  • The Smoluchowski equations with a linear and a parabolic potentials in one-dimensional case are solved for the reflecting boundary condition. Analytic expressions for the long-time behaviors of the remaining probabilities are obtained. These results, together with the previous result for a step potential, show the dependence of the desorption process on the form of potential. The effect of the radiation boundary condition is also investigated for three types of potentials.

  • A reduced condition for liquid-gas phase transition from the singularity of compressibility is derived using diagrammatic approach and is examined in the hard sphere system. The condition turns out that the Percus-Yevick and the Hyper-Netted-Chain approximation never conceive the idea of phase transition, and explains that the liquid-gas transition does not exist in hard sphere system. The solid-fluid transition is considered on the viewpoint of correlation function and diagrammatic analysis.

  • The pH as a control parameter for oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) was investigated through the denitrification by Ochrobactrum anthropi SY509 under non-growing condition. The optimal pH of nitrate reductase was 7.0, and the minimal ORP level was -250 mV for the denitrification under aerobic condition. In the case of anaerobic condition, the optimal pHs of nitrate and nitrite reductase were shifted to 10.0 and 9.0, respectively, and the minimal ORP levels of nitrate and nitrite reductase were decreased to -370 mV and -340mV, respectively. In the case of alkaline pH and anaerobic condition, the denitrification efficiency of nitrate was increased up to about 2-fold over that of neutral pH and anaerobic condition. Therefore, the combined control of pH and ORP in the anaerobic condition is shown to be an important parameter in the biological denitrification process.

  • In order to understand the flow behavior of Electrorheological (ER) fluid, dynamic simulation has been intensively performed for the last decade. When the shear flow is applied, it is easy to carry out the simulation with relatively small number of particles because of the periodic boundary condition. For the squeezing flow, however, it is not easy to apply the periodic boundary condition, and the number of particles needs to be increased to simulate the ER system more realistically. For this reason, the simulation of ER fluid under squeezing flow has been mostly performed with some representative chains or with the approximation that severely restricts the flow geometry to reduce the computational load. In this study, Message Passing Interface (MPI), which is one of the most widely-used parallel processing techniques, has been employed in a dynamic simulation of ER fluid under squeezing flow. As the number of particles used in the simulation could be increased significantly, full domain between the electrodes has been covered. The numerical treatment or the approximation used to reduce the computational load has been evaluated for its validity, and was found to be quite effective. As the number of particles is increased, the fluctuation of the normal stress becomes diminished and the prediction in general was found to be qualitatively In good agreement with the experimental results.

  • With increasing the needs for micro and precision parts, micro machining technology has been studied to fabricate a small part with high density such as electronics, optics, communications, and medicine industry more than before. But there are many problems to be solved requiring a high-level technology. So this research presents the new method to fabricate a small part through applying chemical mechanical micro machining (C3M) for the Al wafer. Al(thickness I ,u m) was sputtered on the Si substrate. Al is widely used as a lightweight material. However form defect such as burr has a bad effect on products. To improve machinability of ductile material, oxide layer was formed on the surface of AI wafcr before grooving by chemical reaction with HN03(10wt%). And then workpieces were machined to compare conventional micro-machining process with newly suggested method at different machining condition such as load and feed rate. To evaluate whether or not the machinability was improved by the effect of chemical condition, such as the size, the width of grooves 'and burr generation were measured. Finally, it is confirmed that C3M is one of the feasible tools for micro machining with the aid of effect of the chemical reaction.

  • Biological samples can be fixed either by chemical method by using chemical solution or physical methods by using heat treatment. The problem in traditional heat fixation is unsatisfactory quality due to uneven heat conduction in specimen and loss of inner cell contents. Chemical fixation method also bears several intrinsic problems like the limit in specimen size, time consumption in fixative impregnation, and loss of low molecular weight cell components. These factors deteriorate the quality of fixed specimen, thus limit the magnification and contrast of tissue pictures. Microwave heat has been reported to be a good alternative to current chemical methods to overcome these problem. In this study, we tried to introduce the microwave energy method to routine fixation work in hospital. We replaced chemical fixative with saline to provide moderate reaction condition, and used frozen section to reduce time for sample preparation. Temperature was measured at each experiment. The fixation of rat kidney tissue with 2.45 GHz electromagnetic wave and saline showed similar result to the control group fixed with traditional chemical method. Human tumor tissue fixed with 2.45 GHz electromagnetic in frozen section was improved in terms of histochemistry of PAS and immunohistochemistry of tumor marker like cytokeratin. Total turnaround time was reduced from $24\sim38$ h to to $2\sim4$ h. In conclusion, the quality of samples prepared by microwave heating method was at least as good as that of traditional method. If the condition for the fixation of different specimens is standardized, this new method could be applied to routine work in hospital, and could save working time as well.

  • In this study, suspension polymerized toners were prepared by using poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA) as an organic suspending agent. Styrene and butylacrylate monomers were used simultaneously with carbon black to prepare microspherical polymerized toners with a narrow-particle size distribution. Preliminary particles without carbon black were polymerized first to optimize suspension polymerization conditions. The preliminary particles were prepared at various polymerization conditions and their characteristics were compared to each other to determine an optimized polymerization condition. The black polymerized toner prepared at the optimized polymerization condition showed reasonable particle size and shape, and good thermal and printing characteristics by showing its glass transition temperature at $53.6^{\circ}C$.

  • Photoresist is defined as substance that makes chemical changes in its solubility, colouring and hardening by light energy. In this study, photosensitive photoresists of the positive type for a printing plate were studied. PF, o-, m-, p-CF resins as a matrix resin were synthesized at an identical condition. Photoresists were prepared by mixing NDS derivatives with a matrix resin at various mixing ratios. Characteristics of photoresists were studied by yield method of residual using solubility and Optical microscope was also analyzed. Prepared photoresist using NDS derivatives shows excellent photosensitivity and solubility compared with commercial product. The mixing ratio of 1:4(by mass) of NDS derivative[III] and m-CF resin shows the highest dissoultion rate among others. In addition, photoresist was obtained at this condition resulted in the superior sensitivity and contrast.
