To change permselectivity between anions through the anion exchange membrane in electrodialysis, the various modified anion exchange membranes were prepared: highly crosslinked anion exchange membranes, anion exchange membranes having benzyl trialkylammonium groups with different carbon number of alkyl chain as anion exchange groups and anion exchange membranes having pyridinium groups with a hydrophilic or hydrophobic substituent at a different position as anion exchange groups. It became clear from the evaluation of these membranes that the degree of the hydrophilicity of the anion exchange membranes greatly affects the permselectivity between two artions. To increase the hydrophiticity of the anion exchange membranes further, electrodialysis was carried out in the presence of ethylene glycols and the permeation of strongly hydrated anions increased and that of less-hydrated anions decreased. It became clear that the change in the permselectivity between two artions is due to the change in the affinity of anions to the membranes, not the change in mobility ratio of the anions in the membranes phase.

Membranes made with perfluorinated polymers are of particular interest due to the unique features demonstrated by these materials. Both highly hydrophobic and hydrophilic membranes have been developed from appropriate perfluoropolymers, which were in turn obtained by copolymerization of TFE with special monomers available at the industrial scale. Highly hydrophobic membranes obtained from the glassy copolymers of TFE and 2,2,4 trifluoro-5 trifluoromethoxy-1,3 dioxole (Hyflo $n^{ }$ AD) show properties which make them particularly suited for use in the field of gas-liquid contactors and membrane distillation. Hydrophylic highly conductive proton exchange membranes obtained from the copolymer of TFE and a short-side-chain (SSC) perfluorosulfonylfluoridevinylether (Hyflo $n^{ }$ Ion) find interesting application in the field of fuel cells, especially in view of the current tendency to move to high temperature operation.n.

The conformational transition of oligopeptide multimer,-(HPPHPPP)n-, is studied (H:hydrophobic amino acid, P:hydrophilic amino acid). The helix/coil transitions are detected in the multimer. The transition depends on the number of amino acid in the sequence, the concentration of the oligopeptide, and temperature which affects helix stability constant (${\xi}$) and hydrophobic interaction parameter (wj). In the thermodynamic equilibrium system jA${\rightarrow}$Aj (where A stands for oligopeptide monomer), Skolnick et al., explained helix/coil transition of dimer by the matrix method using Zimm-Bragg parameters ${\xi}$ and $\sigma$ (helix initiation constant). But the matrix method do not fully explain dangling H-bond effects which are important in oligopeptide systems. In this study we propose a general theory of conformational transitions of oligopeptides in which dimer, trimer, or higher multimer coexists. The partition of trimer is derived by using zipper model which account for dangling H-bond effects. The transitions of multimers which have cross-linked S-S bonds or long chains do not occur, because they keep always helical structures. The transitions due to the concentration of the oligopeptides are steeper than those due to the chain length or temperature.

Multiblock copolymers consisting of poly( g-benzyl L-glutamate) (PBLG) as the hydrophobic part and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) as the hydrophilic part (GEG) were synthesized and characterized. GEG polymeric micelles were prepared by the dialysis technique. Particle size distributions based on intensity,volume, and number-average were 22.6 $\pm$ 11.9 nm, 23.5 $\pm$ 4.6 nm, and 23.7 $\pm$ 37 nm, respectively. It was observed that par-ticle size and size distribution of GEG polymeric micelles changed significantly with the choice of initial sol-vent. Transmission electron micrographs (TEM) showed the polymeric micelles to be spherically shaped, with sizes ranging from 20 nm to 40 nm in diameter. Fluorescence spectroscopy measurements suggested that GEG block copolymers wereassociated in water to form polymeric micelles, and the critical micelle concentrations (CMC) value of the block copolymers was 0.0094 g/L. Further evidenceof micelle formation of GEG block copolymers and limited mobility of the PBLG chain in the core ohe micelle was obtained with 1 H NMR in D2O.

Superabsorbent hydrogel (SAH) is a lightly crosslinked hydrophilic functional polymer material comprising a flexible chain structure, which can absorb and retain high amounts of water or aqueous fluids even under high pressure. Therefore, it is important to improve their characteristics such as absorption performance, residual monomer content, and water permeability. SAH nanocomposites were prepared using clay mineral as an inorganic filler and the influence of post-treatment processes such as quenching and aging process on their properties was studied. In addition, surface-crosslinking process was applied to improve the absorption performance associated with mechanical properties and water permeability. The structure of the SAH was characterized using attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and scanning electron microscopy.

