The non-Newtonian viscosities (the specific or intrinsic viscosities) of poly(L-proline) (PLP, $M_v$=19,000 and 32,000) in various mixed-solvent systems like water-propanol and acetic acid-propanol of varying compositions were measured during the reverse mutarotation (Form II ${\rightarrow}$Form I) by the application of external pressure (up to 4.5 psi). The non-Newtonian viscosity effect was found to be larger in acetic acid-propanol system than in water-propanol system and to somewhat decrease during the reverse mutarotation at a given solvent system. The non-Newtonian viscosity behavior of PLP in aqueous salt ($CaCl_2$) solution was also studied, from which it was found that the degree of the non-Newtonian effect decreased with increasing salt concentration, and increased with increasing PLP molecular weight. These findings could be explained in terms of conformational changes of PLP in solution (like the helix-helix or helix-coil transition) involved.

(p-Methylbenzyl)-o-cyanopyridinium hexafluoroantimonate, a new catalyst, was synthesized by the reaction of o-cyanopyridine with α-bromo-p-xylene followed by exchange of counteranion with SbF6θ. We examined the effect of the catalyst on the bulk polymerization of tetrahydrofuran under various conditions. The catalytic activity was best in the presence of 1 : 1 of epichlorohydrin used as cocatalyst versus catalyst concentration. The resulting polymers had relatively low conversions in 1.0-40%. Their number average molecular weights were in the range of 800 to 5300. Propagation rate increased with increase in temperature according to an Arrhenius expression giving an activation energy of 62 KJ/mol. We also found catalyst proceeds via a cationic mechanism.

A series of $Er^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$ co-doped fluorophosphate glasses with varying $YbF_3$ concentration were prepared by a high temperature melt quenching technique. Absorption and emission cross-sections were determined by using the McCumber theory. The larger emission cross-section ($9.86{\times}10^{-21}cm^2$) and longer fluorescence lifetime (12.37 ms) were obtained for the $^4I_{13/2}{\rightarrow}^4I_{15/2}$ transition of ABS3Er4Yb glass. The sensitivity and temperature of the maximum sensitivity were evaluated by the fluorescence intensity ratio method from the measured upconversion spectra. The results were discussed and compared to the other reported glasses.

형광체 내 모체로 사용될 때 활성 이온 주위에 분포하여 형광 특성에 많은 영향을 미치는 알칼리 토금속인 $Ba^{2+}$ 이온을 기반으로 하는 바나데이트 화합물인 $Ba_2GdV_3O_{11}$에 희토류 이온 $Eu^{3+}$를 첨가하여 형광 강도 및 형광 수명을 연구하였다. 고상법을 이용하여 $Ba_2GdV_3O_{11}:Eu^{3+}$ 형광체를 합성하였으며 X선 회절 분석을 통하여 형광체의 결정성을 확인하였다. $Ba_2GdV_3O_{11}:Eu^{3+}$ 형광체의 형광특성은 광학 및 레이저를 이용하여 측정하였다. $Ba_2GdV_3O_{11}:Eu^{3+}$ 형광체의 에너지 전이와 확산은 $Eu^{3+}$의 농도에 크게 의존한다. $Eu^{3+}$의 농도가 낮을 때 CT 밴드로의 강한 형광을 보이나 $Eu^{3+}$의 농도가 높아질수록 4f - 4f 전이에 의한 형광이 강하게 나타난다. $Eu^{3+}$ 이온의 농도 증가로 인해 이온 간의 에너지가 확산되어 형광의 수명시간은 감소하였다. 에너지 전이는 낮은 $Eu^{3+}$ 농도에서 두 $Eu^{3+}$ 이온 사이에서 발생하며 에너지 확산은 높은 $Eu^{3+}$ 농도에서 크게 발생한다.

최근 피부 기능 개선과 관련한 다양한 가능성으로 인해 화장품 소재로서 수요가 높아지고 있는 인삼 유래 사포닌의 한 종류인 ginsenoside Rd를 위한 생물 전환 제조 기술을 확립하였다. 홍삼 사포닌(RGS)에 포함된 ginsenoside Rb1을 Rd로 전환하기 위하여 상업용 효소를 탐색하였고 그 중 Viscoflow MG가 가장 효율적인 것을 확인하였다. Ginsenoside Rd로의 전환에 영향을 주는 요인을 최적화하기 위하여 반응표면분석법(RSM)을 통하여 실험 조건을 설계하였다. 주요 독립변수는 RGS 농도, 효소 농도와 반응 시간이었고 Box-Behnken design (BBD) 모델설계법에 따라 선정된 17 가지 조건으로 ginsenoside Rd로 전환을 수행하고 최적화 조건을 분석하였다. 전환된 Ginsenoside Rd의 농도는 0.3113 g/L에서 최대 0.5277 g/L까지였고 RGS 2%, 효소 1.25%를 13.5 h 반응시킨 조건에서 가장 높은 생성량을 보였다. 결론적으로, ginsenoside Rd 생물전환의 독립변수인 RGS 농도, 효소 농도는 p-value가 0.05보다 작은 값으로 유의미한 값을 나타내었고 각 독립변수 사이의 교호작용 중에서는 효소 농도와 반응 시간 사이의 교호 작용이 가장 큰 영향력을 갖고 있음을 확인하였다.

