This work was focused on the synthesis and their catalytic performance on microporous materials having various pore types and dimensions in structures, such as the SAPO-34 and the SAPO-44 with CHA type, the SAPO-17 with ERI type of three dimensional structures, and the ZSM-23 with MTT type of one dimensional structure. Synthesized materials exhibited various acidities and the selectivities to olefin in methanol conversion. As a result, the order of their acid strength was as follows; SAPO-44>SAPO-34>SAPO-17>ZSM-5. On the other hand, the CHA type materials, such as SAPO-34 and SAPO-44, had high selectivity to light olefins(ethylene or propylene), and ZSM-23 with MTT typ of one dimensional structure showed high selectivity to paraffins over $\textrm{C}_{5}$~. This result is a proof that the structure in material had strong influence on catalytic performance. In addition, a surprising result is that the catalytic selectivity to ethylene enhanced on Ni-corporated materials compared with the non-corporated.

Fe/$Al_2O_3$ granules with various compositions were prepared by combining sol-gel with oil drop method for Fishcer-Tropsh reaction to produce light olefin from synthesis gas. The granules was characterized and employed as a catalyst in the reaction. The surface area of granules was decreased with increasing Fe concentration. Especially, granule with 1.5 of Al/Fe ratios showed the highest CO conversion. However, the olefin selectivity was hardly affected by Al/Fe ratio. K concentration of granule gave a significant effect on catalytic performance. Initial CO conversion and olefin selectivity were increased with K concentration. However, the catalyst with higher K concentration was deactivated rapidly.

The conversion of methanol to hydrocarbons has been studied over synthetic ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst having high silica to alumina ratio. The conversion products were olefins, paraffins, cycloparaffins, and aromatics, and the catalyst showed especially high selectivity toward the formation of aromatics. The catalyst showed the shape-selectivity and the size of molecules in the product was limited approximately to the size of 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene. Hydrogen form(HZSM-5) was more active, indicating reactions following the dehydration of methanol seemed to be mainly catalyzed by acid sites. Comparison of the reaction characteristics and acid site distribution of the ZSM-5 catalyst with those of mordenite and faujasite type catalysts suggests that cross-linked pore channel structure and the strong acidity of the ZSM-5 catalyst are primarily responsible for the selective formation of aromatics over this catalyst.

studies of olefin oxidation using Al(III)-porphyrin complexes as catalyst are investigated in CH2Cl2, in which NaClO is used as terminal oxidant. Porphyrins are TPP(5,10,15,20-Tetraphenylporphyrin) and (p-X)TPP(X=CH3O, CH3, F, Cl). Olefins are styrene and (p-X)styrene (X=CH3O, CH3, Cl, Br). The values of Km and Vmax are calculated from the Michaelis-Menten equation. According to the substituents of substrate and catalyst, kinetic parameters will be measured. Investigating the correlation between the Michaelis-Menten rate parameters and the substituent constants, we were able to analyze the influence on the changes of catalytic activity or the rate determining step during the process of the formation and the dissociation of the M-oxo-olefin.

Copolymerization of ethylene and ${\alpha}$-olefin using $rac-Et[Ind]_2ZrCl_2/MAO$ catalyst embedded onto polysty-rene was examined. The embedded catalyst was prepared by polymerizing a small amount of styrene with $rac-Et[Ind]_2ZrCl_2$. The catalytic activities of the embedded catalyst were higher than those of the homogeneous catalystregardless of comonomer type and the characteristic of the active sites of the embedded catalyst was not affected duringthe embedding process. Based on the DSC and NMR analyses of the produced copolymers, it was thought that theembedded catalyst had similar or slightly better comonomer incorporation ability. Furthermore, the copolymers produced by the embedded catalyst had higher bulk densities and better particle morphology than those by the homogeneous catalyst.

The synthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) with Cu catalysts was investigated in a semi-batch high-pressure reactor. DMC was synthesized via the direct oxidative carbonylation of carbon monoxide with oxygen in methanol. The corrosion rate was evaluated fie the weight change for SUS test pieces which had been added into the reactor. In order to reduce the corrosion rate without significantly losing DMC yield, various additives such as amines, olefins, and other metal salts were used. When 1-methylimidazole was used as an additive, 18.6% of DMC yield could be obtained without corrosion. If the amount of 1-methylimidazole was decreased, a high DMC yield (33.2%) could be obtained with a low corrosion rate (0.5%).

