Radiation technology is an effective way for regulating polymeric materials to physicochemical and mechanical properties. New polymeric hydrogels based on vinyl ethers have been synthesized by the $\gamma$-initiated polymerization method. In this paper, we have studied the effect of radiation on mechanical and electrochemical properties of new rubber-like polymeric composite materials based on polyvinylether of ethyleneglycol (PVEEG).

The partition behavior or proteins in an aqueous two-phase system of poly (ethyleneglycol)-potassium phosphate buffer (PEG/PPB) was investigated. The proteins of different surface hydrophobicity, i.e. Bovine serum albumin (BSA), ${\beta}-lactoglobulin$, ovalbumin. moved to the PPB-rich bottom phase in a PEG(12%)/PPB (12%) two-phase system resulting in very low partition coefficients. When the concentration of PPB increased to 15% level. the electric potential of bottom phase changed from +50 mV to zero and the partition coefficient tended to increase. The change In the molar ratio of $K_2HPO_4/KH_2PO_4$ in PPB from 1.43 to 9.55 caused the volume ratio of top to bottom phase $(V_t/V_b)$ to be decreased and protein partition coefficient increased. When the concentration of PPB was elevated from 14% to 26%, the $V_t/V_b$ decreased from 1.5 to 0.39 and the partition coefficient of proteins increased drastically; ${\beta}-lactoglobulin$ 74 fold. BSA 32 fold, ovalbumin 12 fold and lysozyme 5 fold.

Poly(ethyleneglycol methacrylate-co-benzyl methacrylate) (P(PEGMA-co-BMA)) microgel was prepared by precipitation copolymerization of PEGMA and benzyl methacrylate in poly(acrylic acid)/ethanol solution. The microgels with various sizes were obtained by changing the concentration of poly(acrylic acid), monomer and nature of solvents. The particle size of P(PECMA-co-BMA) microgels was decreased with increasing the concentration of poly(acrylic acid) and increased with that of monomer. By increasing solubility parameter of solvents, the particle size was inecreased. The size of P(PEGMA-co-BMA) microgels was controlled by experimental conditions from $0.1{\mu}m$ to $0.35{\mu}m$.

The mechanical degradation of poly (-vinylacetate) in several mixed solvents (dioxane-n-butanol, dioxane-sec-butanol, dioxane-ethyleneglycol, dioxane-kerosene.) was studied using the capillary flow method. The velocity constant of scission reaction (k) and the limited degree of polymerization (g) were compared at the same value of [${\eta}$], which is considered as the parameter of molecular dimension of polymers in solution. As result, (k) did not change much, even if the species and the volume fraction of poor (non-) solvents changed, while the value of (g) changed according to the species of poor solvents and the value of [${\eta}$]. From the facts described above, It follows that the limited degree of polymerization (g) were affected by the composition and distribution of mixed solvent molecules around the polymer chain, and the value of $\alpha$ (at [${\eta}$] = $KM^a$) in the polymer solution.

The catalytic glycolysis process is the method of chemical recycling where the polyol and carbamate compounds recovered by transesterification reaction are reused to produce new polyurethane foams. In this work, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, and 1,4-butanediol were used to decompose polyurethane foams and various metallic acetates were provided as catalysts. The catalytic glycolsis of polyurethane foams was taken place in the reaction temperature of $180{\sim}200^{\circ}C$. The reaction rates of catalytic glycolysis reaction were indicated by the viscosity of the reaction products at different reaction times. IR and GPC analysis showed the types and the molecular weight distributions of the products. The catalytic glycolysis was profitable for using ethyleneglycol at high temperature. The activities of the catalysts are suitable for K, Na, Tl acetate, and the products are composed of comparatively high-contained amine compounds and carbamate compounds. In the case of Sr acetate and Quinoline, the reaction rate was somewhat low. However, the content of polyol was high and the content of the side-products was low. The foams which were prepared by blending up to 20wt% of recovered polyol with virgin polyols showed better physical properties in tensile strength, hardness, tear strength, and compressive strength compared to those of polyurethane foams from virgin polyol.

The purpose of this study was to decrease the protein adsorption and improve the function of the hydrophobic acrylic Intraocular lens(IOL). Hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lenses were prepared by using ethyleneglycol phenyletheracrylate (EGPEA), styrene and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA). Polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) and 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) were used as additives. Water contents, wettability, light transmittance and protein adsorption amount were measured to evaluate the physical properties of the intraocular lens. The water content and wettability of all samples containing additives were increased and the amount of protein adsorption decreased. In particular, samples containing MPC showed a further decrease in protein adsorption. The hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lens with PVP and MPC was found to improve the function of the intraocular lens by reducing the protein adsorption while having basic physical properties.

Chitin, the natural polymer has been known as harmless and innoxious material to human and has been also known to be biodegradable. Chitosan which was prepared by the deacetylation of chitin, was propionylated to obtain porous bead shaped propionyl chitosan and its possibility as a water-absorbant polymer was investigated. Propionyl chitosan porous bead was synthesized by acylation reaction using emulsion method of acetic acid solution and propionyl chitosan was partially crosslinked using ethyleneglycol diglycidyl ether. Through the experiment varying the moles of propionic anhydride, reaction time and reaction temperature, best results for water-absorption ability was obtained at reaction condition of 5 moles of propionic anhydride, 10 hours of reaction time and $22^{\circ}C$ of reaction temperature. The absorption ability to the distilled water, various salt solutions, artificial urine and artificial blood, absorption time and retention of water of synthesized porous bead were investigated and also mechanical strength after crosslinking was determined.
