In recent years, while the importance of thermal management has been emphasized due to smaller electronic products, various materials have been used as heat sink. In this study, porous ceramic heat sink was developed with SiC, successfully separated from the slurry of SiC occurring in solar energy materials industry and the thermal performance of porous SiC heat sink has been compared with those of aluminum heat sink and pure SiC heat sink through experiment. From the experimental results, it was verified that porous recycled SiC heat sink has better thermal performance than aluminum heat sink since its micropores increase the heat transfer area. In addition, the effect of the micropores on thermal performance has been quantified by increasing convective heat transfer coefficient with numerical analysis.

The characteristics of dental treatment makes the dental staff frequently contact with patient directly. Also the daily use of high-handpieces, sharp instruments, and needles often causes bleeding on oral cavity. Therefore, the risk of cross transmission grows up. The pathogen from dental practice could spread on not only the practice itself but also the dental laboratory with contaminated impressions and prosthesis. Dental clinic staffs (dentists, dental hygienists and dental technicians) should recognize all the patients have a possibility of cross contamination, and try to prevent the transmission of infection by proper infection control. In this study, we review the articles about disinfection methods and chemical infection agents used for dental impressions, and try to figure out the suitable and effective infection control system of dental impressions.

Foliar fertilization of carbonated water during lettuce hydroponic cultivation was increased photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance as higher carbon dioxide concentration of carbonated water The higher the carbon dioxide concentration in the carbonated water was better growth of lettuce. However, the carbon dioxide concentration of 500 ppm and 700 ppm in the carbonated water was increased the tip-burn occurrence, and the yield was higher in the 300 ppm. the carbon dioxide concentration of 300 ppm in the carbonated water was lower in the fresh weight but increased yield resulted in the lower of the tip-burn occurrence The high temperature limits for growth were 32℃ in the control, 33℃ in the 300ppm and 34℃ in the 500 ppm according to analyze chlorophyll fluorescent Fo. The high temperature tolerance in lettuce increased approximately 4℃ by foliar fertilization treatments of carbonated water under this experiment conditions. Also the activity of SOD(superoxide dismutase), the antioxidant enzyme, was higher with high carbon dioxide concentration of the carbonated water.

The electrolyte wetting phenomena in the electrode of lithium ion battery is studied numerically using a multiphase lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). When a porous electrode is compressed during roll-pressing process, the porosity and thickness of the compressed electrode are changed, which can affect its wettability. In this study, the change in electrolyte distribution and degree of saturation as a result of varying the compression ratio are investigated with two-dimensional LBM approach. We found that changes in the electrolyte transport path are caused by a reduction in through-plane pore size and result in a decrease in the wettability of the compressed electrode.

The strength (MPa), hardness (Hv), shrinkage (%) and biological properties of the HAp were measured by using an organic plasticizer which facilitates the molding and heat treatment. Mechanical properties such as compressive strength, bending strength and hardness were increased with increasing amount of plasticizer, but mechanical properties were decreased when plasticizer was added more than 7 %. This is because addition of the plasticizer above the allowable value causes cracking during molding, and such cracks promote the generation of microcracks and pores at the time of sintering, resulting in a decrease in mechanical properties. As a result of the antimicrobial activity test, no bacteria were detected regardless of the addition amount of plasticizer.

울창한 숲에도 어느 정도 햇빛은 들 듯이, 태양복사에너지는 식생의 잎과 흙에 모두 미치며, 그로 인해 증산과 증발이 각각 발생한다. 이러한 사실을 반영하는 것은 현존하는 증발산 산정 방법을 개선하여 더 나은 증발산 추정치를 구하는 데에 도움이 될 것이다. 이 연구에서는 증발 표면을 수직적으로 흙층(soil layer)과 잎층(canopy layer)으로 나눠진 다층 구조로 바라보고, 각 층에서 증발산을 계산하는 방법을 도입했다. 증발 표면을 수직 상에서 구분했기에 각 층의 환경 조건은 그 층을 대표하는 높이에서 관측된 기상자료를 활용할 수 있다. 또한, 식생 활기에 따른 각 층의 복사에너지 유입량과 기공의 여닫힘에 따른 Bowen 비를 통해 식생이 증발산에 미치는 영향을 반영하는 것이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 Fluxnet에서 제공하는 공분산 방법(eddy covariance method)으로 측정한 자료를 참고하여 다층 구조가 실제 증발산 산정에 타당한가를 논했다. 시스템 내 변화는 주어진 조건에서 엔트로피가 최대로 생성되는 방향으로 발생한다는 Maximum Entropy Production (MEP) 이론을 기반으로 만들어진 증발산 산정법을 통해 각 층의 증발산을 계산했으며, 관측 증발산을 토대로 잎층과 흙층에 유입된 복사에너지의 크기를 비교했다. 결과적으로 잎층에 계산된 복사에너지 흡수능이 낙엽수림의 변화 주기를 잘 반영하는 것을 확인했으며 다층 구조를 도입하는 것이 증발산 산정 향상과 수문-식생 관계를 고려한 증발산 분석에 적절한 접근법임을 보였다.

