  • Patent number: 8008415
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a norbornene polymer that comprises a norbornene monomer having a photoreactive functional group, and a method of manufacturing the same. The norbornene polymer comprises at least 50 mol % of exo isomers among the norbornene monomers having the photoreactive functional group. Since the norbornene polymer according to the present invention comprises at least 50 mol % of exo isomers among the norbornene monomers having the photoreactive functional group, a molecular weight is significantly increased while the yield is not reduced during the manufacturing of the polymer. In views of the three dimensional structure, stability is ensured because the polymer has a planar structure in which the photoreactive groups between the molecules are close to each other. Therefore, the distance between the photoreactive groups is reduced, thus increasing the photoreaction rate.

  • Publication number: 20100133465
    Abstract: Disclosed is a composite formed by physical and chemical bonding of (a) a carbon nanotube (CNT); and (b) a metal complex with at least one kind of ligand coordinated to a central metal, the CNT being connected to the metal within the metal complex by a direct bond to the metal. Also, provided is a dispersant for a CNT containing a metal complex comprising (i) a complex ion with at least one kind of ligand (Ln) chemically bonded to a central metal; and (ii) a counter ion. By using a metal complex as a dispersant for a CNT, various characteristics possessed by the metal complex can be provided to the CNT, and the dispersibility of the CNT can be meaningfully increased by introducing a ligand and/or a counter ion having dispersion medium-affinitive properties.

  • Patent number: 6063943
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a heterogeneous polyimide-supported transition metal complex catalyst for epoxidation of olefin, which is prepared by impregnating a heat- and acid-resistant polyimide resin with a homogeneous metal catalyst of molybdenum, vanadium, tungsten or titanium, and a process for preparing epoxy compounds using the same. The heterogeneous polyimide-supported transition metal complex catalyst of the invention provides superior catalytic activity, selectivity and stability in the epoxidation of higher olefin. Further, the catalyst of the invention has strong resistance against heat and acid. Besides, the catalyst of the invention may provide the following advantages which are critical in industrial use: it permits relatively high yield of epoxy compounds; and, it can be easily separated from the reaction product, which eases recycling of the catalyst.
