PPLP를 절연지로 사용하는 OF 케이블 절연지의 팽윤 특성은 전력 케이블 절연특성에 크게 영향을 줄 뿐만 아니라, 케이블 제조나 운전시에도 영향을 미치므로 매우 중요한 설계 관리 요소이다. 특히 PPLP 케이블 제조시 PPLP의 팽윤 정도에 따라 지권장력의 설정이 달라지므로 반드시 고려해야만 한다. 기존의 일반적인 Kraft지를 절연지로 사용하는 OF 케이블의 경우는 팽윤 현상이 거의 없어 지권장력 설정시 이를 고려하지 않아도 되지만, PPLP는 이를 고려하지 않고 지권을 찬다면 케이블 제조 후 절연지의 끊어짐 현상, 절연층의 butt-gap 현상 둥 Polypropylene laminated paper를 절연지로 사용하는 케이블의 경우, 팽윤 현상의 발생으로 인해 절연파괴가 일어날 수 있다. 그러나 PPLP 절연지를 사용하는 이유는 케이블의 장거리 운전시 기존 Kraft지를 사용했을 때 보다 유전손실이 더 개선될 뿐만 아니라 절연체의 두께를 저감하여 포설이 용이하기 때문이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 PPLP에서 고분자의 팽윤이 일어나는 정도에 따라 결정화도의 변화와 전기적인 성능(체적저항, AC 파괴)과의 연관성을 검토하였다.

One of the important irradiation performance characteristics of the silicide dispersion fuel element in research reactors is the diameteral increase resulting from fuel swelling. This paper, will attempt to develop a physical model for the fuel swelling, DFSWELL, by analyzing the basic irradiation behaviours and some experimental evidences. From the experimental evidences, it was shown that the volume changes in irradiated U$_3$Si-Al were strongly dependent on temperature and fission rate. The quantitative-amount of swelling for silicide fuel is estimated by considering temperature, fission rate, solid fission product build-up and gas bubble behavior. The swelling for the silicide fuel is comprised of three major components : i ) a volume change due to the formation of an interfacial layer between the fuel particle and matrix. ii ) a volume change due to the accumulation of gas bubble nucleation iii ) a volume change due to the accumulation of solid fission products The DFSWELL model which takes into account the above three major physical components predicts well the absolute magnitude of silicide fuel swelling in accordance with the power histories in comparison with the experimental data.

In an agitated bead reaction system, the enzymatic saccharification of uncooked starch was substantially enhanced. The enhancement mechanism was investigated front the view of the structural aspect of starch. The mechanical impact caused by the movement of the attrition-milling media resulted neither the destruction of microcrystalline structure nor the fragmentation of starch granule. instead, the most distinct phenomenon was the swelling of starch granule up to about 2.5 times, and the swelling mechanism was not similar with that caused by cooking. However, in the case of the enzyme addition in the attrition coupled reaction system, the swollen starch was easily fragmented into the large number of small particles by the synergistic action of the enzyme and milling-media. The exposed surface area of the fragmented particles plays the major role in enhancing the saccharification. The saccharification rate was quite different depending on the source of starch, the reason was discussed in terms of the granular structure of uncooked starches.

기존의 얇고 가벼운 기능성 투습방수 film은 각종 등산복이나 육해공군전투복, 경찰복, 소방복 등에 폭넓게 이용되고 있다. 그러나 현재의 이런 제품들은 뛰어난 투습방수성을 나타내지만 눈, 비, 이슬 등과 같은 수분과 만날 경우 필름 고분자 구조의 Swelling으로 표면의 불규칙한 요철현상이 생기며, 이는 제품의 불량으로 문제시 되고 있다. Swelling이 생기지 않는 친수성 Urethane film이 스키복으로 많이 상용되고 있기는 하지만 두께가 두껍고 무거워서 움직임이 불편한 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점들을 보완하여 얇고 가벼운 기능성 비팽윤 투습 방수 필름을 제조하였다. 제조된 비팽윤 투습 방수 필름제품은 기존의 투습 방수 필름과도 다른 독특한 Bead concrete 구조를 형성하고 있으며, 미세입자들이 서로 접합하여 우수한 투습성을 발현하며, 기저층의 모노리스 멤브레인(Monolithic film)의 적층구조로서 형성되어 있어 강도 및 투습도 등의 성능이 제어되고, 수분 흡수에 따른 팽윤현상이 발생하지 않는다.

