Polybutadiene (BR) was pyrolyzed at $540-860^{\circ}C$ and the effect of pyrolysis temperature on variations in the relative abundance of the major pyrolysis products (C4-, C5-, C6-, C7-, and C8-species) was investigated. Formation of the C4-, C5-, C6-, and C7-species competed with that of the C8-species. Relative intensity of the C8-species decreased with increasing pyrolysis temperature, while that of the C5-, C6-, and C7-species increased. Pyrolysis paths were became more complicated with increasing pyrolysis temperature. We suggested the operation of double bond migration and succeeding rearrangements for the formation of the C5- and C7-species and various rearrangements, including a double bond, for the formation of the C6-species at high temperature. The activation energies for the pyrolysis product ratios of(C5+C6+C7)/C4 and C8/C4 were used to explain the competition reactions to form the pyrolysis products.

trans-1, 4-Dideutero-2-butenedial ditosylhydrazone has been synthesized to investigate the path of the acetylene formation in the pyrolysis of the dry lithium salt. Mass spectra showed that three isotope isomers of acetylene which might come from the strained ring compound, tricyclo[1, 1, 0, ] butane, were formed.

In this study, micro-sized $CeO_2$ particles were synthesized by spray pyrolysis, and EG(ethylene glycol) and CA(citric acid) as organic additives were added to obtain hollow and porous particle during spray pyrolysis, and characteristics of obtained ceria were investigated according to the amount of added organic additives. Spray pyrolysis, postheat and ball-milling were combined to give 6 paths. $CeO_2$ nano-sized particle was obtained by the path which has sequence of Spray Pyrolysis with 0.5 M of EG and CA${\rightarrow}$Post-heat${\rightarrow}$Ball-milling${\rightarrow}$Post-heat among 6 paths. The average particle size(24 nm with standard deviation of 3.8 nm) of $CeO_2$ nano-sized particle by TEM analysis is close to the primary particle size(20 nm) which was calculated by Debye-Scherrer equation. To investigate the morphological characteristics and structure of the synthesized nanoparticle powders, SEM(Scanning Electron Microscopy), XRD(X-Ray Diffractometer) and TEM(Transmission Electron Microscopy) were used.

The soot formation characteristics have been studied experimentally in concentric co-flow ethylene/propane diffusion flames. Comparing to the homogeneously mixed propane/ethylene case, the increase of soot formation is observed when propane is supplied through the outer nozzle, while the decrease is observed when propane is supplied through the inner nozzle. The reaction path of PAHs formed from the pyrolysis process of propane is likely to be responsible to the observed difference. When propane is supplied through the outer nozzle, PAHs formed during the combustion process are easy to be exposed to the oxidization environment; however, when propane is supplied through the inner nozzle, PAHs are not likely to be oxidized and thus get involved in soot formation process. The synergistic effect in ethylene/propane diffusion flames is affected not only by the composition of mixture but also by the way of mixing.

The previous models for thermal behavior in the melting furnace were deterministic, composed of such a form that if the initial input conditions are determined, the results would have been come out by using the basic heat equilibrium equations. But making the experiment by trusting the analysis results, the melted slag is fortuitously set often, because temperature variation of the melted slag in the reaction process is not point function but path function. So in this study, a transient model was developed and verified by comparing with the experimental results.

The quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), commonly used in high vacuum deposition, becomes difficult to use when a thick film is deposited on the quartz, affecting the crystal's inherent vibration. In this study, a non-destructive optical measurement method was developed to measure the film's deposition rate during the in-situ film deposition process. By measuring the scattered laser intensity caused by the dimer in the parylene gas passing through the gas flow path, it was successfully confirmed that the ratio of the dimer in the parylene gas increases as the pyrolysis temperature decreases. Additionally, it was noted that the film's thickness and haze increase as the pyrolysis temperature decreases by confirming the characteristics of the visible parylene films. Through the research results, we aim to utilize the stable in-situ film deposition rate measurement system to control the precise film deposition rate of parylene films.

The synergistic effect of ethylene/propane mixture on soot formation is studied experimentally using a concentric co-flow diffusion burner, which provides the stratified fuel mixture. The soot volume fraction, soot particle diameter, number density and PAH concentrations are measured with various fuel supply configurations and compared to the homogeneously mixed case. When propane is supplied through the inner nozzle, an increase of soot formation is observed. However, when propane is supplied through the outer nozzle, a decrease is observed. The reaction path of PAH's formed from the pyrolysis process of propane is likely to be responsible to the observed differences. When propane is supplied through the outer nozzle, PAH's are formed in the relatively near oxidation region and exposed to the oxidization environment; on the other hand, when propane is supplied through the inner nozzle, PAH's are not likely to be oxidized and thus get involved in soot formation process. The synergistic effect in ethylene/propane diffusion flames is found to be affected not only by the com position of the mixture but also by the way of mixing.

The NOx emission characteristics of DME in laminar coaxial jet and counterflow nonpremixed flames were investigated using experimental and numerical approaches, respectively. The flame structure and NOx emission of DME were compared with those of $C_2H_6$ and $C_3H_8$. The DME flame was calculated using the Kaiser's mechanism, while the $C_2H_6$ and $C_3H_8$ flames were calculated using the $C_3$ mechanism. These mechanisms were combined with the modified Miller-Bowman mechanism for the analysis of NOx. Experimental results show in coaxial jet flame that DME flame has the characteristics of partial premixed flame and the flame length decreases up to 1/3 than that of $C_3H_8$ in the same condition of fuel mass flowrate. Then, the NOx emission of DME decreases to 40% approximately, comparing with that of $C_3H_8$. In the calculated results of counterflow nonpremixed flame, DME flame shows the $EI_{NO}$ decreases up to 50% approximately than those of$ C_2H_6$ and $C_3H_8$ flames when the equivalent fuels are consumed per unit mass and time. Although the overall NOx reaction path of DME is similar with other hydrocarbon fuels, it can be identified that DME flame has a distinct NO reduction mechanism due to the reburning NO chemistry in fuel rich region. From these results, we can conclude that the different NOx emission characteristics of DME flame with other hydrocarbon fuels are attributed to not the temperature increase and the activation of NO reactions due to O atom in DME fuel but the rapid processes of pyrolysis/oxidation.

Bismuth is a promising anodic for Li-ion batteries (LIBs) due to its adequate operating voltage and high-volume capacity (3,765 mAh cm^-3). Nevertheless, inevitable volume expansion during Bi alloy reactions leads to severe capacity loss and cell destruction. To address this, a complex of bismuth alloy nanoparticles (Bi@NC) embedded in an N doping-carbon coating is fabricated via a simple pyrolysis method. Nano-sized bismuth alloys can improve the reaction dynamics through a shortened Li⁺-ion diffusion path. In addition, the N-doped carbon coating effectively buffers the volume change of bismuth during the extended alloy/dealloy reaction with Li⁺ ions and maintains an effective conductive network. Based on the Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed high bismuth alloy loading (80.9 wt%) and maintained a high gravimetric capacity of 315 mAh g^-1 up to 100 cycles with high volumetric capacity of 845.6 mAh cm^-3.
