Surface modification of hydrophobic polymeric materials to be hydrophilic or to have specific functional groups is of great importance for a diversity of applications of the materials. In this study, polyethylene (PE) film surfaces were modified by vapor phase photografting of hydrophilic vinyl monomers with different functional groups. The functional monomers were introduced on PE films by introducing the monomers in vapor phase using a vapor phase photografting apparatus designed by our laboratory. Functional monomers used were acrylic acid (negatively chargeable), acrylamide and allylalcohol (neutral), and allylamine and N,N-dimethyl aminopropyl acryamide (positively charged). The functional monomer-grafted PE film surfaces were characterized by the measurement of water contact angles and the attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The vapor phase photografting seems to be effective means for introduction of various functional groups onto polymeric substrates.

PM3 semiempirical calculations were carried out to study the frequency-dependent nonlinear optical properties of thiophene, furan, pyrrole, (1,2,4)-triazole, (1,3,4)-oxadiazole, and (1,3,4)-thiadiazole monomers and oligomers. The longitudinal component, αxx, is the largest of three principle components. On the other hand, the out-of-plane component, αzz, is the smallest. Moreover, the out-of-plane component (αzz) of thiophene, furan, pyrrole, (1,2,4)-triazole, (1,3,4)-oxadiazole, and (1,3,4)-thiadiazole monomers show constant changes with increasing optical frequencies. The frequency-dependent first- order polarizabilities increase in the order: thiophene > (1,2,4)-triazole > pyrrole > furan > (1,3,4)-thiadiazole > (1,3,4)-oxa-diazole monomers and oligomers. The effects of β(-2ω;ω,ω) (SHG) shows a larger dispersion compared with (-ω;ω,0) (EOPE) and β(0;-ω,ω) (OR). The second- order polarizabilities of thiophene, furan, pyrrole, (1,2,4)-triazole, (1,3,4)-thiadiazole, and (1,3,4)-oxadiazole monomers for the various second- order effects have the order: β(-2ω;ω,ω) (SHG) > β(-ω;ω,0) (EOPE) > β(0;-ω,ω) (OR) and thiophene > pyrrole > (1,2,4)-triazole > furan > 1,3,4-thiadiazole > 1,3,4-oxadiazole monomers. The third- order polarizabilities for the various third- order effects have the following order: γ(-3ω;ω',ω,ω) (THG) > γ(-2ω;0,ω,ω) (EFISHG) > γ(-ω;ω',-ω,ω) (IDRI) > γ(-ω;0,0,ω) (OKE). The effects of THG increase rapidly with increasing optical frequencies compared with the other effects. In particular, OKE effects increase most slowly with increasing optical frequencies. Also, the effects of THG for thiophene, furan, pyrrole, (1,2,4)-triazole, (1,3,4)-thiadiazole, and (1,3,4)-oxadiazole oligomers show the order thiophene > (1,2,4)-triazole > furan > pyrrole > (1,3,4)-thiadiazole > (1,3,4)-oxadiazole oligomers. In particular, the third- order polarizabilities of thiophene and (1,3,4)-thiadiazole oligomers are about four and three times larger than those of (1,3,4)-oxadiazole and (1,2,4)-triazole oligomer, respectively.

The propenyl ether-type monomers which are applicable for cationic photo-polymerization were synthesized by the condensation reaction of mono and di-functional alcohol with allyl bromide. To examine photo-curable reactivity, these monomers were combined with cationic photoinitiator to prepare coating composition. As a result, the initial rate of polymerization of POMB in mono propenyl ether type was 10.2, which was relatively lower than BPOB in di-propenyl ethers type. However, POMB containing 1.5mol% photoinitiator almost quantitatively reacted within 90 seconds. In addition, Sulfonium salt type photo-initiators containing long-alkyl group showed good solubility with monomers and apperaed to have comparatively higher rate of polymerization and conversion ratio when applying DPSA and DPST which have high acidity on all monomers.

