  • 목적: 지하에 위치한 방사선치료 관련시설 내의 실내공기 질은 근무자뿐만 아니라 장기간 치료받는 환자들의 건강에도 중요하다. 저자들은 근무자들의 빌딩증후군 증상유무의 확인과 함께 실내공기 질과 관련된 여러 인자들을 측정, 분석하여 그 원인을 찾고 해결책을 제시하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 근무자들을 대상으로 자각증상 및 근무환경 인식과 관련된 설문조사를 하였고, 예비조사를 바탕으로 실내공기 질과 관련된 항목들(온 습도, 미세먼지, 이산화탄소, 일산화탄소, 포름알데히드, 총휘발성유기화합물, 라돈)에 대해 근무자들이 주로 머무르는 지역들을 중심으로 일정기간 측정하였다. 아울러 환기(공조) 시스템의 효율 및 주변 환경에 대한 평가를 동시에 진행하였으며, 실외공기와의 비교평가를 위해 1층(실외)에서도 같은 항목들을 측정하였고, 측정 자료들은 국내외 환경관련 기관들의 권고 수치를 기준으로 각각 평가하였다. 결과: 설문조사에서 근무자들은 악취, 습도, 먼지 등에 대해 불만족을 보였으며, 근골격계 증상, 신경계 증상, 점막 자극 증상 등을 주로 호소하였다. 대부분의 실내공기 질 관련 항목들은 기준치를 넘지 않았으나 총휘발성유기화합물 수치가 기존 미국 사무실 측정 수치에 비해 $3{\sim}4$배 높게 나왔다. 환기 횟수나 환기량에서는 문제가 없었으나 실외공기 유입구와 실내공기 배출구의 위치 문제로 인해 오염된 공기의 유입 가능성이 있었다. 총휘발성유기화합물을 배출할 수 있는 현상액과 같은 화학물질의 관리에 주의가 필요했으며, 오염된 공기의 재유입 문제를 해결하기 위해 환기 시스템의 위치조정이 시급한 상황이었다. 결론: 저자들은 실내공기 질에 대한 평가에서 일부 화학물질 및 부적절한 환기 시스템으로 인해 근무자들이 주관적인 증상을 호소할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 지하 공간에서 장시간 거주하는 근무자들의 근무여건 개선과 함께 면역저하를 동반한 환자들의 건강관리를 위해 실내공기 질에 대한 평가는 반드시 필요하며, 그 자료를 바탕으로 향후 방사선종양학과의 설계나 기존 시설의 환경개선 등에 적극적으로 이용해야 하겠다.

  • During bonding procedure of composite resin, the prepared cavity can be contaminated by saliva. In this study, marginal microleakage and shear bond strength of a composite resin to primed enamel and dentin treated with artificial saliva(Taliva$^{(R)}$) were evaluated. For the marginal microleakage test, Class V cavities were prepared in the buccal surfaces of fifty molars. The samples were randomly assigned into 5 groups with 10 samples in each group. Control group was applied with a bonding system (Scotchbond$^{TM}$ Multi-Purpose plus) according to manufacture's directions without saliva contamination. Experimental groups were divided into 4 groups and contaminated with artificial saliva for 30 seconds after priming: Experimental 1 group ; artificial saliva was dried with compressed air only, Experimental 2 group ; artificial saliva was rinsed and dried. Experimental 3 group ; cavities were etched with 35% phosphoric acid for 15 seconds after rinsing and drying artificial saliva. Experimental 4 group ; cavities were etched with 35% phosphoric acid for 15 seconds and primer was reapplied after rinsing and drying artificial saliva. All the cavities were applied a bonding agent and filled with a composite resin (Z-100$^{TM}$). Specimens were immersed in 0.5% basic fuschin dye for 24 hours and embedded in transparent acrylic resin and sectioned buccolingually with diamond wheel saw. Four sections were obtained from one specimen. Degree of marginal leakage was scored under stereomicroscope and their scores were averaged from four sections. The data were analyzed by Kruscal-Wallis test and Fisher's LSD. For the shear bond strength test, the buccal or occlusal surfaces of one hundred molar teeth were ground to expose enamel(n=50) or dentin(n=50) using diamond wheel saw and its surface was smoothed with Lapping and Polishing Machine(South Bay Technology Co., U.S.A.). Samples were divided into 5 groups. Treatment of saliva-contaminated enamel and dentin surfaces was same as the marginal microleakage test and composite resin was bonded via a gelatin capsule. All specimens were stored in distilled water for 48 hours. The shear bond strengths were measured by universal testing machine (AGS-1000 4D, Shimaduzu Co., Japan) with a crosshead speed of 5 mm/minute. Failure mode of fracture sites was examined under stereomicroscope. The data were analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey's studentized range test. The results of this study were as follows : 1. Enamel marginal microleakage showed no significant difference among groups. 2. Dentinal marginal microleakages of control, experimental 2 and 4 groups were lower than those of experimental 1 and 3 groups (p<0.05). 3. The shear bond strength to enamel was the highest value in control group (20.03${\pm}$4.47MPa) and the lowest value in experimental 1 group (13.28${\pm}$6.52MPa). There were significant differences between experimental 1 group and other groups (p<0.05). 4. The shear bond strength to dentin was higher in control group (17.87${\pm}$4.02MPa) and experimental 4 group (16.38${\pm}$3.23MPa) than in other groups, its value was low in experimental 1 group (3.95${\pm}$2.51 MPa) and experimental 2 group (6.72${\pm}$2.26MPa)(p<0.05). 5. Failure mode of fractured site on the enamel showed mostly adhesive failures in experimental 1 and 3 groups. 6. Failure mode of fractured site on the dentin did not show adhesive failures in control group, but showed mostly adhesive failure in experimental groups. As a summary of above results, if the primed tooth surface was contaminated with artificial saliva, primer should be reapplied after re-etching it.

