Energetic monomers with new design concept were synthesized for energetic prepolymers. Novel energetic monomers consisted of ring-opening polymerizable oxirane and a molecular explosive moiety instead of small explosophores as energetic functional groups. According to the design concept, glycidyl dinitroazetidine (GDNAZ) and glycidyl nitroazetidinol(GNAZO) energetic monomers were synthesized, respectively, and characterized by NMR, EA and GC MS. Heat of formation and detonation performance were calculated by theoretical method to evaluate energy performance of these novel energetic monomers. The result revealed that GDANZ and GNAZO possessed high potential as new energetic monomers for synthesizing energetic prepolymers and binders in PBXs.

4-Hydroxy-4'-methoxyazobenzene and 4-hydroxy-4'-cyanoazobenzene were synthesized from phenol with p-anisidine and p-aminobenzonitrile through a diazotization reaction, respectively. They were reacted with 2-chloroethanol, 2-(2-chloroethoxy)ethanol, or 2-[2-(2-chloroethoxy)ethoxy]ethanol to produce six kinds of new mesogenic alcohols having an azobenzene group that is sensitive to the ultraviolet. Twelve kinds of new photoresponsive monomers with two symmetrical mesogens were prepared by the reaction of the mesogenic alcohols with fumaric acid or maleic acid through a Mitsunobu reaction. The resulting monomers have different length of flexible ethyleneoxy spacer tethered to azobenzene group. The length of the spacer affected their thermal stability, solubility, and phase transition temperature. Structures of the monomers were identified by FT-IR and ¹H-NMR spectra. Their phase transition temperatures and thermal stability were also investigated by a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and a thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). From an optical polarizing microscopy, all the prepared monomers except fumarate-1 and maleate-1 were found to show enantiotropic liquid crystallinity with a smectic texture like focal-conic, fan-shaped, and batonnet textures.

In this research, the relationships between the chemical structures of 10 different acrylate monomers with 3 different cross-linking monomers were evaluated. The thermal stabilities of the prepared copolymers were evaluated by their weight-loss percentage through thermogravimetric analysis, and their glass-transition temperatures were analyzed using differential scanning calorimetry. Based on the results, some relationships between the chemical structures of the monomers and their properties were derived and are discussed herein.

This miniaccount presents the selective examples of our recent discoveries in the photopolymerization of vinyl monomers using the organic initiators such as hydrosilanes, poly(hydroarylsilane)s, benzoin silyl ethers, and thianthrene cation radical. In the photopolymerization of vinyl monomers with silanes polysilanes, while the polymerization yields and polymer molecular weights of the poly(MMA)s containing the silyl moieties decreased, the TGA residue yields and intensities of SiH stretching IR bands increased as the mole ratio of the silanes over MMA increased. The hydroarylsilane and poly(hydroarylsilane) seemed to influence strongly on the photopolymerizaiton of olefinic monomers as both chain initiation and chain transfer agents. For the photohomopolymerization and photocopolymerization of MA and AA, the similar trends were observed. Benzoin silyl ethers and thianthrene cation radical also exhibit the photoinitiating ability in the photopolymerization of MMA.

The purpose of this study was to estimate the contents of the residual monomers, such as Bis-GMA and TEGDMA. In this study, materials used were six kinds of anterior and posterior visible light-cured resins. Resins were placed in disk-shaped Teflon mold (8.5mm in diameter, 2.0mm in thickness), and cured for 20 seconds with visible light source attached wide diameter lightguide. The specimens were immersed in 10ml ethanol and stored for 5 days at $37^{\circ}C$. The concentration of residual monomers in eluate solution was analysed by HPLC, and the following results are obtained. 1. The residual Bis-GMA and TEGDMA were detected in all materials used, and the ranges of quantity of the residual Bis-GMA was 0.101-1.236 wt% and that of TEGDMA was 0.230-5.794 wt%.2. The contents of residual TEGDMA was detected higher than that of residual Bis-GMA (P < 0.01). 3. The content of residual monomers was detected to be highest in Bis-Fil M as microfilled type. 4. In most of the materials used, there was no significant difference in the contents of residual monomers between anterior and posterior light-cured resins.

