Pd-Ag alloy membranes have attracted a great deal of attention for their use in hydrogen purification and separation due to their high theoretical permeability, infinite selectivity and chemical compatibility with hydro-carbon containing gas streams. For commercial application, Pd-based membranes for hydrogen purification and separation need not only a high perm-selectivity but also a stable long-term durability. However, it has been difficult to fabricate thin, dense Pd-Ag alloy membranes on a porous stainless steel metal support with surface pores free and a stable diffusion barrier for preventing metallic diffusion from the porous stainless steel support. In this study, thin Pd-Ag alloy membranes were prepared by advanced Pd/Ag/Pd/Ag/Pd multi-layer sputter deposition on the modified porous stainless steel support using rough polishing/$ZrO_2$ powder filling and micro-polishing surface treatment, and following Ag up-filling heat treatment. Because the modified Pd-Ag alloy membranes using rough polishing/$ZrO_2$ powder filling method demonstrate high hydrogen permeability as well as diffusion barrier efficiency, it leads to the performance improvement in hydrogen perm-selectivity. Our membranes, therefore, are expected to be applicable to industrial fields for hydrogen purification and separation owing to enhanced functionality, durability and metal support/Pd alloy film integration.

Durability of instrument is one of the most important factor to ensure accurate treatment and decrease failure for the orthopedic surgical operation. Normally, a set-screw driver tip has been processed with hard coating for their higher durability and wear resistance. And several surface modification methods were obtained such as titanium nitride (TiN) coating, diamond like carbon coating, other nitriding, and etc. In this study, we have surface modified on set-screw driver tip with TiN and DLC, investigated whether the TiN and DLC coatings affect the mechanical properties and durability of the set-screw driver tip in the pedicle screw system. The surface morphologies were observed with scanning-electron microscopy (SEM), and the static/dynamic torsional properties were investigated with universal testing machine based on ASTM F543. Coating thickness of each coatings were commonly around $1^{\circ}C$. Static torsional stiffness, and ultimate torque values for DLC and TiN coated samples were significantly higher than those of non-coated sample by the pared T-test. Surface morphology of after the dynamic torsional test was more clean with less scratch or friction traces from DLC coating than that of TiN coating and non-coated sample.

There are several studies on reducing the friction that occurs on the relative sliding contact surface of moving parts under extreme environments. In particular, a solid lubricated bearing is studied to solve the tribological problem with friction reduction and durability parts using solid lubricants (lead or silver) in a vacuum atmosphere. Galinstan is mainly used as a liquid metal lubricant, but it is inevitable to have limited tribological applications owing to its high coefficient of friction. Many researchers work on surface texturing for surface modification and precision processing methods. To increase durability and low friction, DLC coating with hydrophobicity is applied on the contact surface texture. Therefore, using an untextured specimen, a dimple specimen, and a DLC-coated dimple specimen under liquid metal lubrication, this paper presents the following experimental sliding friction characteristics in the sliding friction test. 1) The average coefficient of friction of the DLC-coated dimple specimen and dimple specimen are lower compared to that of a non-patterned specimen. 2) In the DLC-coated dimple specimens, the average coefficient of friction changes according to the change in the dimple density. 3) DLC-coated dimple specimens with a density of 12.5 have the lowest average coefficient of friction under 41.6 N of normal load and 143.3 RPM.

계면은 콘크리트 강도 결정 요인 중 가장 약한 영역으로, 골재와 시멘트 페이스트 사이에서 형성된다. 경량골재는 원재료를 팽창, 소성시켜 제조하기 때문에 표면에 수많은 공극을 형성하여 밀도가 낮은 장점을 지니지만 골재 강도가 약하다. 콘크리트는 골재강도가 약하면 골재의 파단이 발생한다. 경량골재의 콘크리트 적용은 골재 파단 때문으로 계면의 강도가 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 경량골재의 계면강도 증진을 위해 고로슬래그 미분말로 골재표면을 코팅하고, 시험체의 임피던스를 비교하여 표면개질에 의한 계면 변화를 분석하였다. 실험결과, 경량골재 표면코팅 시 압축강도가 약 4%정도 증가하였고, 강도 증가에 따라 임피던스 값 중 레지스턴스 값이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다.

