An attempt was made to correlate the polymerization temperature and rheological and thermal properties of acrylonitrile (AN)-acrylamide (AM) copolymers. The copolymers were synthesized at different polymerization temperature. The copolymer structure was characterized by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and Infrared spectrum (IR). The rheological and thermal properties were investigated by a viscometer and differential scanning calorimeter-thermogrametric (DSC-TG) analysis, respectively. When the polymerization temperature increased from $41^{\circ}C\;to\;65^{\circ}C$, the molecular weight $(\bar{M}_w)$ of copolymers decreased from 1,090,000 to 250,000, while its conversion increased from $18\%\;to\;63\%$, and the polymer composition changed slightly. To meet the requirements of carbon fibers, the rheological and thermal properties of products were also investigated. It was found that the relationship between viscosity and $\bar{M}_w$ was nonlinear and the viscosity index (n) decreased from 3.13 to 2.69, when the solution temperature increased from $30^{\circ}C\;to\;65^{\circ}C$. This suggests the dependence of viscosity upon $\bar{M}_w$ is higher at lower solution temperature. According to the result of activation energy, the sensivity of viscosity to solution temperature is higher for AN-AM copolymers synthesized at higher polymerization temperature. The result of thermal analysis shows that the copolymers obtained at higher polymerization temperature are easier to cyclization evidenced from lower initiation temperature. The weight loss behavior changed irregularly with polymerization temperature due to irregular change of liberation heat.

SPG 막유화법에 의해 NIPAAm, MBA 및 APS를 용해시킨 수용액을 톨루엔과 미네랄오일의 혼합용액인 연속상에 HMP, Span80과 함께 유화(W/O emulsion)시킨 후, UV광중합법에 의해 PNIPAAm 하이드로젤 입자를 제조하였다. 연속상 내 미네랄 오일의 비율이 증가할수록, PNIPAAm 하이드로젤의 입도와 입자 내 PNIPAAm의 밀도가 증가하였으며, 이에 따라서 VPTT 근처에서 온도 변화에 따른 하이드로젤의 팽윤도($V/V_o$)도 크게 변화하였다. UV 광중합 시 $20^{\circ}C$에서는 속이 꽉찬 형태의 하이드로젤이 제조되었으나 LCST보다 높은 $40^{\circ}C$의 온도에서는 공동입자에서와 같이 하이드로젤의 외벽이 두껍게 형성되었다. 가교제인 MBA의 함량이 증가함에 따라서 가교도 및 입자 내 PNIPAAm의 밀도도 함께 증가하였다.

Chitosan is normally acylated and subsequently conjugated with drugs for biomedical applications. This study examined the relationship between the succinylation and gelation behaviors of glycol chitosan. Glycol chitosan was acylated with succinic anhydride under a wide variety of reaction conditions, such as different molar ratios of succinic anhydride to glucosamine, different methanol content in the reaction media, and different reaction temperatures. Among these reaction parameters, the methanol content in the solvent played an important role in determining the regioseletive succinylating site. N-succinylation and N-N cross-linking occurred regardless of the reaction conditions. However, O-succinylation was observed under specific conditions, i.e. a methanol content> 0.6 (v/v) and a reaction temperature> $25^{\circ}C$. O-succinylation accelerated the N-O cross-linking of glycol chitosan, and led to gelation. The N-succinylated glycol chitosans were water-soluble, whereas the N-and O-succinylated glycol chitosans fonned a gel. These physico-chemical structural differences in the succinylated glycol chitosans would definitely influence subsequent drug-conjugation reactions and consequently the drug loading and release kinetics.

담배거세미나방(Spodoptera litura: SI), 누에(Bombyx mori: Bm) 및 흰불나방(Hyphantria cunea : Hc)으로부터 분리된 핵다각체병 바이러스(nuclear polyhedrosis virus : NPV)의 다각체의 단백질의 특성과 그에 대한 alkaline protease의 영향을 SDS-PAGE 및 혈정학적 방법으로 분석했다. Alkaline protease를 부활화시킨 후 다가체 단백질을 SDS-PAGE한 결과, BmNPV의 경우 30kD, SINPV와 HcNPV는 31kD의 단일 major band 및 이것들의 종합체(polymer)인 57kD와 66kD의 minor band들이 관찰되었다. Alkaline protease의 부활화를 성략한 SI NPV 다각체를 알칼리 용액으로 시간 차이를 두고 처리한 후 SDS-PAGE한 결고, 알칼리 처리시간이 경과함에 따라서 alkaline protease활성에 의해 다각체 단백질이 일정한 pattern으로 저분자화됨이 뚜렷하였다. SINPV 와 BmNPV 다각체 단백질의 항체를 제조하여 SINPV, BmNPV및 HcNPV 다각체 단백질간의 혈정학적 상동성을 이중형역광산법과 Western blot으로 비교한 결과는 3종 모두에서 공통 antigenic determinants의 존재가 인정되었으며 major 다각체 단백질의 종합체 형성과 alkaline protease에 의한 분해를 확인했다.

Facile immobilization of growth factors in hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogels using dual enzymes is reported in the paper. The hydrogels were formed by using horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) and transforming growth factor-${\beta}3$ (TGF-${\beta}3$) was covalently conjugated on the hydrogels in situ using tyrosinase (Ty) without any modifications. For the preparation of hydrogels, HA was grafted with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), which was modified with a tyrosine. The gelation times of the HA hydrogels were ranging from 415 to 17 s and the storage moduli was dependent on the concentration of $H_2O_2$ and Ty (470-1600 Pa). A native TGF-${\beta}3$ (200 ng/mL) was readily encapsulated in the HA hydrogels and 17% of the TGF-${\beta}3$ was released over 1 month at the Ty concentration of 0.5 KU/mL, while the release was faster when 0.3 KU/mL of Ty was used for the encapsulation (27%). It can be suggested that the growth factors resident in the hydrogels for a long period of time may lead cells proliferating and differentiating, whereas the growth factors that are initially released from the hydrogels can induce the ingrowth of cells into the matrices. Therefore, the dual enzymatic methods as facile gel forming and loading of various native growth factors or therapeutic proteins could be highly promising for tissue regenerative medicines.

