우리에게 익숙한 폴리에스터나 나일론(폴리아마이드)은 2개 이상의 단위체를 결합하여 만든 고분화 화합물이며 이들을 만드는 과정을 중합반응이라고 한다. 예를 들면 폴리에스터의 경우, PTA(Purified Telephtal Acid)와 Ethylene Glycol을 약 $280^\circC$의 고온과 0.4torr 정도의 진공에서 합성해 만들어 진다. 이 반응에 필요한 진공 조건을 유도하기 위해 Ejector가 필요한데 우리나라의 화학 섬유 공장에서는 주로 증기를 이용한 Ejector를 사용하고 있다.

Anionic water dispersible copolyesters were synthesized by the polycon-densation of dimethyl isophathalate/5-sodium sulfo dimethyl isophathalate with ethylene glycol/diethylene glycol. Structrual analyses such as NMR, Irm WAXD analyses were done and copolyesters were found to be correctly synthesized. Relation between feed ratio and composition ratio of EG/DEG in copolyesters was confirmed by NMR analysis. Solubility test was done to find out optimum conditon of DMS feed ration of 10 mol% in dimethyl esters. Water resistance of copolyesters decreased with the increase of DMS or DEG molar feed ratio.

Polyurethane microcapsules containing functional oil (citronella oil) were successfully prepared by conventional interfacial polymerization of tolulene 2,4-diisocyanate (TDI) and ethylene glycol (EG) and characterized by Fourier transform (FT-IR) spectroscopy, Ultraviolet spectroscopy, particle size analysis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Tile effects of polymerization variables, such as surfactant concentration and agitation speed, on the particle size and particle size distribution were investigated. FT-IR spectroscopic data showed that citronella oil was successfully encapsulated in the microcapsule. Thermogravimetric analysis data showed that the microcapsule was thermally stable up to $220^{\circ}C$. The controlled release of the citronella oil present in the microcapsule core in a methanol medium was demonstrated by ultraviolet spectroscopy showing that the amount of released citronella oil was increased with increasing time. It was observed that the amount of released citronella oil was increased with increasing stirring speed and emulsifier concentration in the rnicrocapsule preparation step. Polyurethane microcapsules containing citronella oil showed excellent anti-moth property.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the embryonic development ability and the appearance of blastocysts of bovine in vitro fertilized oocytes cultured in different culture media, and also to evaluate survival rate after thawing of frozen embryos by using 1.5 or 1.8M ethylene glycol(EG) with sucrose or trehalose. Fertilized oocytes were divided into three groups; i ) monolayer of cumulus /granulosa cell prepared by TGM 199+5% calf serum(TGM199), ii)GRlaa+5% CS, iii)SOF+5% CS, and they were cultured after insemination for 9 days, at 39˚C, under 5% $CO_2$ in air, but SOF+5% CS was cultured at 39˚C, under 5% 02, 5% GO2, 99% N2. Blastocysts derived from GRlaa + 5% CS on day 7~8 after insemination were frozen by using 1.5M EG or 1.8M EG with/without 0.2M sucrose or O.1M trehalose. The development rate of blastocysts on day 7 after insemination in SOF+5% CS was significant higher than in TCM199 or CR1aa(P<0.05). The appearance rate of blastocysts on day 7-8 after insemination was higher than in TCM199, when fertilized oocytes were cultured in GRlas or SOF. The survival rate of frozen blastocysts after thawing tended to increase, when blastocysts were frozen by using 1.8M EG with 0.2M sucrose or O.1M trehalose. These results indicated that SOF or CRlaa media with amino acids was superior to TCM199 with monolayer in terms of blastocyst development in culturing of in vitro fertilized bovine nocytes, and sucrose or trehalose was supposed to prevent embryos from the freezing shock.

A method for the depolymerization of polycarbonate waste by glycolysis using ethylene glycol without catalyst was explored in order to get the monomer bisphenol A (BPA). The effect of operation variables such as reaction time, reaction temperature, EG/PC weight ratio and the kinetic of glycolysis were studied. It was found that the polymerization reaction has two different activation energies depending on the reaction temperature. A drop in activation energy with temperature indicates that the reaction mechanism has shifted from one of a succession of elementary steps to another in the series. The maximum yield of BPA of 95.6% was achieved at reaction temperature $220^{\circ}C$ for 85min with EG/PC weight ratio 4.

