Water soluble adhesive was polymerized from butyl acrylate (BA), methyl methacrylate (MMA) and one of various functional monomers such as acrylic acid (AA), 2-hydroxylethyl methacrylate (2-HEMA), glycidyl methacrylic acid (GMA) and acrylamide (AAm). The amount of the functional monomers was 1$\sim$5 wt%/monomer. In order to improve the adhesive power, a substrate was treated using atmospheric flat plasma method. The adhesive power was improved by the addition of the functional monomers with an order of AA> 2-HEMA> GMA> AAm. The holding power of the adhesives, which is related with the thermal properties of the adhesives, increased with the amount of the functional monomers. The effectiveness in improving the holding power has an order of AA > AAm > GMA > 2-HEMA. By treating a substrate with atmospheric flat plasma method, the adhesives containing each of AA, 2-HEMA, GMA and AAm showed the increases of the final adhesion strength by 9.1, 9.4, 9.4, and 1.8%, respectively. In conclusion, the mechanical properties such as adhesive power and holding power could be controlled by introducing.

Nylon 6 grafted with polyacrylamide(PAAm) was synthesized by a dispersion polymerization method at 6$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours, and a cresol-soluble graft polymer(CSGP) and water-dispersable graft polymer (WI)GP) were separated. Infra-red(IR) spectrum analysis, differential scanning calorimetery(DSC), thermogravimetery(TG), and X-ray diffraction analysis were carried out to research their structural characteristics.

Two sheets of high strength cement paste using ordinary Portland cement and water soluble polymer (polyacrylamide) were made by kneading with a twin roll mill. A carbon fiber layer out between two sheet of the cement paste, and then carbon fiber reinforced high strength cement composites were prepared by pressing them. The mechanical properties of the composites were investigated through the observation of the microstructure and the application of fracture mechanics. When the carbon fiber was added with 0.2 and 0.3wt% to the composites the flexural strength and Young's modulus were about 110∼116MPa and 74∼77GPa respectively, and critical stress intensity was about 3.14MPam1/2. It can be considered that the strength improvement of high strength cement fiber composites may be due to the removal of macropores and the increase of various fracture toughness effects; grain bridging, frictional interlocking, polymer fibril bridging and fiber bridging.

The release of progesterone from monolithic devices composed of different ratios of polyethylene oxide (PEO; mw 20, 000) and hydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane was investigated. Water soluble PEO soaked into the polymer provided controlled release of progesterone. The release rate of progesterone could be controlled by varying the contents of PEO and progesterone in soaking solution. The progesterone release rate from silicone devices increased as the content of PEO in devices increased, while it decreased as the content of PEO in soaking solution increased. The release rate may be made by simple alterations of geometry of devices controlled swelling and the change in the physical structure of polymer network. Hydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane containing PEO and progesterone can provide a contraceptive material for prolonged release of progesterone.

Recently, people are gradually concerned about environmental issue, bionics, environmental-friendly or biocompatible materials. Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) is suitable for these materials, because it is typically water-soluble polymer that have linear-flexible chains, a material of no toxicity for human, and biodegradable polymer[1]. One of the most effective factors that dominate the properties of PVAs is tacticity. (omitted)

Mungbean trypsin inhibitor (MBTI) was isolated and purified from Mung bean which has been used as a galenic and traditional food. MBTI and poly(ethylene glycol) were conjugated by using water soluble carbodiimide. We evaluated the therapeutic value of the MBTI and MBTI-PEG conjugate using animal models, sublethal septic shock model in guinea pig caused by pseudomonal elastase, shock model in rat caused by lipopolysaccharide, and the vascular permeability test by using pseudomonal elastase. In two shock model in guinea p Is and in rat, hypotesion shock was inhibited by pretreatment of MBTI. And also the vascular permeability caused by pseudomonal elastase reduced by pretreatment of MBTI. Also, therapeutic value of the MBTI-PEG conjugate was evaluated by using the sublethal septic shock model caused by pseudomonal elastase. The MBTI-PEG conjugate was more effective than native MBTI against pseudomonal elastase induced septic shock in guinea pig model.

Hydrocortisone (HC) sustained-release suppositories were prepared by using a solid matrix of methacrylic acid-methacrylic acid methyl ester copolymer $(Eudragit\;L_{100}^{R}:\;EL)$ as a poorly water soluble carrier and polyethylene glycole 1540 (PEG) as an water soluble carrier. HC release rate was controlled by complexation with ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ $({\beta}-CyD)$ which was confirmed by X-ray diffractometry, IR-spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. Release rate of HC from the EL-PEG matrix suppositories decreased with increase of EL contents. The release rale from $HC-{\beta}-CyD$ complex decreased in the following order: $HC-{\beta}-CyD/PEG$ > HC/PEG > $HC-{\beta}-CyD/EL_{10%}-PEG$ > $HC/EL_{10%}-PEG$ > $HC-{\beta}-CyD/EL_{15%}-PEG$ > $HC/EL_{15%}-PEG$ > $HC-{\beta}-CyD/EL_{20%}-PEG$ > $HC/EL_{20%}-PEG$. The crystallinity of HC in polymer matrix was identified using X-ray diffractometer and the surface of matrix suppositories after release test was examined by scanning electron microscopy. The sustained release of HC from these matrix suppositories was attributed to the network structure of EL.

Laser-induced photoacoustic spectroscopy (LIPAS), which utilizes the photothermal effect that results from nonradiative relaxation of excited state molecules, was used in the speciation analysis of the complexes of neodymium(III) and water soluble synthetic polyelectrolyte, poly methacrylic acid (PMAA), in 0.1 M $NaClO_4$ at pH of 6.0. The minimum detection limit of Nd(III) by LIPAS was $5.O{\times}10^{-6}$ M. Experiment was carried out at low concentration ratio of Nd(III) to PMAA to assure that 1 : 1 complexes predominate. The bound and free Nd(III) species were characterized by measuring nonradiative relaxation energy of the excited states $(^2GM{7/2}\;and\;^4G_{5/2})$ to the metastable state $(^4G_{3/2})$. Two species were quantified by deconvolution of the mixed spectrum using their respective reference spectra. The conditional stability constant measured by LIPAS was 5.52 L$mol^{-1}$.

In order to increase the lower values of % grafting and monomer conversion in the emulsion graft polymerization of methylmethacrylate(MMA) onto sodium alginate (SA; a polymer electrolyte) with alginic acid-g-PMMA, the graft polymerization with water soluble (methanol and acetone) and insoluble solvents was carried out using a varity of solvent amounts and agitating rates. And some physical properties of the graft polymer were also investigated. In the polymerizations with water insoluble solvent, there were pronounced improvements in both % grafting and MMA conversion by the promotion of MMA diffusion from the core to the SA adsorpted on the outer layer of particle and that of MMA complex formation with SA. And the effect was larger for the solvents (cyclohexane, decalin) which do not dissolve PMMA. On the other hand, in the polymerization with water soluble solvent, there was an significant increase in MMA conversion and a considerable increase in the % grafting by the destruction of electrical double layer around the SA chains, abstracting the hydrated water in the layer and the effect was more potential in the case of methanol which is a precipitant of PMMA.
