PVA/silica hybrid xerogels were synthesized by sonohydrolysis of a mixture of 2-way catalyzed TEOS and water solution of PVA. PVA was successfully removed from the xerogels through calcination and its removal was confirmed through TGA analysis of the calcined gel. Microstructure of the gels was studied through SEM, XRD and FTIR. Nitrogen sorption studies were conducted to find out surface area of different samples. It was found out that the samples having PVA removed through calcinations have higher surface area (411.64 $m^2$/g) than the samples (353.544 $m^2$/g) synthesized without any PVA. Adsorption properties of these xerogels synthesized by using different ratios of components were studied by taking Rhodamine G6 as a model adsorbate. The experiments were conducted at room temperature ($25^{\circ}C$). UV visible spectroscopy was used to measure the concentration of the dye before and after adsorption. The adsorption data of Rhodamine G6 on PVA modified silica is described by the Freundlich's adsorption model.

This work undertook to prepare nanofibers of cellulose nanofibrils (CNF)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) composite by electrospinning, and characterize the electrospun composite nanofibers. Different contents of CNFs isolated from hardwood bleached kraft pulp (HW-BKP) by 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxy radical (TEMPO)-mediated oxidation were suspended in aqueous polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) solution, and then electrospun into CNF/PVA composite nanofibers. The morphology and dimension of CNFs were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), which revealed that CNFs were fibrillated form with the diameter of about $7.07{\pm}0.99$ nm. Morphology of the electrospun nanofiber observed by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) showed that uniform CNF/PVA composite nanofibers were manufactured at 1~3% CNF contents while many beads were observed at 5% CNF level. Both the viscosity of CNF/PVA solution and diameter of the electrospun nanofiber decreased with an increase in CNF content. The diameter and its distribution of the electrospun nanofibers helped explain the differences observed in their morphology. These results show that the electrospinning method was successful in preparing uniform CNF/PVA nanofibers, indicating a great potential for manufacturing consistent and reliable cellulose-based nanofibrils for scaffolds in future applications.

안정한 산화물 세라믹스 재료로서 mullite와 cordierite는 우수한 열적, 화학적 특성 때문에 구조재료에서부터 전자재료에 이르는 폭넓은 용도에 사용되어지고 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고, mullite는 천연에서는 산출되지 않기 때문에 합성에 의해서만 제조되고 있다. 또한, cordierite는 합성온도폭이 좁아 고순도의 미립 분말을 제조하기 어려운 재료이다. Mullite 역시 고상반응법 등의 합성법으로는 균질한 재료로의 합성이 어렵다. 그렇기 때문에 sol-gel법 등의 다양한 합성법에 의해 이들 재료에 관한 연구가 계속되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내의 원료를 이용하여 sol-gel법에서와 같은 고순도의 미립의 분말을 좀 더 낮은 온도에서 합성이 가능하며, 상대적으로 저가의 원료를 사용함으로서 경제적인 방법인 PVA를 polymer carrier로서 이용한 solution-polymerzation 합성법에 의해 mullite와 cordierite를 합성하였다. 그 결과, mullite, cordierite는 각각 120$0^{\circ}C$, 125$0^{\circ}C$에서 단일의 결정상이 생성되었으며 비표면적 20$m^2$/g 이상의 미립의 분말이 생성됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

모래 입자를 대상으로 PVA-PMAA 계의 방사능 고정화 특성을 연구하였다. PMAA의 카르복시기는 PVA에 의해 해리가 억제되는 경향을 나타내었다. PMAA의 농도가 0.082M 이하일 때, PVA-PMAA로 처리한 모래층의 투과율은 혼합 용액내에 존재하는 PMAA의 농도에 정비례하고, 실험으로부터 얻은 비례 상수(k)는 -8.95$\times$10￣$^4$$cm^{5}$ /mole 이다. 투과도의 변화를 두 고분자 사이의 상호 작용에 의해 거대 분자간 착물이 형성됨에 의한 것으로 설명할 수 있었다. 모래 표면에 형성된 고분자 가교는 모래 입자들을 더욱 견고하게 부착시키는 것으로 나타났다. 본 계의 이온성 방사성 핵종에 대한 고정화 능력은 PVA를 단독 적용한 경우에 비하여 우수하다.

