New PVC plasticizer, 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol-1-butyrate-3-isobutyrate was synthesized via simple esterification with butyric acid and Texanol(a trademark of Eastman Chemicals), the mixture of 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol-3-isobutyrate and 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol-1-isobutyrate. The analysis of $^1H-1D,\;^{13}C-1D$ NMR and HMBC spectra identified internal-ester-transfer of 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol-1-isobutyrate during the reaction. 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol-1-butyrate-3-isobutyrate gave better properties in PVC than 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol diisobutyrate(TXIB, a trademark of Eastman Chemicals) such as lower viscosity, higher tensile strength and better elongation. In particular, remarkably reduced migration compared with TXIB suggested a reduced emission of VOC(volatile organic compound) from PVC.

Polyethylene terephthalate(PET) is a well known commercial polymer widely available as fibre and as a major polymer with diverse applications. In this experiment, for the modification of PET, the pentanediol isomers, 1,5-pentanediol(1,5-PD) and neopentyl glycol(NPG), were introduced as third monomers. Crystallization rate decreased by the added NPG of PET modified by NPG units. In the case of PET modified by 1,5-PD, crystallization rate had been slightly increased at all temperatures until the 1,5-PD was added about 10 mol%. The decreased crystallization rate is thought to be due to branched from methyl group of neopentyl, which greatly retards the crystallization by growing onto the crystal surface of the diffused polymer chain.

In recent years, parabens used as preservatives in cosmetics have become a problem of human safety. Therefore, in this study, we tried to evaluate the preservative efficacy of 1,3-butylene glycol, 1,2-hexanediol, and 1,2-pentanediol as a preservative system to replace parabens. 1,3-Butylene glycol was added to cosmetic creams at a concentration of between 5 and 25%. The preservative efficacy of 1,3-butylene glycol was determined using a M-3 challenge test, as recommended by the Personal Care Products Council (formally CTFA). The alkane diols, such as 1,2-hexanediol and 1,2-pentanediol, were assessed in a similar manner. An evaluation of the preservative efficacy of 1,3-butylene glycol revealed that it was effective against all tested microbial strains at a concentration of 25%. We also investigated the efficacy of combinations of 0.3% phenoxyethanol and 0.1% ethylhexylglycerin. Finally, we tested the alkane diols, including 1,2-hexanediol and 1,2-pentanediol, as an alternative to the preservative 0.3% phenoxyethanol. Both 1% 1,2-hexanediol and 1% 1,2-pentanediol demonstrated preservative efficacy. Taken together, our study demonstrated that the formulation of 25% 1,3-butylene glycol and 0.1% ethylhexylglycerin, 1% 1,2-hexanediol, and 1% 1,2-pentanediol had the best preservative efficacy of the compositions tested. Thus, this study suggests that the formulation is a possibility of substituting parabens preservatives, which has been used in cosmetics and has become a safety issue.

Preservatives such as paraben, phenoxyethanol, and chlorphene are commonly used in cosmetics thanks to cheap price and good antiseptic effect. Recently, consumers' concerns about their possible toxicity and skin irritation forced them to be replaced with straight 1,2-alkanediols. However, as the alkanediols may also irritate skin, limited amount of them should be used in cosmetics. Three 1,2-alkanediols including 1,2-pentanediol, 1,2-hexanediol, and 1,2-octanediol in cosmetics were analyzed simultaneously by gas chromatogrphy with flame ionization detector. As a result of method validation, the specificity was confirmed by the calibration curves of 1,2-pentanediol, 1,2-hexanediol, and 1,2-octanediol showing good linearity correlation coefficient of above 0.999 over the concentration range of $100{\sim}1,200{\mu}g/g$. The limit of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) of 1,2-pentanediol, 1,2-hexanediol, and 1,2-octanediol were 31, 40, and $19{\mu}g/g$ and 98, 108, and $57{\mu}g/g$, respectively. The precision (Repeatability) of the amount in cosmetics showed less than 2.0%. Relative Standard Deviation (% RSD) and the Accuracy (% recovery) of the amount in cosmetics showed 99.3 ~ 103.3, 99.4 ~ 106.7, 97.5 ~ 107.3% respectively. As a result, simultaneous analysis of antimicrobial three 1,2-alkanediols in cosmetics were possible. This method can be utilized in accurate quantitative analysis of 1,2-alkanediols in cosmetics.

