This treatise analyzed the risk of propylene transported by railroad through quantitative analysis. As a result of survey on propylene transportation route, Iksan station, Suncheon station and Jeonju station were selected as object regions those were expected to have high accident risks. This treatise deduced the scenario of accident and the occurrence rate in accordance with the type of accident possibly to be happening during propylene transportation through ETA( Event Tree Analysis), and expressed the level of personal, social risks after calculating the level of demage influencing over surroundings based on the evaluation for the expected accident damage through PHAST 6.53.

The reactivity ratios, melting temperature and polymer morphology in propylene/butene-1 and propylene/hexene-1 copolymerization reactions were studied by examining comonomer compositions of resulting polymers. The catalysts used here are different in their supports which are silica(catalyst I) and magnesium(catalyst II). As the content of comonomer(butene-1 and hexene-1) increased in the copolymer, the melting temperature of the copolymer decreased. The morphology of polymer was amorphous in the range of comonomer(butene-1) composition over 40% in the propylene/butene-1 copolymerization and comonomer(hexene-1) composition over 80% in the propylene/hexene-1 copolymerization. The reactivity ratios were obtained by the Fineman-Ross and Kelen-$T{\ddot{u}}d{\tilde{o}}s$ methods.

In this study, waterborne polyurethane was synthesized with polyester polyol, poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC), 4,4-dicyclohexylmethane diisocyanate ($H_{12}MDI$) and dimethylol propionic acid (DMPA) to improve the water resistance. The properties of the synthesized waterborne polyurethane using poly(propylene carbonate) (WPUP) was evaluated through FT-IR, GPC, DSC and UTM. The mechanical properties were increased with the increase in the amount of PPC. When the ratio of polyester polyol to poly(propylene carbonate) is 9:1, the highest water resistance was showed.

Ultrasonic velocities (u) for binary mixtures of propylene carbonate (PC) (1) with benzene and substituted benzenes (2) viz. benzene, ethylbenzene, o-xylene and p-xylene have been measured at 288.15-308.15 K over the entire range of composition. The experimental values of ultrasonic velocities (u) have been utilized to calculate isentropic compressibility ($K_s$), intermolecular free length ($L_f$), acoustic impedance (Z).

In process installations, chemicals operate at high temperature and high pressure. Propylene is used as a basic raw material for manufacturing synthetic materials in the petrochemical industry; However, it is a flammable substance and explosive in the gaseous state. Thus, caution is needed when handling propylene. To prevent explosions, an inert gas, carbon dioxide, was used and the changes in the extent of explosion due to changes in pressure and oxygen concentration at 25 ℃, 100 ℃, and 200 ℃ were measured. At constant temperature, the increase in explosive pressure and the rates of the explosive pressure were observed to rise as the pressure was augmented. Moreover, as the oxygen concentration decreased, the maximum explosive pressure decreased. At 25 ℃ and oxygen concentration of 21%, as the pressure increased from 1.0 barg to 2.5 bar, the gas deflagration index (K_g) increased significantly from 4.71 barg·m/s to 18.83 barg·m/s.

A gas chromatography/mass spectrometric assay method was developed for the determination of propylene oxide adduct, N-(3-hydroxypropyl)valine. Adduct was released from hemoglobin by alkaline hydrolysis and extract at pH 8 with ethyl ether. The dried extract was completely derivatized with N-Methyl-N-(trimethylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide (MSTFA)/TMS-I (100:3). The detection limits of the assay were 0.08 ng/g for N-(3-hydroxypropyl)valine based upon assayed hemoglobin of 0.1 g. The method was applied to the determination of propylene oxide adduct formed in young female Sprague-Dawley rats after treatment for 1, 2 and 3 weeks with 0.008 % propylene oxide via the drinking water. An adduct was detected by proposed procedure. The structure of the adduct could be assigned to N-(3-hydroxypropyl)valine.

The kinetics of the bulk polymerization of propylene sulfide initiated by o-sulfobenzoic anhydride were investigated, which proceeded by a zwitterionic mechanism.The instantaneous concentrations of monomer and initiator were determined by means of ir-and nmr-spectroscopy. The rate constant of propagation was found to be about three order of magnitude higher than that of initiation and this should be caused by a zwitterion mechanism.

The fast separation and determination of cefatrizine${\cdot}$propylene glycol and inmpurities - TACA: 7-amino-3-(1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)thiomethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid and 7-ACA; 7-amino cephalosporanic acid - was performed by the high poerformance liquid chromatography using octadecyl siland (ODS) column. Methanol and ammonium phosphate buffer [$0.03M(NH_4)_2\;HPO_4$, (pH 7.5)] was used analyze, as eluent. The experimental value of the contents of cefatrizine${\cdot}$propylene glycol and impurities agree with the theoretical value of those.

The stability and solubility of piroxicam in propylene glycol (PG), polyethylene glycol (PEC), and PG-water cosolvents have been studied by using high performance liquid chromatography. The degradation rate followed an apparent first-order kinetic and the reaction rate constants at 70, 80, and $90^{circ}C$ were determined. From these rate constants, the activation energy and the rate constant of piroxicam at $25^{circ}C$ in pure PG calculated by Arrhenius equation were 23.34 kcal/mole and $7.0\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;day^{-1}$, respectively. Both of PG and PEG increased the solubility of the drug, but PEG was more effective.

In order to use carbon dioxide, one of the green house gases, terpolymers have been synthesized from propylene oxide, cyclohexene oxide, and carbon dioxide with zinc glutarate as catalyst. The polymers have been investigated with FT-IR, $^1H$-NMR, DSC. The glass transition temperatures of terpolymers are dependendent upon mass ratio of the poly(alkylene carbonate by Fox equation.