This study compared dip-coating and in situ polymerization methods for the development of nanofiber-based E-textile using polypyrrole. Nanofiber webs were fabricated by electrospinning an aqueous poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) solution. Subsequently, the PVA nanofiber web underwent thermal treatment to improve water resistance. Dip-coating and in situ polymerization methods were used to deposit polypyrrole on the surfaces of the nanofiber web. An FE-SEM analysis was also conducted to examine specimen surface characteristics along with EDS and FT-IR that analyzed the chemical bonding between polypyrrole and specimens. The line resistance and sheet resistance of the treated specimens were measured. Finally, an electrocardiogram (ECG) was measured with textile sensors made of the polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs. The polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs fabricated by dip-coating dissolved in the dip-coating solution and indicated damage to the nanofibers. However, in the case of in situ polymerization, polypyrrole nanoparticles were deposited on the surface and inter-web structure of the PVA nanofiber web. The resistance measurements indicated that polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs fabricated by in situ polymerization with an average sheet resistance of 5.3 k(Ω/□). Polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs fabricated by dip-coating showed an average sheet resistance of 57.3 k(Ω/□). Polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofibers fabricated by in situ polymerization showed a lower line and sheet resistance; in addition, they detected the electrical activity of the heart during ECG measurements. The electrodes made from polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs by in situ polymerization showed the best performance for sensing ECG signals among the evaluated specimens.

Poly(acrylic acid) (PAA)로 가교된 Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)에 Na-Y 제올라이트 입자를 첨가하여 투과증발막을 제조하였다. 적외선 분광 분석(FT-IR), 팽윤 실험, 접촉각 측정, SEM 및 XRD 분석을 통해 분리막의 특성을 연구하였으며, 제조된 분리막은 물/아세트산 혼합물의 투과증발 분리에 적용하였다. 연구결과 분리막에 첨가된 Na-Y 제올라이트의 함량이 증가함에 따라 분리막의 친수성이 증가하였으며, 제올라이트가 첨가된 PVA/PAA분리막은 제올라이트가 첨가되지 않은 분리막에 비해 높은 투과도를 나타내었다. 10 wt% 아세트산 수용액에서 8 wt%의 제올라이트가 포함된 PVA/PAA 분리막이 가장 높은 선택도와 투과도를 나타내었다.

High water vapor permeable coating materials were prepared by blending aqueous poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) solution with waterborne polyurethane-urea (WBPU) dispersions synthesized by prepolymer mixing process. Stable WBPU/PVA dispersions were achieved at PVA content below 30 wt%. As the water soluble polymer PVA content increased, the number and density of total micro-pores (tunnel-like/isolated micro-pores) formed after the dissolution of PVA in water increased, and the water vapor permeability of coated Nylon fabric also increased significantly. Using WBPU/water soluble polymer PVA blends as a coating material and then dissolving PVA in water was confirmed to be an effective method to obtain prominent breathable fabrics.

The suspension polymerization of styrene was carried out to obtain the narrow-size distribution of particle by using poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) as suspension stabilizer according to the degree of hydrolysis and the molecular weight. The stabilizing properties of suspension are also dependent on the interfacial tension of aqueous solution when PVA is added. When the polymerization process was carried out with low hydrolyzed PVA, it gave single, well-defined particles, while high hydrolyzed PVA gave clusters. The size of particle produced in this study ranged between 5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and 10${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The suspending agent, PVA, influences on the drop size and drop stability, When the molecular weight of PVA is increased, the drop size decreases and the drops become more stable toward coalescence. An increase in the PVA concentration decreases the mean drop size and narrows the drop size distribution.

Blends of collagen dispersion (COL) with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) in different weight ratios were investigated by oscillatory rheometry, Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. It was found that even with 80% of PVA, the COL/PVA blends behaved more like collagen dispersion than pure PVA solution in the dynamic thermal and frequency processing, for instance, a dominant elastic appearance (G'>G"), a similar shear thinning behavior and the thermal denaturation below $40^{\circ}C$. However, influence on the blend behaviour by PVA was noticeable, for instance, an increase of dynamic denaturation temperature, the decreasing intensity of amide I, II and III bands as well as the diminishing irregular pores on the surface of blends. The interaction between collagen and PVA could be observed, especially at the regions with low content or high content of PVA.
