The Raman stretching frequency of nitrile group was affected by change of solvents and its in concentration in same solvent. In the case of acetonitrile, nitrile group stretching frequencies were observed in the region of 2247.3∼2254.9 cm-1 with various solvents. While in benzonitrile, they were found in the region of 2226.1∼2230.3$ cm^{-1}. With the addition of water in acetonitrile,νC≡N was shifted to high frequency from 2250.1 cm^{-1} in pure acetonitrile to 2257.7 cm^{-1} in 90% water forwhich had with higher volume % of water caused higher hydrogen-bonded equilibrium between methyl protons and water. The νC≡N frequency for nitrile group was shifted to high frequency by solvent inductive effect with the increasing mixed solvent (CHCl_3/CCl_4)$mole% ratio.

Organic light emitting layer in OLED device was formed by gravure printing process in this work. Organic surface coated by gravure printing typically showed relatively bad uniformity. Thickness and roughness control was characterized by applying various mixed solvents in this work. Poly (N-vinyl carbazole) (PVK) and fact-tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium($Ir(ppy)_3$) are host dopant system materials. PVK was used as a host and Ir(ppy)3 as green-emitting dopant. To luminance efficiency of the plasma treatment on etched ITO glass and then PEDOT:PSS spin coated. The device layer structure of OLED devices is as follow Glass/ITO/PEDOT:PSS/PVK+Ir(ppy)3-Active layer /LiF/Al. It was printed by gravure printing technology for polymer light emitting diode (PLED). To control the thickness multi-printing technique was applied. As the number of the printing was increased the thickness enhancement was increased. To control the roughness of organic layer film, thermal annealing process was applied. The annealing temperature was varied from room temperature, $40^{\circ}C$, $80^{\circ}C$, to $120^{\circ}C$.

A non-vacuum process for $Cu(In,Ga)Se_2$ (CIGS) thin film solar cells from nanoparticle precursors was described in this work CIGS nanoparticle precursors was prepared by a low temperature colloidal route by reacting the starting materials $(CuI,\;InI_3,\;GaI_3\;and\;Na_2Se)$ in organic solvents, by which fine CIGS nanoparticles of about 20nm in diameter were obtained. The nanoparticle precursors were mixed with organic binder material for the rheology of the mixture to be adjusted for the doctor blade method. After depositing the mixture of CIGS with binder on Mo/glass substrate, the samples were preheated on the hot plate in air to evaporate remaining solvents ud to burn the organic binder material. Subsequently, the resultant (porous) CIGS/Mo/glass simple was selenized in a two-zone Rapid Thermal Process (RTP) furnace in order to get a solar ceil applicable dense CIGS absorber layer. Complete solar cell structure was obtained by depositing. The other layers including CdS buffer layer, ZnO window layer and Al electrodes by conventional methods. The resultant solar cell showed a conversion efficiency of 0.5%.

Understanding the mechanisms that control and concentrate the observed electrospray ionisation (ESI) response from peptides is important. Controlling these mechanisms can improve signal-to-noise ratio in the mass spectrum, and enhances the generation of intact ions, and thus, improves the detection of peptides when analysing mixtures. The effects of different mixtures of aqueous: organic solvents (25, 50, 75%; v/v): formic acid solution (at pH 3.26) compositions on the ESI response and charge-state distribution (CSD) during mass spectrometry (MS) were determined in a group of biologically active peptides (molecular wt range 1.3 - 3.3 kDa). The ESI response is dependent on type of organic solvent in the mobile phase mixture and therefore, solvent choice affects optimal ion intensities. As expected, intact peptide ions gave a more intense ESI signal in polar protic solvent mixtures than in the low polarity solvent. However, for four out of the five analysed peptides, neither the ESI response nor the CSD were affected by the volatility of the solvent mixture. Therefore, in solvent mixtures, as the composition changes during the evaporation processes, the $pK_b$ of the amino acid composition is a better predictor of multiple charging of the peptides.

The reaction of [IrCl(cod)]2 with ppol ligand, Ph2PCH2CH2CH2P(Ph)CH2CH2CH=CH2, in ethanol gives an iridium complex, whose structure is converted from an ionic form, [Ir(cod)(ppol)]Cl·2C2H5OH (1),in polar solvents (ethanol, methanol and acetonitrile), to a molecular form, [IrCl(cod)(ppol)], in non-polar solvents (benzene and toluene). The cationic complexes, [Ir(cod)(ppol)]AsF6·1/2C2H5OH and [Ir(cod)(ppol)]PF6·1/2CH3CN, were prepared to compare with the ionic form by 31P NMR spectroscopy. When carbon monoxide is introduced to 1, cod is replaced by CO to give the 5-coordinated complex, [IrCl(CO)(ppol)]. Hydrogenation of 1-octene was not successful in the presence of 1. In order to verify the reason for 1 not behaving as a good catalyst for hydrogenation, electrophilic reactions with HCl, I2 and HBF4·etherate were performed, which yielded the oxidative addition product, [IrHCl2(ppol)], the substitution product, [IrI(cod)(ppol)], and another cationic product, [Ir(cod)(ppol)]BF4, respectively. Thus, the iridium complex is not sufficiently basic to activate hydrogen atoms or the olefin of the ppol ligand.

