This paper was intended to evaluate the effect of the blending condition of pigments on the packing structure of coating color and the interaction between pigments and latices on the optical and interior properties of coated paper. It has been studied many ways to modify the coating structure to induce the interaction among coating components as followings ; 1) to use dispersant for pigment, 2) to control the charge density and the type of surface charge of latex, 3) to support the water retention by adding water retention agent or flow modifier. This paper was performed through the introduction of interaction between pigments which were two kinds of clays and one precipitated calcium carbonate(PCC) and ionic latices of which anionic and amphoteric respectively under the certain blending condition of pigments where their blending ratio of clays to calcium carbonate was 70pph to 30pph. The reason is that packing volume of pigments was highest in that region and thixotropical behavior appears in measuring rheology of coating color. We measured the properties of coating color, interaction with pigments and latex, and properties of coated paper and its printability. As a results, we could find out that amphoteric latex had a great influence on the interaction with pigments, especially clays, no matter what grade and also affected the coating structure significantly in case that this blending condition was 70(clays) to 30(PCC). It produced a powerful effect on the forming of bulky and smooth coating structure and in turn improved the printability of coated paper.

N,N-dimethyldodecylamine (tertiary amine)-modified MMT (DDA-MMT) was prepared as an organically modified layered silicate (OLS), after which styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) nanocomposites reinforced with the OLS were manufactured via the latex method. The layer distance of the OLS and the morphology of the nanocomposites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). By increasing the amount of N,N-dimethyldodecylamine (DDA) up to 2.5 g, the maximum values of torque, tensile strength and wear resistance of the SBR nanocomposites were increased due to the increased dispersion of the silicate layers in the rubber matrix and the increased crosslinking of the SBR nanocomposites by DDA itself. When SBR nanocomposites were manufactured by using the ternary filler system (carbon black/silica/OLS) to improve their dynamic properties as a tire tread compound, the tan $\delta$(at $0^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$) property of the compounds was improved by using metal stearates instead of stearic acid. The mechanical properties and wear resistance were increased by direct substitution of calcium stearate for stearic acid because the filler-rubber interaction was increased by the strong ionic effect between the calcium cation and silicates with anionic surface. However, as the amount of calcium stearate was further increased above 0.5 phr, the mechanical properties and wear resistance were degraded due to the lubrication effect of the excessive amount of calcium stearate. Consequently, the SBR/organoclay nanocomposites that used carbon black, silica, and organoclay as their ternary filler system showed excellent dynamic properties, mechanical properties and wear resistance as a tire tread compound for passenger cars when 0.5 phr of calcium stearate was substituted for the conventionally used stearic acid.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of the type of base papers containing rice straw-BKP on the properties and printabilities of coated papers. Also, it was intended to evaluate the effect of coated paper prepared with anionic and amphoteric latex based coating color. The results obtained from this study were as follows. The fiber length of rice straw-BKP was observed much shorter than those of the wood pulps(Sw-BKP, Hw-BKP). This has effect on physical properties. Therefore, the results of measured physical properties were much lower than those of wood pulps. Also, physical properties tended to increase slightly with the increase of the mixing ratio of Sw-BKP. Opacity of the base paper containing rice straw-BKP, was higher than that of the wood pulps. As the mixing ratio of Sw-BKP increases the opacity tended to decrease. On the other hand, smoothness and roughness to rice straw-BKP were similar with Sw-BKP and its air permeability was lower than those of wood pulps. The optical properties of coated papers containing rice straw-BKP tended to be similar to those of other base papers. The ink receptivity of coated papers containg rice straw-BKP was higher than those of wood pulps and printing gloss was similar to wood pulps. The mixing ratio of Sw-BKP, the ink receptivity and printing gloss of rice straw-BKP were showed no difference irrespective the mixing ratio of Sw-BKP. Meannwhile, amphoteric latex improved the optical properties and printability of coated papers.

Monodisperse blue-colored poly(styrene-co-acrylic acid) latices were successfully prepared by seeded emulsion polymerization. Blue-colored latices with carboxyl anionic charge on the surface were synthesized at the second stage with the introduction of Blue 606 dye, acrylic acid, and 0.21 ${\mu}m$-polystyrene seed. All the blue-colored latices synthesized in this study were in the size range of 0.25~0.42 ${\mu}m$ and all uniform with less than 1.01 in PSD. The particle size increased with the addition of acrylic acid being delayed and colloidally stable latices were obtained over 30 min after its addition. The blue-colored latex with 20 wt% acrylic acid showed -145 mV of zeta-potential and $-9.4{\times}10^{-6}\;cm^2/Vs$ of electrophoretic mobility, and with 25 wt% of DVB showed high $T_g$ at 396.7 K.
