  • To prepare chemically stable asymmetric microporous membranes with a hydrophilic surface, which would be expected to have better antifouling properties, poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) blend membranes were prepared by the phase inversion process. PVDF mixture solutions in N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) blended with several polar potential ionic polymers such as polyacrylonitrile (PAN), poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) and poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (NIPAM) were used for the formation of the PVDF blend membranes. They were then characterized with several analytical methods such as FESEM, FTIR, contact angle measurement, pore size distribution and permeability measurement. Regardless of different polar polymers blended, they all showed a finger-like structure with more hydrophilic surface than the pristine PVDF membrane. For all the PVDF blend membrane, due to the polar potential ionic polymers used, the flux of those was improved. Especially the PVDF blend membrane with NIPAM showed the highest flux among the membranes prepared. Also antifouling property of the PVDF membrane was improved by the use of the polar polymers.

  • In this work, porous carbon based electrodes are prepared by carbonization using poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)/carbon nanotube (CNT) composites to further increase the specific capacitance for supercapacitors. Electrode materials investigate the aspects of specific capacitance, pore size distribution and surface area: influence of carbonization temperatures of PVDF/CNT composites. The electrochemical properties are investigated by cyclic voltammetry, impedance spectra, and galvanostatic charge-discharge performance with in $TEABF_4$ (tetraethylammonium tetrafluoroborate)/acetonitrile as non-aqueous electrolyte. From the results, the highest value of specific capacitance of ~101 $F{\cdot}g^{-1}$ is obtained for the samples carbonized at $600^{\circ}C$. Furthermore, pore size of samples control be low 7 nm through carbonization process. It is suggested that micropores significantly contribute to the specific capacitance, resulting from improved charge transfer.

  • The variable optical attenuator based on side polished fiber technique was experimentally demonstrated. Various combination mixtures of poly(vinylidene fluoride) and poly(methyl methacrylate) have been used as the overlay waveguide materials for the variable optical attenuator application. A controllable amount of optical power can be extracted via evanescent coupling by changing the temperature of the polymer mixture, thereby changing its refractive index. The VOA under test provides a maximum attenuation of 30 ㏈ and an insertion loss of 0.1 ㏈.

  • 폴리비닐리덴플루오라이드 바이모프 외팔보(poly(vinylidene fluoride) bimorph cantilever beam)의 진동을 기술하는 수학적 모형을 세우고 실험으로 그모형의 타당성을 고 찰하였다. 여러 전압의 교류전류에 대해 여러 길이의 외팔보의 주파수응답을 측정하였고 여 러 전압의 직류전류에 대해 여러 길이의 외팔보의 처짐을 측정하였다. 실험으로부터 이 외 팔보의 진동은 점성감쇠보다는 구조감쇠로 기술하는 것이 더 타덩하고 외팔보가 전기장에 대해 damping factor가 일정해야 하나 각각의 normal mode에 대해 다른 damping factor로 수정하여 계산한이론치가 실험과 더 일치하였다. 공명주파수의 공명진폭을 예측할수 있고 넓은 입력주파수 영역에 대한 외팔보의 응답을 기술 할수 있으며 진동하는 외팔보는 모든위 치에서의 진폭을 기술할수 있다는 점에서 여기서의 모형은 Toda와 Smits의 모형들보다 우 수하다고 볼수 있다.

  • The effect of high-temperature spinning and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) additive on poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) hollow fiber membranes was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction measurement, and scanning electron microscopy, together with the corresponding microfiltration performances such as water flux, rejection rate, and elongational strength. Using high-temperature spinning, porous hollow fiber membranes with particulate morphology were prepared through PVDF crystallization. The particulate structure of the membranes was further modified by the addition of miscible PVP with PVDF. Due to these effects, the rejection rate and strength of the fibers were increased at the expense of reduced water flux and mean pore size, which indicates that high-temperature spinning and PVP addition are vary effective to control the morphology of PVDF hollow fiber membranes for microfiltration.

  • The purpose of this study is to research and develop solid polymer electrolyte(SPE) for all-stolid-state lithium battery. We investigated conductivity, electrochemical properites and impedence spectroscopy of poly(ethylene oxide)[PEO]/poly(vinylidene fluoride)[PVOF] blend electrolytes and charge/discharge cycling of LiCoO$_2$/SPE/Li cell. By adding PVDF and plasticizer to PEO-LICIO$_4$electrolyte, its condustivity was higher than that of PEO-LiCIO$_4$electrolyte. Also PEO$_4$PVDF$_4$LiClO$_4$PC$_{5}$EC$_{5}$ remains stable up to 4.4V vs Li/Li. The discharge capacity of the LiCoO$_2$composite cathode was 92mAh/g based on LiCoO$_2$.EX>.

  • The geometries and energies of the isomers in alkyne complexes MCl(PH3)2(η2-C2H2), M=Rh and Ir, are theoretically investigated using ab initio methods at the Hartree-Fock and up to MP4 level of theory and relativistic effective core potentials for Rh and Ir metals. The optimized structures of Rh complexes, 1-3 at MP2/ECP1 level are in good agreement with the related experimental data. The binding energies of C2H2 to d8-metal fragments are computed to be ∼55 kcal/mol. The vinylidene complexes for Rh and Ir metals are calculated to be much lower in energy than the alkyne complexes. The alkyne-vinylidene rearrangement is possible to proceed exothermically through the intermediate hydrido-alkynyl complexes, 2 or 9. Detailed comparison is given about the geometries and relative energies on Rh and Ir isomers at the various level ab initio calculations with orbital analysis.