The effects of glass composition on the wettability and reactivity with $ZrO_2$substrate was evaluated and fabrication variables and glass compositions was investigated. Various glass compositions was investigated. Alkaline earth silicate glass show good wettability and lower viscosity and crystallization of glass could be prevented by $B_2O_3$.The sealant glass begin to wet on $ZrO_2$substrate below $900^{\circ}C$ and porosity occurred in various glass compositions, the crystallization and porosity in the glass could be prevented by the addition of flux into glass composition. But flowability and reactivity of glass with $ZrO_2$substrate was enhanced. Processing variables should be optimized to reduce the porosity by enhancing the sintering of glass powder. Many silicate glasses were investigated for the applications of high temperature sealants. Wetting and bonding of glass was good enough to seal together between $ZrO_2$and other ceramic components of SOFC. But porosity and reaction layer were occurred in the sealant glass. It will be possible to produce glass sealant without porosity and reaction layer at the interface by optimization of processing variable and modify the glass compositions. In present study, wettability of glass-filler composite was investigated. The porosity, shape of filler and interfacial reactions of sealant glass with fillers were examined.

Highly loaded LiCoO₂ positive electrodes are prepared to construct high-energy density lithium-ion batteries, their electrochemical performances are evaluated. For the standard electrode, a loading of about 2.2 mAh/㎠ is used, and for a high-loading electrode, an electrode is manufactured with a loading level of about 4.4 mAh/㎠. The content of carbon black as electronic conducting additive, and the porosity of the electrode are configured differently to compare the effects of electron conduction and ionic conduction in the highly loaded LiCoO₂ electrode. It is expected that the electrochemical performance is improved as the amount of the carbon black increases, but the specific capacity of the LiCoO₂ electrode containing 7.5 weight% carbon black is rather reduced. When the conductive material is excessively provided, an increase of electrode thickness by the low content of the LiCoO₂ active material in the same loading level of the electrode is predicted as a cause of polarization growth. When the electrode porosity increases, the path of ionic transport can be extended, but the electron conduction within the electrode is disadvantageous because the contact between the active material and the carbon black particles decreases. As the electrode porosity is lowered through the sufficient calendaring of the electrode, the electrochemical performance is improved because of the better contact between particles in the electrode and the reduced electrode thickness. In the electrode design for the high-loading, it is very important to construct the path of electron conduction as well as the ion transfer and to reduce the electrode thickness.

We prepared γ-alumina beads using the amorphous alumina, obtained by fast calcination of gibbsite, and its were immersed in aqueous solution of the mixture of 21.87% nitric acid and 28.57% acetic acid. The beads thus were hydrothermaly treated at 200$^{\circ}$C for 3h, and were investigated changes of crystal, pore characteristics, $N_2$ adsorption and desorption isotherms, mechanical strengths and thermal resistance. Acicular platelet crystals of 0.1∼0.3${\mu}$m were transformed into acicular boehmite crystals of 1∼2${\mu}$m having the same crystal structure. Through this changes, we found that reversible phase transformation due to hydrothermal reaction took placed between boehmite and ${\gamma}$-alumina. In comparison to the ${\gamma}$-alumina bead before hydrothermal treatment, $N_2$ adsorption capacity was increased from 450㎖/g to 670㎖/g, and pore volume between 100${\AA}$ and 1000${\AA}$ was increased form 0.15㎖/g to 0.77㎖g, and mechanical strength was increased form 1.4MPa to 2.2MPa. Also, it showed the remarkable thermal resistance which sustained ${\theta}$-alumina crystal structure and pores between 100${\AA}$ and 1000${\AA}$ at 1000$^{\circ}$C in 40vol% steam.
