Electrochemical behavior of 1.0mM bis(2,2'-bipyridyl)copper( II )(${Cu(bpy)_2}^{2+}$) in 100mM NaCl+27mM $MgCl_2$ solution with and without sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS) is investigated. In the presence of SDS, $E_{pa}$ and $E_{1/2}$ of ${Cu(bpy)_2}^{2+/1+}$ shifts to the positive direction compared to the SDS free. Teh intersection of two lines on ${\Delta}E_p$ vs. -log[SDS] plot for 1.0mM $Cu(bpy)_2(NO_3)_2$ in 100mM NaCl+27mM $MgCl_2$ solution is a critical micelle concentration(CMC). Reduced form ${Cu(bpy)_2}^{1+}$ in the presence of $MgCl_2$ is more easily associated to dodecyl sulfate anion($DS^-$) than oxidized ${Cu(bpy)_2}^{2+}$. As the ionic strength is increased by the addition of multiply charged cations($MgCl_2$), the double layer becomes more compact and micelle formation is more difficult.

Biodiesel is an alternative and renewable energy source, which is hoped to reduce global dependence on petroleum and environmental problem. Biodiesel produced from a variety of oil sources such as vegetable oil, animal fat and waste oils, and has properties similar to those associated with petro-diesel, including cetane number, volumetric heating value, flash point, viscosity and so on. In this study, we investigate the effect of quality of raw materials on alkali-catalyzed transesterification for producing of biodiesel. The increase of content of free fatty acid and water in oil were caused the sharp decrease of conversion yield. Also, the low purity of methanol in reactant was inhibited the reaction rate. In the case of addition of sodium sulfate as absorbent to prepare catalyst solution, the content of fatty acid methyl ester in product was increased more about 1.6% than that of control. However, the addition of zeolite, sodium chloride and sodium sulfate as absorbent in reactant to remove water generated from reaction did not show any enhancement in the reaction yield. This result may provide useful information with regard to the choice and preparation of raw materials for more economic and efficient biodiesel production.

Using sodium pyrophoshate as complexing agent, the characteristics and the magnetic properties of the films deposited from electroless cobalt plating bath have been studied. The result obtained are as following; 1. It was found that the optimum bath compositions consisted of 0.1M cobalt sulfate, 0.2M sodium hypophosphite as reducing agent, 0.4M sodium pyrophosphate as complexing agent and 0.5M ammonium sulfate as buffer agent, whereas good operating conditions were the bath of pH 10.5 adjusted with ammonia and 70$^{\circ}C$ of bath temperature, respectively. 2. The coercive force and the squareness of magnetic films were increased with deposition from the low temperature bath. 3. The phosphorous content in Co-P films deposited from these bath was relatively higher than that from Brenner bath. It was assumed to be due to codeposition of phosphorous from the pyrophosphate anion in the solution.

Synthetic aluminum silicate was prepared by reacting aluminum sulfate solution with Sodium silicate solution in this study. The optimum synthesis conditions based on the yield of the product were established by applying Box-Wilson experimental design. The results were found to be as follows; Reactant temperature : 50∼72$^{\circ}C$, Concentration of two reactants : 10∼17.6％, Mole ratio of two reactants, [Sod. silicate]/[Al. sulfate) : 4.6∼5.0, Temperature of washing water : 25∼4$0^{\circ}C$, and Drying temperature of product : 50∼$65^{\circ}C$. The physical and chemical properties of synthetic aluminum silicate as medicine were investigated by means of chemical analysis, adsorption test and acid consuming capacity measurements.

This study focused on the synthesis of the nickel hydroxide using ammonium sulfate in leaching solution from waste nickel-cadmium batteries. The effect of pH, temperature and the input amount of ammonium sulfate in leaching solution was investigated. The ammonium nickel sulfate with high purity was obtained in acidic leaching solution and the solution temperature of $60^{\circ}C$. The suitable molar ratio of the input amount of ammonium sulfate to nickel in solution is 2:1. The impurity about 1.4 at.% of Cd was included in the nickel hydroxide precipitates when ammonium nickel sulfate was used. At the process using sodium sulfide which precipitates the cadmium in solution, nickel and iron compounds were precipitated together.

Mullite powders were synthesized from the common solution of aluminum sulfate and sodium silicate solutions by the emulsion-hot kerosene technique. The reaction temperature and mechanism for mullitization and the characteristics of synthesized mullite powders were investigated. The effect of Na components introduced from sodium silicate solution on the physical property and microstructure of sintered mullite was also examined. It was proved that mullites were formed at 75$0^{\circ}C$ through the reaction mechanism of Na2O.2.2SiO2＋3.3Al2(SO4)3longrightarrow1.1(3Al2O3.2SiO2)＋Na2SO4＋8.9SO3. Synthetic mullite powders consisted of the compositiion of 3Al2O3.2SiO2 and showed highly agglomeration of hollow spherical particles of 1${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ diameter. The density and fracture toughness of sintered mullites were somewhat reduced because of the effect of a very small amount of residual Na components.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are attractive for field emitter because of their outstanding electrical, mechanical, and chemical properties. Several applications using CNTs as field emitters have been demonstrated such as field emission display (FED), backlight unit (BLU), and X-ray source. In this study, we fabricated a CNT cathode using transparent ultra-thin CNT film. First, CNT aqueous solution was prepared by ultrasonically dispersing purified single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) in deionized water with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). To obtain the CNT film, the CNT solution in a milliliter or even several tens of micro-litters was deposited onto a porous alumina membrane through vacuum filtration process. Thereafter, the alumina membrane was solvated by the 3 M NaOH solution and the floating CNT film was easily transferred to an indium-tin-oxide (ITO) glass substrate of $0.5\times0.5cm^2$ with a film mask. The transmittance of as-prepared ultra-thin CNT films measured by UV-Vis spectrophotometer was 68~97%, depending on the amount of CNTs dispersed in an aqueous solution. Roller activation, which is a essential process to improve the field emission characteristics of CNT films, increased the UV-Vis transmittance up to 93~98%. This study presents SEM morphology of CNT emitters and their field emission properties according to the concentration of CNTs in an aqueous solutions. Since the ultra-thin CNT emitters prepared from the solutions show a high peak current density of field emission comparable to that of the paste-base CNT emitters and do not contain outgassing sources such as organic binders, they are considered to be very promising for small-size-but-high-end applications including X-ray sources and microwave power amplifiers.
