지구 온난화 이슈에서 가장 고질적인 문제 중 하나는 온실가스의 배출이다. 다양한 온실 가스 중 가장 높은 비중을 차지하는 이산화탄소(CO₂)는 이를 분리하기 위해 연구자들이 지속적으로 연구를 진행해오고 있다. 이러한 관점에서 본 연구에서는 이산화탄소 기체를 분리하기 위해 poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) 기반 공중합체를 제조하여 기체 분리막에 활용했다. 공중합체는 자유 라디칼 중합법을 활용했으며, 곁사슬을 위한 단량체로 아크릴산(acrylic acid)를 사용하여 PVA-g-PAA(VAA) 그래프트 공중합체를 제조했다. 본 공중합체를 이산화탄소 기체분리막에 적용한 사례는 최초이며, 폴리설폰 지지체에 복합막 형태로 제조했다. 공중합체 합성 결과는 FT-IR을 통해, 합성한 공중합체 의 거동은 TEM과 DSC, TGA를 통해 분석하였다. AA 그래프팅을 통해 공중합체는 나노 구조를 형성하며, PVA의 결정화도를 급격하게 감소시켜 이산화탄소의 용해도를 증가시켰고, 이는 이산화탄소 기체 분리 성능을 향상시켰다. 이를 통해 이산화탄소 분리막 분야에 용액-확산 및 그래프팅 방법이라는 새로운 접근법을 제시하였다.

The distinguishing characteristic of the glow discharge is that chemical reaction induced by partially ionized gases are limited only to the substrate surface. Most studies have been done on the plasma etching and polymerization. The graft polymerization in vapour phase by cold plasma has been rarely investigated. In this study the system of tub3ar reaction chamber with capacitively coupled electrode of alternative current of 60 Hz was employed for the graft polymerization. The graft polymerization of Acylic Acid(AA) onto the poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was carried out by treatment of PET film and fabric by cold plasma (glow discharge of argon gas), followed by the supply of AA vapour. The graft yield was about 1 wt%. The surface property was determined by contact angle, the surface tension was evaluated by zisman’s plot and equation of surface tension mesurement. The results were as follows: 1. In order to obtain lower contact angle, it was effective to avoid the vicinity of electrodes for a setting position of substrate. 2. Contact angle affected on the monomer pressure and its duration of exposure to the acid vapour. 3. Polymer radical formation was influenced by the changes of the value of current density and plasma treatment time. 4. Total surface tension of plasma grafted PET film increased. With an increase in the carboxylic acid content, the dispersion force decreased, while, the polar force and hydrogen bonding force increased. 5. The contact angle decreased from $75^\circ$ to around $30^\circ$ by plasma grafting. There was no ageing effect on the contact angle after 4 months.

The interactions between the surface of scaffolds and specific cells play an important role in tissue engineering applications. Some cell adhesive ligand peptides including Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) have been grafted into polymeric scaffolds to improve specific cell attachment. In order to make cell adhesive scaffolds for tissue regeneration, biodegradable nonporous poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) films were prepared by using a solvent casting technique with chloroform. The hydrophobic PLLA films were surface-modified by Argon plasma treatment and in situ direct acrylic acid (AA) grafting to get hydrophilic PLLA-g-PAA. The obtained carboxylic groups of PLLA-g-PAA were coupled with the amine groups of Gly-Arg-Asp-Gly (GRDG, control) and GRGD as a ligand peptide to get PLLA-g-GRDG and PLLA-g-GRGD, respectively. The surface properties of the modified PLLA films were examined by various surface analyses. The surface structures of the PLLA films were confirmed by ATR-FTIR and ESCA, whereas the immobilized amounts of the ligand peptides were 138-145 pmol/$cm^2$. The PLLA surfaces were more hydrophilic after AA and/or RGD grafting but their surface morphologies showed still relatively smoothness. Fibroblast adhesion to the PLLA surfaces was improved in the order of PLLA control

To improve the performance of Si anodes in advanced Li-ion batteries, the design of the electrode plays a critical role, especially due to the large volumetric expansion in the Si anode during Li insertion. In our study, we used a simple fabrication method to prepare Si-based electrodes by grafting polyacrylic acid (PAA) to a carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) binder (CMC-g-PAA). The procedure consists of first mixing nano-sized Si and the binders (CMC and PAA), and then coating the slurry on a Cu foil. The carbon network was formed via carbonization of the binders i.e., by a simple heat treatment of the electrode. The carbon network in the electrode is mechanically and electrically robust, which leads to higher electrical conductivity and better mechanical property. This explains its long cycle performance without the addition of a conducting agent (for example, carbon). Therefore, the partially carbonized CMC-g-PAA binder presented in this study represents a new feasible approach to produce Si anodes for use in advanced Li-ion batteries.

