The products from polymer pyrolysis at $450^{\circ}$ are cooled with ice, then liquid and gaseous portions are analysed by gas chromatography. Di-2-ethyl hexyl sebacate column, silicone oil column, silica gel column and tetraethyleneglycol dimethylether column, which was most effective for the separation of hydrocarbon gases, are used. Identification of isomers could be secured more effectively by gas chromatography than mass spectrometry. Elucidation of the mechanism for thermal decomposition of polymers could be done through the identification of pyrolysis products. Although more extensive work is needed, some patterns of polymer pyrolysis are discussed.

Aliphatic hydrocarbon gases from rubber pyrolysis have been identified by gas chromatography with tetraethyleneglycol dimethylether column. Rubbers used in this work are polyisoprene, SBR, NBR, polybutadiene, buthyl rubber, polychloroprene and polyurethane rubber. The chromatogram is characteristic for each polymer. Author proposes a method of identification of synthetic rubbers by gas chromatograph of pyrolyzed gas. Sample is pyrolyzed at $450^{\circ}C$ under nitrogen or more effectively helium and gaseous portion, which eliminated liquid condensate, is passed to the column. The appearance of exclusively large peak of isoprene, isobutylene and carbon dioxide shows the presence of polyisoprene, polyisobutylene and polyurethane, respectively. Large peak of butadiene will appear in case of polybutadiene, SBR and NBR, but SBR can be identified through the styrene peak in gas chromatogram of liquid pyrolyzate and NBR can be identified by the evolution of hydrogen cyanide during pyrolysis. Polychloroprene is identified by the evolution of hydrogen chloride. This method could be applied to the identification of copolymer or polymer blend.

In this work, pool boiling heat transfer coefficients (HTCs) of five hydrocarbon refrigerants of propylene, propane, isobutane, butane and dimethylether (DME) were measured at the liquid temperature of $7^{\circ}C$ on a 26 fpi low fin tube, Turbo-B, and Thermoexcel-E tubes. All data were taken from 80 to $10kW/m^2$ in the decreasing order of heat flux. The data of hydrocarbon refrigerants showed a typical trend that nucleate boiling HTCs obtained on enhanced tubes also increase with the vapor pressure. Fluids with lower reduced pressure such as DME, isobutane, and butane took more advantage of the heat transfer enhancement mechanism of enhanced tubes than those enhancement ratios of $2.3\sim9.4$ among the tubes tested due to its sub-channels and re-entrant cavities.

Three TNF-$\alpha$inhibitory lignans were isolated from the flower buds of Magnolia fargesii through bioassay-guided isolation. They were identified as eudesmin, magnolin and lirioresinol-B dimethylether on the basis of their spectroscopic data. All three lignans showed inhibitory effects on TNF-$\alpha$ production in LPS-stimulated murine macrophage cell line, RAW264.7 and eudesmin showed the strongest activity ($IC_{50}=51{\mu}M)$.

Polyurethane was used as matrix for polymer electrolytes with liquid electrolyte consist of organic solvent as ethylene carbonate(EC), propylene carbonate(PC), and tetraethylene glycol dimethylether(TG) and 1M $LiCF_3SO_3$, which has high mechanical strength and porosity. Electrochemical properties fur polyurethane electrolytes with various liquid electrolytes were evaluated. The amount of immersed liquid electrolyte for TG with 1M $LiCF_3SO_3$ was increased to about $750\%$ by weight, and initial discharge capacity and cycle performance was better than others. Ionic conductivity for TG/EC(v/v,1:1) and PC/EC(v/v, 1:1) with 1M $LiCF_3SO_3$ was about $3.15\times10^{-3} S/cm, \;3.18\times10^{-3}S/cm$

Phytochemical study of the constitutive polyphenolics of the flower aqueous alcohol extract of Tamarix tetragyna was carried out. The new sulphated flavonol, quercetin 3',4'-dimethyl ether $3-O-KSO_3$ as well as the new natural galloyl glucose, $2-O-galloyl-({\alpha}/{\beta})-^4C_1-glucopyranose$ were isolated and characterized. The known sulphated flavonols, kaempferol 7,4-dimethyl ether $3,5-di-O-KSO_3$, quercetin 7-methyl ether $3,3',4'-tri-O-KSO_3$, quercetin 7,4'-dimethyl ether $3-O-KSO_3$ and quercetin $3-O-KSO_3$ and the known sulphated phenolics, isoferulic acid $3-O-KSO_3$ and ellagic acid 4,4'-dimethyl ether $3-O-KSO_3$ were also separated and identified. The structures were established by conventional methods of analysis and confirmed by $^1H-,\;^{13}C-NMR$ and negative ESI-mass spectrometry. 2D-homonuclear chemical shift correlation NMR experiment was applied for the new natural galloylglucose.

