  • There are 17,427 reservoirs in Korea, of which about 96% were built before the mid 1980s. Therefore, aging is severe and reinforcement are necessary. In addition, aged reservoirs, which are more than 50 years old, account for 70% of the total. Therefore, there is a problem such as the collapse of the reservoir and the decrease of the storage capacity due to progress of aging with time. The grouting method using cement is mainly used as maintenance and reinforcement method of old reservoir. However, the grouting method using cement has engineering and environmental problems. In order to solve the engineering and environmental problems of cement grouting method, an eco-friendly grouting material was developed that mixes circular resource grouting binder, high molar ratio sodium silicate and colloidal silica. The engineering and environmental properties of the developed injection materials were evaluated by conducting gel time, homo-gel strength, sea water resistance test and environmental stability evaluation. Also, examined the possibility of replacing OPC existing aged reservoir reinforcement methods. As a result, it was found out that it was better than the conventional cement method in terms of engineering and environment. However, since this study is the result of laboratory test, it is necessary of verify the application at field of aged reservoir.

  • Polyethylene oxide (PEO)-polymethacrylic acid (PMAA) interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN) were synthesized via radical polymerization of PMAA and simultaneous crosslinking of PEO using triisocyanate. The equilibrium swelling of PEO-PMAA IPN was determined at different pHs. The swelling of PEO-PMAA IPN, ranged from 20% to 90%, was more sensitive than that of homo polymer PMAA gel This is probably due to protonation and deprotonation of the PMAA network and interpolymer complex formation between PEO and PMAA. Several model drugs were loaded into the IPN matrices and the release mechanisms were investigated. The release of nonionizable drugs such as ftorafur and prednisolone was controlled by swelling of the matrices. However, he release of propranolol, positively charged drug, was more affected by the ionic interaction between the drug and PMAA newtork, and the interpolymer complexation.

  • 현재 태양광 시장에 진출한 대부분의 Si계열 태양전지는 복잡한 공정과 원재료 고갈, 높은 가격으로 인해 한계에 직면에 있는 상태이다. 최근 많은 연구소나 학교에서는 기존의 Si계열 태양전지를 대체할 대안으로 염료 감응형 태양전지에 대해서 높은 관심을 보이고 있으며, 그동안의 연구개발로 단위 셀 면적에서는 상용화에 근접한 효율을 확보한 상태이다. 염료 감응형 태양전지의 작동과정을 간단히 단계별로 살펴보면 나노 결정 산화물 반도체 표면에 흡착된 염료분자가 가시광선을 흡수하면 전자는 HOMO에서 LUMO로 천이하고 이 들뜬 상태의 전자는 다시 에너지 준위가 낮은 반도체 산화물의 전도띠로 주입된다. 주입된 전자는 나노 입자간 계면을 통하여 투명 전도성막으로 확산, 전달되고 산화된 염료분자는 전해질 I-에 의해 다시 환원되어 중성 분자가 된다. 그러나 표면상태 전자 중 일부는 산화된 염료와 다시 결합하거나, 전해질의 $I^{3-}$ 이온을 환원시키기도 한다. 이와 같은 과정은 암전류를 증가시키면서 반도체 전극 막의 성능을 저해하는 주원인이 된다. 전자의 재결합은 투명 전극을 통해서도 가능하기 때문에 투명 전극에 얇은 blocking layer를 도포한 후 나노 결정 산화물 반도체 전극을 제작하면 전지 특성을 향상시킬 수 있다. 본 실험에서 우리는 졸-젤 법으로 $TiO_2$ blocking layer 졸을 만들었고 간단하며 저가공정이 가능한 스크린 프린팅 방법으로 blocking layer를 형성하는 실험을 진행하였다. 전도띠 에너지가 높은 반도체 물질로 표면을 처리하면 $TiO_2$-전해질 간 계면에 에너지 장벽이 형성되어 재결합을 줄여 모든 광전특성이 향상 되었다.

