Anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) which prepared with two-step anodizing method (with dissimilar solutions) was used as a template to fabricate highly ordered, free standing metal nano-rods. AAO nano-template technique can realize self-organized hexagonal pore structure with nanometer dimension size, it's easy to control pore diameter, length and density by varying anodizing conditions. Ni and Ni/Fe/Cu multi-metal layer nanorods were electrochemically deposited into AAO nano-template by AC voltage in simple sulfate solutions.. The properties of samples are tested by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission microscopy (FE-SEM).

다양한 형태의 Polysulfone 막을 MBR공정에 적용하기 위해 제조하였다. 특히 제조공정에 있어서 여러 형태의 에테르형 알코올을 사용 도프용액에 첨가시킴으로써, 공경크기에 미치는 영향력을 조사하였다. 본 연구에서는 공경의 크기는 첨가된 첨가제의 끓는점에 의한 영향력보다는 그들 자체(첨가된 첨가제)의 분자구조에 의한 확산에 더 큰 영향력을 받고 있음을 보여주었다. 분자적으로 methoxy ($CH_3$-O-) < secondary propanol ($-CH_2$-CH(OH)$-CH_3$) < ethoxy ($CH_3-CH_2-O-$)의 순으로 공경크기가 커지고 그에 따라 순수투과도 또한 커짐을 보여주었다. 이러한 현상은 첨가된 용매가 분자적으로 ether형 알코올의 bulky한 정도에 따라 공경의 형성이 다른 형태로 나타나고 있음을 보여주고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 형태의 ether형 alcohol를 통하여 바라고자하는 형태(평균 pore size 0.1~0.4 ${\mu}m$)의 MF (microfiltration)막을 제조할 수 있었으며, MBR (membrane bio-reactor)에 적용한 결과 2달 동안 안정되게 운전되었다.

Activated carbons (ACs) have been used as electrode materials of electric double-layer capacitors (EDLC) due to their high specific surface areas (SSA), stability, and ecological advantages. In order to make high-energy-density ACs for EDLC, petroleum pitch (PP) pre-carbonized at $500-1000^{\circ}C$ in $N_2$ gas for 1 h was used as the electrode material of the EDLC after KOH activation. As the pre-carbonization temperature increased, the SSA, pore volume and gravimetric capacitance tended to decrease, but the crystallinity and electrode density tended to increase, showing a maximum volumetric capacitance at a medium carbonization temperature. Therefore, it was possible to control the crystalline structure, SSA, and pore structure of AC by changing the pre-carbonization temperature. Because the electrode density increased with increasing of the pre-carbonization temperature, the highest volumetric capacitance of 28.4 F/cc was obtained from the PP pre-carbonized at $700^{\circ}C$, exhibiting a value over 150% of that of a commercial AC (MSP-20) for EDLC. Electrochemical activation was observed from the electrodes of PP as they were pre-carbonized at high temperatures above $700^{\circ}C$ and then activated by KOH. This process was found to have a significant effect on the specific capacitance and it was demonstrated that the higher charging voltage of EDLC was, the greater the electrochemical activation effect was.

PMMA light guiding plate with nano-sized pattern was fabricated using anodized aluminum oxide membrane as a template for nano imprint lithography. Nano-sized pore arrays were prepared by the self-organization processes of the anodic oxidation using the aluminum plate with 99.999% purity. Since the aluminum plate has a rough surface, the aluminum plate with thickness of 1mm was anodized after the pre-treatments of chemical polishing, and electrochemical polishing. The surface morphology of the alumina obtained by the first anodization process was controlled by the concentration of electrochemical solution during the first anodization. The surface morphology of the alumina was also changed according to temperature of the solution during chemical polishing performed after first anodization. The pore widening process was employed for obtaining the one-channel with flat surface and height of the channel because the pores of the alumina membrane prepared by the fixed voltage method shows the structure of two-channel with rough surface. It is shown from SPM results that the nano-sized pattern on PMMA light guiding plate fabricated by nano imprint lithography method was well transferred from that of anodized aluminum oxide template.

점토는 물과 같이 극성이 큰 유체가 존재할 때 매우 낯은 투수계수를 갖게된다. 따라서 극성이 매우 낮은 탄화수소계연료나 할로겐화 유기용제등은 간극수(pore water)를 밀어내지 못하기 때문에 점토공극내로 이동할 수 없다. 최근들어 대기오염 저감대책의 하나로 알콜이나 MTBE(methyl-tert-butyl ether)등과 같은 가솔린 산소첨가제의 사용량이 늘어나고 있는 추세에 있다. 이들 산소첨가제는 극성을 띠고 있으며 물에 대한 용해도가 매우 높기 때문에 간극수를 교체하여 가솔린이나 유기용제등의 점토층내 이동을 촉진시킬 가능성을 갖고 있다. 본 연구에서는 가솔린-알콜 혼합연료(gasohol)의 압밀점토층 내에서의 이동을 실험적으로 살펴보았다. 카올린슬러리를 압밀시켜 제조한 점토층에 가솔린, 알콜, 그리고 물의 혼합액을 152 Pa하에서 접촉시켰다. 점토층내로의 유체이동은 교체된 간극유체유량을 측정함으로써, 그리고 현상학적인 관찰은 핵자기 공명상(magnetic resonance image; MRI)을 측정해봄으로 추적하였다. 또한 점토시료의 구조는 environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM)를 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과를 볼 때 가솔린만 존재시 접촉 14일 이후에도 물로 포화된 점토층내로 가솔린이 이동하지 못한 반면 gasohol 혼합체는 접촉후 단 20분이내에 점토층을 완전 통과하여 탄화수소계연료에 첨가된 알콜이 점토층내로의 이동을 한층 강화하는 것으로 나타났다. Gasohol과 접촉시 이러한 점토의 투수계수 증가는 알콜로 인해 점토의 공극구조가 붕괴되어 더 큰 공극을 형성시켰기 때문인 것으로 판단되었다. 또한 공극직경(pore diameter)이 증가함으로 gasohol이 간극수를 교체하는데 필요한 모세압력이 감소되어 gasohol이 쉽게 점토증을 이동하게 되는 것이다.