Statement of problem. To improve a direct implant fixation to the bone, various strategies have been developed focusing on the surface of materials. The surface quality of the implant depends on the chemical, physical, mechanical and topographical properties of the surface. The different properties will interact with each other and a change in thickness of the oxide layer may also result in a change in surface energy, the surface topography and surface, chemical composition. However, there is limited the comprehensive study with regard to changed surface and biologic behavior of osteoblast by anodization. Purpose of study. The aim of this study was to analyze the characteristics of an oxide layer formed and to evaluate the cellular biologic behaviors on titanium by anodic oxidation (anodization) by cellular proliferation, differentiation, ECM formation and gene expression. And the phospholipase activity was measured on the anodized surface as preliminary study to understand how surface properties of Ti implant are transduced into downstream cellular events. Methods and Materials. The surface of a commercially pure titanium(Grade 2) was modified by anodic oxidation. The group 1 samples had a machined surface and other three experimental specimens were anodized under a constant voltage of 270 V(Group 2), 350 V(Group 3), and 450 V(Group 4). The specimen characteristics were inspected using the following five categories; the surface morphology, the surface roughness, the thickness of oxide layer, the crystallinity, and the chemical composition of the oxide layer. Cell numbers were taken as a marker for cell proliferation. While the expression of alkaline phosphatase and Runx2 (Cbfa1) was used as early differentiation marker for osteoblast. The type I collagen production was determined, which constitutes the main structural protein of the extracellular matrix. Phospholipase $A_2$ and D activity were detected. Results. (1) The anodized titanium had a porous oxide layer, and there was increase in both the size and number of pores with increasing anodizing voltage. (2) With increasing voltage, the surface roughness and thickness of the oxide film increased significantly (p<0.01), the $TiO_2$phase changed from anatase to rutile. During the anodic oxidization, Ca and P ions were more incorporated into the oxide layer. (3) The in vitro cell responses of the specimen were also dependant on the oxidation conditions. With increasing voltage, the ALP activity, type I collagen production, and Cbfa 1 gene expression increased significantly (p<0.01), while the cell proliferation decreased. (4) In preliminary study on the relation of surface property and phospholipase, PLD activity was increased but $PLA_2$ activity did not changed according to applied voltage. Conclusion. The anodized titanium shows improved surface characteristics than the machined titanium. The surface properties acquired by anodization appear to give rise more mature osteoblast characteristics and might result in increased bone growth, and contribute to the achievement of a tight fixation. The precise mechanism of surface property signaling is not known, may be related to phospholipase D.

고체 표면의 성질은 물질의 사용을 결정하는데 있어서 중요하다. 그래서 고분자 박막을 사용하여 표면을 개질시켜 표면층의 물리적, 화학적 성질을 제어하는 방법이 떠오르고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기판 표면과 고분자 간의 화학적 derivatization 없이 광화학 반응을 통하여 간단하고 효과적인 방법으로 고체 표면위에 고분자 박막을 흡착하여 표면을 개질시키는 방법을 설명하였다. 실리콘 웨이퍼에 스핀 코팅으로 형성된 광반응성이 있는 P4VP 박막을 이용하여 다른 고분자를 얹혀 UV 노광을 조사하여 벤질 라디칼 moieties 반응으로 고정하였다. 광화학 반응의 결과, UV 가교가 일어난 고분자는 P4VP 박막에 고정되어 지고, 반응이 일어나지 않은 부분은 초음파 세척으로 제거할 수 있다. 고정된 박막의 두께는 UV 노광 시간과 고분자의 분자량에 상관하여 형성되며, 광화학 반응으로 고정되기 때문에 photolithography 공정으로 마이크론 패턴 형성이 가능하다.

