Three kinds of acrylic polymers containing silk protein were synthesized, which are (1) blending of silk fibroin (SF) fiber and polyacrylonitrile (PAN); (2) graft-copolymer of PAN onto SFs; (3) random-copolymer synthesized by copolymerization of acrylonitrile (AN) and silk fibroin peptide (SFP) with vinyl groups, and their solubility, thermal property, and moisture absorption was investigated, respectively. These polymers have difference solubility and attributable to their structure. Their excellent thermal stabilities and better moisture absorptions were indicated.

In this study, various model composite latexes were synthesized using n-butyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate as comonomers by seeded multi-staged emulsion polymerization. Monodispersed model composite latex particles with size of 190 nm and polydispersity index of 1.05, which have various morphology including random copolymer particle, soft-core/hard-shell particle, hard-core/soft shell particle, and gradient-type copolymer particle, homopolymers particles were prepared.

A poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethyene) (P(VDF-TrFE)) copolymer thin film having ${\beta}$ phase was prepared by sol-gel method. The electrical properties of the film were studied to evaluate the possibility for appling to a ferroelectric random access memory. In order to characterize its electrical properties, we produced a MFS (metal-ferroelectric-semiconductor) structure by evaporation of Au electrodes. The C-V (capacitance-voltage) measurement revealed that the Au/P(VDF-TrFE)/Si structure with a 4 wt% film had a memory window width of about 0.5V for a bias voltage sweep of 1V.

Amphiphilic random copolymers can form various types of micelles in aqueous media depending on the balance between two opposite interactions- electrostatic repulsion and hydrophobic attraction. This balance can change by addition of some organic solvent to the aqueous solution, and as a result, we can control the micellar structure and micellization equilibrium by changing the solvent content. In the present study, we have investigated the micellization equilibrium of an amphiphilic statistical copolymer consisting of sodium 2-(acrylamido)-2- methylpropanesulfonate and hexyl methacrylate in mixtures of water and methanol by sedimentation equilibrium and fluorescence.

The monomer compositions in a series of propylene heterophasic copolymer, propylene random copolymer, propylene random terpolymer and ethylene-propylene-ENB terpolymer have been determined from $^{13}C-NMR$ spectra. The simplified and highly resolved $^{13}C-NMR$ spectra made it possible to assign unambiguousely and calculate the monomer composition. A complete sets of NMR chemical shift assignments and the way to measure the quantity of monomer are newly given in diverse polymers. Furthermore complete dyad, triad, tetrad and pentad distributions have been able to be determined. These NMR quantitative analytical results for monomer compostition have consistent with those from Infrared spectral data.

Radical copolymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAM) with methyl methacrylate (MMA) was carried out in 1,4-dioxane using 2,2'-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN). To investigate the reactivity ratios of NIPAAM and MMA at different reaction temperatures, the copolymerization was allowed to proceed to low conversion (less than 10 wt%), and the reaction temperatures were 50, 60, and 7$0^{\circ}C$. The monomer reactivity ratios of NIPAAM and MMA were estimated by the graphical methods according to the Finemann-Ross equation. The ${\gamma}$$_1$ and ${\gamma}$$_2$ values for NIPAAM-MMA were 0.259 and 2.782 at 5$0^{\circ}C$, 0.271 and 2.819 at 6$0^{\circ}C$, and 0.286 and 2.915 at 7$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. As the reaction temperature increased, the ${\gamma}$$_1$ and ${\gamma}$$_2$ values increased. The activation energy difference was estimated by comparing the reactivity ratios at different reaction temperatures.

Amphiphilic PCZ-r-PEG random copolymer assisted solvothermal process is used to prepare mesoporous $TiO_2$ microspheres generated from nanoparticles by self-assembly method. Synthesized PCZ-r-PEG is characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The mesoporous $TiO_2$ are prepared by PCZ-r-PEG, glucose, water in tertrahydrofuran solution at $150^{\circ}C$ for 12 h and the $TiO_2$ microspheres are calcined at $550^{\circ}C$ for 30 min to further crystallize and organic residue are removed. Morphology and crystallization phase is characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) respectively. The mesoporous $TiO_2$ crystallized in pure anatase phase with diameter of $300{\pm}20nm$.

Two novel synthetic route proposed for Hydro-Terminated Poly(EO-ran-THF) and tri-block(PEC-PTHF-PEG) copolymer by cationic ring-opening polymerization of tetrahydrofuran(THF) and ethylene oxide(EO) and just by polymerization of EO on poly-THF, respectively. Polyurethane was synthesized from random and tri-block HTPE using N-100/IPDI mixture as curing agent, and TPB(Triphenylbismuth) as catalyst. The mechanical properties of resultant polyurethane after mixing with various ratio of isocyanate was also investigated. Finally, the post treatment process of HTPE based on amount of catalyst used in the synthesis was studied, to evaluate the optimum curing condition for the polyurethane propellant binder.

An octa-functional alkoxyamine initiator, with the 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-l-piperidinyloxy (TEMPO) free radical, was synthesized based on resorcinarene, with its efficiency to initiate the nitroxide-mediated free radical copolymerization of styrene and methyl methacrylate (MMA) described. A difunctional analogue of this initiator was also synthesized, using resorcinol as the core molecule. The structures of the resulting initiators were confirmed by homolysis studies based on electron spin resonance spectroscopy and molecular modeling. The polymerization behavior and characteristics of the polymers obtained using these two initiators were also compared. Well-defined star-shaped and linear random copolymers, with low polydispersities and controlled molecular weights, were prepared. The efficiencies of these initiators towards copolymerization, as well as the parameters permitting the formation of well-defined polymers, were also investigated. The reactivity ratios were $r_a=0.42(a=styrene)\;and\;r_b=0.33(b=MMA)$ for the octa-functional initiator system and $r_a=0.45\;and\;r_b=0.39$ for the difunctional initiator system.
