We investigated the possibility of using graphene for control of hydrogen isotopes by exploring adsorption, reflection, and penetration of hydrogen isotopes on graphene using molecular dynamics. Reflection is the dominant interaction when hydrogen isotopes have low incident energy. Adsorption rates increase with increasing incident energy until 5 eV is reached. After 5 eV, adsorption rates decrease as incident energy increases. At incident energies greater than 5 eV, adsorption rates increase with the number of graphene layers. At low incident energies (<1 eV), no isotopic effects on interactions are observed since the predominant interaction is derived from the force of π electrons. Between 1 eV and 50 eV, heavier isotopes exhibit higher adsorption rates and lower reflection rates than lighter isotopes, due to the greater momentum of heavier isotopes. Adsorption rates are consistently higher when the incident angle of the impacting atoms is smaller between 0.5 eV and 5 eV. At higher energies (>5 eV), larger incident angles lead to higher reflection and lower penetration rates. At high incident energies (>5 eV), crumpled graphene has higher adsorption and lower penetration rates than wrinkled or unwrinkled graphene. The results obtained in this research study will be used to develop novel nanomaterials that can be employed for tritium control.

외부로부터 시멘트 복합체 내부로 침투되는 염소이온은 주로 농도차로 인한 확산을 통해 이동한다. 확산하는 염소이온 중 일부는 일반적으로 내부 수화물과의 반응을 통해 고정되는데, 최근의 몇몇 연구는 음이온 교환 수지(AER) 분말이 혼입된 시멘트 복합체의 염소이온 침투 저항성 및 고정능력에 관한 연구결과를 보여주었다. 본 연구에서는 AER이 분쇄되는 과정에서 염소이온 흡착능력이 상실하는지를 확인하고자 한다. AER 분말의 염소이온 흡착능력은 증류수와 포화수산화칼슘 수용액 조건에서 분석되었고, AER 비드의 염소 이온 흡착능력에 관한 기존의 연구결과와 비교되었다. 추가로, AER 분말이 포틀랜드 시멘트의 일부 치환된 모르타르의 압축강도 측정, 염소이온 확산계수 도출(NT Build 492 시험방법 이용), 염소이온 침투 프로파일링(전자현미분석 이용)을 수행하였다. 본 연구의 실험 결과는 분쇄과정으로 인한 AER 분말의 염소이온 흡착능력 저하가 거의 없음을 보여 주었다. 그리고 AER 분말은 모르타르 내에서도 염소이온을 빠르게 흡착할 수 있었고, 시멘트 수화물보다 우수한 염소이온 흡착성능을 보여주었다.

콘크리트 내 염소이온은 콘크리트 내부로 침투하여 철근부식을 일으키는 주요 요인이다. 그런데 내재된 염소이온의 일부는 시멘트의 수화물과 반응하여 물리 또는 화학적 흡착을 유발하여 침투속도는 느려진다. 이때 시멘트의 수화물이 염소이온의 고정화에 영향을 미치는 요인이므로, 본 논문은 독립적인 시멘트 수화물에서 염소의 흡착에 대하여 초점을 두어 연구하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 시멘트 수화물이 염소이온을 흡착하는 시간의존적 거동을 고찰하여 염소이온 고정화의 메커니즘을 구명하는 것이다. 시멘트 수화물 중 AFt 상과 CH 상은 염소이온을 흡착하지 못하였으나 C-S-H 상과 AFm 상은 염소 흡착능력을 갖고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, AFm 상은 40일 동안 느린 속도로 화학적 흡착 거동을 보인 반면, C-S-H 상은 순간적 물리흡착, 물리화학적 흡착, 그리고 화학적 흡착의 3단계로 구분되어 순차적인 흡착거동을 보였다. 반응 실험결과를 토대로, C-S-H 상과 AFm 상의 흡착 거동 해석기법이 제안되었다. 본 연구는 염소이온의 도입원에 따른 흡착 메커니즘을 이해를 토대로, 염소이온의 도입원에 따른 염소이온의 침투속도를 산정하는데 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Factors influencing penetration kinetics of PVAm solution into paper were investigated with ultrasonic Penetration Evenness Analyzer (PEA). Paper structure was varied by changing basis weight, freeness of pulp, calendering, number of plies and filler addition and hydrophobicity of paper was varied by adding AKD. Important factors affecting liquid penetration are found to be pore structure and hydrophobicity of paper. Pore structure of paper can be designed by controlling refining degree and filler addition. Hydrophobicity of paper can be controlled by internal sizing.