Due to the fact that tocopherols and tocotrienols have antioxidant and anticancer properties, the commercial utilization of unsaponifiable fractions in rice bran is increasing. These nutraceutical compounds, however, are fairly unstable and readily break down when exposed to oxygen or lighting conditions. To compare the relative sensitivity of vit E isomers to heat and oxygen, concentrated unsaponifiable fractions extracted from crude rice bran oil were exposed to various temperature, oxygen (nitrogen-balanced), and bathing solvent conditions and resultant concentration changes in ${\alpha}$- and ${\gamma}$-tocopherols (T) and tocotrienols (T3) were evaluated. Each isomer exhibited different heat stability. Among them, ${\alpha}$-T3 degraded more rapidly compared to other vit E isomers while ${\alpha}$-T was the most stable isomer. Oxygen level also showed significant impact on each isomer's stability where severe reductions of ${\gamma}$-T (by 20%) and ${\gamma}$-T3 (by 29%) were observed under 2% oxygen conditions, while under 0% oxygen conditions no degradation could be observed even after exposure to $95^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours. When various blending solvents were mixed with concentrated unsaponifiable fractions, organic solvents such as isooctane and hexane were more effective in maintaining the stability of ${\gamma}$- T3 compared to edible oils, among which com oil was more efficient than soybean and rice bran oils.

This study aims to select suitable co-solvents and to obtain optimal process conditions in order to improve process efficiency and productivity through experimental results obtained under various experimental conditions for the etching and rinsing process using liquid carbon dioxide and supercritical carbon dioxide. Acetone was confirmed to be effective through basic experiments and used as the etching solution for MEMS-wafer etching in this study. In the case of using liquid carbon dioxide as the solvent and acetone as the etching solution, these two components were not mixed well and showed a phase separation. Liquid carbon dioxide in the lower layer interfered with contact between acetone and Mems-wafer during etching, and the results after rinsing and drying were not good. Based on the results obtained under various experimental conditions, the optimum process for treating MEMS-wafer using supercritical CO2 as the solvent, acetone as the etching solution, and methanol as the rinsing solution was set up, and MEMS-wafer without stiction can be obtained by continuous etching, rinsing and drying process. In addition, the amount of the etching solution (acetone) and the cleaning liquid (methanol) compared to the initial experimental values can be greatly reduced through optimization of process conditions.

Kinetic studies on the solvolysis of para-methyl benzyl nitrate and benzyl nitrate were carried out in aqueous methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, acetone, tetrahydrofuran and dioxane mixtures at 60$^{\circ}$C. The rates were faster in protic solvent mixtures than in aprotic solvent mixtures. This was considered in the light of transition state stabilization by hydrogen bonding solvation of protic solvent mixtures. Grunwald-Winstein equation, extended Grunwald-Winstein equation and correlation between E$_T$(30) and rate constant were applied in order to discuss the transition state variations caused by changing benzyl substituents and solvents. The results showed that strong electrophilic assistance of solvent is operative in the the water-rich solvents.

Solvolyses of t-butylhalides (X = Cl, Br, I) in quasi isodielectric solvent system, MeOH-nitromethane, MeOH-nitrobenzene and MeOH-ethyleneglycol have been studied kinetically. Methanolyses for t-butylhalides in MeOH-NM and MeOH-NB show rate maxima at 40~100 % (v/v) MeOH. The rate maxima observed have been interpreted as a result of cooperative enhancement of polarity-polarizability and hydrogen bonddonor ability of solvents. The influences of polarity-polarizability and hydrogen bonddonor ability on reactivities of substrates have been discussed in terms of Y value changes. The solvolysis rates for t-butylhalides in E.G. are more than 20 fold faster than those in MeOH and this was attributed to the solvent structure of E.G.

Occupational neurotoxic diseases have become increasingly common in Taiwan due to industrialization. Over the past 40 years, Taiwan has transformed from an agricultural society to an industrial society. The most common neurotoxic diseases also changed from organophosphate poisoning to heavy metal intoxication, and then to organic solvent and semiconductor agent poisoning. The nervous system is particularly vulnerable to toxic agents because of its high metabolic rate. Neurological manifestations may be transient or permanent, and may range from cognitive dysfunction, cerebellar ataxia, Parkinsonism, sensorimotor neuropathy and autonomic dysfunction to neuromuscular junction disorders. This study attempts to provide a review of the major outbreaks of occupational neurotoxins from 1968 to 2012. A total of 16 occupational neurotoxins, including organophosphates, toxic gases, heavy metals, organic solvents, and other toxic chemicals, were reviewed. Peer-reviewed articles related to the electrophysiology, neuroimaging, treatment and long-term follow up of these neurotoxic diseases were also obtained. The heavy metals involved consisted of lead, manganese, organic tin, mercury, arsenic, and thallium. The organic solvents included n-hexane, toluene, mixed solvents and carbon disulfide. Toxic gases such as carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulfide were also included, along with toxic chemicals including polychlorinated biphenyls, tetramethylammonium hydroxide, organophosphates, and dimethylamine borane. In addition we attempted to correlate these events to the timeline of industrial development in Taiwan. By researching this topic, the hope is that it may help other developing countries to improve industrial hygiene and promote occupational safety and health care during the process of industrialization.