소수성인 폴리올레핀계를 친수성화하여 고분자의 표면특성을 개량하거나 고분자 재료 표면에 새로운 기능을 부여하고자 하는 연구가 1970년대부터 계속되고 있다. 이러한 고분자의 표면 특성개질에 대한 연구는 보통 고분자의 도장성, 인쇄성, 접착성, 젖음성 들을 개선하기 위한 것이다. 그 중 재료의 표면층 만을 효율적으로 개질 시키는 저온 플라즈마 처리법은 낮은 기압에서 행하는 글로우 방전법과 대기압 부근에서 행하는 코로나 방전법으로 나눌 수 있으며, 특히 대기압하에서 코로나 방전을 이용한 표면개질법은 산업현장에서 연속적이면서 고속으로 처리할 수 있고 취급이 용이하다는 장점 때문에 표면개질에 있어서 현재 널리 사용되고 있는 방법중 하나이다[1].

In this study we have examined electroless chemical plating on the plasma grafted poly [ethylene terephathalate］(PET) fabric in order to improve the interfacial adhesion between metal and fiber. The vapour phase of acrylic acid introduced on the PET surface and the graft polymerization was carried out by using cold plasma, resulting in the grafting yield of 0.8-1.3 wt％. The carboxyl group of the plasma grafted was identified by FT-IR-ATR spectra. The Interfacial adhesion was related to the carboxyl group. After electroless chemical plating of nickel, it showed that the more the carboxyl, the better the interfacial adhesion. Comparing to the untreated, the plasma grafted fabric showed fairly good interfacial adhesion(5B grade, ASTM D3359) . The shielding effect of electromagnetic wave showed 95dB. The shielding effect depends on the fabric structure, the surface structure, and the cross sectional shape of fibers. The dense fabric structure, the etched surface like a microcrater, and the trigonal cross sectional shape were prefered.

화석 연료를 사용할 때, 불완전 연소는 필연적으로 발생하는 문제이다. 이러한 관점에서 연소 후 기체 분리는 불완전 연소 기체의 재활용 가능성을 시사한다. 이와 관련하여 본 연구에서는 일산화탄소 기체 분리용 촉진수송 고분자 분리막을 제조하였다. 이를 위해 poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) 주사슬 기반으로 acrylic acid (AA) 단량체를 자유 라디칼 중합법으로 PVA-g-PAA 공중합체를 제조하였다. 본 공중합체를 일산화탄소 활용에 적용하는 사례는 처음이며, 제조한 공중합체는 AgBF₄ 염과 HBF₄를 혼합하여 기체 분리막에 적용하였다. 공중합체 합성 결과는 FT-IR을 통해 분석하였으며, 공중합체와 AgBF₄, HBF₄의 상호작용은 TEM를 통해 분석하였다. 염의 첨가를 통해 일산화탄소 기체의 촉진수송 채널을 형성하였으며 이를 통해 일산화탄소 분리막 분야에 촉진수송 및 그래프팅 방법이라는 새로운 접근법을 제시하였다.

Due to their multipotency, stem cells can differentiate into a variety of specialized cell types, such as chondrocytes, osteoblasts, myoblasts, and nerve cells. As an alternative to mature tissue cells, stem cells are of importance in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Since interactions between scaffold and cells play an important role in the tissue development in vitro, synthetic oligopeptides have been immobilized onto polymeric scaffolds to improve specific cell attachment and even to stimulate cell differentiation. In this study, chondrogenic differentiation of stem cells was evaluated using surface-modified PLLA scaffolds, i.e., either hydrophilic acrylic acid (AA)-grafted PLLA or RGD-immobilized one. Porous PLLA scaffolds were prepared using a gas foaming method, followed by plasma treatment and subsequent grafting of AA to introduce a hydrophilicity (PLLA-PAA). This was further processed to fix RGD peptide to make an RGD-immobilized scaffold (PLLA-PAA-RGD). Stem cells were seeded at $1{\times}10^{6}$ cells per scaffold and the cell-PLLA constructs were cultured for up to 4 weeks in the chondrogenic medium. Using these surface-modified scaffolds, adhesion, proliferation, and chondrogenic differentiation of stem cells were evaluated. The surface of PLLA scaffolds turned hydrophilic (water contact angle, 45 degrees) with both plasma treatment and AA grafting. The hydrophilicity of RGD-immobilized surface was not significantly altered. Cell proliferation rate on the either PLLA-PAA or PLLA-PAA-RGD surface was obviously improved, especially with the RGD-immobilized one as compared to the control PLLA one. Chondrogenic differentiation was clearly identified with Safranin O staining of GAG in the AA- or RGD-grafted PLLA substrates. This study demonstrated that modified polymer surfaces may provide better environment for chondrogenesis of stem cells.

Electrospun nanofibers prepared with synthetic biodegradable polymer have some limitations in regulating adhesion, proliferation, and spreading of cells because of their surface hydrophobicity and absence of cell-interaction. In this study, we functionalized the electrospun poly(L-lactide-co-${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone) (PLCL) nanofibers with acrylic acid (AAc) to modulate their surface hydrophilicity using electron-beam irradiation method and then measured grafting ratio of AAc, water contact angle, and ATR-FTIR of AAc-grafted nanofibers. A grafting ratio of AAc on the nanofibers was increased as irradiation dose and AAc concentration were increased. AAc-grafted nanofibers also have higher wettability than non-modified nanofibers. In conclusion, those surface-modified nanofibers may be an essential candidate to regulate cell attachment in tissue engineering applications.