Statement of problem. The success of osseointegration can be enhanced with an implant that has improved surface characteristics. Anodic oxidation is one of the surface modifying method to achieve osseointegration. Voltage of anodic oxidation can change surface characteristics and cell activity Purpose. This study was performed to evaluate MG63 cell responses such as affinity, proliferation and to compare surface characteristics of anodic oxidized titanium in various voltage. Material and method. The disks for cell culture were fabricated from grade 3 commercially pure titanium,1 m in thickness and 12 mm in diameter. Surfaces of 4 different roughness were prepared. Group 1 had a machined surface, used as control. Group 2 was anodized under 220 V, group 3 was anodized under 300 V and group 4 was anodized under 320 V. The microtopography of specimens was observed by scanning electron microscope (JSM-840A, JEOL, Japan) and atomic force microscope(Autoprobe CP, Park Scientific Instrument, USA). The surface roughness was measured by confocal laser scanning microscope(Pascal, LSM5, Zeiss, Germany). The crystal structure of the titanium surface was analyzed with x-ray diffractometer(D8 advanced, Broker, Germany). MG63 osteoblast-like cells were cultured on these specimens. The cell morpholgy was observed by field emission electron microscope(Hitachi S-4700, Japan). The cell metabolic and proliferative activity was evaluated by MTT assay Results and conclusion. With in limitations of this in vitro study, the following conclusions were drawn. 1. In anodizing titanium surface, we could see pores which did not show in control group. In higher anodizing voltage, pore size was increased. 2. In anodizing titanium surface, we could see anatase. In higher anodizing voltage, thicker oxide layer increased crystallinity(anatase, anatase and rutile mixed). 3. MG63 cells showed more irregular, polarized and polygonal shape and developed more lamellipodi in anodizing group as voltage increased. 4. The activity of cells in MTT assay increased significantly in group 3 and 4 in comparison with group 1 and 2. However, there was no difference between group 3 and 4 at P<0.05. Proliferation of MG63 cells increased significantly in pore size($3-5.5{\mu}m$) of group 3 and 4 in comparison with in pore size($0.2-1{\mu}m$ ) of group 2.

Highly ordered gold nanodot arrays have been successfully obtained by vacuum evaporation using an anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) as a shadow mask. An AAO mask with the thickness of 300 um was prepared through an anodization process. The structure of the nanodot arrays was studied by a field- emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) equipped with an energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS). A tapping mode atomic force microscope (AFM) was employed for studies of height and phase feature. The nanodot arrays were precisely reproduced corresponding to the hexagonal structure of the AAO mask in a large area. In the gold nanodot arrays, the average diameter of dots is approximately the same as the AAO pore size in the range from 70 um to 80 nm and 100 nm center-to-center spacing. EDS analysis indicated that the gold dots were almost entirely consisted of gold, a highly demanded material.

We present a method of fabricating poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) porous microfibers using a pore template. PLGA microfibers were synthesized using a glass capillary tube in a poly-(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) microfluidic chip. Gelatin solution was used as a porous template to prepare pores in microfibers. Two phases of PLGA solutions in different solvents-DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) and DCM (dichloromethane)-were used to control the porosity and strength of the porous microfibers. The porosity of the PLGA microfibers differed depending on the ratio of flow rates in the two phases. The porous structure was formed in a spiral shape on the microfiber. The porous structure of the microfiber is expected to improve transfer of oxygen and nutrients, which is important for cell viability in tissue engineering.

Commercial pure iron powder and iron powder of coated 0.45% phosphorus were mixed with graphite powder in dry mixer to control carbon content from 0 wt% to 0.8 wt%. Mixed powder was pressed in the mould under the pressure of 510 MPa. Compacts were sintered at 118$0^{\circ}C$ for 40 min. in cracked ammonia gaseous atmosphere. Some of these sintered specimens were quenched in oil, and tempered in Ar gas. All of these specimens were investigated for microstructure, density and hardness in relation to coated phosphorus and carbon content. The results obtained were as follows: (1) The microstructure of the sintered speciments revealed that the amount of pearlite was increased with increasing C content but decreased by P-addition. (2) The P-addition affected the microstructure of pores in which the pore shape became round and its mean size was decreased by P-addition. (3) After tempering of sintered specimens the structure of pearlite was changed from fine structure to coarse one in P added specimen. (4) Hardness was higher in P added specimens.
