In this paper, each section of an Electrolytic Tinning Line is mathematically modelled with the coupling effect accounted for. Based on the modelling, PI and feedforward controllers are designed for speed control or tension control of each section of the process line. It is shown through simulatios that the tension of the stip is controlled precisely along the entire line and the contituety of the process is insured when using the efficient control of loop towers.

Effects of processing variables and MAPP (maleic anhydride polypropylene) coupling agent on the properties of composite were discussed for turbulent-air-mixed woodfiber-polypropylenefiber composites. In this research, density, composition ratio, and mat moisture content were established as processing variables, and emulsified MAPP prepared by direct pressure method was incorporated as the coupling agent. And the turbulent air mixer, which was improved in function through alteration of our previous fiber mixer, was used to mix wood fibers and polypropylene fibers. At the addition level of 1% MAPP, based on oven-dried wood fiber weight, woodfiber-polypropylenefiber composites generally showed enhanced the physical and mechanical properties. And composites with low to medium densities of 0.6 to 0.8g/$cm^3$ greatly increased in these property values than with high densities of 1.0g/$cm^3$ or more by adding 1 % MAPP. Thus, MAPP addition was thought to be an effective way of enhancing properties for nonwoven web composites. At the mat moisture contents of 5 to 20%, however, the physical and mechanical properties were not enhanced by adding 1% MAPP. In the composites containing 15% polypropylene fibers, the lowest thickness swelling and water absorption values were observed at the 1% MAPP level. The addition of more than 1% MAPP had the adverse effect on the physical and mechanical properties of composites.

Indium-doped zinc oxide nanocrystals (IZO NCs), capped with stearic acid (SA) of different sizes, were synthesized using a hot injection method in a noncoordinating solvent 1-octadecene (ODE). The ligand exchange process was employed to modify the surface of IZO NCs by replacing the longer-chain ligand of stearic acid with the shorter-chain ligand of butylamine (BA). It should be noted that the ligand-exchange percentage was observed to be 75%. The change of particle size, morphology, and crystal structures were obtained using a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and X-ray diffraction pattern results. In our study, the 5 nm and 10 nm IZO NCs capped with stearic acid (SA-IZO) were ligand-exchanged with butylamine (BA), and were then spin-coated on a thermal oxide ($SiO_2$) gate insulator to fabricate a thin film transistor (TFT) device. The films were then annealed at various temperatures: $350^{\circ}C$, $400^{\circ}C$, $500^{\circ}C$, and $600^{\circ}C$. All samples showed semiconducting behavior and exhibited n-channel TFT. Curing temperature dependent on mobility was observed. Interestingly, mobility decreases with the increasing size of NCs from 5 to 10 nm. Miller-Abrahams hopping formalism was employed to explain the hopping mechanism insight our IZO NC films. By focusing on the effect of size, different curing temperatures, electron coupling, tunneling rate, and inter-NC separation, we found that the decrease in electron mobility for larger NCs was due to smaller electronic coupling.

Artificial coupling of one enzyme with another can provide an efficient means for the production of industrially important chemicals. Xylose reductase has been recently discovered to be useful in the reductive production of xylitol. However, a limitation of its in vitro or in vivo use is the regeneration of the cofactor NAD(P)H in the enzyme activity. In the present study, an efficient process for the production of xylitol from D-xylose was established by coupling two enzymes. A NADH-dependent xylose reductase (XR) from Pichia stipitis catalyzed the reduction of xylose with a stoichiometric consumption of NADH, and the resulting cofactor $NAD^+$ was continuously re-reduced by formate dehydrogenase (FDH) for regeneration. Using simple kinetic analyses as tools for process optimization, suitable conditions for the performance and yield of the coupled reaction were established. The optimal reaction temperature and pH were determined to be about $30^{\circ}C$ and 7.0, respectively. Formate, as a substrate of FDH, affected the yield and cofactor regeneration, and was, therefore, adjusted to a concentration of 20 mM. When the total activity of FDH was about 1.8-fold higher than that of XR, the performance was better than that by any other activity ratios. As expected, there were no distinct differences in the conversion yields of reactions, when supplied with the oxidized form $NAD^+$ instead of the reduced form NADH, as a starting cofactor for regeneration. Under these conditions, a complete conversion (>99%) could be readily obtained from a small-scale batch reaction.