Many commercial air purifiers currently have deployed granular activated carbon (GAC) filters for removing volatile organic compounds in the indoor air. GACs are generally used to remove gaseous contaminants in the air through adsorption by the inner surfaces of pores. In addition, airborne particles can be also filtered by the surface adsorption of the GACs, which can improve the life-time of the particulate filters. In this study, the filtration efficiency of GACs to ultrafine particles through surface adsorption was investigated at different volume flow rates by deploying a continuous particle filtration system. The polydisperse sodium chloride (NaCl) particles were generated by a set of an atomizer and a diffusion dryer, and then mixed with particle-free air at different volume flow rates. The penetration of ultrafine particles and pressure drop for each experimental condition were measured to figure out the effect of the volume flow rate on the surface adsoprtion of the GACs to particles, ~ 2 mm. The particle filtration efficiency of the GACs decreased as the volume flow rate increased from 4 to 14 lpm. However, the 5 times thicker GAC filter layer decreased the penetration of ultraparticles than a preious study. The filtration efficiency of the single granule was also higher than the previous result in the literature with smaller granule filter materials.

The new system for identification of organic vapours and analysis method of mechanism between organic vapours and sensitive materials were attempted using the resonant resistance and resonant frequency of Quartz Crystal Analyzer (Q. C. A.). The resonant resistance shift means rheological changes in sensitive LB films occurred by the adsorption of organic vapours, while the resonant frequency shift represent the mass of organic vapour loaded in or on the sensitive LB films. It is thought that we can obtain more accurate response mechanism of organic vapour using the resonant frequency and resonant resistance diagram. The polymeric sensitive material were quantitively depositied using the LB method. In the experimental results, the adsorption behavior of organic vapour response can be decided by two type ; surface adsorption and penetration into sensitive material. Organic vapours had different positions in the Frequency-Resistance (F-R) diagram as to the kinds and concentrations of organic vapours. Thus F-R diagram can be applied to the development of one channel gas sensing system using the Quartz Crystal Analyzer.

Starch is widely used as an adhesive material in the paper and corrugated board industry. The adhesion problem of corrugated board is categorized by two main parts called zipper board and white glue line. The object of this research is to investigate the factors affecting the adhesion problem by the gelatinization of various starch solutions and dynamic penetration properties measurements of various commercial base paper and handsheets. Flow property of starch solution is affected by sodium hydroxide addition and reaction level. Absorption property of commercial base papers and handsheets is affected by sizing and stock composition. Optimum bonding between top/bottom liners and corrugated medium is accomplished by acceptable flow viscosity of mixed starch solution and proper adsorption characteristic of base paper.

We deposited stearic acid LB films by using Langmuir-Blodgett (LB)method and investigated anisotropy electrical conduction characteristics by I-V measurement for horizontal direction and vertical direction. Also, we measured gad response between deposited LB films and organic gas for various temperature(0~8$0^{\circ}C$) by 9MHz At-cut quartz crystal microbalance. The LB films have electrical conduction characteristics such as semiconducting and insulating properties. The is, the conductivity of LB films for the horizontal and vertical direction is about 10\ulcornerS/cm and 10\ulcorners/cm, respectively. the frequency shift of stearic acid LB films for the organic gases depended on the mass change by the surface adsorption and the inner penetration to the sensing films. The resonant frequency shift of the quartz crystal microbalance for temperature properties of LB films is thought to the effect of the rearrangement or the damage pf LB films above the melting point and the mobility increasement of the organic gas by the temperature rising.

This study used two types of rheology modifiers including an alkali-swellable emulsion (ASE) and an surface-adhesion emulsion (SAE) to elucidate their effects on high shear viscosity and dynamic penetration behavior among the flow properties of high solids coating. Since rheology under high shear and dynamic penetration behavior significantly affect the quality of coated paper in case of high solids coating, it is very important to examine the variations in rheology of high solids coating color by rheology modifier. It was found that the high solids coating color prepared with the SAE type showed superior dynamic penetration behavior and high shear viscosity than that with the ASE type rheology modifier.

Hydrogen permeation through dense palladium-based membranes has attracted the attention of many scientists largely due to their unmatched potential as hydrogen-selective membranes for membrane reactor applications. Although it is well known that the permeation mechanism of hydrogen through Pd involves various processes such as dissociative adsorption, transitions to and from the bulk Pd, diffusion within Pd, and recombinative desorption, it is still unclear which process mainly limits hydrogen permeation at a given temperature and hydrogen partial pressure. In this study, we report an all-electron density-functional theory study of hydrogen permeation through Pd membrane (using VASP code). Especially, we focus on the variation of the energy barrier of the penetration process from the surface to the bulk with hydrogen coverage, which means the large reduction of the fracture stress in the brittle crack propagation considering Griffith's criterion. It is also found that the penetration energy barrier from the surface to the bulk largely decreases so that it almost vanishes at the coverage 1.25, which means that the penetration process cannot be the rate determining process.
