Four kinds of new aliphatic diols were synthesized by the ring opening reaction of glycolide with 1,4-butanediol, 1,6-hexanediol, 1,4-cyclohexanediol, or 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol, a difunctional initiator, in the presence of stannous octoate catalyst. The resulting diols were melt-polymerized with succinic acid, adipic acid, or suberic acid at 170, 190, or $220^{circ}C$ to produce new sequentially ordered aliphatic polyesters and their corresponding polyesters with random structure. Their glass transition temperatures ($T_g$) ranged from -40 to $30^{circ}C$, The sequentially ordered polyesters prepared at $170^{cir}C$ had higher $T_g$ of 5 to $10^{circ}$ than the polyesters with rand()m structure produced at higher temperature. From in-vitro degradation test the sequentially ordered polyesters was shower in the rate of hydrolysis in a buffer solution than the polymers with random molecular structure.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a natural polymer consisting of disaccharide units of D-glucuronic acid and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine. It has a great potential and success in cosmetic and biomedical applications. However, native HA is highly soluble and easily metabolized by enzymes such as hyaluronidase. Thus, various studies have been reported on modifying the physicochemical properties of HA, while maintaining its biocompatibility. For controlled drug delivery, many trials for fabricating HA microspheres were achieved under chemical reaction. The HA microspheres fabricated to improve the physical stability of HA using adipic acid dihydrazide (ADH) by cross-linking reaction has been reported earlier, however it lacks the desired physical stability and rapidly decomposes by swelling or enzymes. Therefore, we prepared double cross-linked HA microspheres (DC-HA microspheres) and alginate containing HA microspheres (AC-HA microspheres) to enhance its physicochemical properties. DC-HA microspheres were prepared using trisodium trimetaphosphate (STMP) under crosslinking reaction after ADH cross-linking reaction. AC-HA microspheres were prepared by adding alginate as a networking polymer. These microspheres were characterized by morphology, particle size, zeta potential, stability against hyaluronidase. Results showed that the DC-HA and AC-HA microspheres are more stable than that of HA microspheres.

The present study was carried out to determine the optimum conditions of different factors (ratio of lard to water, ${\beta}$-CD concentrations, mixing temperature, mixing time and mixing speed) on cholesterol reduction from lard by using crosslinked ${\beta}$-CD. Crosslinked ${\beta}$-CD was prepared with adipic acid. When the lard was treated under different conditions, the range of cholesterol removal was 91.2 to 93.0% with 5% crosslinked ${\beta}$-CD, which was not significantly different among treatments. In a recycling study, cholesterol removal with crosslinked ${\beta}$-CD in the first trial was 92.1%, which was similar to that with new crosslinked ${\beta}$-CD. In up to eight time trials, over 90% of cholesterol removal was found. The present study indicated that the optimum conditions for cholesterol removal using crosslinked ${\beta}$-CD were a 1:3 ratio of lard to water, 5% crosslinked ${\beta}$-CD concentration, $40^{\circ}C$ mixing temperature, 1 h mixing time and 150 rpm mixing speed. In addition, crosslinked ${\beta}$-CD made by adipic acid resulted in an effective recycling efficiency.

The present study was carried out to examine the effect of crosslinked ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin(${\beta}$-CD) made by adipic acid on cholesterol removal rate and find the structural change after recycling on SEM observation. The size reduction and morphological changes were found during the recycling process and the profound changes were observed at 8th time reuse. After cholesterol removal in milk, the used crosslinked ${\beta}$-CD was washed for cholesterol dissociation and reused. In recycling study, the cholesterol removal rate at first trial was 92.5% in milk, which was mostly same as that using new crosslinked ${\beta}$-CD(92.4%). With repeated 10th reuse of crosslinked ${\beta}$-CD resulted in 81.4% of cholesterol removal in milk. Similar trend was found in cream and cholesterol removal was 91.5% at 1st trial and 83.4% at 10th trial. In both milk and cream samples, the removal rate at 1st reuse was not significantly different from that at 6th reuse(p>0.05). The present study indicated that crosslinked ${\beta}$-CD made by adipic acid resulted in the effective recycling efficiency, especially up to 6th reuse and morphological modifications were not distinguishable up to 8th reuse.

