Abstract: A core-shell copolymer, a method of making the same, and a thermoplastic resin composition including the same are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a core-shell copolymer includes a core and a shell surrounding the core, the core includes a conjugated diene-based monomer-derived repeating unit and a phosphate-based cross-linking agent-derived cross-linking part represented by Formula 1, and the shell includes a first alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer-derived repeating unit, a second alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer-derived repeating unit, and a sulfonate-based ionic monomer-derived repeating unit represented by Formula 2. The core is 68 parts to 92 parts and the shell is 8 parts to 32 parts, based on 100 parts of the core-shell copolymer, the core has a swell index of 2.7 to 10.9, the shell includes 1 wt % to 16 wt % of the sulfonate-based ionic monomer-derived repeating unit, and the shell has a weight average molecular weight of 105,000 g/mol to 645,000 g/mol.

Abstract: A magnetic field generating apparatus for a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system adopting a C-shaped open magnet support structure includes a pair of polygonal permanent magnets disposed parallel to each other in the horizontal plane, with a predetermined imaging area therebetween; a pair of polygonal magnetic pole plates, stacked to face each other on the inner sides of the pair of permanent magnets, respectively; a pair of yokes to which the permanent magnets are fixed; at least one column for connecting the two yokes at one ends thereof with the imaging area being interposed between the yokes, wherein the at least one column together with the pair of yokes forms a closed path of the magnetic field; shims disposed at the vertexes of the polygonal magnetic pole plates, the shims having a polygonal shape, wherein the shims of one of the polygonal magnetic pole plates face those of the other polygonal magnetic pole plate; peripheral permanent magnets disposed along the edges of the polygonal magnetic pole p