In this study, we synthesized poly(ethylene-ter-high ${\alpha}$-olefin-ter-p-methylstyrene) using Zr metallocene catalyst/borate type cocatalyst system. Various effects of the high ${\alpha}$-olefin (1-hexene, 1-octene, 1-decene, and 1-dodecene) were observed. The structure and composition of the terpolymers were characterized using $^{13}C$ NMR and $^1H$ NMR. Catalytic activity, polymer yield, molecular weight and molecular weight distribution were analyzed according to the chain length of high ${\alpha}$-olefin. We determined morphology, crystallinity and thermal properties of the terpolymers.

The isolated products from the reactions of $Rh(ClO_4)(CO)(PPh_3)_2$ (1) with CH_2$ = $CHCO_2C_2H_5$ (2) and trans-$CH_3CH$ = $CHCO_2C_2H_5$ (3) contain 80∼ 90% of $[Rh(CH_2 = CHCO_2C_2H_5)(CO)(PPh_3)_2]ClO_4$ (4) and [Rh(trans-$CH_3CH = CHCO_2C_2H_5(CO)(PPh_3)_2]ClO_4$ (5), respectively where 2 and 3 seem to be coordinated through the carbonyl oxygen. It has been found that complex 1 catalyzes the isomerization of $CH_2 = CH(CH_2)_8CO_2C_2H_5$ (6) to $CH_3(CH_2)_nCH = CH(CH_2)_{7-n}CO_2C_2H_5$ (n = 0∼7) under nitrogen at 25$^{\circ}C$. The isomerization of 6 is slower than that of $CH_2 = CH(CH_2)_9CH_3$ to $CH_3(CH_2)_nCH$ = $CH(CH_2)_{8-n}CH_3$ (n = 0∼8), which is understood in terms of the interactions between the carbonyl oxygen of 6 and the catalyst. It has been also observed that complex 1 catalyzes the hydrogenation of 2, 3, 6, trans-$C_6H_5CH = CHCO_2C_2H_5$ (7), $CH_3(CH_2)_7CH = CH(CH_2)_7CO_2C_2H_5$ (8) and $CH_2 = CH(CH_2)_9CH_3$ (9), and the isomerization (double bond migration) of 6 and 9 under hydrogen at 25$^{\circ}C$. The interactions between the carbonyl oxygen of the unsaturated esters and the catalyst affect the hydrogenation in such a way that the hydrogenation of the unsaturated esters becomes slower than that of simple olefins.

Effects of the post-acid treatment of SAPO-34 sample by hydrochloric acid were investigated to enhance the catalytic performance in DTO reaction. Uniformly sized SAPO-34 samples with cubic-like morphology were prepared by hydrothermal method using TEAOH and DEA as the structure directing agents. It was modified in terms of the HCl concentration and treating time. As a result, the total surface area and micropore volume for the well modified samples increased and the total acid site was somewhat decreased along with the erosion of the external surface. Especially, the catalytic lifetime and light olefins selectivity for acid treated SAPO-0.2 M (3 h) samples were considerably enhanced compared with those of untreated SAPO-34 samples. It indicates that the deactivation by coke formation proceeds mainly at the pore entrance on the external surface. Therefore, the acid treatment was confirmed to be a simple method which can significantly improve the catalytic performance by modifying the external surface of SAPO-34 catalyst.

This study effect of engine oils on regulated fuel economy and emissions including particulate matter (PM) to provide basic data for management of engine oil in vehicles. Three engine oils (Group III base oil, Group III genuine oil with additive package and synthetic oil with poly alpha olefins (PAOs)) were used in one gasoline, one LPG(liquefied petroleum gas) and two diesel vehicles. In the case of diesel vehicles, one is a diesel vehicle without DPF (diesel particulate filter) other is a diesel vehicle with DPF. In this study, the US EPA emission test cycle FTP-75, representing city driving, was used. HORIBA, PIERBURG, and AVL gas analyzers were used to measure the fuel economy and regulated emissions such as CO, NOx, and THC. The number of PM was measured using a PPS (pegasor particle sensor). And, the shape of PMs was analyzed by SEM (scanning electron microscope). The effects of oil type on fuel economy, exhaust gas, and PM were not significant because engine oil consumption by evaporation and combustion in the cylinder is very tiny. Fuel and vehicle type were dominant factors in fuel economy and emissions. HC emission from gasoline vehicles was higher than that from other vehicles and NOx emission from diesel vehicles was higher than that from other vehicles. The number of PM was not affected by the engine oil, but by the driving pattern and fuel. The shapes of the PM, sampled from each vehicle using any test engine oil, were similar.
