Dissolution characteristics of flurbiprofen solvent deposited on ${\alpha}-cyclodextrin$, ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$, lactose and corn starch were studied to evaluate the pharmaceutical aspects of solvent deposition method where drug was solvent deposited on the surface of excipients. In a solvent deposition system, the drug to excipient ratio and kind of excipient affect much on dissolution rates of flurbiprofen. The solvent deposition system formation was confirmed by scanning electron microscope. By increasing the amounts of matrix, it was possible to enhance the dissolution rate of flurbiprofen solvent deposition system. The amount of flurbiprofen dissolved from ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ deposition system (1:10) at 60 minutes was enhanced 6.5 times in water and 28 times in simulated gastric juice compared with flurbiprofen alone. Flurbiprofen solvent deposited system (1:10) enhanced dissolution rate greater than inclusion complex and dispersion system.

Hydrodynamic simulations of mesoscopic solvent have been performed by multi-particle collision algorithm in a real dimensional system without and with the random shifting of the grid. A systematic conversion of the dimensionless units to a real dimensional system was confirmed by jump rates of solvent particles. Speed distributions of solvent particles obtained from the simulations agreed very well with the Maxwell-Boltzmann distributions. Solvent viscosities obtained from the simulations and from the conversion of units are exactly the same which confirmed the correct conversion of the units once again. The calculation of the friction coefficient of a massive Brownian particle in a mesoscopic solvent as a function of Brownian particle diameter was examined as an example.

A dissolution characteristics of phenylbutazone deposited on Avicel and dibasic calcium phosphate by solvent deposition method were studied. The solvent deposition was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. Avicel was superior to dibasic calcium phosphate as excipient in dissolution rate. Total amount of phenylbutazone dissolved from Avicel deposition system at 30minutes were enhanced 1.2-1.6 times compared with physical mixtures of them. The dissolution rate of 10% solvent deposition system was highest and that of 75% solvent deposition system was lowest in Avicel system and dibasic calcium phosphate system. Dissolution profile of commercial products was dependent on manufacturing conditions and dissolution rate of 10% Avicel system was greater than that of commercial products.

To evaluate the pharmaceutical aspects of solvent deposition method where drug is solvent deposited on the surface of excipients, a study has been made on dissolution characteristics of indomethacin solvent deposited on lactose and potato starch. In a solvent deposition system, the drug-to-excipient ratio and kind of excipient effect much on dissolution rates of indomethacin. The experimental results are as follows: 1) Lactose was shown to be superior to potato starch as excipients in indomethacin solvent deposited. 2) Total amount of indomethacin dissolved from solvent deposition systems at 30 minutes were enhanced about 5 to 23 times compared with that of pure indomethacin. 3) Increased dissotion amount of indomethacin from the solvent deposition systems were observed to be alike in the systems where the drug-to-excipient weight ratios were 1 : 5, 1 : 7 and 1 : 10.

The N hyperfine coupling constants ($a_N$) of di-t-butyl nitroxide (DTBN) radicals in water-solvent system were measured with EPR spectroscopy. Various kinds of the solvents with different polarity such as acetone, dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), methanol, ethanol and 1-propanol were applied and studied. Equilibrium constants for the solvation equilibrium and the solvent parameters ($E_T$, molar transition energy) of various water-solvent system were obtained from the experimental results and are presented. The $a_N$ values were plotted as a function of mole fraction of the solvent. In case of water-DMSO, water-ethanol and water-1-propanol system, slight negative deviations from the straight line were observed. In water-acetone system, the absorption wavelength (${\lambda}$) due to ${\eta}{\rightarrow}{\pi}^{\ast}$ transition increased linearly with the increase of mole fraction of acetone. The relationship between $a_N$ of DTBN and ${\lambda}$ due to ${\eta}{\rightarrow}{\pi}^{\ast}$ transition in water-acetone and water-DMSO system was examined. It was found that the electronic structure of the nitroxide radicals is stablized from the fact that the N hyperfine coupling constants of DTBN radicals are greatly unaffected in the environment of water-solvent system.

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.