This study was attempted to investigate changes in physiochemical properties of the preparation of saccharification kochujang with retrogradated cooked rice, bread, rice cake and sensory evaluation during 60days aging. 1. Moisture content in 4 samples were slowly increased and pH of kochujang was slowly decreased during aging. 2. Reducing sugar content were about 1.4~2 times higer than $T_3$ and $T_2$ at 50days of aging. 3. In no significant difference 4 samples, the level of adipic acid, citric acid, malic acid was the most and that of acetic acid, iso-butyric acid, fumaric acid, lactic acid, tartaric acid was smaller. 4. Sensory evaluation conducted by fifteen university students as panelist showed that their were more significant difference among four samples and notable preferance for $T_3$ over $T_0$, $T_1$, $T_2$.

Two-packaged polyurethane coatings were prepared by blending benzoic acid lactone modified polyester polyol(BLMPs) and HDI-biuret. BLMPs were synthesized by polycondensation of benzoic acid, viscosity depression component, with 1,4-butanediol, adipic acid, and polycaprolactone polyol. Kinematic viscosity of BLMP was gradually decreased with increasing benzoic acid content in BLMP. The low viscosity of modified polyester has an advantage of making a high-solid content coatings. After the film was coated with the prepared polyurethane coatings and cured at room temperature, the various physical properties were measured. They showed good physical properties such as flexibility, impact resistance, cross hatch adhesion, yellowness index, and rust resistance. These advantages are the results of introducing polycaprolactone polyol.

The objective of the present study was to investigate the rheological properties of potato starch cross-linked with different concentrations (0, 0.125, 0.25, and 0.5%, w/v) of cross-linking agents (10 g of adipic acid and 40 g of acetic anhydride). Cross-linked potato starch dispersions showed shear-thinning behaviors (n=0.43~0.63) at $25^{\circ}C$. Apparent viscosity (${\eta}_{a,100}$), consistency index (K), and yield stress (${\sigma}_{oc}$) significantly increased with an increase in the concentrations of cross-linking agents from 0.125 to 0.5% (w/v). Storage modulus (G') and loss modulus (G'') increased, whereas complex viscosity (${\eta}^*$) was reduced with increasing frequency (${\omega}$) from 0.63 to 62.8 rad/s. Magnitudes of G' and G'' for cross-linked potato starch were significantly increased with an elevation in the concentrations of cross-linking agents. G' values of cross-linked potato starches were significantly higher than G'', indicating that the starches had more elastic properties than viscous properties. Cox-Merz rule was not applicable to potato starch dispersions.

We investigated the effect of the concentration of stannous 2-ethylhexanoate catalyst on the esterification rate between adipic acid (AA) and each of two PEG oligomers, diethylene glycol (DEG) and polyethylene glycol (PEG600). The concentration of the catalyst was varied from 0.15 to 2.0 wt.%. To attach hydroxy group to each end of the poly(oxyethylene-co-adipate) synthesized from AA and the PEGs, the esterification was performed with excessive PEG oligomers ([PEG]/[AA]=2) at $170^{\circ}C$. The degree of polymerization of the poly(oxyethylene-co-adipate)diol products were three. The apparent rate constant ($k_{app}$) of the esterification between AA and DEG shows the first order dependency on the catalyst concentration ($k_{app}=0.88[C_{cat}]$), whereas the $k_{app}$ of the esterification between AA and PEG600 has a relation of $k_{app}=0.123[C_{cat}]^{0.55}$ with the catalyst concentration. It is expected that the rate of esterification between AA and DEG has a non-linear dependency on the catalyst concentration as the catalyst concentration approaches to 0.22M.

Two-component polyurethane (PU) flame-retardant coatings were prepared by blending tribromo modified polyesters ($TBAO_s$) and isocyanate.$TBAO_s$ were synthesized by condensation polymerization of tribromoacetic acid, a flame-retardant component, with 1,4-butanediol, adipic acid, and trimethylolpropane. The content of tribromoacetic acid was varied by 10, 20, and 30 wt% for the reaction. Various physical properties of these new flame-retardant coatings were comparable to nonflame-retardant coatings. Coatings with 20 wt% tribromoacetic acid did not burn during the vertical burning test.

Chlorine-containing modified polyester polyols were synthesized by two-step condensation reactions. Intermediate was synthesized by the esterification of monochloroacetic acid with trimethylolpropane in the first step. Polycondensation of the intermediate (MCAOs), 1,4-butanediol, and trimethylolpropane with adipic acid was carried out. Two-component polyurethane (PU) coatings were prepared by blending MCAOs and IPDI-isocyanurate. There new flame-retardant coatings showed various properties comparable to other non-flame-retardant coatings. They were superior to flammable coatings from the experimental results showing rapid and 10 to 13 hours of pot-life. Coatings with 30wt% monochloroacetic acid was not flammable by the vertical flame retardancy test.
