This study was carried out to investigate the contamination characteristics of surface water, soil water and groundwater around and in antimony waste landfill site in Wonsung-ri, Yeonki-kun, Chungnam. The waste disposed in the study was excavated and transported to the other site in several years ago. For this study, we collected 35 water samples including groundwater, soil water and surface in the study site and also collected 2 groundwater samples from a comparison site. The data of chemical analysis of soil water samples show the antimony concentration of $48.75{\sim}74.81\;ppb$, which is much higher than groundwater in a comparison site and is highly excess than regulation level for a drinking water of some advanced countries. A relatively high antimony concentration was detected in three stream water samples nearby landfill site and two groundwater samples. Fe and Mn contents in soil water and stream water were measured as maxium 6.5 mg/L and 7.3 mg/L, respectively. Although other heavy metals of water samples in the study site are higher concentration than water sample of comparison site, their absolute levels are lower than regulation level for a drinking water. The chemical data of water samples are plotted widely from Ca - $HCO_3$ type to Ca - ($Cl +SO_4+NO_3$) type. Some groundwater show high contents of potassium and nitrate, which would come from fertilizer and sewage. Conclusively, some heavy metals including antimony have been still remained under the soil surface of the landfill site in the past. These metals have leaked out into nearby stream and groundwater system, and threaten the ecology, crops and the health of residents in this site. Therefore, the government have to prepare the strategy to prevent the diffusion of heavy metals into aquatic environment and have to process the reclamation work for contaminated site. It is also necessary to make a regulation level of the antimony concentration for a drinking water and soil environment in Korea.

The rate of chlorine-exchange reaction of antimony trichloride with benzyl, $\alpha$-phenyl ethyl and diphenyl methyl chlorides in nitrobenzene have been determined. The results indicate that the chlorine-exchange reaction follows second-order kinetics with respect to antimony trichloride and first-order kinetics with respect to organic chlorides. Rate = $k_3[SbCl_3]^2$ [Org-Cl] The rate constants of chlorine-exchange of antimony trichloride with organic chloride increase in the following order of the organic chlorides. Benzyl chloride < $\alpha$-phenyl ethyl chloride < diphenyl methyl chloride The mechanism of the chlorine-exchange reactions has been proposed.

열가소성 고분자 물질인 PET[poly(ethylene terephthalate)]는 섬유 및 필름, 음료병 등에 널리 사용되는 대표적인 범용 소재이며, 전체 PET 제조업은 2013년 약 200억불에 달할 것으로 예상되는 큰 시장이다. 최근 급격한 산업화에 따른 전 세계적인 환경오염의 심각성이 부각되면서 기업들의 환경 친화적인 제조 활동 및 생산 프로세스의 개선이 요구되고 있다. 현재 폴리에스테르 수지를 제조하기 위해 국내외 업체에서 가장 널리 사용 되고 있는 중합촉매는 중금속 원소인 고순도 삼산화안티몬($Sb_2O_3$)이며 통상 중합공정 중에 150~300ppm의 촉매가 사용된다. 세계보건기구(WHO)의 국제암연구기관(IARC)에서는 안티몬을 인체 발암성이 있는 물질로 분류 하여 현재 유럽을 중심으로 안티몬 사용을 제한하는 환경 규제가 가속화 되고 있다. 폴리에스테르 수지 제조 공정중 안티몬 촉매를 사용할 경우 정련, 염색, 알칼리 감량시 중금속(안티몬)검출에 따른 수질 오염 및 폐수처리비용이 증가하게 되며 대량의 중합촉매 사용에 따른 이물 증가로 작업성 및 품질 문제가 상존하게 된다. 따라서 이러한 제조 공정중의 고위험성 물질을 대체할 친환경, 고부가가치 신규 무독성 PET 소재 및 제품이 각광을 받게 될 것이다. 이번 연구에서는 티타늄계(Ti-based) 무독성 촉매를 이용하여 PET 중합을 실시한 Sb-free PET원단의 염색특성을 알아보는 것으로 분산염료 3종 (Red, Yellow, Blue)으로 염색이 완료된 원단을 spectrophotometer 를 이용하여 L, a b값과 K/S값으로 측정하였다. 동일한 염색 조건을 위해 두 종류의 원단을 하나의 실린더에서 기존 PET 염색과 동일한 조건으로 염색을 실시하였으며 실험 결과 전반적으로 기존 PET와 유사한 염색 특성을 보였다. 염색견뢰도 평가에서도 Sb-free PET원단과 기존 PET원단의 세탁 견뢰도, 마찰 견뢰도, 일광 견뢰도를 비교 했을 시 두 원단 모두 4~5급으로 우수한 견뢰도를 나타내었다.

