The PBD (Plastic Board Drain) method is one of effective ground improvement methods on the soft dredging reclamation ground. This method has outstanding economic efficiency and constructability, and it is widely used for the soft ground improvement. However, the PBD method reduces permeability and drainage capacity of the ground due to the long construction period. Therefore, the nano coated Plastic drain board (PDB) was developed to solve problems. It is the non-metallic electrode and improves the weakness of the PBD method by using electric force of the electro-osmosis method. Various researches have been conducted to apply the nano coated PDB, but these researches were limited to model tests in laboratory. In this study, model and field tests were conducted to assess field applicability of the nano coated PDB. The result showed that the nano coated PDB had the better effect on the ground improvement compared to the normal PDB.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate whether the application of nano-structured alumina coating to the surface of Y-TZP could enhance the bond strength with resin cement. Materials and methods: A total of 80 zirconia plates were prepared and divided into four groups. : 1) airborne particle abrasion treatment (A) : 2) Rocatec treatment after airborne particle abrasion (R) : 3) nano-structured alumina coating treatment after polishing (PC) and 4) nano-structured alumina coating after airborne particle abrasion (AC). Alumina coating was formed by the hydrolysis of aluminium nitride (AlN) powder and heat treatment at $900^{\circ}C$. Coating patterns were observed with FE-SEM. Resin block was bonded to treated zirconia ceramics using resin cement. The shear bond strengths were measured before and after thermocycling. Results: The FE-SEM images show a dense and uniform nano-structured alumina coating structure, which enhances shear bond strength by increasing micro mechanical interlocking to resin cement. PC and AC groups showed higher shear bond strengths than A and R groups before and after thermocycling. A and R groups displayed significant drops in shear bond strength after thermocycling. However, PC and AC groups did not show any meaningful decreases in shear bond strength after thermocycling. Conclusion: Treatment of Y-TZP ceramics with nano-structured alumina coating could significantly increase their shear bond strength.

국내의 등산용 아웃도어 제품의 경우, 기능성인 투습도와 내수압만을 증대시키려는 연구가 주류를 이루고 있었다. 하지만, 실제 등산용 아웃도어의 경우 산악지형인 고지대에서 사용시간이 많으므로, 이에 따른 장시간의 직접적인 태양광 노출로 인한 인체에 치명적인 영향을 야기시키고 있지만, 인체 보호용 헬스케어 아웃도어 제품에 대한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 태양광은 자외선 2.5%, 가시광선 51.5%, 적외선 46.0%의 광량 비율을 가지고 있으며, 이 중 자외선은 광량은 적지만 에너지적으로 높아 유기물 분해 및 열화를 일으킨다. 이러한 자외선을 차단하기위해 아웃도어 의류에서는 유무기하이브리드 소재를 표면에 코팅시키게 되며, 기능성 코팅액내에 함유되어 있는 나노분말의 경우 이산화티타늄($TiO_2$), 산화세륨(CeO), 산화아연(ZnO), 삼산화텅스텐($WO_3$), 산화마그네슘(MgO) 등이 주로 사용되어 진다. 본 연구에서는 자외선 흡수소재로 나노산화아연분말을 이용하여, 그 입도 및 코팅용 희석 용매내의 분산성을 확인하고, 함유량을 달리한 코팅 수지를 제조하여, 코팅시편 제조 후 그 특성을 비교/분석하여 자외선 차단 효과를 확인하고자 한다.

Interfacial durability and electrical properties of CNT or ITO coated PVDF nanocomposites were investigated for self-sensor and micro actuator applications. Electrical resistivity of nanocomposites for the durability on interfacial adhesion was measured using four points method via fatigue test under cyclic loading. CNT/PVDF nanocomposite exhibited lower electrical resistivity and good self-sensing performance due to inherent electrical property. Durability on the interfacial adhesion was good for both CNT and ITO/PVDF nanocomposites. With static contact angle measurement, surface energy, work of adhesion, and spreading coefficient between either CNT or ITO and PVDF were obtained to verify the correlation with interfacial adhesion durability. The optimum actuation performance of CNT or ITO coated PVDF specimen was measured by the displacement change using laser displacement sensor with changing frequency and voltage. The displacement of actuated nanocomposites decreased with increasing frequency, whereas the displacement increased with voltage increment. Due to nanostructure and inherent electrical properties, CNT/PVDF nanocomposite exhibited better performance as self-sensor and micro actuator than ITO/PVDF case.

