We synthesized a spirobenzofluorene type phosphine oxide (SPPO2) as a new triplet host and an universal electron transport material for phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes(PHOLEDs). Red PHOLEDs with the SPPO2 host material showed a high quantum efficiency of 14.3 % with a current efficiency of 20.4 cd/A. In addition, the SPPO2 could be applied as an electron transport material which can be matched with any host material due to the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital of 2.4 eV. Electron injection from a cathode to the SPPO2 electron transport layer was better than common electron transport materials. In particular, the SPPO2 was effective as the electron transport material in blue PHOLEDs and the quantum efficiency was more than doubled and driving voltage was lowered by more than 3 V using the SPPO2 instead of common electron transport material.

Polypyrrole (PPy) was made by an emulsion polymerization using iron (III) chloride ($FeCl_3$) as an initiator and dodecyl benzene sulfuric acid (DBSA) as an emulsifier and dopant. Poly (2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (PPO) was sulfonated by chlorosulfonic acid (CSA). The cathode was composed of $PPy^+DBS^-$ complex, conductor powder, and PPO or sulfonated poly (2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (SPPO) as a binder or dopant. The charge-discharge performance of $PPy^+DBS^-/SPPO$ cathode was increased as the extent of about 50%, than $PPy^+DBS^-/PPO$. This is because SPPO played a role as a binder as well as a dopant. In addition, sulfonation brings out the increase of miscibility between PPy and SPPO, and the increase of contact area between cathode and electrolyte.

This study was carried out to prepare a heterogeneous cation exchange membrane by mixing polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), commercial cation exchange resin and sulfonated poly(phenylene oxide)(SPPO) in order to propose an optimum condition for the preparation, and to compare its properties with commercial membrane. Study results show that the ion exchange capacity and electrical resistance were outstanding when the ratio of polymer matrix was less than 30% comparing between PVDF-IER, PVDF-SPPO and PVDF-SPPO-IER. The tensile strength was confirmed that seemed a hard look was five times greater compared to the commercial heterogeneous membrane, despite the weak durability of PVDF resin. Therefore, when chemical and mechanical properties are considered, the optimum mixing ratio between PVDF, IER and SPPO was 30 : 70, at which electric resistance was measured as $3{\sim}5{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$, ion exchange capacity as 0.6~1.0 meq/g, while mechanical strength was in a range of $12{\sim}15kgf/cm^2$.

Poly(phenylene oxide) (PPO) and polyether imide (PEI) were sulfonated and aminated to create sulfonated poly(phenylene oxide) (SPPO) and aminated polyether imide (APEI), respectively. Characterization of the SPPO and APEI were performed via measurements of FTIR, thermogravimetry (TGA), swelling degree, ion exchange capacity (IEC), and ion conductivity. Next, the surfaces of these membranes were modified by surface fluorination at room temperature. The surface fluorinated SPPO and APEI membranes underwent characterization again for the mentioned measurements to determine any differences. The 3 types of bi-polar membranes were prepared by varying the IEC of the APEI at a fixed SPPO IEC value, which were applied to the low and high NaCl concentration of feed solution at the different current density, respectively. The hypochlorite concentration derived from the surface fluorinated membranes was dependent on the IEC of the APEI and ranged from 491 to 692 ppm at $80mA/m^2$. At low current density of $5mA/m^2$, the hypochlorite concentrations ranged from 18 to 28 ppm for the 4 hrs surface fluorinated membranes and their durability increased greatly.

In this study, poly (phenylene oxide) (PPO) and poysulfone (PSf) were sulfonated and aminated respectively. Both sulfonated poly (phenylene oxide) (SPPO) and aminated polysulfone (APSf) were characterized via the measurement of FT-IR, swelling degree, ion exchange capacity (IEC), and ion conductivity. Then the surfaces of these membranes were modified by surface fluorination using 2000 ppm $F_2$ gas against $N_2$ gas for 1 h at room temperature. The surface fluorinated SPPO and APSf membranes were characterized again to determine any differences between the pristine and fluorinated membranes. In total, 3 types of bi-polar membranes were prepared by varying the IEC of the APSf and having a fixed value for the IEC of the SPPO. The hypochlorite concentration generated by using the surface fluorinated membranes was dependent on the IEC of the APSf and ranged from 683 to 826 ppm, while there was a considerable improvement in the durability of the surface fluorinated membranes as they remained intact even after operating for 4 h.

We report on highly efficient blue, orange, and white phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes consisting only two organic layers. Hole transporting 4, 4,' 4"-tris (N-carbazolyl)triphenylamine (TcTa) and electron transporting 2-(diphenylphosphoryl) spirofluorene (SPPO1) are used as an emitting host for orange light-emitting bis(3-benzothiazol-2-yl-9-ethyl-9H-carbazolato) (acetoacetonate) iridium ((btc)2(acac)Ir) and blue light-emitting iridium(III)bis(4,6-difluorophenyl-pyridinato-N,C2') picolinate (FIrpic) dopant, respectively. Combining these two orange and blue light-emitting layers, we successfully demonstrate highly efficient white PHOLEDs while maintaining Commission internationale de l'eclairage coordinates of (x = 0.373, y = 0.443). Accordingly, we achieve a maximum external quantum, current, and power efficiencies of 12.9%, 30.3 cd/A, and 30.0 lm/W without out-coupling enhancement.
