We tried to investigate the effects of substituent position, temperature, and additives such as NaCl and n-butanol on the solubilizations of cresol isomers by tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (TTAB), using the UV-Vis spectrophotometric method. The measured solubilization constants (K_s) values for each cresol isomer increased in the order o-cresolo and ∆H^o values for the solubilizations of cresols were all negative values but the ∆S^o values were all positive values within the measured ranges. The values of ∆G^o increased also with increasing the concentration of n-butanol but decreased with increasing the concentration of NaCl. From these facts, we could conclude that both the enthalpy and entropy changes contribute together for the solubilizations of cresols isomers by cationic surfactant of TTAB and they are solubilized in the polar palisade region or at the surface of micelle.

최근 유전자 공학의 급속한 발전으로 인하여 유전자 조작을 통한 생화합물의 대량 생산, 세포배양에 의한 생화학제품(아미노산, 단백질, 핵산)의 생산이 크게 진보하고 있으나, 이에 비해 생화학제품을 효율적으로 분리 및 정제하는 기술은 상대적으로 발전하지 못했다. 생화합물의 분리 방법은 전통적으로 유기용매에 의한 침전법, 염석법, 탈염법, 크로마토그래피법, 전기영동법, 흡착제를 이용한 흡착법등을 사용하는데 이 방법들은 소규모 및 회분식 공정으로 이루어져 대형화에 따른 분리 공정의 효율이 감소하는 어려움이 있었다. 따라서 연속공정으로서 대형화가 쉽고, 효율적인 생물분리공정의 개발이 요구되고 있다.

The critical micelle concentration (CMC) values of the mixed surfactant systems and the solubilization conatant (K_s) values of 4-ethylaniline in those solutions were measured and analyzed by the UV-Vis method. As a result, the mixed surfactant systems of TTAB/LSB and TTAB/TX-100 did not deviate significantly from ideal mixed micellization. However, the mixed systems of SDS/LSB and SDS/TX-100 showed great negative deviations from ideal mixed model. These differences showed that the intensity of the interaction between two components in the mixed micelle was different for each mixed system and that these differences greatly influenced the solubilization of 4-ethylaniline by a mixed surfactant system. Among pure surfactants, an anionic surfactant such as SDS showed a greater K_s value than other ionic surfactants, and the K_s value by each surfactant system decreased in the order of SDS≫TTAB≧LSB>TX-100. In addition, the K_s values of all the mixed surfactant systems were higher than those of the pure surfactants constituting the mixed systems.

The interaction of dichlorophenol isomers with the micellar system of TTAB (tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide) was studied by the UV/Vis spectrophotometric method. The solubilization constants ($K_s$) of dichlorophenol isomers into the micellar system have been measured with the change of temperature and the various thermodynamic parameters have been calculated and analyzed from these changes. The results show that the values of ${\Delta}G^{\circ}_s$ and ${\Delta}H^{\circ}_s$ are all negative within the measured temperature range. The effects of additives (n-butanol and NaCl) on the solubilization of dichlorophenol isomers have been also measured. There was a great change on the values of $K_s$ and CMC simultaneously with these additives. From these changes we can postulate the solubilization sites of each isomers in the micellar system of TTAB.

The surfactant self-diffusion coefficients of mixed micellar solutions of ionic and nonionic surfactants have been measured by the NMR pulsed field gradient spin echo(FT-PGSE) method. In addition, the line widths of $^1H$ NMR signal have been monitored. The system investgated are $C_{12}EO_5/SDS/D_2O$, $C_{12}EO_5/DTAC/D_2O$, and $C_{12}EO_8/SDS/D_2O$. In the sample series, the molar ratios of $D_2O$ to surfactant(ionic+nonionic) were kept constant while the surfactant mixing ratio was varied. For the $C_{12}EO_5$ system, the surfactant self-diffusion coefficient indicates minimum when the surfactant mixing ratio is about 20% ionic surfactant. The observed decrease in self-diffusion coefficients as nonionic surfactant was replaced by ionic surfactant is interpreted to mainly be due to an increased micelle-micelle repulsion. The increase in self-diffusion coefficients occurring at higher fraction of ionic surfactant is shown to be due to a decrease in micelle size. For the $C_{12}EO_8$ system, the effect of the surfactant mixing ratio is much weaker which can be understood by considering the molecular geometry and large headgroup area. The proton NMR line widths correlate well with the self-diffusion coefficients and broadening of the alkyl chain methylene signals is found when the self-diffusion coefficients is low.

