Ferroelectric $Sr_{0.3}Ba_{0.7}Nb_{2}O_{6}$ (SBN30) thin films were deposited on Pt/Ti/$SiO_{2}$/Si(100) substrates by ion beam sputtering. During annealing treatment at $750^{\circ}C$, poling was attempted by applying dc voltage bias across polished surfaces. Phase relation, microstructure and crystallization behavior were examined using XRD and FE-SEM. Ferroelectric hysteresis characteristics were also determined where both remanent polarization and coercive values decreased with the increase of bias voltage. The measured remanent polarization and coercive field values at 5 V and 10 V bias were $36{\mu}C/cm^2$, $10{\mu}C/cm^2$ and 100kV /cm, 80kV /cm, respectively.

LDPE/polystyrene cation exchange membranes were prepared through a monomer-sorption method and UV radiation polymerization. The reaction behaviors in the preparation were investigated. The membranes prepared were characterized in terms of physical and electrochemical properties. The membranes exhibited reasonable properties for an ion-exchange membrane with weight gain (Wr) of above 0.3, electrical resistance of below 1.0 Ω $\textrm{cm}^2$ and ion-exchange capacity of 1.8 meq/g-dry membrane. DSC studies and FE-SEM image revealed the formation of a homogeneous membrane. Both the current-voltage and the chronopotentiometric curves of the membranes indicated that LDPE/polystyrene membranes can be properly used at a high current density, and the surface homogeneity of cation-exchange sites in the membrane was comparable to that in a commercial membrane.

Due to rapid consumption of hydrogen peroxide, large amount of hydrogen peroxide is required when Fenton reaction is applied to the contaminated soil. In this study, acetate was employed as a ligand of $Fe^{2+}$ to enhance the efficiency of removal of phenanthrene by securing the stability of hydrogen peroxide. 0.5 ${\sim}$ 3 times of acetate (2${\sim}$12mM) was added to compare with molar concentration of $Fe^{2+}$. Low initial concentration of hydrogen peroxide was 0.7% to eliminate side effect of removal efficiency. The results showed that hydrogen peroxide lifetime was lasted up to 72 hours, or more than 50 times of normal lifetime. Phenanthrene removal efficiency was improved up to 70% due to stabilized hydrogen peroxide. Ferrous ion was oxidized to ferric ion and oxidation-reduction was repeated during the reaction. Finally ferric ion was reduced to ferrous by $HO_2$. It was confirmed that, due to the influence of hydrogen peroxide, pH was acid region and it remained at the range of 4 ${\sim}$ 5 when 8 mM or more of acetate was added. Acetate which was used as the ligand of Fe was also decomposed by Fenton reaction. The decomposition time of acetate was slower than phenanthrene. Therefore, it was able to come to the conclusion that phenanthrene was superior to acetate at the competition for decomposition. Through the results of this study, it was able to identify the possibilities to improve the efficiency of Fenton reaction in the contaminated soil and its economic feasibility, and to move to more realistic technique through research expanded to neutral pH region.

Objectives : This study aimed to establish cosmeceutical activities of Perilla frutescens var. acuta. Methods : Folium Perillae, which had been extracted, concentrated, and freeze drying with water and ethanol, have been used for the experiment. The effects on electronic donating ability, SOD-like activity, xanthine oxidase inhibition, whitening effect have been investigated in the cosmeceutical activity measurement of function experiment. Results : Both water and ethanol extracts of Perilla frutescens var. acuta showed relatively high electron donating ability of more than 70% at over 500ppm. Also, SOD like activity increased in a dose dependent matter of more than 80% at 5,000ppm, while tyrosinase showed insufficient inhibitory rate. Xanthine oxidase showed a meaningful inhibitory effect of 72.4% in water extract and 55.3% at 1,000ppm in ethanol extract. The addition of $Fe^{2+}ion\;and\;Cu^{2+}ion$ showed relatively high oxidizing inhibitory effect of 57% and 41%, respectively, at 500ppm in water extract and, when $Fe^{2+}$ ion was added in ethanol extract, the effect of 64% at 1,000ppm was achieved. Also, higher oxidizing inhibitory effect was shown against $Fe^{2+}$ rather than $Cu^{2+}$ in both water and ethanol extracts. For human cancer cells, relatively high growth inhibition ability was shown against melanoma G361 in both water and ethanol extracts. Conclusion : From the above results, it was confirmed that Perilla frutescens var. acuta could be used in functional cosmetics.

