The core-shell latex particles were prepared by sequential emulsion polymerization of alkyl methacrylate and styrene(ST) by using an water-soluble initiator(APS) after preparing monomer pre-emulsion in the presence of an anionic surfactant(SDBS). In organic/organic core-shell polymerization, the pre-emulsion method, which minimized required quantity of sulfactant, has been used to increase the conversion rate and the stability of core-shell latex particles as well as to reduce the formation of secondary particle that cause problems of soap-free emulsion during shell polymerization. We used several methods to observe the core-shell structure. The core-shell structure was studied by measuring pH change during hydrolysis by NaOH, glass transition temperature($T_g$) by differential scanning calorimeter(DSC), morphology of latex by transmission electron microscope(TEM) and change of particle size and distribution by a particle analyzer.

A series of fluorinated aromatic poly(hydroxyamide)s (PHAs) were synthesized by direct polycondensation of diacides containing 2,6-dimethylphenoxy group and quinoxaline ring in the main chain with 2,2-bis-(3-amino-4-hydroxyphenyl) hexafluoropropane. The PHAs had relatively low inherent viscosities in the range of 0.35~0.43 dL/g at $35^{\circ}C$ in DMAc solution. All PHAs exhibited excellent solubility in aprotic solvents such as NMP, DMAc, DMF and DMSO as well as in common organic solvents such as pyridine, THF, and m-cresol at room temperature. However, the poly(benzoxazole)s (PBOs) were quite insoluble in all organic solvents except partially soluble in concentrated sulfuric acid. The PBOs showed glass transition temperatures between 233 and $284^{\circ}C$ by DSC and maximum weight loss temperatures in the range of $536-546^{\circ}C$ by TGA.

2-Tetrahydropyranyl methacrylate with a self-crosslinkable moiety was copolymerized with methyl methacrylate and 4-[(2-methacryloxyethyl)methylamino]-4'-nitrostilbene or 4-[(2-methacryloxyethyl)ethylamino]-4'nitroazobenzene to provide second-order nonlinear optical property. Glass transition temperatures (Tg of the copolymers are around 140 ℃. The copolymers were soluble in common organic solvents such as tetrahydrofuran (THF), cyclohexanone, and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). Poling was carried out at 140 ℃ for 20 min and identified with UV-Vis spectroscopy. Electro-optic coefficient (r33) of copolymer was 62 pm/V for polymer 2 at 633 nm, and relaxation did not remarkably occur due to the formation of a crosslinked network at 200 ℃ for 15 min.

Two kinds of second-order nonlinear optical copolymers were prepared by the copolymerization of the vinyl monomers containing NLO chromophore, methacrylic acid, and methyl methacrylate or butyl methacrylate. Glass transition temperatures (Tg of copolymers were around 130 ℃. The copolymers were soluble in common organic solvents such as tetrahydrofuran (THF), cyclohexanone, and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The crosslinked copolymer was obtained by thermal treatment using pentaerythritol tetrakis(2-mercaptoacetate) as a crosslinker and became insoluble in tetrahydrofuran (THF) and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). Poling was carried out at 120 ℃ for 20 min and identified with UV-Vis spectroscopy. Electro-optic coefficient (r33) measurement showed a value of 35 pm/V for polymer 2 at 633 nm. Temporal stability of copolymers was improved owing to the crosslinked network, which was successfully obtained at 170 ℃ for 30 min after poling.

In this study we attempt to modify the backbone structure and improve processibility of PBO having high melting and glass transition temperature. A series of aromatic poly(o-hydroxyamide)s(PHAs) were synthesized by direct polycondensaton of diacides containing diimide unit with two types of bis(o-aminophenol)s including 3,3'-dihydroxybenzidine and 2,2-bis(3-amino-4-hydroxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane. PHAs were studied by FT-IR, $^1H$-NMR, DSC and TGA. PHAs exhibited inherent viscosities in the range of 0.34~0.65 dL/g at $35^{\circ}C$ in DMAc solution. The PHA 1 and 6F-PHA 6, introducing o-phenylene unit in the main chain showed excellent solubilities in aprotic solvents such as NMP etc. However, the PHA 3, having p-phenylene unit was not even dissolved perfectly with LiCl salt. 6F-PHAs were readily soluble at room temperature in aprotic solvents except 6F-PHA 3. But they showed better solubility than that of PHAs. The polybenzoxazoles(PBOs) were quite insoluble in other solvents except partially soluble in sulfuric acid. PBOs exhibited relatively high glass transition temperatures(Tg) in the range of 306~$311^{\circ}C$ by DSC. The maximum weight loss temperature and char yields of PHA3 and 6F-PHA3 showed the highest values of $658^{\circ}C$ and $653^{\circ}C$, 62.6 % and 62.1 %, respectively.

