Poly(4-vinyl phenol) (PVPh) was neutralized by LiOH and PVPh ionomers (PVPh-Li) with different Li neutralization extents were synthesized. The variation in $T_{g}$ with Li neutralization was determined by DSC and the results show that the $T_{g}$ increases by 3.$8^{\circ}C$ per Li mol%. When comparing this result with the 3.$2^{\circ}C$ per Na mol% reported for poly (styrene-co-hydroxy styrene), the greater value for PVPh-Li may be due to a strong interaction between unneutralized free -OH and -OLi produced. No distinct small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) peak was observed for these PVPh ionomers in bulk. In the 50/50 blend of PVPh-Li with PVPh, the miscibile blend was obtained when the Li neutralization in PVPh-Li was 10 mol%. On the contrary, the 50/50 PVPh-Li/PMMA was immiscible when the Li neutralization was 5 mol%. It can be concluded that, even if the starting blend is miscible owing to hydrogen bonding, the miscibility of blend becomes diminished by introducing small amount of ion groups into one of the constituent polymers and the blend can be immiscible as long as any new strong intermolecular ion-dipole interaction is not generated.

Ab initio SCF calculations have been carried out for the five conceivable trimers formed between one hydrogen cyanide and two hydrogen fluorides using a basis set of TZ＋P quality. Several ground state properties of these trimeric complexes have been evaluated, and compared with those of isolated monomers and appropriate dimers. Computed equilibrium geometries, stabilization energies, and dipole moments are given in order to suppliment the available experimental data. At this level of approximation, intramolecular bond distances are consistently shorter than experimental ones. However, intermolecular distances upon complex formation, and dipole moments are overestimated compared with experimental ones. HCN$(HF)_2$ trimer appears to be the most favourable among the five kinds of trimer complex, and also more stable than $(HCN)_2HF$. The typical features of the non-additivity of intermolecular interaction are relatively strong in the HCN$(HF)_2$ trimer.

The extractions of aqueous Eu3+ and Tb3+ ions into ethylacetate or dichloromethane were conducted by using 12-crown-4, 15-crown-5 and 18-crown-6 ethers as ligand. Benzoate ion was selected as counter anion for the complexes formed between the lanthanide ions and crown ethers. Fluorescence spectra of the lanthanide ions induced by the energy transfer from benzoate anion to the cations were also measured. The quantitative analysis of the lanthanide ions extracted into organic phase were made on the basis of the results of fluorescence. The measured extractivity is interpreted in terms of the ion-dipole interaction.

The objective of the present work is to develop a time-domain numerical method of broadband noise in a cascade of airfoils. This paper focuses on dipole broadband noise sources, resulting from the interaction of turbulent inflows with the flat-plate airfoil cascade. The turbulence response of a two-dimensional cascade is studied by solving both of the linearised and full nonlinear Euler equations employing accurate higher order spatial differencing, time stepping techniques and non-reflecting inflow/outflow boundary condition. The time-domain result using the linearised Euler equations shows good agreement with the analytical solution using the modified LINSUB code. Through the comparison of the nonlinear time-domain result using the full nonlinear Euler equations with the linear, it is found that the acoustic mode amplitude of the nonlinear response is less than that of the linear response due to the energy cascade from low frequency components to the high frequency ones. Considering the merits of the time-domain methods over the typical time-linearised frequency-domain analysis, the current method is expected to be promising tools for analyzing the effects of the airfoil shapes, non-uniform background flow, linear-nonliear regimes on the broadband noise due to gust-cascade interaction.

Sulphur Spinel $Co_{0.95}Fe_{0.05}Cr_2S_4$ has been studied with Mossbauer Spectroscopy between 4.2 K and room temperature. The $Fe^{2+}$ ion in a tetrahedral site is the Jahn-Teller active and the dynamic Jahn-Teller distortion starts below the magnetic ordering temperature. The distortion cause a quadrupole shift to appear which increases with decreasing temperature. The magnetic hyperfine field has a maximum at 100 k and then decreases with decreasing temperature. The magnitude of the interaction ratio R between the electric quadrupole and magnetic dipole interaction increases from 0 near the magnetic ordering temperature to 5.4 at 4.2 K. The optimum values of 0, the polar angle of the magnetic hyperfine field with respect to the principle axis of the electric field gradient (EFG) remains zero and the asymmetry of the EFG n is about 0.25. The simulations of Mossbauer spectra coincidence with the experimental results.

