Petroleum a vital commodity affecting every aspect of 21st century. Toxicity and adverse effects of sulphur as catalyst in petroleum products is of great concern required development of techniques for desulphurization in compliance with the International standards. Installation of desulphurizing units costs over $200 million per unit placing economic burden on developing countries like Pakistan. Present study analysis of commercial fuels (station petrol and jet fuel JP8) on gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) identified sulphur concentration of 19.94 mg/L and 21.75 mg/L, respectively. This scenario urged the researcher to attempt synthesis of material that is likely to offer good adsorption capacity for sulphur. Following protocol of sol-gel method, transition metals (Ni, Cu, Zn) solution is gelated with tetraethoxysilane (TEOS; silica precursor) using glycerol. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectra revealed bonding of Zn-O, Cu-O, and Ni-O by stretching vibrations at $468cm^{-1}$, $617cm^{-1}$, and $468cm^{-1}$, respectively. Thiophene and Benzothiophene mixed in n-heptane and benzene (4:1) for preparation of Model Fuels I and II, respectively. Each of silica based metal was applied as adsorbent in batch mode to assess the removal efficiency. Results demonstrated optimal desulphurization of more than 90% following efficacy order as Si-Ni > Si-Zn > Si-Cu based adsorbents. Proposed multilayered (Freundlich) adsorption mechanism follows ${\pi}$-complexation with pseudo secnd order kinetics.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of heat treatments on the martensite transformation and tensile deformation behavior in Ti-Ni-B alloys with various boron concentration. Three types of heat treatment are given to the specimens; i) solution treatment ii) aging iii) thermo-mechanical treatment. In solution treated specimens. R-phase transition which is related to abnormal increase of electrical resistance prior to martensitic transformation has been formed at a boron content of 0.2at % and the $M_s$ temperature has been decreased with the increasing of boron content. However. It has not been affected by aging, while that of thermo-mechanically treated specimens has been remarkably increased in the vicinity of recrystallization temperature. The thermo-mechanically treated specimen has showed a good thermal fatigue characteristics, shape memory effect and superelasticity in comparison with the solution treated specimen.

When copper alloy is used in etching process for the production of lead frame, the high concentration of heavy metals, such as iron, nickel and zinc may be included in the etching waste. Those etching waste is classified as a specified one. Therefore a customized design was designed for the purification process of the lead frame etching waste liquid containing high concentrations of heavy metals for the production of an electroplating copper(II) oxide. Since the lead frame etching waste solution contains highly concentrated heavy metal species, an ion exchange method is difficult to remove all heavy metals. In this study, a copper(I) chloride was manufactured by using water solubility difference related to the reduction-oxidation method followed by the reunion of copper(II) chloride using sodium sulfate as an oxidant. The hydrazine was chosen as a reducing agent. The optimum added amount was 1.4 mol per 1.0 mol of copper. In the case of removal of heavy metals by using the combination of reduction-oxidation and ion exchange resin methods, 4.3 ppm of $Fe^{3+}$, 2.4 ppm of $Ni^{2+}$ and 0.78 ppm of $Zn^{2+}$ can be reused as raw materials for electroplating copper(II) oxide when repeated three times.

The elution behaviors of Ni(II), Cu(II), Co(II), and Cr(II) in 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4(2-hydroxy-5-X-phenylazo)-5-pyrazolone, [Pm(2-OH)(5-X)PaPz](X=H, $CH_3$, $NO_2$, Cl) chelates have been studied by reversed phase HPLC. Thirteen metal-[Pm(2-OH)(5-X)PaPz] chelates were prepared and characterized by UV, IR, MS, and ICP spectroscopic methods. These metal-2-hydroxyarylazopyrazolone chelates were successfully separated on Novapak-$C_{18}$ column using methanol/water mixtures as a mobile phases. It was found that the chelates were eluted properly in an acceptable range of the capacity factor value($0{\leq}log\;k^{\prime}{\leq}1$). The dependence of the capacity factor(log k') on the volume fraction of water in the binary mobile phase showed a good linearity. Also, there was a good linear dependence of the capacity factor on the liquid-liquid extraction distribution ratio($D_c$) in methanol-water/n-pentadecane extraction system by the batch method. It suggested that the retention of the chelates in the reverse phase liquid chromatographic system be largely due to the solvophobic effect.