저압 플라즈마와 대기압 플라즈마를 사용하여 폴리카보네이트를 처리한 후 표면 개질 효과를 접촉각 측정을 통하여 비교 분석하였다. 플라즈마 처리 전의 폴리카보네이트의 탈이온수의 접촉각은 $82.31^{\circ}$이었으나 플라즈마 처리 후의 최소 접촉각은 산소 분위기의 저압 플라즈마에서 $9.17^{\circ}$의 최소 접촉각을 얻을 수 있었다. 플라즈마 방전 전력과 반응기체의 유량 증가에 따른 접촉각의 변화는 크지 않았으나 지속적으로 감소하는 특성을 보였다. 플라즈마 처리 후 경과시간에 따라 접촉각의 증가 현상을 보여 플라즈마 처리 후 후속 공정은 가급적 빨리 진행하는 것이 표면에너지 증가에 따른 효과를 이용하는데 효율적이다. 표면 화학결합 분석에서 산소분위기의 플라즈마 처리는 표면에 상대적으로 많은 극성 작용기를 형성하였다. 전반적으로 폴리카보네이트의 표면 개질에서 저압 산소플라즈마를 사용하여 처리하는 것이 대기압 플라즈마보다 효과적으로 친수성 표면을 만들 수 있었다.

UHI (Urban Heat Island) is an important environmental issue occurring in highly developed (or urbanized) area such as Seoul Metropolitan City of Korea due to modification of the land surface by man-made structures. With the advance of the remote sensing technique, land cover types and LST (Land Surface Temperature) influencing UHI were frequently investigated describing that they have a positive relationship. However, the concept of land cover considers material characteristics of the urban cover in a comprehensive way and does not provide information on how human activities influence on LST in detail. Instead, land use reflects ways of land use management and human life patterns and behaviors, and explains the relationship with human activities in more details. Using this concept, LST was segmented according to land use types from the Landsat imagery to identify the human-induced heat from the surface and interannual and seasonal variation of LST with GIS. The result showed that the LST intensity of Seoul was greatest in the industrial area and followed by the commercial and residential areas. In terms of size, the residential area could be defined as the major contributor among six urban land use types (i.e., residential, industrial, commercial, transportation, etc.) affecting UHI during daytime in Seoul. For temperature, the industrial area was highest and could be defined as a major contributor. It was found that land use type was more appropriate to understand the human-induced effect on LST rather than land cover. Also, there was no significant change in the interannual pattern of LST in Seoul but the seasonal difference provided a trigger that the human life pattern could be identified from the satellite-derived LST.

The effect of oven firing on the color stability and surface texture of extrinsic stains used characterization and color modification of metal cermic restoration were studied by comparing different temperatures and techniques. They were autoglaze technique, applied glaze technique, two step low-fusing glaze technique and one step low-fusing glaze technique. Autoglaze technique and applied glaze technique were air-fired to manufacturer's recommended temperature. Two step low-fusing glaze technique is separated staining and overglazing. Thin slurry of stain powder were air-fired to $1500^{\circ}F$, Overglaze powder powder was then mixed with seam medium and air-fired to $170^{\circ}F$. One step low-fusing glaze technique is combined staining and overglazing. Thin slurry of stain and glaze powder were air-fired to $170^{\circ}F$. The obtained results were as fellows. 1. Slightly significant color differences by colorimeter were found between different stain application and fusion techniques(P<0.05). 2. Two step low-fusing glaze method showed the most rough surface, especially ceramco orage stain(P<0.05). 3. Surface roughness increased gradually in order of autoglaze, applied glaze, one step low-fusing glaze but they were not significantly different(P<0.05). 4. When two step low-fusing glaze was applied, both color measurement and surface texture were sinificantly different from other groups(P<0.05).

최근의 실험 결과를 통해 하이브리드 로켓 연료의 표면에 연소가 진행되지 않은 채 남아있는 고립된 부분들이 존재함을 확인하였다. 이러한 불규칙적인 spot은 연료의 기화로 인한 분출유동(blowing velocity)과 산화제의 유동 사이에서 발생하는 경계층 교란에 의한 현상인 것으로 여겨진다. 본 연구에서는 22,500의 높은 Reynolds수와 벽면분출 현상을 효과적으로 처리할 수 있도록 LES 기법을 이용하여, 연료 표면 근처의 난류 유동 및 열전달 특성을 해석하였다. 비록 원형 그레인 아닌 단순채널 형상을 고려하였으며 화학반응이 없는 경우의 난류유동을 해석하였으나, 연료 표면에서 발생하는 불규칙한 spot의 발생은 경계층과 분출되는 유동이 상호 간섭함으로써 난류구조들의 기구학적 특성을 변경시키기 때문인 것으로 추측되는 결과들을 얻을 수 있었다.
