직경 5 mm 이하의 미세플라스틱은 인류 활동에 의해 생산되어 하수처리장 처리수, 우수토구, 도로 분진 등 다양한 경로를 통해 하천에 유입되고 있다. 하천에 유입된 미세플라스틱은 하천흐름을 따라 하류로 이동하여 해양환경에까지 이른다. 미세플라스틱은 수체를 따라 이동할 뿐 아니라 수생생물에 의해 섭식되기도 하여 인체 위해성이 우려되는 상황이다. 특히 서울과 경기도의 주요 상수원인 팔당호는 북한강, 남한강, 경안천이 유입되어 형성되기 때문에 미세플라스틱의 유입에 따른 이송-분산 거동 평가가 중요한 영역이다. 본 연구에서는 준3차원 입자추적기법을 이용한 미세플라스틱 거동해석 모형, MPT-Q3D를 개발하였으며 팔당호 내 미세플라스틱의 거동 특성을 분석하였다. MPT-Q3D 모형은 2차원 흐름해석모형과 연계한 입자의 준3차원 거동해석을 위해 step-by-step computation method를 적용하였으며, 전단류에 의한 입자의 수평거동과 난류확산에 및 침강속도에 의한 연직거동 두 단계 계산과정에 따라 입자의 거동을 해석했다. 전단류는 2차원 흐름해석결과로부터 유속의 연직분포식을 적용하여 생성하였으며, 생성된 전단류에 의해 각 연직층 별 유속이 계산되고 𝚫t 이후 입자의 종, 횡 방향 이동거리를 계산한다. 또한 난류확산에 의한 무작위적 거동 계산을 위해 Gaussian 분포를 따른 난수 생성을 통해 무작위적 거동을 계산했다. 각 연직층에 위치한 미세플라스틱 입자의 종, 횡 방향 거동을 계산한 후 입자의 연직거동을 계산한다. 입자의 연직 위치는 난류확산과 침강속도에 따라 계산되며 침강속도는 미세플라스틱의 밀도 및 직경에 따라 결정된다. 현장 샘플링 결과에 따라 팔당호로 유입되는 미세플라스틱은 폴리스틸렌(PS), 폴리에틸렌(PE), 폴리에스테르(Polyester)가 있으므로, 세 종류의 미세플라스틱을 동시에 주입하여 팔당호 내 거동을 분석했다. 남한강, 북한강, 경안천의 유량 차이로 인해 팔당호로 유입되는 미세플라스틱은 대체로 남한강과 북한강의 흐름특성에 영향을 받았다. 경안천의 경우 유량이 낮아 팔당호로 유입되지 못하고 좌안을 따라 하류로 이동됐다. 남한강과 북한강에서 유입된 미세플라스틱은 주로 팔당호 내 소내섬을 거쳐 팔당댐 쪽으로 이동했다. 또한 팔당댐 인근에서는 PP, PE, Polyester 순으로 많은 양이 유입되는 결과가 나타났다.

Microplastics are fractions of plastics less than 5 mm in size and can be divided into artificially manufactured primary microplastics and physically or chemically decomposed secondary microplastics. In this study, the emission source of microplastics made by the human activities is defined as the primary source of microplastics. And the primary sources of microplastics were summarized by using the literature and the emission potential of each source was estimated. As a result, this study showed that 63,000 to 216,000 ton/year of microplastics were discharged into the environment. Among primary sources, transport, tyre dust, and laundry were the major primary sources.

In this paper, infrared thermography measurement technique has been used to develop standard measurement technique for nondestructive testing of composite materials which is widely used in aerospace industries. To increase the defect detection rate, the related experiment used the lock-in IR-thermographiy method. Therefore it is of considerable interest in the field of non-destructive testing for fast discontinuity detection by using ultrasonic lock-in infrared thermography. The result also shows that as the investigation period of light source is lengthened according to the thickness of specimen, the possibility of detecting defects gets higher as well. However, the reason why the result values were not favorable when less than 50 mHz of light source was provided is because it was difficult to detect defects as the defect parts became a state of thermal equilibrium in general when thermal diffusivity affects the entire materials.

