Tetradentate Schiff base cobalt(II) complexes such as $Co(II)_2-N$, N-bis(salicylidene)-m-phenylendiimine; [$Co(II)_2(SMPD)_2(H_2O)_4$] and $Co(II)_2-N$, N-bis(salicylidene)-p-phenylendiimine: [$Co(II)_2(SPPD)_2(H_2O)_4$], and oxygen adducted cobalt (III) complexes such as [$Co(III)_2O_2(SMPD)_2(Py)_2$] and [$Co(III)_2O_2(SPPD)_2(Py)_2$] in pyridine solutions were synthesized. It was identified that the oxygen adducted cobalt(III) complexes have hexacoordinated octahedral configuration with pyridine and oxygen from the measurement of elemental analysis, AA, IR spectra, and TGA. The redox processes were investigated for the oxygen adducted complexes in 0.1M TEAP-pyridine solution, using cyclic voltammetry on the glassy carbon electrode. The redox processes of oxygen adducted Co(III) complexes result in $$[Co(III)_2-O_2-CO(III)]\rightarrow^{e^-}[Co(III)-O_2-Co(II)]\rightarrow^{e^-}[Co(II)-O_2-Co(II)]\rightleftarrows^{e^-}[Co(II)+Co(II)+O_2{\cdot}^-]\rightleftarrows^{e^-}[Co(II)+Co(I)+O_2{\cdot}^-]\rightleftarrows^{e^-}[Co(I)+Co(I)+O_2{\cdot}^-]$$.

Polypropylene (PP)/corn starch master batch (starch-MB) blends with different PP compositions of 40, 50, 60, and 80 wt% were prepared by melt compounding at $200^{\circ}C$, using lab scale Brabender mixer. The chemical structures and thermal properties of the PP/starch-MB blends were investigated by FT-IR, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA). The chemical structure was confirmed by the existence of hydroxy group. There was no district change in melting temperature and melting enthalpy, and TGA curve indicated a decrease in degradation temperature with starch-MB content. The porosity change of blend was measured by scanning electron microscope (SEM), the degree of porosity on the blend surface increased with the starch-MB content. The rheological properties indicated an increase in complex viscosity, shear thinning tendency and elasticity with the starch-MB concentration. These effects were confirmed by an oscillatory viscometer at $200^{\circ}C$. From these results, it is found that 40 wt% is the optimum starch-MB concentration. The fiber was fabricated from PP60/MB40 with 40 wt% starch-MB and the porosity and tensile properties were investigated.

Tetradentate Schiff base cobalt(II) complex; Co(SND) and Co(SOPD) were synthesized, and these complexes were allowed to react with dry oxygen to form oxygen adducts cobalt(III) complexes such as $[Co(SND)(Py)]_2O_2$ and $[Co(SOPD)(Py)]_2O_2$ in pyridine. These complexes have been identified by IR specta, T.G.A., magnetic susceptibilities measurements and elemental analysis. It has been found that the oxygen adducts coblat(III) complexes have hexacoordinated octahedral configuration with tetradentate Schiff base cobalt(II), pyridine and oxygen, and the mole ratio of oxygen to cobalt(II) complexes are 1;2. The redox reaction processes of $Co(SND)(Py)_2$ and $Co(SOPD)(Py)_2$ complexes were investigated by cyclic voltammetry with glassy carbon electrode in 0.1M TEAP pyridine. The result of redox reaction processes of Co(III)/Co(II) and Co(II)/Co(I) for $Co(SND)(Py)_2$ and $Co(SOPD)(Py)_2$ complexes are reversible or quasi reversible process but oxygen adducts complexes are irreversible processes. Redox process for oxygen of oxygen adducts complexes was quasi reversible and redox range of potential was $E_{pc}\;=\;-0.96{\sim}-1.03V$ and $E_{pa}\;=\;-0.78{\sim}-0.80V.$

In this study, iron(III)-2,4-dihydroxysalophen chloride (Fe(2,4-DHSalophen)Cl), has been synthesized by combination of 2,4-dihydroxysalophen (2,4-DHSalophen) with $FeCl_2$ in a solvent system. This complex combination was characterized using UV-vis and IR spectroscopies. Subsequently, the interaction between native calf thymus deoxyribonucleic acid (ct-DNA) and Fe(2,4-DHSalophen)Cl, was investigated in 10 mM Tris/HCl buffer solution, pH 7.2, using UV-visible absorption and fluorescence spectroscopies, thermal denaturation technique and viscosity measurements. From spectrophotometric titration experiments, the binding constant of Fe(2,4-DHSalophen)Cl with ct-DNA was found to be $(1.6{\pm}0.2){\times}10^3\;M^{-1}$. The fluorescence study represents the quenching effect of Fe(2,4-DHSalophen)Cl on bound ethidium bromide to DNA. The quenching process obeys linear Stern-Volmer equation in extended range of Fe(2,4-DHSalophen)Cl concentration. Thermal denaturation experiments represent the increasing melting temperature of DNA (about $4.3^{\circ}C$) due to binding of Fe(2,4-DHSalophen)Cl. These results are consistent with a binding mode dominated by interactions with the groove of ct-DNA.

Two new palladium (II) complexes, [Pd (phen)(pip-dtc)]$NO_3$ and [Pd(phen)(mor-dtc)]$NO_3$, (where phen is 1,10-Phenantroline, pip-dtc is piperidinedithiocarbamate anion and mor-dtc is morpholinedithiocarbamate anion) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopic studies (FT-IR, $^1H$ NMR, UV-Vis) and conductance measurement. In these complexes, the dithiocarbamate ligands coordinate with Pd (II) center as bidentate with two sulfur atoms. These two complexes have been tested against chronic myelogenous leukemia cell line, K562. They show $IC_{50}$ values less than cisplatin and thus the mode of binding of the complexes to calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) were investigated by ultraviolet difference and fluorescence spectroscopy. They can denature DNA, exhibit cooperative binding and intercalate into DNA. Several binding and thermodynamic parameters are also described.