It has been shown that ion implantation produces remarkable improvements in surface-sensitive physical and chemical properties as well as other mechanical properties, in polymers. In this study, ion implantation was performed onto polymer, PC(polycarbonate), in order to investigate surface hydrophilic property through contact angle measurement using distilled water. PC was irradiated with N, Ar, Xe ions at the irradiation energy of $20\;{\sim}\;50keV$ and the dose range of $5{\times}10^{15},\;1{\times}10^{16},\;7{\times}10^{16}\;ions/cm^2$. The contact angle of water has been reduced with increasing fluence and ion mass but increased with increasing implanted energy. The changes of chemical and structural property are discussed in view of infrared spectroscopy and FT-IR, XPS, which shows increasing C-O bonding and C-C bonding. The root mean square of surface roughness examined by means of AFM changed smoothly from 0.387nm to 0.207nm and the change of wettability was discussed with respect to elastic and inelastic collisions obtained as results of TRIM simulation. It was found that wettability of the modified PC surface was affected on change of functional group and nuclear stopping or linear energy transfer(LET, energy deposited per unit track length per ion) that causes chain scission by displacing atom from polymer chains, but was not greatly dependant on surface morphology.

불소의 함량이 $62\%$인 불소화된 폴리올($Fluorolink^{(R)}$:평균분자량 1000)을 이용하여 환경친화적인 불소함유 수분산 폴리우레탄을 합성하였다. 사용된 diisocyanate는 isophorone diisocyanate(IPDI)였으며, 폴리우레탄 내 불소의 함량 조절을 위해 폴리올은 poly(tetramethylene glycol)(PTMGG2000)과 $Fluorolink^{(R)}$을 정해진 비율로 조절하였고 친수성 음이온기의 도입을 위해 dimethanol propionic acid(DMPA)를 사용하였다. 이온성 작용기는 수분산 전에 triethyl mine(TEA)으로 중화하여 생성하였으며, 최종적으로 ethylene diamine(EDA)을 이용하여 사슬연장하였다. 기계적 물성을 측정한 결과 불소의 함량이 증가함에 따라 탄성률은 증가하였으나, 파괴 변형률은 감소하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 접촉각으로부터 얻은 표면에너지 값은 불소함량에 따라 감소하였으나 $Fluorolink^{(R)}$가 $20\%$ 이상에서는 큰 변화가 없어 소량의 $Fluorolink^{(R)}$ 만으로도 불소함유의 충분한 효과를 얻을 것으로 예상된다. 또한 열적 성질을 알아본 결과, $Fluorolink^{(R)}$의 함량이 증가할수록 $T_g$와 열분해온도가 낮아졌는데 이것은 soft segment를 구성하는 $Fluorolink^{(R)}$의 $T_g$와 분해온도가 PTMG 2000보다 낮기 때문에 나타나는 현상으로 여겨진다.

Pluronic as pharmaceutical excipients are listed in the US and British Pharmacopoeia. In particular, Pluronics exist as different compositions and display abundant phases as self-assembling into polymeric micelles with various morphologies depending on the aqueous solvent quality, the composition of structure, and hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB). Pluronics were also known as a P-gp modulator, which was exploited as a reversal molecule of multi-drug resistant (MDR) cancers. We selected a lamella forming Pluronic L92 which has high hydrophobicity and relatively long PEO block among L series of Pluronics. The dispersion of L92 showed great size particles and low stability. To increase the stability and to decrease the particle size, secondary Pluronics (F68, F88, F98, F127, P85, P105, and P123) with relatively long PEO chain were added into 0.1 wt% Pluronic L92 dispersion. The stability of binary systems was increased due to incorporated long PEO chain. Their particle sizes slightly decreased to over 200~400 nm and their solubilization capacity of binary systems didn't change except Pluronic L92/P123 mixtures. The L92/P123 systems showed ca. 100 nm sizes and lowest turbidity among the all systems. The solubilization capacity of 0.1 wt% L92/0.1 wt% P123 was slightly increased compared to 0.1 wt% L92 mono system and other binary systems. These nano-sized binary systems may have potential as alternative drug delivery systems with simple preparation method and overcome the drawbacks of mono systems such as low stability and loading capacity.

We have investigated the dielectric and electrical characteristics of palmitic acid(PA) stearic acid(SA) and arachidic acid(AA) Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films because these fatty acid systems have a same hydrophilic group and a different hydrophobic one(methylene group or alkyl chain length). The fatty acid systems were used as LB films and the status of the deposited films was confirmed by evaluating the transfer ratio the UV absorption and the capacitance. The dielectric characteristics such as the frequency-capacitance characteristics and the dielectric dispersion and absorption characteristics of PA SA and AA through-plane were measured. The relative dielectric constants of PA, SA and AA LB films were about 3.0~4.6, 2.7~3.0 and 2.4~3.0 respectively. That is the relative dielectric constants were decreased in proportion to the chain length of methylene group. Also the dielectric dispersion and absorption of each fatty acid LB films have arisen from spontaneous polarization of dipole polarization in the range of 10$^4$~10$^{5}$ ［Hz］. The conductivity of PA, SA and AA LB films obtained from I-V characteristics were about 9$\times$10$^{-14}$ , 3$\times$10$^{-14}$ and 5$\times$10$^{-15}$ ［S/cm］. respectively. These results have shown the insulating materials and could control the conductivity y changing the length of methylene group. Also we have confirmed that the barrier height of fatty acid systems were almost the same ones obtained from dielectric characteristics.
