Paralleled with the development of new materials we need to develop methods and techniques to reveal the environmental interaction and impact of the new materials. Small changes in the chemical structure or product formulation may render the product less environmentally adaptable. Degradation products formed from PLLA were identified after aging in different environments and their assimilation in the biotic environment was shown. Green and degradable hydrogels could be designed from renewable hemicelluloses and lactic acid. Hemicelluloses are a renewable and highly interesting raw material source for new green polymers.

Resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization with time-of-flight product imaging of the $N(^2D)$ atoms has been used to study the $N_2O$ photodissociation at 118.2 nm and the two-photon dissociation at 268.9 nm. These imaging experiments allowed the determination of the total kinetic energy distribution of the $NO(X^2{\prod})$ and $N(^2D_{5/2})$ products. The $NO(X^2{\prod})$ fragments resulting from the photodissociation processes are produced in highly vibrationally excited states. The two-photon photodissociation process yields a broad $NO(X^2{\prod})$ vibrational energy distribution, while the 118.2 nm dissociation appears to produce a vibrational distribution sharply peaked at $NO(X^2{\prod},\;{\nu}=14)$.

1,3-Oxathiolane sulfoxide 4 in which the sulfoxide oxygen and the 2-methyl group are on the same face of the oxathiolane ring undergoes a sigmatropic rearrangement to produce a ring expansion product. The structure of this product would be dihydro-1,4-oxathiin 6 or isomeric exo compound 7. This paper describes physical and chemical methods to determine the correct structure of the two alternatives. Thus, $^1HNMR$, UV spectroscopies, and mass spectrometry showed that the product actually obtained had the structure 6. It was also found that from deuteration reactions of the product the compound 7 was initaly formed and then tautomerized to endo compound 6.

Isothermal pyrolysis of high density polyethylene(HDPE), polypropylene(PP) and polystyrene(PS) was performed at $450^{\circ}C$, respectively. The effect of pyrolysis time on yield and product composition was investigated. Conversion and liquid yield obtained during HDPE pyrolysis continuously increased with time up to 80minutes, but those of PP and PS did not largely change after 35minutes. Each liquid product formed during the pyrolysis was classified into gasoline, kerosene, light oil and wax according to the distillation temperature based on the petroleum product quality standard of Korea Petroleum Quality Inspection Institute. The major liquid product of HDPE pyrolysis was light oiH34 wt.% based on the amount of HDPE treated) and the amounts of the other liquid ingredients(gasoline, kerosene and wax) were almost the same. On the other hand, the pyrolysis of PP produced 27 wt.% gasoline, 22 wt.% kerosene, 24 wt.% light oil and 13wt.% wax, and the pyrolysis of PS produced 56 wt.% gasoline, 12 wt.% kerosene, 9 wt.% light oil and 13 wt.% wax.

In this work, soft sensor based on image anlaysis is proposed for quantitatively estimating the visual appearance of manufactured products and is applied to quality monitoring. The methodology consists of three steps; (1) textural feature extraction from product images using wavelet transform, (2) numerical estimation of the product appearance through projection of the textural features on subspace, and (3) use of latent variables of textural features (i.e., numerical estimates of product appearance). The focus of this approach is on the consistent and quantitative estimation of continuous variations in visual appearance rather than on classification into discrete classes. This approach is illustrated through the application to the estimation and monitoring of the appearance of engineered stone countertops.

Internal heat generation is one of the insidious conditions affecting the quality of an industrial product after it is cast, coated, molded, forged or laminated. Frequently, the product is pressed into service before the exothermic chemical reactions in the generic material has been completed. The heat liberated from this continuing chemical reaction or the residual deformation from the rheological activities in the materials must be adequately removed or prevented, or the product may be discolored, warped, weakened or even "ignited" spontaneously. Numerous instances of premature structural failures, product-recalls, and/or system-malfunctions have been recorded in recent history. The Coulee Dam was poured with pre-chilled concrete just to negate this freakish encore. It is well-known that concrete (a non-isotropic conducting medium), for instance, takes 28 days to develop its full strength. During this period of curing it is conceivable that the processes of internal heat generation, heat conduction and heat dissipation take place simultaneously inside the medium.he medium.

