/nano ZnO was synthesized from various polyester polyols, 4,4-dicyclohexylmethane diisocyanate ($H_{12}MDI$), dimethylolpropionic acid (DMPA), triethylamine (TEA) and ethylenediamine (EDA), nano ZnO. The contents of metal oxide were varied from 0 to 1.0 wt% of total solid. The effects of nano ZnO contents and ionic contents in the WPU/nano ZnO on thermal, mechanical properties were studied. The glass transition temperature ($T_g$) of WPU/nano ZnO do not show a distinct tendency with incorporation of nano ZnO and the $T_g$ of WPU/nano ZnO a little increased with increase of DMPA contents. The tensile strength and 100% modulus increase and elongation at break decreases with increase of nano ZnO contents and DMPA contents.

Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) has good properties such as high conductivity, optical transmittance, and chemical stability, while offering relatively weak physicochemical properties. The main purpose of this paper is the improvement of physicochemical properties such as solvent resistance and pencil hardness of PEDOT. Carboxyl groups in the anionic type waterborne polyurethane (WPU) chains can effectively crosslink each other in the presence of aziridine, resulting in physicochemically robust PEDOT/WPU organic-organic hybrid conductive thin films. The electrical conductivity, optical properties, and physicochemical properties of the hybrid conductive film were compared by varying the solid content and WPU portion in the coating precursor solution. From the results, the transparency and surface resistance of the hybrid film show a decreasing tendency with increasing solid content in the coating precursor. Moreover, solvent resistance and hardness were dramatically enhanced by hybridization of PEDOT and crosslinked WPU due to curing reactions between carboxyl groups.

The curing processes of waterborne adhesives are in general undergone by using hot-air dryer. The hot-air dryer curing the adhesives with heat has a disadvantage of requiring high temperature over $100^{\circ}C$ as well as curing time as long as 20 min. When it comes to the heat control, high temperature open disturbs the adhesion of substrates by extremely lowering the viscosity of the adhesives. Furthermore, the humidity resulting from the drying process makes the curing condition irregularly. In this report, dehumidifying membrane dryer was used in order to keep the curing process same by removing humidity caused by the evaporation of water during the drying process, and to shorten the curing time. Here, we compared the peel strength of attached substrates in the dehumidifying membrane dryer to find out appropriate curing condition and confirm the effects of the dehumidifying membrane.

We detested waterborne enteric viruses from the raw water and tap water in Busan metropolitan city by the total culturable virus assay of EPA standard method. According to the results of survey from July 2001 to November 2002, thirteen out of twenty one in raw water samples were positive (61.9%) for enteric viruses and all of the treated water and tap water samples were negative. The enteric viruses in raw water were mainly distributed through the summer to the earl y winter, suggesting the seasonal characteristics of virus distribution in water The titer of enteric viruses per 100 liters of the raw water was ranged from 1.92 to 9.70 MPN by TCVA-MPN program. The isolated viruses were identified as either human poliovirus type 1 or enteroviruses by the immunofluorescent assay.