Rate constants and activation parameters for the methanolysis of t-butyl halide (t-BuCl, t-BuBr, t-BuI) in various MeOH-DMSO mixtures were measured by conductometric method. Taft's solvatochromic parameters, such as polarity-polarizability(SPP's), ${\pi}^{\ast}$, hydrogen bond donor (HBD) acidity, ${\alpha}$, and hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) basicity, ${\beta}$ of the solvents, were determined by the so called solvatochromic method using five indicators. The variation of methanolysis rate with the solvent composition was discussed on the basis of the activation parameters and the correlation of the rates with the solvatochromic parameters. It is concluded that the polarity-polarizability, HBD acidity and HBA basicity of the mixtures had an effect on the ionization of t-butyl halide cooperatively, also that the specific interaction between the leaving groups and the solvents, such as ion-dipole and hydrogen bond acceptor-donor interaction, is the most important factor of solvent effects on the stabilization of transition states.

Submicron-sized $CeO_2:Er^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$ upconversion phosphor particles were synthesized by spray pyrolysis, and their luminescent properties were characterized by changing the concentration of $Er^{3+}$ and $Yb^{3+}$. $CeO_2:Er^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$ showed an intense green and red emission due to the $^4S_{3/2}$ or $^2H_{11/2}{\rightarrow}^4I_{15/2}$ and $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^4I_{15/2}$ transition of $Er^{3+}$ ions, respectively. In terms of the emission intensity, the optimal concentrations of Er and Yb were 1.0 % and 2.0%, respectively, and the concentration quenching was found to occur via the dipole-dipole interaction. Upconversion mechanism was discussed by using the dependency of emission intensities on pumping powers and considering the dominant depletion processes of intermediate energy levels for the red and green emission with changing the $Er^{3+}$ concentration. An energy transfer from $Yb^{3+}$ to $Er^{3+}$ in $CeO_2$ host was mainly involved in ground-state absorption (GSA), and non-radiative relaxation from $^4I_{11/2}$ to $^4I_{13/2}$ of $Er^{3+}$ was accelerated by the $Yb^{3+}$ co-doping. As a result, the $Yb^{3+}$ co-doping led to greatly enhance the upconversion intensity with increasing ratios of the red to green emission. Finally, it is revealed that the upconversion emission is achieved by two photon processes in which the linear decay dominates the depletion of intermediate energy levels for green and red emissions for $CeO_2:Er^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$ phosphor.

[ $FeCr_2Se_4$ ] prepared under the high pressure (3 GPa) has been studied with x-ray, neutron diffraction techniques, superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer, resistance, and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The temperature dependence of resistance is explained by Mott-VRH and small polaron model for the regions I (T<20 K) and II (T>42 K), respectively. Neutron diffraction results show an antiferromagnetic spin-lattice coupling near the Neel temperature. So finally the distance of atom is enlarged in region (110$FeCr_2Se_4$ shows convex type of temperature dependence.

Miscibility improvement between polypropylene(PP) and ethylene-propylene-diene-terpolymer (EPDM) was studied by introducing specific interaction into both polymers. PP was modified by grafting maleic anhydride(MAH) onto backbone, leading to MAH-grafted PP(PP-g-MAH). Sulfonated EPDM ionomer neutralized with bivalent zinc cation(ZnSEPDM) was used as one component. The blends of PP-g-MAH and ZnSEPDM were prepared at $200^{\circ}C$ in Brabender Roller Mixer. Fourier transform-infrared(FT-IR) spectroscopic and dynamic mechanical studies have been performed to investigate the miscibility. FT-IR spectral peak corresponding to carbonyl group in PP-g-MAH and that to sulfonate group in ZnSEPDM were shifted to lower and higher frequency with increasing ZnSEPDM content, respectively, in the blends. Glass transition temperature of ZnSEPDM was increased up to 70wt.% of ZnSEPDM, and again decreased above 70wt.%. It can be concluded from the shift of FT-IR characteristic peaks and the changes of glass transition temperatures that the miscibility between PP and EPDM was improved via introducing specific interaction, i.e., dipole-ion interaction.
