Heteropoly acid(HPW) catalysts supported on three different carriers, an amorphous silica, MCM-41 and MCM-48, with different loadings and calcination temperatures have been prepared and characterized by X-ray diffraction, nitrogen physorption, infrared spectroscopy, and $^{31}P$ magic angle spinning NMR. From the result of IR and NMR, it was shown that HPW retains the Keggin structure on the supported catalysts. No HPW crystal phase was developed even at HPW loadings as high as 35 wt % on the MCM-41 and 65 wt % MCM-48. Thus, HPW appeared to form finely dispersed species. In the hydrolysis reaction of di, bis, tri-pentaerythritol, HPW/MCM-41, 48 exhibited higher catalytic activity than $HPW/SiO_2$ or HPW.

Lipid membranes composed of phosphatidylcholine (PC) are used in biophysical study to mimic cellular membranes and interactions between the membrane and chemicals, where organics solvents are used in dissolving lipids or chemicals. Later, solvents are removed from the solution under nitrogen gas at room temperature, followed by the further removal of the solvent at vacuum condition for several hours. In this process, some solvents are easily removed under described conditions above and others are required more severe conditions. In this study, $^{31}P$ solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) techniques and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used to see any changes in the line shapes of $^{31}P$ NMR spectra of multilamellar vesicles (MLVs) samples of POPC and in the phase change temperature of multilamellar vesicles (MLVs) of DPPC in DSC thermogram with or without any residual solvents. The thermodynamic parameters associated with the solvents did exhibit noticeable changes depending on solvent types. Thus, it is concluded that solvents should be carefully chosen and removed completely and experimental results should also be interpreted with caution particularly for the experiments investigating lipid phase changes and related topics.

Structure directing agent(SDA) containing piperidine moiety such as piperidine(PI), 2-methylpiperidine (MPI), 2,6-dimethylpiperidine(DMPI) and 2,2,6,6,-tetramethylpiperidine(TMPI), respectively has been utilized to synthesize aluminophosphate zeolite using hydrothermal method. The gel composition was $1.0Al_2O_3:1.0P_2O_5:0.76SDA:45H_2O$ and the hydrothermal heating was performed in an oven at 443 K and for 7 days at static mode. The obtained zeolitic material contained a lamellar structure when PI was used as the SDA. With a progressive increase of the SDA size, various structures of aluminophosphate including AlPO-5 of AFI structure were obtained. The aluminophosphate of SAS structure was formed when the largest TMPI was utilized as the SDA, which was confirmed by the Rietveld refinement. The result of $^{27}Al$ and $^{31}P$ MAS NMR of the sample suggested that Al and P were incorporated into the framework of the aluminophosphate.