A proton-conducting bisphenylpropaned sulfonated fluorinated blockcopolymer (BPSFBC) was synthesized. Five kinds of polymer electrolyted composite membranes were preparated by incorporating silica ($SiO_2$) with various weight ratio. And their characteristics were investigated by FT-IR (fourier transform infrared), $^1H-NMR$ ($^1H$ nuclear magnetic resonance), TGA (thermogravimetric analysis), water uptake, FE-SEM (field emission scanning electron microscopes), and ion conductivity properties. The water uptake and ion conductivity were increased until 9 wt% $SiO_2$, and then decreased. The maximum proton conductivity equal to $52mScm^{-1}$ was measured for the BPSFBC/$SiO_2$-9 composite membrane at $90^{\circ}C$ and 100% relative humidity. From the measured results, it is distinct that the manufactured composite membrane BPSFBC/$SiO_2$-9 can be considered as a polymer membrane suitable for a fuel cell electrolyte.

A safety vent is crucial to protect its user from unpredictable explosions caused by increasing internal pressure of the lithium-ion batteries. In order to prevent the explosion of the battery, a safety vent rupture is required when the internal pressure reaches a critical value. In conventional manufacturing, the cap plate and the safety vent are fabricated separately and subsequently welded to each other. In the current study, a manufacturing process including a backward extrusion and coining process is suggested to produce an integral safety vent which also has the benefit of increasing production efficiency. FE simulations were conducted to predict the rupture pressure and to design the safety vent using a ductile fracture criterion and the element deletion method. The critical value, C, in the ductile fracture criterion was obtained from uniaxial tensile tests with an annealed sheet of 1050-H14 aluminum alloy. Rupture tests were preformed to measure the rupture pressure of the safety vent. The results met the required rupture pressure within 8.5±0.5 kgf/cm². The simulation results were compared with experimental results, which showed that the predicted rupture pressures are in good agreement with experimentally measured ones with a maximum error of only 3.9%.

The properties of carboxyl proteinase which was contained in Poria cocos (Schw.) Wolf were investigated by means of the purification with 0.65 ammonium sulfate saturation, DEAE cellulose and Sephadex G-75 gel filtration. This enzyme was found to hydrolyze only peptide bond between glutamyl-L-tyrosine of carbobenzoxy-L-glutamyl-L-tyrosine among the synthetic substrates of carbobenzoxy-L-glutamyl-L-tyrosine, hippuryl- L-phenylalanine and hippuryl-L-arginine. This enzyme was inhibited by $Zn^{+2},\;Fe^{+2},\;Ca^{+2},\;CN^{-1},\;P_2O_7^{-4}$ ions, but stimulated by $Hg^{+2}$ ion. Also, this enzyme was inhibited by organic compounds such as L-lysine, L-phenylalanine, hippuryl-L-phenylalanine, diazoacetyl-DL-norleucine methyl ester (DAN) and 1,2-epoxy-3-(P-nitrophenoxy)propane(EPNP). In particular, the activity was inhibited by L-lysine till 20 minutes of preincubation time rapidly, and by DAN in the presence of $Cu^{+2}$ ion more rapidly after 30 minutes than DAN in the absence of $Cu^{+2}$ ion. L-Lysine was found to be a competitive inhibitor and its $K_i$ value was determined to be 0.12 mmole by Dixon plot.

The degradation of Nafion membrane by hydrogen peroxide was investigated in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). Degradation tests were carried out in a solution of $10{\sim}30%$ hydrogen peroxide containing 4ppm $Fe^{2+}$ ion which is well known as Fenton's reagent at $80^{\circ}C$ for 48hr. Characterization of degraded membranes were examined through the IR, Water-uptake, Ion exchange capacity, mechanical strength and $H_2$ permeability. After degradation, C-F, S-O and C-O chemical bonds of membrane were broken by radical formed by $H_2O_2$ decomposition. Breaking of C-F bond which is the membrane backbone reduced the mechanical strength of Nafion membrane and hence induced pinholes, resulting in increase of $H_2$ crossover through the membrane. Also the decomposition of C-O and S-O, side chain and terminal bond of membrane, decreased the ion exchange capacity of the membrane.
