LICA technique evolved as a basic fabrication process fur micro-structure. The present report deals with the basic technological features in the sequence of the LIGA technique such as deep x-ray lithography(DXRL), electroplating, and moulding processes at Pohang Light Source (PLS). We designed 3-D structured master for fabrication of polymeric optical wavegude and manufactured polymeric optical wavegude with the same using hot embossing process. Polymeric optical waveguide could be produced with ${\pm}$ 1 $\mu\textrm{m}$ accuracy and good surface roughness.

Hyperbranched polysiloxysilanes (HBPSs), with a variety of terminal functional groups (vinyl, epoxy, carboxyl and hydroxyl), were synthesized by the self-polymerization of an $AB_3$ type monomer of tris(dimethylvinylsiloxy) silane, with subsequent end-functionalizations, such as epoxidation and radical addition reaction, respectively. The ratio of the $\alpha-and$ $\beta-addition$ linkages in the HBPS polymerized by hydrosilylation of the $AB_3$ monomer was found to be approximately 1 to 3. The thermal stability and solubility were affected by the terminal functional groups.

Then we will introduce our effort to overcome these problems mostly by synthesizing new materials. We obtained a variety of newly synthesized compounds showing the $SmAP_R$ phase. Mixing was effective to decrease and widening the temperature range of the $SmAP_R$ phase.

Flashover of power transmission line insulators is a major threat to the reliable operation of power system. This paper deals with the flashover prediction of polymeric insulators used in power transmission line applications using the novel condition monitoring technique developed by PD signal time-frequency map and neural network technique. Laboratory experiments on polymeric insulators were carried out as per IEC 60507 under AC voltage, at different humidity and contamination levels using NaCl as a contaminant. Partial discharge signals were acquired using advanced ultra wide band detection system. Salient features from the Time-Frequency map and PRPD pattern at different pollution levels were extracted. The flashover prediction of polymeric insulators was automated using artificial neural network (ANN) with back propagation algorithm (BPA). From the results, it can be speculated that PD signal feature extraction along with back propagation classification is a well suited technique to predict flashover of polymeric insulators.

Multiblock copolymers consisting of poly( g-benzyl L-glutamate) (PBLG) as the hydrophobic part and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) as the hydrophilic part (GEG) were synthesized and characterized. GEG polymeric micelles were prepared by the dialysis technique. Particle size distributions based on intensity,volume, and number-average were 22.6 $\pm$ 11.9 nm, 23.5 $\pm$ 4.6 nm, and 23.7 $\pm$ 37 nm, respectively. It was observed that par-ticle size and size distribution of GEG polymeric micelles changed significantly with the choice of initial sol-vent. Transmission electron micrographs (TEM) showed the polymeric micelles to be spherically shaped, with sizes ranging from 20 nm to 40 nm in diameter. Fluorescence spectroscopy measurements suggested that GEG block copolymers wereassociated in water to form polymeric micelles, and the critical micelle concentrations (CMC) value of the block copolymers was 0.0094 g/L. Further evidenceof micelle formation of GEG block copolymers and limited mobility of the PBLG chain in the core ohe micelle was obtained with 1 H NMR in D2O.

고분자 유화제를 2-에틸헥실 아크릴레이트와 n-부틸 아크릴레이트 그리고 아크릴산 단량체를 사용하여 단량체 조성과 분자량을 변화시켜 용액중합에 의해서 합성하였다. 합성된 고분자 유화제를 이용하여 반연속식 유화중합을 통해 수성 아크릴 에멀션 점착제를 제조하였다. 그 결과, 입자크기는 약 145 nm 정도로 전형적인 유화제에 비해 상대적으로 작게 나타났고, 입자크기분포도는 단분산적 형태를 보였다. 에멀션을 이용한 동결-해빙 시험결과 기존 유화제를 사용한 경우 2회 반복 후 응집이 발견되었으나, 고분자 유화제의 경우 7회 반복 후에도 응집이 보이지 않아 저장안정성이 매우 우수함을 나타냈다. 접착시험 결과 초기점착력과 점착력은 고분자 유화제의 분자량이 증가함에 따라 또한 아크릴산 함량이 높을수록 감소하는 경향을 나타내었고, 반면 유지력은 증가하였다.