The complexation behavior of the $\alpha$-ketostabilized phosphorus ylides $Ph_3P$=CHC(O) $C_6H_4-X$ (X=Br, Ph) towards the transition metal ions mercury (II) and Silver (I) was investigated. The mercury(II) complex {$HgX_2$ [Y]} 2 ($Y_1$=4-bromo benzoyl methylene triphenyl phosphorane; X=Cl(1), Br(2), I(3), $Y_2$=4-phenyl benzoyl methylene triphenyl phosphorane; X=Cl(4), Br(5), I(6)) have been prepared from the reaction of $Y_1$ and $Y_2$ with $HgX_2$ (X=Cl, Br, I) respectively. Silver complexes [$Ag(Y_2)_2]$ X(X=$BF_4$(7), OTf(8)) of the $\alpha$-keto-stabilized phosphorus ylides ($Y_2$) were obtained by reacting this ylide with AgX (X=$BF_4$, OTf) in $Me_2CO$. The crystal structure of complexes (1) and (4) was discussed. These reactions led to binuclear complexes C-coordination of ylide and trans-like structure of complexes $[Y_1HgCl_2]_2$. $CHCl_3$ (1) and $[Y_2HgCl_2]_2$ (4) is demonstrated by single crystal X-ray analyses. Not only all of complexes have been studied by IR, $^1H$ and $^{31}P$ NMR spectroscopy, but also complexes 1-3 have been characterized by $^{13}$CNMR.

${\pi}$-A isotherms of the Palmitic acid(PA) with increasing pH shifted to the low area/molecule due to the dissociation of PA at the air-water interface. More condensation of PA monolayers occurred by the addition of Mg$^{2+}$, Ca$^{2+}$ and Ba$^{2+}$ ion in subphase. This condensing effect was increased with increasing the concentration of these ions. Due to the interaction with each ion, PA were formed Mg, Ca, Ba-Palmitate complex. The binding structure between alkaline earth ion and carboxylate ligand in PA has been identified by IR spectrometry. The order of condensing effect of alkaline earth ions at pH 8 was Ca$^{2+}$ > Ba$^{2+}$+ > Mg$^{2+}$. The condensing effect except for Mg$^{2+}$ decreased with increasing atomic number. Whereas, the condensing effect in pure water system decreased with decreasing atomic number in the sequence: Ba$^{2+}$ > Ca$^{2+}$ > Mg$^{2+}$. The miscibility of binary system of PA and hexadecanol in monolayer showed that the miscibility was good for the pure water system. But, in the buffered pH 8 system, bad miscibility was found.

Used small household appliances(small e-waste) consists of a variety of complex materials and components. The small e-waste is mainly composed of plastics and an important potential source of waste plastic. The black plastics, particularly are very difficult to separate by resin type and therefore these are mainly recycled in the form of a mixtures. In the present study, the sorting technologies such as gravity and electro static separation, near-infrared ray(NIR) and IR/Raman optical sorting separation on mixture of black plastics were analyzed and their limitations on sorting process were also investigated. The Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy(LIBS) spectrum of each black plastics was used for identification of black plastics by resin type, and after analyzing the normalization operation, Principal Component Analysis(PCA) was carried out. The spectrum data was optimized through PCA process. In order to improve the identification accuracy and sorting efficiency of black plastics, it is necessary to design a classifier with high efficiency and to improve the performance and reliability of the classifier by applying the field of intelligent algorithms.

In this study, an experiment and a reaction characteristic study were conducted to enhance the reaction activity of V₂O₅/WO₃/TiO₂ at 300 ℃ or less by adding selenium to the support, in a selective catalytic reduction method using ammonia as a reducing agent to remove nitrogen oxides. Se-TiO₂ and TiO₂ were synthesized using the sol-gel method, and used as a support when preparing V₂O₅/WO₃/TiO₂ and V₂O₅/WO₃/Se-TiO₂ catalysts. The reaction activity of our catalyst was compared with that of a commercial catalyst. The denitration efficiency of the catalyst using TiO₂ prepared by the sol-gel method was lower than that of the catalyst prepared using commercial TiO₂, but was improved by the addition of selenium. Thus, the effect of selenium addition on the catalyst structure was analyzed using BET, XRD, Raman, H₂-TPR, and FT-IR measurements and the effect of the increase in specific surface area by selenium addition and the formation of monomer and complex vanadium species on reaction characteristics were confirmed.

Branched polypropylenes (LCB-PP) with a long chain branch were prepared by the solid-state and molt-state reaction. Divinylbenzene (DVB), 1,4-benzenediol (RES), and furfuryl sulphide (FS) were used as branching agents of fabricate LCB-PP/silicate composites. Chemical structures, thermal properties, and rheological properties of the LCB-PP were determined by FT-IR, DSC, TGA, and dynamic rheometer (ARES). The chemical structure of the LCB-PP was confirmed by the existence of =C-H stretching peak of the branching agent at $3100cm^{-1}$. From DSC and TGA results, the melting reaction was more effective than the solid state reaction in the manufacture of LCB-PP, which was additionally certified by rheological properties. Based on rheological properties, FS was the best for branching efficiency of PP. Compared to PP, LCB-PPs indicated an increase of complex viscosity in the low frequency and shear thinning tendency, and G'-G" plot represented an increase in elasticity and the heterogeneousness in a melt state. Rheological properties of LCB-PP/silicate composites were observed with the silicate content. When 5 wt% silicate was added in LCB-PP, distinct changes in the shear thinning and the slope of G'-G" plots were observed.
