The glycerol carbonate was synthesized by glycerol and urea using metal oxide catalysts. The physical properties of the prepared metal oxide catalysts were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), specific surface area analysis (BET), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and temperature programmed desorption (TPD). In addition, we confirmed the conversion of the glycerol and the yield of the glycerol carbonate according to characteristics of metal oxide catalysts. From XRD and FE-SEM analysis, the crystallite size and crystallinity of metal oxide catalysts decrease with addition of Al. In addition, the Zn-Al mixed metal oxide had higher catalytic activity than the pure ZnO due to decreased side reaction in the synthesis of glycerol carbonate.

Pseudo-first-order rate constants have been measured spectrophotometrically for the title reactions. The plot of kobs vs the concentration of alkali metal ethoxides is linear for the reactions performed in the presence of complexing age nt, 18-crown-6 ether, but curved upwardly for the corresponding reactions performed in the absence of the complexing agent, indicating that the alkali metal ions studied in this study behave as a catalyst. The catalytic effect was found to increase in the order Li+ << K+ ${\leq}$ Na+. Second-order rate constants were determined for the reactions with dissociated free ethoxide (kEtO-) and with ion paired alkali metal ethoxides (kEtO-M+ ) from ion pairing treatments. The magnitude of catalytic effect (kEtO-M+/kEtO-) was found to be 2.3, 9.5 and 8.7 for the reaction of 8-(5-nitroquinolyl) 2-furoate, while 1.4, 3.6 and 4.2 for that of 4-nitrophenyl 2-furoate, indicating that the catalytic effect is larger in the reaction of the former substrate than in that of the latter one. The larger catalytic effect was attributed to two possible complexing sites with alkali metal ions in the former substrate.

천연가스 수증기 개질 반응에 사용되는 펠릿 촉매의 단점인 열 및 물질 전달 제한, 낮은 effectiveness factor, 압력강화와 channeling 등의 문제점을 해결 하고자 모노리스 형태의 금속 구조체 촉매를 본 연구에 적용 하였다. Fecralloy 재질의 금속 구조체에 Ni 촉매를 워시코팅 (wash coating) 하여 제조 하였으며, 이를 천연가스 수증기 개질 반응에 적용하여 수소를 생산하였다. 실험 조건으로는 S/C ratio를 3으로 고정하여 온도를 $600^{\circ}C{\sim}800^{\circ}C$로 변화 시켰으며, GHSV $3000{\sim}30000h^{-1}$에서 진행 되었다. 구조체 촉매 코팅에 사용된 Ni 촉매의 BET, TPR, H2-chemisorption, SEM, EDS의 특성분석을 수행 하였다. 온도별 테스트에서 모노리스 형태의 금속 구조체 촉매가 펠릿 형태의 촉매에 비해 우수한 열전달 효과로 인해 낮은 퍼니스 온도와 높은 반응 활성을 나타내었으며, GHSV 변화에 따른 성능평가 결과도 15wt% $Ni/MgAl_2O_4$펠릿 촉매와 비교하여 금속 구조체 촉매가 높은 활성을 보였다.

본 연구에서는 천연가스 수증기 개질반응에 니켈 촉매가 코팅된 금속 구조체 촉매를 적용하여 수소를 생산하였다. 금속구조체 촉매는 기존 펠릿 촉매가 충진 된 촉매반응기에 비해 열 및 물질 전달 특성이 우수하여 이를 여러 개질반응에 적용하고자하는 연구가 수행되어 왔다. 하지만, 기존 금속구조체 촉매의 개발에 있어 촉매와 금속 지지체간의 안정한 결합을 통한 열안정성 확보에 대한 문제는 여전히 해결과제로 남아 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 니켈 촉매를 금속 지지체에 안정하게 부착하기 위한 금속 지지체 표면 처리 방법을 개발하였으며 금속 구조체의 형상에 상관없이 균일한 표면처리가 가능하였다. 개발된 표면 처리방법을 적용한 금속 구조체 촉매는 촉매와 금속지지체간의 결합력 향상으로 인해 120시간 이상 안정한 반응활성을 보였다. 또한, 빠른 공간속도에서도 펠릿촉매와 표면처리를 적용하지 않은 금속 구조체 촉매에 비해 높은 촉매 활성을 보였다. 뿐만 아니라, 본 연구에서 개발된 표면처리를 모노리스와 폼을 비롯한 다양한 형상의 금속구조체 촉매에 적용하여 기하학적 표면 특성에 따른 촉매의 활성 차이를 살펴보았다. 겉보기 표면적이 넓은 금속구조체일 수록 촉매의 고분산 코팅에 유리하여 높은 활성을 보였다.

