The complex, K3[La(TTHA)]5H,O, was prepared and its crystal structure was analyzed by single crystal X-ray diffraction method. In the complex, the La(Ⅲ) ion adopts a ten-coordinate geometry with four nitrogen atoms and six carboxyl oxygen atoms from the same TTHA ligand molecule. Its coordination polyhedron can be described as a distorted bicapped square antiprism. Each [La(TTHA)]3- anion is linked by K+ cations via carboxyl groups of TTHA ligand to form a three dimensional crystal structure. The thermal properties were investigated by TG and DTA techniques in argon atmosphere. The materials resulting from thermal treatment were La(OH)3 and K2O which were identified by powder X-ray diffraction technique.

A novel energetic compound, bifurazano[3,4-b:3',4'-f]furoxano[3'',4''-d] oxacyclohetpatriene (BFFO), was synthesized through special etherification and its structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal of $BFFO{\cdot}H_2O$ is monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c with crystal parameters of a = $9.324(4){\AA}$, b = $9.727(4){\AA}$, c = $10.391(4){\AA}$, ${\beta}=106.305(6)^{\circ}$, V = $904.5(6){\AA}^3$, Z = 4, ${\mu}=0.17mm^{-1}$, F(000) = 512 and $D_c=1.866g\;cm^{-3}$. Spectroscopic properties and thermal behaviors of BFFO were studied. BFFO presents good detonation properties.

The purpose of this study was to establish whether there are differences in the productivity of the same silkworm(Bombyx mori L.) parthenoclones, obtained by two different methods-thermal and combined, as well as to study their genotype structure by several enzyme loci. It was established that all individuals of parthenoclones Joana, Joana(${\downarrow}{\uparrow}$), Pohi and Pohi(${\downarrow}{\uparrow}$), are homozygous by the studied esterase and phosphoglucomutase loci, which substantiated the clones' genetic stability. By comparative analysis of some biological and technological properties, it was found that parthenoclone Pohi(${\downarrow}{\uparrow}$) obtained by low-high temperature activation is characterized by higher values of these properties as compared to parthenoclone Pohi obtained by thermal parthenogenesis. Comparing the two methods of inducing ameiotic parthenogenetic development, we would recommend that parthenoclone Joana is sustained by thermal parthenogenesis, and parthenoclone Pohi-by the combined method (low-high temperature).

In this work, two thermal cationic latent catalysts, i.e., triphenyl benzyl phosphonium hexafluoroantimonate (TBPH) and benzyl 2-methylpyrazinium hexafluoroantimonate (BMPH) were newly synthesized. And the thermal and mechanical properties of difunctional epoxy (diglycidylether of bisphenol h, DGEBA) resins initiated by 1 phr of either TBPH or BMPH catalyst were investigated. As experimental results, the epoxy/TBPH system showed higher curing temperature and critical stress intensity factor ($K_{IC}$) than those of epoxy/BMPH. This could be interpreted in terms of slow thermal diffusion rate and bulk structure of four phenyl groups in TBPH. However, the decomposed activation energy determined from Coats-Redfern method was lower in the case of epoxy/TBPH. This result was probably due to the fact that broken short chain structure was developed by steric hindrance of TBPH.

In this paper, the elastic epoxy added elastomer having viscoelasticity to existing epoxy was measured thermal, structural properties through TGA(Thermogravimetric Analysis) and FESEM(Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope). Specimens were made of dumbbell forms by the ratio of 5[phr], 10[phr], 15[phr], and 20[phr] by regulation with elastomer contents. The measurement temperature dimensions of TGA were $0[^{\circ}C]\;to\;800[^{\circ}C]$, and rising temperature was $5[^{\circ}C/min]$. And we observed structure through FESEM at the magnification of 1000times with the voltage of 15[kV] after breaking by quenching specimens. As thermal analysis results, we could know that thermal and structural properties was improved quantity according to decrease of elastomer contents. In general, thermal, structural properties of 15[phr] was excellent among the specimens.

Effects of rapid thermal annealing of bismuth telluride thin films on their thermoelectric properties were investigated. Films with four different compositions were elaborated by co-sputtering of Bi and Te targets. Rapid thermal treatments in range of $300{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ were carried out during 10 minutes under the reducing atmosphere (Ar with 10% $H_2$). As the temperature of thermal treatment increased, carrier concentrations of films decreased while their mobilities increased. These changes were clearly observed for the films close to the stoichiometric composition. Rapid thermal treatment was found to be effective in improving the thermoelectric properties of $Bi_2Te_3$ films. Recrystallization of $Bi_2Te_3$ phase has caused the enhancement of thermoelectric properties, along with the decrease of the carrier concentration. Maximum values of Seebeck coefficient and power factor were obtained for the films treated at $400^{\circ}C$ (about $-128{\mu}V/K$ and $9{\times}10^{-4}\;W/K^2m$, respectively). With further higher temperature ($500^{\circ}C$), thermoelectric properties deteriorated due to the evaporation of Te element and subsequent disruption of film's structure.

In this study, the influence of dilauroyl peroxide on mechanical and thermal properties of different polypropylene (PP) matrices was investigated. Polypropylene matrices, different molecular weight isotactic PP containing 0.01, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06, 0.08, and 0.1 wt% of dilauroyl peroxide (DLP) were prepared by using a single-screw extruder. The effect of the visbreaking agent (DLP) on mechanical, physical, thermal and morphological properties of different molecular weight PP had been studied. Mechanical properties (tensile strength at break point, at yield and elongation at break point), melt flow index (MFI), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) analyses of these matrices were examined. Melting ($T_m$) and crystallization ($T_c$) temperatures, crystallinity ratio (%) and enthalpies were determined. The microstructure of isotactic polypropylene matrix was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). From SEM analysis, it was observed that the surface disorder increased by the increasing amount of DLP. As a result of DSC analyses, the crystallinity ratio of the PP matrices has varied between 1.64-7.27%. Mechanical properties of the matrices have been improved. Particularly, the mechanical tests of PP have given interesting results when compounded with 0.06-0.08 wt% dilauroyl peroxide (DLP). Mechanical properties and thermal decomposition processes were all changed by increasing the amount of DLP in the matrix structure.

This review examines computational simulations of thermoelectric properties, such as electrical conductivity, Seebeck coefficient, and thermal conductivity. With increasing computing power and the development of several efficient simulation codes for electronic structure and transport properties calculations, we can evaluate all the thermoelectric properties within the first-principles calculations with the relaxation time approximation. This review presents the basic principles of electrical and thermal transport equations and how they evaluate properties from the first-principles calculations. As a model case, this review presents results on $Bi_2Te_3$ and Si. Even though there is still an unsolved parameter such as the relaxation time, the effectiveness of the computational simulations on the transport properties will provide much help to experimental scientist researching novel thermoelectric materials.
