Measurements by Luap et al. (2005) of elongational viscosity and birefringence of two nearly monodisperse polystyrene melts with molar masses $M_{w}$ of $206,000g{\cdot}mol^{-1}$ (PS206k) and $465,000g{\cdot}mol^{-1}$ (PS465k) respectively are reconsidered. At higher elongational stresses, the samples showed clearly deviations from the stress optical rule (SOR). The elongational viscosity data of both melts can be modeled quantitatively by the MSF model of Wagner et al. (2005), which is based on the assumption of a strain-dependent tube diameter and the interchain pressure term of Marrucci and Ianniruberto (2004). The only nonlinear parameter of the model, the tube diameter relaxation time, scales with $M_{w}^{2}$. In order to get agreement with the birefringence data, finite chain extensibility effects are taken into account by use of the $Pad\'{e}$ approximation of the inverse Langevin function, and the interchain pressure term is modified accordingly. Due to a selfregulating limitation of chain stretch by the FENE interchain pressure term, the transient elongational viscosity shows a small dependence on finite extensibility only, while the predicted steady-state elongational viscosity is not affected by non-Gaussian effects in agreement with experimental evidence. However, deviations from the SOR are described quantitatively by the MSF model by taking into account finite chain extensibility, and within the experimental window investigated, deviations from the SOR are predicted to be strain rate, temperature, and molar mass independent for the two nearly monodisperse polystyrene melts in good agreement with experimental data.

Current volume reduction methods for wasted expandable polystyrene (EPS) foam are summarized and compared each other. Wasted EPS foam has not been recycled effectively because of its large volume to weight ratio. This has prevented from its proper recycling because of high cost of transportation to recycling plant. Successful recycling of wasted EPS foam results directly from successful, i.e. economically and environmentally, volume reduction of wasted EPS foam. This paper deals with various methods for volume reduction methods of wasted EPS foam. Five typical methods of volume reduction are introduced and they are compared each other in terms of expected PS properties after volume reduction, cost effectiveness of each process, possible effects on environment caused by the volume reduction process, and possible recycled products. The methods include thermal, solvent, far infrared and mechanical compaction. Comparison in this paper is made mostly in qualitative manner. The focus in this study is concentrated on summarizing and comparing existing methods of volume reduction for wasted EPS foam.

비대칭 블록 공중합체와 단일고분자로 구성된 블렌드의 미세 도메인 구조와 결정화 거동을 소각 X-선 산란, 광학 현미경 및 DSC를 사용하여 조사하였다. 본 연구에서는 폴리(메틸 메타크릴레이트) 블록의 무게 분률이 0.53인 폴리(메틸 메타크릴레이트)-폴리스티렌 이종 블록 공중합체 (PMMA-b-PS)를 저분자량 폴리(비닐리덴 플루오라이드) (PVDF)와 혼합하였다. PVDF 함량 증가에 따라 블렌드 미세구조가 라멜라에서 실린더 구조로 전이하였으며, PVDF의 결정화는 결정화 이전에 형성된 미세구조의 배열을 교란시켜 질서도가 낮은 형태를 야기시켰다. 또한, PVDF 결정화 거동은 PMMA 블록과의 혼화성 및 미세 도메인에 의해 부가되는 공간적 제한에 큰 영향을 받았다.

최근 그래핀 연구와 더불어 2차원 구조의 나노소재에 대한 관심이 급증하면서 육각형의 질화붕소(hexagonal boron nitride; h-BN) 박막(nanosheet)이나 붕소 탄화질화물(boron caronitride; BCN) 박막과 같은 2차원 구조체에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그 중 BCN은 반금속(semimetal)인 흑연(graphite)과 절연체인 h-BN이 결합된 박막으로 원소의 구성 비율에 따라 전기적 특성을 제어할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 따라서 다양한 나노소자로의 응용을 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 폴리스틸렌(polystyrene, PS)과 보레인 암모니아(borane ammonia)를 고체 소스로 이용하여 열화학 기상증착법을 이용하여 BCN 박막를 SiO2 기판 위에 직접 합성하였다. SEM과 AFM 관측을 통해 합성된 BCN 박막을 확인하였으며, RMS roughness가 0.5~2.6 nm로 매우 낮은 것을 확인하였다. 합성과정에서 PS의 양을 조절하여 BCN 박막의 탄소의 밀도를 성공적으로 제어하였으며, 이에 따라 전기적인 특성이 제어되는 양상을 확인하였다. 또한 합성온도 변화에 따른 BCN 박막의 전기적인 특성이 제어되는 양상을 확인하였다. 추가적으로 같은 방법을 이용하여 BCN 박막을 Ni 위에서 합성하여 SiO2 기판위에 전사 하였다. 합성된 BCN 박막의 구조적 특징과 화학적 조성 및 결합 상태를 투과전자현미경(transmission electron microscopy), X-선 광전자 분광법(X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy)을 통해 조사하였다.

