Conducting polyaniline-poly($\varepsilon$-caprolactone) polymer composites were synthesized via in situ deposition techniques. By dissolving different weight percentages of poly($\varepsilon$-caprolactone) (PCL) (10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50%), the oxidative polymerization of aniline was achieved using ammonium persulfate as an oxidant. FTIR, UV-vis spectra, and X-ray diffraction studies support a strong interaction between polyaniline (PANI) and PCL. Structural morphology of the PANI-PCL polymer composites was studied using scanned electron microscopy (SEM) and transmittance electron microscopy (TEM), and thermal stability was analyzed by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) technique. The temperature-dependent DC conductivity of PANI-PCL polymer composite films was studied in the range of 305-475 K, which revealed a semiconducting behavior in the transport properties of the polymer films. Conductivity increased with the increase of PCL in below critical level, however conductivity of the polymer film was decreased with increase of PCL concentration higher than the critical value.

Using sol-gel processing method, thin films of lathanum modified lead titanate(PLT) on Corning 7059 glass were prepared. A differential thermal analysis (DTA/TG) curve of gel powder and infrared spectra (FT-IR) of the films were measured to estimate residual organices in them. The heat-treated films were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD). Microstructures of the films were observed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Optical properties of the films were determined by a UV-VIS spectrophotometer. The waveguiding properties and optical attenuation were measured with the end coupling method and the cut back method. Effects of the drying conditions on the transmittance and the propagation loss of the films were investigated. Experimemtal results showed that the content of residual organics in the film decreased as the drying temperature of the film increased. As the La content of the film increased, the grain size decreased and the transmittance increased. The transmittances of the films increased with the increasing of the drying temperature. The propagation losses in the film decreased as the drying temperature increased.

The interaction of omeprazole(OMP) with $\gamma$-cyclodextrin($\gamma$-CyD) was investigated by solubility study and the complexation was confirmed by means of UV/VIS spectrophotometer, circular dichroism, differential scanning calorimeter, and $^{1}$H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. The stability, dissolution rate, and partition coefficient of the complex were measured. The results present that the benzimidazole moiety and a part of pyridine ring containing sulfur atom of OMP might be included into the cavity of $\gamma$-CyD and the formation type of inclusion complex appeared to be B$_{s}$. The stoichiometric ratio of OMP to $\gamma$-CyD in the complex was found to be 1:1 and the stability constant of the complex found to be 97.1 M$^{-1}$. And the dissolution rate of OMP was markedly increased by inclusion complex formation with $\gamma$-CyD, and so it was above 90% in 5 min. from solid complex. Oil to water partition coefficient of OMP-$\gamma$-CyD complex was 60, which is significantly higher than that of OMP itself, 36.4. The degradation rate constant of OMP were greater than OMP-$\gamma$-CyD complex in aqueous solutions of various pHs, and the half lives of OMP and OMP-$\gamma$-CyD at pH 9 were 279.2 and 509.9 days, respectively, showing that the complex was more stable than OMP, therefore it was thought that OMP was stabilized by inclusion formation with $\gamma$-CyD.

In borohydride-protected nanosilvers in laponite sol, the silver particles aggregate to form short chains and a dumbbell shape. The $^{1}H$ NMR measurements in this study represent, to our knowledge, the first observation of proton resonances of borohydride-protected nanosilvers in aqueous solution. Borohydride on nanosilver can be exchanged with 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) or trioctylphosphine (TOP). Transmission electron microscopy and UV-Vis spectroscopy data show that the number of aggregated silver nanoparticles decreases upon addition of aforementioned ligands due to the formation of silver MPCs (monolayer-protected clusters). Adsorption of MUA or TOP on nanosilver is confirmed through the observation of broad proton resonances of MPCs in $^{1}H$ NMR spectra.

