Metal organic frameworks (MOF) have generated considerable interests as a potential candidate for hydrogen storage owing to their extremely high surface-to-volume ratio and low density. In this study, Pt nanoparticles of about 3 nm in size were introduced outside MOF-5 [$Zn_4O$(1,4-benzenedicarbocylate)3], which was then encapsulated with hydrophobic microporous carbon black (denoted CB@Pt/MOF-5) in order to enhance hydrogen uptake capacity without decreasing the specific surface area and hydrostability. To study the chemical composition, morphology, crystal information, and properties of the synthesized material, a variety of techniques is employed, including WXRD, XPS, ICP-AES, FE-SEM, HR-TEM, and N2 adsorption-desorption, confirming the formation of novel hybrid composite designated CB@Pt/MOF-5 with highly crystalline structure, large specific surface area and pore volume. In addition, $H_2$ storage capacity for resulting material was measured using magnetic suspension microbalance at 77 and 298 K under high-pressure condition, and the hydrostability was also tested by exposing the sample to 33% relative humidity at $23^{\circ}C$ and measuring XRD as a function of time.

HAZ(Heat Affected Zone of weldm ents) properties were investigated for a high nitrogen austenitic stainless steel with a chemical composition of Fe-0.02C-0.15Si-6.00Mn-10.0Ni-23.0Cr-2.00Mo-0.48N-0.14V. Thermal cycle of HAZ was simulated by the thermal cycle simulator (Gleeble 1500). The heat treatment was applied to the Charpy test size sample without notch under various peak temperatures and/or the holding times condition. V-notch Charpy test was performed at the temperature range of 273~77 K. Metallographic examination also was carried out by using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The simulated specimens revealed a slight embrittlement compared with the base materials. The impact toughness of the specimens deteriorated with the decreasing test temperature. The results from Charpy V-notch test, however, showed that significant degradation of absorbed energy caused by brittle fracture was not observed for the specimen tested in the test temperature range.

A large scatter of the chemical abundances among globular cluster red giants has been observed. Especially the chemical elements C, N, O, Na, Mg, and Al vary form star to star within globular clusters. Except for $\omega$ Cen and M22, most globular clusters could be considered to be monometallic of their iron peak elements within error ranges. The variations in light elements among globuar cluster giants appear much more pronounced than in field halo giants of comparable Fe-peak metallicity. It has been found that in general the nitrogen abundance is anticorrelated with both carbon and oxygen, while it is correlated with Na and AI. These intracluster abundance inhomogeneities can be interpreted either by mixing of nucleosythesized material from the deep stellar interior during the red giant branch phase of evolution or by inhomogeneities of primordially processed material, from which the stars were formed. The simple way of distingushing between two senarios is to obtain the element abundances of main-sequence stars in globular clusters, which are too faint for high resolution spectroscopic studies until now. Both 'evolutionary' and 'primodial' origins are accepted for explanations of abundance variations among red giants and CN-CH anticorrelations among main-sequence stars in globular clusters. This paper reviews chemical abundances of light elements among globular cluster giants, with brief reviews of cannonical stellar evolution of low mass stars after main-sequence and deep mixing for abundance variations of cluster giants, and a possible connection between deep mixing and second parameter.

This research is to study the effects of individual element(C, N, O, Na, Mg, Al, Si, and Fe) on the standard stellar models. Our work is different from previous works in two aspects. Firstly, we have chosen to maintain helium abundance and other metal elements as target elements were changed. This is to see the effects more clearly, without further complication. Secondly, the amount of enhancement or reduction in each element has been based on the recent observation of stars in globular clusters. For comparison study with observation of the globular clusters, the mass and metallicity grids of the standard stellar models have been constructed in range $0.7{\sim}1.0M{\odot}$ and 0.0002~0.007, respectively. The opacity as a function of depth in stellar models at equal evolutionary point, as well as the evolutionary tracks, have been analyzed. The quantified shifts of the evolutionary tracks for the stellar models which have changed abundance of individual element and the astronomical meaning with physical reasons which produce the results, are going to be presented in this talk.

During the past decade, giant magnetotransport phenomena such as giant magetoresistance (GMR) in thin films and in manganese perovskites, and, giant magnetoimpedance (GMI) in soft magnetic amorphous ribbons, have brought much interest in the basic physical understanding and their applications as magnetic recording heads and in magnetic sensors technology. Among the parameters required for the quality of a magnetic sensor, temperature dependences of GMR and GMI profiles are playing an important role. In the present work, we have studied temperature dependences of the longitudinal permeability and giant magnetoimpedance effect in $Co_{70}$F $e_{5}$S $i_{15}$ N $b_{2.2}$C $u_{0.8}$ $B_{7}$ amorphous ribbons expecting as a promising candidate in the domain of magnetic sensors.rs.rs.rs.s.

