UV-induced graft polymerization of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) to a polypropylene (PP) membrane was carried out in the vapor phase with benzophenone (BP) as a photoinitiator. Attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were utilized to characterize the copolymer. The degree of grafting increased with increasing reaction time, increased UV irradiation source intensity, and increased immersion concentration of the BP solution. The optimum synthetic condition for the PP-g-GMA membrane was obtained with a reaction time of 2 hrs, a UV irradiation source intensity of 450 W, and an immersion concentration of the BP solution of 0.5 mol/L. The pure water flux decreased upon increasing the degree of grafting and increasing the amount of diethylamino functional group introduced. The analysis of AFM and SEM images shows that the graft chains and diethylamino groups of PP-g-GMA grew on the PP membrane surface, resulting in a change in surface morphology.

In order to determine the position and the content of fatty acids sttached to glycerides and the migration degree of fatty acids in the migration reaction, fish oil was hydroyzed with lipolase-100T which was derived from Aspergillus oryzae. The content of fatty acids in the glyceride mixture was analyzed and compared with that of fish oil. The amounts of fatty acid in a 2-position and the migration degree of the fatty acid in 2,3-DG (diglyceride) and 2-MG (monolyceride) were carefully calculated. The results showed that approximately 95% (w/w) of DHA (docosahexanoic acid) and 65% of EPA(eicosapentaenoic acid) were attached to the 2-position of glycerides in fish oil. Approximately 87% (w/w) of DHA and 75% of EPA remained in 2,3-DG, and 88% of DHA and 65% of EPA in 2-MG were not involved in the migration reaction.

Effects of passive film quality by chemical passivation and solution flow on the corrosion behavior of 304 stainless steel in HCl solution were investigated using a coloration indicator, and by corrosion weight loss, electrochemical polarization and element dissolution measurements. A high redness degree suggests a low passive-film integrity for 304 stainless steel following air exposure, while the minimum redness degree for the samples after chemical passivation suggests a high passive-film integrity. In the static condition, samples subjected to air exposure exhibited a high corrosion rate and preferential dissolution of Fe. Chemical passivation inhibited the corrosion rate due to the intrinsically high structural integrity of the passive film and high concentrations of Cr-rich oxides and hydroxide. Solution flow accelerated corrosion by promoting both the anodic dissolution reaction and the cathodic reaction. Solution flow also altered the preferential dissolution to fast uniform dissolution of metal elements.

Acid-catalysts were used to accelerate the liquefaction of wood with phenol. Sulfuric acid was quite excellent as a acid-catalyst of liquefaction of wood. It's proper dose was 3% of oven-dried weight of wood to get the 10% of target degree of residue, when the reaction time was 2 hours. The liquefaction of wood catalyzed with sulfuric acid was easily carried out at low temperature of 140$^{\circ}C$, but the degrees of residue decreased gradually with the increase of reaction temperature. The behaviors of liquefaction of oak and radiata pine were nearly same.

This research aimed to investigate the influence of high-volume mineral admixtures (MAs), i.e., fly ash and slag, on the hydration characteristics and microstructures of cement pastes. Degree of cement hydration was quantified by the loss-on-ignition technique and degree of pozzolanic reaction was determined by a selective dissolution method. The influence of MAs on the pore structure of paste was measured by mercury intrusion porosimetry. The results showed that the hydration properties of the blended pastes were a function of water to binder ratio, cement replacement level by MAs, and curing age. Pastes containing fly ash exhibited strongly reduced early strength, especially for mix with 45% fly ash. Moreover, at a similar cement replacement level, slag incorporated cement paste showed higher degrees of cement hydration and pozzolanic reaction than that of fly ash incorporated cement paste. Thus, the present study demonstrates that high substitution rates of slag for cement result in better effects on the short- and long-term hydration properties of cement pastes.

We have demonstrated that textured $Al_2O_3-mullite-SiC$ nanocomposites can be fabricated by slip casting followed by partial oxidation - reaction sintering of mixed suspensions of $Al_2O_3$ and SiC powders in a high magnetic field. The sintered density was changed by the degree of oxidation at 1200C and 1300C. The degree of orientation of alumina in the nanocomposite was examined on the basis of the X-ray diffraction patterns and scanning electron micrographs. It is confirmed that alumina-oriented nanocomposites were fabricated. The three-point bending strength at room temperature was observed for the nanocomposites.

Polypropylene nonwoven fabrics were grafted with acrylic acid by a preirradiation method by using electron beam accelerator. The effect of irradiation dose, storage time, concentration of acrylic acid, reaction temperature, reaction time and Mohr's salt concentration on the degree of grafting were investigated in detail. The grafted Polypropylene nonwoven fabrics were characterized using IR spectroscopy and SEM. The results showed that the degree of grafting increased with increasing absorbed dose and the Mohr's salt in the acrylic acid solution promoted grafting efficiency.

The use of O-carbamoyloximes as photobase generators was investigated. $\alpha$-Meth-ylbenzilydeneamino phenylcarbamate(2a) and $\alpha$-methyl benzilydeneamino cyclohexylcarbamate(2b) were prepared by the reaction of phenyl or cyclohexyl isocyanates with acetophenone oxime , respectively. Aniline, phenylhydrazine and N, N'-diphenylhydrazine were detected in thephotolysis of 2a and cyclohexylamine and cyclohexylhydrazine in the photolysis of 2b. A monomer having pendant carbamoyloxyimino groups (BGM) was prepared by the reaction fo methancryloyloxyethyl iocyanate with acetophenone oxime, and copolymerized with styrene. The BGM copolymer films turned insoluble on UV irradiation, and the degree of insolubilizationwas increased by post-baking. The photocrosslinking was thought to be due to coupling of resulting pendant aminyl radicals, and the thermal crosslinking was due to association of resulting amino and hydrazino groups by hydrogen bonding. The introduction of epoxy groups into polymer increased the degree of thermal crosslinking by post-baking.

Nano- and microstructured indium nitride crystals were synthesized by the reaction of indium oxide ($In_2O_3$) powder and its pellet with ammonia in the temperature range 580-700 ${^{\circ}C}$. The degree of nitridation of $In_2O_3$ to InN was very sensitive to the nitridation temperature. The formation of zero- to three-dimensional structured InN crystals demonstrated that $In_2O_3$ is nitridated to InN via two dominant parallel routes (solid ($In_2O_3$)-to-solid (InN) and gas ($In_2O$)-to-solid (InN)). The growth of InN crystals with such various morphologies was explained by the vapor-solid (VS) mechanism where the degree of supersaturation of In vapor determines the growth morphology and the vapor was mainly by the reaction of $In_2O$ with ammonia and partially by sublimation of solid InN. The pellet method was proven to be useful to obtain homogeneous InN nanowires.
