Oxidative decomposition of 2, 4, 6-trichlorophenol(TCP) was studied in aqueous solution. Iron and manganese protoporphyrin [or tetrakis(p-carboxyphenylporphyrin)] and their polymer supported derivatives were used as catalysts, and $KHSO_5$ and tert-butyldroperoxide(TBHP) as oxidants. Metalloporphyrin itself shows very poor catalytic activity in oxidative decomposition of TCP with oxidant. However, very high catalytic activity was observed when metalloporphyrin was chemically bound to newly synthesized polymers or XAD2 resin. Additionally, it revealed much higher catalytic activity in the presence of water-soluble polymers having a electron-donating axial ligand such as pyridine and immidazole. Maleic acid and chloromaleic acid were found in the resulting solution by ESI-MS. Especially, XAD2-supported metalloporphyrins can be reused as catalysts due to insolubility to solvent, and stability against oxidant.

Phenolic antioxidants are effective stabilizers that provide excellent long-term heat stability by preventing thermo-oxidative degradation during processing and service life. However, under a selected set of circumstances, certain types of phenolics have been susceptible to discoloration due to prolonged storage in an environment containing oxides of nitrogen. It is investigated that the effect of addition of secondary antioxidant and chemical structure of primary antioxidant on discoloration of amorphous poly-${\alpha}$-olefin (APAO), which is especially prone to be decomposed in high processing temperature. From the result, it is concluded that a higher level of steric hindrance of phenolic antioxidant provided by long alkyl chain allows a more enhanced synergic effect with secondary antioxidant.

The effects of antioxidants and thermal treatment on the radiation resistance of the gamma-ray irradiated polypropylene (PP) were studied. The PP was blended with various antioxidants and was fabricated into a sheet. The PP sheet was irradiated with gamma-ray to a dosage of 25kGy in the nitrogen atmosphere. The differences in both color and mechanical strength were investigated for the gamma-ray irradiated PP depending on the kind and the content of antioxidant. The residual amount of free radical and the variation of oxidation index were investigated for the gramma-ray irradiated PP with thermal treatment after irradiation. The PP having phosphite antioxidant showed little difference in color after gamma-ray irradiation compared with the PP having phenolic or mine antioxidant. Sufficient amount of free radical could be removed from the gamma-ray irradiated PP by the thermal treatment at $130\;^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. Thermally treated PP showed lower oxidation index than the PP without thermal treatment.

산화질소는 생리적 농도에서 세포내 신호전달자로 작용하지만 높은 농도에서는 세포독성을 일으킨다. 최근 치은 섬유아세포와 치주인대 섬유아세포는 산화질소 합성효소를 가지고 있고 세균의 lipopolysaccharide나 cytokine에 의해 대량의 높은 농도의 산화질소가 합성된다는 보고가 있음에도 지금까지 치은 조직에서 산화질소의 세포독성에 대한 연구는 아직 이루어 지지않고 있다. 본 연구는 사람의 치은 섬유아세포에서, 산화질소유도세포 고사기전을 밝히는데 목적이 있다. 세포 생장력은 MTT 방법으로 측정하였고, 세포의 형태적 변화는 Diff-Quick 염색법으로 조사하였다. Bcl-2 famly와 Fas 발현 정도는 RT-PCR 방법에 의해 확인하였으며, caspase-3, -8 와 -9의 활성은 spectrophotometer로 reactive oxygen species (ROS)는 형광분광계에 의해 측정되었다. 미토콘드리아에서 세포질로 분비된 cytochrome c는 western blot으로 조사하였다. 산화질소 유리제인 sodium nitroprusside (SNP) 처리는 사람 섬유아세포의 생존률을 시간과 농도 의존적으로 감소시켰고, 세포용적축소, 염색사 용축, DNA 절편화를 일으켰다. 또한, SNP 처리로 미토콘드리아에서 세포질로 유리되는 cytochrome c 양이 증가되었고, caspase-9 과 caspase-3 의 활성이 증가되었다. 한편, SNP 처리에 의해 death receptor 구성요소인 Fas 발현이 증가되었고, caspase-8의 활성이 증가되었다. Bcl-2 family 에 대한 RT-PCR 분석결과, 세포고사를 억제하는 Bcl-2 발현은 감소되었으나 세포고사를 자극하는 Bax와 Bid의 발현은 증가되었다. Soluble guanylate cyclase 억제제인 ODQ는 SNP에 의한 세포 생존율 감소를 차단하지 못했다. 따라서, 본 실험의 결과들은 사람 섬유아세포에서 산화질소유도 세포고사에 Bcl-2 family나 ROS가 매개하는 미토콘드리아 의존 및 death receptor 의존 세포고사기전이 관여함을 시사하였다.