  • 유기 태양전지는 저비용으로 제작이 가능하고 제작이 용이한 장점을 가지고 있으므로 많은 그룹에서 관심을 가지고 있다. 정공 수송층으로 사용되는 PEDOT:PSS는 많이 사용되지만 강한 산성 특성 때문에 ITO 전극에 식각이 되므로 문제가 있다. 그러므로 산화물 반도체 $WO_3$, $MoO_3$, 그리고 $V_2O_3$ 등이 태양전지에 많이 만들어지고 있다. 특히 copper oxide는 높은 광흡수율을 가지고 있으므로 태양전지에 사용하는 데 많은 기대되는 물질이다. Copper oxide 박막은 열증착 법, 스프레이 필로시스, 전기화학 증착, 화학증착법, 그리고 솔-젤법 등 다양한 증착 방법이 있다. 넓은 면적의 소자를 제작할 경우 솔-젤 방법은 기존의 증착법에 비해 낮은 비용으로 제작, 높은 성장율, 그리고 높은 기계적 탄력성의 장점이 있다. 솔-젤법으로 만든 copper oxide는 P3HT의 HOMO (high occupied molecular orbital)와 비슷한 위치에 접하고 있으므로 정공수송층으로 적합하다. 본 연구에서 제작된 태양전지의 구조는 ITO/P3HT:PCBM/CuxO로 구성되어 있다. ITO가 $10{\Omega}$/sq의비저항을 가지고 있었고 UV 처리를 하였다. 그 위에 P3HT:PCBM (1:0.8 weight)를 스핀 코팅하였다. 마지막으로 0.1 M $Cu_xO$용액은 Cu (II) acetate monohydrate를 소스로 2-methoxyethanol ($C_3H_8O_2$)의 용제와 안정제로 monoethanolamine ($C_2H_7NO$)을 섞어서 만들었다. 그리고 P3HT:PCBM 위에 스핀 코팅하였고 열증착 방법으로 전극인 Ag 을 증착하여 최종 소자를 만들었다. Cu(II) acetate의 소스로 제작된 박막의 투과율 측정을 통해 에너지 밴드갭을 구할 수 있었다. Copper oxide 박막은 다결정구조 이므로 다중 밴드갭으로 구성되어지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 최종적으로 만들어진 소자를 열처리를 통해 소자 특성을 조사했더니 250도에서 가장 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

  • In this study, the mixed design of grout with hish strength.high permeation.high durability and environmental stability as the state of the art in material field was performed. Also, the subjects of grouting, grouting effects for ground conditions, and environmental effects were analyzed. According to these results, the fundamental data will be suggested as a design of grouting in the field application. The physical, mechanical and chemical characteristics with particle shape of the grouts were analyzed. Then, the gel-time of grouts, which is essential for workability and permeation range, were controlled. Also, the laboratory model grouting tests were performed to find the characteristics of solidification, permeation and durability with grouts. The ordinary portland, slag and microcement which have been used in the construction field were evaluated fur the environmental effects. To find the leaching of $Cr^{6+}$characteristics in cement grouts, $Cr^{6+}$ leaching tests were performed for the raw materials. Also, the results of leaching test were shorn by surrounding environment. Then, the unconfined compression strength tests were performed with the homo-gel samples, and the amount of changed $Cr^{6+}$ was measured by curing solution.

  • A novel tetrathiafulvalene (TTF)-based main-chain polymer (6TTF-polymer) was successfully synthesized via a condensation polymerization between a newly synthesized dihydroxy TTF derivative and a malonyl chloride, and its chemical structure was characterized by spectroscopic techniques. Molecular weight of the 6TTF-polymer (9,030 g/mol by gel permeation chromatography) was large enough to form the ductile film. The electrochemical and optical properties of the 6TTF-polymer were further estimated by cyclic voltammetry, ultraviolet and photoluminescence spectroscopes. The highest occupied molecular orbital level ($E_{HOMO}$=-4.79 eV) and band-gap energy ($E_g$=1.91 eV) of the 6TTF-polymer suggested that TTF-based polymer could act as a good electron donating material for the optoelectronic applications.