Paeonol, quercetin, β-sitosterol, and gallic acid extracted from Moutan Cortex had been reported to possess anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tumor activities. This work aimed to illustrate the potential anti-oxidative mechanism of monomers in human liver hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2) cells-induced by hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) and to evaluate whether the hepatoprotective effect of monomers was independence or synergy in mice stimulated by carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄). Monomers protected against oxidative stress in HepG2 cells in a dose-response manner by inhibiting the generation of reactive oxygen species, increasing total antioxidant capacity, catalase and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities, and activating the antioxidative pathway of nuclear factor E2-related factor 2/Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Nrf2/Keap1) signaling pathway. We found that the in vitro antioxidant capacities of paeonol and quercetin were better than those of β-sitosterol and gallic acid. Furthermore, paeonol apparently diminished the levels of alanine transaminase and aspartate aminotransferase, augmented the contents of glutathione and SOD, promoted the expressions of Nrf2 and heme oxygenase-1 proteins in mice stimulated by CCl₄. In HepG2 cells, paeonol, quercetin, β-sitosterol, and gallic acid play a defensive role against H₂O₂-induced oxidative stress through activating Nrf2/Keap1 pathway, indicating that these monomers have anti-oxidative properties. Totally, paeonol and quercetin exerted anti-oxidative and hepatoprotective effects, which is independent rather than synergy.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether pH and time has any influence on the degradation behavior of composite restoration by analyzing the leached monomers of dental composites qualitatively and quantitatively after storage in acetate buffer solution as a function of time using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) / mass spectrometer. Materials and Methods：Three commercial composite restorative resin materials (Z-250, Heliomolar and Aeliteflo) with different matrix structure and filler composition were studied. Thirty specimens (7mm $diameter{\times}2mm$ thick) of each material were prepared. The cured materials were stored in acetate buffer solution at different pH (4, 7) for 1, 7 and 45days. As a reference, samples of unpolymerized composite materials of each product were treated with methanol (10mg/ml). Identification of the various compounds was achieved by comparison of their mass spectra with those of reference compound, with literature data. and by their fragmentation patterns. Data were analysed statistically using ANOVA and Duncan's test. Results：1. Amounts of leached TEGDMA in Aeliteflo were significantly larger than those of UDMA in Z-250 and Heliomolar at experimental conditions of different storage time and pH variation (p<0.001). 2. As to comparison of the amounts of leached monomers per sorage time, amounts of leached TEGDMA in Aeliteflo and UDMA in Z-250 and Heliomolar were increased in the pH 4 solution more significantly than in the pH 7 solution after 1day, 7days and 45days, respectively (p<0.001). 3. In total amounts of all the leached monomers with storage times, the overall amounts of pH 4 extracts were larger than those of pH 7 extracts for all resin groups, but there was no significant difference (p>0.05).

In this study, polysilanes were synthesized by electroreduction with different monomers such as $CH_3HSiCl_2$, $PhSiCl_3$, $CH_3SiCl_3$ and $(CH_3)_2SiCl_2$ by Mg electrodes under ultrasonic radiation. The effects of monomers and additives (p-dibromobenzene (DBB), naphthalene (NAPH) and anthracene (ANTH)) on the reaction rate were investigated. Polymerization of $PhSiCl_3$ among the four monomers showed the highest rate. p-dibromobenzene (DBB) was proved the most effective additive. Based on the observations, some possible reaction mechanisms of the polymerization were proposed.

The dielectric properties and various pattern-forming states of dual-frequency material in a nematic phase, as well as its mixture containing low concentrations of reactive monomers, are reported. The dielectric relaxation behaviors of nematic MLC 2048 are presented and compared to its mixture containing both mesogenic and nonmesogenic reactive monomers. The sign-inversion frequency of the dielectric anisotropy was significantly shifted on the addition of small amounts of the reactive monomers. However, all three mixtures used in this study essentially exhibited the same field-induced instabilities at different frequencies and voltage domains of the applied electric field. A broad band of modulated states were found to exist above a critical voltage and within a voltage dependent frequency band in the vicinity of the sign-inversion frequency, $f_I$, of the dielectric anisotropy. As the $f_I$ of the mixtures shifted, so did the bands of the modulated state of the different mixtures and the temperatures, which were well matched with the measured $f_I$ value.

The metallocene compounds had been applied to the polymerizations of olefins and vinyl monomers with methylaluminoxane (MAO) cocatalyst, and they have usually one transition metal atom per molecule, i.e., mononuclear metallocene. Recently it has been found that the dinuclear metallocene compounds containing two transition metal atoms exhibit the peculiar polymerization behaviors for olefins and vinyl monomers. In this article, the dinuclear metallocenes are classified into four groups of dinuclear bent-metallocene, dinuclear ansa-metallocene, dinuclear constrained geometry catalyst and dinuclear half-metallocene, and then the synthesis of dinuclear metallocene of each group as well as the polymerization behaviors for ethylene, propylene, and styrene are described.
