Direct reaction of elemental silicon with a mixture of (dichloromethyl)silanes 1 $[Cl_3-nMenSiCHCl_2:$ n = 0 (a), n = 1(b), n = 2(c), n = 3(d)] and hydrogen chloride has been studied in the presence of copper catalyst using a stirred bed reactor equ ipped with a spiral band agitator at various temperatures from $240^{\circ}C$ to $340^{\circ}C.$ Tris(si-lyl) methanes with Si-H bonds, 3a-d $[Cl_3-nMenSiCH(SiHCl_2)_2]$, and 4a-d $[Cl_3-nMenSiCH(SiHCl_2)(SiCl_3)]$, were obtained as the major products and tris(silyl)methanes having no Si-H bond, 5a-d $[Cl_3-nMenSiCH(SiCl_3)_2]$, as the minor product along with byproducts of bis(chlorosilyl)methanes, derived from the reaction of silicon with chloromethylsilane formed by the decomposition of 1. In addition to those products, trichlorosilane and tetra-chlorosilane were produced by the reaction of elemental silicon with hydrogen chloride. The decomposition of 1 was suppressed and the production of polymeric carbosilanes reduced by adding hydrogen chloride to 1. Cad-mium was a good promoter for and the optimum temperature for this direct synthesis was $280^{\circ}C$.

Sulfonation of polyetheretherketones (PEEK) was carried out in order to fabricate commercial perfluorosulfonic acid membrane alternatives, which were characterized in terms of their ion exchange capacity, ionic conductivity, water swelling, methanol crossover and electrochemical performance in their direct application as a methanol fuel cell. A high ion exchange capacity, 1.88, was achieved with a sulfonation reaction time of 8 h, with a significantly low methanol crossover low compared to that of Nafion. However, the morphological stability was found to deteriorate for membranes with sulfonation reaction times exceeding 8 h. Electrochemical cell tests suggested that the fabrication parameters of the membrane electrode assembly based on the sulfonated PEEK membranes should be optimized with respect to the physicochemical properties of the newly prepared membranes.

Ab initio quantum chemical molecular orbital calculations have been performed for the unimolecular decomposition of methacrylonitrile ($CH_3C(CN)=CH_2$), especially for HCN and $H_2$ molecular elimination channels. Structures and energies of the reactants, products, and relevant species along the individual reaction pathways were determined by MP2 gradient optimization and MP4 single point energy calculations. Direct four-center elimination of HCN and three-center elimination of H2 channels were identified. In addition, H or CN migration followed by HCN or H2 elimination channels via the methylcyanoethylidene intermediate was also identified. Unlike the case of crotonitrile previously studied, in which the dominant decomposition process was the direct three-center elimination of HCN, the most important reaction pathway should be the direct threecenter elimination of $H_2$ in the case of methacrylonitrile.

Direct reduction and carburization process was thought one of the best methods to make nano-sized WC powder. The oxide powders were mixed with graphite powder by ball milling in the compositions of WC-5,-10wt%Co. The mixture was heated at the temperatures of $600{\sim}800^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours in Ar. The reaction time of the reduction and carburization was decreased as heating temperatures and cobalt content increased. The mean size of WC/Co composite powders was about 260 nm after the reactions. And the mean size of WC grains in WC/Co composite powders was about 38 nm after the reaction at $800^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours.

Calcium hydroxyapatite have been synthesized by a direct precipitation reaction between 0.05 M calcium hydroxide suspension and 0.3 M orthophosphoric acid solution. 0.01 M calcium hydroxide solution was added during the reaction in order to increase the total Ca/P mol ration and reaction pH of the solution. The stoichiometric hydroxyapatite was synthesized over 1.75 as total Ca/P mol ratio, but the calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite was prepared under 1.725 as total Ca/P mol ratio. The nonstoichiometry of the precipitates were interpreted in terms of the pH change during the reaction.