Tris(2-phenylphenoxo)aluminum ($(2-PhC_6H_4O)_3Al$) exists as a dimeric form in toluene. When toluene-insoluble anhydrous cobalt acetate is treated with tris(2-phenylphenoxo)aluminum in toluene, the toluene-soluble adduct $(2-PhC_6H_4O)_3Al{\cdot}Co(OAc)_2$ is formed. The 2-phenylphenoxo ligand in the adduct can be replaced with another aryloxo ligand to give (aryloxo)$(2-PhC_6H_4O)_2Al{\cdot}Co(OAc)_2$ (aryloxo = 2-methylphenoxo, 2-isopropylphenoxo, 4-methylphenoxo, 4-isopropylphenoxo, or 4-tert-butylphenoxo). These complexes are active for butadiene polymerization without gel formation when activated with an equivalent amount of $(2-PhC_6H_4O)AlEt_2$ for 2 h. The highest activity, 175 kg/mol-Co (turnover number, 3200) was achieved with $(2-PhC_6H_4O)_3Al{\cdot}Co(OAc)_2$ at $65^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. The microstructure of the polymer chains is mostly trans-1,4-configuration (70-75%) with the remaining being 1,2-vinyl. The cis-1,4-configuration observed by IR is minimal (1-5%). By replacing the 2-phenylpheoxo with a 4-alkylphenoxo ligand, the amount of 1,4-configuration slightly increases, resulting in increase in the endothermic melting signal at $-30{\sim}50^{\circ}C$ in the DSC curve. The molecular weights of the polymers are high ($M_n$: 300000~800000) with a fairly narrow molecular weight distribution ($M_w/M_n$, 2.0-2.7).

Polypropylene(PP)을 지지막으로 하여 in-situ 가교결합(cross-linking)방식을 이용한 pore-filled 이온교환막을 제조하였다. 다공성 PP막의 기공에 poly(vinylbenzyl chloride)(PVBCI)과 piperazine(PIP), 또는 1,4-diaminobicyclo [2,2,2]octane(DABCO)을 dimethylforamid(DMF)에 녹인 용액을 채워서 겔화시킨 후, 남아있는 chloromethyl 그룹에 trimethylamine을 이용하여 양이온인 암모니움 site를 형성시키면 pore-filled 음이온교환막이 형성된다. 이와 같은 2단계의 제조방식으로 제조된 pore-filled 분리막은 크기의 변화가 없이 안정되며, PVBCI의 농도와 가교제의 농도로써 고분자-겔의 함량(mass gain, MG)과 가교도가 간단하게 조절되는 것을 보여주었다. 특히 아주 낮은 압력(100 kPa)에서의 높은 수투과도(7.9kg/$m^2$hr, 지지막은 PP3, 73%의 MG, 10%의 가교도, PIP 가교제사용)는 연수용 분리막으로 충분히 활용될 수 있음을 보여준다.

고분자 필름의 친수성을 향상시키기 위하여 우수한 친수성을 보이는 코팅 용액을 졸-겔법으로 합성하였다. 코팅 용액은 입자 직경이 15 nm 크기의 콜로이드 실리카에 다양한 실란커플링제인 아미노실란, 에폭시실란과 아크릴실란을 각각 반응시켜 제조하였다. 콜로이드 실리카에 아미노실란을 첨가한 코팅 용액은 바로 겔화가 진행되어 코팅 용액을 제조할 수 없었다. 반면에 에폭시실란을 첨가한 코팅 용액은 실란커플링제/콜로이드 실리카의 질량분율(R값)이 0.10~0.15에서 접촉각 $10{\sim}15^{\circ}$의 우수한 친수성을 나타내었다. 또한 아크릴실란을 첨가한 코팅 용액은 R값이 0.03~0.07에서 $5{\sim}10^{\circ}$의 접촉각을 나타내어 아미노실란과 에폭시실란을 사용했을 때 보다 우수한 친수성을 나타내었다.

A silica-magnesium bisupport (SMB) was prepared by a sol-gel method for use as a support for a metal-locene/Ziegler-Natta hybrid catalyst. The prepared $rac-Et(Ind)_2ZrCl_2/TiCl_4$/MAO(methylaluminoxane)/SMB catalyst was applied to the copolymerization of ethylene with l-hexene using a variable triethylaluminum (TEA)/transition-metal (Ti) ratio and fixed MAO/transition-metal (Zr) ratio. The effect of the Al(TEA)/Ti ratio on the physical properties and chemical composition distributions (CCDs) of the ethylene-hexene copolymers produced by the hybrid catalyst was investigated. In the ethylene-hexene copolymers, two melting temperatures attributed to the metal-locene and Ziegler-Natta catalysts were clearly observed. The number of CCD peaks was increased from six to seven and the temperature region in which the peaks for the short chain branches of the ethylene-hexene copolymer were distributed became lower as the Al(TEA)/Ti ratio was increased from 300 to 400. Furthermore, the temperature regions corresponding to the lamellas in the copolymer became lower and those corresponding to the small lamellas in the copolymer became higher as the Al(TEA)/Ti ratio was increased from 300 to 400. In the copolymer produced with Al(TEA)/Ti = 500, however, only four CCD peaks were observed and the short chain branches were poorly distributed.
