A reticulated PU-g-PAAc foam was modified through the surface treatment of PU foam by one atmospheric pressure plasma. The synthesized PU-g-PAAc foam was prepared for the purpose of immobilizing microbial organisms. We also attempted different plasma treatment methods including simple plasma treatment, plasma induced grafting and plasma induced grafting followed by plasma re-treatment. The effect of grafting on equilibrium water content (EWC) of PU forms was examined by swelling measurements. Adhesion test was performed to investigate the effect of different plasma treatment methods on the improvement of microbial immobilization. Two foams modified by plasma induced grafting and plasma re-treatment after grafting showed 2.7 and 3.0 fold higher microbial immobilization than unmodified one, respectively. Meanwhile, simple plasma treatment showed a little enhancement. FT-IR analysis of each sample verified the contribution of surface functional groups on the enhancement of microbial immobilization. SEM observation confirmed microbial adherence.

대기압 플라즈마 처리 및 글리시딜 메타크릴레이트(glycidyl methacrylate, GMA) 그래프트 공중합을 통해 폴리에틸렌(polyethylene, PE)의 표면을 개질하였다. 우선 RF-power, 플라즈마 처리시간, Ar의 유량, 처리 시편의 이동속도를 변화시켜 PE의 표면을 플라즈마 처리하고, 처리된 각 시편들의 접촉각 측정과 표면자유에너지 계산을 통하여 최적의 플라즈마 표면처리 조건을 구하였다. 그 결과 최적 표면처리 조건은 RF-power 200W, 플라즈마 처리시간 600 sec, Ar 유량 5 LPM, 처리 시편의 이동속도 20 mm/sec 이었다. 이 조건하에서 처리된 PE 표면에 GMA를 최대한 많이 도입하기 위하여 GMA 농도와 반응온도, 반응시간을 변수로 그래프트 공중합을 수행하였다. 반응전후 시편의 질량차이 분석을 통하여 각 시편들의 그래프트도(grafting degree, GD)를 측정하고, 가장 높은 GD를 얻을 수 있는 그래프트 공중합 반응조건을 결정하였다. 그 결과 GMA 최대 도입 조건은 GMA 농도 20 vol%, 반응온도 $80^{\circ}C$, 반응시간 4 hr 이었다.

1. Introduction : The conventional grafting polymerization technique requires chemically reactive groups on the surface as well as on the polymer chains. For this reason, a series of prefunctionalization steps are necessary for covalent grafting. The surface prefunctionalizational technique for grafting can be used to ionization radiation, UV, plasma, ion beam or chemical initiators. Of these techniques, radiation method is one of the useful methods because of uniform and rapid creation of active radical sites without catalytic contamination in grafted samples. If the diffusion of monomer into polymer is large enough to come to the inside of polymer substrate, a homogeneous and uniform grafting reaction can be carried out throughout the whole polymer substrate. Radiation-induced grafting method may attach specific functional moieties to a polymeric substrate, such as preirradiation and simultaneous irradiation. The former is irradiated at backbone polymer in vacuum or nitrogen gas and air, and then subsequent monomer grafting by trapped or peroxy radicals, while the latter is irradiated at backbone polymer in the presence of the monomer. Therefore, radiation-induced polymerization can be used to modification of the chemical and physical properties of the polymeric materials and has attracted considerable interest because it imparts desirable properties such as blood compatibility. membrane quality, ion excahnge, dyeability, protein adsorption, and immobilization of bioactive materials. Synthesizing biocompatible materials by radiation method such as preirradiation or simultaneous irradiation has often used $\gamma$-rays to graft hydrophilic monomers onto hydrophobic polymer substrates. In this work, in attempt to produce surfaces that show low levels of anti-fouling of bovine serum albumin(BSA) solutions, hydroxyethyl methacrylate(HEMA) was grafted polypropylene membrane surfaces by preirradiation technique. The anti-fouling effect of the polypropylene membrane after grafting was examined by permeation BSA solution.

