Graft polymerization of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate(HEMA) and styrene, from both their binary and unitary systems, onto polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE) film was investigated by means of the simultaneous ${\gamma}-ray$ induced method. The effect of various parameters such as monomer concentration, dose rate, absorbed dose, HEMA/styrene feed ratios and the type of diluent on the extent of grafting in unitary and binary systems was studied. It was observed that when unitary HEMA was used for grafting, the grafting extent was very slight, whereas when comonomers were used, a good grafting yield could be obtained. Inclusion of sulfuric acid in the monomer solution resulted in enhanced grafting yields.

In this study, we fabricated Plasma polymerized styrene thin films which used a new capacitive type apparatus. RE Power supply (13.56 MHz) was used and styrene monomer was adopted. After the preparation of thin films the molecular structure of Plasma polymerized styrene films was analyzed by some analyses as IR, FT-IR, Gas chromatography and so on.

In preparing void latex particles by emulsion polymerization, the weight mean particle size of which is ranged $0.3{\mu}m{\sim}1.5{\mu}m$, reaction parameters were investigated in order to elucidate their effects on the size distribution and the solid content of emulsion polymer. Experimental results showed that the weight mean particle size of hydrophillic core polymer was reduced as the concentration of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDS) increased. The size of void polymethyl-methacrylate-polystyrene composite latex particles became larger as the concentration of styrene monomer and the sodium persulfate increased. However, the size of void latex particles was reduced as the feeding rate of acrylic acid increased. The solid content of emulsion polymer was strongly dependent on the addition of stylene monomer. By increasing the concentration of styrene monomer the solid content of emulsion polymer increased linearly.

The aim of this study was to develop the recycling methode of alloyed recycling plastics. The compatibilizers have been used to improve the physical properties of recycling plastics. Eethylene propylene rubber(EPR), ethylene propylene diene monomer(EPDM), styrene ethylene butylene styrene block copolymer(SEBS), maleic anhydride modified styrene ethylene butylene styrene block copolymer(SEBS-MA) and styrene butadiene styrene block copolymer(SBS) were singled out as compatibilizers. In this study, the physical properties such as impact and tensile strength have improved above 20% by using the compatibilizers.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the effect of the emulsifier ratio on the properties of the polymer cement mortars based on styrene-butyl acrylate (S/BA) latexes, and to obtain necessary basic data to develop appropriate latexes for cement modifiers. The polymer dispersions for cement modifiers was synthesized using styrene and butyl acrylate. Polymer cement mortars based on S/BA latexes were prepared with various monomer and emulsifier ratios, and their water-cement ratio, air content, flexural and compressive strengths, water absorption and chloride ion penetration were tested. From the test results, the maximum flexural and compressive strengths of polymer cement mortars based on S/BA latexes were obtained at a bound styrene content of 60% and an emulsifier ratio of 6%. Also, the water absorption and chloride ion penetration depth are greatly affected by the polymer-cement ratio rather than the bound styrene and emulsifier content. Accordingly, it is judged that S/BA latexes can be used place of the conventional polymer dispersions of cement modifier.

The thin insulator films for organic memory device were made by the plasma polymerization method using the styrene monomer which was not the wet process but the dry process. For the formation of stable plasma, we make an effort for controlling the monomer with bubbler and circulator system. The thickness of plasma polymerized styrene insulator layer was 430 nm, the thickness of the Au memory layer was 7 nm thickness of plasma polymerized styrene tunneling layer was 30, 60 nm, the thickness of pentacene active layer was 40 nm, the thickness of source and drain electrodes were 50 nm. The I-V characteristics of fabricated memory device got the hysteresis voltage of 45 V at 40/-40 V double sweep measuring conditions. If it compared with the results of previous paper which was the organic memory with the plasma polymerized MMA insulation thin film, this result was greater than 18 V, the improving ratio is 60%. From the paper, styrene indicated a good charge trapping characteristics better than MMA. In the future, we expect to make the organic memory device with plasma polymerized styrene as the memory thin film.

The inorganic-organic composite particles with core-shell structure were polymerized by using styrene and potassium persulfate (KPS) as a shell monomer and an initiator, respectively. We studied the effect of surfactants on the core-shell structure of silicone dioxide/styrene composite particles polymerized in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS), polyoxyethylene alkylether sulfate (EU-S133D), and at none surfactant condition. We found that $SiO_2$ core / polystyrene(PS) shell structure was formed when polymerization of styrene was conducted on the surface of $SiO_2$ particles, and the concentration SDS and EU-Sl33D was $8.34{\times}10^{-2}mole/L$. The core-shell structure was confirmed by measuring the thermal decomposition of the polymer composite using thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), and the morphology of the composite particles was characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM).

Stable polyaniline-dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid(PANI-DBSA) fully dissolved in toluene was obtained by a direct one-step emulsion polymerization technique. By using the proper molar ratio of APS/aniline monomer and DBSA/aniline monomer, the highest conductivity(7 S/cm) of PANI was obtained. The UV-Vis absorption spectrum of PANI confirmed PANI is emeraldine salt form. PANI/styrene polymers (polystyrene and styrene-butadiene copolymer) blends were prepared by mixing PANI solution with polymers in toluene. These blends exhibited the conductivity of 10$\^$-4/-10$\^$-3/ S/cm at 1 wt. % of PANI content. The mechanical property of conducting blend was decreased and TGA thermograms of conducting blends were similar to that of PANI. It had been checked that the flatness of coating layers of conducting blends decreased with increasing conducting components. It was also found that the morphology of blends was setting closer to that of PANI at higher conducting component contents.

To improve the quality of coated paper, the continuous research to the coating components and development of alternative latices is required. Recently, amphoteric latex is getting a great concern due to their changable properties of surface charge through controlling pH and some methods have been tried to prepare amphoteric latices. This study was carried out to synthesize amphoteric latex using seeding polymerization method with low concentration emulsifier. Styrene was used as a main monomer in addition to acrylonitrile for a hydrophilic comonomer. acrylic acid for a anionic comonomer and N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate for a cationic comonomer. Particle size and viscosity of latex were greatly affected by addition of acrylic acid and ammonium persulfate as an initiator. Negative charge of latex in alkali condition was changed to zero to positive charge in around pH 4.

Lactose substituted styrene monomer, N-(p-vinylbenzyl)-D-lactonamide(VLA) was prepared by coupling the lactose lactone with p-vinylbenzylamine. The carboxyl group of biotin was activated with N-hydroxysuccinimide in the presence of N, N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. Subsquently, biotin substituted styrene monomer, N-(p-vinylbenzyl)-biotinamide(VBA) was prepared by amidation of the activated biotin with p-vinylbenzylamine. Poly(vinylbenzylactonamide-co-vinylbenzylbiotinamide), p(VLA-co-VBA) were synthesized through radical polymerization from the synthetic monomers(VLA-VBA) by using various mole ratio. The percentages of yield were 67~71%. The copolymers were found amphlphilic which had hydrophilic lactose, hydrophobic vinylbenzyl and biotin site within the structure. IR and $^{13}C-NMR$ analysis on the monomers and copolymer were carried out.
