Polymer electronics is the one of the most promising way to realize the flexible electronics and many studies made remarkable progress to achieve the improvement in performance of polymer electronics comparable to current silicon-based technology. PBTTT is conjugated semiconducting polymer with highly ordered, chain-extended crystalline microstructures and shows high field effect mobilities above 0.1 $cm^2/Vs$. We studied PBTTTs FETs phase and explored methods to control channel interface in various device structures. Especially, in PBTTTs' unique nano-ribbon phase, we could obtain high mobilities of up to 0.4 $cm^2/Vs$, which was not reached before. Alignment of PBTTTs film was carried out using zone casting and anisotropy of mobilities in parallel and perpendicular to the polymer chain direction was investigated. Optical anisotropy in aligned nano-ribbon PBTTT FETs was also studied using a polarized optical absorption.

Atomic force microscope (AFM) enables us to stretch a single polymer chain by picking it at its two modified termini. Using this method called "nanofishing," we have studied statistical properties of single polymer chains. A force-extention curve obtained for a polystyrene with thiol termini in a cyclohexane showed a good agreement with a worm-like chain (WLC) model, and thus gave microscopic information about entropic elasticity. In this report, the experiments were performed at wide-range temperatures, resulting in wide-range solvent qualities from poor to good solvent condition. The temperature dependence of statistical properties of polystyrene was examined. The coil-strand transformation realized in a poor solvent was also discussed.

The intrinsic viscosities were determined for poly(DL-lactic acid) (PDLLA) solutions in 1,2-dialkyl phthalate at temperatures ranging from 30 to $60^{\circ}C$. A series of dialkyl phthalate, in which the alkyl group was changed from methyl to propyl, was used as the solvent to control the solvent quality systematically. The intrinsic viscosity of the PDLLA solution was higher in the better quality solvent, with a higher molecular weight of PDLLA, and at lower temperatures. The unperturbed dimensions of the PDLLA molecule and polymer-solvent interaction parameter of PDLLA in dialkyl phthalate were deduced using extrapolation methods based on the temperature-dependent intrinsic viscosities. Slight shrinkage in the unperturbed chain dimension was observed, which resulted from a change in polymer conformation with temperature. It was also observed that the polymer-solvent interaction became more favorable with the dialkyl phthalate containing a shorter alkyl chain.

리빙 음이온 중합에 의해 sec-BuLi으로 개시된 polystyryllithium (PSLi)과 polybutadienyllithium (PBDLi)의 연쇄 말단에 di(2-pyridyl)ketone(DPK)을 반응시켜 dipyridine이 말단 관능화된 폴리스티렌과 폴리부타디엔을 각각 합성하였다. 분자량이 1000~2000 g/mol인 PSLi과 PBDLi을 사용하여 TMEDA 존재하에서 말단 DPK-관능화 반응 후 GPC에 의한 분자량 특성분석과 $^1H$-NMR, $^{13}C$-NMR 분석에 의한 고분자 말단 구조 분석을 통하여 말단 관능화 수율과 함께 유기리튬의 피리딘 링 친핵성 부가 반응으로 인한 커플링 현상을 확인하였다. PBDLi에 DPK를 부가하는 일반적인 말단 관능화 방법에 비하여 역으로 부가하는 방법에서 최대 9% 정도의 커플링 정도와 86% 이상의 관능화 수율을 보였다. 이 반응에서 LiCl 첨가효과는 없었으며, 반응온도가 낮을수록 높은 관능화 수율을 나타내었다.

할로겐화알킬($PhCH_2Br$, $PhCH_2Cl$, MeI)과 설폰산에스테르(MeOTf)를 개시제로 사용하여 $100^{\circ}C$, 24시간의 반응조건으로 2-(1,3,3-trimethyl-6-azabicyclo[3,2,1]-oct-6-yl)-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazoline(TAO)의 중합을 실시, 개시제에 의한 폴리머구조의 영향을 관찰한 결과, 양쪽 개시제 모두 거의 동일한 연쇄이동에서 나타나는 경향과 비슷한 결과를 얻었다. 그러나 개시제에 의한 폴리머의 구조는 설폰산에스테르계 개시제에서는 거의 100% pendant type 폴리머가 생성되는 반면, 할로겐화알킬계 개시제를 사용한 TAO중합은 pendant type 단위와 main chain type의 단위가 소량 생성됨이 확인되어 이것은 구핵성이 높은 할로겐 음이온에 의한 이중이성화중합이 부분적으로 진행되었음을 확인하였으며, 개시제로 Merrifield수지를 사용한 TAO와의 공중합에서는 다량의 단일중합체가 부생되는 그래프트 공중합체가 생성되었다.

