can be determined from the number and weight average molecular weight. When the value of the exponent, a, appearing in the relation between the intrinsic viscosity and the viscosity average molecular weight, is in the range from 0.6 to 0.8, as is the case for the most polymers, the viscosity average molecular weight is much more close to the weight average molecular weight than to the number average molecular weight.

In preparing sodium alginates from sea tangle (Laminaria japonica) powder using the Mexican process, alkaline extraction, conversion to alginic acid and reversion to sodium alginates were used to increase purity. The effect of hot water treatment and dialysis on measuring the average molecular weight of sodium alginates were investigated. Intrinsic viscosity and average molecular weight of sodium alginates after dialysis were higher than those before dialysis. Average molecular weight of sodium alginates treated with hot water was higher than that without. Hot treatment has little effect on the ash content of sodium alginates. Ash content of sodium alginates before dialysis were $27-30\%$ those after dialysis were $10\%.$ After dialysis, Na content was highest $(89-91\%),$ K was $11-12\%,$ Ca was $1.9\%,$ and Mg was $0.05\%.$ Ash content of alginates had little effect on average molecular weight. SAV (slope of apparent viscosity) of alginates solution after dialysis showed higher values than before. SAV of the alginates with hot water treatment were higher than without treatment.

Solution Properties of polyelectrolytic biopolymers such as chitosen, pectin, alginate and etc. are significantly influenced by molecular weight and salt concentrations. The effect of NaCI concentration on the hydrodynamic properties of chitosan in dilute region was investigated for chitosans of varying molecular weight. Intrinsic vicosity([η]) of citosans with 5 different molecular weight was determined by glass capillary viscometer, and the viscosity average molecular weight was calculated using Mark-Houwink equation. Intrinsic viscosity decreased with increasing NaCI concentration for all chitosan samples, and it was proportional to the logarithmic NaCI concentration, i.e.,[η]∝log{TEX}$(C_{NaCl})^{$\alpha$}${/TEX}. Decreasing trend of[η] with NaCI concentration became more pronounced with increasing molecular weight. It was also found that the a values, indicating {TEX}$C_{NaCl}${/TEX} dependence of[η], were linearly correlated with the logarithmic molecular weight({TEX}$R^{2}${/TEX}=0.980). The chain stiffness parameters(B) were calculated by B=S./{TEX}$([η]_{0.1})^{1.32}${/TEX}, in which S was obtained from slope of [η] va {TEX}$I^{-1/2}${/TEX}. The B values of chitosan samples were determined to be 0.113~0071 with a average of 0.09.

Dispersion polymerization of acrylamide was carried out in the media of methyl alcohol/$H_2O$ mixtures using hydroxypropyl cellulose and ammonium persulfate as steric stabilizer and initiator, respectively. The effects of concentrations of initiator and steric stabilizer, amount of monomer, polymerization temperature, methyl alcohol/$H_2O$ ratio, and purification of monomer and nitrogen purge on the particle size of the latices and molecular weight of the polymers were investigated. The average particle diameter increased with increasing concentration of initiator, water content in methyl alcohol/$H_2O$ media, and polymerization temperature, but decreased with monomer and stabilizer concentrations. The viscosity average molecular weight increased with increasing concentrations of monomer, steric stabilizer, and water content in dispersion media, but decreased with initiator concentration and polymerization temperature. The PAM polymers prepared with the purified monomer and the nitrogen purging before the reaction showed the highest molecular weight.

A zinc-air battery is one of most promising advanced batteries due to its high specific energy density, low cost, and environmental friendliness. However, zinc anodes in zinc-air batteries lead to several issues including self-discharge, corrosion reaction, and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). In this paper, viscosity of electrolyte has been controlled to suppress the corrosion reaction, HER, and self-discharge behavior. Various viscosity average molecular weights of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) are adopted to prepare the electrolyte. The evaporation of electrolytes is proportional to the increase in molecular weight. In addition, enhanced self-discharge behavior is obtained when the gelling agent with high molecular weight is used. In addition, the zinc-air cell assembled with lower viscosity average molecular weight of PAA (M_v ~ 450,000) delivers 510.85 mAh/g and 489.30 mAh/g of discharge capacity without storage and with 6 hr storage, respectively. Also, highest capacity retention (95.78 %) is obtained among studied materials.

As the molecular weight (MW) of urea-formaldehyde (UF) resins had a great impact on their properties, this work was conducted to study effect of analytical parameters of gel permeation chromatography (GPC) on the MW measurement of UF resins. GPC parameters such as flow rate, column, detector temperature, and sample injection temperature were selected to compare number-average molecular weight (Mn), weight-average molecular weight (Mw), molecular weight distribution (MWD) and polydispersity index (PDI) of two UF resins with different viscosities. As expected, UF resin with higher viscosity resulted in greater Mn and Mw than those of low viscosity UF resin. When the flow rate increased, both Mn and Mw of UF resins decreased and MWD became narrower. By contrast, both Mn and Mw increased and MWD became wide when the column, detector, and sample injection temperature increased. The column, detector, and sample injection temperature of $50^{\circ}C$ at a flow rate of $0.5m{\ell}/min$ resulted in the highest MW and broadest MWD for the GPC analysis. These results suggest that the apparent molecular size or a hydrodynamic radius of UF resin molecules dissolved in the mobile phase affect to Mn, Mw and MWD.

