Barium Titanate(BaTiO$_3$) nanoparticles were prepared at 22$0^{\circ}C$ through glycothermal process by using barium hydroxide and amorphous titanium hydrous gel as precursor and 1,4-butanediol and distilled water as solvent. It is demonstrated that the size of BaTiO$_3$ particles can be controlled by reaction conditions such as various content of 1,4-butanediol/distilled water volume ratio. This processing method can fabricate BaTiO$_3$ powders, which have a narrow distribution and exhibit good dispersion. The particle size of BaTiO$_3$ powders obtained by glycothermal process were about 50 nm to 200 nm on the condition that reaction temperature was 22$0^{\circ}C$ and holding time was 24 h.

Esterification reaction between succinic acid and 1,4-butanediol was kinetically investigated in the presence of nontoxic organometallic compound catalyst(ESCAT-100E) at $150-190^{\circ}C$. The reaction rates measured by the amount of distilled water from the reaction vessel. The Esterification reaction was carried out under the first order conditions respect to the concentration of reactants, respectively. The overall reaction order was 2nd. The linear relationship was shown between apparent reaction rate constant and reciprocal absolute temperature. By the Arrhenius plot the activation energy have been calculated as 376.13 kJ/mol under nontoxic organometallic compound catalyst and also apparent reaction rate constant, k' was found to obey first kinetics with respect to the concentration of catalyst.

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.

Pyrophosphoric modified polyesters (TATBs) were synthesized by polycondensation of adipic acid, trimethylolpropane, 1,4-butanediol, and tetramethylene bis(orthophosphate). Two-component PU flame-retardant coatings (TATBCs) were prepared by blending TATBs with HDI-Biuret. Most of the physical properties of the flame-retardant coatings were comparable to those of non-flame-retardant coatings. Coatings containing 10 and 15wt% 1,4-butanediol, TATBC-10C and TATBC-15C were not flammable in the vertical flame-retardancy test.

In this study, 3 mol% yttria-tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (3Y-TZP) nanoparticles were synthesized by the glycothermal method under various reaction temperatures and times. The co-precipitated precursor of 3Y-TZP was prepared by adding $NH_4OH$ to starting solutions, and then the mixtures were placed in an autoclave reactor. Tetragonal yttria-doped zirconia nanoparticles were afforded through a glycothermal reaction at a temperature as low as $220^{\circ}C$, using co-precipitated gels of $ZrCl_4$ and $YCl_3{\cdot}6H_2O$ as precursors and 1,4-butanediol as the solvent. The synthesized 3Y-TZP particles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Raman spectroscopy. The 3Y-TZP particles have a stable tetragonal phase only at glycothermal temperatures above $200^{\circ}C$. To investigate phase transition, the 3Y-TZP particles were heat treated from 400 to $1400^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. Raman analysis indicated that, after heat treatment, the tetragonal phase of the 3Y-TZP particles remained stable. The results of this study, therefore, suggest that 3Y-TZP powders can be prepared by the glycothermal method.

Two-component polyurethane flame retardant coatings (ATTBC) were prepared by blending polyisocyanate (TDI-adduct) with ATTBs mentioned at the previous paper. Most of the physical properties of the flame retardant coatings were comparable to those of non-flame retardant coatings. Especially, the hardness, impact resistance, and accelerated weathering resistance were remarkably improved with the increase of the content of 1,4-butanediol. Coatings containing 10 and 15 wt% 1,4-butanediol, ATTBC-10C and ATTBC-15C, were not flammable in vertical flame-retardancy test. Their char area recorded 1.1${\sim}$11.6 $cm^2$ in 45$^{\circ}$ eckel burner method.

Esterification reaction between succinic acid[SA] and 1,4-butanediol [BD] was kinetically investigated in the presence of organometallic catalysts (ESCAT-100Ag18, MBTO) at $150{\sim}180^{\circ}C$. The reaction followed from the measurement of the quantity of water which was distilled from the reaction vessel. The esterification reaction was carried out under the first order kinetics with respect to the concentration of reactants and catalyst, respectively. The overall reaction order was 2nd. From the examination of relationship between apparent reaction rate constants and reciprocal absolute temperature, the activation energy has been calculated as 146.70 kJ/mol(ESCAT-100Ag18) and 87.57 kJ/mol(MBTO), respectively.

Enzyme-catalyzed polycondensatlon reaction of aliphatic polyesters with several repeating units was studied using the biocatalytic activities of lipases from different sources. Porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL) was found to be best in utilizing bls(2,2,2-trichloroethyl) glutarate and 1,4-butanediol as substrafes. The reaction was also catalyzed to some extent by the lipases from Humicola lanuginos and Psudomonas sp. In the series of short-chain diols(C2-C4), bis(2,2,2-trichloroethyl) glutarate was iransesterified fastest with 1,4-butanediol and for the long-chain diols (PEG-300-PEG-1000), the reaction was fastest with PEG-400. With PEGs, only monoesterification product was obtained. PPL functioned well in relatively hydrophilic organic solvents such as tetrahydrofuran(THF), ether and acetonitrile. The reaction rate was accelerated as the reaction temperature was raised from $20^{\circ}C$ to $60^{\circ}C$ while Mn values of the reaction products were not affected by the reaction temperature. End group analysis by NMR showed that Mn values of the polymer were in the range of 1500-4000 daltons.
