In this study, a low-heat additive with a crosslink structure was dispersed in asphalt to simultaneously lower the production temperature of, and to modify the asphalt binder. This low-heat additive was prepared by different feeding ratios of styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) and polyvinylchloride (PVC) as polymer modifiers, and ZnO as a crosslinking agent. In order to confirm the crosslinking density and compatibility of the crosslink structured low-heat additive with asphalt, surface free energy, swelling ratio, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and scanning electron microscope (SEM) parameters were carefully investigated to examine this relationship, and the role of the crosslink structured low-heat additive. In addition, by measuring the penetration and softening point of the asphalt binder, it was confirmed that it corresponds to PG 64-22. With increasing ZnO in the crosslink structured low-heat additive, the swelling ratio decreased, leading to an increase in crosslinking density. The crosslink structured low-heat additive and the asphalt binder were found to be compatible with each other by DSC and SEM analysis.

In this study, the effect of the cure, mechanical properties, and oil resistance of NBR (acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber)/peroxide compounds were investigated for various co-agents. NBR compounds were characterized using a swelling test, a rheometer (MDR), and a compression set test. Mechanical properties were tested with original compounds, heated in air and exposed to the ASTM No.1, IRM 903 oil. NBR compounds were prepared using peroxide as the crosslinking agent. Trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TMPTMA), triallyl isocyanurate (TAIC), and 1,2-polybutadiene (HVPBD) were used as co-agents. The NBR compounds containing TMPTMA and HVPBD lowered the scorch time, while the addition of TAIC did not significantly change the scorch time. NBR compounds containing TMPTMA increased the crosslinking density, while the addition of TAIC and HVPBD lowered the crosslinking density. Moreover, the addition of TMPTMA improved the oil resistance of the NBR compound.

Chondroitin sulfate/gelatin microspheres containing dexamethasone 21-acetate were prepared by complex coacervation method and their release patterns were examined in vitro. Microspheres prepared with a small amount of crosslinking agent had smooth surface and few pores, but those with a large amount of crosslinking agent were more porous and less spherical. In vitro release patterns were varied by changing polymer/drug weight ratio and amount of crosslinking agent. The release rate of dexamethasone 21-acetate in the presence of collagenase was faster than that in the absence of collagenase. Anti-inflammatory effect of dexamethasone 21-acetate microspheres was more efficient than that of dexamethasone 21-acetate solution in carrageenan-induced arthritis in the rat. On the basis of the above results, we might expect the degradation and drug release rate of these microspheres to be regulated by the degree of crosslinking and the level of enzymes. In patients with severe rheumatoid arthritis who have high concentration of collagenase, more drug would be released from the microspheres. An intra-articular injection therapy of rheumatoid arthritis with desired release kinetics could be developed to enhance patient compliance and therapeutic index.

고농도의 초산수용액을 분리 농축하기 위해 polyacrylonitrile (PAN) 중공사 복합막을 제조한 후 투과증발 분리실험을 통해 제조된 복합막의 분리성능을 확인하였다. 제조된 중공사 복합막의 코팅여부를 알아보고자 SEM 사진을 측정하였으며 코팅두께가 $3.85{\mu}m$로 균일하게 코팅된 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 막의 투과성능평가 실험을 수행한 결과 가교제의 농도와 가교온도가 증가함에 따라 투과도는 감소하고 선택도는 증가하는 경향을 나타내었고, 대표적인 결과로 가교제인 glutaraldehyde 농도 13 wt%, 가교온도 $140^{\circ}C$에서 투과도 $250g/m^2{\cdot}hr$, 선택도 13의 결과를 얻을 수 있었으며, 또 다른 가교제로서 poly (acrylic acid) 농도 9 wt%, 가교온도 $140^{\circ}C$일 때 투과도 $330g/m^2{\cdot}hr$, 선택도 9의 값을 얻을 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 CSM 에멀젼의 물성을 향상시키고자 금속성 가교제인 magnesium carbonate 및 calcium hydroxide를 첨가하여 가교밀도, 열적특성, 표면자유에너지 그리고 인장강도, 파단신율 및 인열강도 특성을 고찰하였다, 금속성 가교제인 magnesium carbonate 및 calcium hyroxide 양이 증가함에 따라 CSM 에멀젼 필름은 가교밀도는 증가하였고, 이에 내수성과 $T_g$ 값도 증가하였다. 금속성 가교제로 magnesium carbonate를 첨가하였을 때 calcium hydroxide에 비해서 다소 높은 가교밀도와 $T_g$ 값을 보였다. 하지만 CSM 에멀젼 필름의 표면에너지 및 기계적 특성들은 다소 다른 거동을 보였다. Magnesium carbonate 0.75% 그리고 calcium hydroxide 1.0% 첨가한 경우가 가장 높은 표면 자유에너지 값과 인장강도 및 인열강도를 보였으나, 그 이상의 양을 첨가하였을 경우에는 오히려 감소함을 확인하였다. 그러므로 본 연구에서 CSM 에멀젼의 물성을 향상시키는데 적용되는 금속성 가교제로서 calcium hydroxide 보다 magnesium carbonate가 더 적당하며, 0.75% 첨가하였을 때 보다 향상된 물성을 얻을 수 있었다.

