Polyethylene glycol(PEG) 또는 polycaprolactone(PCP)을 예비 중합체로 사용하고 butanetriol trinitrate와 diethylene glycoldinitrate를 가소제로, cyclo-tetramethylene tetranitramine을 주산화제로 사용한 고체 추진제를 제조하여 이들의 기계적 성질을 증진시키기 위한 연구를 하였다. PEG의 일부를 PCP로 대체 시 추진제의 기계적 성질은 증가하며 PCP만 사용시 추진제의 최대 인장 강도는 PEG만 사용시 보다 약 17%, 최대 응력 하에서의 신율은 약 59% 그리고 탄성 계수는 약 9% 증가한다. 그러나 예비 중합체로 PCP만을 사용한 추진제는 4$0^{\circ}C$, 90% 상대 습도하에서 보관시 추진제의 경도 변화 실험에서 6주 후에 경도가 0이 되며, 위의 조건하에서 보관 기간에 따른 PCP 바인더의 부피 팽윤 실험에 의해 초기 부피 팽윤 비와 팽윤비의 변화 속도가 PEG를 혼용한 바인더보다 크므로 PCP 사용시 수분에 대한 안정성은 저하됨을 알 수 있었다.

Cellulose I에서 Cellulose II로의 결정변태기구를 X선 및 전자선 회절법과 현미경적 방법을 이용하여 구명하였다. X선 회절 결과, Na-cellulose I을 고온에서 수세할 경우 Cellulose I과 Cellulose II의 혼합형 회절도가, 저온에서 수세할 경우 Na-cellulose IV의 회절도가 얻어졌다. 전자선회절 결과, 고온수세의 시료는 Cellulose I과 Cellulose II의 혼합형이 저온수세의 시료는 Cellulose II의 회절도가 얻어졌다. 또한 고온수세 시료의 전자선회절도로부터 섬유벽의 내측부가 외측부보다 재생 Cellulose I의 양이 많은 것이 확인되었다. 따라서 알칼리 팽윤시 섬유벽내에는 불완전한 팽윤이 발생하는데 그 정도는 내측부가 더욱 심한 것으로 생각된다. 이때 형성되는 불완전한 Na-cellulose I 은 고온 수세의 경우는 탈수에 의해 Cellulose I로, 저온수세의 경우는 수화에 의해 Cellulose II로 변태되지만 완전히 팽윤된 Na-cellulose I은 Cellulose I로 재생될 수 없는 것으로 생각된다. 현미경적 실험결과, mercerization과정에서 cellulose 분자쇄의 packing이나 conformation의 변화와 관련하여 microfibril 의 흐트러짐은 발생하지 않는 것으로 생각되었다.

In this research montmorillonite intercalations complexes as organophilic clay compounds which have very different properties as the starting clay mineral were synthesized by the substitution of metal ions which exist in the montmorillonite layers with the organic cations which have long alkyl chain by the cation exchange reaction. Thereafter the obtained products dried in high vacuum were treated with the various swelling liquids such as dist. water, methanol, acetone, ether and acetonitrile in order to know the swelling behaviour of the synthesized complexes. Especially for this research Korean and Turkish clays were selected to compare the intercalations complexes of both clays and their swelling behaviour.

Metformin is a recommended first-line therapy drug for type 2 diabetes patients. However, compared to other oral antidiabetic drugs (OAD), metformin has a large unit dosage, with bioavailability of 40-60%. This limiting bioavailability is because metformin is absorbed only in the upper gastrointestinal tract as a BCS class 3 drug. Hence, we propose that applying the Gastroretentive Drug Delivery System (GRDDS) and extending drug release time in the stomach will result in improved bioavailability. We selected the swelling type delivery system, as it is considered the most stable gastroretention technology compared to other GRDDSs. We modified the swelling excipient by using a natural swelling excipient to form a swelling tablet made of carrageenan and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC). Our results indicate that the swelling complex tablet made of carrageenan and HPMC has a good swelling ability and shows required sustained release in a dissolution pattern. In addition, the carrageenan complex has a better swelling ability than the marketed metformin tablet, as determined by the ratio, (swelling ability)/(excipient weight). Taken together, our results indicate that the carrageenan complex can be developed as a good swelling excipient. Further optimizations are required for the commercialization of the carrageenan complex.

