With aiming to prepare microcapsules having a particle size of $30-50{\mu}m$, thermally expandable capsules with relatively uniform particle sizes consisting of a n-octane/poly(acrylonitrile-co-methyl methacrylate) core/shell structure were synthesized using SPG membrane emulsification and suspension polymerization. Four steric stabilizers and five crosslinking agents were employed. When poly(vinyl alcohol) as a stabilizer was used, the prepared capsules showed a smooth and regular morphology and the liquid hydrocarbon (n-octane) was well encapsulated in the core. When 1,4-butnaediol methacrylate (BDDMA) was used as a crosslinker, the uniform capsules with the average diameter of $36.8{\mu}m$ were synthesized. The capsules prepared with 0.05 mol% BDDMA showed the best encapsulation efficiency.

In this work, we developed and evaluated the Liquid Particle Generator for generating fine particles in the air. The Liquid Particle Generator, which was based on the spray-evaporation method, had two kinds of orifices: 0.3 mm and 0.5 mm. The Liquid Particle Generator was operated at different pressure between 1 bar and 4 bars to find relationship between input pressure and droplet output rate. In addition, the size distribution of the droplets generated by the Liquid Particle Generator with different orifices was measured by the SMPS system and the optical particle counter. As a result, it was shown that the Liquid Particle Generator with 0.3 mm orifice generated droplets of around 0.3 ${\mu}m$ and atomized particles very stably. The Liquid Particle Generator having 0.5 mm orifice generated bigger droplets, compared with the Liquid Particle Generator with 0.3 mm orifice. Additionally, in these Liquid Particle Generators (0.3 mm and 0.5 mm orifice), little coagulation of particles did occur because of fine droplets atomized by the jet. Therefore, the Liquid Particle Generator could be used as an aerosol generator for atomizing fine particles.

The consolidation application of SILRES BS OH 100 was investigated, which has been used for consolidation of the weathered shale. The liquid SILRES BS OH 100 was polymerized by the sol-gel reaction with air moisture, and the XRD patterns showed that the gel was an amorphous solid. The drastic weight reduction of the sample was found by differential thermal analysis, which was followed to the formation of $Si(OH)_4$ particles. After consolidation, the polymerized gel was filled into the voids within the shale. The capillary water absorption of the consolidated shale was reduced to 48.7%, and the abrasive strength was improved.

Electrorheological(ER) fluid's storage shear modulus(G') and loss factor(${\eta}$) have been directly measured using small amplitude forced oscillating rheometer as a function of oscillating frequency, strain amplitude and applied electric field. Two types of experiment were performed , (a) frequency sweep and (b) amplitude sweep. Two kinds of sample were employed for this experiment ; cornstarch particles in corn oil and zeolite particles in silicone oil. The storage shear modulus was a strong function of driving frequency. Generally, the modulus increased with driving frequency. On the other hand, the loss factor was not well behaved as storage modulus, but as the driving frequency increases the loss factor slightly decreases was the trend of the material's characteristics. Also the modulus was a strong function of strain amplitude. Generally, modulus decreased with increasing strain, but loss factor increases slightly with increasing strain amplitude. For G', cornstarch in corn oil ER fluid has higher values than zeolite based fluid as we increased applied electric field. On the other hand, zeolite based fluid has higher values for ${\eta}$. There is a reasonable agreement between theoretical calculation and experiment.

