The critical micelle concentration (CMC) and the counterion binding constant (${\beta}$) at the CMC of the mixtures of Dodecylpyridinium chloride (DPC) and Tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (TTAB) have been determined from the concentration dependence of electrical conductance at various temperatures from $4^{\circ}C$ to $36^{\circ}C$. Thermodynamic parameters (${\Delta}C_p$, ${\Delta}G^o_m$, ${\Delta}H^o_m$ and ${\Delta}S^o_m$), associated with the micelle formation of DPC/TTAB mixtures, have been estimated from the temperature dependence of CMC and ${\beta}$values. The measured values of ${\Delta}C_p$ and ${\Delta}G^o_m$ are negative but the values of ${\Delta}S^o_m$ are positive in the whole measured temperature region. The values of ${\Delta}H^o_m$ are positive at low temperature region and negative at high temperature region. The results show that all of the thermodynamic parameters are dependent on temperature and mole fraction of DPC(${\alpha}_DPC$).

This paper describes the effects of biodiesel blended fuel on the engine combustion and emission characteristics in a four cylinder CRDI(Common-rail direct injection) diesel engine. In this work, the biodiesel-diesel blended fuel(20% of biodiesel and 80% of ULSD(ultra low sulfur diesel) by volume ratio, BD20) and ULSD fuel are used under the various injection pressures and engine speeds. The experimental results of BD20 and ULSD fuel show that NOx emissions were increased and soot emissions were decreased with the increase of injection pressure. In particular, NOx emissions were slightly increased for the BD20 fuel, however, soot emissions were significantly reduced compared to the ULSD fuel. When the engine speed is increased from 1000rpm to 2000rpm, NOx emissions are decreased at all tested conditions, and soot emissions are largely increased at lower injection pressure.

Reactive ion etching (RIE) characteristics of InP in the $Cl_2$/ CH_4/H_2$ discharges was investigated, as a function of the rf power, substrate temperature and gas composition. It was observed that the etch rate increased as the rf power, sample temperature and/or $Cl_2$ gas concentration increased. Etch rate of about 0.9$\mu\textrm{m}$/min was obtained at the optimum condition of 150W rf power, $180^{\circ}C$ substrate temperature and $10Cl_2$ /$5CH_4/85H_2$ gas ratio. Polymer formation was completely suppressed by adding $Cl_2$ to the $CH_4$ /$H_2$ discharges.

The kinetics of 2-anthracenesulfonyl chloride in methanol-water, ethanol-water, acetone-water and acetonitrile-water has been studied by electroconductometric method. For media in which water has the same mole fraction, the rate was greater in protic solvent than in dipolar aprotic solvent and it was greater consistently in methanol-water than in ethanol-water over the whole range of solvent composition investigated, while the two rates in acetone-water and acetonitrile-water inverted at about 0.9 of mole fraction of water. Both m value, susceptibility of rate to the ionizing power and n value, solvent participation number in the transition state were much smaller in protic solvent. These values and the activation parameters show that solvolysis of 2-anthracenesulfonyl chloride proceeds by $ S_N2$ mechanism.

A 50 kW polyurethane fire in a compartment of 4 m ${\times}$ 1 m ${\times}$ 1.5m with large openings similar to a subway station was simulated by a large eddy simulation to investigate the fire and smoke control. The NIST FDS, which employed a mixture fraction combustion model and a finite volume method for radiation, was utilized. Distribution of temperature and smoke particles was compared with in the lower and upper corridors for three different smoke control systems, ventilation, purge, and extraction, starting in 5 sec from the ignition of the fire. For the given geometries, the ventilation system showed the best smoke removal rate and lowest temperature distribution in the both corridors. It was confirmed that the purge system is not recommended for a subway station since the smoke removal rate of the purge system was worse than that without a smoke control system.