The elution behaviors in reversed-phase liquid chromatography were investigated thermodynamically for 2-hydroxy-arylazopyrazolone chelates with Ni(II), Cu(II), Co(III), Cr(III) on Novapak $C_{18}$ column. There was a good linear dependence of the capacity factor(k') on the variations of column temperature in van't Hoff plot. From this result, it was confirmed that the retention mechanism of these chelates in the reversed phase liquid chromatography system was invariant under the condition of various temperatures. For the most cases of the chelates studied, the dependence of capacity factor(1n k') on enthalpy$(-{\Delta}H)^{\circ}$, calculated by van't Hoff plot showed a good linearity(r=0.980~0.999) except [Pm(2-OH_(5-Cl)PaPz](r=0.787) and also the compensation temperatures(${\beta}$) showed constant values. The range of compensation temperature values calculated from the slope of $-{\Delta}H^{\circ}$ vs 1n k' plots was 374.3~806.9K. It was suggested that the retention of metal-2-hydroxy-arylazopyrazolone chelates in the reversed phase liquid chromatography system was largely affected by the hydrophobic effect.

Ultramafic xenoliths from southeastern part of Jeju Island can be grouped into two types: Type I and Type II. Type I xenoliths are magnesian and olivine-rich peridotite (mg#=89-91), which are commonly found at the outcrop. Most previous works have been focused on Type I xenoliths. Type II xenoliths, consisting of olivine, orthopyroxene and clinopyroxene with higher Fe and Ti components (mg#=77-83) and lower Mg, Ni, Cr, are reported in this study. They are less common with a more extensive compositional range. The studied Type II xenoliths are wehrlite, olivine-clinopyroxenite, olivine websterite, and websterite. They sometimes show ophitic textures in outcrops indicating cumulate natures. The textural characteristics, such as kink banding and more straight grain boundaries with triple junctions, are interpreted as the result of recrystallization and annealing. Large pyroxene grains have exsolution textures and show almost the same major compositions as small exsolution-free pyroxenes. Although the exsolution texture indicates a previous high-temperature history, all mineral phases are completely reequilibrated to some lower temperature. Orthopyroxenes replacing clinopyroxene margin or olivine indicate an orthopyroxene enrichment event. Mineral phases of Type II are compared with Type I xenoliths, gabbroic xenoliths, and the host basalts. Those from Type II xenoliths show a distinct discontinuity with those from Type I mantle xenoliths, whereas they show a continuous or overlapping relation with those from gabbroic xenoliths and the host basalts. Our petrographic and geochemical results suggest that the studied type II xenoliths appear to be cumulates derived from the host magma-related system, being formed by early fractional crystallization, although these xenoliths may not be directly linked to the host basalt.

AI-Mg-합금의 용융산화에 의해 생성되는 AlO$_{2}$O$_{3}$-복합재료의 미세구조에 미치는 합금원소의 영향을 연구하였다. AI-1Mg 합금과 AI-3Mg 합금을 기본으로하여 Si, Zn, Sn, Cu, Ni, Ca, Ce를 1, 3, 5 %를 무게비로 첨가하였다. 각 합금을 1473K에서 20시간 유지하여 산화시킨 후 산화층의 거시적 형상과 미세구조를 광학현미경으로 관찰하였다. 각 미세구조의 상분율을 상분석기로 측정하였다. 산화층의 최첨단면은 SEM과 EDX로 관찰하고 분석하였다. Cu나 Ni를 첨가한 합금으로부터 성장한 산화층의 미세구조가 가장 치밀하였다. Zn이 포함된 합금으로부터 성장한 산화층 최첨단 성장면에는 ZnO가 관찰되었다. Zn이 포함되지 않은 다른 합금의 성장 전면에는 항상 MgAi$_{2}$O$_{4}$상이 관찰되었다.

The synthesis of a novel N,C,N-type pincer, bis(N-aryl)-2-bromoisophthalaldimine 2,6-(2,6-Et2PhN = CH)2C6H3Br (1) and Ni(1)Br (2) is described. They were characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic techniques (IR and 1H NMR). Attempted ethylene polymerization catalyzed by 2 has been futile, leading only to the formation of a small amount of oily oligomers.