Direct Carbon Fuel Cell(DCFC) is one of new power generation that the chemical energy of solid carbon can be converted into electrical energy directly. At the high temperature, the electrochemical reaction of the carbon takes place and the carbon reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide as followed overall reaction ($C+O_2{\rightarrow}CO_2$). However, in case of using the raw coals as a fuel of DCFC, the volatile matter containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen produces at operating temperature. In this study, the electrochemical reaction of Adaro coal was compared with Graphite. This work focused on the electrochemical reaction of two kinds of solid carbon by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy(EIS). The EIS results were estimated by equivalent circuit analysis. The constant phase element(CPE) was applied in Randle circuit to explain an electrode and fuel interface. The correlation between the fuel characteristic and electrochemical results was discussed by elements of equivalent circuit of each fuel.

The Feshbache-Kermane-Koonin (FKK) multi-step direct (MSD) theory of pre-equilibrium reactions has been used to compute the single-step cross-sections for some (p,${\alpha}$) reactions using the knock-on and pick-up reaction mechanisms at two incident proton energies. For the knock-on mechanism, the reaction was assumed to have taken place by the direct ejection of a preformed alpha cluster in a shell-model state of the target. But the reaction was assumed to have taken place by the pick-up of a preformed triton cluster (also bound in a shell-model state of the target core) by the incident proton for the pick-up mechanism. The Yukawa forms of potential were used for the proton-alpha (for the knock-on process) and proton-triton (for the pick-up process) interaction and several parameter sets for the proton and alpha-particle optical potentials. The calculated cross-sections for both mechanisms gave satisfactory fits to the experimental data. Furthermore, it has been shown that some combinations of the calculated distorted wave Born approximation cross-sections for the two reaction mechanisms in the FKK MSD theory are able to give better fits to the experimental data, especially in terms of range of agreement. In addition, the theory has been observed to be valid over a wider range of energy.

In this work, we synthsized GaN powders by the direct reactions of Ga with NH$_3$at the temperature range of 950∼1150$^{\circ}C$ and we growth the GaN thin films on Si and sapphire substrates using the synthesized GaN powders by the vapor phase epitaxy method. The synthesized powder had hexagonal crystal structures with lattice constants of a$\sub$0/=3.1895${\AA}$, c$\sub$0/=5.18394${\AA}$. The reaction rates of GaN were increased with both reaction time and temperature, however it did not depends on the flow rates of NH$_3$. The island type GaN crystals were grown on (0001) sapphire substrates and fast lateral growth of GaN on (111) Si substrate than sapphire was observed in our experiments.

$SrTiO_3$ reaction mechanism formed from $TiCl_4$ and $SrCl_2$ solution by direct-wet-process was studied. Through this study it is identified that crystalline $SrTiO_3$ is formed above pH 13.8 amorphous $SrTiO_3$ above pH7 and crystallization temperature of amorphous $SrTiO_3$ is at 37$0^{\circ}C$. the final products are composed of 60% crystalline $SrTiO_3$ and 40% amorphous $SrTiO_3$ The amorphous $SrTiO_3$ is identified with the IR absorption spectrum of Sr-Ti-O by FT-IR spectrometer. Under pH 7 gelationus metatitanate (H2TiO3) is formed from TiCl4 but above pH7 the activity by the formation of metatitnic acid ion $[TiO_3]^{2-}$ is so high that $SrTiO_3$is formed more easily through the reaction with $Sr^{2+}$.

The graphite intercalation compounds(GIC) were prepared by a dry process that led to the intercalation from the direct reaction of gaseous $SO_3$ with flake type graphite. The basal spacing of the GIC was increased from 8.3 ${\AA}$ to 12 in the gallery height. The ejection of interlayer $SO_3$ molecules by the heating for 1 minute at $950^{\circ}C$ resulted in an exfoliated graphite (EG) with surprisingly high expansion in the direction of c-axis. The expansion ratios of the exfoliated graphites were increased greatly between 220 times and 400 times compared to the original graphite particles, and the bulk density was range of 0.0053 to 0.01 $g/cm^3$, depending on reaction time. The pore size distribution of exfoliated graphite was in the range of $10-170{\mu}m$, which exhibites both mesoporosity and macroporosities. This result indicates that the direct reaction of graphite paricles with gaseous $SO_3$ can be proposed as an another route for the exfoliated graphite having excellent physical properties.
