The titanate nanotube (TNT) was hydrothermally synthesized in 10 M NaOH aqueous solution at $150^{\circ}C$ for 72 h. Titanate nanotube with high surface area (292 $m^2$/g) is a good candidate as a support for catalytic reaction or organic synthesis. Palladium nanoparticles with an average size of $ca$. 3 nm were well dispersed onto the surface of TNT nanotubes. Palladium loaded catalyst with high surface area shows a highly efficient ${\alpha}$ alkylation of ketones with primary alcohols.

Doping the nanoparticles of Pd, p-$BaTiO_3$, $SiO_2$ and MgO into LCs alters their physical properties such as $K_{ii}$, $\Delta\varepsilon$, ${\Delta}n$, $\gamma_1$ and $T_{NI}$. Except for $K_{33}$, all these parameters decreases and thus bring the reduction of operating voltage and/or response times.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have used as an electron field emitter of the field emission display (FED) due to their characteristics of high-electron emission, rapid response and low power consumption. However, to commercialize the FED with CNT emitter, some fundamental problems regarding life time and emission efficiency have to be solved. In this study, we investigated the metal coated CNT as a field emitter on which metal nanoparticles were coated by chemical modification. Metal nanoparticles, such as Ru, Pd, were synthesized by solution reduction method. The size of the metal nanoparticle has the range of 2 - 5 nm. Surface was modified chemically with the use of ionic surfactant which changed the surface charge of nanoparticles.

네오디뮴 폐자석 침출액으로부터 희유금속인 네오디뮴을 회수하기 위해서는 네오디뮴과 같이 침출되는 철의 부가가치를 높이는 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 네오디뮴과 같이 침출되는 철의 유용자원화를 위한 기초연구로 철 나노분말 제조하는 실험을 수행하였다. 본 연구는 $FeCl_3$ 용액을 철 분말 원료로, 분산제는 $Na_4O_7P_2$와 Polyvinylpyrrolidone를 이용하였고, 환원제로는 $NaBH_4$, 철 나노분말 핵생성 촉진제 시드(seed)로 염화팔라듐을 사용하였다. 제조한 철 나노분말을 XRD, 전자현미경(SEM) 및 PSA 등을 이용하여 분말의 형상 및 크기 등을 분석하였다. 철과 $NaBH_4$의 농도비가 1 : 5이며, 반응시간이 30분 이상인 경우에서 철 분말이 제조되었으며, 이때 철 분말은 구형이었으며, 입도는 약 50 nm ~ 100 nm 크기였다. 분산제 $Na_4O_7P_2$의 경우 100 mg/L에서 철이온의 제타포텐셜이 음의 값을 가지므로 100 mg/L로 일정하게 하고, PVP와 Pd의 농도를 다양하게 하였을 경우, $FeCl_3$와 PVP와 Pd의 질량비 1 : 4 및 1 : 0.001에서, 분산이 양호하고, 입도 100 nm 크기인 철 나노분말을 합성하였다.

팔라듐과 금 나노입자 등이 첨착된 높은 비표면적을 갖는 Polyacrylonitrile (PAN)계 활성탄소섬유(ACF: Activated Carbon Fiber)를 제조하였다. 여러 첨착 ACF에 대하여 BET, FE-SEM, TEM, XPS 등으로 비표면적과 기공부피, 미세구조, 시간에 따른 산소관능기의 표면변화를 관찰하였으며 $SO_2$에 대한 흡착성능을 연구하였다. 그 결과 첨착과정으로 인하여 총 기공부피 대비 미세기공 부피는 95.5%에서 30.5~43.7%로 대부분 감소하였으며, 산소관능기의 표면변화는 대기중에서 시간이 경과함에 따라 나노입자보다 금속염의 산소관능기 변화가 컸음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 Au 나노입자와 금속염을 첨착한 ACF의 $SO_2$ 파과시간은 무첨착 ACF에 비하여 크게 변하지 않았으나, 100 ppm의 Pd 나노입자를 첨착한 ACF는 $SO_2$ 파과시간이 880 s로 흡착성능이 우수하였다. 이러한 결과로 볼 때 $SO_2$ 흡착성능은 시간에 따른 산소관능기의 표면 변화와 연관성이 있다고 볼 수 있으며, PAN계 활성탄소섬유에 적정한 농도의 Pd 나노입자 첨착은 촉매작용으로 인하여 $SO_2$ 흡착 성능을 증가시키는 것으로 판단된다

The second-order scattering (SOS) phenomenon of the interaction of Pd nanoparticles with protein was reported and a simple, sensitive, palladium nanoparticle-based assay for trace amount of protein with SOS technique was developed. The SOS intensities were significantly enhanced due to the interaction of Pd nanoparticles with bovine serum albumin (BSA) or human serum albumin (HSA) at pH 3.5 or 4.0, respectively. The maximum SOS peak appeared at 260/520 nm (λex/λem). The optimal experiment conditions, affecting factors and the influence of some coexisting substances were checked. The SOS intensity increased proportionally with the increase of Pd concentration below 3.0 × 10?5 mol·L?1, while declined gradually above 4.0 × 10?5 mol·L?1. BSA within the range of 0.01-2.6 μg·mL?1 and HSA of 0.01-1.7 μg·mL?1 can be detected with this method and the detection limits were 2.3 and 11.2 ng·mL?1, respectively. The method was successfully applied to the quantitative detection of total protein content in human serum samples with the maximum relative standard deviation (RSD) lower than 2.6% and the recoveries over the range of 99.5-100.5%.

