This study was performed by measuring the minimum ignition temperature of polyurethane form recovered from the recycling process of the end-of-life home appliances. The critical ignition temperature of polyurethane form was lower as the size of the sample vessel was increased, and that of polyurethane form using cyclopentane as the forming agent was relatively lower than the polyurethane form using CFC and the combustion of cyclopentane-polyurethane form occurred fiercely. It is considered that the recycling process of end-of-life home appliances using cyclopentane-polyurethane form as the insulator would require a special fire and dust explosion prevention measures since there exists a high potential hazard of fire and dust explosion during crushing and storage processes.

We attempted to identify the compound responsible for the growth inhibition of Microcystis aeruginosa occurring when a culture broth of Bacillus subtilis C1 was added to the medium. The active compound was purified from B. subtilis C1 culture broth by adsorption chromatography and HPLC, and was identified as a type of glycolipid based on $^1H$ NMR and MS analyses. The purified active compound completely inhibited the growth of M. aeruginosa at a concentration of 10 ${\mu}g/ml$. This is the first report of a glycolipid produced by a Bacillus strain that has potential as an agent for the selective control of bloom-forming M. aeruginosa.

To develop high performance nickel-iron secondary battery, the characteristics of charge-discharge reaction of iron electrode were examined by cyclic voltammetry technique, SEM and XRD analysis. The capacity of the test electrodes was determined by the constant current charge-discharge method. It was found that the temperature and concentration of electrolyte were the major determinant factors of electrode capacity, and especially the 1st discharge capacity was increased with the increase of temperature. The effect of fore forming agent on the electrode capacity was negligible. The electrode capacity was above 350 ㎃h/g(36% utility) at 0.25C discharge rate. The stability of electrode was very good, but the activation occurred slowly.

A drug delivery system(DDS) for practically insoluble meloxicam was developed and evaluated by dissolution study. A novel DDS is two layered system, where the first layer is consisted of gas-forming agent for an immediate release and the second layer is composed of metolose SR(HPMC) for sustained release. This bilayered tablets were manufactured by using manual single punch machine. The results of dissolution study showed an initial burst release followed by sustained release for the experimental period time. From a pharmaceutical point of view, the designed DDS for meloxicam would be informative system in terms of poorly soluble analgesic medicines.

Mitomycin C(MMC) has been used as an anticancer drug and behaves as an alkylating agent forming covalent cross-link between complementary strands of double strand DNA. The purpose of this research was to determine number of DNA adducts, formed in vivo by Mitomycin C, in mouse organs. DNAs from liver, lung, brain and pancreas were isolated and used for $^{32}P$-postlabelling. The labeled nucleotides were separated by 2D-TLC and subjected to autoradiography. Numbers of MMC-DNA adducts were 9,9,5,4 in liver, pancreas, lung and brain, respectively.

Angiogenesis refers to the formation of new capillary blood vessels, or neovascularization occurring under various physical conditions, such as development of the embryo, formation of corpus luteum, wound healing and pathological conditions including tumor growth and metastases, hemangiomas, diabetic retinopathy, rheumatoid arthritis. There are many evidences that angiogenesis is important for the progressive growth of solid tumors and also permits the shedding of metastatic tumors from the primary site. Thus, treatment of angiogenesis inhibitors might be a novel strategy for tumor growth inhibition. Normal vascular endothelial cells are in a state of differentiation and angiogenic endothelial cells migrate and proliferate, and they subsequently differentiate into vessel-forming quiescent phenotype cells, Therfore, it was speculated that a modifier of cell differentiation could also affect angiogenesis. In order to identify new antiangiogenic factors, the research was conducted to estimate the inhibitory activities of cell differentiation agents by means of chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane(CAM) assay. Hence, we have established the CAM assay for the screening of antiangiogenic agents. Using the CAM assay, we found that ursolic acid, a tumor cell differentiation-inducing agent, showed a markedly inhibitory effect on chick embryonic angiogenesis.

Sulfonated polyetherimide having anionic charge and better hydrophilicity than polyetherimide was prepared by reacting polyetherimide with chlorosulfonic acid. To prepare casting solution, from which the membrane having good performance can produce. Polyvinylpyrrolidone as a pore forming agent and volatile weak solvent such as dichloromethane to foml the dense skin layer were added to the sulfonated polyetherimide / N -methyl-2-pyrrolidone solution. Membrane fabricated sulfonated PEl showed better fouling resistance to the protein than those fabricated PEL because of its hydrophilicity. Solute having negative charge was removed effectively with membrane fabricated from the sulfonated PEl because of its the same electron charge.

In this study, we attempt to synthesize the cordierite from the reaction of fly-ash, alumina, silicon dioxide, and magnesia powders. For the purpose of air purification, the honeycomb filter with porous cordierite was fabricated from the combination of synthetic cordierite and pore forming agent. Fabricated porous cordierite honeycomb was prepared with high porosity (58%), and good compressive strength (69MPa).

This study aims to manufacture and to evaluate lightweight cement composite using lightweight aggregate and expanded perlite. The expanded perlite and lightweight aggregates were mixed with cement, water, SP(superplasticizer), forming-agent and poly-propylene fiber. The specimens were cured at $20^{\circ}C$ for 24h and then at steam curing of $60^{\circ}C$, RH $100\%$ for 12h. As a result, We could make lightweight cement composite of satisfaction about ALC properties. However it is need to improve the properties of density and water absorption.

This paper was to evaluate the influence of kiln process parameter(kiln angle, kiln rotating speed) of lightweight aggregate using waste glass and bottom ash with industrial by-products on thermal conductivity, density, water absorption, fracture load and porosity by response surface analysis. In the results of surface plot and contour plot, it has verified that kiln residence time of lightweight aggregate increase as kiln angle and rotating speed decreases. For this reason, pore size and quantity tend to increase by active reaction of forming agent. It seems to be that increase in pore size and quantity have caused decreasing density, fracture load and thermal conductivity, and increasing water absorption. In conclusion, optimization of kiln process parameter on thermal conductivity, density, water absorption, fracture load and porosity by response surface analysis are kiln angle 2.4646%, kiln rotating speed 40.7089 rpm.
