The ion-exchange porous glasses were prepared by heat treating and subsequently acid treating the (95-y) $SiO_2$.$yB_2O_3$.$5Na_2O+xAl_2O_3$ glasses with y=55, 45, 35, 25. mole% and x=0, 2, 5, 9 mole% It was then investigated how the cation exchange capacity was affected by the phase separation in these glasses. For that matter such quantities as alkali extraction amount pore volume and specific surface area of the glasses were measured. The phase separation in these glasses was in general suppressed by the addition of $Al_2O_3$ maximally around the composition of 5 mole% $Al_2O_3$ This may be because the micro-phase separation prevailed in the glass of that composition over the macro-phase separation increasing thereby the specific surface area as well as the residual amount Al of after acid-treatment and accordingly the cation exchange capacity. The maximum values of the cation exchange capacity was observed to be about 150meq/100g for the glasses of (40-50) $SiO_2$ (55~45)$yB_2O_3$. $5Na_2O+5Al_2O_3$.

The present study was designed to investigate biosynthetic patterns of polysaccharides under catabolic repression and derepression in Saccharomyces uvarum. Correlation coefficients between polysaccharide synthesis and polyphosphate accumulation were examined, according to the culture phase and under various phosphate concentrations (free, limited, sufficient). During catabolic derepression, biosynthesis of glycogen was enhanced. rapidly and highly in the cells grown on minimal medium, compared with those grown on the complete medium. Acid soluble glycogen type was the main component of total glycogen and alkali soluble glycogen was synthesized in small amount, after 24 hr culture, at the time of almost exhaustion of sugar in the medium. Total glycogen was accumulated highly in proportion to the amount of phosphate added to the medium. It could be postulated that type 'C' isoenzyme among ALPase was directly or indirectly correlated with the glucan synthesis. Mannan synthesis indicated maximal amount at the early exponential phase and stationary phase, and also acid soluble sugars at the stationary phase. Correlation coefficient between the mannan synthesis and poly-p-'C' accumulation, and also between mannan synthesis and phospholipid content indicated 0.866 and 0.726, respectively.

For elucidation of various parameters' effects on the reactive extraction of citric acids, citric-acetic-lactic acid system with various carriers, diluents, and modifiers were investigated. Carries used were secondary amines, tertiary amines, and solvation extract. Dileunts were n-butylacetate, methoisobutylketon(MIBK), kerosine, and xylene. Modifiers were TBP and isodecanol. The effects of temperature and pH in aquous phase were studied, and equilibrium constants for the reactive extraction were obtained. The re-extraction was performed by alkali solutions such as NaOH, $Na_2CO_3$, and $K_2HPO_4$. Based on the experiment Di-isotridecylamine(secondary amine ) gave higher degree of extraction and more selective than other extractants tested for the extraction of citric acid. N-butylacetate and TBP showed heigher performance for a diluent and modifier, repetitively. The degree of extraction was getting better with decreasing the pH in the aquous phase and the temperature of extraction system. The degree of re-extraction was getting higher with decreasing basicity in the stripping phase and the system temperature, and with increasing the concentration of alkali solution.

Chlorella ellipsoidea cells were cultured in an iron, copper, zinc, manganese, molybdenum or boron-free medium. Biosynthetic activities of nucleic acids, protein and phospholipid in chlorella cells, which were growing in a microelement deficient medium were compared with those of the normal cells by measuring the contents of phosphate, amino acids or UV-absorbing substances in the various cell fractions. When the algae were grown in a molybdenum-free medium, the amounts of phosphate in the acid-soluble fraction of the cells increased, whereas the amounts of alkali-stable protein and RNA decreased compared with the normal cells showing that the synthesis of protein and RNA from the early products of photosynthesis was inhibited. When the algae were grown in a boron-free medium, amounts of alkali-labile protein and phospholipid of the cells decreased, while the amount of phosphate in acid-soluble fraction increased compared with the normal cells showing that the biosynthesis of protein and phospholipid from the early products of photosynthesis was retarded. In general, amounts of protein and RNA in the microelement deficient cells significantly decreased compared with those of the normal cells. Phosphate content in the acid-soluble fraction of the algal cell grown in an zinc, copper, molybdenum, or boron-free medium increased considerably, whereas that of the algal cell grown in an iron or manganese-free medium decreased remarkably compared with that of the control. It is considered, therefore, that molybdenum, zinc, copper and boron etc. play an important role in the biosyntbesis of macromolecule from acid-soluble phosphate compounds, in contrast to the principal action of iron and manganese on the photosynthetic process itself.

