[ $TiO_2-V_2O_5$ ] sol was prepared using sol-gel method. Sol changed to gel with hydrolysis and polymerization. DTA properties of gel powder had endothermic reaction due to evaporation of propanol about $80^{\circ}C$, had exothermic reaction due to combustion of propanol about $230^{\circ}C$ and had exothermic reaction due to combustion of alkyl group about $350^{\circ}C$. Crystalline properties of gel powder retained amorphous phase at $50^{\circ}C$, retained anatase phase from $400^{\circ}C\;to\;600^{\circ}C$ and had all rutile phase over $700^{\circ}C$ at 0.01mole $V_2O_5$ additive. The capacitance of thin films increased with increasing heat treatment temperature and thin films had best properties at $700^{\circ}C$. The capacitance of thin films increased a lot with decreasing measurement frequency.

Film properties of monodispersed model composite latexes with particle size of 190 nm, which consist of n-butyl acrylate as a soft phase monomer and methyl methacrylate as a hard phase monomer with different morphology was examined. Five different types of model latexes were used in this study such as random copolymer particle, soft-core/hard-shell particle, hard-core/soft-shell particle, gradient type particle, and mixed type particle. Tensile strength and tensile elongation at break of final films were evaluated. Those properties can be interpreted in terms of PBA/PMMA phase ratio and their morphology. The interfacial adhesion strength was also evaluated using $180^{\circ}$ peel strength measurement and cross hatch cutting test.

A correlative analysis has been carried out to predict the average particle size of rubber dispersed phase In high impact polystyrene manufactured by bulk polymerization. To do the correlation, a mechanistic model suggested previously by the author was used for describing the size of stabilizing particles agitated under the turbulent viscous shear subranges in a prepolymerization reactor, where the rubber particles were assumed to be formed at the time of phase inversion in the reactor. Viscosities required for the model were postulated to describe the overall behavior of butadiene rubber and polystyrene mixture along the wide range of conversion. The good agreement between the model and the experimental data from a plant was quite satisfactory for the prediction of the average rubber particle size of high impact polystyrene.

Polymer dispersed liquid crystal(PDLC) composite films were made by polymerization induced phase separation method using UV-curing to investigate the effect of fabrication conditions, such as photoinitiator concentration, film thickness, polymerization temperature, and electric field during polymerization, etc., on the electro-optic properties. As the amount of photoinitiator increased, the driving voltage of PDLC device increased due to the increase of small-size liquid crystal phases. This was considered as the results from the increased interfacial area between liquid crystal (LC) and polymer matrix, since LC molecules at the interfacial regions were relatively difficult to response for the applied electric field. When the higher molecular weight oligomer (PTDA-1000) was used as matrix, the initial transmittance was observed to be relatively higher than that for the lower molecular weight oligomer (PTDA-250). Saturation transmittance for PTDA-1000 was observed at relatively lower voltage than that for PTDA-250, of which transmittance was not saturated even at 60 V. As polymerization temperature increased, the initial transmittance of resulting PDLC film increased due to the larger LC droplets formation and the more matched refractive index between LC and matrix than those cases for the lower polymerization temperature. Though driving voltage decreased for the thinner film, it was considered that optimum thickness of the film should be maintained to get some practical contrast, which is the ratio of off- and on-state transmittance. Furthermore, electro-optic properties such as initial transmittance, driving voltage, and response time were observed to be considerably affected by application of external field during polymerization.

N-vinyl caprolactam (NVCL), a kind of N-vinyl amide monomer, must be dissolved in continuous phase ($scCO_2$) for dispersion polymerization in supercritical carbon dioxide. Phase behavior of $CO_2$+NVCL is very important and necessary for determining initial polymerization condition and for monomer extraction from final polymer. There is the limitation of experimental method for obtaining pure properties of the monomer because of the possibility of polymerization. And N-methyl caprolactam (NMCL) is the useful solvent for the gas treating process. In the viewpoint of molecular thermodynamics, NVCL and NMCL have same functional group i.e. ${\varepsilon}$-caprolactam. In the case of NVCL, hydrogen of amide group is substituted with vinyl group and for NMCL, hydrogen of amide group is substituted with methyl group. We suggested modified group contribution method for this ${\varepsilon}$-caprolactam derivatives. This new group contribution parameter was applied to correlate $CO_2$ + N-vinyl caprolactam or N-methyl caprolactam system.

Solid and liquid phase peroxidases were extracted from Chinese cabbage roots by using commercial juicer in order to use peroxidases from agricultural waste for industrial applications. Since peroxidases are distributed into 66% in liquid (juice) and 34% in solid phase (pulp), enzymes from both phases were applied to investigate the enzymatic removal of phenol from waste water. After contacting 150 ppm Phenol solution with liquid phase enzyme (1,800 unit/$\ell$) for 3 hours in a batch stirred reactor, 96% of phenol could be removed through polymerization and precipitation. Also, phenol could be removed from initial 120ppm to 5ppm by applying solid phase enzyme in an air lift reactor ($600 unit/\ell$). Almost equivalent efficiencies of phenol removal were observed between two systems, even though only one third of the enzymes in batch stirred reactor was applied in airlift reactor. The possible reason for this phenomenon is because peroxidases exist as immobilized forms in solid phase.

UV-curable resins have adventages of quick set, space saving, clean environment, and efficient use of energy. The polymerization induced phase separation has been studied to solve the problem in UV-curing of thick films and develop the new functional materials. On the exposure to UV irradiation, the dynamic elasticity properties were mesured for mixtures of alkyd resin and UV-cruable monomers which have different molecular structures and molecular weights. The curing rate increases with increasing temperature and UV intensity. In addition, The gel point is strongly influenced by temperature and UV intensity

Surface sizing is one of the important process to the paper making. Surface sizing had an effect on penetration of oils, physical propertiesm water resistance for the paper. This study was carried out for the purpose of improving printability with surface sizing of domestic newspaper. The samples were prepared by means of TAPPI method(TAPPI 205 om~88), and were wested by IGT printability tester. The results of this study showed that the set-off was reduced on the surface sized with oxidized starch.

Polymerization induced diffusion has been successfully applied to create new display components. Based on this principle a new technique to produce polymer covered liquid crystal layers on a single substrate, called photo-enforced stratification, allows cost-effective production of ultra-thin LCDs. The two-step photopolymerization-induced phase separation of a liquid crystal and a polymer precursor can be performed on a variety of substrates and provides freedom in display design.
