The paper considers a theoretical model for the study of the process of transfer of sulfate ions in saturated porous media - mineral composites. In its turn, the model treats diffusion of sulfate ions into cement based composites, accounting for simultaneous effects such as filling of micro-capillaries with ions and chemical products and liquid push out of them. The proposed numerical algorithm enables one to account for those simultaneous effects, as well as to model the diffusive behavior of separate sections of the considered volume, such as inert fillers. The cases studied illustrate the capabilities of the proposed model and those of the algorithm developed to study diffusion, considering the specimen complex configuration. Computations show that the theoretical assumptions enable one to qualitatively estimate the experimental evidence and the capabilities of the studied composite. The results found can be used to both assess the sulfate corrosion in saturated systems and predict and estimate damage of structures built of cement-based mineral composites.

Single sound absorbers such as porous materials, panels, and Helmholts resonators have limited performance with some extents of frequency region. For example, porous materials do not attenuate low frequency sounds, while panels do not absorb high frequency sounds. Composite absorption structure with coverings, porous materials, and air gaps are an alternative for wide band sound absorption. Slits, panels, perforated panels are those materials for coverings, glass wool, mineral wool, polyester, and polyurethane are frequently used porous materials. Air gap between the porous material and background surface is one of major factors which governs the absorption characteristics of composite absorption structures, especially in the low frequency area. Calculations and measurements show that the absorption coefficients of composite absorption structure, in mid and low frequency bands, are getting higher with increased air gaps. Perforated panels rather than slits and panels are good coverings with higher number as far as absorption coefficient is concerned. Perforated panels with porous materials and 37 cm of air gaps in background have high absorption coefficients for all frequency bands, above 0.7 to 1.0. All measurements are performed in reverberation chamber, Mokpo National University, according to ISO 354 and ISO 3382.

This paper reports the facile synthesis of microlamella-structured porous copper (Cu)-oxide-based electrode and its potential application as an advanced anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Nanowire-like Cu oxide, which is created by a simple thermal oxidation process, is radially and uniformly formed on the entire surface of Cu foam that has been fabricated using a combination of water-based slurry freezing and sintering (freeze casting). Compared to the Cu foil with a Cu oxide layer grown under the same processing conditions, the Cu foam anode with 63% porosity exhibits over twice as much capacity as the Cu foil (264.2 vs. 131.1 mAh/g at 0.2 C), confirming its potential for use as an anode electrode for LIBs.

Permeability-analyzing methods commonly involve small-scale drilling, such as pumping or slug test, but it is difficult to identify overall distribution of permeability of the entire target sites due to high cost and time requirement. Spectral induced polarization (SIP) method is known to be capable of providing distributions of both the porosity and the pore size, the two major parameters determining permeability of the porous medium. The relationship between SIP variables and permeability has been studied to identify the hydrological characteristics of target sites. Kozeny-Carman formula has been improved through many experiments to better predict fluid permeability with electrical properties. In this work, the permeability prediction techniques based on SIP data were presented in accordance with the hydrogeological and electrical characteristics of a porous medium. Following the summary of the techniques, various models and related laboratory experiments were analyzed and examined. In addition, the field applicability of the prediction model was evaluated by field case analysis.

Spherical mesoporous silica particles, of which main pore diameter was 3.8 nm, were successfully prepared by spray pyrolysis from aqueous silicic acid. The effect of precursor concentration, reaction temperature, and the addition of urea and PEG on the particle diameter and pore properties such as pore diameter, total pore volume, and specific surface area were investigated by using FE-SEM, particle size analyzer, and nitrogen absorption-desorption analysis. With an increase of the precursor concentration from 0.2 M to 0.7 M, the average particle diameter, total pore volume, and specific surface area of the porous silica particles increased from 0.56 to $0.96\;{\mu}m$, 0.434 to $0.486\;cm^3/g$, 467.8 to $610.4\;m^2/g$, respectively. Within the temperature range $(600\;^{\circ}C{\sim}800\;^{\circ}C)$, there was no significant difference in the pore diameter, total pore volume, and specific surface area. In addition, the addition of urea as an expansion aid led to slight increases in particle diameter, pore diameter, and specific surface area. However, when the polyethylene glycol (PEG) as an organic template was used, the total pore volume of porous particles increased dramatically.

