The effects of 0.1g/dl nonionic surfactant solutions on liquid wetting and retention properties of wool fabric are reported. The 10 different nonionic surfactants (Span 20, Tween 20, 40, 60, 80, 21, 61, 81, 65, 85), wool cloth (EMPA 217), and wool soiled cloth (EMPA 107) are used in the study. Both EMPA 217 and 107 have water contact angle($\Theta$)>$90^{\circ}$, which indicates that water spreading over a fabric surface and penetration into the fabric rarely occur. However, EMPA 217 and 107 are easily wetted with perchloroethylene(PCE) having very low values of $\Theta$'s and high values of liquid retention. Water wetting properties are greatly improved by adding nonionic surfactants into the system. Generally, hydrophilic surfactants which have low number of carbon atoms or unsaturated hydrophobic structures are effective in improving water wetting of wool fabrics. The water retention of EMPA 217 and 107 in surfactant solutions have positive relations with $cos{\Theta}$, adhesion tension, and work of adhesion. 40.3% pore volume of EMPA 217 and 26.1% pore volume of EMPA 217 can be filled with water even when we assume $cos{\Theta}=1$ (${\Theta}=0^{\circ}$).

Stable poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) [P(St-co-DVB)] micro spheres with narrow size distribution were synthesized in the presence of 2,2'-azobis(2,4-dimethyl valeronitrile) (V-65) and co-initiator in an acetone/water mixture in the precipitation polymerization at $53^{\circ}C$ for 24 h. Potassium peroxodisulfate (KPS), ammonium peroxodisulfate (APS) and sodium peroxodisulfate (NaPS) were used as co-initiators. The optimum ratio of acetone to water for the formation of a narrow distribution of P(St-co-DVB) particles was 49:11 (g/g). The optimum co-initiator compositions for narrow distribution were 9:1 (g/g) for V-65 to KPS, 11:1 for V-65 to APS and 6:1 for V-65 to NaPS. The yield for these compositions was $54{\sim}57%$ and the largest particle size was obtained with the lowest zeta-potential and CV values. From the XPS measurements, the charge density was increased but the zeta potential decreased with increasing sulfur content, implying that the sulfate group provides the electrostatic stabilization on the particle surface. This suggested that the self-crosslinking between styrene and DVB, the electrostatic stabilization of initiators, and the balanced hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties of the solvents are responsible for the formation of stable P(St-co-DVB) spherical particles with narrow size distribution.

Application of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) to the fabrication of organic thin film transistor has been recently reported very often since it can help to provide ohmic contact between films as well as to form simple and effective electrode pattern. Accordingly, quality of these ultra-thin films is becoming more imperative. In this study, in order to manufacture a high quality SAM pattern, a hydrophobic alkylsilane monolayer and a hydrophilic aminosilane monolayer were selectively coated on $SiO_2$ surface through the consecutive procedures of a micro-contact printing (${\mu}CP$) and dip-coating methods under extremely dry condition. On a SAM pattern cleaned with SC1 solution immediately after ${\mu}CP$, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) source and drain electrode array were very selectively and nicely vapour phase polymerized. On the other side, on a SC1-untreated SAM pattern, PEDOT array was very poorly polymerized. It strongly suggests that the SC1 cleaning process effectively removes unwanted contaminants on SAM pattern, thereby resulting in very selective growth of PEDOT electrode pattern.

덱스트란 용액으로 필름을 제조하여 여러 가지 특성들을 살펴보았으며, 가소제 및 가교제를 첨가하거나 저온 플라스마로 표면을 처리함으로써 이러한 특성들을 향상시킬 수 있는 지를 살펴보았다. 덱스트란 필름은 기계적 강도는 우수하였으나 부스러지기 쉽고 수분에 대단히 약한 특성을 보였다 가소제를 첨가할 경우에는 유연성이 크게 개선되는 대신에 기계적 강도가 크게 약화되었다. 하지만, 가소제를 첨가한 다음 가교제로 가교시키거나 함께 첨가할 경우에는 비교적 우수한 기계적 강도와 함께 유연성을 지닌 필름이 제조되었으며, 수분에 대한 저항성도 향상되었다. 또한, 아세틸렌 플라스마로 처리할 경우 필름 자체의 특성은 크게 변하지 않으나 친수성인 표면이 소수성으로 바뀌었다.