An experimental study on the nascent product of the OH heterogeneous reaction with NaCl was performed under dry and wet conditions using a bead-filled flow tube system coupled to a high-pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometer. The ozone concentration in the flow tube for the atomic hydrogen removal was varied in order to control the conversion reaction of molecular chlorine into HCl for the identification of the nascent product. The mass spectrometric observation was that the $O_3$ introduction reduced the concentration HCl, while it increased the concentration of $Cl_2$ and ClO. Based on the experimental results, we suggest that the nascent product of the titled reaction is gaseous $Cl_2$, which is followed by fast conversion into HCl in presence of H. No significant difference in the concentration profile between under dry and wet (RH = 2%) conditions was observed.

Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy has been successfully utilized for the rapid identification of six typical petroleum products such as light straight-run (LSR), naphtha, kerosine, light gas oil (LGO), gasoline, and diesel. The spectral features of each product were reasonably differentiated in the NIR region, and the spectral differences provided enough qualitative spectral information for discrimination. For discrimination, principal component analysis (PCA) combined with Mahalanobis distance was used to identify each petroleum product from NIR spectra. The results showed that each product was accurately identified with an accuracy over 95%. Most noticeably, LSR, kerosine, gasoline, and diesel samples were predicted with identification accuracy of 99%. The overall results ensure that a portable NIR instrument combined with a multivariate qualitative discrimination method can be efficiently utilized for rapid and simple identification of petroleum products. This is especially important when local at-site measurements are necessary, such as accidental petroleum leakage and regulation of illegal product blending.

Reactions of arenealdehyde 2-pyridylhydrazones (1) with thianthrene cation radical ($Th^{+·}$) and tris(2,4-dibromophenyl)aminium hexachloroantimonate ($Ar_3N^{+·}SbCl_6^-$) were investigated. The major product was switched depending on the cation radical being used. That is, s-triazolo[4,3-α]pyridines (2), an intramolecular cyclization product, and 1-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazoles (3), an intermolecular cycloaddition product, were obtained as a major product when reacted with $Th^{+·}$ and $Ar_3N^{+·}$, respectively in nitrile solvents. The plausible mechanisms are proposed based on both the reduction potentials of $Th^{+·}$ and $Ar_3N^{+·}$ and control experiments.

This experiment was carried out to compare with the physico-chemical properties of granular fused magnesium phosphates which were two domestic products(Pungnong Biryo Industrial Co., LTD and Kyunggi Chemical Industrial Co., LTD) and a imported Chinese product. The changes of pH, distribution of particle size, disintegration in water and in soil, hardness in soil, chemical composition, and dissolution rates in water, in soil and in 2% citric acid solution were investigated. The changes in pH were bigger in Jungmun series(black volcanic soil), in the imported chinese product, and in Jungmun series with the larger quantities applied. The domestic products were lower in pH, calcium, alkalinity and 1/2N-HCl soluble silicate than the Chinese product but total(Aqua regia) soluble phosphate, 2% citric acid soluble phosphate, 1/2N-HCl soluble and 2% citric acid soluble magnesium, and 2% citric acid soluble manganese concentration were similar among the domestic products and the imported product. In particle sizes, Chinese product was the biggest, Kyunggi product was the next, and Pungnong product was the smallest. The changes of disintegration rate in water and in soil were smaller in Pungnong and Kyunggi products at the early days of dissolution, and there were decreased with the order of Kyunggi product> Chinese product> Pungnong product at the latter days. The hardness of the products in soil was the strongest in Kyunggi product, the next was Pungnong product and Chinese product was the weakest so as to hardly measurable. The changing dissolution rates of 2% citric acid soluble phosphate concentration of granular fused magnesium phosphate products were the highest in Kyunggi product and the lowest in Pungnong product at the early days, the three products were dissolved over 90% within 50 days, and there were no clear difference among the products after 70 days of dissolution. The dissolution rates of 2% citric acid soluble phosphate concentration of granular fused magnesium phosphate products in soil were the highest in Pungnong product and Chinese product was the lowest, but they were less than 60% in 100 days of dissolution.