Iron oxide nanoparticles were prepared by the thermal decomposition of iron pentacarbonyl (Fe(CO)$_5$) Poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) was used as surface-modifying agent to control the size of the iron oxide nanoparticles. The crystalline structure of PVP coated iron oxide nanoparticles was determined by XRD. The size of PVP coated iron oxide nanoparticles was determined by TEM and ELS. The particle sizes of PVP coated iron oxide nanoparticles were controlled by adjusting the molar ratio of PVP/Fe (CO)$_5$, solvent and molecular weight of PVP Particle sizes increased with increasing PVP content. Spherical $50\~100$ nm sized iron oxide nanoclusters were produced when dimethylformamide was used as a solvent. And well-defined 10 nm iron oxide nanoparticles were produced in Carbitol. The prepared PVP coated iron oxide nanoparticles exhibited a well-dispersed property in water. The results obtained in this study confirmed the feasibility of the PVP-coated iron oxide nanoparticles as a biomaterial for MRI contrast agent.

박막으로 표면처리한 다양한 강판이 자동차 차체와 부품, 가전제품 등의 제조를 위해 여러 가지 판재 성형공정에 적용되고 있으나, 제품 개발기간과 비용 감소, 성형과정에서 표면 코팅층의 특성 변화로 인해 성형성 열화와 성형불량을 줄이면서, 제품의 고정밀화, 고품질화를 실현하기 위해서는 코팅층에 대한 기계적 특성과 마찰거동을 명확히 규명하는 것이 반드시 필요하다 현재 나노 마이크로 수준인 코팅층의 기계적 물성치를 측정하기 위해 가장 널리 사용되는 방법은 나노 인덴테이션이다.(중략)

The coating of metal surface with carbon nanotubes(CNTs) has been studied for the heat transfer enhancement of the boiling and condensation of refrigerant. The multiwalled carbon nanotube/copper oxide(CuO) composite powder, which has been surface modified by dispersant and polyvinyl alcohol solution, was ultrasonically sprayed and sintered on a copper wafer. In this paper, experiments were performed to assess the characterization and comparison of the carbon nanotube before and after sinterning and the morphology changes of the CNT/CuO-coated surface by using different dispersants. The dispersants used are THF (Tetrahydrofuran), SDBS(Dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid sodium salt), SDS(Sodium dodecy sulfate). The samples were examined by scanning electron microscopy(SEM), thermogravimetric analysis(TGA), differential scanning calorimeter(DSC) and Raman spectroscopy.

The improvement of electrical conductivity of carbon-fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) has been investigated by silver nano-particles coating for the purpose of lightning strike protection. Silver nano-particles in colloid were sprayed on the surface of carbon fibers, which were then impregnated by epoxy resin to form a CFRP specimen. Electrical resistance was measured by contact resistance meter which utilize the principles of the AC 4-terminal method. Electrical resistance value was then converted to electrical conductivity. The coated silver nano-particles on the carbon fibers were verified by SEM and EDS. The electrical conductivity was increased by three times of the ordinary CFRP.

The effect of reaction conditions on the size and size distribution of superparamagnetic iron oxide coated with siloxane was big investigated by using dynamic light scattering. The hydrogen bond between the hydroxyl groups on tile surface of the magnetite and silanol was confirmed by FT-IR. The size of nanoparticles increased with the reaction temperature, but decreased with monomer contents and agitation speeds. There was not a big difference in size of nanoparticles, prepared by different reaction conditions, but its distribution was in the range of 14∼41nm. All samples exhibited the superparamagnetic nature. The magnetic susceptibility of the nanoparticles increased with the reaction temperature while it decreased with the monomer content and agitation speed.
