In the screening of phenol-degrading bacteria, a strain showing good growth in media containing phenol was isolated by using enrichment culture from various sample and identified as genus Klebsiella pneumoniae. The optimal temperature and pH for cell growth of Klebsiella pneumoniae was $35^{\circ}C$ and 8.0, respectively. When phenol was added to the minimal media as a sole source of carbon and energy, the concentration of maximum and optimum for cell growth was 1,200ppm and 1,000ppm, respectively. It was observed that Klebsiella pneumoniae was able to degrade 98% of phenol (1,000ppm) after 40hr in culture. The isolated could utilize various kinds of aromatic compounds and showed good growth in presence of phenol, m-cresol and 3-methyl catechol.

In this paper, we have investigated the effect of organic additives and prestressed D C. voltage on the impulse tree initiation in low density polyethylene. The five klnds of organic compounds was selected for the purpose of inhibiting tree initiation and 10 wt % of each additive was mixed in low density polyethylene. The positive or negative impulse voltage was applied after prestressed D.C. voltage was applied in order to investigate the effect of the space charge influenced on tree initiation. The lengths of tree initiation in case of belng same polarity between prestressed D.C. voltage and impulse voltage were longer than those in case of being different polarity between prestressed D.C. voltage and impulse voltage. When the polarity prestressed D.C. voltage was the different plarity of impulse voltage, the length of tree initiation increased with increasing the prestressed D.C. voltage and decreasing the rest time Among the organic additives used in this paper, the m-cresol can be shown to be the most effective inhibiter to tree initiation.

The bacteria which can biodegrade aromatic compounds were screened from soil and wastewater. The isolated Pseudomonas sp. HC107 had high removal rate of COD and phenol. And also this strain grew on m-cresol, salicylate, toluene, 2, 4-D and benzene. When the strain culture (2 ml/day) was treated on continuous reactor at mixed wastewater from chemical, pharmaceutical and dye industry, the treatment rate of COD, BOD and phenol was to be about 92.5%, 95.3% and 93.5%, respectively.

In this paper, we report a modified technique for the production of oriented continuous nanofibers instead of non-woven mats using a rapidly rotating collection device. We are interested in retaining physical properties such as electrical conductivity of fiber bundles in their axial direction. The experiments were performed using polyethylene oxide (PEO) and its blend with polyaniline (PANI). According to the results, a typical fiber with a uniform diameter of about 100 nanometer was produced. The fibers from the PEO/ CHCl$_3$ solution show high crystallinity and good orientation whereas the fibers from the blend solution of PEO/PANI/m-cresol and CHCl$_3$ show no preferred orientation. However, the fibers of the blend exhibit high electrical conductivity of 33 S/cm for a fiber bundle at a PANI level of 50 %.

Benzylideneacetophenones are known as chalcones[1]. The chalcone has been known to be a photo-isomerizable and photo-dimerizable chromophore. The chalcone derivatives were prepared by base-catalyzed condensation of aldehydes and acetophenones, which were substituted with various alkyl chains. The synthesized chalcone was introduced into the t-BOC protected diamine through William synthesis reaction. Photocrosslinkable polyimide was prepared via one-step imidization reaction of DOCDA (5-(2,5-dioxotetrahydro furyl}-3-methyl-3-cyclohexene-1,2-dicarboxylic anhydride) and the chalcone introduced diamine using isoquinoline (5 wt%) in m-cresol. The polyimide solutions were spin-coated onto the quartz, silicone wafer and glass substrates and the obtained thin films were irradiated obliquely with linearly polarized UV light.

Polyaniline-Camphorsulfonic Acid Emeraldine Salt(PANI-CSA ES) was prepared by doping Polyaniline Ermeralidine Base(PANI EB) with DL-10-Camphorsulfonic Acid(CSA). PANI-CSA ES was solved in an organic solvent by ultrasonification for different periods of time and its surface resistivity was measured. Several PANI-CSA ES solutions solved in different organic solvents were prepared and their surface resistivities were measured. Thermal stability of film casted with PANI-CAS ES solution in m-cresol was estimated by measuring its surface conductivity and the content of this moisture and organic solvents. PANI-CSA ES was blended with different polymeric binders to improve its physical properties and the surface resistivities of several kinds of PANI-CSA ES blends were measured as a function of the content of PANI-CSA ES. PANI-CSA ES polymerized by 1-step oxidative polymerization was prepared and its surface resistivity was measured.

