This paper presents the design concept and operation results of float-off for FSO (340,000 DWT Class, ELF AMENAM KPONO Project) built on the ground, without dry dock facilities. It was the first attempt to build FSO, completely, on the ground and launch it using DBU (Double Barge Unit, which was connected by rigid frame structure.) The major characteristics of FSO, which are similar to general VLCC type hull, including topside structure, weigh 51,000 metric ton. In order to have sufficient stability during the deck immersion of DBU, while passing through a minimum water plane area zone, proper trim control was completed with LMC (Load Master Computer). The major features of the monitoring system include calculation for transverse bending moment, shear force, local strength check of each connector, based on component stress, and deformation check during the load-out and float-off. Another major concern during the operation was to avoid damages at the bottom and sides of FSO, due to motion & movement after free-floating; therefore, adequate clearances between DBU and FSO were to be provided, and guide posts were installed to prevent side damage of the DBU casings. This paper also presents various measures that indecate the connector bending moment, damage stability analysis, and mooring of DBU during float off.

A new and efficient reagent for the conversion of primary and secondary alcohols into their corresponding aldehydes and ketones is introduced. The reagent was easily prepared from the reaction of DBU with molecular bromine in $CHCl_3$. The structure of the reagent as $DBUH^+{Br_3}^-$ was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.

Effects of catalysts on network structure, hard segment length and distribution of polyurethane foams in the absence of catalysts were investigated. CFC free all MDI-based poly urethane foams were prepared from poly(ethylene adipate)glycol, 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate, and water. Amino catalysts used were 1,4-diazabicyclo[2,2,2]octane(DABCO), N, N,N',N'-tetramethyl--hexane-1,6-diamine(MR), bis(2-methylamino ethyl)ether(ET), 1,8-diazabicyclo-[5,4,0]-undecene-7(DBU). Dibutyltindilaurate(DBTL) as control was also used. Hard segment components of polyurethane foams were obtained by a selective degradation of polyester chains with 0.01N KOH-methanol solution. The PUFs with DBU catalyst contained more amount of isocyanurate components than other PUFs. On the other hand, the PUFs with ET, MR, DBTL catalysts contained more amount of allophanate and biuret component than the other PUFs.

Elimination reactions of (E)-2,4-dinitrobenzaldehyde O-pivaloyloxime promoted by R2NH/R2NH2+ buffer in 70% MeCN(aq) have been studied kinetically. The reaction exhibited second order kinetics and general base catalysis with Bronsted β=0.45. The Hammett ρ value decreased from 2.3 to 1.6 as the base-solvent system was changed from DBU in MeCN to R2NH/R2NH2+ buffer in 70% MeCN(aq). From these results an E2 mechanism is proposed.

Poly(vinylidenefluoride-co-chlorotrifluoroethylene) P(VDF-co-CTFE) polymer was attached to methacrylic acid (MAA) in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5,4,0]undec-7-ene(DBU) catalyst to prepare P(VDF-co-CTFE)-MAA copolymer. The modified P(VDF-co-CTFE)-MAA was polymerized with 2-sulfoethyl methacrylate (SEMA) monomer in the presence of 4',4'-azobis(4-cyanovaleric acid(ACVA) initiator by free radical polymerization to form the proton conducting membrane. The ratio of the SEMA was increased in the membrane to increase the presence of the acidic group. The maximum IEC value that was observed at 50% SEMA was around 0.82 meq/g, which is consistent with the water uptake value. The highest proton conductivity achieved by P(VDF-co-CTFE)-MAA/SEMA membrane with 50% SEMA was approximately 0.041 S/cm. This indicates that the available ionic group for the proton conduction increases with the increase in the SEMA in the membrane.

Recently, Phthalocyanine dye has attentions due to their excellent photochemical properties and used to optical applications such as chemical sensors. And azo groups can change photochemical properties in the UV irradiation because their molecualr structure reverse cis-trans isomer and changes cooperative motion, aggregation and so on. In this study, we synthesized the azo compound between amino pyridine and phenol. this azo derivative used the combination with 3-nitro phthalonitrile and makes phthalocyanine structure through the synthesis with 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene(DBU), zinc acetate. Finally, we synthesized a new photoswiching dye zinc-phthalocyanine azo compound. This compound was studied by phothoswichiing phenomenon by UV irradiation and analyzed molecular aggregation through the SEM images.
