The causes of failure in the deketalization of rigid ${\beta}$-aminoketals were separately investigated by examining the deketalization of 3 ketals, 2-ethylenedioxy-l-acenaphthenylamine (2), N-(2-ethylenedioxy-l-acenaphthenyl)acetamide(13) and trimethyl-2-ethylenedioxy-1-acenaphthenylammonium iodide(14), and by examining the deketalization of non-rigid ${\beta}$-aminoketal, 2-amino-l-ethylenedioxyacetophenone(19) and non-rigid aliphatic acetals, dimethylaminoformaldehyde dimethylacetal (20) and 2-aminoactaldehyde dimethyl acetal(21). While compounds 2 and 14 were not able to be hydrolyzed in the various acidic conditions 13 was easily deketalized. The result indicated the importance of electrostatic repulsion in the possible dicationic intermediates as a factor of failure in the deketalization. The observations of easy deketalization of compounds 19, 20 and 21 indicated that the structural characters of rigid $\beta-aminoketals$ are also important factors in the hydrolysis of ${\beta}$-aminoketals.

Oryzalin is a herbicide that disrupts the arrangement of microtubules by binding to tubulin, thereby blocking the anisotropic growth of plant cells. Microtubules and microfilaments are cytoskeleton components that have been implicated in plant growth through their influence on the formation of cell walls. Microtubules also play roles in the sedimentation of amyloplasts in the root tip columella cells; this sedimentation is related to gravity sensing and results in downward root growth in the soil for absorption of water and minerals. However, the orientation of microtubules changes depending on the level of ethylene in plant cells. A recent study reported that oryzalin stimulated ethylene production via 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) synthase and ACC oxidase and caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of root growth and gravitropic responses. The aim of the present study was to investigate the possibility that oryzalin-induced inhibition might be recovered by the application of inhibitors of ethylene production, such as 10-4 M cobalt ions and 10-8 M aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG). The inhibition of root growth and gravitropic response was overcome by 10-20% by an 8 hr treatment with cobalt ions or AVG. These results suggest that ethylene levels could regulate root growth and gravitropic responses in Arabidopsis.

In this study, CNT functionalized with pyrrolidine ring via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction with various amino acid and aldehyde was synthesized. Metallocene was subsequently immobilized on the functionalized CNT and CNT/polyethylene composite was prepared via in-situ ethylene polymerization. The polymerization activities of metallocene supported on CNT functionalized with glycine and benzaldehyde (Gly+BA-CNT) were similar to those of metallocene supported on CNT functionalized with N-benzyloxycarbonylglycine and paraformaldehyde (Z-Gly+PFA-CNT) although its Zr content was lower than that of Z-Gly+PFA-CNT. In the case of metallocene supported on Z-Gly+PFA-CNT, the even distribution of active sites hindered the diffusion of ethylene monomer and cocatalyst MAO due to steric hindrance during ethylene polymerization. Compared to polyethylene produced from homogeneous metallocene catalysts, CNT/PE composites had a higher initial degradation temperature ($T_{onset}$) and maximum mass loss temperature ($T_{max}$). It suggests that pyrrolidine functionalized CNT is uniformly dispersed and strongly interacted with the PE matrix, enhancing the thermal stability of PE.

For the synthesis of polyurethane memory foam stabilizer with fine cells, hydrosilylation reaction with various polyalkyleneoxides and hydrogen functional group of polymethylhydrogensiloxane (D = 75, D' = 15) was conducted. Polyalkyleneoxides (PAO) used in this research were ethylene oxides or ethylene-co-propylene oxides with terminal groups of hydroxides or methyl groups. To analyze the molecular structures and molecular weights as well as the reaction yields (98%), NMR and GPC analysis were executed. Synthesized siloxane surfactants modified with polyalkylene (EO = 12 units) were applied to producing flexible polyurethane fine memory foams from 0.6 pphp to 2.0 pphp. By controlling the amount of the surfactant, physical characteristics, the polyurethane memory foam with cell size (minimum $0.868{\mu}m$), air flows (-78 KPa), and recovery times (8 sec) were achieved.

In order to investigate the effect of n-heptane mixing on PAH and soot formation, small amount of n-heptane has been mixed in counterflow ethylene diffusion flame. Laser-induced incandescene and laser-induced fluorescene techniques were employed to measure soot volume fraction and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon(PAH) concentration, respectively. Results showed that the mixing of n-heptane in ethylene diffusion flame produces more PAHs and soot than those of pure ethylene flame. However, signals of LIF for 20% n-heptane mixture flame were lower than that of pure ethylene flame. It can be considered that the enhancement of PAH and soot formation by the n-heptane mixing of ethylene can be explained by methyl($CH_3$) radical in the low temperature region. And it can be found that reaction rate of H radical for 10% n-heptane plays a crucial role for benzene formation.

Polyurethane specimens were mainly composed of polyol, MDI, silicone surfactant, and water. The effects of ethylene glycol on the cell size, forming magnification, cream time, gel time, take free time, final free rising height, and reactive temperature were investigated. The cyclopentane was used for PU foam as a physical blowing agent. The components were hand-mixed at about 5000 rpm within 4 seconds at room temperature. The mixtures with various ethylene glycol contents were foamed in the wood mold. When the index of isocyanate was fixed, as the amount of ethylene glycol increased, cell size and thermal conductivity were decreased by about 5.1% and 14%, respectively.

In this study, we numerically investigate the detonation characteristics (detonation velocity and pressure) of a hybrid ethylene-air and RDX mixture using two-phase model. Compared with detonation of pure ethylene-air mixture, the detonation of the hybrid ethylene-air and RDX mixture has higher pressure and stronger impulse because the hybrid mixture has additional chemical heat release of RDX particles. To validate the numerical results using two-phase model, we compare the experimental data which show changes of detonation pressure and velocity according to concentration of RDX particles.

Efficient stitching methods for the synthesis of Fr$\acute{e}$chet-type dendrimers with linear PEG units at a core were elaborated. The synthetic strategy involved an inexpensive 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction between an alkyne and an azide in the presence of Cu(I) species which is known as the best example of click chemistry. The linear core building blocks, two diazido-PEG units, were chosen to serve as the azide functionalities for dendrimer growth via click reactions with the alkyne-dendrons. These two building blocks were employed together with the alkyne-functionalized Fr$\acute{e}$chet-type dendrons in a convergent strategy to synthesize two kinds of Fr$\acute{e}$chet-type dendrimers with different linear core units.

The novel Schiff base hexadentate ligand, bis-(salicylaldehyde)-triethylentetramine (BSTT) and heptadentate ligand, bis-(salicylaldehyde)-tetraethylenpentamine(BSTP) were synthesized by the reaction of salicylaldehydes with triethylenetetramine and tetraethylenepentamine, having four and five nitrogen atoms, respectively. These liquid Schiff base ligands were become in form of the pale-yellow crystals in the specific pH 4.0 by adding acetic acid concentrated hydrochloric acid. The Cu(Ⅱ) complexes of the Schiff bases were synthesized by reaction of the Schiff base with Cu(Ⅱ) ion and their possible structures were proposed by several analytical data, and physical and chemical properties.

This paper presents a numerical investigation of deflagration to detonation transition (DDT) induced by shock wave and flame interaction in ethylene-air mixtures. Also shows the change of DDT triggering time by wall cooling effect. A model is consisted of the compressible reactive Navier-Stokes equations. And the effect of viscosity, thermal conduction, molecular diffusion, chemical reaction and wall effect are included. Using this model, the generation of hot spot by repeated shock and flame interaction, occurrence of detonation, and wall cooling effect of detonation confining boundaries are studied.
