Crosslinked poly(ethylene glycol)s (PEGs) were prepared by ultraviolet irradiation of low molar mass, liquid PEGs in the presence of benzophenone (BP) as a photoinitiator. The networks obtained have been characterized by DSC, IR, and contact angle measurements, and their water absorption and equilibrium swelling have been examined. The percent of gel formed and degree of swelling of the networks in water were dependent on the amount of BP in the reaction mixture, irradiation time and molar mass of PEG. Gel fraction yield exceeded 84%, and equilibrium swelling in water varied from 49 to 244%.

Barrier ribs in the color plasma display panel(PDP) function to maintain the discharge space between to glass plates as well as to prevent optical crosstalk. Patterning of barrier ribs is one of unique processes for making PDP. In this work photosensitive barrier rib pastes were prepared by incorporating binder polymer, solvent, functional monomers photoinitiator, mid barrier rib powder. Study on the function of materials for the barrier rib paste were undertaken. After optimization of paste formulation, both photolithographic and transparent soft molding method resulted in fine pattern of barrier ribs with high aspect ratio.

Flame-retardant cotton fabrics were prepared by UV curing of photocurable aqueous formulations of phosphorous-containing methacrylate monomers and 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenyl-1-propanone as flame retardants and a photoinitiator respectively, which is an environmentally friendly and energy-saving process. The characterization of the UV-coated cotton fabric was made by ATR, TGA and limited oxygen index measurement. UV cured coating onto cotton fabrics reduced the first thermal decomposition temperature and mass loss as well as increase in the amount of char residue compared with the untreated cotton fabric presumably due to modified thermal decomposition process. The LOI values up to 28.5 and 27.2 were obtained by the UV curing of MMEP and TMEP respectively. The treatment was durable to five laundering cycles, which was more prominent in the case of trifunctional TMEP treatment.

Methacryloxypropyl trimethoxysilane (MAPTMS), a hybrid organic-inorganic monomer, was photografted onto PET fabric using benzophenone (BP) as a photoinitiator. It was found that a UV energy of 43.2J/$cm^2$ was required to optimally photograft the MAPTMS onto PET fabrics which was applied with an aqueous formulation of 10% MAPTMS, 20% BP and 0.5% N-Methyldiethanol amine (MDEA). The MDEA additive was efficient in reducing atmospheric oxygen inhibition of polymer radicals which eliminated compulsory nitrogen inerting. The surface grafting of PET fabrics was verified by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and scanning electron spectroscopy (SEM). The grafted PET fabrics with the hybrid monomer showed higher thermal stability due to the introduced silane component in the monomer as ascertained by higher char content at 800$^{\circ}C$, which increased to 14.5% for the 15.8% grafting compared to 8.2% for the untreated.

A research on scaffold fabrication has been progressed in many research groups. However, the mechanical properties of existing biodegradable materials are still not satisfactory. But, PPF (poly (propylene fumarate)) has a good mechanical property in comparison to other biodegradable materials. Nevertheless, the viscosity of the synthesized PPF is too high to fabricate structures using micro-stereolithography. Therefore, the viscosity of the resin was made low by adding the diethyl fumarate and this material could be used in micro-stereolithography apparatus. Then, a photoinitiator was added for photo crosslinking of the DEF/PPF resin. 2.5D and 3D scaffolds were fabricated our system and curing characteristics of the resin were analyzed through the experiment.

Photopolymerization of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate(HEMA), in the presence of ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate(EGDMA) and 1-Hydroxycyclohexyl phenyl ketone as crosslinker and photoinitiator, respectively, produced crosslinked poly-HEMA hydrogels. The hydrogels were colored by the exhaustion of vinylsul-phone-type reactive dyes. Good colorfastness to laundering was achieved when colored with C.I. Reactive Black 5. We investigated that the effect of coloration on the hydrophilicity and swelling properties of the films. More hydrophilic gel-surfaces were generated with in increase in coloration and crosslinking. Higher surface energy was observed with higher crosslinking level. The more rapid and higher water swellability of poly-HEMA gels after coloration may be resulted from a more opened gel structure by the easier hydration of the hydrophilic sulphonic acid groups of the reacted dyes in water.

Polysilane derivatives are attracting considerable attention as a new class of material since 1980. The preparation methods of low molecular weight, cyclic, and high molecular weight polysilane derivatives are described, and also photochemistry characteristics for silicon-silicon single bond and for the nature of the substituent on silicon backbone are discussed. Polysilanes may be used as a precursors to silicon carbide fiber, as photoresist in microelectronics, as photoconductor, and as photoinitatior for free radical polymerization.

Barrier rib for the plasma display panel (PDP) was made by photolithographic process utilizing photosensitive barrier rib paste. The barrier rib paste was prepared by first dissolving poly(MMA-co-MAA) binder polymer in butyl carbitol(BC) solvent at 15 wt% concentration. To this solution were added a mixture of functional monomers , Irgacure 651 photoinitiator, and barrier rib power and then the whole mixture was dispersed in the three roll mill for 2 hour. The effect of component and concentration of photosensitive barrier rib paste was studied. After optimization of the paste formulation and photolithographic process, barrier rib could be obtained with good resolution up to 110-120 ${\mu}m$ height and 80-90 ${\mu}m$ width.

Protection of solar cell surface is important to prevent from dust, pollen, sand, etc. Therefore, development of large area antifouling film is urgent for high performance of solar cells. The surface of silica spheres was modified to fabricate large area antifouling film. The surface of monodisperse silica spheres has been modified with 3-(trimethoxysilyl) propylmethacrylate (TMSPM) to fabricate large area photonic crystal. Although the surface modification of silica spheres with TMSPM has been failed for the base catalyst, the second trial using acid catalyst showed the following results. The FTIR absorption peak at $1721cm^{-1}$ representing C=O stretching vibration indicates that the TMSPM was attached on the surface of silica spheres. The methanol solution comprised of the surface modified silica spheres (average diameter of 380 nm) and a photoinitiator was poured in the patterned silicon wafer with the dimension of 10 cm x 10 cm and irradiated UV-light during the self-assembly process. The result showed large area crack and defect free nanostructures.

Photografting reaction onto styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) as a function of monomer concentration, irradiation time and carbon black content has been studied using ultraviolet (UV). Acrylamide and benzophenone are used as monomer and photoinitiator, respectively. FT-IR ATR and static contact angle analysis using distilled water are used to measure the graft ratio of acrylamide onto SBR surface. Graft ratio of acrylamide increases with acrylamide concentration and irradiation time and contact angle tends to decrease with increasing graft ratio. It is observed that graft ratio increases with carbon black content.
