The possibility of ASR(alkali-silica reaction) for coarse aggregates had known to be low up to recently in Korea. But the distress of ASR was identified and reported by ASTM C 1260 test. The purpose of this paper was to identify the effect of environmental conditions on length expansion of mortar-bar by alkali-silica reaction with KS F 2546 and ASTM C 1260 test. The results of this study were as following; The result of KS F 2546 test for five kinds of aggregates shows that all of them are non-reactive. But that of ASTM C 1260 test shows that all of aggregates except Andesite-2 are over possible reactive because of environmental condition such as external alkali ion by 1N NaOH, high temperature and humidity. The result of variety of NaOH concentration on ASTM C 1260 using Siltstone indicates that length expansion rate increases highly as NaOH concentration increases. And, comparison results of KS F 2546 for Siltstone with that of 0.00N NaOH experiment indicates that length expansion rate increases as temperature and humidity increases.

New thin-and diselena-crown ethers containing two suffer and selenium donor atoms have been prepared. And then, mercury ($Hg^{2+}$) ion-selective electrodes with PVC-plasticizer (STPB) based on some macrocycles as neutral carriers were also made. The electrochemical selectivities for various ions, and the effects for macrocycles, matrix of membranes, ratio of plasticizer to macrowcles, concentration and pH of test solution were investigated on the $Hg^{2+}$ ion-selective electrodes. The 1, 10-diselena-18-crown-6-PVC-STPB (sodium tetraphenylborate) exhibited good linear responses of ${28.2}\pm{0.6}$ decade-1 for $Hg^{2+}$ ion in the conientration ranges of $10^{-2}~10^{-6}$ M $Hg^{2+}$ ion. This electrode exhibited comparatively good selectivities for $Hg^{2+}$ ion in comparison with alkali and alkaline earth metal ions, some heavy metal ions and rare earth metal ion in the range of pH 2.5~6.0. In addition, this electrode was applied as a sensor in the titration of $Hg^{2+}$ ion with $1^-$ ion in water.

As the effectiveness of ionic water that mainly used for the purpose of treatment has been widely known with the recent "well-being" trend, people's interest in it is also gradually increasing. Especially, the alkaline ionic water for drinking purpose could conveniently provide different types/amount of inorganics required for different dietary life depending on nature and race, could effectively provide alkaline inorganics that could be insufficient to modern Korean people, and also could provide alkaline inorganics that prevent/cure/relieve pregnant women's morning sickness. Applying the suggested performance/manufacturing method of alkaline ionic water through the performance assessment of alkaline electrolytic ionic water of the developed product, it would be necessary to have additional researches on the improvement of product or parallel development that could be applied to diverse areas.

Poly(vinyl chloride)(PVC) membrane electrodes based on the lipophilic neutral carrier, dibenzo-18-crown-6(DB18C6) and benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5) as the active sensors for Tl$^+$ ion have been prepared and tested in different content of the potassium tetrakis(4-chlorophenyl)borate (KTClPB) as lipophilic salt. Dioctyl adipate (DOA), 2-nitrophenyl phenyl ether (NPPE) and o-nitrophenyl actyl ether (NPOE) were used as plasticizing solvent mediators. Electrodes exhibited good linear responses of 40∼55 mV decade$^{-1}$ for Tl$^+$ ion within the concentration ranges 10$^{-1}$∼10$^{-5}$M TlNO$_3$. Selectivity coefficients of interfering ions (alkali metal, alkaline earth metal and some transition metal ions) for Tl$^+$-ISE were determined by separate solution method and were sufficiently small for most of them. These crown ether type ion-selective electrodes are suitable for use with aqueous solution at pH > 3.

Time-dependent behavior similar to secondary deformation related to mineral dissolution is easily observed when performing a laboratory pressure experiment. In this research, to observe the dissolution of quartz found in bentonite used as buffer material for the geological disposal of high-level waste (HLW) under conditions of high pH, we calculated the diffusion of $OH^-$ ions and the behavior of quartz dissolution using the homogenization analysis method. The results reveal that the rate of quartz dissolution is proportional to the temperature and interlayer water thickness. In particular, in a high-pH environment, the reacted area (and therefore the dissolution rate) increases with decreasing interlayer water thickness.

