In this work, analytical performance of a laboratory built double membrane desolvator (DMD) was studies using perfluoroalkoxy (PFA) nebulizer and microconcentirc nebulizer (MCN) in inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. Compared with MCN, PFA nebulizer coupled to DMD showed similar analytical sensitivity for aqueous solution and better sensitivity for isopropyl alcohol. Since PFA resisted various acids, HCI, $H_2SO_4$ and HF solution were analyzed with less than 2% RSD. Rinse-out time for the signal reduction to 1% was obtained to be 35 s for PFA but about 45 s for MCN.

We manufactured the metal hydrides of $(Ti_{0.88}Mg_{0.12})H_2$ using a very easy and cheap way that Ti-12%Mg blending powder was mechanically milled with liquid milling media such as isopropyl alcohol ($C_3H_8O$, containing oxygen) and hexane ($C_6H_{14}$, no oxygen) as hydrogen source. The $(Ti_{0.88}Mg_{0.12})H_2$ synthesized in isopropyl alcohol contained the high oxygen of 11.2%, while one in hexane had the low oxygen content of 0.7%. Such a difference of oxygen content affected the dehydriding behavior, phase transformation, and microstructural evolution at high temperature, which was investigated through X-ray diffraction and DSC measurements, and electron microscope observations.

The transdermal therapeutic system (TTS) of scopolamine has various advantages over its oral dosage forms. The ideal scopolamine TTS requires high skin permeation rate in short time after it is applied on the skin. In order to increase the initial skin permeation rate of scopolamine from TTS, various permeation enhancers were employed. Enhancers employed were fatty acids (oleic and linolenic acids), cyclic monoterpenes (menthol, camphor, cineole and limonene) and others (isopropyl myristate, sodium lauryl sulfate and glyceryl monostearate). The concentration of enhancers in the base were fixed to 5% (w/w). While fatty acids had little enhancing effect on the skin permeation of scopolamine, cyclic monoterpenes, isopropyl myristate and sodium lauryl sulfate resulted in $1.5{\sim}2.6-fold$ higher skin permeation rate of the drug compared to the control. However, lag time was not affected by enhancers studied.

This is a study on the volatile organic compounds(VOCs) concentrator with zeolite adsorptive honey rotor and catalytic combustion system for abating VOCs emitted from printing industry. VOCs emitted from the printing industry is mainly caused by organic solvent of printing ink. The content of organic solvents in printing ink varies from 40% to 75% and its content in the gravure ink is higher than that in any other ink. The average concentrations of each VOCs are 139 ppm for toluene, 152.1 ppm for MEK, 256.9 ppm for methanol and 42.9 ppm for isopropyl alcohol. We used zeolite honeycomb for absorbent of VOCs concentrator and palladium for catalyst combustion system. This system abated over 96% of emitted total VOCs, 98% of toluene, 100% of MEK, 92% of methanol and, 100% of isopropyl alcohol. It is concluded that the low-leveled high-volume VOCs emitted from printing process were removed almost by concentrator with zeolite adsorptive honey rotor and catalytic combustion system.

Aluminum hydroxides were prepared by the alkoxide hydrolysis method using Al-isopropoxide as a starting material and NH4OH as a catalytic agent. When Al-isopropoxide was hydrolyzed in a H2O-NH3 system, only Al(OH)3 was obtained over all pH values. However, AlOOH was formed besides Al(OH)3 when Al-isopropoxide was hydrolyzed in a H2O-NH3-isopropyl alcohol system. The AlOOH/Al(OH)3 ratio was increased as the isopropyl alcohol content was increased. The hydroxides, Al(OH)3 and AlOOH, obtained in this study and the commerical products, $\alpha$-Al2O3 and AlOOH were subjected to the carbothermal reduction and nitridation reaction to product AlN powder, using carbon black as a reducing agent under N2 atmosphere at various temperatures. AlN was synthesized from the obtained Al(OH)3 and the commercial AlOOH at 145$0^{\circ}C$, however, synthesized from the obtained AlOOH and the commercial alpha-alumina at 135$0^{\circ}C$. The temperature difference is assumed to be attributed to the reactivity of those powders. AlN powder prepared from the Al-isopropoxide was observed to have the narrower particle size distribution than that prepared from the commercial $\alpha$-Al2O3 or AlOOH.