In this paper, poly (dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) was modified using electron beam irradiation and its property was investigated. PDMS sheets prepared using a conventional thermal curing method were irradiated by electron beams at absorbed doses between 20 and 200 kGy and their properties were characterized using swelling degree and contact angle measurements, universal testing machine (UTM), thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), and X -ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS). The results of the swelling degree measurements, UTM, and TGA revealed that the swelling degree of the irradiated PDMS sheets was reduced down to 24% in comparison to the control sheet, and their compression strength and thermal decomposition temperature increased up to maximum 2.5 MFa and $10^{\circ}C$, respectively, due to the increase in crosslinking density by irradiation. In addition, on the basis of the results of contact angle measurements and XPS, the wettability of the PDMS sheets was enhanced up to 24% owing to the generation of hydrophilic functional groups on the PDMS surface by oxidation during electron beam irradiation.

In this work, carboxymethylcellulose-based composite superabsorbent hydrogels were prepared by electron beam radiation. The composition of carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) varied from 4 wt%, 5 wt%, and 6 wt% to 7 wt% based on the amount of distilled water in the syntheses of hydrogels. Graphite oxide, reduced graphene oxide, activated carbon, and bentonite were used as additives for the synthesis of composite superabsorbent. The effect of CMC composition and the type of additives on the gel properties of the prepared hydrogels was investigated. In order to verify the functional groups in the prepared materials, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used. In addition, mechanical strength, gel fraction, swelling kinetics, and equilibrium swelling ratios were measured for the prepared hydrogels. Swelling experiments were carried out in distilled water, urea solution, and physiological saline water. Prepared hydrogels were reused for 5 times, and gel fraction and swelling ratio were measured at every 24 hours. Among the prepared hydrogels, $C_{5%}GO$ and $C_{5%}rGO$ exhibited excellent mechanical property and relatively high swelling ratios for urea solution and physiological saline water with promising applicability as slow-release fertilizers.

The effects of the type of curing agent on the swelling of the natural rubber(NR) sponge applicable to the self-sealing layer of a helicopter fuel tank were investigated. The curing systems employed were peroxide and mixed ones of sulfur and peroxide. The NR compounds were prepared in a kneader and a roll-mill. The compounds were partially cured in a press at high pressure and subsequently cured fully with expansion in another press at atmospheric pressure. The apparent density of the NR sponge was measured and the cell structure was observed with scanning electron microscopy. The swelling experiments were performed at room temperature using toluene, iso-octane, and an aircraft fuel as a solvent. More rapid volume swelling of the NR sponge cured by peroxide was achieved than cured by sulfur and peroxide with similar amount of curing agent added in rubber compounds. The apparent density and cell structure of the sponge were extremely sensitive to the amount of peroxide, which influences again the swelling behavior of the NR sponge. It is important to control properly two reactions of decomposition of foaming agent and crosslinking of NR in the mold to obtain rapid swelling of the NR sponge on contact of the fuel.

소프트하이드로겔은 소재의 친수-소수성, 조성, 가교도, 약물의 물성에 의해 약물방출을 조절할 수 있었으며 또한 특이적인 전연성, 탄성에 의해 약물의 0차방출이 가능하였다. 메타크릴산-IPN-소프트하이드로겔은 현저하게 높은 PH의존성 팽윤도와 이에 따른 약물조절방출능을 보였으며 아크릴산-IPN-소프트하이드로겔은 우수한 점착성을 나타내었다. 이상 연구된 소프트하이드로겔들은 새로운 소재로서 개발대상으로 설정된 조절방출성 제제로의 활용성을 기대되었다.

소프트하이드로겔의 합성은 IR, DSC등으로 확인되었으며, 전연성의 물성을 나타내었다. PPO 하이드로겔은 대부분 수팽윤도가 10％미만 정도로서 야굴방출시 팽윤에 의한 변형도가 낮아 부착형, 또는 이식형 조절방출성 제제에의 활용도가 기대되었으며, 약물방출은 주로 가교도/주쇄연장도에 의한 고분자 네트？의 세공크기(mesh size)에 의해 조절되었다. IPN하이드로겔의 경우는 pH의존성이 일반적이 겔보다 현저하게 나타났으며, 하유된 약물이 물성에 따른 약물방출양상을 보였다.

Commercial Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) filaments were treated in solvents mixtures such as benzyl alcohol/perchloroethylene(BA/PER), benzyl alcohol/trichloroethylene(BA/TRI), benzyl alcohol/ethylene chloride(BA/EC), metha nol/perchloroethylene(ME/PER), and methanol/trichloroethyle(ME/TRI). Swelling of PET in solvent mixtures showed rapidly in the middle range of mixture ratio. Contribution of swelling of each component to total swelling of binary mixtures with increasing treated time was generally showed in proportion to the mixture ratio of the each component in dependence of the extend of swelling.
