Tungsten (W) is used as a facing material for nuclear fusion reactors, and it is used in conjunction with structural materials such as copper alloy (CuCrZr), graphite, or stainless steel. On the other hand, since tungsten is a material with a high melting point, a method that can be manufactured at a lower temperature is important. Therefore, in this study, tungsten, which is a facing material, was attempted to be manufactured using a pressure sintering method. Material properties of sintered tungsten materials were analyzed for each solvent using two types of solvents, acetone and polyethylene glycol. The sintered tungsten material using acetone as a solvent exhibited a hardness value of about 255 Hv, and when polyethylene glycol was used, a hardness value of about 200 Hv was shown. The flexural strength of the sintered tungsten material was 870 MPa and 307 MPa, respectively, when acetone and polyethylene glycol were used as solvents. The sintered tungsten material using acetone as a solvent caused densification between particles, which served as a factor of increasing the strength.

Equilibria equations, applicable to solvent of low dieletric constant, were derived for potentiometric neutralization titration. Effects of salt and solvent were studied in potentiometric neutralization titration using ethylenediamine as solvent. Good agreement was observed between theory and experimental results.

The applicability of the dipping, ultrasonic-assisted, heating methods to the extraction of useful components from Zostera marina was investigated. For the increase of the extraction yield of caffeic acid and rosmarinic acid from Zostera marina, ionic liquids and DES were used as additives in the extraction solvent. The optimum extraction conditions were found: dipping extraction, methanol as extraction solvent, 0.005 g of freeze-dried material powder, 5 mL methanol, 30 min and 0.5 g of DES-3 ($Et_4NCl$ and phenol) as additive. As a result, 0.19 mg/g of caffeic acid and 8.48 mg/g of rosmarinic acid were obtained. This method is simple and sensitive, and has been applied successfully to determine the component of caffeic acid and rosmarinic acid in Zostera marina and these results indicate that DES were used as additives is more suitable than traditional extraction for the extraction of useful components from Zostera marina.

High tenacity polyethylene(HTPE) fiber is one of the most important synthetic fibers which possesses outstanding properties such as low density, excellent surface hardness and scratch resistance, superior electrical insulation and low cost. In this study, we dyed high tenacity polyethylene filaments using three different solvent dyes based on log P calculations. We evaluated the dyeing characteristics of dyed high tenacity polyethylene filaments based on dyeing temperature, dyeing time and concentration of solvent dyes. We also analyzed the tensile strength and elongation properties of dyed high tenacity polyethylene filaments with various dyeing temperature and dyeing times. The optimized dyeing condition can be found at $120^{\circ}C$ for dyeing time of 1 hour with 4%(o.w.f.) of solvent dyes.

This study presents a conceptual design of vanillin production from Kraft lignin. Most of the existing Kraft lignin is used as low-quality boiler fuel or discarded as wastewater, and only 2% or less of lignin has been refined into high-quality products. We propose the process developed in this study to utilize discarded Kraft lignin. The existing vanillin production concept process consisted of alkali oxidation using NaOH, filtration, chromatography, and crystallization. Chromatography, which is difficult to commercialize, was changed to a solvent extraction process. The recovery rate of vanillin of the proposed solvent extraction process is 92.9%, and the purity is 99.5%, which is similar to the existing chromatography process. The reason why the solvent extraction process showing similar results to chromatography can replace the existing chromatography process was analyzed.

The copolymer membranes, poly(vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene) (PVdF-HFP) were prepared by phase inversion method using as an additive with N,N-dimethylformamid as a solvent. The pores are generated during the solvent and non-solvent exchange process in the coagulation bath filled with non-solvent (distilled water). The highest porosity of the membrane was 60%. The surface and cross-section of the membranes was observed with a scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The mechanical property of the membrane was determined by using an universal testing machine (UTM). Tensile strength of measured membranes is presented the maximum 6.57 MPa at 30 wt% of PVdF-HFP.

The polymer-polymer interaction parameter, x 23t, of the styrene-butadiene polymer (SBR) and ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer (EPDM) was investigated by observing the phase behavior of the ternary system of SBR/EPDM/solvent. The solvent used in this study was benzene acting as a good solvent for SBR but as a poor solvent for EPDM. Ternary solutions with various concentrations and mixing ratios of the two component polymers were separated into two phases by temperature change The cloud point curves (CPC) showed that the differerence of solvent affinities toward each polymer and the repulsive interaction between two polymers considerably affect the shape of CPC near 15℃. In the temperature range of 5℃ ~ 25℃, incompatible behaviours arised from both the difference of mixing ratios and concentration were clearly observed. Also the phase separation temperature greatly influenced on the composition of each separated phase. The calculated x 23t values from Flory-Huggins theory were in the range of 0.6301 ~ 1.0775, which suggest that the SBR/EPDM systems are incompatible.

In horseradish peroxidase-catalyzing polymerization of phenol under the water/dioxane solvent system, the optimal concentration of hydrogen peroxide was found to be 10 mmol/I. Feeding of hydrogen peroxide at its optimal concentration improved the polymerization performance by reducing reaction time and increasing molecular weights. Monomer conversions and the molecular weights of the enzymatically produced polymer were in the ranges of 83.1~94.2$%$ and 58000~68000, respectively.

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and solvent swelling technique have been applied for identifying physical transition temperatures in the macromolecular structure of coals. The transition processes seem to be associated with physical relaxation of the coal structure and are irreversible processes. In Pittsburgh No. 8 high volatile bituminous (hvb) coat one physical transition was noted at 250-30$0^{\circ}C$ (at 8$^{\circ}C$/min) without any significant accompanying weight loss. Coals of higher rank than high volatile bituminous, i.e., Upper Freeport medium volatile bituminous (mvb) and Pocahontas No.3 low volatile bituminous (lvb) coals, exhibit structural relaxation just before the major thermal decomposition process and a sharp increase in solvent swellability accompanies this relaxation. In the case of both the Pittsburgh No.8 and the Upper Freeport coat structural relaxations at around 36$0^{\circ}C$ seem to coincide with release of "guest molecules".les".uot;.

A novel prepurification method was developed aiming at increasing yield and purity, also reducing solvent usage for purification of paclitaxel. The use of a micelle and precipitation in the prepurification process allows for rapid separation of paclitaxel from interfering compounds and dramatically reduces solvent usage compared to alternative methodologies. The prepurification process serves to minimize the size and complexity of the HPLC operations for paclitaxel purification. The process is readily scalable to a pilot plant and eventually to a production environment where multikilogram quantities of material are expected to be produced. As much as possible, the process has been optimized to minimize solvent usage, complexity, and operating costs.