This paper presents the electrochemical etch-stop characteristics of single-crystal silicon in a tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide(TMAH):isopropyl alcohol(IPA):pyrazine solution. Addition of pyrazine to a TMAH:IPA etchant increases the etch-rate of (100) silicon, thus the elapsed time for etch-stop was shortened. The current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of n- and p-type silicon in a TMAH:IPA:pyrazine solution were obtained, respectively. Open circuit potential(OCP) and passivation potential(PP) of n- and p-type silicon, respectively, were obtained and applied potential was selected between n- and p-type silicon PP. The electrochemical etch-stop is applied to the fabrication of 801 microdiaphragms having $20{\mu}m$ thickness on a 5-inch silicon wafer. The averge thicknesses of 801 microdiaphragms fabricated on the one wafer were $20.03{\mu}m$ and standard deviation was ${\pm}0.26{\mu}m$. The silicon surface of the etch-stopped microdiaphragm was extremely flat without noticeable taper or other nonuniformities. The benefits of the electrochemical etch-stop in a TMAH:IPA:pyrazine solution become apparent when reproducibility in the microdiaphragm thickness for mass production is considered. These results indicate that the electrochemical etch-stop in a TMAH:IPA:pyrazine solution provides a powerful and versatile alternative process for fabricating high-yield silicon microdiaphragms.

An innovative wafer drying system was developed using Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and nitrogen carrier gas in order to replace the commercial conventional drying system which was a non-environmentally friendly system. This system was designed as following ; the IPA evaporation chamber and the process chamber were separated to increase drying efficiency, and the carrier gas with the IPA vapor was delivered into the process chamber. It was investigated that the IPA concentration was the most important factor to operate the system. The optimum concentration was found to be 2.4 ml IPA/N2 1. In addition, the optimum flow rate of the nitrogen gas were maintained more than 60 l/min.

Theoretical studies on the electrophilic substitution reactions of five-membered heteroaromatic compounds, furan, pyrrole and thiophene, with isopropyl cation were carried out using the MNDO method. The results indicated that site selectivities of ${\alpha},{\beta}$ and hetero-atoms are not controlled by electrostatic interactions but are determined mainly by charge trasfer stabilization between the HOMO of heteroaromatics and the LUMO of the electrophile. The reactivity order for ${\alpha}\;and\;{\beta}$ positions was pyrrole > furan > thiophene, in agreement with the solution-phase as well as the gas-phase experimental results.

Behavior of hazardous organic compounds including bisphenol A, phtalic acid, and phosphoric acid in low pressure nanofiltration process were investigated. In the case of NTR729HF, rejection of all target organic compounds except 2-H-Benzothiazol and 2-isopropyl phenol was more than 90%. The lowest rejection for 2-H-Benzothiazol was observed in another membranes. The UTC60 and UTC20 showed similar rejection characteristics of hazardous organic compounds. Although the rejection of Bisphenol A, n-buthyl benzenesulfoneamide, N-ethyl-p-toluensulfonamide, 2-H-benzothiazol, p-t-butylphenol and 2-isopropyl phenol was less than 30%, the rejection of tributyl phosphate, triethyl phosphate, camphor, 2,2,4 trimethyl 1,3 pentandiol and diphenyl amine was more than 90% in the case of UTC60 and UTC20. The rejection characteristics of various hazardous organic compounds were converted into one parameter Ks, which was proposed in the diffusion-convection model. The Ks of hazardous organic compounds were discussed by comparing with their solute size represented by Stokes radius. The diffusion convection model considering Ks was successful to interpret rejection characteristics of hazardous organic compounds by low-pressure nanofiltration membranes.
