Donepezil hydrochloride is a reversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitor that is used in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease to improve the cognitive performance. It shows different crystalline forms including hydrates. Therefore, it is very important to confirm the polymorphic forms in the formulations of pharmaceutical materials because polymorphs of the same drug often exhibit significant differences in solubility, bioavailability, processability and physical/chemical stability. In this paper, four different forms of donepezil hydrochloride were prepared and characterized using X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. This study showed that solid-state NMR spectroscopy is a powerful technique for obtaining structural information and the polymorphology of pharmaceutical solids.

Sodium salt of photoluminescent Eu-containing polyoxometalate (Eu-POM) was newly synthesized and its chemical structure and physical properties characterized. The Eu-POM was unstable outside the pH range 5.5-8.5, and a pH just over 7 gave the best yield. We have investigated the photoluminescent properties of Eu-POM with changing the reactants ratio of heteropolytungstate and $EuCl_3{\cdot}6H_2O}$. The Eu-POM was characterized by UV/Vis, FT-IR, $^1H$-NMR, PL and XPS. Eu-POM emits orange light of 590nm when excited with the light of 280nm. Furthermore, we made dodecyltrimethylammonium (DDTA) salt of Eu-POM (Eu-POM/DDTA) by exchange of the counter cation. The Eu-POM/DDTA is soluble in common organic solvents, while Eu-POM is only soluble in water. And it emits reddish orange light of 625nm when excited with light of 250nm.

High purity Al2O3 has been extracted from serlcite of clayminerals, selicite was treated by H2SO4(2N∼18N) solution, NH4OH treatment(PH8.5∼10.0) and metallic impurities such as Fe were removed by NaOH treatment. The tendency of extraction yield of ${\alpha}$-Al2O3 have been investigated by relating reaction time, acid concentration. Reaction products were analyzed by DT-TGA, chemical analysis and X-ray diffractometer. Prepared ${\alpha}$-Al2O3 power is fired in air at 1400$^{\circ}C$, 1600$^{\circ}C$ 2hr. The results are as follows; 1. The most suitable extracting conditions of ${\alpha}$-Al2O3 from Selicite were N-H2SO4, 120 min acidtreating time. 2. The optimum pH condition was 9.0. 3. Physical properties of sintered Al2O3 bodies were as follows. Relative density is 99%. Water absorption is 0.26%. Rock well hardness is 89.

Graphite reinforced conductive polymer composites for PEMFC bipolar plates were fabricated by the compression molding technique. Graphite powder was mixed with an phenol resin to impart electrical property in composites. In this study, conductive polymer composites with high filler $loadings(>60wt.\%)$ were manufactured to accomplish high electrical conductivity above 100S/cm. The level of compaction is important because graphite powder increase electrical conductivity of composites by direct physical contact between particles. The optimum molding pressure according to filler was proposed experimentally. Various tests(electrical conductivity, flexural strength, compressive strength, leach test, etc) were carried out to verify the performance of fabricated composites for PEMFC bipolar plates. Fabricated composites have good electrical conductivity and mechanical strength. The results of leach test and contact angle measurement showed similar characteristics compared with commercial bipolar plates.

The design and preparation of novel dye rotaxanes have gained much interest recently, since such structure usually exhibits peculiar spectral and optical changes. In spite of the promising results to date, increasing pressure remains to develop novel supramolecular structures based on stimuli-responsive systems. This presentation covers the study of inclusion complexes of cyclodextrins and various chromophores, with an emphasis on our most recent outcome of anisotropic hydrogel. In this system, physical gelation prepared from simple mixture of CD and a azo dye is completed through specific host-guest interaction. The obtained hydrogel exhibits respective morphological transitions based on supramolecular assembly and dissociation, leading to either precipitation or a sol-to-gel transition. It can identify different classes of metal ions, and, among them, naked-eye differentiation of lead ion is possible due to the coordination-induced unthreading of dye molecules. Accompanying structural changes were verified by numerous characterization techniques, including 2D-ROESY, HR-MAS, UV-Visible absorption, small-angle X-ray scattering, and induced circular dichroism measurements. Such properties discussed here will find useful in analytical applications, such as metal ion sensing and removal applications.

A novel drug delivery system, detergent-phospholipid mixed micelles as proliposomes, for water-insoluble compounds was developed by investigating (i) spontaneous formation of small unilamellar vesicles (SUV) from bile salt-egg phosphatidylcholine mixed micelles, (ii) the molecular mechanism of micelle-to-vesicle transition in aqueous mixtures of detergent-phospholipid, (iii) preparation and screening of a suitable liposomal formulation for a lipophilic drug: solubilization of the drug within the lipid bilayer, evaluation of the solubility limit, and characterization of the resulting product with respect to the physical properties and stability of the drug in the system, and (iv) testing antitumor activity in vitro. The results showed that the new carrier had a strong possibility to be a biocompatible universal formulation for water-insoluble drugs.

In this study, waste natural fibers and natural adhesions were used to prepare an environmental biodegradable nonwoven type mulching material. Especially, the nonwoven mulching with higher content of cotton shows a improved biodegradation. Also, the physical properties of nonwoven mulching with different ratios of cotton/rayon were studied. It was found that the degree of biodegradation was controlled by the type of nonwoven materials and adhesions.

It was known that properties of superconducting tapes could be influenced by mechanical processing method. In this presentation, the effect of drawing method on the final properties of superconductor tape has been systematically studied. Firstly, BSCCO/Ag tapes have been fabricated via two-stage drawing method and conventional rolling process. The two-stage drawing process consists of circular dies drawing and rectangular dies drawing. Important parameters such as fill factor and critical current values of fully processed superconducting tapes have been evaluated to elucidate the effect of drawing method.

Fuel characteristics of sewage sludge as required for the fluidized bed incinerators have been evaluated. Sewage sludge is basically a solid fuel with high percentage of moisture. Moisture content of the fuel directly affects the heating value of the fuel and the exhaust gas composition. When the sludge of transported into the incinerator, sludge cake is subject to the mixing, break-up and heat-up. Fluidization process would enhance these physical processes. The sludge fuel could then undergo the moisture evaporation and devolatilization process. Subsequent oxidation of volatiles as well as the remaining char would then follow. Sludge samples are characterized with high percentage of volatiles out of total combustibles. Quantitative understanding of above listed subprocesses would certainly help in the utilization of fluidized bed incinerators. A limited set of fuel characterization tests including calorimetric analysis, proximate analysis, elemental analysis and thermogravimetric analysis were conducted for the selected sludge samples. The measurement reasults of sludge samples were reported along with some published data. Limited experience in the actual incinerator plant is also presented.