$Fe_2O_3,\;Ag_2O,\;CaWO_4$ and $Gd_2O_2S$:Tb loaded on titanium dioxide photocatalysts (P25, Degussa) were prepared by a calcination. Their composite films containing water-born polyurethane used as a material for immobilization were obtained by spray coating technique. The photocatalytic activity of the titanium dioxide films was characterized by decrease of UV-vis absorption spectra for methylene blue and gas chromatography for photocatalytic decomposition of formaldehyde diluted in water. It was shown that the $Gd_2O_2S$:Tb modified titanium dioxide films had good photocatalytic properties and followed the first-order kinetic model with regard to photocatalytic decoloration of methylene blue. Especially in formaldehyde photodegradation experiment, decrease rate of concentration of the titanium dioxide films with $Gd_2O_2S$:Tb modifying was about 35% larger than that of the unloaded titanium dioxide film.

Two novel binuclear metal-organic coordination complexes [$Cd_2(Hdpa)_4(bpy)_2$] (1), [$Dy_2(dpa)_2(bpy)_2(NO_3)_2-(H_2O)_2$](bpy) (2) (where $H_2dpa$ = biphenyl-2,2'-dicarboxylic acid, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, spectral method (IR), elemental analysis (EA), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), electronic spectra (UV-vis), fluorescent in the solid state and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Complexes 1-2 crystallizes isomorphously in the Triclinic space group P-1. The ${\pi}-{\pi}$ stacking interactions and hydrogen-bonds play a vital role in determining the crystal packing and construction of the extended 3-D supramolecular network.

In this study, N doped $TiO_2$ (TiO-N) thin film was prepared by DC magnetron sputtering method to show the photocatalytic activity in a visible range. Various gases (Ar, $O_2\;and\;N_2$) were used and Ti target was impressed by 1.2 kW -5.8 kW power range. The hysteresis of TiO-N thin film as a function of discharge voltage wasn't observed in 1.2 and 2.9kW of applied power. Cross sections and surfaces of thin films by FE-SEM were tiny and dense particle sizes of both films with normal cylindrical structures. XRD pattern of $TiO_2$ and TiO-N thin films was appeared by only anatase peak. Red shift in UV-Vis adsorption spectra was investigated TiO-N thin film. Photoactivity was evaluated by removal rate measurement of suncion yellow among reactive dyes. The photodegradation rate of $TiO_2$ thin film on visible radiation was shown little efficiency but TiO-N was about 18%.

The present study compared the Maillard reaction products (MRPs) derived from aqueous and ethanolic fructoseglycine and its oligomer (dimer and trimer) solutions. The pH was lower in glycine (G) than in diglycine (DG) and triglycine (TG) in both aqueous and ethanolic solutions, but the pH difference between the DG and TG was not significant. MRPs derived from the DG had a greater absorbance at 294 and 420 nm in ethanolic solution than in an aqueous solution. In particular, the loss of sugar was higher in ethanolic solution than in aqueous solution. Enolization of fructose was observed in both aqueous and ethanolic MRP solutions; however, enolization was not observed for the G in aqueous MRP solutions. The glycine oligomer content in ethanolic MRP solutions remained higher than that in aqueous MRP solutions. Furthermore, neither diglycine nor triglycine were detected in the G aqueous or ethanolic MRP solutions, while triglycine was detected in both the DG aqueous and ethanolic MRP solutions. Absorption in the ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectra was higher with MRPs derived from the ethanolic solution than with those derived from the aqueous solution. MRPs derived from the DG in an ethanolic solution showed the highest absorption intensity.

To take an information of substitutent effect and thermodynamic of association at thiacarbocyanines, association constant $K_{D}$, free energy of association $\Delta$ $G_{D}$, enthalpies of association $\Delta$ $H_{D}$ were measured by spectrophotometer according to dependence on concentration of dyes and temperature of aqueous MeOH system. With increase of concentration dyes or decrease of temperature of aqueous MeOH system, absorption spectra of dyes exhibited equlilibria shift toward the dimer. Phenyl meso substituted thiacarbicyanine, DyeIII, resulted in higher $K_{D}$ and $\Delta$ $G_{D}$ values than DyeI and DyeII. To easily make an association of thacarbicyanine, meso substutituent group need to be a flat structure, which will make a park as well as lain tiles.tiles.ructure, which will make a park as well as lain tiles.les.
