최근 신소재에 관한 연구는 첨단기술 발전에 주요한 역할을 하고 있음은 주지의 사실이며, 특히 다목적, 다기능 고분자는 여러 분야에 활용되므로 이에 관한 집중적인 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 고분자는 보통 화합물과는 달리 여러 분자량의 중합체가 분포되어 있으므로 물리-화학적 특성을 알아내기가 힘들뿐만 아니라, 이러한 고분자 물질의 분자량, 분자량 분포 등의 정보가 폭 넓게 파악되어야만 그 물질의 정확한 활용과 소재 개발이 가능하다. 특히 protein 등과 같은 생체 고분자들은 유전, 특정 반응에 작용하는 효소, 호르몬 등 수많은 연구가 진행 중에 있으나 그 분리.정제 과정은 상당히 어려우며, 경우에 따라서는 분리. 정제 과정에서 활성을 잃은 경우도 있다. 따라서 이러한 고분자들의 물성을 확인하는 과정이 최우선적으로 필요하다.

Ultrafine magnetite powder for the ferromagnetic fluid was prepared by an addition of alkaline solution to the solution containing Fe2+ and Fe3+ ions at 6$0^{\circ}C$. The optimum condition of the magnetite synthesis was delineated by examining such various physico-chemical properties as Fe2+/Fe+3 ratio in the powder, phase characteristics, MHC and $\sigma$max. A new scheme for the steric stabilization of colloidal dispersion was proposed using the concept of the buffer group action for the increased interfacial density of the stabilizing moieties at colloid particle/dispersion medium interface. The proposed concept was successfully applied to the preparation of the kinetically stable kerosinebased ferrofluid using Tween and Span as dispersants. In the dispersion of magnetite particles in a kerosine, Tween(polyoxyethylene sorbitan oleate) acts as a primary stabilizer which provides an anchor group, whereas Span(sorbitan oleate) can be classified as a secondary stabilizer which adsorbs on the surface of magnetite particle through the action of the buffer group. Dispersion studies using various quantities of Tween and Span supported the concept of the buffer group action for increased dispersion characteristics of the kerosine based ferromagnetic fluid.

Unlike existent field flow fractionation, new method, osmotic sink field flow fractionation is introduced and used ultrafiltration hollow fiber membranes as separation channel. This hollow fiber osmotic sink field flow fractionation is called HF-OSFFF. A theory that describes the retention, relaxation, resolution, plate number for the system, has been developed and experimentally verified by separation model of po1ystyrene latex beads. At external field, it is measured that radial flow rates change according to various concentrations of PEG solutions. Concentration of PEG solution vs. radial flow rate is a linear relation. For diameter distribution of unknown polymer sample, HF-OSFFF compared with the commercial capillary hydrodynamic flow fractionation (CHDF).

Phosphating treatments have been performed to improve paint adhesion and corrosion resistance of zinc and zinc alloy coated steels for a long time. In this work, the effects of the addition of chelate compound were studied to improve the stability of surface conditioning solution and properties of zinc phosphate films. The coalescence of colloidal Ti-compound and extraneous charged particles (alkaliearth metal cation such as $Mg^{2+}$ , $Ca^{2+}$ ) were suppressed by using a surface conditioning solution with chelate compound. Therefore, after surface conditioning solution containing chelate compound was left standing for one week at room temperature, the formation of a white sediment was decreased comparing to surface conditioning solution without chelate compound. The crystal size of phosphate film was fine and the whiteness value of phosphated zinc coated steel sheets was also high without the decrease of corrosion resistance and anti-patina. It was very effective to use chelate compound improving the stability of surface conditioning solution.

The surface-enhanced Raman scattering of L-phenylalanyl-glycine (L-Phe-Gly), L-phenylalanyl-glycyl-glycine (L-Phe-Gly-Gly), glycyl-glycyl-L-phenylalanine (Gly-Gly-L-Phe), L-tyrosyl-glycine (L-Tyr-Gly), and L-tyrosyl-glycyl-glycine (L-Tyr-Gly-Gly) adsorbed on silver colloidal particles have been investigated. More detailed investigations on the surface-enhanced Raman scattering from L-phenylalanine (L-Phe), glycyl-L-phenylalanine (Gly-L-Phe), L-tyrosine (L-Tyr), and glycyl-L-tyrosine (Gly-L-Tyr) than in ref. 17 have also been made. It has been found that the above molecules adsorb on the surface via both the carboxylate ($COO^-$) and amino ($NH_2$) groups.

