Single step electrodeposition of $Cu_2ZnSnS_4$ (CZTS) for solar cell applications was studied using an aqueous thiocyanate based electrolyte. The sodium thiocyanate complexing agent was found to decrease the difference in the deposition potential of the elements. X-ray diffraction analysis of the samples indicates the formation of kesterite phase CZTS. UV-vis studies reveal the band gap of the deposits to be in the range of 1.2 - 1.5 eV. The thickness of the deposit was found to decrease with increase in pH of the electrolyte. Nearly stoichiometric composition was obtained for CZTS films coated at pH 2 and 2.5. I-V characterization of the film with indium tin oxide (ITO) substrate in the presence and the absence of light source indicate that the resistance decrease significantly in the presence of light indicating suitability of the deposits for solar cell applications. Results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopic studies reveal that the cathodic process for sulfur reduction is the slowest among all the elements.

A stepwise gradient elution with two wavelengths detection was performed for the separation and determination of some anions in saline water. The eight anions such as iodate, bromate, nitrite, bromide, nitrate, chromate, iodide and thiocyanate were successfully separated using AS-7 column and sodium chloride/sodium phosphate buffer solution as an eluant within 40 min. The separation behaviors of anions were studied at various sodium chloride concentrations. The peak shapes of anions of bromate, nitrite, bromide and nitrate gradually broadened as the concentration of sodium chloride increased until 1.0 M in the sample solutions. However, no effect was observed in the peak shapes of chromate, iodide and thiocynate. A good linearity was obtained at the range of ppm(mg/L). The detection limit was proved to be $10-720{\mu}g/L$ for the eight anions with $50{\mu}L$ injection volume. This method was applied to the determination of $Br^-$, ${NO_3}^-$ and $I^-$ in sea water.

The changes of contents in trimethylamine oxide nitrogen(TMAO-N), trimethylamine nitrogen(TMA-N), dimethylamine nitrogen(DMA-N), nitrite nitrogen(nitrite-N), nitrate nitrogen(nitrate-N) and the effect on the formation of N-nitrosamine(NA) during fermentation were investigated with salted anchovy added different amounts of sodium nitrite, sodium nitrate and ascorbic acid, respectively. When the sodium nitrite was added in salted anchovy, the contents of nitrite-N was decreased during fermentation . Whereas the formation of N-nitrosodimethylamine(NDMA ) was increased . Contents of TMAO-N was decreased, while TMA-N and DMA-N were increased during fermentation in all samples. Addition of ascorbic acid inhibited the formation of NDMA significantly. The formation of NDMA was inhibited by 81.3% at the concentration of 130mM as compared with non-added the control group. The aqueous model system was used for the evaluation of ascorbic acid(inhibitor) or thiocyanate (promoter) on the formation of NDMA using salt-fermented anchovy added with sodium nitrite. The optimum pH on the formation of NDMA was shown to be 3.8, and ascorbic acid inhibited the formation of NDMA whereas thiocyanate promoted. NDMA was not detected in the salt-fermented anchovy (control sample). However it is a possibility to form carcinogenic NDMA in stomach if both saltfer-mented anchovy and the materials contained abundant nitrite or nitrate were took in.

Fricke dosimeter solution in chemical dosimeters consists of Ferrous sulfate, Sodium chloride and Sulfuric acid. Authors made a new experiment on the characteristics of dosimeter solution with Ammonium Thiocyanate and the results obtained were as follows; 1. The chemical oxidation response after irradiation was very rapid(within fifteen minutes). 2. A preventive measure of the spontaneous oxidation as time goes on was possible to use 0.1 mM instead of 1mM Ferrous sulfate solution. 3. 477nm in wavelength of spectrophotometer was most ideal to measure optical density in this solution

The changes of contents of trimethylamine oxide nitrogen (TMAO-N), trimethylamine nitrogen (TMA-N), dimethylamine nitrogen (DMA-N), nitrite nitrogen (nitrite-N), nitrate nitrogen (nitrate-N) and N-nitrosamine (NA) of salt-fermented small shrimp were investigated during fermentation. The contents of TMAO-N decreased, while TMA-N and DMA-N increased during fermentation in all samples. Contents of nitrite-N decreased in the samples supplemented with sodium nitrite during fermentation, whereas the formation of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) increased. Treatment of ascorbic acid revealed inhibiting effort on NDMA formation compared with the control. The model system was used for the evaluation of ascorbic acid (inhibitor) or thiocyanate (promoter) on the formation of NDMA using salt-fermented small shrimp supplemented with sodium nitrite, The optimum pH for the formation of NDMA was 3.5, and ascorbic acid inhibited the formation of NDMA whereas thiocyanate promoted.

A continuous flow system has been developed to determine trace Cu(II), Mn(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) in a large volume of water samples by a solvent sublation technique. The mixed solution of 1,10-phenanthroline(phen) and thiocyanate ion was used as ligands for the formation of their ternary complexes. The continuous system was constructed in this laboratory with a peristaltic pump, a mini shaker, three mixing bottles and a flotation cell by connecting each part with a polyethylene tube. The flotation conditions such as the flow rate of sample solution and the injection rates of ligand, buffer and surfactant solutions have been investigated to obtain the best sublation efficiencies. Each solution flowed into the flotation cell through each polyethylene tube by the peristaltic pumps. The ternary complexes were floated and extracted into MIBK in a flotation cell of 2 L by bubbling a nitrogen gas. The absorbances of extracted analytes in MIBK were directly measured by graphite furnace-AAS. The concentrations of 1,10-phenanthroline and thiocyanate ion were $2.6\;{\times}\;10^{-3}$ M and $2.3\;{\times}\;10^{-2}$ M in the mixed solution, respectively. The pH of sample solution was adjusted to 5.0 with a buffer solution and 1%(m/v) sodium lauryl sulphate solution was added as a surfactant to support the effective flotation of the complexes. The $N_2$ gas was bubbled at 30 mL/min for 90 minutes for 20 L of sample. Reproducible results of less than 10% RSD and recoveries of 80-120% could be obtained in real samples.

The reaction of stoichiometric amount of $FeCl_2{\cdot}4H_2O$, (2-pyridylmethyl, 3-pyridylmethyl)amine (2,3-pyma) and sodium azide/sodium thiocyanate in methanol under aerobic conditions affords the dinuclear Fe(III) complexes, [(2,3-pyma) $(N_3)_2Fe({\mu}-OCH_3)_2Fe(N_3)_2$(2,3-pyma)]${\cdot}CH_3OH$ (1) and [(2,3-pyma)$(NCS)_2Fe({\mu}-OCH_3)_2Fe(NCS)_2$(2,3-pyma)] (2) in good yield. Two bis-methoxy-bridged diiron(III) complexes are isolated and characterized. The coordination geometries around iron(III) ions in 1 and 2 are the same tetragonally distorted octahedron. The iron(III) ions are coordinated by two nitrogens of a 2,3-pyma, two nitrogens of two azide/thiocyanate ions, and two oxygens of two methoxy groups. Both compounds are isomorphous. The structures of 1 and 2 display the C-$H{\cdots}\pi$ and/or $\pi-\pi$ stacking interactions as well as hydrogen bonding interactions, respectively. Compounds 1 and 2 show significant antiferromagnetic couplings through the bridged methoxy groups between the iron(III) ions in the temperature range from 5 to 300 K ($H=-2JS_1{\cdot}S_2$, J=-19.1 and $-13.9\;cm^{-1}$ for 1 and 2).
