Soil aggregate is a vigorous procedure including soil physical, chemical, and biological processes. Pore space created by binding these particles together improves retention and exchange of air and water. Various researches have reported that the benefits of organic polymers that may increase aggregate stability. The purpose of the study was to determine if a liquid organic polymer mixture has any influence on perennial ryegrass quality or soil aggregation. $Turf2Max^{(R)}$ was applied to two soils as a source of liquid organic polymer. Fine-loamy soil from local Iowa topsoil with 4.0% organic matter was screened and dried. Commercial baseball infield clay, $QuickDry^{(R)}$, was used as the second soil There were three rates of liquid organic polymer (0, 2, and 4%). there was no visual improvement in turf grass color, quality, or growth by using organic polymer. It is possible that aggregate stability increases with use of organic polymer. The aggregate stability study needs to be repeated in the greenhouse and then substantiated under field conditions for these preliminary observations.

유화중합은 물을 용매로 사용하기 때문에 화재와 폭발의 위험성이 없고 환경문제가 없으며 원료 원가 면에서 저렴한 특징이 있기 때문에 수요가 매년 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 이 같은 장점을 지닌 유화중합은 물을 분산매로 폴리머를 제조하는 유용한 기술이지만 유화제, 이온성의 개시제 등과 같이 폴리머 본래의 성질을 저하시키며 물에 잘 용해되는 성분을 수반한다. 따라서 이러한 기존 유화중합법의 단점을 보완한 새로운 에멀젼 라텍스 제조기술로서, 유화제 대신에 폴리비닐알콜과 같은 보호폴로이드 또는 유기 과산화물을 사용하는 무유화제 제조기법에 대한 연구가 이루어지고, 이와 같이 제조된 에멀젼 라텍스는 기존 공정에 의해 제조된 제품에 비해 내수성과 건조된 필름의 인장 강도 및 여러 매트릭스에 대한 부착력이 향상된다. 그러나 이들 방법으로 제조된 폴리머도 복합 물성이 요구되는 분야에는 한계가 있어 복합 라텍스 제조에 대한 새로운 연구가 최근에 많이 되고 있다.(중략)

The interfacial polymerization method has been applied to various fields as a reaction in which reactive monomers dissolved in two immiscible solutions cause polymerization at the interface. In the case of water treatment membranes, m-phenylene diamine and trimesoyl chloride are used as reactants. The performance of the membrane is affected by various polymerization factors. In this study, we investigated how the spreading rate of the organic solution influences the surface and structure of the membrane. Spreading rate of organic solutions was adjusted to 7.6 and 25 mm/sec. The solution volume of the organic phase was adjusted to 1~3 drops. The observed results showed that cracks were not found in the polyamide membrane when dropping at a drop of 7.6 mm/sec and dropping two drops at 25 mm/sec. On the other hand, cracks occurred in all cases. Therefore, the spreading rate of the initial organic solvent is expected to greatly affect the performance of the polyamide membrane.

Cholesterol-containing surfactant was synthesized, and it was sonicated with monomer in water to form a vesicle solution. This vesicle solution was dried to construct a membrane which had a molecular multilayer structure. Using UV irradiation the monomer in this membrane were polymerized, and then surfactant was extracted by organic solvent. Using a X-ray diffractometer, the thickness of one layer and the regularity of the multilayer were measured. And scanning electron microscopy was conducted for fractured polymer film.

Cholesterol-containing surfactant was synthesized, and it was sonicated with monomer [tetradeca(ethylene glycol) diacrylate] in water to from a vesicle solution. This vesicle solution was dried to construct a membrane which had a molecular multilayer structure. The monomer which stay in this membrane was polymerized with photoinitiation, and then surfactant was extracted by organic solvent. The physical properties of the two dimensional polymer network were measured, and these physical properties are tensile strength, elongation, and swelling.

