A Chitulose film was made by dissolving chitin and cellulose in a dimethylacetamide/LiCl solvent system This film was completely degraded in 20 days in soil and penetrated by soil microorganisms in 16-26 hours. A permeability analysis of the film showed that water permeability was in the range of 0-187.5 $1/m^2$/day, depending upon the ratio of chitin to cellulose and decreased with increasing a cellulose content in the Chitulose film The permeabilities of organic compounds, $Na^+$ and oxygen change with the composition of the Chitulose file The film was tested with a burned 2~3degree rat for exploring its use as artificial skin. The rat was completely cured within 31 days without inflammation.

The tensile properties, acetic acid solubility and degree of swelling in distilled water of cellulose/chitosan and sericin/chitosan film blended by mixing chitosan acetic acid solution with cellulose solution or sericin solution were investigated and the effect of crosslinking agent on solubility and degree of swelling were also considered. From the experimental results, the model of intermolecular bond is proposed. Tensile modulus of 100% cellulose film is high but the tensile strength and elongation are low. The elongation of 100% chitosan film is high but tensile modulus and strength is low. But it is possible to make film having same or higher tensile strength and modulus compared to that of 100% cellulose film by mixing cellulose and chitosan or by mixing sericin and chitosan. Chitosan is solved in 5vol % acetic acid solution but cellulose and sericin are not solved. Degree of swelling of chitosan in distilled water is higher than that of cellulose and sericin. Lower than 40wt% chitosan content, the solubility of cellulose/chitosan film in 5vol % acetic acid solution shows lower expected value but higher in case of sericin/chitosan film.

This study focused on investigating the effect of aligned cellulose fibers to the performance of EAPap actuator. The performance of EAPap is dependant on the material direction of cellulose film. Electrospinning was used to improve material directionality of EAPap. DMAc cellulose solution which cotton pulp was resolved in DMAc solvent was used for electrospinning cellulose film. To increase directionality of nano fibers, the Electrospun film was stretched by 10 % strain during drying process. Induced in-plane strain of Electrospun EAPap was proportional to the applied voltage and larger than that of spincast EAPap. It is concluded that the performance of EAPap was improved by aligning cellulose fibers.

차세대 디스플레이 소자로서 TAOS TFT (transparent amorphous oxide semiconductor Thin Film Transistor)가 주목 받고 있다. 또한, 최근에는 값 비싼 전자 제품을 저렴하고 간단히 처분 할 수 있는 시스템으로 대신 하는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그중, cellulose-fiber에 전기적 시스템을 포함시키는 e-paper에 대한 관심이 활발하다. cellulose fiber는 가볍고 깨지지 않으며 휘는 성질을 가지고 있다. 가격도 저렴하고 가공이여 용이하여 차세대 기판의 재료로서 주목받고 있다. 하지만, cellulose-fiber 위에는 고온의 열처리공정과 고품질 박막 성장이 어려워서 TFT 제작에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 산화물 반도체를 이용하여 TFT를 제작한 사례가 보고되고 있다. 또한, 채널 물질 뿐만 아니라 cellulose fiber에도 다른 물질을 첨가하거나 증착하여 전기적 화학적 특성을 개선시킨 사례도 많이 보고되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 가장 저품질의 용지로 알려진 신문지와 A4용지를 gate dielectric을 이용하여서 a-IGZO TFT를 제작하였다. 하지만, cellulose fiber로 만들어진 TFT의 경우에는 고온의 열처리가 불가능 하다. 따라서 저온에서 높을 효율은 보이는 microwave energy를 이용하여 열처리를 진행하였다. 추가적으로 저품질의 종이의 특성을 개선시키기 위해서 high-k metal-oxide solution precursor를 첨가 하여 TFT의 특성을 개선시켰다. 결과적으로 cellulose fiber에 metal-oxide solution precursor을 첨가하는 공정과 micro wave를 조사하는 방법을 사용하여 100도 이하에서 cellulose fiber를 저렴하고 우수한 성능의 TFT를 제작에 성공하였다.

In this study, cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) were modified through carboxymethylation or TEMPO-mediated oxidation and their effects on ionicity and characteristics of sheet, film, and foam were investigated. Carboxymethylation was carried out on pulp fibers as a pre-treatment before preparation of CNF. The gel-like and translucent CNF hydrogel was obtained by grinding of carboxymethylated cellulose fibers. Carboxymethylated CNF film and freeze dried sheet showed higher transparency than that of untreated CNF. The CNF sheet with high strength and the CNF foam without large ice crystals were obtained by using the carboxymethylated CNF. TEMPO-mediated oxidation was carried out as a post-treatment of CNF. The zeta potential and charge demand of TEMPO-oxidized CNF were increased with an increase in oxidation time and addition amount of NaClO. The density of sheet made of TEMPO oxidized CNF was increased with the amount of oxidizing agent. The TEMPO oxidized cellulose nanofiber (TOCN) which was obtained from supernatant after centrifugation could be converted to transparent film.

During extruder processing to manufacture cellulose fiber and film using cellulose-NMMO pre-dope produced by a new method, it seems to occur the changes of molecular weight and ${\alpha}$-cellulose content of cellulose upon thermal and mechanical degradation. In an extruder making cellulose solutions from the pre-dope obtained by high-speed mixer, the changes of cellulose molecular weight and ${\alpha}$-cellulose content resulted with the variations of processing temperature, concentration of cellulose, and residence time. The molecular weight and ${\alpha}$-cellulose content of cellulose decreased with decreasing cellulose concentration and increasing processing temperature. At 15% concentration and short residence time region, the change of ${\alpha}$-cellulose content was so high due to high-shear with an increase in temperature. From these processing conditions, the variations of ${\alpha}$-cellulose content and molecular weight showed different behaviors, and these processing conditions for making cellulose solution were found to be important factors.

Environmentally-friendly polymer composite films were manufactured from cellulose acetate (CA) and polyethylene (PE). To investigate the optimum manufacturing conditions for the composite, various tests such as thermal analysis, surface observation, IR spectra analysis, and elongation ratio of polymer composite films were carried out. The mixing ratio of each element and manufacture condition was found to be very important for the best goods.

The molecular interactions of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and cellulose acetate (CA) were investigated thoroughly via dilute solution viscometry in dimethylformamide (DMF) as a common solvent at $30^{\circ}C$. The intrinsic viscosities and viscometric interaction parameters were experimentally determined for both binary (polymer/dimethylformamide) and ternary (PAN/CA/dimethylformamide) systems. As all investigated PAN/CA ternaries evidenced negative viscometric interaction parameter values $({\Delta}b\;&{\Delta}k<0)$, the existence of repulsive intermolecular interactions was deduced, and PAN/CA blends were assigned as immiscible. Moreover, the results of microscopy photograph analysis indicated that pure PAN film evidences a homophasic structure, and the size of the phase domain increases gradually with increases in CA. In DSC analysis, it was determined that the glass transition temperature of the blend film increased slightly with increases in the CA content of the blend film.
