In this work, properties of ABS/AES blends were investigated. Blends were prepared by casting from THF. The thermal stability, light resistance, storage modulus and flame retardancy were measured by thermogravimetric analysis, cole. difference in Fade-o-meter, Rheovibron, and limiting oxygen index(LOI). The thermal stability, light resistance and storage modulus increased with increasing contents of AES. ABS and AES showed similar LOI. The LOI of the ABS/AES blends increased with rising contents of AES but all the blends were found to be flammable. It was observed that ABS and AES was incompatible from the morphology by scanning electron microscope(SEM).

Polyenaminonitriles containing cycloaliphatic and aliphatic units were prepared by interfacial or solution polymerization reaction of p-bis(1-chloro-2,2-dicyanovinyl) benzene (1) with 4-aminobenzyl-amine, 1-(2-aminoethyl)piperazine, 2-(aminomethyl)pyrrolidine and 4-(aminomethyl)piperidine. The chemical structure of the polymers was confirmed through a syntheses of the model compound. The resulting polymers possessed inherent viscosities of 0.29∼0.62 dL/g and they were easily soluble in polar aprotic solvents and common organic solvents. Thermal properties of the polymers such as curability and stability were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and infrared spectroscopy. The polymers exhibited a large exotherm in DSC analyses and underwent a curing reaction around 340-370$\^{C}$ to form insoluble materials. The polymers showed 70-80% residual weight at 600 $\^{C}$ under nitrogen.

Sericin was modified by solution blending (10-30 wt%) with 70-90 wt% polyacrylamide (PAM) in water. The reactive sites of sericin such as serine and tyrosine were attached to PAM. Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance ($^{1}H-NMR$) and thermogravimetric analysis were used to characterize the modified sericin. The electrospinning conditions i.e. the blend composition and the power supply voltage, at a tip to target distance of 15 cm were studied. The morphology of nanoparticles and nanofibers was observed by scanning electron microscopy. The average particles size of the nanoparticle obtained was 191 nm and nanofibers was 150-300 nm.

A metal organic framework-supported Nickel nanoparticle (Ni-MOF-5) was successfully synthesized using a simple impregnation method. The obtained solid acid catalyst was characterized by Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nitrogen adsorption-desorption and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The catalyst was highly crystalline with good thermodynamic stability (up to $400^{\circ}C$) and high surface area ($699m^2g^{-1}$). The catalyst was studied for the oxidation of ethyl benzene, and the results were monitored via gas chromatography (GC) and found that the Ni-MOF-5 catalyst was highly effective for ethyl benzene oxidation. The conversion of ethyl benzene and the selectivity for acetophenone were 55.3% and 90.2%, respectively.

2,5-Di-(2'-hydroxyethoxy)-4'-nitrostilbene (3) was prepared and polycondensed with terephthaloyl chloride, adipoyl chloride, and sebacoyl chloride to yield novel T-type polyesters (4-6) containing the NLO-chromophores dioxynitrostilbenyl groups, which constituted parts of the polymer backbones. Polymers 4-6 are soluble in common organic solvents such as acetone and N,N-dimethylformamide. They showed thermal stability up to 260 oC in thermogravimetric analysis with glass-transition temperatures obtained from differential scanning calorimetry in the range 90-95 oC. The second harmonic generation (SHG) coefficients (d33) of poled polymer films at the 1064 nm fundamental wavelength were around 1.42 ´ 10-9 esu. The dipole alignment exhibited high thermal stability up to 5 oC higher than glass-transition temperature (Tg), and there was no SHG decay below 100 oC due to the partial main-chain character of polymer structure, which is acceptable for NLO device applications.

We have prepared 1-D BiSI and 2-D BiOI nanostructures, and characterized them by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction crystallography, thermogravimetric analysis/differential scanning calorimetry, and UV-visible absorption. Here, we first report clear HR-TEM image of BiSI. In addition, we first found that the growth direction of BiSI is [12-1] plane, with the neighboring distance of 0.30 nm. The crystal structures of BiSI and BiOI are found to be orthorhombic (Pnam) and tetragonal (P4/nmm), respectively. The absorption band gaps of BiSI and BiOI are measured to be 1.55 and 1.92 eV, respectively. Our study could further highlight the applications of V-VI-VII compounds.

In this work, the electrical and thermal properties of polyimide/multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) nanocomposites were investigated. The polyimide/MWNT nanocomposites contained from 0 to 2.0 wt % of MWNT. The electrical properties of the polyimide films were characterized by a specific resistance measurement. The thermal properties were evaluated using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). It was found that the thermal properties of the polyimide nanocomposites increased with increasing MWNT content and specific resistance as well. This result indicated that the crosslinking of polyimide/MWNT nanocomposites was enhanced by good distribution of the MWNT in the polyimide resins, resulting in the increase of the electrical and thermal properties of the nanocomposites.

To improve the flame retardant performance of cellulose fibers, fluorine functional groups were introduced under various controlled fluorination conditions. The properties of the fluorinated cellulose fibers were analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and a thermogravimetric analysis. The fluorine functional group content in the fluorinated cellulose fibers increased with an increase in the fluorination temperature. However, the fluorination reaction increased the char yield and decreased the rate of degradation of the cellulose fibers by introducing donors, enabling the formation of a thick and compact char layer. Therefore, the flame retardant properties of cellulose fibers were improved following the fluorination treatment.

In order to prepare the proton-conducting membrane with lower cost and higher ionic conductivity than commercialized one, the concept of incorporating the nitrogen acid to polymer backbone, is proposed. The synthesis, thermal, and temperature-variable impedance/electrical conductivity studies of poly (p-tolunesulfonylamido acrylate) are reported. This polymer can be prepared by reacting poly (acryloyl chloride) with ptolunesulfonamide and cast into homogeneous membranes. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) shows that the polymer is thermally stable up to about $200^{\circ}C$ and Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) illustrates that the glass transition occur at around $67^{\circ}C$. The ionic conductivity measured by dielectric spectroscopy is in the range of $10^{-5}\;S/cm$ in dry atmosphere that it can be a candidate for the membrane of PEMFC or DMFC.
