Polycarboxylate type superplasticizers (PCA) with different graft chain (Polyethylene oxide) length were synthesized by Methoxypoly (ethyleneglycol)monomethacrylate (MPEGMAA) and methacrylic acid (MAA). The effects of PCA on the hydration of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) were investigated by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) techniques. The effect of graft chain length of PCA on the hydration of OPC was different at early age, but, at long age, was similar. The ratio of relative peak intensity, (I［001］/I［101］), of Ca(OH)$_2$ compared with OPC also was reduced by PCA addition.

The shape memory effect in Ti-50.4at.%Ni alloy after solution treatment at 1273K for 2h and aged at 350, 450, $550^{\circ}C$ for 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 10hrs had been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry measurement. It was found that ageing in the temperature range of $350^{\circ}C{\sim}550^{\cric}C$ induced complex transformation behavior, involving the R-phase and multiple-stage martensitic transformation. Usually aged Ni-rich NiTi alloys undergo martensitic transformation on cooling from high temperatures in two step : Austenite to R-phase and then R-phase to Martensite (normal behavior). In sample aged at $350^{\circ}C$ two distinct DSC peaks arised giving evidence of intermediate stages of martensite transformation. This results in the nucleation and growth of coherent $Ni_4Ti_3$-precipitate. These explain all features of the evolution of DSC charts during ageing including the number of distinct DS peaks and their positions.

Arrhenius kinetic constants, the activation energy and the pre-exponential factor, of energetic material $BKNO_3$ are estimated using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). Different from the conventional way, the activation energy was estimated more precisely through DSC aging trial, and the consumed fraction by heat was calculated by comparing the integration of heat flow. We suggested the condition of accelerated aging test for the energetic material $BKNO_3$ and reconsidered the meaning of the thermal accelerated aging.

To develop lipstick products with superior moisturizing effect using moisture base, bound water capacity and water holding capacity were investigated by DSC. Bound water capacity of the lipstick sample excluding moisture base is found to be 5.12 %. DSC measurement showed that bound water capacity and the concentration of moisture base were positively correlated. Additionally, DSC measurements and in vitro effective water holding capacity measurement showed similar patterns. Therefore, measuring of bound water capacity by DSC can predict the moisturizing effect of lipstick products.

Four crystal forms of ketorolac have been obtained by recrystallization in organic solvents under variable conditions. Different ketorolac polymorphs and pseudo polymorph were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction crystallography (XRD), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). In the dissolution studies in water at $37{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$ four crystal forms showed different patterns. The solubility of Form I were the highest. The solubility decreased in rank order: Form I> Form II > Form III > Form IV. Form land Form III were shown to have a good physical stability at room temperature for 60 days. However, Form II is converted to Form III and Form IV is converted to Form I after 60 days storage. Therefore, these observations indicate that crystalline polymorphism for ketorolac is readily inter-convertible and the relationship may have to taken into consideration in the formulation of the drug.

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and solvent swelling technique have been applied for identifying physical transition temperatures in the macromolecular structure of coals. The transition processes seem to be associated with physical relaxation of the coal structure and are irreversible processes. In Pittsburgh No. 8 high volatile bituminous (hvb) coat one physical transition was noted at 250-30$0^{\circ}C$ (at 8$^{\circ}C$/min) without any significant accompanying weight loss. Coals of higher rank than high volatile bituminous, i.e., Upper Freeport medium volatile bituminous (mvb) and Pocahontas No.3 low volatile bituminous (lvb) coals, exhibit structural relaxation just before the major thermal decomposition process and a sharp increase in solvent swellability accompanies this relaxation. In the case of both the Pittsburgh No.8 and the Upper Freeport coat structural relaxations at around 36$0^{\circ}C$ seem to coincide with release of "guest molecules".les".uot;.

Glass fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites were manufactured by Rapid Press Consolidation Technique(RPCT) as functions of temperature, pressure and time in pre-heating, consolidation and solidification sections during the manufacturing processing. It was found that the material property is greatly affected by pre-heating temperature under vacuum, mold temperature and molding pressure. Among them, the temperature In the mold was the most critical factor in determining the mechanical properties and the molded conditions of specimen. The crystallinity of PET matrix was also investigated by differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) measurements for various processing conditions. The level of crystallinity($X_c$) depended strongly on the mold temperature, cooling rate and the type of composite. The difference in $X_c$ is believed to be one of important factors in characterizing the mechanical properties.

Evaluation of drug-excipient compatibility is one of the basic steps in the preformulation of pharmaceutical dosage forms. Some reactive excipients have been known so far which may cause stability problems for drug molecules in pharmaceutical dosage forms. The aim of this study was to evaluate drugexcipient compatibility of gliclazide with some common pharmaceutical excipients, known for their ability to incorporate in drug-excipient interactions. Binary mixtures were prepared using lactose, magnesium stearate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sodium starch glycolate, polyethylene glycol 2000 and dicalcium phosphate. Based on the results; gliclazide was incompatible with all tested excipients; but not with dicalcium phosphate. DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) results were in accordance with HPLC (High Pressure liquid chromatography) data and were more predictive than FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy). Drug and reactive excipients incompatibility was fully discussed and documented. It is advisable to avoid incompatible excipients or carefully monitor the drug stability when incorporating such excipients in final formulation designs.

The cure kinetics of a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) with 4, 4'-methylene dianiline (MDA) added succinonitrile was studied through the dynamic run method by applying the data to the Kissinger equation which analyses the effect of the heating rate on the temperature at maximum reaction rate using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) analyzer in the range of 3$0^{\circ}C$-35$0^{\circ}C$. In the DGEBA/MDA system with SN, the activation energy ($E_a$) and the pre-exponential factor (A) were calculated. From these results, the rate constants (k) were obtained according to the different SN contents.

The effect of soyasaponin on the liposomal phospholipid membrane was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Soyasaponins were obtained and the enthalpy changes and the sizes of cooperative unit of the transition were calculated. The thermograms of L-$\alpha$-dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) incorporated with soyasaponin showed that the phase transition temperature was significantly lowered and the peak was broadened. This was attributed to the possibility that incorporation of soyasaponin into the lipid bilayers reduced the cooperative unit of phospholipid bilayers. These results indicate soyasaponin might have significant effect on the fluidity of biological membrane.
