As a possible biocompatible and biodegrable polymer skeleton for drug delivery system, block copolymers of L-lactic acid and L-glutamic acid with different composition were synthesized and characterized. Poly (L-lactide) was prepared by polymerization of L-lactide with zine oxide at $130^{\circ}C$ for 72 hrs. 3-Amino-l-propanol was introduced to poly (L-lactide) by an ester linkage in order to initiate polymerization. Polymerization of $\gamma-benzyl-L-glutamate-N-carboxyanhydride(\gamma-BLG-NCA)$ utiliizing the amino group of modified poly (L-lactide) as an initiator gave rise to the block copoly $(L-lactide-\gamma-benzyl-L-glutamate).$ The NMR study of resulting block copolymers showed that the composition of L-lactic acid and $\gamma-benzyl-L-glutamate$ in block copolymers was depended on the weight ratio of poly (L-lactide) and $\gamma-BLG-NCA.$ The thermal properties of the resulting block copolymers were determined by the differential scanning calorimetry and by the thermogravimetry.

The cationic polymerization of energetic substituted oxetanes which have pendant energetic group such as azido and nitrato are investigated theoretically, using semiempirical HF/3-21G, MINDO/3, MNDO and AM1 method. The stereo- and electronic structure of binary molecular complex composed of energetic substituted oxetane and boron trifluoride can be explain by molecular orbital theory. The reactivity of propagation in the copolymerization of oxetanes can be presented by the positive charge on carbon(C2) atom of oxetane and energy level of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital(LUMO) of propagating species of oxetanes. The reactivity ratios for copolymerization of oxetanes are a random copolymer-zation which is agree with MO calculated and experimental results. The relative equlibrium concentration of cyclic oxonium and open carbenium ions is found to be a major determinant of mechanism, owing to the rapid equilibrium of these cation forms and the expectation based on calculation that in the prepolymer propagation step, SN1 mechanism will be at least as fast as that for SN2 mechanism.

Solution copolymerization of Styrene(St) and n-Butylmethacrylate(BMA) was carried out with Benzoylperoxide (BPO) as an initiator in toluene at $80^{\circ}C$ in a continuous stirred tank reactor. Reaction volume and residence time were 0.6 liters, 3 hours respectively. The monomer reactivity ratios, $r_1$(St) and $r_2$(BMA) were determined by both the Kelen-Tlidos method and the Fineman-Ross method ; $r_1$=0.75(0.67), $r_2$=0.61(0.56). The cross-termination factor, $\phi$ factor of the copolymer over the entire St compositions ranged from 0.44 to 0.78. The $\phi$ factors of St-BMA copolymer increased with increasing St compositions. Our present system showed that the continuous copolymerization of St with BMA followed second-order kinetic behavior. The simulated conversions and copolymerization rates were compared with the experimental results. The average time to reach dynamic steady-state was three times and half of the residence time.

This article examines not the term "the public" or "publics"-which has various meanings-but its particular meaning, which is a group of citizens who engage in political discussion and debate with fellow citizens in order to form shared understandings and common judgments with regard to contemporary affairs and public issues. The goal of this article is to show the importance of this concept in critical studies of media and society and to analyze how this concept has been accepted in South Korean critical communication studies. In this article, critical communication studies refer to communication studies that aim to explore social meanings of communication phenomena. This article argues that little attention has been paid to the concept of the public as agreement-oriented discursive political participants in South Korean critical communication studies.

Wireless ad hoc network which is comprised of wireless nodes that have the limited communication range is utilized to monitoring disaster area, tracing object, and tactical system. But in the case of wireless node on the ground, a network performance decrease because wireless channel is affected from obstacle or the node deployment is restricted. In this paper, we consider wireless network based on UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) which has little spatial constraint and quickly deploy a position. We implement test-bed included ground nodes and UAV, and measure throughput and PDR(Packet Delivery Ratio) according to the usage of UAV. We show that network performance is improved by relaying data on UAV.