The general objective of the present study was to investigate the potential application of the UV spectroscopic method for determination of the polymeric additives present in papermaking fibrous stock solutions. The study also intended to establish the surface-chemical retention model associated with the adsorption kinetics of additives on fiber surfaces. Polyamide epichlorohydrin (PAE) wet strength resin and imidazolinium quaternary (IZQ) softening agents were selected to evaluate the analytical method. Concentrations of PAE and IZQ in solution were proportional to the UV absorption at 314 and 400 nm, respectively. The time-dependent behavior of polymeric additives obeyed a mono-molecular layer adsorption as characterized in Langmuir-type expression. The kinetic modeling for polymeric adsorption on fiber surfaces was based on a concept that polymeric adsorption on fiber surfaces has two distinguishable stages including initial dynamic adsorption phase and the final near-equilibrium state. The simulation model predicted not only the real-time additive adsorption behavior for polymeric additives at high accuracy once the kinetic parameters were determined, but showed a good agreement with the experimental data. The spectroscopic method examined on the PAE and IZQ adsorption study could potentially be considered as an effective tool for the wet-end retention control as applied to the paper industry.

Block copolymers consisting of poly(rbenzyl L-glutamate) (PBLG) as the hydrophobic part and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) as the hydrophilic part were synthesized and characterized. Polymeric micelles of the block copolymers (abbreviated GEG) were prepared by a dialysis method. The GEG block copolymers were associated in water to form polymeric micelles, and the critical micelle concentration (CMC) values of the block copolymers decreased with increasing PBLG chain length in the block copolymers. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations revealed polymeric micelles of spherical shapes. From dynamic light scattering (DLS) study, sizes of polymeric micelles of GEG-1, GEG-2, and GEG-3 copolymer were 106.5±59.2 nm, 79.4±46.0 nm, and 37.9±13.3 nm, respectively. The drug loading contents of GEG-1, GEG-2 and GEG-3 polymeric micelles were 12.6, 11.9, and 11.0 wt %, respectively. These results indicated that the drugloading contents were dependent on PBLG chain length in the copolymer; the longer the PBLG chain length, the more the drug-loading contents. Release of norfloxacin (NFX) from the nanoparticles was slower in higher loading contents of NFX than in lower loading contents due to the hydrophobic interaction between PBLG core and NFX.

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries are one of attractive energy conversion and storage system based on high theoretical specific capacity and energy density with low costs. However, volatile nature of elemental sulfur is one of critical problem for their practical acceptance in industry because it considerably affects electrode uniformity during electrode manufacturing. In this work, polymeric sulfur composite consisting of ionic liquid (IL) are suggested to reduce volatility nature of elemental sulfur, resulting in better processibility of the Li-S cell. According to systematic spectroscopic analysis, it is found that polymeric sulfur is consisting of repeating units combining with elemental sulfur and volatility of them is negligible even at high temperature. In addition, the IL-embedded polymeric sulfur shows moderate cycle performance compared to the cell with elemental sulfur. From these results, it is found that the IL-embedded polymeric sulfur composite is applicable cathode candidate for the Li-S cell based on their excellent non-volatility as well as their superior electrochemical performance.

리튬이차전지 실리콘 전극에 활용하기 위해, 유기용매에 용해성이 있는 폴리이미드(Polyimide, PI) 고분자 바인더를 두 단계 반응을 이용해 합성하였다. 두 가지 단량체(Bicyclo[2,2,2]oct-7-ene-2,3,5,6-tetracarboxylic Dianhydride (BCDA)와 4,4-oxydianiline (ODA))의 개환 반응 및 축합 반응을 통해 PI 고분자 바인더를 합성하였다. 합성된 PI 고분자 바인더를 이용해 실리콘(silicon, Si) 음극 전극을 제조하였다. 또한 비교군으로써, Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF)을 고분자 바인더로 사용하는 동일 조성을 가진 실리콘 전극을 제조하였다. PI 바인더를 사용한 Si 전극($2167mAh\;g^{-1}$)의 초기 쿨롱 효율은 기존 PVDF 바인더 조성의 Si 전극($1,740mAh\;g^{-1}$)과 유사했지만, 방전용량은 크게 개선되었다. 특히 수명 특성에서는 PI 바인더를 사용한 Si 전극이 우수한 특성을 나타내었는데, 이는 PI 바인더를 사용한 Si 전극접착력($0.217kN\;m^{-1}$)의 전극 접착력이 PVDF를 사용한 Si 전극($0.185kN\;m^{-1}$)보다 높아, 실리콘 부피팽창에 의한 전극 구조 열화가 적절히 제어되었기 때문이라고 판단된다. Si 전극 내의 접착력은 surface and interfacial cutting analysis system (SAICAS) 장비를 통해 검증하였다.
