Atomic force microscope (AFM) enables us to stretch a single polymer chain by picking it at its two modified termini. Using this method called "nanofishing," we have studied statistical properties of single polymer chains. A force-extention curve obtained for a polystyrene with thiol termini in a cyclohexane showed a good agreement with a worm-like chain (WLC) model, and thus gave microscopic information about entropic elasticity. In this report, the experiments were performed at wide-range temperatures, resulting in wide-range solvent qualities from poor to good solvent condition. The temperature dependence of statistical properties of polystyrene was examined. The coil-strand transformation realized in a poor solvent was also discussed.

In this paper, the mechanical property change was investigated by adding 1,4-butanediol as chain extender of polyurethane dispersion for leather coating. Reagents for the synthesis were polypropylene glycol(PPG), isoporon diisocyanate(IPDI), dimethylolpropionic acid(DMPA) and 1,4-BD. All samples showed good solvent resistance and flexibility by different content of the 1,4-BD. As results, samples which contains a lot of 1,4-BD showed good properties whth strength of $1.80kg_f/mm^2$ and abrasion test measurement of 49.54 mg.loss. According to elongation test, the sample which contains low amount of 1,4-BD was good property as 364 %.

Polyurethane (PU) prepolymers were synthesized from polytetramethylene ether glycol (PTMG), 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), toluene 2,4-diisocyanate (TDI) and isophoron diisocyanate (IPDI). After chain extention using dimethyol propionic acid (DMPA), aqueous polyurethane anionomers were prepared from triethyl amine (TEA) as a neutralizer. The effect of the content of chain extender and the degree of neutralization on the state of emulsification, adhesive strength, viscosity, glass transition temperature and physical properties of emulsion cast film were investigated using UTM, Viscometer and DSC.

Polyurethane(PU) prepolymers were synthesized from polytetramethylene ether glycol(PTMG), with 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate(MDI), toluene 2,4-diisocyanate (TDI) and isophoron diisocyanate(IPDI). After chain extention using n-methyl-diethanol amine(n-MDEA), aqueous polyurethane cationomers were prepared by addition of glycolic acid(GA) as a quaternizer. The effect of the content of chain extender and the degree of neutralization on the stability of emulsion, adhesive strength, viscosity, glass transition temperature and physical properties of emulsion cast film were investigated using UTM, viscometer and DSC.

Prepared polyurethane resin for vegetable leather coating on surface was synthesized with glycerol which had different mole ratio. Mechanical properties of the synthesized polyurethane resin were measured by the SEM, FT-IR, UTM. Growing concerns in the evnironment-friendly polymer resin, we have synthesized low late obtained solvent water dispersion resin to be coating on vegetable leather. The increase of aliphatic trihydric alcohol glycerol mole %, abrasion resistance and tensile strength had highly stronger in intensity and longer durability. On the contrary, demonstrated reduce properties of elongation and flexibility. In the result of toluene solvent resistance, there was no effect of increased or decreased by the ratio of glycerol mole %.