High-transmittance film was coated by using spherical silica nano colloids. Silica colloid sol was preservred between two inclined slide glasses by capillary force, and particles were stacked to form a film onto the substrate as the upper glass was sliding. As the sliding speed increased, the thickness of the film decreased and light transmittance varied. The microstructure observed by SEM showed that silica particles were nearly close packed, which enabled the calculation of the effective refractive index of the film. The film thickness calculated from the wavelength of maximum transmittance and the effective refractive index was well coincided with the thickness observed by SEM and measured by profiler. The maximum transmittance of $94.7\%$ was obtained. This means that $97.4\%$ of transmittance or $1.3\%$ of reflectance can be achieved by simple process if both sides of the substrate are coated.

The interfacial features of suspension system made of $CaCO_3$ particles have been investigated for the purpose of designing its effective treatment process. For the examination of variation of electrokinetic potential as a function of pH. the value of potential was observed to shift in the negative direction, which was thought to be due to the adsorption of hydroxide ion on the particle surface. Adsorption of surfactant on suspended particles resulted in the change of surface charge and shift in electrokinetic potential, which was dependent upon the sign of head charge and concentration of surfactant. Addition of inorganic salts affected stability of suspension greatly and sedimentation rate of suspension was influenced by the electric valence and amount of ions produced by dissolution of inorganic coagulants. DLVO theory made it possible to construct a energy profile diagram and a close correlation was found between experimental result and theoretically derived consequences. Non-specific adsorption of indifferent electrolyte resulted in the compression of electrical double layer and specific adsorption induced the shift of IEP and PZC in the opposite direction.

Alumina-silica composite coating layers were prepared by electrophoretic deposition (EPD) of plate-shaped alumina particles dispersed in a sol-gel binder, which was prepared by hydrolysis and the condensation reaction of methyltrimethoxysilane in the presence of colloidal silica. The microstructure and the electrical and thermal properties of the coatings were compared according to the EPD process parameter: voltage, time and the content of the plate-shaped alumina particles. The electrical insulation property of the coatings was measured by a voltage test. The coatings were prepared by EPD of the sol-gel binder with 5-30 wt% plate alumina particles on parallel electrodes at a distance of 2 cm for 1-10 min under an applied voltage of 10-30 V. The coatings experienced increased breakdown voltage with increasing thickness. However, the higher the thickness was, the smaller the breakdown voltage strength was. A breakdown voltage as high as 4.6 kV was observed with a $400{\mu}m$ thickness, and a breakdown voltage strength as high as 27 kV/mm was achieved for the sample under a $100{\mu}m$ thickness.

In an original effort, this lab attempted to employ polystyrene nanoparticles as a template for the synthesis of ordered and highly porous macroporous $SiO_2$ thin films, utilizing their high combustion temperature and narrow size distribution. However, polystyrene nanoparticle thin films were not obtained due to the low interaction between individual particles and between the particle and silicon substrate. However, polystyrene-polyacrylic acid (PS-AA) colloidal particles of a core-shell structure were synthesized by a one-pot miniemulsion polymerization approach, with hydrophilic polyacrylic acid tails on the particle surface that improved interaction between individual particles and between the particle and silicon substrate. The PS-AA thin films were spin-coated in the thickness ranges from monolayer to approximately $1.0\;{\mu}m$. Using the PS-AA thin films as sacrificial templates, macroporous $SiO_2$ thin films were successfully synthesized by vapor deposition or conventional solution sol-gel infiltration methods. Inspection with field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) showed that the macroporous $SiO_2$ thin films consist of interconnected air balls (~100 nm). Typical macroporous $SiO_2$ thin films showed ultralow refractive indices ranging from 1.098 to 1.138 at 633 nm, according to the infiltration conditions, which were confirmed by spectroscopy ellipsometry (SE) measurements. This research shows how the synthetic control of the macromolecule such as hydrophilic polystyrene nanopaticles and silicate sol precursors innovates the optical properties and processabilities for actual applications.
