Objectives: The study aims to examine the variation over roughly the past 10 years (from 2008 to 2018) in the estimated daily dietary Pb intake (Pb-D) based on the variations of daily intake amount and Pb content in respective food groups. The following factors were considered: (1) variation of estimated value of Pb-D, (2) Pb contents in each food group and (3) the most influential food group for dietary Pb intake. Methods: Estimated values of Pb-D were taken from food consumption by the food groups reported in the Korean National Health and Nutrition Survey and the Pb content of each food group as reported in 19 previous publications. Variation from 2008 to 2018 of Pb intake was calculated from daily intake amount and Pb content in each food group. Results: The survey showed that main Pb intake sources were the food groups 'meats and poultry' and 'fish and shellfish'. These food groups showed gradually increased Pb exposure from 2008 to 2018. Estimated daily Pb intake was 42.18 to 57.68 ㎍/day for men and 30.97 to 42.54 ㎍/day for women. Both men and women showed slightly increased dietary Pb intake from 2008 to 2018. The food groups 'meats and poultry' and 'fish and shellfish' proved the highest Pb intake food groups. Estimated Pb intake from 'meats and poultry' was 8.47 to 12.98 ㎍/day and that of 'fish and shellfish' was 5.63 to 10.10 ㎍/day. Conclusion: Over the past ten years, daily Pb intake has slightly increased in men and women. The food groups 'meats and poultry' and 'fish and shellfish' might be the main variation factors of Pb intake.

Addition of various acids or organic compounds to the electrolyte solution during the electrodeposition of $PbO_2$ on titanium madras substrate strongly affected performance of the deposited $PbO_2$ layer. Results of X-ray diffractometry ascertained that ${\beta}-PbO_2$ was deposited in acidic electrolyte. Among additives used in this experiment, $PbO_2$ with a high oxygen overvoltage was electrodeposited when sodium lauryl sulfate was added, and $PbO_2$ with a lower chlorine overvoltage was electrodeposited when polyethylene glycol was added to the electrolyte solution. The oxygen and chlorine overvoltage of $PbO_2$ was strongly dependent on the stirring provided during the electrodeposition experiment. It was observed by the SEM results that the $PbO_2$ grains deposited when stirring was not provided during the electrodeposition have larger than $PbO_2$ grains deposited by stirring. In the $PbO_2$ deposition under acidic electrolyte, the oxygen overvoltage increased with larger $PbO_2$ grains and the chlorine overvoltage decreased with smaller $PbO_2$ grains. The optimal current efficiency of $PbO_2$ in the presence of perchloric acid was observed at $Pb(NO_3)_2$ 560g/l, $65{\sim}70^{\circ}C$, and pH>1.

Sn-Pb계 솔더는 용접, 접합성, 가격등과, 작업성이 양호하기 때문에 전자기기 실장에 사용되어 왔고, 모든 실장장치도 Sn-Pb 솔더용으로 만들어져 있다. 그러나 솔더중의 Pb는 사용할 수 없다는 분위기가 점차 확산되고 있다. 이것은 Pb가 인체에 들어가면 중추신경을 손상시킨다고 알고 있기 때문이다. Pb의 사용 규제 조치에 대해 서는 10년전 부터 미국 국회에 몇번이나 상정된 바가 있지만, Pb피해에 대해서 입증 할 수 없다는 이유로 입안이 되지 않았지만, 실제는 대체합금이 없기 때문에 입안이 되지 않은 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 앞으로 5년 이내에 유예기간을 두고 2000년 이후 부터 사용을 규제할 것으로 알려져 있다. 또한 북유럽에는 Pb 솔더 금지법이 의회에 제출되어 있는 것으로 알려져 있고, 곧 OECD에서도 상정될 예정이다. 결국 지구상의 환경보호 차원에서 앞으로 Pb사용이 규제될 것임은 틀립이 없다. 따라서 Pb 가 함유되어 있지 않은 솔더의 개발은 각나라 마다 핫 이슈임에 틀림이 없다. 미국 AT&T 등에서 이미 Pb Free 솔더와 공정개발에 들어가 특허화하고 있고, 특히 유럽은 연구 개발이 왕성하여 Pb Free 솔더로서 실장한 핸더폰을 생산하는 실적까지 있다. 일본도 이미 대학, 연구소, 회사로 구성된 Pb Free 솔더 연구회가 구성되어 솔더개발 에 박차를 가하고 있다. 국내에 기업체, 연구소, 학교 등에서는 이러한 긴박감을 느 끼지 못하는 것으로 사료된다. 본 해설에서는 Sn-Pb 공정계 대체 솔더인 Pb Free 솔더 의 개발 방향과 문제점을 정리하여 기술하고자 한다.

Influence of low molecular weight polybutadiene (liquid PB) treated with maleic anhydride on properties of a silica-filled SBR compounds was studied. Silica dispersion was improved by adding liquid PB. The liquid PB treated with maleic anhydride (liquid MAPB) was found to be more effective for the improvement of silica dispersion than the liquid PB without maleic anhydride (liquid NPB). Viscosity of the SBR compound decreased by adding the liquid PB. The crosslink density decreased with increase of the liquid PB content and the cure rate became slower with increasing the liquid PB content. Considering the experimental results, it was believed that addition of small amount of the liquid PB (less than 5 phr) was desirable to improve properties of silica-filled SBR compounds.

