Pt-Fe/carbon black nanocatalysts were prepared by spontaneous reduction reaction of Platinum(II) acetylacetonate and Iron(II) acetylacetonate in a nucleophilic solvent and they were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analyzer (EDS), thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) surface area analysis and anion exchange membrane (AEM) water electrolysis test station. The distribution of the Pt and Fe nanoparticles on carbon black was observed by TEM, and the loading weight of Pt-Fe nanocatalysts on the carbon black was measured by TGA. Elemental ratio of Fe:Pt was estimated by EDS and it was found that elemental ratio of Pt and Fe was changed in the range of 1:0 to 0:1, and the loading weight of Pt-Fe nanoparticles on the carbon black was 5.95-6.78 wt%. Specific surface area was greatly reduced because Pt-Fe nanocatalysts blocked the pores. I-V characteristics were estimated.

분리막의 종류 및 환원전극의 특성에 따른 전기발생량 및 미생물 군집을 비교하기 위하여, 분리막 및 환원전극의 특성이 다른 4개의 단위전지로 구성되어 있는 공기환원전극 미생물연료전지(4 air-cathode microbial fuel cell)를 회분식 운전하였다: A) PEM(Proton Exchange Membrane)-30% Wet proofing Carbon Cloth(WC), B) AEM(Anion Exchange Membrane-WC, C) CEM(Cation Exchange Membrane)-WC, D) PEM-No Wet proofing Carbon Cloth(NC). 분리막의 종류에 상관없이 최대전력밀도는 PEM-WC(510.9 $mW/m^2$), PEM-WC(522.1 $mW/m^2$), PEM-WC(504.8 $mW/m^2$)로 유사하였으나, 환원전극이 달랐던 PEM-NC는 218.3 $mW/m^2$으로 낮게 나왔다. 내부저항은 분리막의 종류에 상관없이 20.8-28.2 ${\Omega}$으로 유사하게 나타났다. PCR-DGGE, PCA, 종다양성 분석 결과, 부유미생물 군집은 시간이 경과함에 따라 다르게 나타났으며 기존 MFC 연구에서 보고되었던 uncultured bacteria가 관찰되었다. 한편, 부착미생물 군집은 분리막의 종류에 따라 큰 변화를 나타내지 않았지만, 환원전극의 특성에 따라 군집의 변화가 관찰되었다. 따라서, 기존의 이온교환막을 분리막으로 사용하는 공기환원전극 MFC에서는 환원전극의 선택도 중요한 것으로 나타났다.

Purpose - Foreign Exchange Rates (FER) have been one of the most significant factors for both Korean exporters and the economy of Korea. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether exporters with a high level of Exchange Rate Elasticity of Sales (ERES) make the use of earnings management for Income Smoothing (IS). Design/methodology - Income smoothing was obtained using the methodology suggested by Leuz, Nanda and Wysocki (2003). Accruals-based Earnings Management (AEM) was estimated using Discretionary Accruals (DA) calculated by the operant Jones Model developed by Dechow, Sloan and Sweeney (1995). Real Earnings Management (REM) was obtained using the methodologies suggested by Roychowdhury (2006) and Cohen and Zarowin (2010). Data were 2,402 firm years of public listed companies on the KRX, which were not in the financial industry and had a settlement of accounts in December for the period from 2013 to 2017. Findings - Results of the evaluation are as follows. First, companies with higher levels of ERES have relatively lower levels of smoothing of reported income. This might be because a fluctuation in sales caused by an exchange rate fluctuation has a direct impact on the volatility of the reported income. Second, companies with high levels of both ERES and IS have a positive correlation with both AEM and REM. This might be because companies with high levels of IS engage in earnings management to smooth reported income. Specifically, it is possible to assume that for smoothing the reported income, not only AEM but also REM is practiced. Third, companies with high levels of ERES but low levels of IS have a negative correlation with both AEM and REM. This could be interpreted as companies exhibiting low levels of IS due to higher levels of ERES tend to control IS. In addition, such results were supported by firms relying highly on exporting, and are consequently sensitive to exchange rate fluctuation. Therefore, it may conclude that companies with high levels of ERES make the use of earnings management as a means of IS. Originality/value - This study can find its significance from the fact that it is the first study, empirically verifying that companies of Korea, where exportation is a large part, use both AEM and REM as a means for smoothing reported income upon facing exchange rate fluctuations. In addition, it is highly expected that the results of this study could be useful for participants of financial markets when making IS-related decisions.

Three t-amines, 4-(dimethylamino)benzoic acid (ABA), 4-(dimethylamino)benzaldehyde (MBA), 4-(dimethylamino)benzophenone (MBP), were investigated as new visible light photoinitiators for a dental resin composite of UDMA in order to improve photopolymerization effect. Three t-amines mixed with three photosensiizers, CQ, PD and DA, respectively. And the photopolymerization effect of photoinitiators were compared with that of 4-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (AEM), the most widely used photoinitiator. The photopolymerization efficiency of UDMA containing the photoinitiator increased with irradiation time. The increase was in the order: MBP

사일로와 같은 대단면 원통형 구조물을 전도시키기 위해서는 구조적 특성 및 사전 취약화를 위한 개구부의 조건을 고려하여 설계해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 원통형 구조물을 전도시키기 위해 구조적으로 동일한 원통형 구조물을 상용해석 프로그램인 3D AEM으로 모델링하여, 개구부의 조건으로는 개구부의 높이, 개구부의 각도, 개구부의 형태를 변수로 설정하여 이들 변수에 따른 원통형 구조물의 전도 붕괴 거동을 모사하고 분석하였다.

Microstructural development at the ZrO2/NiTi bonding interface and reaction products were examined and identified with SEM and AEM. Ti-oxide, Ti2Ni and Ni2Ti layer were observed whose thickness depends on bonding temperature typically. The development of Ti-oxide layer is related with oxygen ion in ZrO2 and liquid phase Ti2Ni. It is considered that compositional deviation from homogeneity and residual stress caused by thermal expansion mismatch are closely related with the formation of the Ti2Ni phase.

Image processing has been applied to steel bridge defect recognition since 1990s. Compare to human visual inspection, image processing provides a more objective and accurate way of assessment. Since shade and shadow may sometimes occur when taking bridge coating images, non-uniform illumination problems should be considered. By means of color image processing, this paper aims to mitigate the illumination effect for bridge coating assessment. Furthermore, the adaptable ellipse method (AEM) is proposed to recognize mild rust colors. Finally, AEM will be compared to the K-Means algorithm, a popular recognition method, to show its advantage.

In this study, the influence of different IEMs (ion exchange membranes) to performance of the hypochlorite electrolysis unit with Cl₂ recovery stream was investigated. More specifically, Nafion 117-a representative cation exchange membrane (CEM)-and aminated polypheylene oxide (APPO)-an anion exchange membrane (AEM)-were installed in the hypochlorite electrolysis unit, and the performance and the energy efficiency of the units were evaluated and compared. Regardless of whether CEM (Nafion 117) or AEM (APPO) was installed, the rate of hypochlorite generation was increased (by up to 24.3% and 22.2% for Nafion 117 and APPO, respectively) compared with the unit without an IEM. On the other hand, the power efficiency and the optimum operation condition of hypochlorite production units seem to depend on the conductivity and stability of the installed IEM. As the result, between Nafion 117 and APPO, higher performance and efficiency were achieved with Nafion 117, due to excellent conductivity and stability of the membrane.
