The complex formation from Cu(Ⅱ) ion and 1,3-bis(tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamino)propane (bistrispropane) in aqueous solution has been studied potentiometrically and spectrophotometrically. Bistrispropane (btp) coordinates to Cu(Ⅱ) as multidentate. In the btp (L) complex CuL2+, two of the hydroxyl oxygen atoms as well as the amine nitrogens of the ligand are coordinated. In neutral and weakly acidic media, one of the coordinated hydroxyl groups is deprotonated. In basic media, an additional hydroxyl group undergoes deprotonation. The equilibrium constants for the formation of CuL2+, CuLH-1+, and CuLH-2 have been determined. The nature of the coordinate bonds has been deduced from the potentiometric data and the spectra of these complexes.

Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), isophoron diisocyanate (IPDI), and 1,1,1-tris(hydroxymethyl)propane (THMP) were used to synthesize polyurethane microgel. The formulation to form a microgel was determined, and the shape and the properties of the microgel were characterized with SEM and particle size analyzer. The microgel was only formed when PEG was used more than THMP exceedingly. Therefore, it is believed that PEG plays an important role in the synthesis of the microgel. During the formation of the microgel, the viscosity of the microgel solution was decreased. Molecular weights of the PEGs which were used in this research were 2,000, 6,000, and 10,000. The microgel synthesized with PEG 6000 showed the best property in comparison with others. The size of the microgel measured by particle size analyzer were about 130~230 nm.

In acid-catalyzed acetal cyclization of long aliphatic aldehydes($R=n-C_7H_{15}$ ; $n-C_9H_{19}$ ; $n-C_{11}H_{23}$) with 1,1,1-tris(hydroxymethyl)propane, 2-alkyl-5-hydroxymethyl-5-ethyl-1,3-dioxanes were obtained. The final products, sodium 2-alkyl-5-(sulfonatedpropylethermethyl)-5-ethyl-1,3-propanesultion in the presence of sodium hydride. These compounds were a new group of destructible surfactants which were readily hydrolyzed and oxidized in natural water reservoirs. Physical properties of these new compounds involved some surface properties such as Krafft point(Kp), critical micelle concentration(cmc), surface tension of aqueous solutions near cmc(${\gamma}_{min}$), foaming power, emulsion power and hydrolysis properties were determined. The destructible surfactants containing 1,3-dioxane ring were synthesized to about $85{\pm}5.5%$ yield. The cmc values of the compounds by ring method were assumed to $0.5{\sim}5.0{\times}10^{-3}mol/L$ range and surface tensions at cmc were $29.5{\sim}33.0dyne/cm$ respectively at $25^{\circ}C$. The foaming power and foam stability were $170{\sim}230mm$ and $52{\sim}135mm$ respectively at $1{\times}10^{-2}mol/L$, foam was occurred rarely below $1{\times}10^{-3}mol/L$. The emulsion property of liquid paraffin was better than that of soybean oil. For hydrolysis property with ph and time, these compounds were decomposed within about 200minutes at $ph1{\sim}2$. Hopefully these compounds are expected to be a good O/W emulsifier that have decomposability in acid and may be used in the process which do not need foaming.

We have studied the migration behavior of single-stranded DNA using capillary gel electrophoresis under various conditions. It was found that optimum electric fields should be less than 150 V/cm for the good tradeoff between the separation time and the resolution. It seems that the gel matrix with the combination of different polymer average molecular weights is important to extend the maximum readable DNA bases. The total gel concentration less than 3.1% in the mixed gel system showed good separation efficiency up to 600 bases. The best result was obtained with the poy(ethylene)oxide (PEO) gel concentration of 1.2% of Mr 8,000,000 and 1.8% of Mr 600,000. We observed that the capillary length between 50 cm to 100 cm (effective length) should be employed for the optimization between the total DNA migration time and the maximum readable length. A trizma base-boric acid-ethlyenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) (TBE) buffer was commonly used for DNA sequencing, but we found that 3-[tris(hydroxymethyl)methyl amino]-1-propane sulfonic acid (TAPS) buffer worked as well for the single-stranded DNA separation. Especially, TAPS buffer showed a good resolution for very short DNA bases (1 to 30 bases).