  • Poloxamer-poly (acrylic acid) (PAA) interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) were prepared via matrix polymerization of acrylic acid with poloxamer prepolymer. The equilibrium s welling of poloxamer/PAA IPNs was determined in various pH medium. The swelling of poloxamer/PAA IPNs was more affected by pH difference compared with the swelling of homo PAA gel due to protonation and deprotonation of the PAA network, followed by reversible formation and dissociation of the interpolymer complex due to hydrogen bonding between acidic hydrogens and ether oxygens. Nonionic/anionic/cationic drugs were incorporated into IPN matriceds as a model drug and their release behavior was studied. Nonionic, drug revealed release patterns depending solely on pH dependent swelling kinetics. In contrast, the release of ionic drugs was significantly affected by ionic drug-polymer interaction as well as the swelling kinetics.

  • The objective of this study was to develop a polymeric drug delivery system for camptothecin (CPT), capable of improving its therapeutic index and reducing its side effects. A monomeric conjugate, 3,6-endo-methylene-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthalimidoethanoylcamptothecin in (ETECPT) between CPT and 3,6-endo-methylene-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthalimidoethanoic acid was synthesized. Its homo-and copolymer with acrylic acid (AA) were prepared by photopolymerization using 2,2-dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone (DMP) as a photoinitiator. The monomer and its polymers were characterized by IR, $^1$H- and $^{13}$ C-NMR spectra. The ETECPT content in poly(ETECPT-co-AA) obtained by elemental analysis was 82 wt%. The number-average molecular weights of the polymers determined by gel permeation chromatography were as follows: M$_{n}$ = 11,400 for poly(ETECPT), M$_{n}$ = 17,900 for poly(ETECPT-co-AA). The $IC_{50}$/ values of ETECPT and its polymers against cancer cells were much larger than that of CPT. Our results from the in vivo antitumor activity indicated that all polymers show high antitumor activity than CPT at a dose of 100 mg/kg./kg.

  • The catabolic threonine dehydratase from Serratia marcescens ATCC 25419 was purified to homogeniety using Sephadex G-200 gel filtration and AMP-Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography. The molecular weight of the native enzyme was 120,000 by native pore gradient PAGE. The enzyme was composed of four identical subunits with subunit molecular weights of 30,000 by SDS-PAGE. The Km values of the enzyme for L-threonine with and without AMP were 7.3 and 92 mM, respectively. There were 2 moles of pyridoxal phosphate and 16 moles of free -SH groups per 1 mole of enzyme. The enzyme was inhibited by $\alpha$-ketobutyrate, pyruvate, glyoxylate, and phosphoenol pyruvate(PEP) in the presence of AMP, yet stimulated by cAMP and ADP. For enzyme properties in comparison with S. marcescens, E. coli, and S. typhimurium enzyme, such as the PLP content, number of free sulfhydryl groups, and existence of ADP binding site, the S. marcescens enzyme was more similar to the S. typhimurium enzyme than the E. coli enzyme. Of the three enteric bacteria, the E. coli and S. typhimurium enzyme was increased the activity by ADP and cAMP, respectively, but only the S. marcescens enzyme was increased the activity by both ADP and cAMP. Therefore, the subtle differences in the properties between enzymes from the three enteric bacteria may represent minor structural differences among these enzymes and warrants further study.

  • Several new symmetric and asymmetric homo and hetero dinuclear complexes of the type $[Cl(dppp)(NO)_2M({\mu}-pyz)M'(NO)_2(dppp)Cl][ClO_4]_2$ and $[Cl(phen)(NO)_2M({\mu}-pyz)M'(NO)_2(dppp)Cl][ClO_4]_2$(M,M'= Mo or W; phen = 1,10-phenanthroline; dppp = 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane; pyz = 1,4-pyrazine) were synthesized in three-steps starting from $[M(NO)_2Cl_2]_n(M = Mo, W)$. The final products were purified by eluting it through silica gel column ($2{\times}20$ cm) with acetone as the eluent. Characterization of these complexes and some related complexes was accomplished through UV-vis., $^1H$-NMR, $^{13}C$-NMR and IR spectroscopies as well as elemental analysis. The infrared spectra indicate that the NO groups occupy cis-positions of the octahedral. The $^1H$ and $^{13}C-NMR$ data for the new compounds revealed a dimeric structures with bridged pyz.
