3,3-Dimethyl-1-butene ($C_6H_{12}$) monomer was deposited using a plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) instrument. The more the R.F. power/pressure ratio in FT-IR spectrum, the less the hydrogen quantity and the dangling bond in amorphous carbon films observed so that the mechanical property of the films are improved related to the density. Also, with the increase D peak in Raman spectrum is increased and the ring structure's films are produced. According to these results, hardness and modulus are 12 GPa and 85 GPa, respectively. The refractive index (n) and extinction coefficients (k) of the deposited films are increased with the increase in a power/pressure ratio.

Unsized AS-4 carbon fibers were etched by RF plasma and then coated via plasma polymerization in order to enhance adhesion to vinyl ester resin. The gases utilized for the plasma etching were Ar, $N_2 and O_2$, while the monomers used for the plasma polymerization coating were acetylene, butadiene and acrylonitrile. The conditions for the plasma etching and the plasma polymerization were optimized by measuring interfacial adhesion with vinyl ester resin via micro-droplet tests. Among the treatment conditions, the combination of Ar plasma etching and acetylene plasma polymerization provided greatly improved interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of 69MPa compared to 43MPa with as-received carbon fiber. Based on the SEM analysis of failure surface and load-displacement curve, it was assume that the failure might be occurred at the carbon fiber and plasma polymer coating. The plasma etched and plasma polymer coated carbon fibers were subjected to analysis with SEM, XPS, FT-IR or Alpha-Step, and dynamic contact angles and tensile strengths were also evaluated. Plasma polymer coatings did not change tensile strength and surface roughness of fibers, but decreased water contact angle except butadiene plasma polymer coating, possibly owing to the functional groups introduced, as evidenced by FT-IR and XPS.

8-Formyl-4-Methyl-7-Hydroxy Coumarin Derivatives were synthesized via Penchem condensation followed by Duffs reaction. Treatment of this with N,N-di substituted cyano acetamides in the presence of piperdine afforded New 8-Formyl-4-Methyl-7-Hydroxy Coumarin Derivatives (7a-o). Their structures were characterized by IR, $^1H$ and $^{13}C$ NMR and Mass spectral and elemental analysis data.

Electrical properties of electrochromic (EC) InN thin films prepared by rf ion plating were studied. There was a correlation between the electrical properties and the electrochromism in the InN films, particularly, carrier concentration changes were responsible for the electrical resistivity changes of the films due to the electrochromism. These carrier concentration changes were caused by chemisorbed hydroxyl groups and protons. From these results, it was proved that the carrier concentration changes of the InN films was responsible for the electrochromism in the visible and near-infrared region.

L-Alanine(L-ala) and S-methyl-L-cysteine(L-mcy) cobalt(III) complexes of a flexible $N_2O_2$-type tetradentate ligand ethylenediamine-N,N'-di- -butyric acid(eddb), s-cis-[Co(eddb)(L-ala)] and s-cis-[Co(eddb)(L-mcy), have been prepared via the substitution reactions of the s-cis-$[Co(eddb)Cl_2]$-complex with, respectively, L-alanine and S-methyl-L-cysteine. Both L-alanine and S-methyl-L-cysteine are found to coordinate to the cobalt(III) ion via the nitrogen and oxygen donor atoms to give the meridional s-cis isomer. Electronic absorption, ir and pmr spectra are used to characterize the complexes obtained in this work along with elemental analysis data.

In this study, nano-sized Si-C-N precursor powders were synthesized by Chemical Vapor Condensation Method(CVC) using TMS(Tetramethylsilane: Si($CH_3)_4$), $NH_3$ and $H_2$ gases under the various reaction conditions of the reaction temperature, TMS/$NH_3$ ratio and TMS/$H_2$ ratio. XRD and FESEM were used to analysis the crystalline phase and the average particle size of the synthesized powders. It was found that the obtained powders under the considering conditions were all spherical amorphous powder with the particle size of 87∼130 nm. The particle size was decreased as the reaction temperature increased and TMS/$NH_3$ and TMS/$H_2$ ratio decreased. As the results of EA analysis, it was found that the synthesized powders had been formed the powders composed of Si, N, C and H. Through FT-IR results, it was found that the synthesized powders were Si-C-N precursor powders with Si-C, Si-N and C-N bonds.