The apparent molal volumes(${\phi}_v$) of the homologous salts $RNH_3Cl$, where R varies from methyl-($CH_{3^-}$) to n-butyl-(n-$C_4H_{9^-}$) in a series of methanol-water mixtures have been determined at 30$^{\circ}C$ by means of a float method to fifth decimal places down to 0.01 m. The values of ${\phi}_r$ extrapolated to infinite dilution give partial molal volumes $\bar{V}^{\circ}$which varies considerably in accordance with the solvent composition. that is, mole fraction of methanol. The experimental results are discussed in terms of the varying size and charge effect, hydrophobic nature of the solute species, and also the additivity relationship between successive homologous and the structure of the binary solvent. The results indicate that at 0.1 mole fraction methanol the enhanced structuredness of water cause a minimum in the partial molal volumes of cations $\bar{V}^{\circ}_+$, while at 0.4 mole fraction the solvent structure is such that the free volume is a minimum but the effect of electrostriction is a maximum.

$TiO_2$ powders with rutile and brookite phases were synthesized through homogeneous precipitation of the aqueous $TiOCl_2$ solution, prepared from $TiCl_4$ and HCl solution, and their properties were characterized. Based on the analytical results appropriate molar ratios of ${Cl^-}_{total}:Ti^{+4}$ in precipitating solution for synthesis of pure rutile phase and a mixture of rutile and brookite phases were proposed. The volumetric proportion of brookite increased with increasing HCl concentration under a typical condition obtaining mixed phase of rutile and brookite. The brookite phase in the mixture was transformed to anatase phase by heat treatment at about $800^{\circ}C{\sim}850^{\circ}C$, and finally converted to rutile phase at $1000^{\circ}C$.

The values of water activity in the different concentrations of NaCl and sodium lactate were measured by hygrometer in the water-sorbitol systems. Interaction of NaCl and sodium lactate was evaluated by Raoult's law. The discrepancy between experimental and theoretical value by the Raoult's law was defined as interaction between water-sorbitol and added solutes in the systems. The changes of interacted water and solutes were observed in whole range of water activity. The value of interacted water (water: sorbitol=1 : 1.1241) obtained by added sodium lactate was found to be higher than sodium chloride. The amount of interacted solute reached maximum about Aw 0.87, while the interactions between added solute and sorbitol showed an increasing tendency below Aw 0.87.

To synthesize the Ti₃AlC₂ MAX phase, a crucial precursor for generating the two-dimensional material MXene, the use of Ti scrap as an initial material is an economically feasible approach. This study aims to optimize the synthesis conditions for the phase fraction of the Ti₃AlC₂ MAX phase utilizing Ti scrap as the Ti source. The deoxidation of Ti powders, prepared through the hydrogenation-dehydrogenation process from Ti scrap, was effectively accomplished using the deoxidation in solid-state (DOSS) process. The optimal synthesis conditions were established by blending DOSS-Ti, Al, and graphite powders with particle sizes ranging from 25 ~ 32 ㎛ in a molar ratio of 3:1.1:2. The resulting phase fractions were as follows: Ti₃AlC₂ at 97.25 wt.%, TiC at 0.93 wt.%, and Al₃Ti at 1.82 wt.%. Furthermore, the oxygen content of the Ti₃AlC₂ MAX powder, spanning from 25 ~ 45 ㎛, was measured at 4,210 ppm.

The NaA zeolite particles were dispersed in a poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) matrix to prepare a composite membrane. The nano sized zeolite particles of NaA were synthesized in the laboratory and the mean size was approximately 60 nm. Pervaporation characteristics such as a permeation flux and a separation factor were investigated using the membrane as a function of the feed concentration from 0.01 to 0.05 mole fraction and the weight % of NaA particles between 0 wt% and 5 wt% in the membrane. Also, the micro sized particles of $5{\mu}m$ were dispersed in the membrane for a comparison purpose. When the ethanol concentration in the feed solution was 0.01 mole fraction, the flux of water significantly increased from $600g/m^2/hr$ to $2000g/m^2/hr$ as the content of the nano NaA particles in the membrane increased from 0 wt% to 5 wt%, while the NaA particles improved the separation factor from 1.5 to 7.9. When the flux of water through the membrane containing nano sized particles was roughly 15% increased compared to the micro sized particles, whereas the separation factor of water was found to be approximately 5% increased. It can be said that the role of the nano sized NaA particles is quite important since both the flux and the separation factor are strongly affected.
