The nanoimprint lithography technology makes higher density of semiconductor device and larger capacity of storage media. In this technology the induced damage while detaching polymer pattern from mold should be minimized. In order to analyze the problem, the basic knowledge of adhesion between the polymer and the mold is required. In this study a contact experiment of polyisobutylene specimen with spherical steel tip and polyisobutylene bead tip was conducted using nano indenter. During the contact experiment with various loading rate under load control the contact behavior of viscoelastic material was measured, i.e., the load and displacement between the tip and the specimen were measured. The data was analyzed by HBK model to obtain the stress intensity factor of contact edge and the contact radius as a function of time. Also the adhesion energies between steel/polyisobutylene and polyisobutylene/polyisobutylene were obtained employing the analysis of the crack of viscoelastic material by Schapery.

For the prevention of the aggregation during microencapsulation, the effects and role of polyisobutylene(PIB), as a protective colloid, were studied. The effects of sealant treatment on the microencapsulation were studied. Methyldopa was microencapsulated with ethylcellulose (EC) by polymer deposition from cyclohexane by temperature change using PIB. The EC-microencapsulated methyldopa was sealed with spermaceti. The dissolution of methyldopa was influenced by the drug to wall ratio. When PIB was used, low aggregation of microcapsules occurred and the surface was smooth with a few pores. Treatment of microcapsules with spermaceti retarded the release of methyldopa, the release being affected by the percentage of sealant used and the particle size of the product.

Carbon dioxide was absorbed into water-in-oil (w/o) emulsion composed of aqueous 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) droplets as a dispersed phase and benzene solutions of polybutene and polyisobutylene as a continuous phase in a flat-stirred vessel to investigate the effect of non-Newtonian rheological behavior on the rate of chemical absorption of $CO_2$, where the reaction between $CO_2$ and AMP in the aqueous phase was assumed to be a pseudo-first-order reaction. It was expressed that PIB with elastic property made the rate of chemical absorption of $CO_2$ accelerated by comparison of mass transfer coefficient of $CO_2$ in the non-Newtonian liquid with that in the Newtonian liquid.

Mid-range vinylidene content polyisobutylenes were prepared by using a Lewis acid catalyst. The best results were obtained when a complex catalyst composed of n-propanol as a cocatalyst and $BF_3$ as a main catalyst was used at the reaction temperature of -8 to $5^{\circ}C$ under a pressure of $2.5kg/cm^2$. The number average molecular weight ($M_n$) and viscosity of the polyisobutylenes were 500~1,000 g/mol and 20~210 cSt (at $100^{\circ}C$), respectively. The vinylidene content was 40~70% and easily varied by adjusting the reaction temperature.

Because omeprazole(OMP) is very unstable in aqueous condition, $OMP-{\beta}-CD$, the inclusion complex of OMP and ${\beta}-cyclodextrin({\beta}-CD)$ was made and physicochemical properties of it were compared with those of OMP. Skin permeability of OMP and $OMP-{\beta}-CD$ in propylene glycol vehicle and the reciprocal action of ${\beta}-CD$ with various enhancers were examined through hairless mouse. Adhesive patches were prepared with polyisobutylene and the skin permeability and stability of OMP were investigated. The inclusion complex showed higher solubility and lower partition coefficient than OMP itself. DMSO, 1-methyl 2-pyrrolidone and sodium cholate had an enhancing effect. However ethanol and polysorbate 80 hardly showed the enhancing effect of OMP. When sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium cholate as enhancer were added in patch, the former case showed higher permeability of OMP.