In this study, oligo(3-methylthiothiophene) was synthesized from thiophene derivative according to the method of reductive coupling using palladium catalyst. For the preparation of monomer, 3-methylthiothiophene was first synthesized through the metal-halogen exchange reaction of 3-bromothiophene with n-butyllithiuim, and the corresponding 2,5-dibromo-3-methylthiothiophene was formed by bromination. Their synthesis and characterization were determined by $^1H-NMR$ and ATR analyses. Thermal stability of the oligothiophene was monitored by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Thermal evaporation of the oligo(3-methylthiothiophene) on the substrate was attempted for OTFT applications.

Alumina-supported catalysts containing different transition metals such as Cu, Cr, Mn, Zn, Co, W were investigated for their activity in the selective oxidation of toluene. Catalytic oxidation of toluene was investigated at atmospheric pressure in a fixed bed flow reactor system over transition metals with $Al_2O_3$ catalyst. The result showed the order of catalytic activities for the complete oxidation of toluene was Mn > Cu> Cr> Co> W> Zn for 5wt.% transition $metals/Al_2O_3$. $Mn/Al_2O_3$ catalysts containing different amount of Mn were characterized by X-ray diffraction spectroscopy for decision of loading amount of metal to alumina. 5 wt.%$Mn/Al_2O_3$ catalyst exhibits the highest catalytic activity, over which the toluene conversion was up to 90% at a temperature of $289^{\circ}C$.

The polymerization of a cyclopolymerizable disubstituted dipropargyl ether, his(3-trimethylsilyl-2-propynyl)ether (BTPE), was attempted by various transition metal catalysts. The yield for the polymerization of BTPE was generally low, which is possibly due to the steric hindrance of bulky substituents. In general, the catalytic activities of Mo-based catalysts were found to be greater than those of W-based catalysts. The highest yield was obtained when the MoCl$_{5}$,-EtAlCl$_2$(1:2) catalyst system was used. The copolymerization of BTPE and diethyl dipropargylmalonate yielded a random copolymer with conjugated polymer backbone. However the polymers were partially desilylated, depending on the reaction conditions. The thermal and morphological properties of the resulting polymers were also discussed.d.

A series of ethylene polymerization catalysts based on tridentate bis-imine ligands coordinated to iron and cobalt was reported. The ligands were prepared through the condensation of sterically bulky anilines with allyloxy-and benzyloxy-substituted 2,6-acetylpyridines. The pre-catalyst complexes were penta-coordinate species of the general formula $\{[(ArN=C(Me))_2(4-RO-C_5H_3N)]MCl_2\}$ (Ar=ortho dialkyl-substituted aryl ring; R=allyl, benzyl; M=Fe, Co). In the presence of ethylene and methyl alumoxane cocatalysts, these complexes were active for the polymerization of ethylene, with activities lower than those of metal complexes of the general formula $\{[(2-ArN=C(Me)_2C_5H_3N]MCl_2\}$ (Ar=ortho dialkyl-substituted aryl ring; M=Co, Fe), containing no substituents in 2,6-acetylpyridine ring. The effects of the catalyst structure and temperature on the polymerization activity, thermal properties, and molecular weight were discussed.

In this paper, by using the electrophoresis, preparation of YBCO superconducting wire deposited on metal Ag base wire was studied with its Properties. YBCO Powder could be prepared by solid state reactions with calcining and sintering processes. Superconducting wire prepared on metal Ag wire used as cathode of deposition base could be also fabricated in the YBCO/acetone-dispersed solution to obtain several tens of re thick films. And then it could be used as superconducting wire for measurement after calcination, sintering and oxygen absorption processes. In the process of film deposition, a catalyst I$_2$added into the suspension solution was very useful for preparing thick film of YBCO, and BaF$_2$ of additive material was also necessary for preparing crack-free wire of YBCO superconductor. As a result, YBCO superconducting wire added 2~3wt.% of BaF$_2$\ulcorner with catalyst, 12 had better deposition condition for uniform and dense YBCO wires, and critical current density, Jc was calculated at the value of 1,458A/$\textrm{cm}^2$(more than 10$^{3}$A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ ,77K, o[T]) of 30${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ thick sample by 4 point prove method.

The catalytic activity of an inorganic-organic complex with a vanadium-substituted polyoxometalate 1, formulated as [Cu(2,2'-bipy)]$[Cu(2,2'-bipy)_2]_2[PMo_8V_6O_{42}]{\cdot}1.5H_2O$ was studied in the Biginelli reactions. The obtained results showed that, in the one-pot synthesis of dihydropyrimidinones, the turnover frequencies (TOF) for the [Cu(2,2'-bipy)]$[Cu(2,2'-bipy)_2]_2[PMo_8V_6O_{42}]{\cdot}1.5H_2O$ catalyst were higher than the $H_3PMo_{12}O_{40}$ catalyst.