Many kinds of acetosolv lignin including ricestraw and spruce lignin were pyrolyzed. and liquefied in the autoclave reactor using 50% tetralin and m-cresol solution respectively as soluble solvent and Co-Mo as catalyst. In order to promote deoxyhydrogenolysis reaction $H_2$ gas was supplied into the reactor. The ratio between lignin and the soluble solvent are lg and 10cc. The reaction conditions are $200^{\circ}-700^{\circ}C$ of reaction temperature, 10-50 atms of reaction pressure and 100-500rpm of the reactor stirrer. By the deoxyhydrogenolysis liquefaction reaction, the main chemical structures of lignin which are aryl-alkyl-${\beta}$-0-4 ether, phenylcoumaran and biphenyl etc. are easily destroyed into liqufied aromatic compounds and aliphatic compunds linked with aromatic compounds. The percent yield of monomeric phenols on the weight bvase of lignin reacted reached to 12-14% by the chemical analytic GC-MS etc.

A series of fluorinated aromatic poly(hydroxyamide)s (PHAs) were synthesized by direct polycondensation of diacides containing 2,6-dimethylphenoxy group and quinoxaline ring in the main chain with 2,2-bis-(3-amino-4-hydroxyphenyl) hexafluoropropane. The PHAs had relatively low inherent viscosities in the range of 0.35~0.43 dL/g at $35^{\circ}C$ in DMAc solution. All PHAs exhibited excellent solubility in aprotic solvents such as NMP, DMAc, DMF and DMSO as well as in common organic solvents such as pyridine, THF, and m-cresol at room temperature. However, the poly(benzoxazole)s (PBOs) were quite insoluble in all organic solvents except partially soluble in concentrated sulfuric acid. The PBOs showed glass transition temperatures between 233 and $284^{\circ}C$ by DSC and maximum weight loss temperatures in the range of $536-546^{\circ}C$ by TGA.

Ionic conjugated polymer, poly(2-ethynyl-N-propargylpyridinium bromide), was prepared by the cyclopolymerization of 2-ethynyl-N-propargylpyridinium bromide on using various transition metal catalysts, or by thermal methods without adding catalyst. The polymerization of 2-ethynyl-N-propargylpyridinium bromide catalyzed by PdCl2 gave the resulting polymers in relatively high yields. The polymer structure was characterized by various instrumental methods to confirm the conjugated polymer backbone structure carrying cumulated pyridine moiety. The polymers prepared by PdCl2 in DMSO or m-cresol were completely soluble in DMF, DMSO, and formic acid. The inherent viscosities of the resulting polymers were in the range of 0.07-0.19 dL/g. Thermal properties of the polymers were also discussed.

The electrical and electromagnetic shielding properties have been investigated in polyaniline free standing films with different degrees of elongation cast from N-methyl 2-pyrrolidone(NMP) solution and camphorsulfonic acid(HCSA) doped polyaniline film. The degree of crystallinity of the crosslinked films increased with increasing the draw ratio. For the case of the oriented films doped with hydrochloric acid, we have the values of conductivities up to 173 S/cm. It is considered that the physical micro-crystalline crosslinking domains act as nucleation sites for the increase of relative crystallinity during stretching. We have obtained the value of conductivity 210 S/cm in the HCSA doped polyaniline film cast from the solvent of m-cresol, which is higher than that of the crosslinking oriented films. The electromagnetic shielding efficiency of HCSA doped polyaniline film obtained 37-41 dB in the frequency range of 10MHz-1GHlz, which is higher than that of the crosslinking oriented films. The higher value of electromagnetic shielding efficiency of HCSA doped polyaniline film suggests strong possibility of electromagnetic shielding material.
