Recently, with a growing interest of health and environment, chitosan which was good in no harmful effect to human body and environment, has been watched as the finish treatment of hygiene and pleasantness. The purpose of this study is to develop multifunctional fabric that was improved antimicrobial activity and deodorization rate, water absorption, static voltage and dye absorption by treatment of nylon 6 grafted with acrylic acid added in chitosan. FT-IR spectra of the grafted with acrylic acid added in chitosan shows peaks of COOH and NH2. Antimicrobial activity and deodorization rate of chitosan and grafted with acrylic acid added in chitosan were increased greatly than the control, durability of laundry of grafted with acrylic acid added in chitosan was good. In case of chitosan was dyed acid dyes and grafted with acrylic acid added in chitosan was dyed basic dyes, dye absorption of them were increased than the control. Moisture regain, absorption time and tensile strength of grafted with acrylic acid added in chitosan was increased greatly than the control.

Chitosan is known to be an excellent biocompatible natural polymer. Recently, with a growing interest of health and environment, chitosan which is good in no harmful effect on human body and environment, has been watched as the finish treatment of hygiene and pleasantness. The purpose of this study is to develop multi functional fabrics by chitosan added on acrylic acid grafted cotton fabrics. Therefore physical properties such as moisture regain, air permeability, whiteness, static voltage and tensile strength of chitosan added on acrylic acid grafted cotton fabrics were investigated. The results are as follows ; According to increased chitosan's concentration, grafting yield was decreased. Therefore thickness of film by treated chitosan added on acrylic acid grafted cotton fabric became thin. FT R spectra of chitosan add on acrylic acid grafted cotton fabric clearly showed peaks of COOH and $NH_2$, Moisture regain, static voltage of chitosan add on acrylic acid grafted cotton fabrics were increased than control. Air permeability, whiteness and tensile strength were decreased than control.

In order to enhance the target action of chitosan-based drug, this paper firstly prepared phenylalanyl-glycylchitosan (Phe-Gly-CS) by grafting the key intermediate, bromoacetyl-phenylalanine (BA-Phe) onto chitosan. Then the target sugar molecule, lactobionic acid (LA), was grafted to Phe-Gly-CS and the topic compound lactobionic acid grafted phenylalanyl-glycyl-chitosan (Phe-Gly-CS-LA) was finally obtained in a yield of 78.8%. The product were characterized by FTIR, MS and 1H NMR. The preparing condition of BA-Phe was optimized as follows: the best pH was 10-11, the optimum temperature was $-4^{\circ}C$, the reaction time was 1.5 h.

By grafting acrylic acid, fumalic acid and maleic acid onto chitosan, graft copolymers, CsAa, CsFa and CsMa, respectively were prepared for potential uses as flocculants in waste water treatment. When 40 ppm of each grafted chitosan sample was added into the waste water, CsMa showed the best removal rate of COD and suspended solids(SS), followed by CsFa and CsAa and chitosan. The transmittance and removal rate of COD and SS were the highest at pH 5. All grafted chitosan exhibited better performance than chitosan itself, resulting from the amphiphilic property of grafted chitosan copolymer with carboxy groups.

To improve the blood compatibility of chitosan membranes, 2-(methacryloyloxy)-ethyl-2-(trimethylammonium)ethyl phosphate(MTP), which is a methacrylate with phospholipid polar groups, was grafted on the surface of chitosan membranes and the biocompatibility of MTP-grafted chitosan membranes was investigated. The permeation coefficient gradually decreased with increasing in molecular weights of biocomponents below 10$^{4}$, and drastically decreased above 10$^{4}$. This result corresponds with the permeability of solutes in case of hemodialysis membranes. The MTP-grafted chitosan membranes displayed less blood cell adhesion than the chitosan membranes. This may due to the formation of biomembrane4ike surface by adsorption and arrangement of phospholipid molecules from serum onto the MTP copolymer surface.

Two new chitosan derivatives, polyamine grafted chitosan copolymers have been synthesized for corrosion protection of carbon steel in acidic medium. First, methyl acrylate graft chitosan copolymer (CS-MAA) was prepared by the reaction of chitosan (CS) and methyl acrylate (MAA) via the Michael addition reaction. Then, CS-MAA was reacted with ethylene diamine (EN) and triethylene tetramine (TN) respectively to synthesize ethylene diamine grafted chitosan copolymer (CS-MAA-EN) and triethylene tetramine grafted chitosan copolymer (CS-MAA-TN), and the structures were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). At last, the corrosion inhibition activities on Q235 carbon steel were investigated by using gravimetric measurements, metallographic microscope, potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements. The compounds CS-MAA-EN and CS-MAA-TN show an appreciable corrosion inhibition property against corrosion of Q235 carbon steel in 5% HCl solution at $25^{\circ}C$. It has been observed that CS-MAA-EN shows greater corrosion inhibition efficiency than CS-MAA-TN. The inhibition efficiency of CS-MAA-EN was close to 90% when the mass fraction concentration was 0.2%~0.3%; the inhibition efficiency of CS-MAA-TN was close to 85% when the mass fraction concentration was 0.02%. The present work provided very promising results in the preparation of green corrosion inhibitors.

Chitosan, an unbranched (1-4)-linked-2-amino-2-deoxy-$\beta$-D-glucan, is prepared by chemical N-deacetylation of chitin, which is the main structure element of the cuticles of crab, shrimp, and insects, and is found in the cell walls of bacteria. It has the same main chain in its molecule like that of natural heparin. Heparin, an anionic polysaccharide, is the best of anticoagulants that have been found so far. In this study, to improve the blood compatibility of chitosan, 2-(methacrylovloxy)-ethyl-2-(trimethylammonium)ethyl phosphate(MTP) with phospholipid polar groups was grafted on the chitosan membranes and the biochemical properties the MTP-grafted chitosan membranes were investigated.

Chitosan was prepared from chitin which was abstracted from wasted crab shells. Then itaconic acid was graft-copolymerized onto chitosan using ceric ammonium nitrate as a reaction initiator. To investigate the optimal grafting conditions, the influences of several factors on the grafting were studied, i. e., the concentrations of CAN and itaconic acid, the reaction temperature and time. And to find out its flocculation ability. the flocculation test was carried out with a metal plating factory waste water. The state of graft-copolymer was identified through IR spectra analysis. The optimal grafting conditions and flocculation results were shown to be : concentration of ceric ammonium nitrate is $3.5{\times}10^3M$, reaction temperature is $40^{\circ}C$ and reaction time is 4hrs with 0.25M of the monomer(itaconic acid). Though flocculation tests using chitosan, grafted chitosan and cation, CODcr. metal ions removal rates were measured. The order of superiority is Itaconic acid grafted chitosan>Chitosan>Cationic polymer.

In this study, methotrexate (MTX)-encapsulated polymeric micelles using methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (MPEG)-grafted chitosan (ChitoPEG) copolymer were prepared. The MIX-incorporated polymeric micelles of ChitoPEG copolymer has a particle size of around 50-100 nm. In 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) study, the specific peaks of MTX disappeared in heavy water ($D_2O$) and only the specific peak of MPEG was observed, while all of the peaks were confirmed in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). These results indicated that MTX was complexed with chitosan and then formed an ion complex inner-core of the polymeric micelle in an aqueous environment. The drug contents of the polymeric micelle were around $4{\sim}12%$ and the loading efficiency of MTX in the polymeric micelles was higher than 60% (w/w) for all of the formulations. The cytotoxicity of MIX and MTX-incorporated polymeric micelle against CT26 tumor cells was not significantly changed.