Objective: This experimental study was performed to examine if Hang-Am-Dan non-boiled water extracts (HAD-N) induce apoptosis in human lung carcinoma NCI-H460 cells in vitro and inhibits the growth of NCI-H460 cell-transplanted solid tumor in vivo. Materials and Methods: We cultured NCI-H460 cell lines and xenografted them to nude mice. The mice were divided into 3 groups, NCI-H460 cell alone, NCI-H460 + 90 mg/kg HAD-N treated group, and NCI-H460 + 180 mg/kg HAD-N treated group, with seven mice per group. HAD-N was orally administrated every day for four weeks. We checked their body weight and tumor weight and volumes two times a week and their absolute organ weight and biochemical blood analysis at the final day by sacrificing them. We also calculated their tumor inhibition rate (IR), mean survival time and percent increase in life span (% ILS). Results: In this study, we observed that all of the HAD-N treated mice got smaller tumors. The more doses of HAD-N used, the less IR showed at the 8th day after starting this experiment. Tumor weight and volume of HAD-N treatment groups also decreased. Mean survival time and percent increase in life span (% ILS) in the high-dose HAD-N treatment groups were higher than those of other groups. The test substances in the blood level UN results showed reduction in the significance in both HAD-N 90 mg/kg and HAD-N 180 mg/kg (p<0.01). The blood level phosphatase results in HAD-N 90 mg/kg group compared to NCI-H460 cell alone group showed a reduction in significance (p<0.05). AST levels HAD-N 180 mg/kg group compared to NCI-H460 cell alone group significance as well (p<0.05). Conclusion: We suggest that the results of the in vivo study showed that HAD-N may have potential as a growth inhibitor of tumor-induced NCI-H460 of nude mice in spite of the shortcomings of this study. More studies to overcome those shortcomings and to find out significant antitumor mechanism will be needed.

The effect of DCCA (Drying Control Chemical Additives) on the drying of gel was investigated in order to determine an optimum drying condition of mullite precursor through sol-gel process. Aluminium sec-butoxide was synthesized from aluminium foil and then mullite powders were synthesized from Tetra-ethyl-ortho-silicate (TEOS) and the aluminium sec-butoxide. N, N-dimethyl formamide (DMF), Glycerol, 1, 4-Dioxane, and Oxalic acid were used as DCCA. Mullite powders that were calcined at 200, 900, 1100, and $1250^{\circ}C$ for 2hr were analysed by XRD, TG-DTA, FT-IR, and SEM in order to investigate structural change and characteristics of calcined powders. The results of this work showed that the drying time of gel was reduced to about half in the presence of 0.1mol DMF compared with the absence of DCCA and also calcined powders were obtained without remarkable structural change despite of the addition of DCCA.

Three ester-type chitin derivatives were synthesized by reacting chitin with acetic anhydride, propionic anhydride and n-butyric anhydride to form acetyl chitin(AC), propionyl chitin(PC) and n-butyryl chitin(BC). Methanesulfonic acid was used as a catalyst. FT-IR spectra and solid state CP/MAS $^{13}C-NMR$ spectra of three chitin derivatives showed that the substituents were mainly incorporated in the $C_6$ position of chitin. The ester-type chititn derivatives were dissolved well in formic acid and swollen in aqueous acidic solution.

The effect of hydrophilic surface modification of low density polyethylene(LDPE) byt the plasma gas($O_2$, $N_2$, and $O_2/N_2$) was investigated from the point of view of the functionalities of the generated LDPE surfaces and the contact angle. By virtue of x-ray photoelectron spectra(XPS) and attenuated total reflectance(FT-IR ATR) analysis, the LDPE surfaces treated with plasma were generated with oxygen functionalities of carbonyl, carboxyl, and the like, nitrogen functionalities by nitrogen plasma and mixing of nitrogen and oxygen plasma treatment were identified with. It was found that nitrogen plasma treatment showed with minimum value at contact angle for rf-power and treatment time, we had obtained optimum condition for hydrophilic surface modification at composite parameter, [(W/FM)t] 520~550GJs/kg.
