The cure behavior of commercial epoxy molding compounds (EMC) commonly used for IC package was studied at constant cure temperatures as well as at constant heating rates using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), rheometer, and dielectric analyzer (DEA). The cure kinetics were obtained using autocatalytic reaction model according to the Ryan Dutta method after assuming m+n equal to 2. The prediction of reaction rates by the model equation corresponded well to experimental data at all temperatures except for 10$0^{\circ}C$. The phase transitions such as gelation and vitrification occurred during network formation. At each isothermal cure temperature, $T_{g}$ was measured in accordance with cure time, and the vitrification point was attained when $T_{g}$ was equal to $T_{cure}$. The temperature dependence of gel points and vitrification points showed good agreement with Arrhenius relation. DEA using parallel plate electrode was effective for the monitoring of EMC cure. we knew that if the resin systems are materials of comparable quality, $_{gel}$$T_{g}$ is constant regardless of accelerator concentration in TTT (Time-Temperature-Transformation) diagram.

In this study, electrical properties of polyethylene of raised temperature resistance (PE-RT) have been studied through an examination of AC conductivity, dielectric constant, and space charge distributions. A dielectric constant was investigated by Dielectric Analyzer (DEA). Measurements of space charge distributions for PE-RT were carried out using Pulsed Electroacoustic (PEA) techniques, and it was possible to observe the negative charge near the cathode overlapped with the positive induced charge peak, the polarity of which remains unchanged after a short circuit.

Polyanilines were prepared by the oxidative polymerization in the presence of ammonium persulfate as an oxidant. After dehydration, a doping was carried out by mixing the polymer solution with dopants and immersing into aqueous dopant solutions. Using various riopants, the d-spacing of polyanilines can be controlled from $3.72{\AA}$ to $4.844{\AA}$. The d-spacing of polyanilines with polymeric or bulky dopants was larger than that of as-cast polyaniline. The characterization of the physical properties were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dielectric analyzer (DEA) etc. Annealed polyaniline membrane exhibited the oxygen permeability of 0.072 barrer and the oxygen selectivity to nitrogen was 6.87. For the gas separation of polyanilines with polymeric or bulky riopants, the permeability increased while the selectivity detereased. Permeability can be readily controlled by the use of bulky dopants.
