  • Patent number: 9428624
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a wide film comprises a casting operation, a stretching operation, and a trimming operation. The casting operation is a process of casting a film using a wide casting belt including a central belt, a left belt having a right end formed integrally with a left end of the central belt through a left joint in a length direction of the central belt, and a right belt having a left end formed integrally with a right end of the central belt through a right joint in the length direction of the central belt. The stretching operation is a process of stretching a film stripped off from the wide casting belt using a tenter. The trimming operation is a process of trimming predetermined parts of left and right sides of the stretched film. In the trimming operation, mark parts by the left and right joints are also trimmed.

  • Patent number: 9096718
    Abstract: Provided is a method for improving thermal stability of polypropylene carbonate and, more particularly, a method of end capping a molecular chain of polypropylene carbonate using a urethane group by adding isocyanates or diisocyanates to a polypropylene carbonate resin, which may optionally be a mixture containing tertiary polyol, so as to delay thermal degradation of the polypropylene carbonate at a high temperature, thereby securing desired thermal stability. Especially, the method capable of being easily applied to reactive extrusion after preparing the polypropylene carbonate has been proposed, thus simplifying production processes and ensuring economical advantages. Moreover, the above method does not deteriorate transparency and specific smoke density characteristics at combustion, which are advantages of the polypropylene carbonate.

  • Patent number: 9050743
    Abstract: Provided is a molded body in which at least one surface layer made of a copolyester polymer is laminated on one surface or both surfaces of a base layer made of aliphatic polycarbonate. When coextruding aliphatic polycarbonate and copolyester polymer, two layers adhere well to each other and are hardly delaminated from each other even without an adhesive and a tie layer, oxygen barrier property and low-temperature heat seal property can be provided as compared with a case where the copolyester polymer alone is used, the cost can be reduced because a separate adhesive or a tie layer is not required, and the manufacturing cost can be significantly reduced because the constitution of layers is simplified.

  • Patent number: 9023979
    Abstract: This invention relates to a method of preparing poly(alkylene carbonate) that has a molecular weight and polymer chain structure precisely controlled by adding a chain transfer agent composed of a compound having an alcohol or carboxylic acid functional group upon alternating copolymerization of an epoxide compound and carbon dioxide using a catalyst composed of a trivalent metal complex compound synthesized from a quaternary ammonium salt-containing Salen type ligand, and to a polymer compound prepared thereby. According to this invention, the polymer compound having a star-shaped chain as well as the polymer having a linear chain can be prepared. The low-molecular-weight poly(alkylene carbonate) has an —OH terminal group and can be used alone as a coating agent, etc., and also in mixtures with an isocyanate compound and thus can be easily utilized to prepare polyurethane.

  • Patent number: 8900483
    Abstract: Disclosed is a polymer electrolyte composition, a gel-type polymer electrolyte obtained by mixing the same at normal temperature, and a dye-sensitized solar cell containing the electrolyte. Since the poly(alkylene carbonate)-based polymer is included, a crosslinking process by radiation of heat or UV is not required when the polymer electrolyte is manufactured, such that a manufacturing process is simple. Accordingly, the polymer electrolyte is useful for mass production of a solar cell and maintained in a uniform state without a phase separation between two components due to excellent affinity between the polymer and the organic solvent included in the electrolyte, and has excellent electrode-electrolyte interface property in the solar cell due to an adhesive property of the gelled polymer electrolyte.