A novel plasma system has been developed for 3-dimensional modification of the carbon nano-powders. Improvement of dispersion of these nano materials are studied by plasma discharge, not using chemical modification. The plasma process is considered to great advantages over wet chemical process due to environmental, economic viewpoint, and uniformity over the treated volume. The uniform dispersion is a critical factor for these material's nano composite applications. Using this plasma system, graphene, carbon black, and CNT was treated and functionalized. Several key discharge conditions such as Ar/H2/O2 or Ar/H2/NH3 gas ratio, treatment time, power, feeder's vibration frequency are investigated. Hydrophobic of graphene has turned some more into hydrophilic by reaction test with water, electrophoresis, surface contact angle test, and turbidity analysis. The oxygen content ratio in the plasma treated CNT has increased about 3.7 times than the untreatedone. In the case of graphene and carbon black, the oxygen- and nitrogen- content has been enhanced average 10%. O-H (N-H) peak, C-O (C-N) peak, and C=O (C=N) peak data have been detected by FTIR measurement and intensified compared to before-plasma treatment due to O2 or NH3 content.

This letter presents a smart integrated microfluidic device which can be applied to actively immobilize proteins on demand. The active component in the device is a temperature-controllable microelectrode array with a smart polymer film, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) which can be thermally switched between hydrophilic and hydrophobic states. It is integrated into a micro hot diaphragm having an integrated micro heater and temperature sensors on a 2-micrometer-thick silicon oxide/silicon nitride/silicon oxide (O/N/O) template. Only 36 mW is required to heat the large template area of 2 mm${\times}$16 mm to $40^{\circ}C$ within 1 second. To relay the stimulus-response activity to the microelectrode surface, the interface is modified with a smart polymer. For a model biomolecular affinity test, an anti-6-(2, 4-dinitrophenyl) aminohexanoic acid (DNP) antibody protein immobilization on the microelectrodes is demonstrated by fluorescence patterns.

Nanocatalysts are usually used in the synthesis of petrochemical products, fine chemicals, biofuel production, and automotive exhaust catalysis. Due to high activity and stability, recyclability, and cost-effectiveness, nanocatalysts are a key area in green chemistry. On the other hand, water as a common by-product or undesired element in a range of nanocatalyzed processes may be promoting the deactivation of catalytic systems. The advancement in the field of hydrophobicity in nanocatalysis could relatively solves these problems and improves the efficiency and recyclability of nanocatalysts. Some recent developments in the synthesis of novel nanocatalysts with tunable hydrophilic-hydrophobic character have been reviewed in this article and followed by highlighting their use in catalyzing several processes such as glycerolysis, Fenton, oxidation, reduction, ketalization, and hydrodesulfurization. Zeolites, carbon materials, modified silicas, surfactant-ligands, and polymers are the basic components in the controlling hydrophobicity of new nanocatalysts. Various characterization methods such as N2 adsorption-desorption, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, and contact angle measurement are critical in the understanding of hydrophobicity of materials. Also, in this review, it has been shown that how the hydrophobicity of nanocatalyst is affected by its structure, textural properties, and surface acidity, and discuss the important factors in designing catalysts with high efficiency and recyclability. It is useful for chemists and chemical engineers who are concerned with designing novel types of nanocatalysts with high activity and recyclability for environmentally friendly applications.