A study has been made on the applicability of gas-liquid partition chromatography to the qualitative and quantitative analysis of complex mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons. While phthalate columns are widely used for this $purpose^9$, they separates neither saturated hydrocarbons from the unsaturated nor n-butane from isobutene or butene-1, therefore combined columns such as phthalate and dimethylsulfolane have been used for the perfect separation of gaseous hydrocarbons. It is shown by this study, however, that hydrocarbons having $C_1$ through $C_4$ can be separated with a 2-meters tetraethyleneglycol dimethylether column except ethane from ethylene, and trans-from cis-2-butene especially operated at $15^{\circ}C$$ using helium as the carrier gas. The column effluents were in order of methane, (ethane, ethylene), propane, propylene, isobutane, n-butane, isobutylene, butene-1, (trans-& cis-2-butene, isopentane), (butadiene-1, 3, n-pentane). Two kinds of liquified petroleum gases in market are analysed qualitatively and quantitatively. The results indicate that use of this 2-meters TEGDE column permits the separation and identification of all the commonly encountered aliphatic gaseous hydrocarbons.

In this work, pool boiling heat transfer coefficients (HTCs) of hydrocarbon refrigerants are measured from a horizontal smooth tube of 19.0 mm outside diameter. Tested pure refrigerants are Propylene, Propane, Isobutane, Butane and Dimethylether (DME). The pool temperature was maintained at saturation temperature of $7^{\circ}C$ and heat flux was varied from $10kW/m^2$ to $80kW/m^2$ with an interval of $10kW/m^2$. Wall temperatures were measured directly by thermocouple hole of 0.5 mm out-diameter, 152 mm long and inserting ungrounded sheathed thermocouples from the side of the tube. Tested results show that HTCs of Propane, Propylene are 2.5%, 10.4% higher than those of R22 while those of Butane and Isobutane are 55.2%, 44.3% lower than those of R22 respectively. For pure refrigerants, new correlation can be applied to all of CFCs, HCFCS, HFCs, as well as hydrocarbons was developed. The mean deviation was 4.6%.

In order to remove $CO_2$ from the DME plant process, we investigated the composite membrane with rubbery polymers as the separation layer and its separation performance of $CO_2$ and $H_2$. Hollow fiber membranes for supporting layer were prepared by solution spinning method. In case of using PDMS as a separation layer, the composite membranes showed the permeation rates of $CO_2$ were over 300 GPU and minimum $CO_2/H_2$ selectivitties were 4.3 and in case of using PEBAX as a separation layer, the composite membranes showed the permeation rates of $CO_2$ were over 120 GPU and minimum $CO_2/H_2$ selectivities were 5.

In our ongoing study to identity antioxidants from natural sources, the antioxidant activity of Nelumbo nucifera stamens was evaluated for their potential to scavenge stable 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radicals, inhibit total reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, in kidney homogenates using 2 ,7 -dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCHF-DA), and scavenge authentic peroxynitrites ($ONOO^-$). A methanol (MeOH) extract of the stamens of N. nucifera showed strong antioxidant activity in the $ONOO^-$system, and marginal activity in the DPPH and total ROS systems, so were therefore fractionated with several organic solvents, such as dichloromethane ($CH_2 Cl_2$), ethyl acetate (EtOAc) and n-butanol (n-BuOH). The EtOAc soluble fraction, which exhibited strong antioxidant activity in all the model systems tested, was further purified by repeated silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatographies. Seven known flavonoids [kaempferol (1), kaempferol 3-Ο-$\beta$-D-glucuronopyranosyl methylester (2), kaempferol 3-Ο-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (3), kaempferol 3-Ο-$\beta$-D-galactopyranoside (4), myricetin 3 ,5 -dimethylether 3-Ο-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (5), kaempferol 3-Ο-$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1$\rightarrow$6)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (6) and kaempferol 3-Ο-$\beta$-D-glucuronopyranoside (7)], along with $\beta$-sitosterol glucopyranoside (8), were isolated. Compound 1 possessed good activities in all the model systems tested. Compounds 2 and 7 showed scavenging activities in the DPPH and $ONOO^-$ tests, while compounds 3 and 4 were only active in the $ONOO^-$ test. Conversely, compound 8 showed no activities in any of the model systems tested.
