  • Activity-directed isolation of the methylene chloride fraction from the stems of Parthenocissus tricuspidata have led to the identification of two new compounds (1-2): 1-(2',3',5'-trihydroxyphenyl)-2-(4"-hydroxyphenyl)-ethane-1,2-(E)-epoxide (1, tricuspidatin A) and erythro-1-(3',5'-dihydroxyphenyl)-2-(4"-hydroxyphenyl)-ethane-1,2-diol (2, tricuspidatin B), together with four known compounds (3-6): ${\beta}$-sitosterol (3), nonacosan-1-ol (4), 3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-2-propenoic acid hexacosyl ester (5) and betulinic acid (6). Their chemical structures were elucidated based on spectroscopic (IR, UV, MS, 1D and 2D NMR) and physicochemical analyses. Compounds 1 and 2 showed strong DNA topoisomerase II inhibitory activity at both concentrations of 20 and $100{\mu}M$. In addition, 3 exhibited strong cytotoxic activity against the HT-29 and HepG2 cancer cell lines, and 6 showed strong cytotoxicity against the HT-29 and MCF-7 ones.

  • Static and non-static flame methods were used to measure the laminar burning velocity of methane, ethane and natural gas. The flame slot angle and velocity of unburned gas mixture were determined by Schlieren method and LDV, respectively, for static flame. The diameter of nozzle was selected as 11 mm. The experimental results containing the stretch effect showed that the maximum burning velocities were 41.5 for natural gas, 40.8 for methane and 43.4 cm/sec for ethane on equivalence ratio of 1.1. Constant volume combustion chamber was also used for non-static flame. The propagation process of flame front was visualized by high speed camera during constant pressure. The maximum burning velocity of natural gas was determined as 42.1 cm/sec on equivalence ratio of 1.15.

  • In this paper, new concept of the diesel fuel processing is introduced for the stable operation of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). Heavier hydrocarbons than $CH_4$, such as ethylene, ethane, propane, and etc., induce the carbon deposition on anode of SOFCs. In the reformate of heavy hydrocarbons (diesel, gasoline, kerosene, and JP-8), concentration of ethylene is usually higher than low hydrocarbons such as ethane, propane, and butane. So, removal of low hydrocarbons (over C1-hydrocarbons), especially ethylene, at the reformate gases is important for stable operation of SOFCs. New methodology as named "post-reformer" is introduced for removing the low hydrocarbons at the reformate gas stream. Catalyst of the NECS-PR4 is selected for post-reforming catalyst because the catalyst of NECS-PR4 shows the high selectivity for removing low hydrocarbons and achieving the high reforming efficiency. The diesel reformer and post-reformer are continuously operated for about 200 hours as integrated mode. The reforming performance is not degraded and low hydrocarbons in the diesel reformate are completely removed.

  • Indirect $CO_2$ effect due to non-methane volatile organic compound (NMVOC) emissions from solvent and product use and fugitive NMVOC emissions from fuels in the Republic of Korea and 13 Annex I countries under United Nations Framework on Climate Change were estimated and the proportions of them to total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions ranged from 0.092% to 0.45% in 2006. Indirect greenhouse effect ($CO_2$, $CH_4$, and $O_3$) were estimated at 13 photochemical assessment monitoring sites in the Republic of Korea using concentrations of 8 NMVOCs of which indirect global warming potential (GWP) were available. The contribution of toluene to mixing ratio was highest at 11 sites and however, the contribution of toluene to indirect greenhouse effect was highest at nine sites. In contrast to toluene, the contributions of ethane, butane, and ethylene were enhanced. The indirect greenhouse effects of ethane and propane, of which ozone formation potentials are the lowest and the third lowest respectively among targeted 10 NMVOCs, ranked first and fourth highest respectively. Acetaldehyde has relatively higher maximum incremental reactivity and is classified as probable human carcinogen however, its indirect GWP ranked second lowest.

  • 최근 새로운 천연가스 수송/저장법으로 가스 하이드레이트 형성법이 주목받고 있다.본 연구에서는 천연가스의 저장 매체로 다공성 매질인 실리카 젤을 사용하였다. 다공성 실리카 젤을 사용할 경우 물과 기체의 접촉면적을 극대화 시킬 수 있어 가스하이드레이로의 전환율을 높일 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 천연가스 주성분인 에탄과 프로판 기체를 사용하였으며, 기공의 직경이 각각 6.0 nm, 15.0 nm, 30.0 nm, 100.0 nm의 다공성 실리카 젤을 사용하였다. 에탄은 270 $\sim$ 285 K의 온도범위와 9 $\sim$ 25 bar의 압력범위, 프로판은 260 $\sim$ 280 K의 온도범위와 1.8 $\sim$ 2.8 bar의 압력범위에서 기공 크기의 분포를 고려하여 하이드레이트(H)-물($L_W$)-기상(V)의 3상 평형점을 측정하였다. 측정 결과 기공의 크기가 작아질수록 각각의 벌크 상태의 에탄 및 프로판 하이드레이트에 비해 하이드레이트의 평형조건이 온도는 낮아지고 압력이 높아지는 저해효과가 커짐을 알 수 있었다. 천연가스 수송/저장으로서 응용을 고려할 경우 저해효과가 적은 100.0 nm이상의 다공성 실리카 젤을 사용하는 것이 적절할 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과는 천연가스 수송/저장뿐만 아니라 심해저 천연가스 개발, 이산화탄소 심해저장 등의 가스 하이드레이트 용용 연구에도 유용한 기초 자료가 될 것이다.

  • 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.

  • A new poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) membrane electrode that is highly selective to $Mn^{+2}$ ions was prepared using N,N'-bis(2'-pyridinecarboxamide)-1,2-ethane ($bpenH_2$) as a suitable neutral carrier. This concentration range ($1.0{\times}10^{-5}$ to $1.0{\times}10^{-1}\;M$) with Nernstian slope of $29.3{\pm}0.5\;mV$ per decade. The detection limit and the response time of electrode were $8.0{\times}10^{-6}\;M$ and (${\leq}15\;s$) respectively. The membrane can be used for more than two months without observing any divergence. The electrodes exhibited excellent selectivity for $Mn^{+2}$ ion over other mono-, di- and trivalent cations. Selectivity coefficients were determined by the matched potential method (MPM). The electrode can be used in the pH range from 4.0 - 9.0. The isothermal coefficient of this electrode amounted to 0.00023 V/$^{\circ}C$. The stability constant (log $K_s$) of the $Mn^{+2}$ - $bpenH_2$ complex was determined at $25^{\circ}C$ by potentiometric titration in mixed aqueous solution. The proposed electrode was applied to the determination of $Mn^{+2}$ ions in real samples.

  • We prepared lead ion-selective PVC membranes that were based on N,N'-bis-thiophene-2-ylmethylene-ethane-1,2-diamine as a membrane carrier. The membrane electrode has a linear dynamic range between 1.0 ${\times}$ $10^{-5}$ and 1.0 ${\times}$ $10^{-1}$ M with a Nernstian slope of 29.79 mV per decade, and its detection limit was 2.04 ${\times}$ $10^{-6}$ M at room temperature. The potentiometric response is independent of the pH of the solution in the pH range of 5-7. The proposed electrode revealed good selectivity and response for $Pb^{2+}$ over a wide variety of other metal ions in pH 5.0 buffer solutions, and there was good reproducibility of the base line on the subsequent measurements. The membrane electrode has a relatively fast response time, satisfactory reproducibility and a relatively long life time.