기후변화는 더 이상 피할 수 없는 매우 중요한 문제다. 온실가스 중 큰 비중을 차지하는 이산화탄소 배출을 억제하거나 제거하기 위한 많은 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 최근에는 CCS 중 하나인 지중저장(underground storage)의 대안으로 해양에 이산화탄소를 저장하는 기술인 AWL(Accelerated Weathering of Limestone)을 이용한 해양저장(ocean storage)에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. AWL은 이산화탄소를 중탄산이온 형태의 농축수로 만들어 해양에 방류하여 희석 저장시키는 방법으로, 대기 중 재방출이 거의 발생하지 않고 배출된 농축수는 해양의 알칼리도를 높여 해양산성화를 방지할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 금회 연구는 AWL에 의한 방법 중 중탄산이온 농축수의 해양방류 시 이산화탄소 등을 포함하는 용존 무기탄소(DIC, Dissolved Inorganic Carbon)의 거동특성을 파악하기 위한 목적으로 수행하였다. 연구대상 해역은 충분한 수심과 작업효율성이 확보되는 울릉도 부근으로 설정하였으며, 거동특성을 파악하기 위하여 표층방류(surface discharge)와 수중방류(submerged discharge)에 의한 물질확산을 계산할 수 있는 CORMIX모형을 채택하였다. 실험결과, 방류 시점으로부터의 희석률을 고려했을 때, 표층방류 시나리오가 농축수 방류에 가장 적합한 방식이라고 사료된다.

$MoO{_4}^{2-}$ is the stable chemical species of Mo(VI) in alkaline solution. In the pH range of 2 to 6, condensation polymerization between $MoO{_4}^{2-}$ and hydrogen ion results in the formation of various polyanions of Mo(VI). Polycations of Mo(VI) begin to form when solution pH is less than 2. As the concentration of inorganic acid increases, polycations of Mo(VI) can react with the anion of the inorganic acid, resulting in the formation of heteranions of Mo(VI). The distribution of Mo(VI) species at pH < 6 depends on the concentration of Mo(V) and inorganic acid. In order to analyze the solvent extraction and ion exchange data on Mo(VI) from concentrated inorganic acid solution, it is necessary to elucidate the nature of Mo(VI) complexes.

The purpose of the research was to examine the utilization of waste bittern from salt farm as a source for producing magnesium (Mg). In this work, a precipitation process for recovering Mg, where Mg is precipitated as $Mg(OH)_2$ by the addition of NaOH solution, was investigated. At the NaOH/Mg molar ratios of 2.70 : 1 to 2.75 : 1 and pH 9.5-10, > 99% of Mg could be precipitated from the bittern. The molar concentration of NaOH solution added as an alkaline reagent had no significant influence on the recovery efficiency of Mg precipitate. The particle size of Mg precipitate was strongly affected by the flow rate of caustic addition. The faster the flow rate of caustic addition, the smaller particles were formed. The Mg precipitate recovered was 100-120 g per 1 L of bittern and contained 94% $Mg(OH)_2$ after washing with water. Our results showed that the bittern can be used as a potential resource for Mg production.

In this study, an anion-exchange ionomer solution was prepared by grinding poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (PPO) in liquid nitrogen for solid alkaline fuel cells (SAFCs). Type of quaternized PPO (QPPO) solutions was controlled by grinding time. The ionomer binder solutions were characterized in terms of dispersity, particle size, and electrochemical properties. As a result, ionomer binder solutions using grinded polymer showed higher dispersion and smaller particle size distribution than that using non-grinded polymer. The highest ionic conductivity and IEC of the membrane recast by using BPPO-G120s were $0.025S\;cm^{-1}$ and $1.26meq\;g^{-1}$, respectively.

A new potassium sensitive field effect transistor modified with 4'-aminobenzo-15-crown-5 was prepared and its response characteristics were evaluated. The response slope of $K^{+}-ISFET$ for pH was 30.0 mV/decade and the response time was mere than 3 minutes. And the response slope and time of the $K^{+}-ISFET$ for potassium ion as $19.5{\pm}0.2{\;}mV/decade$ and about 3 minutes, respectively. The linear response range of the sensor for potassium ion was $2.0{\times}10^{-4}{\sim}1.0{\times}10^{-2}M$. The selectivity coefficients of the $K^{+}-ISFET$ for the alkali and alkaline earth metal ions were also evaluated. Sodium, ammonium and calcium ions exhibited relatively significant interference. The long term stability of the sensor was remarkably improved and it could be used for more than 50 days.
