In the chemical industry, fires and explosions constantly occur due to runaway reactions during the production of various chemical products. To prevent this, much research has been conducted, and the possibility of runaway reactions for each substance is reviewed and interlocking devices are installed to prepare for adverse reactions to prepare for fires and explosions. However, despite legal and technical safety measures, accidents due to runaway reactions still occur every year. Accordingly, in this study, based on cases of fire and explosion accidents in styrene monomer reactors, the discharge capacity during runaway reactions was examined through experiments and graphs. Unlike the commonly calculated fire equation, in the case of a runaway reaction where pressure and temperature increase rapidly, discharge is made in two phases rather than a single phase, so the size of the rupture disk must also increase, and the orientation must be adjusted before the rupture disk is installed at the top of the pressure vessel. It was found that position adjustment was necessary.

The controlled Ti(CO2H5)4 hydrolysis reactions for the synthesis of Spherical Monodispersed Titania powders are described. Increasing the concentration of TEOT and the molar ratio of water to TEOT in alcohol solution decrease the reaction time and the particle size. The reaction time is delalyed by increasing the chain length and the number of carbon branches of alcohol as a solvent. The prepared powders with an average diameter of 0.8$\mu$ and the spherical monodispersed transfer to Rutile phase at 55$0^{\circ}C$.

This investigation includes nitridation phenomena of silicon powder compacts in air. Nitridation reaction condition has been provided with using silicon nitride bed and active carbon additive. Reaction products are Oxynitride, $\alpha$-Si3N4, and $\beta$-Si3N4, Oxynitride(Si2N2O) phase in formed at outer surface layer ofsilicon powder compacts. $\alpha$-Si3N4, and $\beta$-Si3N4 are formed at inner region of powder compacts. Microstructural observation indicates that nitridation mechanism in this work is the same as conventional nitridation mechanism nitrogen gas.

A model peptide, N-carbobenzoxy-L-phenylalanyl-L-phenylalanine methyl ester, was synthersized with free and immobilized thermolysin in a microaqueous system. The model peptide was formed mostly during the initial phase of the reaction. The yields of the compound with free and immobilized thermolysin after 4hr of reaction were 77.8 and 71.2, respectively.

The condensation of several aromatic/heteroaromatic aldehydes with 2-aminothiophenol catalyzed by silica sulfuric acid under microwave irradiation afforded 2-arylbenzothiazoles in high yields and short reaction times under solvent-free conditions. The major advantages of the present method are good yields, ecofriendly, reusable catalyst, mild and solvent-free reaction conditions.

The phase-transfer reagent (PTC), ethyl tri-n-octylammonium bromide (ETABr), strongly catalyzes the reaction of p-nitrophenyldiphenylphosphinate (p-NPDPIN) with benzimidazole (BI) and its anion (BI-). In ETABr solutions, the dephosphorylation reactions exhibit higer than first order kinetics with respect to the nucleophile, BI, and ETABr, suggesting that reactions are occuring in small aggregates of the three species including the substrate, whereas the reaction of p-NPDPIN with OH- is not catalyzed by ETABr. This behavior for the drastic rate-enhancement of the dephosphorylation is refered as 'aggregation complex model' for reactions of hydrophobic organic phosphinates with benzimidazole in hydrophobic quarternary ammonium salt solutions.

Day and night sampling for gas and particle phases PAHs were carried out in Seoul to characterize gas and particle phases PAHs concentrations in day and night times. There was no significant difference between day and night time for particle phase PAHs concentrations and phase distribution of PAHs, while, gas phase PAHs concentrations in daytime were about 1/2 of nighttime concentrations in both summer and winter due to photochemical reaction of gas phase PAHs during daytime. A high fraction of cancer risk for PAHs was attributed to particle phase PAHs and the excess cancer risk in winter was higher than in summer. The excess cancer risk level of total(gas+particle) PAHs in summer was partially observed when both gas and particle phase PAHs concentrations were considered as risk assessment. Based on the diagnostic ratios and factor analysis of PAHs concentrations, combustion(coal and natural gas) and vehicular emission might be the most significant contributors of PAHs and major factors for determining of PAHs concentration were different between day and night times.

Lead-free (1-x)$(Na_{0.5}K_{0.5})NbO_3-xLiNbO_3$, i.e., NKN-LNx (x=0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 mol) was prepared using the conventional solid state reaction method. The effects of LN mixing on the ferroelectric properties of NKN-LNx ceramics were studied using a dielectric constant and P-E (Polarization-electric field) measurements. Ferroelectricity was observed in the composition for x approximately varying between 0.0 and 0.4. Minimum remanent polarization $2P_r=5C/cm^2$ was achieved in the composition for x = 0.2. The ferroelectric phase transition temperature $T_C$ increased with increasing LN content. The ferroelectric phase transition of NKN-LNx ($x{\geq}0.1$) is a second-order phase transition, and that of NKN-LNx ($x{\leq}0.2$) is a first-order phase transition. These results indicate that the ferroelectric phase transition temperature of NKN-LNx change from that of second-order to weak first-order phase transition according to the LN content.

In this study, reaction model and reactions rate accelerated by o-iodosobenzoate ion(IB$^{\ominus}$) on hydrolysis reaction of p-nitrophenyl valate(NPV) using ethyl tri-octyl ammonium mesylate(ETAMs) for quaternary ammonium salts, the phase transfer catalysis(PTC) reagent, were investigated. The effect of IB$^{\ominus}$ on hydrolysis reaction rate constant of NPV was weak without ETAMs solutions. Otherwise, in ETAMs solutions, the hydrolysis reactions exhibit higher first order kinetics with respect to the nucleophile, IB$^{\ominus}$, and ETAMs, suggesting that reactions are occurring in small aggregates of the three species including the substrate(NPV), whereas the reaction of NPV with OH$^{\ominus}$ is not catalyzed by ETAMs. Different concentrations of NPV were tested to measure the change of rate constants to investigate the effect of NPV as substrate and the results showed that the effect was weak. This means the reaction would be the first order kinetics with respect to the nucleophile. This behavior for the drastic rate-enhancement of the hydrolysis is referred as 'Aggregation complex model' for reaction of hydrophobic organic ester with o-iodosobenzoate ion(IB$^{\ominus}$) in hydrophobic quarternary ammonium salt(ETAMs) solutions.
