Eco-friendly processing using enzymes has been focused in textile industry in order to reduce environmental pollutions. This paper was suggested to hydrolyze non-cellulose, such as fats and waxes in cotton fabrics by lipase treatment. Enzymatic treatment conditions were controlled according to pH, temperature, enzyme concentration, and treatment time. The physical properties of the lipase-treated cotton fabrics were evaluated by measuring weight loss, moisture regain and dyeing properties. The surface morphology of lipase-treated cotton fabrics were observed by SEM. As a result, the optimum conditions for the lipase treatment were at pH 4.2, temperature 50$^{\circ}C$, concentration 50%, and treatment time 90 minutes. Calcium chloride and Triton X-100 were effective auxiliaries in lipase treatment.

Alterations in the serum and urine potassium were studied in twenty patients who underwent open heart surgery in National Medical Center during the period from Jan.1978 to June 1978. There were twelve cases congenital heart disease and eight acquired heart disease. Rigg-Kyvsgaad mark IV roller pump and Polystan bubble oxygenator were used in all patients. Hemodilution was carried out by priming the oxygenator with Hartmann`s solution. Measurements were made of the serum electrolyte, gas analysis and twenty four hour urine electrolytes. During the bypass, the serum potassium decreased Significantly from 4.2?.47 to 3.6?. 72 mEq. per liter. [p<0.05] Fifty seven miliequivalant of potassium chloride were added during operation-urine potassium was higher in the diuretic group than in the non diuretic group. Plasma potassium level in the diuretic group was more significantly reduced than nondiuretic group. In this series large amount of urine potassium loss was noted on the day of operation, the first and second post operative day.

Salt attack and freezing & thawing test, one of the combined deterioration tests was performed to explore the mechanism of concrete structure deterioration under marine environment. Simple submerging test was proceeded to draw out its diffusion factor with salt water at the same time. Some of the mechanisms were driven with using three types of cements and four kinds of salt water concentrations. $\circ$ TBC was more durable than OPC or SRC for freezing and thawing action $\circ$ The higher chloride concentration of salt water was, the faster relative dynamic elastic modulus decreased and the higher the loss of weight was. $\circ$ The diffusion factor of TBC was smaller than those of TBC or SRC at simple submergence of concrete specimens into salt water.

The effect of humidity on the aging process of hydrous aluminum oxide prepared by the reaction of aluminum chloride and sodium bicarbonate solution at pH 7.8, which was then kept in various atmosphere under relative humidity at 37.deg. was observed by the measurements of acid consuming capacity, X-ray diffraction and IR absorption. The humidity was one of the important factors influencing the aging process of hydrous aluminum oxide during storage. The higer the humidity, the more was accelerated age, crystalize and loss in acid reactivity. Depending on the humidity, the aging product was different, especially, in the case of up to the relative humidity of 72%, it forming bayerite. On the other hand, the hydrous aluminum oxide aged below the relative humidity of 50% was still amorphous even after 120 days storage. When hydrous aluminum oxide was aged under higher humidity, definite IR absorption bands develop as the hydroxys become part of an ordered structure, and it showed their characteristic absorption band around 1630 and 1060 cm$^{-1}$.

Air stable nanoparticles were prepared from cobalt sulphate using tetra butyl ammonium bromide as surfactant and sodium borohydride as reductant at room temperature. The cobalt nanocolloids in aqueous medium were found to be efficient catalysts for the degradation of toxic organic dyes. Our present study involves degradation of Methylene Blue and Rhodamine-B using cobalt nanoparticles and easy recovery of the catalyst from the system. The recovered nanoparticles could be recycled several times without loss of catalytic activity. Palladium nanoparticles prepared from palladium chloride and the same surfactant were found to degrade the organic dyes effectively but lose their catalytic activity after recovery. The cause of dye colour discharge by nanocolloids has been assigned based on our experimental findings.

The effect of zinc oxide as an inhibitor for the corrosion of steel in concrete environment was studied by weight loss measurements, potential-time behaviour and anodic polarization technique. The salient features of the investigation were: in 100% OPC extracts, the passivity of steel was readily destroyed, however extracts containing various concentration of zinc oxide, the passivity of steel was maintained even in the presence of 30,000 ppm of chloride. Alkalinity of concrete was maintained by the addition of zinc oxide. The efficiency of the inhibitor was found to increase with increasing inhibitor concentration. Addition of zinc oxide in the range 3 to 4% by weight of cement was sufficient to protect the rebars.

In this study, fragility curves of continuous buried pipelines subjected to transverse PGD (permanent ground deformation) due to liquefaction are proposed. For the waterworks system, continuos buried pipelines made of ductile iron, poly ethylene, and poly vinyl chloride are analyzed and fragility curves are drawn. Fragility curves are based on the repetitive analyses results and formulated with the dominant factors of behaviour of buried pipeline. With the use of fragility curves, engineers can estimate the status of damage of buried pipeline without overall knowledge of relevant features. Especially, fragility curves proposed in this study will act as a major module of earthquake loss estimation method. Moreover, critical value of magnitude and width of transverse PGD (by which the full damage status of buried pipelines are induced) are estimated. With the use of regression curves of these values, pre evaluation of seismic safety of buried pipelines located within liquefaction hazardous region will be possible.

The ring expansion of 1,3-thiazolidines 4 derived from ${\beta}$-ketoacid derivatives to the corresponding dihydro-1,4-thiazines 1 by using the action of chlorine on 4 has been achieved. In the chlorinolysis unisolable sulfenyl chlorides 5 may be formed from chlorosulfonium ions 11 by ${\beta}$-elimination involving carbonyl activated methylene hydrogens. Addition of sulfenyl chloride to the internal double bond appears to form probable thiiranium ions 14, which in turn gave 1 with loss of acidic proton. Imminium ions 15 could be hydrolyzed easily to give enol 8. As a side reaction, dihydrothiazine that was formed was further chlorinated to produce dichlorides 16 which were rearranged readily to the chloromethyl compounds 10.

Several aromatic optically active polyamides (PA)s were synthesized from 5-(2-phthalimidiylpropanoylamino)isophthalic acid with various aromatic diamines via direct polycondensation with triphenyl phosphite and pyridine in the presence of calcium chloride and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone under microwave irradiation and conventional heating conditions. Under the optimized conditions, the reaction mixture was irradiated for 2 min. with a 100% irradiation power (900 W). The resulting polymers were obtained in high yield and moderate inherent viscosity ranging from 0.35 to 0.60 dL/g. All synthesized polymers showed excellent solubility in amide-type solvents. Thermogravimetric analysis revealed a 10% weight loss temperature and char yield at $600^{\circ}C$ in a nitrogen atmosphere of > $350^{\circ}C$ and > 58%, respectively, which suggests that the resulting PAs have good thermal stability.

Internally plasticized PVC was prepared via chemical reaction of azide PVC and alkynyl group containing castor oil methyl ester. The chemical structure of alkynyl group containing castor oil methyl ester and internally plasticized PVC was characterized with FT-IR and $^1H$ NMR. Properties of internally plasticized PVC, including thermal stability, tensile tests and resistance to extraction in different solvents, was investigated. The results showed that alkynyl group containing castor oil methyl ester, as internal plasticizer of PVC, not only decreased the $T_g$ of PVC from $84.6^{\circ}C$ to $41.6^{\circ}C$ efficiently, but also presented no plasticizer loss in five different solvents. The tensile tests showed that elongation at break and tensile strength of internally plasticized PVC was 353.8% and 18.1 MPa. The internally plasticized PVC has potential application in replacing the traditional PVC material in PVC products with high durability.