A kinetic study is reported on nucleophilic displacement reactions of benzyl 2-pyridyl carbonate 6 with alkalimetal ethoxides, EtOM (M = Li, Na, and K), in anhydrous ethanol at $25.0{\pm}0.1^{\circ}C$. The plots of pseudo-firstorder rate constant $k_{obsd}$ vs. [EtOM] curve upward, a typical phenomenon reported previously for alkaline ethanolysis of esters in which alkali-metal ions behave as a Lewis-acid catalyst. The kobsd value for the reaction of 6 with a fixed EtOK concentration decreases rapidly upon addition of 18-crown-6-ether (18C6), a complexing agent for $K^+$ ion up to [18C6]/[EtOK] = 1.0 and then remains constant thereafter, indicating that the catalytic effect exerted by K+ ion disappears in the presence of excess 18C6. The reactivity of EtOM towards 6 increases in the order $EtO^-$ < EtOLi < EtONa < EtOK, which is contrasting to the reactivity order reported for the corresponding reactions of 2-pyridyl benzoate 4, i.e., $EtO^-$ < EtOK < EtONa < EtOLi. Besides, 6 is 1.7 and 3.5 times more reactive than 4 towards dissociated $EtO^-$ and ion-paired EtOK, respectively. The reactivity difference and the contrasting metal-ion selectivity are discussed in terms of electronic effects and transition-state structures.

Charpy V-notch impact tests were performed on the full-, half-and third-size specimens from two ferritic SA 508 Cl. 3 steels for nuclear pressure vessel. New normalization factors were proposed to predict the upper shelf energy(USE) and the ductile-brittle transition temperature(DBTT) of full-size specimens from the measured data on sub-size specimens. The factors for the USE and the DBTT are $(Bb^2/Kt); and; (Bb/R)^1/2/, $ respectively, where B the width, b the ligament size, $K_{t}$ the elastic stress concentration factor, and R the notch root radius. These correlations successfully estimated the USE and DBTT of the full-size specimens based on sub-size specimen data. In addition, the size effects were studied to develop the correlations among absorbed energy, lateral expansion(LE) and displacement. It was also found that the LE was able to be estimated from the displacement obtained by the instrumented impact test, and that the displacement would be used as a criterion for the toughness of the steels corresponding to change in their yield strength.h.

In this research article, acid resistance, sulphate resistance and sorptivity of self compacted concrete (SCC) prepared from C&D waste have been discussed. To improve the above properties of self compacted recycled aggregate concrete (SCRAC) along with mechanical and durability properties, different two stage mixing approaches (TSMA and TSMAsfc) were followed. In the proposed two stage mixing approach (TSMAsfc), silica fume, a proportional amount of cement and a proportional amount of water were mixed in premix stage which fills the pores and cracks of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). The concrete specimen prepared using above mixing approaches were immersed in 1% concentration of sulphuric acid (H2SO4) and magnesium sulphate (MgSO4) solution for 28, 90 and 180 days for evaluating the acid resistance of SCRAC. Experimental results concluded that the proposed two stage mixing approach (TSMAsfc) is most suitable for acid resistance and sulphate resistance in terms of weight loss and strength loss due to the elimination of pores and cracks in the interfacial transition zone (ITZ). In modified two stage mixing approach, the pores and cracks of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) were filled up and make ITZs of SCRAC stronger. Microstructure analysis was carried out to justify the reason of improvement of ITZs by electron probe micro analyser (EPMA) analysis. X-ray mapping was also done to know the presence of strength contributing elements presents in the concrete sample. It was established that SCRAC with modified mixing approach have shown improved results in terms of acid resistance, sulphate resistance, sorptivity and mechanical properties.

Electrons and phonons in chalcogenide-based materials play are important factors in the performance of an optical data storage media and thermoelectric devices. However, the fundamental kinetics of carriers in chalcogenide materials remains controversial, and active debate continues over the mechanism responsible for carrier relaxation. In this study, we investigated ultrafast carrier dynamics in an multilayered $\{Sb(3{\AA})/Te(9{\AA})\}n$ thin film during the transition from the amorphous to the crystalline phase using optical pump terahertz probe spectroscopy (OPTP), which permits the relationship between structural phase transition and optical property transitions to be examined. Using THz-TDS, we demonstrated that optical conductance and carrier concentration change as a function of annealing temperature with a contact-free optical technique. Moreover, we observed that the topological surface state (TSS) affects the degree of enhancement of carrier lifetime, which is closely related to the degree of spin-orbit coupling (SOC). The combination of an optical technique and a proposed carrier relaxation mechanism provides a powerful tool for monitoring TSS and SOC. Consequently, the response of the amorphous phase is dominated by an electron-phonon coupling effect, while that of the crystalline structure is controlled by a Dirac surface state and SOC effects. These results are important for understanding the fundamental physics of phase change materials and for optimizing and designing materials with better performance in optoelectronic devices.

LCD용의 재료로 사용하기 위하여 새로이 합성된 저분자 액정 중간체들을 이용하여 epoxy resin 구조를 근간으로 하는 측쇄형 선형액정 고분자 및 가교된 측쇄형 액정 고분자를 만들고 이 들의 액정특성에 대하여 조사하였다. Alkyl spacer의 길이가 다른 방향족 amine 말단의 방향족 저분자 액정(ALC(n))과 ethylene glycol diglycidylether로부터 합성된 선형 측쇄형 고분자액정은 DSC 및 편광현미경 관찰로부터 mesogen으로 쓰인 저분자 액정과 같이 네마틱 액정상을 보였으며 spacer $-(CH_2){_n}-$의 길이에 따라 액정상-등방상 전이온도($T_{NI}$)는 even-odd현상을 나타내었다. 선형 및 가교형 측쇄 액정고분자의 $T_{NI}$는 저분자 액정의 그것에 비해 더 낮은 온도에서 나타났으며 또한 가교형 측쇄 액정고분자의 경우에는 가교제인 1,10-diaminodecane 사용량에 따른 $T_g$및 $T_{NI}$의 변화폭이 그렇게 크지 않은 것이 관찰되었다.