Salt, one of the most common soluble materials in engineering soil, may have an effect on mechanical behaviors of soils under its cementation process. In order to investigate this natural phenomenon, non-soluble material by using glass beads is mixed with salt electrolyte and cemented by using oven to evaporate water. Three different sizes of glass bead particles, 0.26, 0.5, and 1.29 mm, with different salt concentration, 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0M, are explored by using P- and S-waves, excited by bender elements and piezo disk elemets, respectively. The velocities of the P-wave and S-wave of the particulate medium cemented by salt show three stages with the degree of saturation: 1) S-wave velocities increase while P-wave velocities reduce with degree of saturation changing from 100% to 90%; 2) Both velocities are stable with degree of saturation varying from 90% to 10%; 3) The velocities change enormously when the specimens are nearly dry with degree of saturation from 10% to 0%. Besides, the resonance frequencies of S-wave show similar stages to the S-wave velocities. This study demonstrates meaningful trends of elastic wave characteristics of geo-materials according to the cementation of dissolved salt.

As the usuage of tempered glass for touch panel increased rapidly with the development of industry, the amount of UV curable coating solution used to protect glass surfaces during a tempered glass manufacturing process increased as well. The UV curable coating has advantages compared to thermal curing such as shortened curing time and non-solvent. Appropriated polymer and monomer were used as an acid polymer to grant an alkali peeling ability. The monomers were 2-hydroxyl methylacrylate, 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate and dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate which have acryl groups of 1, 2, and 6, respectively. The combination of three different types of photoinhibitors were used and bisphenol A epoxy diacrylate was used as an oligomer. In this study, experiments were carried out by controlling the amount of photoinitiator, oligomer, and additive while maintaining the constant content of the acid polymer and the acrylic monomer. The changes in physical properties according to the additive content were investigated. It was found that the combination of photoinitiators was necessary to achieve the hardness above 4H and it was possible to control the delamination type of the coating film from a sheet to pieces by the addition of TPO as an initiator. The increase in oligomer contents increased the hardness and adhesiveness alongside dissection time. Talc content of 20 wt% showed the best results.

Imide-containing diamine and dicarboxylic acid monomers, N-(4-aminophenyl)-4-aminophthalimide(APAP), N-(4-carboxyphenyl)-4-carboxyphthalimide(CPCP), N,N'-oxydiphenylenebis(4-aminophthalimide)(ODPAP) and N,N'-oxydiphenylenebis(4-carboxyphthalimide)(ODPCP) were prepared. Poly(amide-imide)s were prepared by condensation reaction of the diamine and the dicarboxylic acid monomers. Poly(amide-imide)s were also prepared from the diamine monomers and aromatic acid chlorodes such as terephthaloyl chloride and isophthaloyl chloride. The polymers possess inherent viscosity of 0.18~0.67 dL/g and brittle films were cast from NMP/LiCl solution. The poly(amide-imide)s are easily soluble in NMP/LiCl and also partially soluble in polar aprotic solvents such as DMF, DMSO, NMP and DMAc even at $80^{\circ}C$. DSC traces of polymers showed no glass transition temperature and melting temperature, and TGA traces showed a 10% weight loss at $500^{\circ}C$.

Novel soluble triazoleimide oligomers terminated with arylacetylene terminated were synthesized by the Cu(I)-catalysed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition polymerization of diazides and imide-containing dialkyne. Several molecular weight triazoleimide oligomers were prepared from diazide and dialkyne monomers with different stoichiometric combinations. The curing behaviors of the oligomers were tested by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The thermal properties of the cured products were evaluated by DSC and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). These cured oligomers showed the glass transition temperature of about $225-235^{\circ}C$ and the decomposition temperature (at 5% weight loss) of about $385-393^{\circ}C$ in nitrogen.

Emeraldine salt of polyaniline-dodecylbenzenesulfdnic acid (PANI-DBSA) in organic solvents such as toluene and xylene was obtained by a direct one-step emulsion polymerization technique. When the molar ratio of DBSA to aniline monomer was 1.5:1, its solubility and electric property showed a maximum value and then the solid contents of PANI-DBSA was 8 wt% in toluene. The cast film of PANI-DBSA with no binder was obtained on glass or plastic substrates under ambient conditions. PANI solution can be also easily blended with polyurethane and polystyrene polymers in toluene. Improved electrical performance up to 5 S/cm was achieved with good light-transmittance up to 70% at 500 m thickness. They also showed more homogeneous morphology than that prepared with PANI-DBSA kom aqueous dispersion polymerization. The partially dispersed PANI-DBSA showed particles sizes of 50-400 m in organic solvents and their XRD pattern were observed from the powder sample.