Purposes: The purposes of this study were to investigate the optical, structural and electrical properties of the antimony doped tin oxide(ATO) thin films according to certain variable deposition conditions, such as RF input power and T-S (target-substrate) distance change, using transparent conducting oxide (TCO). Methods: ATO thin films of Sb concentration ratio with $SnO_2:Sb_2O_5$ = 95:5 wt% were deposited at room temperature by RF magnetron sputtering method. Results: ATO thin films were most sensitive to the RF input power: light transmittance was 78% at RF input power of 30W, and 0.56 nm for the surface roughness and 1007 $\Omega{\cdot}cm^{-2}$ for the sheet resistance as well. Conclusions: It was found that ATO thin films were showed the large change in its characteristics of structural, optical and electrical properties which were affected by T-S distance and RF input power.

A spectrophotometric method for the determination of major impurities, such as iron and copper, in high purity of antimony with 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine) has been studied. The iron-oxinate is stable at the pH range 5.0 to 5.7, and the copper-oxinate at the pH range 3.5 to 4.0. To mask antimony in sulfuric acid solution of sample, author has investigated the effect of tartaric acid on antimony, and found that 10ml of 0.5M tartaric acid solution could mask up to 600mg of antimony. The absorbance of iron-oxinate was measured at 580$m{\mu}$ and iron could be determined, but it is necessary for copper-oxinate to measure at 410 and 580m respectively after removing heavy metals other than copper by back extraction with 15% solution of sodium hydroxide, and copper could be determined by making a correction for the amounts of iron present. Up to 150 ${\mu}g$ of iron (0.005-0.03%), and 100 ${\mu}g$ of copper (0.005-0.016%), in 500mg of antimony could be determined.

We investigated chemical states of a $Sb_2Te_3$ thin film with the polycrystalline phase by using high-resolution x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy with synchrotron radiation. The $Sb_2Te_3$ thin film was formed by sputtering. The rhombohedral phase was confirmed by x-ray diffraction. To remove the surface oxide, we performed $Ne^+$ ion sputtering for 1 hour with the beam energy of 1 kV and post-annealing at $100^{\circ}C$ for 5 min in ultra-high vacuum. We obtained the Te and Sb 4d core-levels spectra with the peaks at the binding energies of 40.4 and 33.0 eV, respectively. The full-width of half maximum of both the Te and Sb $4d_{5/2}$ core-levels is 0.9 eV. The Te and Sb core-levels only show a single chemical state, and we also confirmed the stoichiometry of approximately 2 : 3.

상용화 마찰재를 사용하여 고온 열화에 대한 원료들의 영향을 연구하였다. 제한된 영역에서의 실험계획법에 의해 25개의 마찰재가 제작되었으며, 축소 마찰 시험기로 마찰, 마모특성을 조사하였다. 아라미드 섬유, 흑연, 구리섬유는 열화에 대한 저항성을 향상시켰으며, 반면 삼황화 안티몬, 지르콘은 열화현상을 가속시키는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 각 원료들이 계면에 미치는 영향이 각기 다르기 때문으로 사료된다. 아라미드 섬유, 흑연, 구리섬유등은 계면을 안정화 시켰으며, 삼황화 안티몬, 지르콘등은 고온에서 불안정한 계면을 형성시키는 것으로 나타났다.