A series of vinyl monomers and their saturated model compounds containing different chromophores were synthesized. These monomers display strong intra-molecular fluorescence quenching, their fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes are generally lower than those of their model compounds. It was found that the C=C bonds in these monomers played a key role in the intra-molecular quenching, which was confirmed by intermolecular fluorescence quenching and time-resolved fluorescence studies. On the basis of the intra-molecular quenching, a new fluorescence approach can be developed to monitor the process of the polymerization and curing of bismaleimides, which can directly reflect the C=C bond consumption during polymerization and curing.

The phosphors of high luminous efficiency for PDP application must have high purity, single phase, and dense surface. In this work, the polymeric reaction was applied to preparation of spherical phosphor by aerosol pyrolysis in order to enhance mechanical and optical characteristics. The red phosphor of (Y,Gd)$BO_3$:Eu was prepared from polymeric precursor, in which citric acid and ethylene glycol were used as ion carriers, i.e monomers. For enhancing the luminescence intensity and mechanical characteristics. optimum synthesizing condition were investigated through concentration of monomers, synthetic temperature. doped activator concentrations, and annealing process. The phosphors synthesized with monomers showed quite different morphology from those without monomers. It was observed that polymeric precursor made an effect on particle formation mechanism and status of particles surface. The resultant spherical phosphors show the comparable luminescent properties to the commercial product (product by Nichia co.). Also, they were observed to have the rigid surface.

Polyamides have great potentials for diverse applications and the present production of their monomers mostly relies on resources from fossil fuel. Starting from undecylenic acid, a natural resource, we have developed both divergent and efficient processes for $C_{10}$, $C_{11}$ and $C_{12}$ ${\omega}$-amino acid and ${\alpha},{\omega}$-dicarboxylic acid monomers of the polyamides.

This research was conducted to analyze the compatibility of used monomers and produce the high functional contact lens material containing silicone monomers. Silicone monomer (Sil-OH), Trimethylsilylmethacrylate (TSMA) were used as additives for the basic combination of Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsesquioxane (POSS), methyl methacrylate (MMA) and methyl acrylate (MA). And also, the materials were copolymerized with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as the cross-linking agent, AIBN (thermal polymerization initiator) as the initiator. It is judged that the fabricated lenses of all combinations are optically excellent and thus used monomers have good compatibility. Measurement of the optical and physical characteristics of the manufactured hydrophilic lens material were varied in each case. Especially TSMA with POSS increases the oxygen permeability and Sil-OH with POSS increases the wettability by the addition of Sil-OH. These materials were considered to have compatibility each other, so it can be used in functional contact lens material.

To investigate the formation of bound residue with soil organic materials by oxidative coupling, nitroaromatics and their reduced metabolites, the insecticide parathion and the herbicide asulam were incubated with oxidoreductase, laccase or horseradish peroxidase, in the presence or absence of humic monomers. Most of aminotoluenes and amino-nitrophenols were completely transformed while most of nitrotoluenes and nitrophenols remained unchanged by a lactase or horseradish peroxidase in the presence or absence of humic monomers. Amino-nitrotoluenes were not transformed without humic monomers, but the addition of various humic monomers caused a considerable difference in the transformation of amino-nitrotoluenes by a lactase or horseradish peroxidase. Amino-nitrotoluenes were most transformed in the presence of catechol, syringaldehyde and protocatechuic acid. The insecticide parathion with nitro group and its metabolite were not mostly transformed in the presence or absence of humic monomers. The herbicide asulam with amino group remained unchanged without humic monomers as well, but the stimulating effect on the transformation of asulam was caused by the addition of catechol, syringaldehyde, protocatechuic acid or caffeic acid with a lactase.