The purpose of this study is to prepare the adhesive type patch containing flurbiprofen, and to demonstrate the feasibility of flurbiprofen administration through the intact skin using adhesive type patch preparation. For this purpose, two pressure sensitive adhesives, Polyisobutylene(PIB) and $Gelva^{\circledR}737$, were selected from the chemical grade of polymers, and the adhesive type patches of flurbiprofen were prepared. The release rate of flurbiprofen from the PIB-based adhesive patch was higher than that from $Gelva^{\circledR}737$ based adhesive patch. The release rate of flurbiprofen from the PIB-based A-type patch with 1.0mm, 1.5mm or 2.0mm thicknesses followed the first order kinetics. In the skin permeation study, using male hairless mouse skin, a monophasic skin permeation profile was observed with 1% flurbiprofen loading dose. The inclusion of palmitic acid or SLS(0.25~0.5%) as an enhancer produced a remarkable enhancement in the skin permeation rate of flurbiprofen, and the percentile ratio of drug and enhancer appeared to be important for the effective enhancement. In the in vivo percutaneous absorption study, the plasma concentration of the optimal formulation was significantly (p<0.01) higher than that of the conventional cataplasma ($Bifen^{\circledR}$). These studies demonstrate a good feasibility of flurbiprofen administration through the intact skin using a transdermal patch, and show a possibility of the development of flurbiprofen patches.

The purpose of this study is to prepare the controlled release adhesive patch containing naproxen. Pressuresensitive adhesive (PSA)-type patch was fabricated by casting of polyisobutylene (PIE.) and mineral oil in toluene. Membrane-controlled release (MCR)-type patch was prepared by the attachment of the controlled release membrane on the PSAtype patch. The membrane was mainly composed of Eudragit, polyethylene glycol(PEG) and glycerin. The drug release profile and skin permeation test with various patches were evaluated in vitro. The release of naproxen from PIE-based PSAtype patch with various loading doses fitted Higuchi's diffusion equation. However, the permeation of naproxen through hairless mouse skin from PSA-type patch followed zero-order kinetics. In MCR-type patch, thickness of controlled release membrane affected on the drug release rate highly. In the composition of membrane, the release rate was decreased as the ratio of Eudragit increased. The drug release from the MCR-type patch followed zero order kinetics. The permeation of naproxen through hairless mouse skin from MCR-type patch showed lag time for the intial release period and didn't fit the zero-order kinetics

To estimatc mutual diffusion coefficient for the analysis of mass transfer phenomena in polymer/solvent system, two models are proposed and the equations are derived. The estimates of mutual diffusion coefficients are obtained by two models suggested in this work and compared with and experimental data and Vrentas-Duda's. Vrentas-Duda's self diffusion coefficient was used for the mutual diffusion coefficient. Derivative of chemical potential on solvent was derived and used using original UNIFAC-FV and modified UNIFAC-FV. However, Vrentas-Duda's equation for mutual diffusion coefficient contains Flory-Huggins parameter x. For the derivative of chemical potential term, Vrentas-Duda assumed that parameter x was constant and independent of temperatures and concentrations The assumption is one of shortcoming in vrentas-Duda's mutual diffusion coefficient. New methods proposed in this work do not have such assumptions and simplifications. For the solvent of cyclohexane, n-pentane, and n-hexane in PIB(polyisolbutylene) and PMS-BR (poly(p-methylstyrene-co-isobutylene), new methods well correlate the experimental data at various temperatures and concentrations, and predicted the experimental data much better than Vrentas-Duda's for the PIB/toluene system. It is shown that new methods are excellent tools for correlating mutual diffusion coefficient data in polymer/solvent system over wide ranges of temperature and concentration without any assumptions or simplifications.

In this study, we prepared curdlan composite films and determined their properties in order to select the most appropriate setting methods, moisture barrier materials, and viscoelasticity enhancing materials. High set curdlan films with polyethylene glycol (PEG) showed higher tensile strength and moisture barrier properties than low set films. Films with oleic acid as a moisture barrier material had greater tensile strength, elongation and moisture barrier properties than films with acetylated monoglyceride (AMG). Lastly, films using polyisobutylene (PIB) as a viscoelasticity enhancing material showed higher elongation than films with polybutene (PB).