This study determined the effect of Lespedeza Caneata extract on the livers and kidneys of lead-administered mice. The experimental groups were divided into a normal group, Pb 4W group, Pb-LC 4W group, Pb 8W group, and Pb-LC 8W group. The normal group was supplied single distilled water, and the pb group was provided distilled water in which lead acetate was dissolved at 1,000 ppm. The Pb-LC group was provided with lead as drinking water, and the Lespedeza Caneata was orally medicated at a concentration of 500 mg/kg daily. AST, ALT, and BUN enzyme activities and histological experiments on the livers and kidneys resulted in the following conclusions. AST, ALT, and BUN activities increased in the experimental group compared to the normal group and decreased more in the Pb-LC group than the pb group during the same period. The histological results reveal that portions of the livers and kidneys were deformed in the Pb 4W group, and most of the Pb 8W group experienced necrosis and deformation. pb-LC4W and Pb-LC 8W groups experienced less deformation than the Pb 4W and Pb 8W groups. During the same period, the Pb-LC group experienced less histological changes than the Pb group. These results suggest that Lespedeza Caneata extract may have some protective effect on hepatic tissue and renal tissue damage with lead-administered in mice.

This study was performed to see the effects of lead poisoning and dietary protein levels(6, 15 and 40 % casein diets) on growth, protein and lipid metabolisms in growing rats. It was also investigated whether the high protein intake would alleviate lead toxicity by decreasing Pb absorption and/or increasing Pb excretion. The results obtained were summarized as follows ; 1) Weight gain, F.E.R liver weight, weight and length of bone in Pb-administered groups were lower than in Pb-free groups. However, these values in the 40% casein diet group with Pb were increased to the level in 15% casein diet group without Pb. 2) Hematocrt and hemoglobin content in blood were lower in Pb -adminstered groups than in Pb free groups. Especially, these levels were lower in 6% casein diet group with Pb than in any other group. 3) Plasma protein level in th e 40% casein casein diet group was the highest of all groups and those of Pb-administered groups tended to be lower than those of Pb-free groups. Plasma lipid and cholesterol levels were increased with decreasing dietary protein level, and these levels were higher in the animals exposed to Pb than in free groups.4) Total liver protein, lipid and cholesterol contents were increased with increasing dietary protein level, and these contents were lower in Pb-administered groups than in Pb free groups. 5) Fecal Pb excretion was not different between 6 and 40% casein diet groups. However, urinary Pb excretion was higher in the 40% casein diet group than in the 6% casein diet group. Above results suggest that, in exposing to the Pb pollution, sufficient protien intake must be recommended. High protein intake seemed to alleviate lead toxicity by increasing urinary Pb excretion.

The melting temperature and critical temperature (Tc) of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ with deferent content impurities of PbO and $BaPbO_3$ were studied. When the PbO was used as addition in $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$, although the melting point could be reduced, the superconductivity (the transition wide, ${\Delta}T_c$) became poor. From the XRD pattern of the sintered mixture of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ and PbO it was known that there is a reaction between $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ and PbO, and the product is $BaPbO_3$. In the process of the reaction the superconducting phase of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ was decreased and in the sample $BaPbO_3$ became the main phase. Therefore the superconductivity was reduced. $BaPbO_3$ was chosen as the impurity for the comparative study. The single phase $BaPbO_3$ was synthesized by the simple way from both mixtures of $BaCO_3$ and PbO, $BaCO_3$ and $PbO_2$. Deferent contents of $BaPbO_3$ (10%, 20%, 30%) were added in the $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$. By the phase analysis in the XRD patterns it was proved that there were not reactions between $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ and $BaPbO_3$. When $BaPbO_3$ was used as impurity in $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ the superconductivity was much better than PbO as impurity in $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$. But the melting point of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ with $BaPbO_3$ could not be found when the temperature was lower than $1000^{\circ}C$ in the DTA measurement.

Biosorption of Pb was evaluated for plants, Persicaria chinensis, Oenanthe javanica and Salvinia natnas. The adsorption equilibrium was reached in about 1hr for Pb and the highest adsorption capacity was 150mg Pb/g biomass at S.natans. Pb adsorption process showed a pseudo second order irreversible reaction. The highest initial adsorption rate was 2000mg pb/g biomass/hr at O.javanica. In spite of pH variation, Pb adsorption capacity by was selection, Pb was selectively adsorved. The selectivity of mixture solution showed the adsorption order of Pb>Cu>Cr>Cd. The Pb adsorption capacity of P. chinensis pretreated with NaOH was increased by 30% in comparison with that of no treatment.

It is investigated that the determination of the correlation between the change of microstructure and electrical properties. Yttria is added to the compositiojn of rhombohedral region in Pb(Mg1/3Nb2./3)O3-PbTiO3-PbZrO3 ternary system. Average grian size, lattice parameters and distribution of yttrium are characterized by XRD, SEM and EDS. Electrical properties are determined by measurement of Curie temperature, piezoelectric properties and hysteresis loops. The results are as follows; 1. Both lattice parameters, a and ${\alpha}$, are changed by addition of yttria to the composition of rhomboheadral region in Pb(Mg1/3Nb2./3)O3-PbTiO3-PbZrO3 ternary system and Curie temperature is proportional to the values at (90-${\alpha}$).