In order to improve resistant properties of water-borne acrylic pressure sensitive adhesives(PSAs) for automobiles, this study was carried out. Removable PSAs for automobiles were synthesized by emulsion polymerization of monomers, n-butyl acrylate(BA), n-butyl methacrylate(BMA), acrylonitrile(AN), acrylic acid(AA) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate(2-HEMA), and AA and 2-HEMA could act as functional monomers for crosslink. Emulsion polymerization was carried out in a semi-batch type reactor. Water resistance, heat resistance, acid resistance, alkali resistance and smoke resistance were examined. As a result, water resistance increased with the amount of BMA, however, the effect of BMA content on the water resistance was insignificant at a range of over 14 wt%. The water resistance also increased with the amount of functional monomers, AA and 2-HEMA. The prepared PSAs satisfied all the standard for automobiles except heat resistance. However, the heat resistance comes nearly up to the standard. Also, acid resistance, alkali resistance and smoke resistance of the prepared PSAs satisfied with the standard.

This study incorporates fine waste glass (GS) as a replacement for natural sand (NS) in ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) based alkali activated mortar (AAm). Tests were conducted on the AAm to determine the mechanical properties, apparent porosity and the durability based on its resistance to Na2SO4 5% and H2SO4 2% concentrated solutions. The study revealed that increasing GS up to 100 wt%, increased strength and decreased porosity. The lower porosity attained with the incorporation of GS, improved the resistance of mortar to Na2SO4 and thus increasing durability. However, the durability of mortar to H2SO4 solution was negatively impacted with the further reduction of porosity observed with increasing GS above 50 wt.% believed to be caused by the stress induced as a result of expansive reaction products created when the mortar reacted with acid.

The results of the water purification studies using water parsley (Oenanthe javanica) were obtained as follows. The removal rate of nutrient salts increased with longer plant growth periods. The results of this study use the assumption, log(T+1) = $K(C_0-C)^A$, based on Prakish's Theory. The initial concentration was calculated from experimental data. A and K are closely related to the initial concentration. It is possible to model the concentration of residual salts, as time goes by, if concentration is constant. It was observed that water parsley neutralizes acid and alkali substances promptly. The maximum suitable neutralization period is 48 hours. But water parsley withered up in strong acid and alkali solutions within a week. The removal efficiency of Cd progresses in 2 steps, which are unrelated to the initial concentration of Cd. The first part of the curve shows the concentration rapid rate of Cd removal, followed by a levelling off. The removal rate of $NO_x-N$ in the sample water tank containing 0.5 ppm Cd was between 50~80% but the removal rate was less than 20% for the higher concentration. On the other hand, increased amounts of $PO_4-P$ in the sample water tank from the third day on suspected that $PO_4-P$ was desorbed from the water parsley. The accumulation efficiency of Cd in plant was increased in proportion to the initial concentration of Cd. The accumulation phenomenon was observed in the tanks more than 50~100 times.

The Chlor-alkali (CA) membrane cell is a major electrolysis system to produce valued chemicals such as chlorine gas and sodium hydroxide. The CA membrane process has been attracted in the industries, since it has relatively low energy consumption when compared with other CA processes. The key component in CA process is perfluorinated sulfonic acid ionomer membranes, which provide ion-selectivity and barrier properties to produced gases. Unfortunately, there is limited information to determine which factors should be satisfied for CA applications. In this study, the influences of PFSA membranes on CA performances are disclosed. They include ion transport behaviors, gas evolution capability, and chemical/electrochemical resistances under CA operation conditions.

To investigate the effect of solution pH and particle size of Na-bentonite on swelling characteristics and relative hydraulic conductivity, four kinds of acids and two alkali were selected. The results showed that the swelling was decreased to half of the original Na-bentonite's swelling index. Also the decrease in SI was most distinctive in pH 3.5 of HCl. But changes of swelling index between initial and stabilized were minimal in alkali treatment, compared to the change by acid treatment. No flux was detected under atmospheric pressure although there was drastic decrease in swelling. However, leaching started after application of 1.5 bars of air-pressure equivalent to 15 m of water head.