Objective: To observe the efficacy and toxicity of nanoparticle albumin bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) plus platinum agent (cisplatin or carboplatin) as first line treatment for stage III/IV squamous non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: Forty chemotherapy naive patients with stage III/IV squamous NSCLC received nab-paclitaxel $125mg/m^2$ on day 1 and day 8, cisplatin $75mg/m^2$ on day 1, carboplatin area under the concentration-time curve of 5 (AUC=5) on day 1. One cycle of treatment was 3 weeks, and at least two were completed in each case. Results: Of the 40 patients who participated in the study, 25 achieved partial responses (PR), 12 reached a stage of stable disease (SD), and 3 suffered progressive disease (PD). The overall response rate (ORR) was 62.5% and the disease control rate (DCR) was 92.5%. Of the 20 patients without surgery or radiotherapy, 10 achieved PR, 7 reached a stage of SD, and 3 PD. The ORR was 50.0% and the DCR was 85.0%. The median progression-free survival time (PFS) of patients without surgery or radiotherapy was 5.0 months. Of the 20 patients receiving surgery or radiotherapy, 15 had PR and 5 p had SD, with an ORR of 75.0% and a DCR of 85.0%. Specifically, the DDP arm demonstrated a significantly higher ORR than the CBP arm (100%vs 54.5%, P<0.05). Common treatment related adverse events were myelosuppression, gastrointestinal response, baldness and neurotoxicity, most of which were grade 1 to 2. Conclusion: Nab-paclitaxel plus platinum agent (cisplatin or carboplatin) is effective as a first-line chemotheraphy for stage III/IV squamous NSCLC, and its adverse effects are tolerable.

Nanometal alloy catalysts have been found to significantly increase catalytic efficiency, compared to the monometallic counterparts. This enhancement can be attributed to various alloying effects: i) the existence of uniquemixed-metal surface sites [the so called ensemble (geometric) effect]; ii) electronic state changes due to metal-metal interactions [the so called ligand (electronic) effect]; and iii) strain caused by lattice mismatch between the alloy components [the socalled strain effect]. In addition, the presence of low-coordination surface atoms and preferential exposure of specific facets [(111), (100), (110)] in association with the size and shape of nanoparticle catalysts [the so called shape-size-facet effect] can be another important factor for modifying the catalytic activity. However, mechanisms underlying the alloying effect still remain unclear owing to the difficulty of direct characterization. Computational approaches, particularly the prediction using first-principles density functional theory (DFT), can be a powerful and flexible alternative for unraveling the role of alloying effects in catalysis since those can give us quantitative insights into the catalytic systems. In this talk, I will present the underlying principles (such as atomic arrangement, facet, local strain, ligand interaction, and effective atomic coordination number at the surface) that govern catalytic reactions occurring on Pd-based alloys using the first-principles calculations. This work highlights the importance of knowing how to properly tailor the surface reactivity of alloy catalysts for achieving high catalytic performance.

무효소 혈당센서는 높은 선택성과 민감성을 가지고 저비용으로 체내 혈당(glucose)을 검출할 수차세대 기술이다. 현재 시판되고 있는 혈당센서는 당을 산화시켜주는 당산화효소와 전극과 효소사이에 전자 전달을 원활하게 해주는 산화/환원 매개체를 이용하여 효소센서로 제작된다. 그러나 이러한 효소센서는 pH, 온도, 습도, 화학적 독성물질 등에 영향을 많이 받아 안정성이 떨어지고, 제작에 비용이 많이 드는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문은 위와 같은 단점을 해결하고자 환원제인 당에 의하여 환원되는 니켈 나노입자를 전기화학적 흡착방법을 이용하여 산화 인듐 주석 전극 (ITO)에 고정시켰다. 고정된 니켈 나노입자는 전극의 표면적을 넓혀 신호를 증폭시키는 효과를 가지고 있으며, 당에 의하여 계속적으로 니켈이 환원됨에 따라 전극 반응에서는 촉매산화전류 반응으로 나타낸다. 당의 농도에 따라서 선형적으로 감응 할 수 있는 최적 조건의 니켈 나노입자를 이용하여 혈당센서를 제작하였다. 또한 체내에 존재하는 방해 인자인 아스코브산의 간섭을 억제하기 위해 음이온 고분자의 표면처리를 통하여 상대적으로 당에 선택적으로 감응하도록 하였다. 제작된 전극을 통하여 당 농도 별 산화 촉매 전류를 순환 전압 전류 법으로 측정한 결과 650 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl)에서 최대 전기적 신호가 발생되었으며, 포도당 0~6.15 mM 의 농도범위에서 전기적 신호가 선형 증가함을 확인할 수 있었다.