This study aimed to evaluate the swelling behavior characteristics of KJ-II buffer blocks by performing numerical analysis of swelling pressure measurement experiments using the nonlinear elasticity model of COMSOL Multiphysics. The analysis was conducted under boundary conditions that included isotropic constraints and water injection pressure, mirroring the experimental settings. Validation of the numerical model was achieved by comparing its outputs with experimental results. The validated model was then used to simulate swelling deformations under unconfined conditions and to analyze swelling pressure as influenced by dry density and the geometric shape of the buffer material. The results accurately represented the swelling deformation observed during the saturation process and demonstrated that swelling pressure increases with higher dry density. Moreover, simulations concerning the geometric shape of the buffer material indicated a markedly faster rate of pressure increase in U-shaped samples compared to cylindrical ones. Analysis suggested that stress manifested preemptively near the internal edges of U-shaped samples during saturation. To enhance the simulation's fidelity to actual buffer material behavior, further refinement of the analysis model using a nonlinear elasticity model is recommended.

To elucidate the behaviors of alkali swelllng of woods. the dimensional change in cross section of cell elements of four major Korean woods during alkali swelling were examined by an optical microscory, an imaging analysis method and an X-ray diffrartion During alkali swelling, tracheid diameter of Larix kaempferi wood showed greater swelling property than that of Pinus koraiensis wood, and the cell wall swelled highly over 10% sodium hydroxide solution treatment. The radial diameter of vessel elements in earlywood shrunk, but it swelled slightly in tangential direction. When treated with 5% NaOH, the wall thickness of wood fiber increased about three times over the original one. The thickness of cell wall in all elements and the diameter of wood fiber and tracheid showed almost isotropic shrinkage. The diameter of cell elements during the mercerization process decreased, but cell wall thickness Increased. Crystal transformation of cellulose in wood was not occurred by alkali treatments. but relative crystallinity and crystallite width of the woods increased slightly. Consequently, it was demonstrated that the swelling properties of woods were dependant on wood species, cell elements and alkali concentration.

Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) membranes crosslinked with poly(acrylic acid-co-maleic anhydride) (PAM) as a polymeric crosslinking agent were prepared to investigate the pervaporation performance for the dehydration separation of aqueous ethanol solution. The characteristics of the resulting membranes crosslinked(x) were analysed by FT-IR and water swelling test. The water swelling decreased with increasing crosslinking agent content. The crosslinked PVA membranes with PAM showed lower water swelling than those of PVA membrane crosslinked with glutaraldehyde and modified PVA membrane. The swelling of water molecules in the crosslinked PVA membranes is more restricted by both chemical crosslinking between PVA and polymeric crosslinking agent chains and physical crosslinking by the entanglement between the PVA and polymeric crosslinking agent chains. For the pervaporation of aqueous ethanol solution through the crosslinked membrane, as the contents of crosslinking agent increased, the separation factor increased while the permeation flux decreased. The separation factor slightly decreased and permeation flux increased with increasing feed water content. As a result it could be considered that PVA-PAM membranes suppressed the plasticization effect even in the range of high water concentration in fled.

Acetylated rice starches were prepared by reaction of rice starch with acetic anhydride, and their physicochemical properties as a function of degree of substitution (DS) were evaluated. The percentage of acetyl group and DS were $0{\sim}2.71%\;and\;0{\sim}0.104$, respectively. DS increased with increase in acetic anhydride content. DS increased swelling power and solubility of rice starch. Light transmittance (%) values of acetylated rice starches were much higher than that of native rice starch and increased with increase in DS. Rapid Visco Analyzer initial pasting temperature of acetylated rice starches decreased with increase in DS, while peak viscosity and breakdown values increased. Starch gets showed a significant decrease in syneresis (%) with the increase in DS.

Microporous polypropylene (PP) membranes have the high chemical and corrosion resistance, the good mechanical properties and the thermal stability under high temperatures, but its application is restricted within narrow limits due to hydrophobicity of membranes. In order to impart permanent hydrophilicity to the PP microfiltration membrane, the radiation-induced graft of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and acrylic acid (AAc) containing hydrophilic functional group onto the membrane has been studied. The effect of graft conditions such as reaction time, total radiation dose, reaction temperatures, acid compositions on graft yield was investigated. Modified PP membranes were shown to cause an increase in the gas flux. Oil emulsion permeation flux of both original PP membrane and modified PP membrane was examined.
