Let  be a commutative ring with 1 and  be left unitary  . In this paper we introduced and studied concept of semi-small compressible module (a     is said to be semi-small compressible module if  can be embedded in every nonzero semi-small submodule of . Equivalently,  is  semi-small compressible module if there exists a monomorphism  , ,     is said to be semi-small retractable module if  , for every non-zero  semi-small sub module in . Equivalently,  is semi-small retractable if there exists a homomorphism  whenever  .

    In this paper we introduce and study the concept of semi-small compressible and semi-small retractable s as a generalization of compressible  and retractable  respectively and give some of

In this paper, we introduce a new concept named St-polyform modules, and show that the class of St-polyform modules is contained properly in the well-known classes; polyform, strongly essentially quasi-Dedekind and ?-nonsingular modules. Various properties of such modules are obtained. Another characterization of St-polyform module is given. An existence of St-polyform submodules in certain class of modules is considered. The relationships of St-polyform with some related concepts are investigated. Furthermore, we introduce other new classes which are; St-semisimple and ?-non St-singular modules, and we verify that the class of St-polyform modules lies between them.

        Let R be an associative ring. In this paper we present the definition of (s,t)- Strongly derivation pair and Jordan (s,t)- strongly derivation pair on a ring R, and study the relation between them. Also, we study prime rings, semiprime rings, and rings that have commutator left nonzero divisior with (s,t)- strongly derivation pair, to obtain a (s,t)- derivation. Where s,t: R®R are two mappings of R.

Throughout this paper we introduce the notion of coextending module as a dual of the class of extending modules. Various properties of this class of modules are given, and some relationships between these modules and other related modules are introduced.

PPSU hollow fiber nanofiltration membranes are prepared by applying two concentrations and various extrusion pressures according to the phase inversion method. Cross-sectional area and outer structures were characterized by using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). In additional to the pore size distribution, either the mean roughness or the mean pore size of the PPSU hollow fiber surfaces was evaluated by AFM. It was found that the morphology of the PPSU fibers had both sponge-like and finger-like structures through different extrusion pressures and PPSU concentrations. The mean pore size and mean roughness for inner and outer surfaces were seen to be decreased with the increase of extrusion pressure at

Let R be a commutative ring with identity, and let M be a unity R-module. M is called a bounded R-module provided that there exists an element x?M such that annR(M) = annR(x). As a generalization of this concept, a concept of semi-bounded module has been introduced as follows: M is called a semi-bounded if there exists an element x?M such that . In this paper, some properties and characterizations of semi-bounded modules are given. Also, various basic results about semi-bounded modules are considered. Moreover, some relations between semi-bounded modules and other types of modules are considered.

   In this paper ,we introduce a concept of Max– module as follows: M is called a Max- module if ann N R is a maximal ideal of R, for each non– zero submodule N of M;       In other words, M is a Max– module iff (0) is a *- submodule, where  a proper submodule N of M is called a *- submodule if [ ] : N K R is a maximal ideal of R, for each submodule K contains N properly.       In this paper, some properties and characterizations of max– modules and  *- submodules are given. Also, various basic results a bout Max– modules are considered. Moreover, some relations between max- modules and other types of modules are considered.
