In the gas separation process, the separation membranes have to not only show high gas transport and selectivity but also exhibit exceptional stability at high temperature and pressure. However, when the polymeric membranes (particularly, glassy polymers) are exposed to the condensable gases (i.e., CO2, H2S, hydrocarbon, etc.), the polymer chains are prone to swell, leading to low stability. As a result, the plasticization behavior reduces the gas selectivity in the separation of mixture gases at high pressures and thus results in limited applications to the separation processes. To address these issues, many strategies have been studied such as thermal treatment, polymer blending, thermally rearrangement, mixed-matrix membranes, cross-linking, etc. In this review, we will understand the plasticization behavior and suggest potential methods based on the previously reported studies.

Polyvinyl Alcohol(PVA)와 같이 분자간 결합력이 큰 극성고분자에 극성의 가소제를 도입하여 가역적 가소화기법을 이용하여 비결정영역뿐만 아니라 결정영역까지도 가소화시켜 연신성을 개선시키고자하는 연구가 일부 이루어져 왔다. 특히 요드는 극성고분자의 비결정 영역뿐만 아니라 결정영역까지 침투한다는 사실이 밝혀지면서 PVA의 요드 처리에 대한 연구가 많이 이루어져왔다[1-3]. 그러나 지금까지의 연구에서는 대부분 필름이나 섬유와 같이 성형가공된 상태에서, 즉 결정화가 이루어진 후에 요드화를 시켰기 때문에 그 응용범위나 연구에 있어서 한계를 지니고 있다고 할 수 있다.

The plasticized cellulose diacetate (CDA) was prepared by melt processing methods using triacetine (TA) as a plasticizer. Additionally, processability of CDA was enhanced by using epoxidized soybean oil as a secondary plasticizer. The glass transition temperature of plasticized CDA was observed at $50^{\circ}C$ lower than virgin CDA and the incorporation of 5% ESO also resulted in the additional $20^{\circ}C$ decrease in the $T_g$. The tensile properties and modulus of plasticized CDA were better than commercial PP and PLA. The aerobic biodegradability of CDA in controlled compositing condition resulted in 90% of degradation during 60 days.

To replace phthalate plasticizer for PVC, acetylated monoglyceride (AMG) plasticizers were prepared from plant oil and their plasticization effects were also investigated. Transesterification of coconut oil by glycerol followed by acetylation with acetic anhydride gave AMG-CoCo (Coco : Coconut Oil). In addition, AMG-GMO (GMO : Glycerol monooleate) and AMG-GMO-Epoxy were synthesized by acetylation and epoxidation with glycerol monooleate. It was found that the thermal stability of AMG plasticizers increased in the following order: AMG-GMO-Epoxy > AMG-GMO > AMG-CoCo and all three plasticizers were thermally more stable than those of common petroleum-based plasticizer DOP (Dioctyl phthalate). The tensile strain values of the PVC containing AMG compounds were ca. 770~810%, while tensile strength values were ca. 19~22 MPa, which were higher than those of PVC containing DOP. DMA (Dynamic Mechanical Analysis) results showed that the miscibility of AMG-GMO-Epoxy in PVC was excellent and the $T_g$ of PVC containing AMG-GMO-Epoxy at 50 phr decreased down to $24^{\circ}C$. Finally, the leaching experiment result showed that the weight loss values of PVC containing AMG-GMO and AMG-GMO-Epoxy at 50 phr were as low as 2 and 1%, respectively, indicating that they have high water migration resistance. The above findings suggested that AMG-GMO-Epoxy could be one of plant oil-based PVC plasticizers to replace DOP.

Purpose: Cellulose acetate (CA) was blended with polyethyleneglycol (PEG) having different molecular weight at various mixing conditions to enhance melt-processibility of CA, which might prevent the harmful effect resulted from the introduction of phthalic plasticizer. Methods: To establish optimal plasticizing conditions, CA/PEG blends were examined under various plasticizing conditions: PEG concentration, molecular weight of PEG, and plasticzing temperature. Mechanical properties of the CA/PEG blends, as well as migration and exudation of the PEG, were performed in order to evaluate the efficiency of plasticization. Results: Compared to industrial CA resin plasticized by diethyl phthalate, CA/PEG blends exhibited similar thermal plasticization. It was established that the optimum condition was to blend 30~40 phr PEG with molecular weight 400 at $175{\sim}180^{\circ}C$. CA/PEG blend showed superior glassness, PEG stability, and mechanical properties. Conclusions: CA/PEG blends would be a eco-friendly glasses frame to substitute traditional CA glasses frame prepared phthalate plasticizers.

Plasticized cellulose diacetate(CDA) was prepared by homogenizing cellulose diacetate(CDA), triacetin(TA) and epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) in a high-speed mixer, then the CDA mixture was mixed with ramie fiber to produce a green composite material. In DMA analysis, the glass transition temperature of plasticized CDA and the composite was observed at $85\;^{\circ}C\;and\;140\;^{\circ}C$, respectively. A composite reinforced with alkali treated ramie fiber exhibited significantly higher mechanical properties, such as $15\;^{\circ}C$ increase in tensile strength as well as $41\;^{\circ}C$ increase in Young's modulus when compared with commercial polypropylene. In the SEM image analysis, much enhanced adhesion between plasticized CDA and alkali treated ramie fiber (AIRa) was observed.

최근 노후화 된 콘크리트 및 털 구조물에 대하여 환경 공해가 발생하지 않는 해체 기술의 필요성이 급증하고 있어서 이에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 그 결과 콘크리트 구조물을 일시에 해체하기 위하여 사용되고 있던 화약을 이용한 발파해체공법 및 군용 폭파 공법 등으로부터 응용되어 특수한 형태의 크기로 제작된 성형폭약을 철골구조물에 부착시킨 후 이를 폭발 시켜서 순간적으로 철골구조물의 철판(또는 빔이나 기타 부자재)을 절단 해체할 수 있게 되었다. 그 동안은 성형폭약의 폭발절단 효과에 영향을 주는 요소들인 대상 구조물의 재질 및 형상, 두께와 강도 특성, 성형폭약의 형상, 폭약의 종류, 장약량, Liner의 종류, Stand-off Distance, 성형폭약의 폭 및 너비, 기폭방법에 따른 영향과 폭발 절단시 발생되는 폭풍압에 의한 진동 및 소음의 영향 등에 대한 연구가 대부분이었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 성형폭약의 주 구성요소인 화약과 금속성 Liner를 유연성이 탁월하고 조성 성분들의 혼합성과 성형성이 우수한 가소화제를 사용하여 제작된 성형폭약의 가소화 정도가 폭발절단력에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 이를 위하여 본 연구는 PETN 과 RDX 화약이 각각 25wt% 및 75wt%로 흔합된 화약원료를 85wt%로 하고 폴리이소부틸렌(P.I.B) 성분이 80 wt% 이상인 폴리부텐(P.B) 7wt% 와 부틸고무 4wt% 그리고 디에칠헥실세바케이트 4wt%로 구성된 가소화제를 사용하여 실험하였다.