  • Process gases with vapor or liquid phase as well as gas phase may experience alteration in itself or be contaminated in the fluid pipe to the process chamber. And thus it result in as particles or defects on the substrates in semiconductor, LCD, LED manufacturing. Purifiers and filters are used for control of contamination. However, none of detection device is available in the delivery line. In this paper, we propose simple device with lighting and sensing in order to predict contamination of the fluid or the tube wall. For some general purpose gases, it showed constant voltage output regardless of the flow rates. But, the smoke and the moisture in the air lowered the figure due to its concentration. Numerical values for several solid and liquid media were obtained. And, the operating temperature tendency was investigated.

  • 원자력 관련시설에서는 방사선 오염공기가 시설 밖으로 누출되지 않도록 시설 내부를 상시 부압으로 유지하고, 또한 내부를 방사선 준위 별로 구분하여 구역 칸 차압을 유지하는 것이 중요하다. 환기설비 운영 중에 부압의 변동이 일어나기 쉬운데 HEPA 필터의 눈메꿈과 각 구역 간 출입문 개폐의 영향이 가장 크다. 환기계통운전에 있어서는 출입문 개폐상태 감시확인 및 HEPA 필터 등의 각 뱅크에 차압계를 설치하여 필터의 눈메꿈 상태를 주기적으로 측정하고 교체함으로써 방사성폐기물처리시설 내 부압 및 각 구역 간 차압을 일정하게 유지할 수 있었다.

  • The photocatalytic treatment of water contaminated with 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) was explored in bench-scale experiments in batch mode using a Pyrex tube coated with a thin film of $TiO_2$ located inside a photoreactor. The reactor was aerated by purging it with compressed air before initiating the photocatalytic reaction. The rate of TNT degradation approximated first-order kinetics. The reaction rate constant decreased as the TNT concentration increased from 25 to 100 mg/L, while the first-order kinetics could be modeled using a Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The addition of the organic reductants methanol and EDTA significantly enhanced the rate of TNT degradation, with optimum results in the presence of 20% methanol by volume. EDTA increased the rate of TNT removal by enhancing the role of the reductants.

  • The imperfections of LiTaO3 crystals grown from the Pt-Rh and the Ir crucible were investigated with X-ray diffraction, optical and electron microscope. The growth direction was <100>h and the plane parallel to the plane connecting two main growth ridges was (012)h which would be the main cleavage plane. The dislocation density in the specimen cut parallel to (012)h plane increased with polishing time and the inverted ferroelectric microdomains were induced based on this dislocations. Such imperfections as 180$^{\circ}$ domains, microcracks, dislocations and stacking faults. could be found in the LiTaO3 crytals. The crystal contaminated with lots of Rh form Pt-Rh crucible during the crystal growing under air atmosphere contained more imperfections. The main cleavage plane and subgrain boundary parallel to its growing axis might be the main source of reducing the mechnical strength during the wafering process.

  • Time dependent ozone generation characteristics of some oxide layers grown by ozone on the surface of corona discharge wires have been investigated experimentally in air ambience. Four wires of stainless steel, iron, silver and copper were used for the corona discharge wire of an ozone generator. And the effect of the metal oxide layers on ozone generation was studied and the contamination morphology of each layers was characterized. With the SEM images and the EDS spectra, it was found that all the surface of the corona wire were oxidized by the generated ozone and contaminated by airborne particles through the gradient force. As a result, the morphology and the electrical property of metal oxide layer grown on corona wire surface influenced on ozone generation characteristics i.e. discharge mechanisms.
