In this paper, the effects of ethanol blended gasoline on emissions and their catalytic conversion efficiency characteristics were investigated in a multiple-point EFI gasoline engine, The results show that with the increase of ethanol concentration in the blended fuels, THC emissions were drastically reduced by up to thirty percent, And brake specific fuel consumption was increased, but brake specific energy consumption could be improved. However, unburned ethanol and acetaldehyde emissions increased. Pt/Rh based three-way catalysts were effective to reduce acetaldehyde emissions, but had low catalytic conversion efficiency for unburned ethanol. The effect of ethanol on CO and NOx emissions and their catalytic conversion efficiency had close relation to the engine's speed, load and air/fuel ratio. Furthermore fuels blended with thirty percent ethanol by volume could dramatically reduced THC CO and NOx emissions at idle speed.

In this study, an experiment was performed to analyze the influence of water-cement ratio on the fundamental characteristics of antiwashout underwater concrete using blended sand (sea sand:river sand = 1:1). The water-cement ratio (45%, 50%, 55%, 60%), andtiwashout underwater agent contents (0.82%, 1.00%, 1.14% of water contents per unit volume of concrete), and superplasticizer contents (1.5%, 2.0%, 2.5% of cement contents per unit volume of concrete) were chosen as the experimental parameters. The experimental results show that the underwater segregation resistance, unit weight of hardening concrete and compressive strength were increased as the water-cement ratio decreased and as the antiwashout underwater agent contents increased. On the other hand, the flowability(slump flow) was increased to the 55% of the increase of water-cement ratio, however, it was decreased at the ratio of 60%. From this study, the antiwashout underwater concrete can potentially be used as a materials underwater work of ocean if the water-cement ratio and chemical admixture contents for the suitable balance between cost and performance are properly selected.

In this paper, the performance of alkali-activated slag cement (AASC) is assessed in terms of compressive strength and drying shrinkage, using three different types of silica sand and river sand. The sand type has an important influence on the properties of AASC mortar. Three silica sands (SS1, SS2 and SS3) and river sand (RS) were considered. Three series of blended sands have been tested. A first series (S1) with RS and SS1, a second series (S2) with RS and SS2 and third series (S3) with RS and SS3 with a different blended ratios. The result shows a very significant influence of the blended sand on the AASC mortar properties. The compressive strength and drying shrinkage related with the particle sizes and blended ratios of sands are investigated considering blended sand properties like fineness modulus (FM) and relative specific surface. The type and blended ratio of sand seems to have very significant and important consequences for the mix design of the AASC mortar.

Polypropylene fibers, while having many advantages such as light weight, sweat fast drying, water-repellent, drainage, thermal insulation, anti-static property has a drawback in dyeing. In recent years, the development of dyeable polypropylene fibers has expanded its value in the textile market. The purpose of this study is to fabricate composite spun yarns using polypropylene, acrylic, rayon and wool and to analyze tensile properties, uniformity characteristics, bending properties, hairiness, and surface shape according to the degree of fineness and blended ratio. The specimens consisted of 100% polypropylene spun yarn pp30, pp40 and ppa(pp/acrylic), ppr(pp/rayon), ppw(pp/wool), 5 altogether sed in this study. The results of the study are as follows. The breaking strength of polypropylene spun yarn blended with rayon and acrylic was higher than that of 100% polypropylene spun yarn. The polypropylene spun yarn is higher the fineness been shown to decrease the breaking strength and elongation. The bending properties of polypropylene spun yarns were in the order of ppa>ppr>pp40>pp30>ppw. The unevenness of ppw, ppr, and ppa was higher than pp40 and pp30. With the exception of ppw with crimp properties, pp30 and pp40 were found to have a hairiness index greater than ppr, ppa. In the microscopic photographs of polypropylene spun yarn, pp30, which had the highest hairiness index, was found to have a thick yarn and a large number of hairs, and ppw had hairs of 3 mm or more protruding elongated outwardly.