제지산업은 다량의 용수를 사용하면서 또한 많은 양의 폐수를 배출하고 있다. 기존의 폐수처리 공정에서는 침전처리를 위한 큰 저수조와 오랜 침강 시간이 요구되어 제한된 공장 내에서의 처리에 어려움이 많다. 이러한 기존 기술의 문제점을 보완하면서도 새로운 고도처리가 가능한 초전도 마그네트를 이용한 자기분리 기술을 적용하고자 하였다. 자기문리의 기본 원리는 강력한 자기력에 의하여 액체에 포함된 자성입자를 분리해내는 것으로 자성입자들이 자계의 힘에 의하여 잡아당겨지고 포획됨으로서 제거되는 것이다. 자기분리용 솔레노이드 마그네트로 초전도마그네트를 적용하게 되면 아주 높은 고구배의 자장(HGMS; High Gradient Magnetic Separation) 을 발생시킬 수 있다. 초전도마그네트와 체(sieve) 형 자기필터를 이용하면 대공간에 전력손실 없이 고자장을 발생시킬 수 있기 때문에 미립자를 효과적으로 고속으로 분리하는 것이 가능해지며 또한 상자성 미세입자까지도 처리할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 주로 유기물로 구성된 제지며|수의 부유물을 자성체와의 응집반응에 의해 플록을 형성하여 자성 플록의 자기분리 효과를 연구하였다. 자성응집반응의 특성을 평가하기 위하여 전자석 시스템을 제작하였으며 배치타입의 자기필터를 설계 제작하였다. 또한 응집제의 종류와 응집반응 공정에 따른 자성플록의 형성 정도를 조사하였으며 자기분리 후 폐수의 탁도, SS 등의 특성을 분석하였다. 그림 1은 자성응집반응의 특성을 평가하기 위하여 제작한 전자석 시스템을 나타내고 있으며 전자석의 자장해석 결과를 보이고 있다.

Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods were grown on the pre-oxidized silicon substrate with the assistance of Au and the fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) based on the catalysts by vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) synthesis. Two types of ZnO powder particle size, 20nm, $20{\mu}m$, were used as a source material, respectively The properties of the nanorods such as morphological characteristics, chemical composition and crystalline properties were examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). The particle size of ZnO source strongly affected the growth of ZnO nanostructures as well as the crystallographic structure. All the ZnO nanostructures are hexagonal and single crystal in nature. It is found that $1030^{\circ}C$ is a suitable optimum growth temperature and 20 nm is a optimum ZnO powder particle size. Nanorods were fabricated on the FTO deposition with large electronegativity and we found that the electric potential of nanorods rises as the ratio of current rises, there is direct relationship with the catalysts, Therefore, it was considered that Sn can be the alternative material of Au in the formation of ZnO nanostructures.

$Pd/TiO_2$ catalysts for aerobic benzyl alcohol oxidation were synthesized and eight different room temperature ionic liquids were used to control the palladium properties as active sites. $Pd/TiO_2$ particles were also calcined at 300, 400 and $500^{\circ}C$ to obtain an optimum catalyst. As the calcination temperature increased, the surface area and pore volume of catalyst decreased, but negligible changes were observed for the pore size of catalyst. However, the structural properties of catalyst varied with respect to the type of ionic liquids. Under identical reaction conditions, different catalytic activities were obtained depending upon the calcination temperature and type of ionic liquids. Mostly, the catalyst calcined at $400^{\circ}C$ showed higher catalytic activity than those at other temperatures. However, the catalyst prepared with 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate and 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate showed good catalytic performance after calcination at $300^{\circ}C$. Among the catalyst, $Pd/TiO_2$ prepared with 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate and calcined at $400^{\circ}C$ showed the highest catalytic activity.

The primary purpose of this study was to investigate high school students' conceptual understanding of density for solids and liquids in pure and mixed substances who had preceded formal school science instruction on density and related topics. A concept assessment on density was developed and administered by demonstrative experiments accompanied by a written assessment test method to 120 general high school students in a metropolitan city. The scientific conceptions and alternative conceptions from students' responses were identified and the percentages of them were calculated. Then, their alternative conceptions and implicit theories on density were analyzed. About half of the students couldn't differentiate weight-volume-density and regarded density as an innate property of matter. Furthermore, the greater the number of variables involved in an experimental condition of the question, the more complicated and undifferentiated students' density concepts were. Students employed more improper variables such as particle size, intermolecular distance, surface tension, polarity of the solvent, etc. in explaining counter-intuitive observations. The implications for school science instruction were discussed.

감온액정을 추적입자로 사용한 PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry)법이 온도장을 정량적으로 가시화하기 위하여 사용되었다. 이 방법은 전체 유동장과 온도장을 동시에 계측할 수 있는 방법이지만, 온도장의 온도는 온도에 따라 변화되는 액정의 색을 정량적 온도 값으로 변환시켜야한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 감온액정에 의한 온도장의 광학적 정보를 정량적 온도로 변환시키는 신경회로망 보정기법을 개발하여 그 타당성을 검토한 후, 수직온도구배를 가진 액체의 기포에 의한 대류유동에 적용하여 기포에 의한 온도혼합과정을 정량적으로 가시화하고자 한다.