The supercapacitors with extraordinarily high capability for energy storage are attracting growing attention for their potential applications in portable electronic equipments, hybrid vehicles, cellular devices, and so on. The nanostructuring of the electrode surface can provide large surface area and consequently easy diffusion of ions in the capacitors. In addition, compared to two-dimensional nanostructures, the three-dimensional (3D) nano-architecture is expected to lead to significant enhancement of mechanical and electrical properties such as capacitance per unit area of the electrode. Polyaniline (PANi) is known as promising electrode material for supercapacitors due to its desirable properties such as high electro activity, high doping level and environmental stability. In this context, we fabricated well-ordered 3D PANi nanostructures on 3D polystyrene (PS) nanospheres which was arrayed by layer-by-layer stacking method. The height of the PANi nanostructures could be controlled by the number of PS layers stacked. 3D PANi hollow nanospheres were also fabricated by dissolving inner PS nanospheres, which resulted in further enhancement of the surface area and capacitance of the electrode.

Plastic optical fibers(POFs) composed of poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA), polystyrene (PS), or polycarbonate(PC) as a core materials, and of fluorinated polymer or PMMA as a cladding were fabricated and their properties were investigated in this study. The attenuation loss of PMAA core POF was about 1,700 dB/Km at 660 nm, the loss of PS core POF was 1,800 dB/Km at 560 nm, and the loss of PC core POF was 2,200 dB/Km at 780 nm. These attenuation losses of POFs prepared ill this study were higher than those of commerically available POFs. Compared to PMMA and PS core POFs, PC core POF has excellent characteristics, including high thermal stability, high flexibility, and high impact strength.

Various alkoxyamine initiators for nitroxide mediated radical polymerization (NMRP) were prepared in high yields by a simple substitution reaction of nitroxide anions with benzyl bromide. The required nitroxide anions were easily generated by treating either nitroxide free radicals or hydroxy amine with an alkali metal such as sodium or potassium in THF. This method is both practical and efficient, since the ionic conditions prevent other side reactions from occurring, such as the self-coupling or oligomerization reactions that are observed in the case of radical trapping conditions. To demonstrate the utility of the resulting alkoxyamine initiators, end- and telechelic-alkoxyamine PEG macroinitiators derived from the alkoxyamines were synthesized by a simple chemical modification, and used for the preparation of PEG-b-PS and PS-b-PEG-b-PS block copolymers by NMRP.

형광 현미경을 이용하여 4-클로로-7-니트로벤조퓨라잔이 표지된 폴리스티렌과 폴리부타디엔 블렌드 디옥틸프탈레이트 용액의 전단력하에서의 상평형 거동을 관찰하였다. 형광 현미경과 위상차 현미경을 동시에 사용하여 형광이미지가 실제 블렌드용액의 모폴로지와 같음을 알 수 있었다. 형광 현미경을 이용하여 각 도메인에서 형광의 세기를 측정함으로써 도메인상 (폴리스티렌 풍부상)과 연속 매트릭스상 (폴리부타디엔 풍부상)이 외부에서 가해준 전단력에 의하여 조성비가 변화하는 것을 관찰하였다. 이렇게 측정되어진 전단력의 변화에 따른 조성 차이의 변화로부터 상분리 곡선이 이동함을 알 수 있었다.

Block Copolymer lithography는 deep nano-scale device 제작을 위한 기존의 top-down방식의 photo-lithography를 대체할만한 기술로 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. polystyrene(PS)/poly-methyl methacrylate (PMMA)로 구성된 BCP의 nano-scale PS mask는 일반적인 플라즈마 공정에 쉽게 damage를 입는다. 중성빔 식각을 이용하여 식각 공정 중 발생하는 BCP의 degradation을 감소시키고, 비등방성 식각 profile을 얻을 수 있으며 sidewall roughness(SWR)와 sidewall angle(SWA)가 향상되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Monodisperse micron-sized polystyrene (PS) spheres were successfully obtained using a single stage soap-free emulsion method in aqueous media mixed with ethanol (co-solvent) containing NaCI as the electrolyte. The optimum conditions for preparing the monodisperse PS microspheres, using soap-free emulsion polymerization in a water/ethanol mixture with an electrolyte, were studied. The presence of the co-solvent and electrolyte controlled the particle dispersion stability during the polymerization. The microspheres formed using PS, with a weight-average diameter of $2.6{\mu}m$, coefficient of variation of 5.3% and zeta potential of -15.1 eV, were successfully obtained in the presence of 0.1 wt% NaCI, 10 wt% monomer, 0.1 wt% initiator and 95/5 (g/g) of a water/ethanol mixture reacted at $70^{\circ}C$ for 24 h.
