본 연구에서는 가시광촉매의 특성을 나타낼 수 있는 촉매를 제조하여 촉매를 특성화 하였으며, toluene, xylene, MEK (methyl ethyl ketone), ammonia를 반응물로 하여 기존의 UV-광촉매와 분해능을 비교 실험하였다. UV-광촉매는 파장범위가 280~360 nm 근처에서 광촉매가 활성화된다. 그러나 가시광촉매는 가시광영역인 400~750 nm의 파장영역에서도 광촉매가 활성화 된다. 이것을 UV-Vis 흡수도로 파악하였다. 그리고 가시광촉매의 성능을 향상시키기 위하여 여러 가지 재료로 도핑하는데, 여기서는 망간에 Pt를 부가하여 성능향상을 꾀하였다. Pt를 첨가한 가시광 촉매의 경우 성능이 향상되었음을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 바인더로 MTMS (methyl tri methoxy silane)를 사용하였으며 바인더양에 따른 접촉각을 측정하였다. MTMS 함량이 증가할수록 접촉각이 커졌다. 따라서 친수성이 줄어든 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 Mn-$TiO_2$ 촉매의 항균성이 매우 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, emission characteristics of volatile odorant species released from urine samples were investigated in relation to two key variables: [1] storage conditions before sampling and [2] incubation conditions during sampling. To this end, 20 offensive odorants were quantified by four different analytical systems and then sorted according to seven functional groups. It is indicated that benzene (B), styrene (S), isobutyl alcohol (i-BuAl), butyl acetate (BuAc), butyraldehyde (BA), isovaleraldehyde (IA), and valeraldehyde (VA) did not contribute to urine odor because their concentration levels were measured below detection limits in all samples. On the other hand, emission concentrations of toluene (T), methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), methyl mercaptan ($CH_3SH$), carbon disulfide ($CS_2$), and ammonia ($NH_3$) were generally higher than other compounds. In terms of odor intensity (OI), $CH_3SH$ and $NH_3$ showed the largest OI values in the range of 2~4. According to t-test (storage approach and urine temperature), the results of T, $CS_2$, and $NH_3$ were statistically distinguished from each other in terms of differences in sampling temperature. Likewise, the emissions of certain odorants from urine samples were affected by changes in sample treatment conditions to a degree.

Plasma-photocatalytic oxidation process was applied in the decomposition of Triethylamine(TEA) and Methyl ethyl ketone(MEK). Plasma reactor was made entirely of pyrex glass and consists of 24mm inner diameter, 1,800mm length and discharge electrode of 0.4mm stainless steel. And initial concentrations of TEA and MEK for plasma-photocatalytic oxidation are 100 ppm. Odor gas samples were taken by gas-tight syringe from a glass sampling bulb which was located at reactor inlet and outlet, and TEA and MEK were determined by GC-FID. For plasma process, the decomposition efficiency of TEA and MEK were evaluated by varying different flowrates and decomposition efficiency of TEA and MEK increased considerably with decreasing treatment flowrates. For photocatalytic oxidation process, also the decomposition efficiency of TEA and MEK increased considerably with decreasing treatment flowrates. The decomposition efficiency of MEK was 57.8％, 34.2％, 18.8％ respectively and the decomposition efficiency of TEA was reached all 100％. This result is higher than that of plasma process only, From this study, the results indicate that plasma-photocatalytic oxidation process is ideal for treatment of TEA and MEK.

Biological exposure indices (BEI) of toluene, perchloroethylene (PCE) and methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) for Korean workers were studied respectively. Environmental exposures in workplace to organic solvent were measured by personal sampling. Blood toluene, blood perchloroethylene, urinary trichloroacetic acid and urinary MEK were determined by headspace gas chromatography. Urinary hippuric acid were determined by HPLC and corrected by creatinine. BEIs for Korean workers were calculated as the levels of determinants which are correspond to permissible exposure limits in Korea. Blood toluene level of 2.2mg/l and urinary hippuric acid level of 1.7g/g creatinine are correspond to an exposure of 100 ppm toluene. Blood PCE concentration of 1.6mg/l and urinary trichloroacetic acid concentration of 2.9mg/l are correspond to an exposure of 50ppm PCE. Urinary MEK concentration of 1.0mg/l is correspond to an exposure of 200ppm of MEK. BEIs for Korean workers determined in this study are very different to ACGIH's BEI as urinary determinants are much lower and blood determinants are much higher than ACGIH's BEI.

