A newly cloned 4-α-glucanotransferase (αGT) from Deinococcus geothermalis and two typical bacterial αGTs from Thermus scotoductus and Escherichia coli (MalQ) were investigated. Among 4 types of catalysis, the cyclization activity of αGTs that produces cycloamylose (CA), a valuable carbohydrate making inclusion complexes, was intensively studied. The new αGT, DgαGT, showed close protein sequence to the αGT from T. scotoductus (TsαGT). MalQ was clearly separated from the other two αGTs in the phylogenetic and the conserved regions analyses. The reaction velocities of disproportionation, cyclization, coupling, and hydrolysis of three αGTs were determined. Intriguingly, MalQ exhibited more than 100-fold lower cyclization activity than the others. To lesser extent, the disproportionation activity of MalQ was relatively low. DgαGT and TsαGT showed similar kinetics results, but TsαGT had nearly 10-fold lower hydrolysis activity than DgαGT. Due to the very low cyclizing activity of MalQ, DgαGT and TsαGT were selected for further analyses. When amylose was treated with DgαGT or TsαGT, CA with a broad DP range was generated immediately. The DP distribution of CA had a bimodal shape (DP 7 and 27 as peaks) for the both enzymes, but larger DPs of CA quickly decreased in the DgαGT. Cyclomaltopentaose, a rare cyclic sugar, was produced at early reaction stage and accumulated as the reactions went on in the both enzymes, but the increase was more profound in the TsαGT. Taken together, we clearly demonstrated the catalytic differences between αGT groups from thermophilic and pathogenic bacteria that and showed that αGTs play different roles depending on their lifestyle.

A novel carbohydrolase, which is a DXAMase, containing both dextranase and amylase equivalent activities, was purified from Lipomyces starkeyi KSM22. The purified DXAMase was also found to hydrolyze cellobiose, gentiobiose, trehalose and melezitose, while disproportionation reactions were exhibited with various di- and tri-saccharides, such as maltose, isomaltose, gentiobiose, kojibiose, sophorose, panose, maltotriose, and isomaltotriose with various kinds of oligosaccharides produced as acceptor reaction products. Furthermore, the purified DXAMase hydrolyzed raw waxy rice Starch and produced maltodextrin to the extent of 50% as a glucose equivalent.

The HDDR (Hydrogenation-Disproportionation-Desorption-Recombination) process is a special method to produce anisotropic NdFeB powders for bonded magnet. The effect of the modified HDDR process on magnetic properties of $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$-based magnet with several composition $Nd_{11.2}Fe_{66.5-x}Co_{15.4}B_{6,8}Zr{0.1}Ga_x(x=0{\sim}1.0)$ and that of microelement Ga, disproportional temperature and annealing temperature on $_jH_c$, grain size were investigated in order to produce anisotropic powder with high magnetic properties. It was found that modified HDDR process is very effective to enhance magnetic properties and to fine grain size. The addition of Ga could change disproportionation character remarkably of the alloy and could improve magnetic properties of magnet powder. Increasing annealing temperature induces significant grain growth. And grain size produced by modified HDDR process is significantly smaller than those produced by conventional HDDR process.

양이온 교환 및 알루미늄 추출시킨 모더나이트와 제올라이트 Y 촉매에서 m-크실렌의 반응이 마이크로펄스방법으로 연구되었다. H-모더나이트 촉매에서 전처리온도가 높아지거나 Si/Al비가 증가할 때 동종간 주고 받기반응생성물이 크게 증가했다. $Ba^{2+}-, Mg^{2+}- $이온교환한 모더나이트촉매에서 양이온교환정도가 증가할에따라 트리메틸벤젠의 생성량이 급격히 감소했다. m-크실렌의 동종간 주고 받기반응에서는 모더나이트의 산성도의 영향과 아울러 촉매 유효세공의 크기에 따른 형상 선택성을 보여준다.

