The present studies were undertaken to prepare calcium acetate from sea-mussel shell and then, to investigate the calcium absorption ratio for calcium acetate by using young albino rate male. Purities such as chloride, nitrate, nitrate, sulfate, phosphate and heavy metal passed to test as reagent grade and calcium acetate assay was 99.0%. No significant differences in the body weight gain between calcium acetate group, calcium gluconate group and calcium carbonate group were not recognized. Diet consumptions of calcium acetate group was almost similar with calcium gluconate group and calcium carbonate group. It was found that absorption rate of calcium acetate was $57.68{\pm}0.83%,\;58.08{\pm}0.94%$ and was $2.0{\sim}3.0%$ high than calcium gluconate and calcium carbonate group.

n-Butanol and ethyl acetate extracts of thermal treatment yam (Dioscorea batatas $D_{ECNE.}$) belonging to the family Dioscoreaceae were measured for their radical scavenging activity and lipid peroxidation inhibition ability. In this study, ethyl acetate extract showed the most potent antioxidant activity evaluated by ferrous ion chelating activity and NO radical scavenging activity. Nevertheless, n-butanol extract was more effective in inhibiting linoleic acid peroxidation. A significant difference between n-butanol extract and ethyl acetate extract in nitrite scavenging activity ${\beta}$-carotene bleaching assays could not be found. Also, the results of this study showed that thermal treatment yam could be used as easily accessible source of natural antioxidants and as a possible food supplement.

Chitosan(CS) and cellulose acetate(CA) composite films were prepared using formic acid as a cosolvent by casting, solvent evaporating and neutralization method. This study examines if the blending method, which uses formic acid as a cosolvent is efficient in improving the mechanical properties of CS film, especially wet strength and elongation. Formic acid is an effective cosolvent for the blend of CS and CA. Under wet condition, tensile strength and elongation of the composite films were obviously higher than those of the films made from pure CS. FTIR, DSC, and X-ray diffraction showed that the composite films exhibit a high level of compatibility and that strong interaction between the CS and CA was caused by intermolecular hydrogen bonding. The affinity series of composite film to transition metal ions are Cu(II) > Cd(II) > Cr(III). The adsorption of Cu((II) ion was shown to be highly pH sensitive.

ZnO has attracted much attention such as photocatalysts, sensors, piezoelectricity and etc. At present, an economical and rapid synthesis route based on the efficient microwave polyol process is used to synthesized metal-doped ZnO nanoclusters. Diethylene glycol has a property of high polarizability, and is an excellent microwave absorbing agent, thus leading to a high heating rate and a significantly shorter reaction time. In this study, metal-doped ZnO nanoclusters are obtained with different seed volumes, when zinc acetate dihydrate is used as a precursor, and metal acetate hydrate is used as a doped-metal and diethylene glycol is used as a solvent. The obtained metal-doped ZnO nanoclusters were characterized by FE-SEM, XRD, Raman and PSA.

The transesterification of dimethylphthalate by 1,4-butanediol was kinetically investigated In the presence of various metal acetate catalysts at 180$^{\circ}C$. The quantity of dimethylphthalate reacted in the reaction flask was measured by gas chromatography. The transesterification was assumed to obey first-order kinetics with respect to dimethylphthalate and 1,4-butanediol, and a rate equation was derived. The linear relationship was shown between apparent rate constant and reciprocal absolute temperature, the activation energy has been calculated as 7.4kcal with lead acetate. The maximum reaction rate was appeared at the range of 1.5${\sim}$1.6 of electronegativity of metal ions.

The transesterification reaction between diethanolamine and dimethylphthalate was kinetically investigated in the presence of various metal acetate catalysts at $130^{\circ}C$. The reaction was followed by the measurement of distilled methanol from the reaction vessel. The transesterification was found to obey first-order kinetics with respect to the concentration of diethanolamine and dimethylphthalate and catalyst, respectively. The reactivities has highest value where the electronegativity and instability constand (Kij) values for the metal acetate catalysts are about 1.6.

An experimental study is performed for extinguishing of n-heptane pool fire by water mist containing potassium acetate as a fire suppression additive. Water mist was generated by a single pressure nozzle in a small-scale chamber. The drop size distribution of water mist was measured using laser diffraction(Malvern particle sizer). The flame temperature, oxygen concentration and carbon monoxide concentration were measured. In case of using additives, the fire extinguishing time was shorter than that of pure water at a given discharge pressure and it was because the momentum of a water droplet containing additives was increased. And also dissociated metal atoms, potassium, were reacted as a scavenger of the major radical species OH, H which were generated for combustion process. Moreover, at a high pressure of 4MPa, the fire was extinguished through blowing effect as well as primary extinguishing mechanisms.

The thermal degradation of ABS in the presence of iron-based metal catalysts has been studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The reaction of iron-based metal catalysts (ferric nitrate nonahydrate, ammonium ferric sulfate dodecahydrate, iron sulfate hydrate, ammonium ferric oxalate, iron(II) acetate, iron(II) acetylacetonate and ferric chloride) with ABS has been found to occur during the thermal degradation of ABS. In a nitrogen atmosphere, char formation was observed, and at $600^{\circ}C$ approximately 3~23 wt% of the reaction product was non-volatile char. The resulting enhancement of char formation in a nitrogen atmosphere has been primarily due to the catalytic crosslinking effect of iron-based metal catalysts. On the other hand, char formation of ABS in air at high temperature by iron-based metal catalyst was unsuccessful due to the oxidative degradation of the char.

We studied the influence of different types of metal electrodes on the performance of solution-processed zinc tin oxide (ZTO) thin-film transistors. The ZTO thin-film was obtained by spin-coating the sol-gel solution made from zinc acetate and tin acetate dissolved in 2-methoxyethanol. Various metals, Al, Au, Ag and Cu, were used to make contacts with the solution-deposited ZTO layers by selective deposition through a metal shadow mask. Contact resistance between the metal electrode and the semiconductor was obtained by a transmission line method (TLM). The device based on an Al electrode exhibited superior performance as compared to those based on other metals. Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) allowed us to measure the work function of the oxide semiconductor to understand the variation of the device performance as a function of the types metal electrode. The solution-processed ZTO contained nanopores that resulted from the burnout of the organic species during the annealing. This different surface structure associated with the solution-processed ZTO gave a rise to a different work function value as compared to the vacuum-deposited counterpart. More oxygen could be adsorbed on the nanoporous solution-processed ZTO with large accessible surface areas, which increased its work function. This observation explained why the solution-processed ZTO makes an ohmic contact with the Al electrode.

The transesterification reaction between diethanolamine and methyl-methacrylate was kinetically investigated in the presence of various metal acetate catalysts at $120^{\circ}C$. The quantity of methylmethacrylate reacted in the reaction flask was measured by gas chromatography and liquid chromatography, and the reaction rate was investigated by measuring of the quantity of products and reactnts under various catalysts. The transesterification reaction was carried out in the first order reaction kinetics with respect to the concentration of diethanolamine and methylmethacrylate, respectively. The apparent rate constant was found to obey first-order kinetics with respect to the concentration of catalyst. The linear relationship was shown between apparent rate constant and reciprocal absolute temperature, and by the Arrhenius plot, the activation energy has been calculated as 11.08 Kcal with zinc acetate catalyst, 17.99 Kcal without catalyst. The maximum reaction rate was appeared at the range of 1.4 to 1.6 of electronegativity of metal ions and instability constant of metal acetates.