Waterborne polyurethanes (WPU) was synthesized using polyester polyol and polycarbonate polyol containing 3-Methyl-1,5-pentanediol (MPD) in a branched structure. To compare physical properties, WPUs were synthesized using polyester polyol obtained from 1,4-butanediol (BD) and adipic acid and polycarbonate polyol obtained from 1,6-hexane diol (HD)/ 1,4-butanediol (BD). This study investigated the effect of polyol molecular structure (molecular structure in soft segments) on the physical properties of WPUs. In the case of WPUs synthesized using polyols containing MPD, 100% modulus and tensile strength were lower than that without MPD, and elongation was higher. The transparency of WPU films with MPD were slightly better than WPU films without MPD.

A study on the behavior of boron extraction by TMPD(2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol) was carried out to find the optimum conditions for the boron extraction from brine. In case of boron extraction from 0.736 g/L boron-containing brine, typical optimum extractive conditions would be confirmed to be 0.75 mol/L of extractant concentration at 3.0 pH of brine with 1 of phase ratio and 20 min. of shaking time at 298 K respectively. And 1 mol/L sodium hydroxide of stripping agent was shown above 99 % of boron extraction and stripping efficiencies. Also, extraction equilibrium equation were obtained through experiments as follows : log D = 1.7 log $[TMPD]_O$ + constant at pH < 6.

Dialdehydes such as adipaldehyde, glutaraldehyde, and succinaldehyde were readily reduced to give their corresponding 1,6-hexanediol, 1,5-pentanediol, and 1,4-butanediol in good yields in the presence of catalytic amount of hexarhodium hexadecacarbonyl or iron pentacarbonyl in water and methoxyethanol or ethanol at 180$^{\circ}C$ for 4 hr under carbon monoxide atmosphere. Under the same reaction conditions, diketones such as 2,5-hexanedione, 2,4-pentanedione, and 2,3-butanedione afforded their corresponding 2,5-hexanediol, 2,4-pentanediol and 2,3-butanediol in moderate yields. For double hydrohydroxymethylation of dialdehydes or diketones, rhodium or iron carbonyl complexes are more effective than others. Particularly, benzoquinone gave hydroquinone quantitatively.

The effects of 1,3-Butanediol, 1,2-Pentanediol, and 1,2-Hexanediol in surfactant solutions on cmc, surface tension, foaming and emulsifying properties were determined. The addition of diols in aqueous surfactant solution decreased cmc and surface tension, and enhanced the foaming and emulsifying power. This trend is more significant by the longer hydrocarbon chain length of the diols. This property was confirmed because the diol's alkyl chain and the hydrophobic interaction with the surfactant reduce the cohesive force of water and increase the interaction between the head groups of the surfactant at interface. In addition, MIC test was conducted to determine the preservative power of each diol, and as a result, the antibacterial activity was effective in the order of 1,2-HDO > 1,2-PDO > 1,3-BDO. The results of this study show that diol can be applied to cosmetics as an auxiliary surfactant and antibacterial agent.

Flavor components in fresh Codonopsis lanceolata cultivated on a wild hill were detected by headspace sampling(HSS) method and GC-MS equipped with a VB-5(5% phenylmethyl polysiloxane) column. The 167 volatile compounds that were detected, consisted of 28 terpenes and terpene alcohols, 34 hydrocarbon, 31 alcohols, 13 aldehydes and ketones, 25 esters, 6 acids, 10 ethers and 20 miscellaneous components. The ten major volatile flavor components, comprising about 58% of the total, were dl-limonene (10.2%), ${\alpha}$-guaiene (9.0%), 2,2,6-trimethyl-octane (8.6%), hexadecane (8.0%), isolongifolan-8-ol (4.2%), 2,4,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol diisobutyrate (4.1%), ${\beta}$-selinene (3.9%), 2,2,3-trimethylnonane (3.6%), 3-methyl-5-propyl-nonane (3.1%), and ledene (3.1%). The unique aroma of fresh Codonopsis lanceolata described by sensory evaluation was green, earthy, camphoraceous and aldehydic. The components attributed to green or camphoraceous flavor such as 1-hexanol, 2-methylhexan-3-ol, 3-hexen-1-ol, cis-3-hexenyl butyrate, ethylhexanol, hexyl acetate, trans-2-hexen-1-ol, camphor, longiborneol and menthol were not included in the ten or twenty major volatile components which had the largest peak area in descending order. We concluded that the intensity of green and camphoraceous flavor might be used as an indicator of the freshness of Codonopsis lanceolata.