This research was carried out for searching the treatment conditions of organic acid and heating to prepare oligomers from the carrageenan. The applied treatments were autoclaving, micraowaving, and ultrasonicating with acetate, citrate, lactate, malate, and succinate. Among several physical depolymerization methods, auo-claving treatment was the most effective for hydrolyzing the carrageenan to low molecular compounds such as oligosaccharides. Citrate or malate was the most effective catalyst in hydrolyzing carrageenan to some oligo-saccharides among 5~7 different organic acids. An acceptable autoclaving condition for hydrolyzing carrageenan to oligosaccharides was to treat for 120 min at 110~12$0^{\circ}C$. The maximum depolymerization ratio produced by autoclaving was about 23.0%. The depolymerized carrageenan prepared by autoclaving at 12$0^{\circ}C$ had oligo-saccharides of 5~7 species.

The optimum organic acid and temperature conditions were investigated for the preparation of oligosaccharides from agar. The tested organic acids were acetate, citrate, lactate, malate, and succinate and the conditions for oligosaccharides preparation were $0.3\%,\;0.5%;and\;0.7\%$ organic acid concentrations at $80\~120^{\circ}C.$ The low concentration of organic acid below $0.3\%$ decreased the degrading ratio and the high concentration up $0.5\%$ could not changed the degrading ratio. Conditions below $100^{\circ}C$ was not good for degrading agar. But $100^{\circ}C\;or\;120^{\circ}C$ was optimal temperature conditions for agarooligosaccharides according to the organic acid type and concentration. The organic acid concentration was $0.5\%$ and organic acid was the citrate or malate. The treatment time considered optimum was 120$\~$180 min. The maximal degrading ratio giving optimum conditions such as $100^{\circ}C\;and\;120^{\circ}C\;was\;35.5\%\;and\;38.7\%,$ respectively. The agarooligosaccharides prepared by autoclaving at $100^{\circ}C\;and\;120^{\circ}C$ were 2$\~$7 species oligomer.

Hollow silica particles were prepared using sodium silicate and organic templates. Polystyrene latex (PSL) particles produced by dispersion polymerization were used as organic templates. PSL particles ranged from $1{\mu}m$ to $3{\mu}m$ in diameter were synthesized by adjusting the amount of 2,2'-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN). The PSL/$SiO_2$ core-shell particles were prepared by coating of silica nanoparticles originated from sodium silicate using sol-gel method. The organic templates were removed by the organic solvent, tetrahydrofuran (THF). Morphology of hollow silica particles was investigated with respect to types of the reaction medium and pH during the process. By changing the solvent from ethanol to water, hollow silica particles were successfully formed. Hollow silica particles with the uniform shell thickness were produced at low pH as well. The reflectivity of the as-prepared silica particles was measured in the range of the wavelength of UV and visible light. Hollow silica particles showed much better reflective properties than the commercial light reflector, Insuladd.

Poly pyrrole polymer(ppy) has an excellent electrical conductivity and can be easily polymerized on anode to give various morophology according to doped anion on electroactive sites. To improve the properties of brittleness, ageing and hydrophobisity, poly furan polymer(pfu) having a high initiation potential was anodically implanted in this porous ppy film matrix to get the Pt/ppy/pfu(x)type of polymer composite electrode. Cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance methods were used to these electrode, where $PF_6^-,\; BF_4^-$, and $ClO_4^-$ ions were employed as dopants. The composition of the pfu(x) at the electrode was changed from 0 to 1.10, but the range was useful only at 0.1 to 0.2 as the redox electrode. The polymer composite electrode doped with $PF_6^-$ was better in charge transfer resistance by a factor of 40 times and in double layer capacitance by a factor of 20 times than others. The charge transfer in the polymer film of the electrode was influenced on frequency change and equivalent circuit of this electrode had Warburg impedance including mass transfer.

In this study sol-gel and combustion process was surveyed for the preparation of the red $Y_2O_3$: Eu phosphor, and the properties of phosphor was considered. Chelation and hydrolysis in amorphous citrate sol-gel process were completed in initial reaction stage, and water-forming condensation was superior to organic acid-forming condensation. The mole ratio of citric acid to metal ion had to be above to for the progress of sol-gel process. The dried gel powders are mostly amorphous, and crystallize completely at $700^{\circ}C$, and the crystallinity increases with increasing calcining temperature. The luminescence property of the phosphor was analyzed by measuring the emission spectra. The luminescence intensity increases when the calcination temperature and concentration of metal ions in solution increase.