소수성 설리카를 안정제로 하는 현탁중합법으로 $75^{\circ}C$에서 합성한 고분자입자들을 모세관 레오미터를 이용하여 전단점도를 측정하였다. 전단점도는 중량평균분자량이 증가하면서 비뉴톤거동을 나타내였다. 스타렌(St)/부틸메타크릴레이트(BMA)의 구성비를 변화하며 합성한 공중합체 입자를 이용하여 $170^{\circ}C$ 및 $190^{\circ}C$에서 측정한 전단점도는 분자량, 온도 뿐만 아니라 구성비에 따라서도 변화하였다. St/BMA의 구성비가 7/3, 5/5 및 3/7의 공중합체 (co-PSB) 입자의 경우 유사한 분자량을 나타내었지만 BMA의 구성비가 증가하면서 전단점도는 소폭 감소하였다. BMA의 비가 3/7을 초과하며 높은 전단속도에서의 전단점도는 급격히 감소하였다. 이는 BMA 구성비의 증가에 따른 PBMA 사슬의 길이의 증가로 인한 유동성 향상에 기인하는 것으로 판단된다. 카본블랙을 함유하는 co-PSB 복합체 업자의 전단점도는 카본블랙의 증가에 따라 점진적으로 증가하였으나, 카본블랙의 농도 증가에 따른 전단점도의 증가는 분자량의 증가 효과에 비교하여 미약하였다.

Modified phenolics can have a retarding effect on the gelation of wood oil. Modified phenolic resins can be used in media for paint, varnishes, primers, overprinting varnishes, litho, letterpress and rotogravure inks. Varnishes based on rosin phenolic are faster drying, have better durability, are harder and glosser, and have greater resistance to water than ones based on ester gums. These physical properties is concerned with molecular weight distribution of rosin modified phenol resin. This paper was studied about molecular weight distribution of rosin phenolics which were prepared between $130~250^{\circ}C$. The results were as follows: 1) Average molecular weights inereased with increasing reaction temperature. 2) $M_w/M_n$ were from 3.43 to 46.44 with increasing reaction temperature and so the molecular weight distributions were changed from random distribution to broad distribution. 3) The relation ship between intrinsic viscosity and weight average molecular weight was follows: $[{\;}{\;}]={\;}1{\times}{\;}10^{-6}M_w,{\;}M_w=M_w$ 4) Esterification reaction between the acid group of rosin and polyol was started about $230^{\circ}C$$.

소수성실리카를 안정제로 하는 현탁중합반응법을 이용하여 합성한 스티렌(St)/부틸메타크릴레이트(BMA) 공중합체 (co-PSB) 입자의 전단점도를 모세관 레오미터 (capillary rheometer)를 이용하여 $170^{\circ}C$에서 측정하였다. co-PSB 입자의 전단점도는 중량평균분자량이 74,800 g/mol 이하인 경우 낮은 전단속도에서는 뉴톤거동을 보였다. 중량평균분자량이 136,800 g/mol을 초과하면서 전단점도는 전단속도의 전 영역에 걸쳐 감소하였고 전단속도에 대한 기울기의 절대값은 분자량의 증가와 함께 증가하였다. St/BMA의 구성비가 7/3, 5/5 및 3/7의 co-PSB 입자는 유사한 분자량을 나타내었지만 BMA의 구성비가 증가하면서 유리전이온도와 전단점도는 감소하였다. St/BMA의 구성비가 1/9 인 co-PSB의 경우 유리전이온도는 더욱 감소하였으나 초기 전단점도는 크게 증가하였다. 카본블랙을 함유하는 co-PSB 복합체 입자의 전단점도는 카본블랙의 증가에 따라 증가하였으나, 카본블랙의 농도에 따른 전단점도의 변화는 분자량 및/혹은 구성비의 변화 효과에 비교하여 미약하였다.

Ceric 염과 ${\gamma}$-선을 계기로 하여 Nylon 직포에 Acrylic acid를 접목반응 시켰다. 접목반응된 Polyacrylic acid의 분자량 분포를 측정한 결과 양 평균분자량과 수 평균분자량의 비는 낮은온도(-184$^{\circ}C$)dptj 보다는 상온에서 더 높았다는 것을 알았다. Polyacrylic acid의 양 평규 sqnswkfid은 Sodium hydroxide용액에서 점도를 측정하여 계산하였다. Nylon에 Acrylic acid가 중합반응될 때에 중합반응에 영향을 주는 요소들을 시험하였다. Nylon의 산화반응은 질소원자에 인접해 있는 methlene group에서 일어나 free-radical이 만들어 진다는 메카니즘을 논의 하였다.