Side-chain liquid crystalline polymers having polysiloxane skeletons were synthesized by a thiol-ene reaction, using two kinds of mesogenic groups: a cholesteryl group for induction into a cholesteric liquid crystal phase and a triazomesogenic group for imparting light-sensitivity. All the synthesized polymers were crystalline, except the one with a single cholesteryl group. Crystallinity, glass transition temperature, and melt transition temperature increased with increasing content of the azomesogenic group. The polymer (P-C10A0) with a single cholesteryl group has a cholesteric phase, the one (P-C0A10) with a single azomesogenic group has a smectic phase, and those with both types of mesogenic groups showed both smectic and cholesteric phases. The temperature ranges of the two liquid crystalline phases in the co-polymers were independent of the contents of the two types of mesogenic groups. The rate of photoisomerization of the light-sensitive azobenzene group in the polymer decreased with increasing azobenzene content due to steric hindrance between the azomesogenic groups.

A parametric study to investigate the effects of composition variables on the glass transition and mechanical properties of CNT-based nanocomposites was performed using molecular dynamics simulations. In this study, matrix chain length and CNT length were chosen as the candidate characteristic parameters. In order to understand the effect of both parameters in detail, three sample sets having different chain lengths with the same CNT configuration and two sample sets having different CNT lengths with same chain length were prepared. Other parameters such as volume fraction and density were fixed to enable rigorous comparisons. Amorphous polyethylene is used as matrix polymer and (10,0) zigzag CNT is embedded into the matrix to reinforce polymer matrix. As a result, longer polymer chain length of matrix solely increased glass transition temperature but no reinforcing enhancement was observed. CNT length showed similar increase with little enhancement of elastic modulus. In addition to this, nanocomposites showed temperature-dependent elastic modulus jump passing thorough the glass transition region agrees well with experimental results.

Water-soluble polyacrylamides hydrophobically modified with small amounts of N,N-dialkylacrylamides [N,N-dihexylacrylamide (DHAM) and N,N-dioctylacrylamide (DOAM)] have been prepared through free radical solution polymerizations using two hydrophobic initiators derived from 4,4' -azobis(4-cyanopentanoic acid) (ACVA) and long linear chains consisting of 12 and 16 carbon atoms (C12 and C16). This procedure resulted in polyacrylamides containing hydrophobic groups along the chain as well as at the chain ends. We compare the properties of this class of polymers, termed "combined associative polymers", with those of the multisticker (with hydrophobic groups along the polymer chain) and telechelic (with hydrophobic groups at the chain ends) associative polymers. These materials were prepared using DHAM or DOAM and a hydrophobic initiator (ACVA) modified with alkyl chains of two different lengths. Polymers having molecular weights (M$\_$w/) of ca. 175,000 and hydrophobic contents [H] of ca. 0.8 mol% were prepared using 0.07 mol% of initiator relative to the total monomer feed. We investigated the effects that the type, localization, and concentration of the hydrophobic groups have on the viscosities of the associative polymer solutions.

The branched polypropylene (b-PP) was prepared by melt blending process with initiator, antioxidant, and functional monomers to improve the melt strength through the melt grafting. The melt flow index (MFI) of the b-PP was increased with increasing the initiator content. On the introduction of the alkylamine as the branching agents the MFI of the b-PP was increased, while that of the b-PP with the pentaerythritol triacrylate (PT) was decreased. It may be caused by the chain scission of the i-PP backbone due to the reduced thermal stability of the i-PP on the melt blending. The MFI of the b-PP without the antioxidant was increased due to the chain scission occurred during the melt processing, while on the introduction of the antioxidant, the MFI of the b-PP was decreased. The crystallization temperature of the b-PP was higher than that of PP, which was attributed to the branched chain structure. It was found that the PT was the most effective functional monomers for enhancing the melt properties of the b-PP.

반복 단위마다 양전하를 띄고 있는 폴리(디알릴디메틸암모늄 클로라이드) (PDADMAC)와 음이온 계면활성제인 도데실 황산 소듐 (SDS)와의 상호작용을 광산란법, 탁도법 및 형광법을 이용하여 조사하였다. 0.3 M NaCl 수용액에서의 PDADMAC는 마치 좋은 용매에서 팽창되어 있는 중성 고분자처럼 존재하나, SDS를 첨가함에 따라 이들 사이의 상호작용은 두 개의 임계 응집 농도로써 기술할 수 있었다. 첫 번째, 사슬 내 임계 응집 농도에서는 하나의 고분자 사슬 내에서 SDS의 마이셀화 과정으로써 [SDS]/[DADMAC] 0.06 정도에서 일어나며, 이 복합체 크기는 오히려 마이셀 형성되기 직전에 최대 값을 나타내고, 마이셀이 형성된 후부터는 일부 고분자 사슬도 마이셀 형성에 참여하기 때문에 SDS 첨가에 따라 점차로 수축되기 시작하였다. 두 번째, 사슬간 임계 응집 농도는 탁도 법에 의해 [SDS]/[DADMAC] 0.5에서 측정되었고, 이 두 번째 임계 응집농도 이상에서는 많은 마이셀들로 장식된 고분자 사슬들 사이의 응집화에 의한 거대한 응집체가 형성된다.