In this study, the effect of various concentrations of antioxidants on thermo-oxidative degradation of polyamide 6 was investigated. Unstabilized and stabilized polyamides 6 were subjected to long-term oven aging in ambient atmosphere at 70~$160^{\circ}C$. All of specimens were discolored within 100 hr at temperature range of 70~$160^{\circ}C$. Optimum antioxidant concentration was determined from the data of mechanical properties, yellowness index and relative viscosity. The synergistic effect of each primary and secondary antioxidant concentrations was not observed. Yellowing phenomenon was explained by using NMR, IR and EA. Different carbonyl groups were detected by $^{13}C$/NMR. During thermooxidative degradation, oxygen consumptions were determined by EA. The lifetime after long-term aging was predicted using Arrhenius equation.

산업분야의 여러공정에서 배출되는 휘발성 유기화합물은 1차적인 작업자에 대한 유해성뿐만이 아니라 대기중에 배출시의 제 2차 오염물질의 생성 때문에 최근 들어 이러한 물질의 처리에 큰 관심이 집중되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 휘발성 유기화합물로서 프로판을 사용하여 이러한 초 희박 혼합기의 제거를 위해 재생열산화법이 제안되었다. 실험장치에는 중앙에 연소실과 전기적 열량공급장치를 장착하였다. 초 희박 혼합기의 연소실에서의 산화과정과 열사화 장치의 폐열회수 특성을 연구하기 위하여 혼합기의 농도, 유속 및 연소실 최대온도와 같은 다양한 작동조건을 고려하였다. 그 결과. 재생열산화장치가 초 희박 혼합기의 산화에 적절하게 사용될 수 있음을 알았으며 최대 96%의 제거효율 얻을 수 있었다. 산화과정중에 발생하여 배출되는 CO는 운전조건을 변화시킴으로써 그 농도를 낮출 수 있었으며 열적 NOx는 배출되지 않았다. 페열회수효율은 전 운전영역에서 높게 나타났으며 그 값이 최대 98%에 이르렀다.

Metallic nanoparticles have attractive properties in biomedical applications such as diagnostics and therapeutics. Cross linked dextran coated iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) and silica coated gadolinium oxide nanoparticles (SPGONs) have been synthesized as a radiosensitizer in the proton beam cancer therapy. The dextran and silicaused for the protective moieties on the SPIONs and SPGONs respectively. Size distributions of synthesized nanoparticles were confirmed 3~5 nm for SPIONs and 30~100 nm for SPGONs by transmission electron microscope (TEM). Cell survival fraction measurement and Western blot assay were performed to evaluate the radiosensitization effects of synthesized radiosensitizer. The calculated radiosensitization of SPIONs and SPGONs at 90 % cell death from the measured cell survival curves were 1.23 and 1.03 respectively. Western blotting results also show the same consistent results that the amount of released cytochrome c from mitochondria was considerably increased for the cancer cells taken up SPIONs.

대기중 가스상 $H_2O_2$(Hydrogen Peroxide)는 액상 화학반응과 기상 라디칼반응사이에 연결고리의 역할을 할 뿐만 아니라, 대기중의 $SO_2$를 $H_2SO_4$로 산화시키는 산화제로서 구름, 안개, 이슬 및 빗물의 산화에 중요한 역할을 담당한다. 또한 가스상 $H_2O_2$는 연쇄종결자와 $HO_2$.(hydroperoxyl radical)농도의 지표로서 광화학 스모그에 있어 중요한 화학종이기도 하다. $H_2O_2$농도의 증가는 결국 대기의 산화율 및 속도를 증가시키고 대류권내의 액상중에서 $H_2SO_4$ 생성을 가속화시킨다는 것은 이미 잘 알려져 있는 사실이다.

Novel adhesive polyaspartamides containing catechol and primary amine pendent groups were synthesized through successive ring-opening aminolysis reactions of dopamine (DOP) and ethylenediamine (EDA) with polysuccinimide (PSI). The oxidative gelation of aqueous dopamine-modified polyaspartamide was observed by adding $NaIO_4$ as the oxidizing reagent. FTIR, UV-vis and oscillatory rheometry was used to elucidate the oxidative cross-linking toward gel formation. The prepared gel was characterized by the swelling degree, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM).