A comprehensive profile of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in public spaces is needed for interpreting indoor air measurements. Seasonal differences in profiles are critical for epidemiological study and risk assessment. The purposes of this study were to establish profiles for individual VOCs in 50 indoor public places in Korea and to determine seasonal variations in their concentrations. Air samples were taken during working hours. Seventy-two of the 91 targeted VOCs were identified using multiple standards. Six VOCs detected in all summer and winter samples were toluene, acetone, m,p-xylenes, ethylbenzene, benzene, and styrene. In summer, methyl ethyl ketone and 1-butanol were also found in all samples. In both seasons, the dominant indoor VOCs were toluene, m,p-xylenes, ethylbenzene, acetone, and isopropyl alcohol. Other chemicals associated with gasoline emissions were dominant in summer. Limonene was dominant only in winter due to the consumption of tangerines. The nine VOCs with the highest concentrations comprised 64.8% and 49.6% of the TVOC in summer and winter, respectively. Comparing two types of adsorbent tube, a single adsorbent tube with Tenax-TA had similar detection performance as a double adsorbent tube with Tenax and Carbotrap.

In this study, dye encapsulated microcapsules were produced by polyurethane prepolymer synthesis method using hexamethylene diisocyanate, ethylene glycol and methyl ethyl ketone. The study showed that the average size of microcapsules were $4.697{\mu}m$ in normal distribution. These microcapsules were induced red color by thermochromic fluoran red dye with showing color change as temperature. After the textile finishing of microcapsules, durability of microcapsules were checked as crocking times and lightfastness. The microcapsules were pressed at protrusion of textile weave in 10 crocking times which meant that the microcapsules not fallen off. Lightfastness was acceptable giving rating 4. It means that the polyurethane microcapsules not affect to light durability.

A two-stage bioreactor, which consists of a biotrickling filter module and a biofilter module in series, was investigated for the enhanced treatment of a VOC mixture, toluene and methyl ethyl ketone (MEK). Throughout the experiments, the overall inlet loading rate was maintained at approximately $43g/m^3/hr$, but the inlet ratios of the VOCs were modified. The experimental results showed that the different ratios of the VOC mixture resulted in changes of overall removal efficiencies, elimination capacities (ECs) and microbial accumulation on the surface of each packing material. The ratio of inlet toluene to MEK at 50 : 150 was found to be most effective in terms of the overall removal efficiency, because, at this condition, MEK (i.e., the hydrophilic compound) was mostly removed in the biotrickling filter module and the following biofilter module was used to remove toluene. It was also found that when the inlet loading rate of the VOC mixture was serially increased stepwise within short-term periods, the ECs for toluene dropped significantly but the ECs for MEK increased at the ratio of the VOC mixture. These results implied that substrate interaction and/or substrate preferable utilization might have an effect on the biological removal of each compound in the two-stage bioreactor; therefore, the bioreactor should be operated in the condition where the substrate interaction could be minimized in order to maximize overall performance of the two-stage bioreactor.

통상적으로 코팅가공시 수지의 흐름성을 개선하기 위해서 코팅수지(점도 : 50,000~60,000 Cps)의 점도를 10,000 Cps 이하로 낮추어서 작업을 진행한다. 이때 MEK(Methyl Ethyl Ketone), TOL(Toluene), DMF(Dimethyl Formamide) 등과 같은 유기용제를 사용하여 점도를 조절한다. 본 연구는 기존에 표면처리 코팅용 수지 배합시 유기용제를 사용하는 대신 물을 사용하여 점도 조절이 가능한 표면처리 코팅용 hydrophilic PU 수지를 연구하였다. Prepolymer 법으로 합성한 수지가 One-shot법으로 합성한 수지보다 water dilution 안정성이 우수하며, 친수성 polyol과 소수성 polyol의 비율이 6/4정도가 될 때 water dilution된 수지의 안전성, 투습도 등의 물성이 가장 이상적으로 발현 되는 것을 확인 할수 있었고, 50part의 물과 희석 후 5일 이후에도 상분리가 되지 않음을 확인 할 수 있었다. 개발된 수지의 적용성을 평가한 결과, J-knife를 이용하여 knife over roll 방식으로 $200{\mu}m$의 gap으로 80/120/$140^{\circ}C{\times}10m/min.$의 다단건조 공정으로 진행했을 때 최적의 물성을 얻을 수 있었다.

Vinyl ester (VE) resins, introduced in the late 1960s, have made large strides in reinforced plastics applications as adhesive and matrix materials on their appropriate mechanical performance characteristics in the glassy state. Generally, VE resins are a group of dimethacrylate resins based on bisphenol A type epoxy resin. They exhibit easy handling properties as well as good resistance to most chemical agents due to their mechanical and thermal properties. In this study, the effects of curing methods of vinyl ester resins on gel contents, flexural strength and dynamic mechanical properties were investigated. Thermal curing (room temperature, $80^{\circ}C$) and electron beam curing were used to crosslink a VE resin/styrene complex (65/35 wt%) with methyl ethyl ketone peroxide (MEKPO) as a catalyst and an 8 wt% cobalt naphthenate in styrene solution as a accelerator. For the samples, gel contents as well as flexural strength and dynamic mechanical properties were characterized and compared by soxhlet apparatus, universal testing machine (UTM) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). As a result, the electron-cured VE resin was confirmed as a better condition than those for gel contents, flexural strength and dynamic mechanical properties, respectively.