절연 특성이 기존의 SiO$_2$ 보다 우수한 500 두께의 SiN$_4$층을 두 단결정 실리콘사이의 절연막질로 채택하고 직접접합시켜 직경 10cm의 Si(100) /500 -Si$_3$N$_4$/Si (100) 기판쌍을 제조하였다. p-type (100) 실리콘기판을 친수성, 소수성을 갖도록 습식방법으로 세척한 두 그룹의 시편들을 준비하였다. 기판전면에 LPCVD로 500 $\AA$ 두께의 Si$_3$N$_4$∥Si(100) 기판을 성장시키고 실리론 기판과 고청정상태에서 가접시킨 후, 선형열원의 이동속도를 0.1mm/s로 고정시키고 선형 입열량을 400~1125w 범위에서 변화시키면서 직접접합을 실시하였다. 접합된 기판은 적외선 카메라로 계면 접합면적을 확인하고 razor blade creek opening 측정법으로 세정 방법에 따른 각 기판쌍 그들의 접합강도를 확인하였다. 접합강도가 측정된 기판쌍은 high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM )을 사용하여 수직단면 미세구조를 조사하였다. 입열량의 증가에 따라 두 그를 모두 접합율은 큰 유의차 없이 765% 정도로, 소수성 처리가 된 기판쌍의 접합강도는 1577mJ/$m^2$가지 선형적으로 증가하였으나, 친수성 처리가 된 기판쌍은 주어진 실험 범위에서 입열량의 증가에 따라 큰 변화 없이 2000mj/$m^2$이상의 접합 강도를 보였다 친수성 처리가 된 기판쌍의 수직단면 미세구조를 고분해능 투과전자현미경으로 각인한 결과 모든 시편의 실리콘과 Si$_3$N$_4$사이에 25 $\AA$ 정도의 SiO$_2$ 자연산화막이 존재하여 중간충 역할을 함으로서 기판접합강도를 향상시키는 것으로 판단되었다.

An ultrafiltration membrane (polyethersulfone, PM 10) was surface-modified by treating it with low-tem­perature plasmas of oxygen, acrylic acid (AA), acetylene, diaminocyolohexane (DACH), and hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO). The effects that these modifications have on the filtration efficiency of a membrane in waste water treat­ment were investigated. The oxygen, AA, and DACH plasma-treated membranes became more hydrophilic. The water contact angles ranged from < $10^{\circ}\;to\;55^{\circ}$ depending on the type of plasma and the treatment conditions. The oxygen plasma-treated membranes displayed a higher initial flux $(312-429\%),$ but lower rejection $(6-91\%),$ than did an untreated membrane. The AA plasma-treated membranes displayed lower or higher initial flux $(42-156\%),$ depending upon the treatment conditions, but higher rejection $(224-295\%)$ in all cases. The DACH plasma-treated membranes displayed lower initial flux. All of them, especially the AA plasma-treated membrane, displayed improved fouling resistance with either a slower or no flux decline. Acetylene and HMDSO plasma-treated membranes became more hydrophobic and displayed both lower initial flux and lower fouling resistance.

목재는 2-메타크릴로일옥시에틸 이소시아네이트(MOI)와 $50-60^{\circ}C$에서 촉매존재하에서 매우 쉽게 반응하였다. 적외선 분광분석을 통하여, 목재가 MOI와 우레탄결합($1715cm^{-1}$)를 형성하고 있을 뿐만 아니라, 올레핀구조의 탄소간 이중결합 ($1635cm^{-1}$)이 존재하고 있음이 밝혀졌다. 도입된 메타크릴산기는 다른 비닐모노머와의 그래프트공중합시 반응시점으로 작용할 것이다. 또한 MOI처리목재는, MOI와의 반응에 의해 친수성이던 목재의 표면이 소수화되어 접촉각이 증대되는 결과를 낳았다. X선광전자분광분석(XPS)의 결과, 목재의 표면부위의 대부분은 MOI에 의해 개질되었음을 밝혀졌다.
