A methacrylate copolymer based on isobornyl methacrylate (IBMA) and methyl methacrylate (MMA) was synthesized in an aqueous suspension via free-radical polymerization. The potential of this copolymer as a heat-resistant optical polymer is also discussed. 1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl peroxy-2-ethyl hexanoate and n-octyl mercaptan were used as the initiator and chain transfer agents, respectively. The effect of IBMA on the properties of the copolymer was investigated. The composition of the copolymer was analyzed using $^1H-NMR$, and the heat resistance by measuring the glass transition temperature, which exhibited a linear dependency on the IBMA content in the copolymer. Variation of the chain transfer content used in the synthesis step was effective for the optimization of the copolymer for practical use.

The copolymerization of ethylene and norbornene was carried out with ansa-metallocene and modified methylaluminoxane (MMAO) cocatalyst. The copolymerization behavior was changed with the structure of metallocene catalysts. In addition the catalyst activity was dependent on the structure of MMAO, i.e.. MMAO-4 which contains less i-butyl group compared to MMAO-3A exhibited higher catalyst activity than MMAO-3A. The glass transition temperature and the composition of the produced copolymer were not affected by MMAO type.

A highly transparent interfacial layer (HTIL) to enhance the performance of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) was prepared via a polymer-assisted (PA) approach. Poly(vinyl chloride)-graft-poly(oxyethylene methacrylate) (PVC-g-POEM) was synthesized via atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and was used as a sacrificial template. The PVC-g-POEM graft copolymer induced partial coordination of a hydrophilic titanium isopropoxide (TTIP) sol-gel solution with the POEM domain, resulting in microphase separation, and in turn, the generation of mesopores upon calcination. These phenomena were confirmed using Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, UV-visible light transmittance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The DSSCs incorporating HTIL60/20 (consisting of a top layer with a pore size of 60 nm and a bottom layer with a pore size of 20 nm) exhibited the best overall conversion efficiency (6.36%) among the tested samples, which was 25.9% higher than that of a conventional blocking layer (BL). DSSC was further characterized using the Nyquist plot and incident-photon to electron conversion efficiency (IPCE) spectra.

It has been shown that transparent microemulsion gels of flexibly adjustable viscosity containing less than 10％ w/w surfactants can be obtained just by cooling down through a new 1-step preparation procedure (via 4 different in-situ colloidal systems) using PIT-technology with a range of emulsifiers, co-emulsifiers and lipids. They can be used for a wide scope of applications. Specific examples have been given with antiperspirant formulas that proof the stability of these thickened microemulsions even with high content of electrolytes and low pH. We propose that the structure of these microemulsion gels can be described by cross-linking of nano-fine oil droplets via an ABA-triblock copolymer. A new generation of transparent antiperspirant roll-ons with significantly improved skin tolerance can now be formulated as an attractive alternative to alcohol-based products.

By condensing two different functional monomers, highly fluorescent aromatic polymers were prepared to produce a conjugated- conjugated spacer-type copolymer or conjugated-non-conjugated spacer-type copolymer. As synthesized polymers were soluble in an organic solvent and showed significantly enhanced optical properties compared to its monomer. Variation in the monomer composition afforded polymers having multifunctionaility such as photochromic-fluorescent polymers. Transparent thin films of the polymer as a solid medium were prepared using spin coating method and fabricated as a photoswitch, which showed photo-induced conductivity switching properties depending on the core monomeric unit in the polymers.

본 연구에서는 투명 보호필름에 적용할 수 있는 내구성과 연신성이 우수한(MMA-co-GMA-co-AA) 형의 아크릴레이트 공중합체를 합성하였으며 MMA와 AA 간의 중합효율을 높이기 위하여 GMA를 매개제로 선택하였다. GMA의 함량이 증가할수록 아크릴레이트 공중합체의 분자량과 내구성은 개선되었으나 연신성은 떨어졌고 AA의 함량이 증가할수록 공중합체의 분자량과 내구성은 낮아졌으나 반대로 연신성은 개선되었다. MMA의 함량이 30 g인 조건에서, 아크릴레이트 공중합체 막의 내구성과 연신성을 개선할 수 있는 GMA/MMA의 최적 몰 비는 1.6, AA/GMA의 최적 몰비는 1.8이였으며 공중합체의 평균분자량과 Tg는 각각 13,300 g/mol, 136.5 $^{\circ}C$였다. 아크릴레이트 공중합체를 1.4 g/$m^2$ 도포된 필름의 표면경도는 1 H였으며 5, 15% 연신조건에서 연신성이 모두 양호하였다. 도포량을 4.1-4.6 g/$m^2$으로 높으면 표면경도는 3 H로 개선되었다.

