Polyelectrolyte titration, which was called colloid titration is based on the stoichiometric reaction between oppositely charged polyelectrolytes, This can be used, for instance, to determine the charge density of a cationic polyelectrolyte, using an anionic polyelectrolyte of known charge density, such as potassium polyvinyl sulfate (PPVS). The technique requires a suitable method of end-point detection and there are several possibilities. In this work, two methods have been investigated: visual titrimetry based on the color change of a cationic dye (o-toluidine blue, o-Tb) and spectrophotometry based on the absorbance change corresponding to the color change of the same dye. These have been applied to several cationic polyelectrolytes with different charge density and molecular weight. In all cases, the cationic charge was due to quaternary nitrogen groups. In the case of cationic dye, it was shown that the sharpness depends on the charge density of cationic polyelectrolyte. With the polyelectrolytes of lower charge density, the binding to PPVS is weaker and binding of the dye to PPVS can occur before all of the polyelectrolyte charge has been neutralized. However, by carrying out titrations at several polyelectrolyte concentrations, good linear relationships were found, from which reliable charge density values could be derived. Effects of pH and ionic strength were also briefly investigated. For cationic polyelectrolytes (copolymers of acrylamide and dimethylaminoethy] acrylate), there was some loss of charge at higher pH values, probably as a result of hydrolysis. Increasing ionic strength causes a less distinct color change of o-Tb, as a result of weaker electrostatic interactions.

Removable protective adhesives for automobiles were synthesized by an emulsion polymerization of monomers such as n-butyl acrylate (BA), n-butyl methacrylate (BMA), acrylonitrile (AN), acrylic acid (AA) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (2-HEMA), in which AA and 2-HEMA were functional monomers. Potassium persulfate (KPS) was used as an initiator and sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) was used as an emulsifier, and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) was used as a stabilizer. Emulsion polymerization was carried out in a semi-batch type reactor. Tensile strength, extension, peel strength, viscosity and solid content of the synthesized adhesives were tested. The optimum physical properties of the removable protective adhesives for automobiles were obtained with the composition of 0.43 mole BA, 0.57 mole AN, 0.21 mole BMA, 0.03 mole AA, and 0.03 mole 2-HEMA.

Acrylic adhesives for automobiles protection were prepared by emulsion polymerization. Monomers used were n-butyl acrylate(BA), acrylonitrile (AN), butyl methacrylate(BMA), glycidyl methacrylate(GMA), and acrylic acid (AA). Emulsifiers used were sodium lauryl sulfate and polyoxyethylene lauryl ether, which are an anionic emulsifier and a nonionic emulsifier respectively. Potassium persulfate was used as an initiator and polyvinyl alcohol was used as a stabilizer. Emulsion polymerization was carried out in a semi-batch reactor at $70^{\circ}C$ and agitation speed was kept at 200 rpm. Water resistance, heat resistance, acid resistance, alkali resistance and smoke resistance were examined. As a result, when each 0.03 mole of GMA and AA was introduced, the adhesion properties and various above mentioned resistances of the prepared adhesives were satisfied the standard for automobiles.

This study was conducted to prepare acrylic removable protective coatings by emulsion polymerization. Monomers used were n-butyl acrylate, acrylonitrile, butyl methacrylate. Emulsifiers used were sodium lauryl sulfate and polyoxyethylene lauryl ether, which are an anionic emulsifier and a nonionic emulsifier respectively. Potassium persulfate was used as an initiator and polyvinyl alcohol was used as a stabilizer. Emulsion polymerization was carried out in a semi-batch reactor at $70^{\circ}C$ and agitation speed was 200 rpm. Tensile strength, extension, peel strength, viscosity, and solid contents of the synthesized coatings were examined. The coatings prepared with BA:AN = 60:20 (in weight ratio) satisfied the standard for automobile in terms of extension and peel strength. When the concentration of BMA was in a range of $18{\sim}23$ wt%, the prepared coatings satisfied the standard for automobile in terms of peel strength and water resistance.

완효성을 부여하려는 물질의 외부에 광물입자를 이용하여 피복형 구조체를 제조하고 이의 방출조절능력을 카리비료에 대한 용출실험을 통해 평가하였다. 황산칼륨을 구형의 펠릿으로 제조하고 이의 표면에 평균입도 $13.0{\mu}m$와 $27.4{\mu}m$인 두 가지 장석분말을 이용하여 구조체를 제조하였다. 구조체의 두께와 소성하는 온도를 달리하여 펠릿을 제조하고 용출실험을 통해 구조체의 완효성 발현능력을 평가하였다. 칼륨의 용출은 burst effect효과가 커서 초기 용출율이 높았는데, 소성온도가 낮고 구조체가 얇은 시료에서 크게 나타났다. $1{\sim}55{\mu}m$의 입도를 갖는 장석 보다 $1{\sim}130{\mu}m$의 입도를 갖는 장석에 의한 구조체가 더 높은 충진율에 의해 용출속도를 늦출 수 있었다. 용출속도는 약 7일부터 정상상태의 용출속도를 보이기 시작하였고 용출패턴은 펠릿에 남아있는 칼륨의 농도에 비례하는 first order kinetic의 패턴을 나타내었다. 평균입도 $27.4{\mu}m$인 장석으로 1~2.6mm두께의 피복형 구조체를 만들어 $1050^{\circ}C$에서 소성한 팰릿의 경우에는 40일의 용출율이 약 43%를 나타내었다.