The acrylate copolymer having good coating, water-repellent and adhesion properties was designed and prepared. We prepared copolymers with high yield of > 95% using methyl methacrylate(MMA), 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl acrylate (FMA) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate monomers(HEMA) by either bulk or emulsion polymerization techniques. The $^1H-NMR$ spectrum was used to identify chemical structure and DSC and DMA analysis were conducted. As a result, the glass transition temperature decreased by $3^{\circ}C$ as FMA content increased from 5% to 10%, and decreased by $2{\sim}8^{\circ}C$ when HEMA content increased from 5 % to 10 %. The physical properties were measured using Instron and TGA. As FMA or HEMA content increased by 10%, tensile strength decreased from 29 MPa to 22 MPa and Td decreased from $200^{\circ}C$ to $180^{\circ}C$ in both bulk and emulsion. The contact angle relatively decreased as hydrophilic HEMA content increased.

Poly(ethylene glycol) with number-average molecular weight (M$_{n}$) of 200 (PEG 200) or 400 (PEG 400) was reacted with various linking agents (CH$_2$Cl$_2$, CH$_2$Br$_2$, CH$_2$I$_2$, Br(CH$_2$)$_3$Br) in the presence of alkali to form of oxyalkylene linked chains. Molecular weights of copolymers were controlled using feed mole ratio of alkali/CH$_2$C1$_2$/PEG. The M$_{n}$ of the polymers measured by end group analysis and that measured by GPC agreed well. Molecuglar weights of polyether copolymers obtained from PEG 200 and PEG 400 were about 500~8500 and 1000~2000, respectively. Polyether copolymers prepared from PEG 400 showed melting points of around 1$0^{\circ}C$. Glass transition temperatures of the copolymers were around -75$^{\circ}C$ and the crystallinity was about 0~25%. The polyether copolymers prepared from PEG 200 had no crystallinity below the M$_{n}$ of 2500. 2500.

2-Biphenylyl acrylate(BPA) was synthesized by the reaction of acryloyl chloride with 2-phenylphenol (2PP). Hydrophilic copolymers with the moiety of the microbicide, 2PP, were prepared by the radical copolymerization of BPA and methacrylic acid (MA). From the compositions of the BPA unit and the MA unit in the copolymers, the monomer reactivity ratios were determined to be 0.86 for BPA and 1.21 for MA by means of Kelen-Tudos plot. This result indicates that the copolymers have a random structure. The amount of 2PP released through the hydrolysis of the copolymers was examined by UV spectrometry. The result showed that the release of 2PP increased with an increase in the hydrophilic MA content in the copolymers and with an increase in the pH of the release medium. Therefore, these results indicate that the hydrophilic polymers bearing 2-phenylphenol moiety can be controlled release microbicides.

Polyarylate(PAR)-nylon 6 block copolymers of various block lengths were prepared by the anionic polymerization of ${\varepsilon}$-caprolactam using the polymeric activator from hydroxy-difuncrtional PAR and toluene diisocyanate. Phase separated morphology of PAR-nylon 6 block copolymer was suggerted from the thermal properties measured by differential scanning calorometry(d.s.c.). Partial miscbility between PAR block and nylon 6 block of the block copolymers was more evident at shorter length of constituent blocks. In binary blends of PAR-nylon 6 block copolymer with PAR or nylon 6 homopolymer, molecular-level mixing of homopolymers with corresponding blocks of block copolymer was supposed from the thermal properties measured by d.s.c..

Amidoximated composite fiber adsorbents were prepared for separation of uranium from seawater and characterized by various instrumental techniques, such as IR spectroscopy, CHN elemetal analyzer and SEM. The swelling ratios and yields of the AN-TEGMA and AN-TEGMA-DVB copolymers were decreased with an increase in crosslinklng agents, such as DVB and TEGMA composition. The yield of 85-92% and 82-88% of AN-TEGMA and AN-TEGMA-DVB copolymers respectively were found. The porosity was also decreased with increase in crosslinking compositions, and it was found that the AN-TEGMA-DVB porosity copolymers were smaller than the value of AN-TEGMA copolymer. We investigated that the adsorbent with the composite fiber adsorbents were well dispersed on the surface of Its by SEM. The optimum contents of containing adsorbent in the copolymer was 40 weight percent. The capacity of uraniyl ion through the composite fiber adsorbent containing the amidoxime group was miximized a pH level of 8. Also, if was found that the synthesized composite fiber adsorbent was good material, due to a pH level of 8.3 of seawater, for separation of uraniyl ion from seawater.