The dielectric effects of plastic packages on GaAs($\varepsilon$$_{r}$=13) MMIC microstrip characteristics are analyzed using the spectral domain method (SDM). As being packaged by typical FR-4 composites ($\varepsilon$$_{r}$=14.2) for PCB substrates and plastic packages, the characteristic impedance is reduced by about 6 %, but the effective dielectric constant is increased by 13 % from those of bare microstrip, respectively. The parasitic effects of the packaging materials can greatly degrade the performance of the packaged MMIC. We also calculated the optimum microstrip width, which maintains the 50 $\Omega$ matching condition after plastic packaging. These calculated results can be used to optimize the plastic packages, and extend the application ranges for low cost MMIC production.n.

This study is a prior research to manufacture a thermoplastic mask, which is a fixture used in radiation therapy, by 3D printing. It proceeded to analyze the filament material that can replace the thermoplastic. Among the commercially available filament materials, a material having similar characteristics to that of a thermoplastic mask was selected and the radiation dose was compared and analyzed. The experiment used Monte Carlo simulation. The shape in which the mask fixed the head was simulated for the ICRU sphere. The photon fluence was calculated at the skin Hp (0.07), the lens Hp (3), and the whole body Hp (10) by applying a thermoplastic plastic material and a filament material. As a result, when looking at the relative dose based on the thermoplastic plastic material, the difference was approximated within 4%. The material showing the most similar dose was PA-nylon. In selecting an appropriate filament material, it should be selected by comprehensively considering various conditions such as economical efficiency and radiation effects. It is thought that the results of this study can be used as basic data.

2008년 1월과 12월의 경기도 이천시에서의 창고화재는 재산상의 피해보다도 방재대책이 허술함과 인명피해에 대하여 사회적인 문제가 제기되었으나 건축자재, 입고 화물이외에 화재하중 등을 가중시키는 플라스틱 파렛트에 대한 거론은 없었다. 그러나 일본의 소방청 소방연구소에서는 1995년의 자동화창고의 전소화재시 화재조사를 실시한 후 방재대책으로서 플라스틱 파렛트의 화재하중 경감, 발연량 및 유해가스감축을 위한 후속대책으로 난연 파렛트에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 그 결과 수산화마그네슘 또는 적린과 수산화마그네슘을 난연제로 사용한 플라스틱 파렛트 난연화에 성공하였다. 본고에서는 시험시설 등의 연구환경의 한계로 일본의 연구사례를 조사하고 우리나라의 난연 플라스틱 파렛트 도입방안에 대해 살펴보기로 한다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate pre-service elementary teachers' awareness on the sources of microplastics. The participants were 75 male and 91 female undergraduates. A 15-item survey questionnaire was developed based on prior researches regarding microplastics emission sources and were modified through expert review and preliminary research. The survey results show that over 80% of the respondents had heard of microplastics before through news, internet, TV, etc. However, they tended not to be aware that things such as lab coats, wet tissue, dust protective mask, or paper cup were made of microplastics-causing substances. For the questions on the expected situation of microplastics contamination, the frequency of their choices were relatively low in 'Tires of cars running are worn out' and 'The gum stuck to the floor becomes smaller.' These results show that many of them were not aware that synthetic fiber or synthetic rubber was one of the microplastics emission sources. Gender differences were found in the attitudes toward microplastics problems. Female students are more interested in the issues and are more willing to participate in the solution, and recognize the need for more education on microplastics. The implications and future directions for science education were discussed.

This study was conducted to investigate a feasibility of manufacturing wood fiber thermoplastic composites and to evaluate their mechanical properties. Wood fiber as a potential reinforcing filler was compounded with two thermoplastics (polypropylene and high density polyethylene) in high intensity thermokinetic plastic mixer aided with a wetting agent. It was found that wood fiber thermoplastic composites could be manufactured by injection molding process. The tensile and flexural strength of injection molded specimens were improved greatly with increasing wood fiber concentration. Tensile and flexural modulus increased proportionately with wood fiber concentration. Wood fiber provided reinforcement with thermoplastics in terms of strength and modulus. However, the percent elongation at break and energy to break were reduced with increasing wood fiber loadings. Impact strength also showed similar trend.
