The crystallization characteristics of metallocene linear low density polyethylene was investigated by small angle light scattering and comparison was made with Ziegler-Natta linear low density polyethylene. The special efforts were made to find out the effects of branching number, length of branching and co-monomer content of m-LLDPE on the crystallization behavior of m-LLDPE. It was found that m-LLDPE has longer induction time to start crystallization from the amorphous state than that of conventional LLDPE with similar branching number, but the rate of crystallization seems not change much in both LLDPEs. Lowering of branching number in m-LLDPE resulted in both increasing of rate of crystallization and reducing induction time to crystallize. In general, the maximum size of spherulites of m-LLDPE is bigger than that of conventional LLDPE.

The poly silicon thin films were prepared by solid phase crystallization at 600$^{\circ}C$ of amorphous silicon films deposited on Corning 7059 glass and (100) silicon wafer with thermally grown SiO$_2$substrate by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition with varying rf power, deposition temperature, total flow rate. Crystallization time, microstructure, absorption coefficients were investigated by RAMAN, XRD analysis and UV transmittance measurement. Crystallization time of amorphous silicon films was increased with increasing rf power, decreasing deposition temperature and decreasing total flow rate.

The crystallization characteristics of metallocene linear low density polyethylene (m-LLDPE)/linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) blends were investigated. The effect of blending on the induction time for crystallization, spherulites growth rate, and maximum size of spherulites was mainly considered in this study. The formation of separate crystal which is well known crystallization behavior in LLDPE/LDPE blend was not found in m-LLDPE/LLDPE blends. The blending m-LLDPE to LLDPE caused the dramatic decrease in the induction time of m-LLDPE/LLDPE blends but it seems that the blend composition shows less effect on the induction time. Lower branching number in m-LLDPE resulted in the increasing of spherulites growth rate and the maximum size of spherulites is depend upon both the induction time and spherulites growth rate of LLDPE component affected by m-LLDPE.

Polyethylene terephthalate(PET) is a well known commercial polymer widely available as fibre and as a major polymer with diverse applications. In this experiment, for the modification of PET, the pentanediol isomers, 1,5-pentanediol(1,5-PD) and neopentyl glycol(NPG), were introduced as third monomers. Crystallization rate decreased by the added NPG of PET modified by NPG units. In the case of PET modified by 1,5-PD, crystallization rate had been slightly increased at all temperatures until the 1,5-PD was added about 10 mol%. The decreased crystallization rate is thought to be due to branched from methyl group of neopentyl, which greatly retards the crystallization by growing onto the crystal surface of the diffused polymer chain.

A series of random copolyesters having various compositions were synthesized by bulk copolymerization of bishydroxyethyl terephthalate (BHET) with 1,4-cyclohexane dimethanol (CHDM) or dimethyl isophthalate (DMI). CHDM and DMI content was less than 10 wt%. For the synthesized copolyesters, isothermal crystallization rate, melting behavior, and equilibrium temperature were investigated by calorimetry and by Avrami and Hoffman-Weeks equation. Crystalline lattice and morphology were studied by WAXD and SEM. Regardless of the composition, the value of the Avrami exponent was about 3, which indicates that crystallization mechanism of the copolyester was similar to those of PET homopolymer. Incoporation of CHDM or DMI units in PET backbone decreased the crystallization rate of the copolyesters. Surface free energy of copolyesters was evaluated using the newly proposed equation. The value of surface free energy was about 189$\times$$10^{-6}$/$J^{2}$/$m^{4}$ regardless of comonomer contents. This result is in good agreement with that of PET homopolymer.

[ $Ba_2NaNb_5O_{15}$ ](BNN) thin films have been prepared by the ion beam sputter deposition (IBSD) method on Pt coated Si substrate at temperature as low as $600^{\circ}C$ XRD, SEM were used to investigate the crystallization and microstructure of the films. It was found that the films were crack-free and uniform in microstructure. The electric properties of thin films were carried out by observation of D-E hysteresis loop, dielectric constant and leakage current. It was found the deposition rate strongly influenced the phase formation of the films, where the phase of $BaNb_2O_6$ was always formed when the deposition rate was high. However, the single phase (tungsten bronze structure ) BNN thin film was obtained with the deposition rate as low as $22{\AA}/min$. The remanent polarization Pr and dielectric constant are about 1-2 ${\mu}C/cm^2$ and $100\sim200$, respectively. It was also founded the electric properties of thin films were influenced by the deposition rate. The Pr and dielectric constant of films increased with the decrease of deposition rate. The effects of annealing temperature and annealing time to the crystallization behavior of films were studied. The crystallization of thin film started at about $600^{\circ}C$. The adequate crystallization was gotten at the temperature of $650^{\circ}C$ when the annealing time is 0.5 hour or at the temperature of $600^{\circ}C$ when the annealing time is long as 6 hours.

The kinetics of isothermal crystallization in blends of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(styrene-co-acrylic acid) (SAA) has been examined as a function of the blend ratio, the copolymer composition, and the crystallization temperature, based on the Avrami eauation. The Avrami exponents were mostly chose to 2, independent of the crystallization temperature. The crystallization rate of PEO in PEO/SAA blends decreased with the increase of SAA content. And also, the higher the acrylic acid content in the SAA copolymer, 7he slower the crystallization rate of PEO in the blends.

Separation of naphthalene from naphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene mixture has been studied by layered melt and solution crystallization using ethylalcohol. Purity and yield of naphthalene depended mainly on the cooling rate: The effective distribution coefficient ($K_{eff}$) as the degree of impurity removal was observed to decrease with the decreasing in cooling rate. Purity of naphthalene can be enhanced to $5{\sim}7%$ by melt crystallization using 90% naphthalene and the purity of naphthalene can be obtained to be 99% up by solution crystallization.

A novel agglomeration technique, termed "Spherical Crystallization Process", which can transform directly the fine crystals produced in the crystallization or the reaction process into a spherical shape was developed. By this technique, needle like crystals such as salicylic acid were transformed into free flowing and directly compressible agglomerates. Sphericaly agglomerated aminophyline crystals were obtained directly from the reaction system, which could reduce the preparation processes, e. g. synthesis, crystallization and agglomeration, into only one step. Sodium theophyline monohydrate agglomerates were prepared by salting out, the rate process of which was described by a first order kinetics. Agglomerated crystals of ndw complex of indo-methacin-mepirizole were prepare with this technique; an improved therapeutic effect of the resultant crystals was expected. expected.
