  • The kinetics of isothermal crystallization in blends of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(styrene-co-acrylic acid) (SAA) has been examined as a function of the blend ratio, the copolymer composition, and the crystallization temperature, based on the Avrami eauation. The Avrami exponents were mostly chose to 2, independent of the crystallization temperature. The crystallization rate of PEO in PEO/SAA blends decreased with the increase of SAA content. And also, the higher the acrylic acid content in the SAA copolymer, 7he slower the crystallization rate of PEO in the blends.

  • Polystyrene-poly(caprolactone) (PS-PCL) block copolymer was synthesized from macroazoinitiator, and its compatibilizing effect in poly(2, 6-dimethyl-1, 4-phenylene oxide) (PPO)/poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) (SAN, 25wt% acrylonitrile) blend was studied. PS block and PCL block in the block copolymer had shown miscibility with PPO and SAN respectively. The dissolution of SAN into PPO domain was promoted by the addition of the PS-PCL block copolymer.

  • The epoxide hydrolase (EH) of Rhodotorula glutinis which has a high enantioselectivity against aromatic epoxide substrates was expressed to high levels in Escherichia coli based on codon usage. We analysed the Preference of codon usage between the yeast, R. glutinis, and bacteria, E. coli. E. coli, Rosetta(DE3)pLysS, harbors pRARE plasmid with tRNA genes for rare-codons was employed as a host strain. The recombinant E. coli expressing R. glutinis EH showed an enhanced enantioselective hydrolysis activity toward racemic styrene oxide. Enantiopure (S)-styrene oxide with a high enantiopurity of 99% ee (enantiomeric excess) was obtained from racemic substrates.

  • A yeast strain utilizing styrene epoxide as a sole carbon and energy source was isolated from soil samples for the production of enantiopure of styrene epoxide by kinetic resolution. The strain, identified as a Rhodosporidium toruloides SJ-4, expressed an epoxide hydrolase which preferentially converted (R)-styrene epoxide into the corresponding diol. A maximum activity of 135 U/L was observed when biomass (dry cell mass) reached 6.7 g/L at 21 h of batch culture. Under the partially optimized reaction conditions ($35^{\circ}C$ and pH 8.0), the optically pure (S)-styrene epoxide was obtained with the yield of 21% when the initial substrate concentration was 100 mM. The reaction was completed at 9 h.

  • The dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene with carbon dioxide has been carried out over ZSM-5 zeolite-supported iron oxide catalyst as well as commercial catalyst (K-Fe2O3) and unsupported iron oxide (Fe3O4) for comparison. In the dehydrogenation over the ZSM-5 zeolite-supported iron oxide catalyst, ethylbenzene is predominantly converted to styrene by an oxidative pathway in the presence of excess carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide in this reaction is found to play a role as an oxidant for promoting catalytic activity as well as coke resistance of catalyst. On the other hand, both of commercial catalyst and unsupported Fe2O4 exhibit considerable decrease in catalytic activity under the same condition. It is suggested that an active phase for the dehydrogenation with carbon dioxide over ZSM-5 zeolite-supported iron oxide catalyst would be rather a reduced and isolated magnetite (Fe3O4)-like phase having oxygen deficiency in the zeolite matrix.