Effects of the physical properties of solvent system such as pH and polarity change by salt addition in solvent system were investigated by using high speed countercurrent chromatography apparatus (Model CCC-1000, Pharm-Tech Research Corp. USA). The changes of pH and interfacial tension in solvent system of high speed countercurrent chromatography did not significantly affect on retention of stationary phase, but induced remarkable changes in the partition coefficient of ginkgo flavonoids, kaempferol, quercetin and isorhamnetin. The partition coefficients of ginkgo flavonoid standard increase with an increased pH of solvent system and quercetin sharply increased at pH 10.0. Retention of stationary phase decreases with an increased concentration of KCl in butanol of solvent system. Interfacial tension between two phase in solvent system of hexane increases with an increased concentration of KCl. The polarity of solvent system significantly changes the partition coefficients of ginkgo flavonoid.

This study describes to analyze the characteristics for separation and recovery of both the dried particles and the purified solvent from the waste solvent through the vaporization process by the continuous and instantaneous vacuum drying system. The vacuum drying system for the waste solvents recovery consists of a feeding pump, a double pipe heat exchanger, a vacuum spray chamber, and a condenser. The vacuum drying system heats the waste solvent to the vapor in the double pipe heat exchanger and the expanded vapor is sprayed at the end of the tube. The vaporized solvent in the condenser are recovered. The particles in the waste solvent are separated and dried from the vapor in the vacuum spray chamber. Performance evaluation of the vacuum drying system was conducted using the mixture of the dried pigment particles and benzene or alkylbenzene as test samples. For the mixture of 10 wt% pigment particles an 90% benzene, the recovery efficiency of benzene was 88% with the purity of 99% and the recovery efficiency of dried particles was 94% with the moisture of 1.1 wt%. The size of pigment particles was decreased from $6.5\mu\textrm{m}$ to $5.6\mu\textrm{m}$ in diameter due to high speed spraying and dispersion in the vacuum drying system during drying process. Therefore, the vacuum drying system showed to be an effective method for separating particles and solvent in the waste solvent.

Solvent-free paint is sprayed from higher-pressure conditions, because the viscosity is large. The hydraulic actuator which can be operated under higher-pressure condition is required to spray solvent-free paints in painting process for the environmental protection. The purpose of this paper is to develop the hydraulic actuator under higher-pressure conditions for solvent-free paint spraying system. The hydraulic actuator consists of inner spool, outer spool and ball. The analysis of a structural stability was conducted by using ANSYS V11 under the design condition of upward and downward movement of spool. As a result, the maximum von-Mises stress applied on spool under 4mm displacement showed a value of 106MPa which was greater than the allowable stress of the spool with a value of 250MPa and a value of safety factor 3. This result suggested that the spool system be unstable under the design condition so that it was necessary for the spool system to be reinforced to secure the structural stability.

Electrochemical charateristics of activated carbon fiber cloth(ACFC) electrode were studied with propylene carbonate(PC), ${\gamma}$-butyrolactone(GBL) and N,N-dimethyl-formamide(DMF) as a solvent and tetraethylammoniumtetrafluoroborate(TEABF$_4$), tetraethylammoniumhexafluorophosphate(TEABF$_{6}$), tetrabutylammoniumtetrafluoroborate(TBABF$_4$) and tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate(TBAPF$_6$) as an electrolytes(active material). The concentrations of electrolytes were in the range of 0.2~1.2 N, the volume ratios of PC and DMF as a mixed solvent system, were 90：10, 80：20, 70：30, 60：40, 50：50, and 40：60 vol%. Electrochemical characteristics such as electric conductivity, internal resistance, and electric capacitance of fabricated unit cells were measured after the moisture of activated material was removed with molecular sieve. Electrochemical characteristics were better in mixed solvents system than in mono solvent system. The mono solvent system of 1.0 N electrolyte of GBL/TEABF$_4$ with activated carbon cloth electrodes showed better result but the mixed solvent system with PC and DMF/TEABF$_4$(50：50 vol%) and the concentration of 1.0 N electrolyte showed the best characteristics. Internal resistance was 3.47 $\Omega$ and specific capacitance was 19.1 F/g respectively.y.