Lactoferrin was first identified 60 years ago as a "red protein" in bovine milk. Lactoferrin, one of the transferrin family proteins, is an iron-binding glycoprotein found in milk and various mucosal secretions; it is also released from activated neutrophils. Human lactoferrin has a molecular weight of 82.4 kDa and is composed of 702 or 692 amino acid residues. Bovine lactoferrin has a molecular weight of 83.1 kDa and is composed of 689 amino acid residues. Both lactoferrin and transferrin have the ability to bind two $Fe^{3+}$ ions, together with two ${CO_3}^{2-}$ ions with extremely high affinity; these proteins also have the ability to release this iron at low pH levels. The polypeptide chain in lactoferrin is folded into two globular lobes, representing the N-terminal and C-terminal halves. Both lobes have similar folding and 40% sequence identity. This protein is capable of multiple functions as described in various review papers, including antimicrobial, antiviral, antiinflammatory, anticancer, antioxidant, and cell growth-promoting activities. Lactoferrin also exhibits immunomodulating effects and plays an active role in the regulation of myelopoiesis and the inhibition of bacterial translocation.

We sdudied effect of additives on catalytic activity in thermal catalytic de-NOx process which was composed of thermal reduction, catalytic reduction and catalytic oxidation stage. Pd-Pt/${\gamma}$-$Al_2O_3$ catalysts with the addition of transition metals(Co, Cu, Fe, Ni, W, Zn, Zr) and rare earth metals(Ce, Sr) were prepared by the conventional washcoating method. Those catalysts were characterized by CO pulse chemisorption, ICP, $N_2$ adsorption, SEM and XRD. The effect of catalyst additives on NOx removal for diesel emission was studied in thermal catalytic de-NOx process at reduction temperature(350~50$0^{\circ}C$), space velocity(5,000~20,000 $hr^{-1}$) and the engine load(0~120kW). The concentraton of CO, $CO_2$, NO and $NO_2$ in the exhaust gas increased with the engine load. On the other hand the concentration of $O_2$ decreased. The de-NOx activityof all prepared catalysts increased with respect to high CO and low $O_2$ level in the thermal reduction stage of the process. Insertion of Ce to Pt-Pd/${\gamma}$-$Al_2O_3$ catalyst showed the best activity of all the catalysts under these experimental conditions. De-NOx catalysts are effective to remove CO in addition to NOx in the catalytic reduction stage.

스마트폰과 같은 통신기기 및 각종 전자제품에 있어 크기의 축소와 간소화 추세에 따라 인쇄회로기판(PCB)의 초미세회로설계 기술이 요구됨에 따라, 인쇄회로기판과 첨단 전자부품 사이의 접합 신뢰성을 향상시키기 위해 무전해 니켈 도금이 널리 사용되고 있다. 일반적으로, 무전해 Ni도금은 강산, 강염기성 용액을 이용하여 수행되고 있다. 따라서, 공정과정 중에 기판의 손상을 초래하기도 할뿐만 아니라, 환경적으로도 문제시 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 친환경적 도금공정의 개발을 위해 중성에서 N-(B)무전해 도금을 시행하였다. 중성의 무전해 도금공정은 어떠한 기판을 사용하여도 기판의 손상없이 도금이 가능하다는 장점을 가지고 있고, Boron(B)은 Ni을 비정질화 시키는 물질로 알려져 있다. B가 첨가된 무전해 Ni도금 박막에 있어 B의 영향을 알아보기 위하여 중성조건에서 B를 포함한 DMAB의 첨가량을 조절하였다. Ni-(B) 무전해 도금 시 도금조의 온도는 $40^{\circ}C$로 하였고, 무전해 도금액의 pH는 7(중성)로 유지하였다. Cu Foil기판을 사용하여 DMAB의 양에 따라 성장된 Ni-B무전해 도금 박막의 특성을 분석하기 위해 X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM), Optical microscope (OM), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS)을 이용하였다.

고효율의 에너지 변환 및 친환경적인 이점들을 이유로, 고분자전해질 연료전지(PEMFC)는 차세대 에너지 장치로 이목을 끌어왔다. 반면, 값비싼 백금 촉매의 이용은 연료전지의 상업적 이용에 주요한 결점으로 작용했다. 최근, Zelenay와 연구팀은 폴리아닐린-철-탄소 복합체구조에서 산소환원활성이 백금과 견주어 비슷한 성능을 낼 수 있음을 보고 하였다. Dodelet은 이러한 높은 성능이 전이금속의 영향에 의한 것일 수 있다는 주장을 하였다. 본 연구팀은 지난 연구에서 제일원리전산모사를 통해 니켈, 코발트, 구리등과 같은 전이금속이 질소가 도핑된 탄소 그래핀층에 미치는 거동을 밝혔다. 결론적으로, 금속들은 질소가 도핑된 그래핀의 전자구조를 바꿀 수 있고, 이러한 전자구조의 변화는 산소 환원반응에서 긍정적으로 작용할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 이러한 이론적 연구에 기반하여, 탄소층으로 감싼 금속은 내구성과 활성을 동시에 보유한 향후 전망있는 촉매 물질로 예상되어진다. 특히, 질소가 도핑된 탄소층으로 코팅된 철-코발트 합금은 계산을 통해 산소환원반응에서 우수할 것으로 예측되었다. 본 연구팀은 FeCo@N-C 나노입자를 직접 합성하였고, 이 촉매의 우수한 활성을 전기화학적, 구조적 관점에서 1) 질소의 도핑 효과, 2) 탄소의 두께 효과, 3) 합금효과에 집중하여 분석하였다.