톨루엔의 동종간 주고 받기 반응에 대한 ZSM-5 촉매의 활성은 양이온의 종류, 이온교환을 그리고 반응온도에 좌우된다. 활성은 알카리금속, 알카리토금속, 수소, 희토류 금속 이온이 교환되는 순서로 증가하며 이온 교환도가 증가함에 따라 감소한다. 이온 교환된 ZSM-5 촉매중에서 Cs-ZSM-5만이 p-크실렌에 대해 우세한 선택성을 나타내는데 p-크실렌에 대한 선택성은 세슘이온 교환율이 증가할 수록 반응온도가 감소 할수록 증가한다. 이러한 현상은 ZSM-5의 세공 교차점에 있는 세슘이온이 부분적으로 세공을 막아주는 형상 선택성으로 해석된다.

A solid-HDDR characteristics of the Nd-Fe-B-type alloys magnetic properties of the solid-HDDR treated materials have been investigated using three types of alloys; $Nd_{15}Fe_{77}B_8 (alloy A), Nd_{16}Fe_{75.9}B_8Zr_{0.1}(alloy B), and Nd_{12.6}Fe_{68.7}Co_{11.6}B_8Ga_{1.0}Zr_{0.1} $(alloy C). It has been found that the four-components alloy B and six-components alloy C have showed higher hydrogenation temperatures than the ternary alloy A. The alloys A and B appeared to absorb more hydrogen gas more rapidly as well compared to the alloy C. The disproportionation temperature of hydrogenated materials was exhibited no significant difference among the alloys. The thermal stability of the hydrided materials of the three types of alloys was found to become more stable in order of number of components. The disproportionation and the recombination kinetics were significantly sluggish in the solid-HDDR manner with respect to the conventional manner. Some degree of anisotropic nature was found to exist in the ingot and this anisotropic nature was retained even after the solid-HDDR treatment. It was suggested the solid-HDDR treatment may possibly be used for a preparation of an isotropic or anisotropic Nd-Fe-B-type cast magnets.

A non-coercive cast Nd-Fe-B-type material can be easily converted into a coercive one by employing HDDR process. Applying the conventional HDDR process to the Nd-Fe-B-type material generally leads to a powder-like material. HDDR treated material in a solid form can, however, be realised if the process is properly modified (solid-HDDR). In the present study, the change of rigidity (compressive strength) of the Nd-Fe-B-type material during the solid-HDDR has been investigated using a homogeneous sintered magnet with composition $Nd_{13.8}Dy_{0.7}Fe_{78.25}Si_{0.15}Mn_{0.6}B_{6.5}.$ It has been found that the low strength of the hydrided material was improved by the subsequent disproportionation. The restoration of the strength was explained by the eutectoid-like disproportionation structure containing fine neodymium hydride rod embedded in tough iron matrix. The high strength of disproportionated material was reduced radically in earlier stage of recombination, and this wes explained by the reduction of the disproportionated phase. The reduced strength was, however, recovered by further recombination, and this was explained by the fact that as the recombination continues the recombined grains adhere together. The optimally HDDR processed material has a comparable or even higher strength with respect to the initial sintered material prior to the solid-HDDR. The present study suggested that the rigidity of Nd-Fe-B-type material could be retained even after the solid-HDDR.

HDDR (hydrogenation, disproportionation, desorption, recombination) and mechanical milling processes have been applied to the $SmCo_{5}$ alloy in an attempt to produce a highly coercive powder. The $SmCo_{5}$ alloy had very high structural stability under the hydrogen atmosphere and the 1:5 phase was only partially disproportionated under up to 10 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ hydrogen gas. The partially disproportionated material was recombined not into 1:5 phase after the HDDR, but rather into multi-phase mixture consisting of 1:5, 2:17, 2:7 and 1:7 phases. The $SmCo_{5}$ alloy HDDR-treated with hydrogen up to 10 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ had poor coercivity. For a useful HDDR to prepare a high coercivity $SmCo_{5}$ alloy powder, much higher hydrogen pressure well exceeding 10 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ would be required. The $SmCo_{5}$ alloy lump was amorphized by an intensive mechanical milling, and it was crystallised ultra-finely by a subsequent optimum annealing. The optimally annealed material had very high coercivity, and it was found that the mechanical milling followed by an annealing was an effective way of producing highly coercive $SmCo_{5}$ alloy powder.
