In this study, colloidal microgel with viscoelasticity were prepared by using dispersion containing physical crosslinking agents and microgels with various strengths depending on the degree of cross-links.As the chemical crosslinking agent PEGDA400 content increased, hydrogels have various physical properties the swelling ratio decreased from $2.0{\times}10^4%$ to $6.0{\times}10^3%$ and increased viscosity by about 60%. The colloidal microgel was prepared with micro hydrogel grinded to $100{\mu}m$ size and the rheological behavior was confirmed with physical cross linking agent. A colloidal microgel having various viscosities was prepared by controlling starch and alginate based on micro-hydrogel containing 0.75% (w/v) of PEGDA400. In conclusion, these results would be highly useful for applying as a product that can give various physical properties to the colloidal suspensions, cosmetics, paint, and food industry.

The effect of crosslinking on hand of the cellulase treated Tencel fabrics was investigated. Tencel fabrics were crosslinked with DMDHEU, mechanically prefibrillated, hydrolyzed by cellulase, and treated with softener. The treated fabrics were characterized by add-on, weight loss, DP rating, WRA, strength, SEM analysis and hand measurement. As DMDHEU concentration increased, weight loss of DMDHEU/cellulase treated fabrics decreased. However, cellulase treatment decreased DP properties and strength retention. Less fibrils were observed in the cellulase treated fabrics after DMDHEU treatment than the cellulase treated ones. It was confirmed that crosslinking with DMDHEU treatment was effective to control fibrillation. At 5% of DMDHEU concentration, DMDHEU/cellulase treated fabrics showed softer, smoother and bulkier hand compared with other treated fabrics. Among mechanical properties, bending and shearing properties were decreased progressively through DMDHEU, cellulase, and softener treatment. DMDHEU treatment contributed to impart resilience, cellulase treatment to bulkiness and softener treatment to smoothness. As the treatment of DMDHEU, cellulase, and softener progressed NUMREI, FUKURAMI, and THV increased with the exception of KOSHI.

The polymer electrolyte membranes, CL-SPEEK/Cellulose composite membrane I, II, III with the improved electrochemical and mechanical properties were prepared and characterized. The engineering plastic polyether ether ketone (PEEK) and cellulose were sulfonated and cross-linked. The membranes were prepared by sol-gel casting method with different amount of cross-linking reagent. In conclusion, the composite membranes I, II, III showed improved thermostability, tensile strength and oxidative durability. Proton conductivity of the membranes was also improved and the composite membrane I showed 0.1312 S/cm at $80^{\circ}C$ which was the best of those composite membranes.

In this research, we applied FT-IR spectroscopy to study the hydrolysis of the ester-crosslinking formed by various polycarboxylic acids on the cotton fabric. We observed the following; (1) the ester-crosslinking is less durable to hydrolysis than ether-crosslinking under all conditions; (2) the ester-crosslinking formed by polycarboxylic acids having more than three carboxyl groups, such as butanetetracarboxylic acid (BTCA), are substantially more durable to hydrolysis than the acids having two or three carboxyl groups, such as maleic and citric acid; (3) alkaline conditions drastically accelerate the hydrolysis of both urea- and ester-crosslinking; and (4) the ester-crosslinking formed by poly(maleic acid) is more resistant to hydrolysis at alkaline conditions than BTCA. (5) polycarboxylic acid molecules were removed from the fabric at same rate as the hydrolysis of the ester linkage. FT-IR spectroscopy has proved to be a useful analytical technique for evaluating the hydrolysis of the crosslinked cotton fabric.

A resistive-type humidity sensors have been fabricated using cross-linked PMMA thin film as sensing material and their humidity characteristics have been investigated. The sensor coated of the cross-linked PMMA with PVA exhibited largely variation of resistance by increase of relative humidity and less than 3% of hysteresis. Furthermore, the fabricated sensor exhibited superior long-term stability. The response time of the PMMA humidity sensor was about 7 min. for adsorption and about 5 min. for desorption respectively.

Uniaxial tension and compression test were conducted on conventional and crosslinked ultra-high molecular polyethylene (UHMWPE) all prepared from the same lot of medical grade GUR 1050. The conventional materials were unirradiated and gamma irradiated with $25kGy{\sim}200kGy$. Gamma irradiated processing was found to significantly impact the crystallinity, and hence the mechanical behavior, of the highly crosslinked UHMWPE. The crystallinity and radiation dose were key predictors of the uniaxial yielding, hardness, plastic flow, and failure properties of conventional and highly crosslinked UHMWPE. The correlation model from experiments would be the basic information to design the liner of artificial joint.

Polymerized vesicles were formed from monomeric surfactants and permeability of polymerized vesicles were compared with that of monomeric analogs. The results showed that crosslinking get the permeability of vesicle decrease. And when the vesicle was polymerized at both inside and outside of vesicle, the vesicle got the lower permeability. Packing structure in the vesicle which is dependent upon the molecular structure of alkyl group in surfactant had an effect on permeability of vesicle.

Organo bifunctional silane (TESPD) is added into silica containing NR and its effects are investigated with respect to the vulcanization properties, the processability, and the physical properties. The addition of the TESPD into silica filled NR compound increases the degree of crosslinking by formation of a strong 3-dimensional network structure with silica surface via coupling reaction, which results in an improved mechanical property. It also improves the processabilities compared to the Control compound.

Physicochemical properties of the crosslinked potato starches of MDC(Molar Degree of Crosslinking) 0.137~3.333 treated with epichlorohydrin were examined. MDC increased proportionally as epichlorohydrin concentration increased. Water binding capacity increased but blue value decreased with increasing MDC. Gelatinization trends obtained from DSC thermograms and transmittance showed that the gelatinization temperature of the crosslinked potato starch was higher than that of native potato starch, but there was no significant difference among the crosslinked potato starches. Solubility and swelling power decreased with increasing MDC. X ray diffraction patterns and scanning electron micrographs showed that the crosslinking of starch did not affect the crystallinity and the granule shape of starch.

Concrete with high thixotropy has a lower plastic viscosity when pour in, thus demonstrating fluidity, and After poured, the viscosity can be restored again to ensure stable progress without additional liquidity and material separation. Therefore, in this study, a basic study of thixotropy of concrete was proceeded through cross-linked bond of PVA and Borax. Therefore, it is judgment that the higher the concentration of boron solutions, the higher the strength of the interconnections between PVA and boron.