It is desirable to perform nondestructive evaluation to assess material properties and part homogeneity because manufacturing of carbon/carbon (C/C) composites requires complicated and costly processes. In this work several ultrasonic techniques were applied to carbon/carbon composites for the evaluation of spatial variations in material properties that are attributable to the manufacturing process. In a large carbon/carbon composite manufactured by chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) method, the spatial variation of ultrasonic velocity was measured and found to be consistent with the densification behavior in CVI process in order to increase the density of C/C composites. Ultrasonic velocity and attenuation depend on a density variation of materials. Low frequency through-transmission scans based on both amplitude and time-of-flight of the ultrasonic pulse were used for mapping out the material property inhomogeneity These results were compared with that obtained by dry-coupling ultrasonics. Pulse-echo C-scans was used to image near-surface material property anomalies such as the placement of spacers between disks during CVI. Also, optical micrograph had been examined on the surface of C/C composites using a destructive way.

Swirl injection induces not only the increase in fuel regression rate but also the reduction of combustion pressure oscillation. This acts, in turn, to stabilize combustion process. Thus, this study primarily focuses on the change in flow structure in the main chamber by swirl injection. Then examining the change in flow structure was done to understand the physical process for stabilizing combustion. In the results, the application of swirl injection could suppress the generation of p' and q' in 500Hz band and could shift the phase difference and cross correlation. Further investigations with combustion visualization also show that the development of helical motion near surface region affects the small-sized vortex generation and shedding yielding combustion stabilization eventually.

A optical switch which on the LiNbO$_3$substrate is fabricated by using proton exchange method and self-alignet method. The annealing at 400[$^{\circ}C$] was carried out to control waveguide width and depth. A self-aligned method, which doesn\`t need the additional mask precesses, was applied to simplify the fabrication processes and to maximize efficiency of electric field application. The depths of the two annealed optical waveguides, which were measured by using ${\alpha}$-step, ware 1.435[K${\AA}$] and 1,380[K${\AA}$]. Using ${\alpha}$-step facility, we examined that the width of waveguides is increased from 5[$\mu\textrm{m}$] to 6.45[$\mu\textrm{m}$] and 6.3[$\mu\textrm{m}$] due to the annealing effects. The process of proton exchange was done at 400[$^{\circ}C$] for 60[min] and annealing process was done at 400[$^{\circ}C$] for 60[min]. The high speed optical modulator has very good figures of merits: the measured voltage of the input waveguide power is 3.5[V], the voltage of the coupling waveguide power is 3.9[mV], and -29.5[dB] crosstalk and 8[V] switching voltage were achieved.

This work is a fundamental study for applying hybrid process coupling adsorption with microfiltration to waste-water treatment. Phenol was separated by adsorption on powdered activated carbon, adsorbed phenol with activated carbon was separated by microfiltration. As the particle size in suspension increased, filtration resistance decreased, and effect of particle concentration on resistance was less pronounced. The rate of uptake was greatly dependent on the degree of phenol loading. For a smaller amounts of activated carbon, the change of permeate concentration before break point and phenol loading with time were steeper than in the case of large amounts. Permeate concentration before break point decreased with decreasing particle size, this could be due to the increase of outer surface of particle and film mass transfer coefficient.

A series of lithium chloride-imidazolium chloride (LiCl-[imidazolium]Cl) melts were prepared and their catalytic activities were evaluated for the coupling reactions of propylene oxide and CO2. At the constant mole of LiCl, the catalytic activities of LiCl-[imidazolium]Cl melts increased with increasing molar ratio of [imidazolium]Cl/LiCl up to 2, but thereafter decreased rapidly. The variation of alkyl groups on the imidazolium ring showed a negligible effect on the catalytic activity, but the number of alkyl groups present on the imidazolium cation exerts a pronounced effect. Catalysis and electrospray ionization tandem mass spectral analysis results of LiCl-[imidazolium]Cl melts imply that the activity of the melt is strongly related to the amount of LiCl2- generated from the melt.
