본 연구는 방염성능시험에 의한 필름 및 도료처리 시료를 대상으로 화재 시 발생하는 연소가스 중의 독성에 대하여 NES 713 방법에 의해 분석하고, 독성지수를 확인함으로써 연소 시 인체에 미치는 영향을 간접적으로 확인해 보고자 하였다. 기존 방염제품 중 필름과 도료처리 그리고 도료처리 후 기간이 경과한 시료의 3가지로 실험군을 구분하였으며, NES 713 방법으로 연소가스를 분석하고 독성지수를 평가하였으며, 추가로 기존의 국내 노출기준과의 비교를 수행하였으며, 국내 NES 713 방법을 활용한 선행연구들을 참조하였다. 발암가능 추정물질인 아크릴로니트릴은 총 18개의 시료에서 검출되었으며, 포름알데히드는 9개의 시료에서 검출되었다. 염화수소와 브롬화수소는 각각 5개의 시료들에서 검출된 반면에 도료처리된 시료에서는 각각 1개만이 검출되었다. 그 외 일산화탄소와 이산화탄소 그리고 질소산화물은 모든 시료에서 공통적으로 검출되었다. 독성지수는 최소 3.5에서 최고 9.4의 값을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 수행한 NES 713 분석결과와 독성지수 산출 및 기존 국내 노출기준과의 비교를 수행해 본 결과는 다음과 같았다. 첫째, 현행 국내 기준 상 방염제품의 독성시험 등에 관한 기준이 없고, 둘째, 방염제품에 대한 연소가스 독성 등을 평가한 선행연구가 제한적이라는 점에서 의미가 있을 것으로 사료된다. 하지만 독성지수의 적용이 국내에서 이루어지고 있지 않은 현실에서 산출도나 독성지수의 위해정도를 평가하기 어렵고, 시료의 수량이 총 18개로서 많지 않았다는 점에서 전체 방염제품의 연소가스 독성의 잠재적인 위험성을 추정할 수는 있지만 대표성을 갖기에는 문제점이 있다는 한계성을 벗어날 수 없었다. 따라서 향후 후속 연구에서는 보다 많은 방염제품들을 대상으로 무작위 선정을 통한 연구 설계 및 실험 연구가 수행된다면 보다 객관적이고 대표성을 지닌 연구결과를 도출할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

This study investigates the toxicity characteristics of two Non-Class 1E Cables (For security reasons, we refer to company A and company B) used in nuclear power plants according to the accelerated deterioration period. In accordance with NES 713 test equipment and standards, tests were carried out on non-aged cables and the cables subjected to 20- and 40-year-accelerated-deterioration; each of the cables was further classified into sheath and insulation. The test results showed that the toxicity indices of 20- and 40-year-accelerated-aged cables were higher than those for the non-aged cables, and 20-year-aged cables of both A and B companies showed the highest toxicity indices. This is attributed to the extensive emissions of carbon monoxide and halide gases such as hydrogen chloride and hydrogen bromide. Furthermore, to analyze the toxicity indices of sheath and insulation in detail, the US Department of Defense standard (MIL-DTL) was applied to determine whether the Toxicity index (T.I.) allowance was exceeded, and the results showed that the insulating materials emitted considerably more than the allowable limit.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate flame retardant performance, thermal stability and toxicity of combustion gases for some commercial wallpapers. ID evaluate flame retardant performance 45 degree combustion experiment method was used and thermal stability was evaluated using DSC and TGA apparatus (OSC-50/Shimadzu, TGA2050/TA Instruments Inc) . Concentrations of CO, $CO_2$, HCN and HCI were measured with (GASTEC/Japan, MSA400 Gas Monitor/Infitron Inc) and toxicity indices using NIST N-Gas Model were applied to evaluate the toxicity of combustion gases. The evaluation produced the following results : First, paper cork and PVC wallpaper treated with flame retardants were found to be suitable for flame retardant performance standards. Second, paper, cork and PVC wallpaper non-treated with flame retardants were shown to be relatively more hazardous because they had greater calorific values and a faster decomposition time than the flame retardant treated wallpapers. Third, the toxicity indices of non-treated wallpapers were found to be higher than those of treated wallpapers, and the toxicity index of PVC wallpapers was higher than those of paper and cork wallpapers.

This study was undertaken to investigate the cytotoxicity of orthodontic wires after doing various treatments to the wires. 018x025 inch Stainless steel(A) and Co-Cr(B) wires were used and each of them were divided into 4 groups. A-1 and B-1 groups were as received state, and A-2 and B-2 groups were heat treated. A-3 and B-3 groups were electropolished after heat treatment, and A-4 and B-4 groups were soldered with Ag-solder. Each group had 3 wires and these were sterilized with Ethylene Oxide gas. We used human gingival fibroblast cell culture and agar overlay technique to investigate the cytotoxicity of each group of wires. The cytotoxicity of wire was assessed using reaction index (zone index/lysis index). The findings of this study were as follows. 1. Both of the stainless steel wire and Co-Cr wire showed no cytotoxicity in as received state. 2. Heat treatment or electropolishing of the wires had no effect on the cytotoxicity of the wires 3. Soldered stainless steel wires showed a little wider zone of discoloration than soldered Co-Cr wires, but the zone index and cytotoxicity(reaction index) was not different. 4. Soldered wires showed moderate cytotoxicity in both of the wires.

Community question and answering service is one of the main sources of information and knowledge in the Web. The quality of information in question and answer documents is determined by the clarity of the question and the relevance of the answers, and the readability of a document is a key factor for evaluating the quality. This study is to measure the quality of documents used in community question and answering service. For this purpose, we compare the frequency of occurrence by vocabulary level used in community documents and measure the readability index of documents by institution of author. To measure the readability index, we used the Dale-Chall formula which is calculated by vocabulary level and sentence length. The results show that the vocabulary used in the answers is more difficult than in the questions and the sentence length is longer. The gap in readability between questions and answers is also found by writing institution. The results of this study can be used as basic data for improving online counseling services.

Casualties due to toxic smoke products have been reported as major fire damage. There are various tests in order to evaluate toxic smoke from a fire at home and abroad, and KS F 2271 as a test of the gas hazard of building finish materials has been conducted in Korea. The current test of the gas hazard exposes rodent, laboratory rat, to smoke gases to evaluate combustion gas toxicity by measuring acting time of that. this study performed a test of the gas hazard for combustible polymer material, Urethane and rubber flooring, and determined gases with the FT-IR. Quantitative results compared with standard value defined in BS6853 and toxicity index (R) was calculated. Using relative comparison with animal test and the toxicity index, We tried a variety of toxicity evaluation by correlation analysis of two tests.