One-step seeded polymerization was used to prepare $7{\sim}10{\mu}m$ of crosslinked monodisperse spheres with four crosslinking agents using $4.68{\mu}m$ poly(methyl methacrylate)(PMMA) seed particles in aqueous-alcoholic media in the absence of the swelling process. The crosslinking agents used were ethylene glycol dimethacrylate(EGDMA), allyl methacrylate(AMA), 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate(HDDA) and trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate(TMPTMA). The effects of the type and concentration of the crosslinking agents on the swelling, pore size, thermal property of the networks and morphology of the particles were studied. The chemical structures and concentrations of the crosslinking agents affected both the swelling ratio and the porosity of the networks. In addition, the chemistry of the reactive vinyl group and chain length of the crosslinking agents affected the stability of the monodisperse particles of the ultimate morphology.

본 연구에서는 EVA 에멀젼에 내수성 및 기계적 특성을 향상시키기 위하여 금속 이온 가교제인 calcium hydroxide 및 magnesium carbonate를 사용하여 이온성 가교결합을 도입하였다. EVA 에멀젼 필름의 가교밀도, 열적특성, 표면자유에너지 그리고 인장강도, 파단신율 및 인열강도 특성을 고찰하였다. 금속 이온 가교제 양이 증가함에 따라 EVA 에멀젼의 가교밀도는 증가하였고, 이에 내수성과 $T_g$ 값도 증가하였다. 그러나 EVA 에멀젼 필름의 표면에너지 및 기계적 특성들은 다소 다른 거동을 보였다. Calcium hydroxide 0.4% 그리고 magnesium carbonate 0.5%를 첨가한 경우가 EVA 에멀젼에 강한 이온성 가교결합이 형성되어 가장 높은 표면 자유에너지 값과 인장강도 및 인열강도를 보였다. 그러므로 본 연구에서 calcium hydroxide 및 magnesium carbonate와 같은 금속 이온 가교제가 EVA 에멀젼의 내수성과 기계적 물성을 향상시킴을 확인하였다.

Chitosan is the affinitive finishing agent and gives susceptible effect in textile finishing. In order to examine the modification of polyester fabric treated with chitosan, we observed the characteristic of polyester fabric surface and measured its physical properties. For the purpose of confirming the adhesion of cationic material, we made a comparative study on anionic acid dye. The fabric was treated with crosslinking agent after chitosan finishing. Glutardialdehyde as crosslinking agent was used to improve the fixation rate of chitosan on the polyester fabric. And the US value was increased according to increasing of chitosan concentration. As the concentration of crosslinking agent was increased, whiteness index of the fabric chitosan treated was increased. Moisture regain of the fabric treated with $1\%$ chitosan was doubled and that treated with $2\%$ chitosan was tripled comparing with original fabric. Tensile strength of the chitosan treated fabric had been an increase of $10\%$ compared with alkali treated fabric and crease resistance decreased regardless of chitosan concentration.

Electron beam-induced crosslinking of polycaprolactone (PCL) films containing various crosslinking agents (CAs) was investigated in this study. PCL films containing various CAs prepared by a solution casting method were irradiated by electron beams at various absorption doses and the irradiated PCL films were investigated in terms of their crosslinking degree, thermal and mechanical properties, and biodegradability. Based on the results of the crosslinking degree measurement, triallyl isocyanurate was found to be most effective for the electron-beam induced crosslinking of PCL films. The results of the UTM, DMA, and TMA revealed that the thermal and mechanical properties of the crosslinked PCL films were greatly improved in comparison to those of the pure PCL. The results of the enzymatic degradation test revealed that the biodegradability of the crosslinked PCL films was reduced in comparison to that of the pure PCL.