Hemicellulose, consisteing of pentose as xylose and mannose, is usable as high octane fuels and heavy oil additives if depolymerized to monomer unit. In this study, thermochemical degradation by pyrolysis-liquefaction of hemicellulose, the effects of reaction temperature, conversion yield, degradation properties and degradation products were investigated. Experiments were performed in a tube reactor by varying reaction temperatures from $200^{\circ}C$ to $400^{\circ}C$ at 40 min of reaction time. The liquid products from pyrolysis-liquefaction of hemicellulose contained various kinds of ketones. Ketones, as 2,3-dimethyl-2-cyclopenten-1-one, 2,3,4-trimethyl-2-cyclopentan-1-one, and 2-methyl-cyclopentanone, could be used as high-octane-value fuels and fuel additives. However, phenols are not valuable as fuels. Combustion heating value of liquid products obtained from thermochemical conversion processes of hemicellulose was in the range of 6,680~7,170 cal/g. After 40 min of reaction at $400^{\circ}C$ in pyrolysis-liquefaction of hemicellulose, the energy yield and mass yield were as high as 72.2% and 41.2 g oil/100 g raw material, respectively.

PGA is formed in a route of CO2 fixation of RuBP catalyzed by RuBPCase, followed by reduction of the PGA by NADH to GAP This reduction is enhanced in an anionic micellar solution(SDS), in which NADH is distributed in the aqueous and the micellar pseudophases in a given ratio. This micellar bounded NADH reacts to PGA, and in higher micellar concentration than $1.25{\times}10^{-2}M$, most of NADH is oxidized to NAD+ by PGA. On the other hand, in the solutions of the positive ionic(CTABr), zwitter ionic(Chaps) and nonionic (Brij and Triton X-100) micelles, the reactions are also enhanced and the concentrations of NADH reach minima with micellar concentrations. Such minima are typical of micellar catalyzed bimolecular reactions, and the fall in concentrations of the reductant followed by a gradual increase is charataristic of reactions of hydrophobic substrates: that is, the reductions of PGA by NADH are sharply enhanced in a range of the lower micellar concentrations, and NADH amounts in ca. $1.25-2.50{\times}10^{-3}M$ micellar solutions are reached to minima, followed by gradual increases of the reductant concentration.

The interactions of 4-chlorobenzoic acid with the micellar system of various cationic, nonionic, and mixed surfactant systems were studied by the UV/Vis spectrophotometric method. The solubilization constants ($K_s$) of 4-chlorobenzoic acid into those micellar systems have been measured at various temperatures and various thermodynamic parameters for the solubilization of 4-chlorobenzoic acid have been calculated and analyzed from those changes. The results show that the values of ${\Delta}G^o_s$ are all negative within the measured temperature range and that the values of ${\Delta}H^o_s$ and ${\Delta}S^o_s$ are all positive. The effects of alkyl-group's length of surfactant molecules on the solubilization of 4-chlorobenzoic acid have been also measured. The values of $K_s$ were dependent simultaneously on the alkyl-group's length and the kind of head-group in surfactant molecules. From these changes we can postulate the solubilization site and the degree of interaction of 4-chlorobenzoic acid with the micellar systems.

An experimental design method was used to optimize the synthesis of gamma-alumina with a superior thermal stability using the reverse micelle method. First, twelve experimental conditions were derived by using the mixture design method to optimize conditions for the ratio of surfactant, water and oil, which are main factors in the synthesis process. When the particles synthesized by reverse micelle method were calcined at $900^{\circ}C$ under the designed condition, they all had gamma-alumina crystal structure although there were differences in particle sizes. The coefficient of determination of the second-order regression model using the derived experimental results was 93.68% and the P-value was 0.002. The synthesis conditions forgamma-alumina with various particle sizes were presented using surface and contour lines. As a result, it was calculated that the smallest particle size of about 2.8 nm was synthesized when the ratio of surfactant/water/oil was 0.3450/0.0729/0.5821.

Bovine serum albumin(BSA) was solubilized into the reverse micellar phase consisting of sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate(AOT) and isooctane using the phase transfer method. Of particular interest in this study were the effects of pH and the added salt type and concentration on the solubilization efficiency. When univalent or divalent salts such as KCl, NaCl, $MgCl_2$, or $CaCl_2$ were added to the aqueous phase at a concentration of 0.1 M, maximum solubilization efficiency was attained at a pH ranging from 5 to 7, depending on the added salt type. Increased salt concentration up to 1 M resulted in an increased solubilization efficiency for $CaCl_2$ and NaCl, while the addition of $MgCl_2$ beyond 0.1 M showed an anomalous trend. Further, it was noteworthy that too a large extent the protein precipitated in the interface between the organic and aqueous phases at lower pHs and lower salt concentrations. The size of the reverse micelle water pool was estimated by measuring the molar ratio of the surfactant to the water, $W_0$. Irrespective of pH in the aqueous phase, the resulting value of $W_0$ was almost constant, eg., 20 for $MgCl_2$ . However, the value of $W_0$ decreased with increased salt concentration in the cases of KCl and $CaCl_2$.