Lanasol dyes containing ${\alpha}$-bromoacrylamide or ${\alpha},{\beta}$-dibromopropionylamide group are used for wool dyeing. They are normally applied to wool under pH 4.5 to 6.5 at $100^{\circ}C$. Although wool fabric can be dyed to obtain deep colour, high light and wet fastness, the dyeing processes need long dyeing time at high temperature, with salt addition, which inevitably causes environmental problems. Grafting is a modification method for textile where monomers are covalently bonded onto the polymer chain. It can be initiated by ozone, ${\gamma}$ rays, electron beams, plasma, corona discharge and UV irradiation. Coloration by UV-induced photografting exhibits several advantages such as fast reaction rate, energy saving, simple equipment, easy exploitation and environmentally friendliness. Also it requires much lower energy compared to the conventional dyeing and less damage to the substrate. In this study, a direct sequential UV-induced photografting onto wool fabrics was discussed. To understand the graft polymerization mechanism further, several characterization methods were used. Moreover, the effects of several principal factors on the graft photopolymerization were investigated. Furthermore, the colorfastness results were compared with conventional dyeing methods.

The distinguishing characteristic of the glow discharge is that chemical reaction induced by partially ionized gases are limited only to the substrate surface. Most studies have been done on the plasma etching and polymerization. The graft polymerization in vapour phase by cold plasma has been rarely investigated. In this study the system of tub3ar reaction chamber with capacitively coupled electrode of alternative current of 60 Hz was employed for the graft polymerization. The graft polymerization of Acylic Acid(AA) onto the poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was carried out by treatment of PET film and fabric by cold plasma (glow discharge of argon gas), followed by the supply of AA vapour. The graft yield was about 1 wt%. The surface property was determined by contact angle, the surface tension was evaluated by zisman’s plot and equation of surface tension mesurement. The results were as follows: 1. In order to obtain lower contact angle, it was effective to avoid the vicinity of electrodes for a setting position of substrate. 2. Contact angle affected on the monomer pressure and its duration of exposure to the acid vapour. 3. Polymer radical formation was influenced by the changes of the value of current density and plasma treatment time. 4. Total surface tension of plasma grafted PET film increased. With an increase in the carboxylic acid content, the dispersion force decreased, while, the polar force and hydrogen bonding force increased. 5. The contact angle decreased from $75^\circ$ to around $30^\circ$ by plasma grafting. There was no ageing effect on the contact angle after 4 months.

Surface modification of microfiltration and ultrafiltration membranes has been widely used to improve the protein adsorption resistance and permeation properties of hydrophobic membranes. Several surface modification methods for converting conventional membranes into low-protein-binding membranes are reviewed. They are categorized as either physical modification or chemical modification of the membrane surface. Physical modification of the membrane surface can be achieved by coating it with hydrophilic polymers, hydrophilic-hydrophobic copolymers, surfactants or proteins. Another method of physical modification is plasma treatment with gases. A hydrophilic membrane surface can be also generated during phase-inverted micro-separation during membrane formation, by blending hydrophilic or hydrophilic-hydrophobic polymers with a hydrophobic base membrane polymer. The most widely used method of chemical modification is surface grafting of a hydrophilic polymer by UV polymerization because it is the easiest method; the membranes are dipped into monomers with and without photo-initiators, then irradiated with UV. Plasma-induced polymerization of hydrophilic monomers on the surface is another popular method, and surface chemical reactions have also been developed by several researchers. Several important examples of physical and chemical modifications of membrane surfaces for low-protein-binding are summarized in this article.

수술에 의해 발생되는 침해성 통증이나 혈역학적 변화 및 내분비계의 반응은 마취 방법에 따라 약화되거나 조정될 수 있다. 본 연구는 심장수술시 체외순환 직전에 sodium thiopental을 투여한 경우 beta-endorphin치 변화에 미치는 영향을 관찰하고자 시행되었다. 관상동맥 우회술과 판막치환술을 위한 체외순환 환자 28명을 대상으로 하였다. Isoflurane, $N_2O$ 및 fentanyl 지속 정주(2 ug/kg/hr)에 의한 전신마취 하에서 thiopental군(14명)은 sodium thiopental 500 mg을, 대조군(14명)은 생리식염수 20 ml를 체외순환 직전에 투여하였다. 체외순환 직전과 체외순환 개시 후 30분 및 60분에 beta-endorphin치와 평균동맥압, 심박출량 및 전신혈관저항 등의 혈역학 지수를 각각 측정하였다. Beta-endorphin치가 대조군에서는 체외순환 개시 후 30분 및 60분에 유의하게 증가하였으나(P=0.006, P=0.004) thiopental군에서는 변화가 없었다. Beta-endorphin치의 변화는 양군 사이에 뚜렷한 차이가 이었다(F=8.7, P=0.001). 혈역학적 변화는 양군 사이 차이가 없었다. 따라서 체외순환 개시 직전에 투여된 thiopental은 체외순환중의 beta-endorphin치 변화를 예방할 수 있는 것으로 사료된다.