용액 공정을 이용한 Resistive random access memory (ReRAM)은 간단한 공정 과정, 대면적화, 저렴한 가격 등의 장점으로 인해 큰 관심을 받고 있으며, HfOx, TiOx, AlOx 등의 산화물이 ReRAM 절연 막으로 주로 연구되고 있다. 더 나아가 최근에는 organic 물질을 메모리 소자로 사용한 연구가 보고되고 있다. 이는 경제적이며, wearable 또는 flexible system에 적용이 용이하다. 그럼에도 불구하고, organic 물질을 갖는 메모리 소자는 기존의 산화물 소자에 비해 열에 취약하며 전기적인 특성과 신뢰성이 우수하지 못하다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이를 위한 방안으로 본 연구에서는 AlOx - polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) blended thin film ReRAM을 제안하였다. 이는 organic물질의 전기적 특성을 개선시킬 뿐 아니라, inorganic 물질을 wearable 소자에 적용했을 때 발생하는 crack과 같은 기계적 물리적 결함을 해결할 수 있는 새로운 방법이다. 먼저, P-type Si 위에 습식산화를 통하여 SiO2 300 nm 성장시킨 기판을 사용하여 electron beam evaporation으로 10 nm의 Ti, 100 nm의 Pt 층을 차례로 증착하였다. 그리고 PMMA 용액과 AlOx 용액을 초음파를 이용하여 혼합한 뒤, 이 용액을 Pt 하부 전극 상에서 spin coating방법으로 1000 rpm 10초, 5000 rpm 30초의 조건으로 증착하였다. Solvent 및 불순물 제거를 위하여 150, 180, $210^{\circ}C$의 온도로 30 분 동안 열처리를 진행하였고, shadow mask를 이용하여 상부 전극인 Ti를 sputtering 방식으로 100 nm 증착하였다. 150, 180, $210^{\circ}C$로 각각 열처리한 AlOx - PMMA blended ReRAM의 전기적 특성은 HP 4156B semiconductor parameter analyzer를 이용하여 측정하였다. 측정 결과 제작된 소자 전부에서 2 V이하의 낮은 동작전압, 안정된 DC endurance (>150cycles), 102 이상의 높은 on/off ratio를 확인하였고, 그 중 $180^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 ReRAM은 더 높은 on/off ratio를 갖는 것을 확인하였다. 결론적으로 baking 온도를 최적화하였으며 AlOx - PMMA blended film ReRAM의 우수한 메모리 특성을 확인하였다. AlOx-PMMA blended film ReRAM은 organic과 inorganic의 장점을 갖는 wearable 및 system용 비휘발성 메모리소자에 적용이 가능한 경제적인 기술로 판단된다.

In this study, we suggested effective countermeasure of biodiesel oxidation problems by investigating the oxidation degradation of biodiesels derived from variable resources and the level of oxidation stability of current distributing biodiesel blended fuels (2%) in Korea, and oxidation stability change according to storage time (for 3 month) and biodiesel blending ratio (2, 5, 7, 10%). By the composition analysis results of biodiesel from various resources which are possible to distribute in Korea, the biodiesel from animal fat has poor oxidation stability and cold performance, while the biodiesel from coconut and palm kernel which are considered as future potential raw material showed good oxidation stability and cold performance. The oxidation stability level of current distributing biodiesel blended fuels in Korea was excellent with showing over 30 hours (average 68 hours) stability, but the oxidation stability of the blended fuel with animal fat biodiesel having poor oxidation property (1.22 hours) was rapidly decreased to below 32 hours by mixing only 2%. Therefore, we have to pay attention to quality control of oxidation property, because the oxidation stability problem can be caused by increasing biodiesel blending ratio and diversifying raw materials those have worse property.

In the present study, an attempt was made to investigate the oxidative stability of the various sesasme blended oils. Sesame blended oils were perpared by mixing sesame oil with various vegetalbe oils (soybean oil, corn oil, ricebran oil, rapeseed oil, cottonseed oil, and perilla oil) in a ratio of 3:7 (w/w). Fatty acid composition and some of physico-chemical characteristics of the sesame blended oils and vegetable oils including sesame oil were determined before the oxidation experiments. The fatty acid compositions and the physico-chemical characteristics of the vegetable oils changed by blending the oils with sesame oil and the extent of change varied with the type of oil. Particularly, the iodine value of the vegetable oils decreased significantly by sesame oil blending. The sesame blended oils and the vegetable oils including sesame oil were oxidized at $45^{\circ}C$ for 25 days in a dark place, and at $35^{\circ}C$ for 12 days under the irradiation of incandescent electric lamp (40 W). During the oxidation, some physico-chemical characteristics of the oils were determined to evaluate the oxidative stability. Based on the changes of peroxide values, the oxidative stability of the vegetable oils was improved by sesame oil blending.