토양개량방법의 하나로서 다공성 소성 과립체를 토양에 사용하는 방법을 적용하고자 하였다. 석탄폐석을 토양개량제의 원료로 사용하면 자열소성방법에 의해 저비용으로 과립체를 생산할 수 있고, 더불어 국내에 대량으로 적치되어 있는 석탄폐석을 활용할 수 있는 방안도 될 것임을 착안하여, 석탄폐석을 분쇄, 과립하고 자열소성방법으로 소성하여 과립(pellet)을 제조한 후 이의 다공체로서의 특성과 수분보유특성, pH등을 확인하였다. 고정탄소량이 약 28%인 시료 HCR을 고령토와 1:4의 무게비(20%)로 혼합하여 제조한 과립과 고정탄소가 약 9.66%인 LCR시료만을 사용한 과립을 자열소성한 결과, 별도의 가열에너지의 공급 없이 최대온도 $1200^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 연속적인 소성이 가능하였다. 이렇게제조한 과립체를 고령토만 사용하여 제조한 일반 소성 점토과립과 비교하였을 때 평균공극의 크기가 커졌음이 확인되었다. 이렇게 변화된 공극의 특성으로 인해 HCR과 LCR 과립의 내부에 흡수된 수분이 kaolin 과립에 비해 더 낮은 potential에서 방출되었고, 식물이 더 이용하기 쉬운 상태로 수분이 보유됨을 확인하였다. 그리고 자열소성한 과립은 kaolin 과립에 비해 높은 포장용수량과 유효수분의 값을 나타내었다. 포장용수량은 HCR과 LCR 과립이 각각 47.64, 38.43mL/100g값을 나타내었고, 유효수분의 양은 각각 38.39과 28.49mL/100g으로 나타났다. 자열소성한 과립의 pH는 6~8로서 토양에 활용이 가능함을 확인하였다.

Aerosol templating 법을 이용하여 두 종류의 출발물질 용액($TiO_2$ 나노분말/PS 콜로이드 혼합용액 및 TTIP/PS 혼합용액)으로부터 mesopore 및 macropore를 동시에 가지는 다공성 $TiO_2$ 나노구조체 분말을 제조하였다. $TiO_2$에 대한 PS 분말의 혼합비 및 반응기 온도가 다공성 나노구조체 분말의 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. $TiO_2$ 나노분말을 출발 물질로 사용한 경우, $PS/TiO_2$ 무게 혼합비를 0.79에서 1.31로 증가시킴에 따라 macropore의 증가가 SEM을 통하여 관찰되었으며 비표면적과 mesopore volume은 각각 $31.6m^2/g$에서 $39.1m^2/g$으로, $0.068cm^3/g$에서 $0.89cm^3/g$으로 증가하였다. TTIP 전구체를 사용한 경우, 동일조건에서 제조한 분말의 비표면적 및 mesopore volume이 각각 67% 및 75% 감소하였다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate effect of platelet rich plasma on the treatment of Grade II furcation involvement, with and without porous resorbable calcium carbonate($Biocoral^{(R)}$)in humans by digital subtraction radiography. 15 teeth(control group) were treated with porous resorbable calcium carbonate($Biocoral^{\(R)}$), and 15 teeth(test group) were treated with porous resorbable calcium carbonate($Biocoral^{(R)}$) and Platelet Rich Plasma. The change of bone density was assessed by digital subtraction radiography in this study. The change of mineral content by as much as 5%(vol) could be perceived in the subtracted images. The change of mineral content was assessed in the method that two radiographs are put into computer program to be overlapped and the previous image is subtracted by the later one. Both groups were statistically analyzed by Wilcoxon signed Ranks Test and Mann-whitney Test using SPSS program(5% significance level). The results were as follows: 1. In test group, the radiolucency in 3 months after surgry were significantly increased than 1 month after surgery(p<0.05). 2. In test group, there were no significant difference between 1 month after surgery and 6 months after surgery(p>0.05). 3. In test group, the radiopacity in 6 months after surgery were significantly increased than 3 months after surgery(p<0.05). 4. In control group, the radiolucency in 3 months and 6 months after surgery were significantly increased than 1 month after surgery(p<0.05). 5. In control group, the radiopacity in 6 months after surgery were significantly increased than 3 months after surgery(p<0.05). 6. There were no significant difference between test group and control group at 1 month, 3 months after surgery, but radiopacity in test group were significantly increased than control group at 6 months after surgery(p<0.05). In conclusion, Platelet Rich Plasma can enhance bone density.