Mesoporous silica films with three different pore sizes were prepared by using cationic surfactant, non-ionic surfactant, or triblock copolymer as structure directing agents with tetramethylorthosilicate as silica source in order to control the pore size and wall thickness. They were synthesized by an evaporation-induced self-assembly process and spin-coated on Si wafer. Mesoporous silica films with three different pore sizes of 2.9, 4.6, and 6.6 nm and wall thickness ranging from $\sim$1 to $\sim$3 nm were prepared by using three different surfactants. These materials were optically transparent mesoporous silica films and crack free when thickness was less than 1 m m. The photoluminescence spectra found in the visible range were peaked at higher energy for smaller pore and thinner wall sized materials, consistent with the quantum confinement effect within the nano-sized walls of the silica pores.

4,4'-(Hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphthalic anhydride (6FDA) 와 1,3-bis (3-aminophenoxy) benzene(BAPB)의 조성에 2,2-bis [4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl] hexafluoropropane (BAPP)를 다양한 몰 비에 따른 폴리이미드(PI) 공중합체를 합성하였다. PI 공중합체 필름들은 여러 열처리 과정을 통하여 용액 캐스팅 (solution casting)된 폴리아믹산(PAA)으로부터 얻었다. 퓨리에 변환 적외선 분광기(FT-IR), 넓은 각 X-선 회절(XRD), 전계 방사형 주사 전자 현미경(FE-SEM) 시차 주사 열량계(DSC)와 열 중량 분석기(TGA), 만능 인장 시험기 (UTM) 그리고 자외선-가시광선 흡광도기 (UV-Vis. spectrometer) 등을 사용하여 PI 공중합체 필름의 열적 기계적 성질, 모폴로지 및 광학 투명도를 측정하였다. PI 공중합체 필름의 유리전이온도 및 최종 강도와 초기 탄성률은 BAPP의 몰 비가 증가할수록 증가하였으나, 초기분해온도는 BAPP의 몰 비 증가에 무관하게 일정하였다. BAPP가 charge transfer complex를 형성하는 이유로 BAPP 농도가 증가함에 따라 PI 공중합체 필름의 투명도는 약간씩 감소하였다.

ZnO is one of the most attractive transparent conductive oxide (TCO) films because of low toxicity, a wide band gap material and relatively low cost. However, the electrical conductivity of un-doped ZnO is too high to use it as TCO films in practical application. To improve electrical properties of undoped ZnO, transition metal (TM) doped ZnO films such as Al doped ZnO or Ti doped ZnO have been extensively studied. Here, we prepared Ti doped ZnO thin films by atomic layer deposition (ALD) for the application of TCO films. ALD was used to prepare Ti-doped ZnO thin films due to its inherent merits such as large area uniformity, precise composition control in multicomponent thin films, and digital thickness controllability. Also, we demonstrated that ALD method can be utilized for fabricating highly ordered freestanding nanostructures of Ti-doped ZnO thin films by combining with BCP templates, which can potentially used in the photovoltaic applications.

대표적인 범용 플라스틱인 폴리스티렌의 장점인 투명성을 유지하면서 단점인 낮은 내충격성을 보완하고자 투명한 아크릴레이트계 고분자의 단량체인 butyl acrylate(BA)와 methyl methacrylate(MMA)를 styrene(SM) 단량체와 현탁중합으로 중합하여 3원 공중합체를 제조하였다. SM/BA 2원 공중합체와 SM/BA/MMA 3원 공중합체를 제조하여 각각의 물성을 비교하였다. 또한 가장 충격강도가 좋은 3원 공중합체에 가교제인 dicumyl peroxide(DCP)의 함량을 변화시키면서 가교반응시켰다. 단량체의 중합조성비 및 가교제의 함량이 공중합체의 열적, 기계적 물성과 광학적 특성에 미치는 영향에 대해 확인하였다. 결론적으로 butyl acrylate의 함량이 증가할수록 충격강도는 높아지지만 SM/BA 2원 공중합체는 특정 조성에서 불투명하게 된다. 하지만, SM/BA/MMA 3원 공중합체는 모든 조성에서 투명하면서 비교적 높은 기계적 물성을 나타내었다. 또한 DCP의 함량이 증가할수록 기계적 물성을 높일 수 있었으나 투명성은 점차 낮아졌다.