This study was performed to find out the optimal kind of additive and concentration of ethylene glycol (EG) as the cryoprotectant on the D-shaped larvae of arkshell, Scapharca broughtonii. The larvae in straws was carried in the programed freezer set uo at 0$^{\circ}C$, frozen to -12$^{\circ}C$ by the freezing rate of -1$^{\circ}C$/min, held for 10 minutes, seeded at -12$^{\circ}C$, finally refrozen to -35$^{\circ}C$ by the freezing rate of -1$^{\circ}C$/min and then directly plunged into liquid nitrogen. The survival of larvae frozen in 1.0 M and 2.0 M ethylene glycol added with 0.5 M sucrose were high (50.5 ${\pm}$ 1.3% and 51.9 ${\pm}$ 1.7%, respectively) in the early D-shaped larvae cryopreserved in 1 M and 2 M ethylene glycol diluted with 0.2 M and 0.5 M fructose, glucose and sucrose. In the late D-shaped larvae were cryopreserved according to five concentrations of ethylene glycol added with 0.5 M sucrose, the survival of larvae frozen in 2.0 M ethylene glycol was the highest as 51.9 ${\pm}$ 1.7%. The morphological differences in cells between unfrozen and frozen-thawed D-shaped larvae were not found by the scanning and transmission electron microscopy.

We assessed the toxicity of cryoprotectant agents (CPAs) to gametophytic thalli of red alga Porphyra yezoensis at room temperature. The CPAs used were: dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ethylene glycol (EG), glycerol (GC), 1,2-butanediol (1,2-BD), 1,3-butanediol (1,3-BD), 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BD), 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD) and propylene glycol (PG). CPA concentrations of 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, and 50% were employed with 30 or 60 s immersion. The toxicity of the eight CPAs to gametophytic thalli of P. yezoensis was in the order: 1,3-BD < DMSO ${\approx}$ 2,3-BD ${\approx}$ PG ${\approx}$ EG < GC < 1,3-PD ${\approx}$ 1,2-BD. All thalli were more sensitive to high CPA concentrations, and most (>75%) thalli survived exposure to 10-25% CPA for 60 s. These data will facilitate selection of the optimal cryoprotectant concentration for cryopreservation of P. yezoensis thalli.

An experiment was performed to obtain cryopreservation techniques of Pacific cod Gadus macrocephalus sperm. Milt were cryopreservation using five cryoprotectant demethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ethylene glycol (EG), glycerol, methanol and propylene glycol (PG) with marine fish ringer's solution (MFRS) as diluent. Milt were cryopreserved each experimental methods like cryoprotectants (10% and 20%), equilibration time (3, 5 and 10 min) and freezing protocols (liquid nitrogen vapor above 3, 8 and 12 cm). Post-thaw sperm survival rate revealed the highest in 10% PG with optimum methods of equilibration time (3 min) and freezing protocol (liquid nitrogen vapor above 8 cm) about 21.3±1.8%. Hatching rate of fertilization eggs using fresh and cryopreserved sperm were no significantly different.

The aim of this research was to investigate different factors, including cryoprotective agents (CPAs), diluents, dilution ratios, equilibrium times, freezing rates, and thawing methods to optimize cryopreservation protocols for large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea). The parameters evaluated were sperm motility, sperm activity index (SAI), survival rate, and DNA damage. Different types of CPAs, such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), propylene glycol (PG), ethylene glycol (EG), methanol, and glycerol, were tested for sperm preservation. The highest motility, SAI, and survival rate were observed when EG was used. Different diluents such as Stein's solution, Hank's balanced salt solution, marine fish Ringer's solution, artificial seminal plasma (ASP) of small yellow croaker, and Cortland solution were investigated. The highest post-thaw motility was observed upon using ASP as the diluent. Different concentrations of EG were then mixed with ASP to identify the optimal EG concentration. Experimental results showed that the motility (70.33 ± 1.20%), SAI (5), and survival rate (78.30 ± 0.42%) of post-thaw sperm were optimum when 10% EG and ASP were used as the CPA and diluent of cryopreservation, respectively. Post-thaw sperm motility was high at equilibration times below 150 s and at an optimum dilution ratio of 1:1 (sperm: CPA + diluent) and was not significantly different compared with fresh sperm motility. The freezing rate was found to be slow below -10℃/min. The thawing temperature of 45℃ was identified as ideal. The percentage of tail DNA in post-thaw sperm at 10% EG and ASP was also investigated and was found to have more significant DNA damage than that in fresh sperm but significantly lower damage than that in post-thaw sperm at EG concentrations of 5%, 15%, and 20% (p < 0.05). The cryopreservation protocols obtained in this study will be useful in large yellow croaker hatcheries.

This article presents an experimental study on the effect of temperature and solid volume fraction of nanoparticles on the dynamic viscosity for the CuO/EG-water nanofluid. Nanoparticles with diameter of 40 nm are used in the present study to prepare nanofluid by two-step method. A "Brookfield viscometer" has been used to measure the dynamic viscosity of nanofluid with solid volume fraction up to 2% at the temperature range between 20 to $60^{\circ}C$. The findings have shown that dynamic viscosity of nanofluid increases with increasing particle volume fraction and decreasing temperature. Nine different correlations are developed on experimental data point to predict the relative dynamic viscosity of nanofluid at different temperatures. To make sure of accuracy of the proposed correlations, margin of deviation is presented at the end of this study. The results show excellent agreement between experimental data and those obtained through the correlations.
