Rhodamine B(RhB) 탈색에 대한 광전기촉매 공정의 적용가능성을 분말 TiO$_2$를 충전한 슬러리 광전기촉매 반응기에서 연구하였다. 광전기촉매 공정의 반응기 시스템은 분말 TiO$_2$, Pt 전극 및 3개의 8 W UV-C 등으로 구성되어 있다. 전류, 전해질, 공기 유량 및 전극 재질과 같은 운전 인자의 영향을 고찰하였다. 광전기촉매 공정의 최적 광촉매 량과 전류는 각각 0.4 g/L과 0.02A이었다. 광촉매 공정과 전기분해 단독 공정에 의해 분해되는 RhB의 합보다 광전기촉매 공정에 의해 더 빨리 분해되었는데, 광촉매 공정과 전기분해 공정의 결합에 의한 시너지 효과를 나타내는 것으로 사료되었다. 광전기촉매 공정은 공기 유량에 의해 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났고 최적 공기 유량은 2 L/min이었다. RhB 탈색에 대한 전극 재질과 NaCl 효과는 본 실험범위에서는 크지 않은 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, $TiO_2$-Activated carbon (AC) complex fibers were prepared by electrospinning for the synergetic effect of adsorption and degradation of organic pollutant. The average diameter of these fibers increased with increasing the amount of AC added, except for 1AC-TOF (AC$/TiO_2$ =1/40 mass ratio). After calcinations at $500^{\circ}C$, long as-spun fibers were broken and their average diameter was slightly decreased. The resultant fibers after calcination had rough surface and sphere shapes like a peanut. From XRD results, it was confirmed that as-spun fibers were changed to anatase $Ti_O2$ fiber after calcinations at $500^{\circ}C$. The prepared $TiO_2$-AC complex fibers could remove procian blue dyes by solar light irradiation with high removal property of 94~99%. The PB dye was rapidly removed by adsorption during the initial 5 minutes. But after 5 minutes, dye removal was occurred by photodegradation. In this study, the most efficient AC/$TiO_2$ ratio of $TiO_2$-AC complex fibers was 5/40, showing the synergetic effect of adsorption and photodegradation. It is expected that the $TiO_2$-AC complex fibers can be used to remove of organic pollutants in water system.

This study was aimed to examine the synergetic effects of photochemopreventive external agents composed of inorganic ZnO and esculetin. Zinc oxide (ZnO) is widely used in sunblocks because of its excellent biostability and little toxicity. Esculetin derived from Citrus Peel has an anti-oxidative effect. We made the hollow-shaped ZnO microsphere (MS), soaked it with esculetin (EZnO). We used SKH-1 mice to measure the photodamaging effects of UVB. The mice were divided into five groups as follows; UVB nontreated group (N), vehicle (C), esculetin (E), ZnO MS (ZnO), esculetin + ZnO MS(EZno) group. Each group of samples was topically applied to the dorsal skins before the UVB irradiation. The changes of collagen fibers in the skin tissues were observed by H & E staining and Van Gieson staining. The expression of mast cells in skin tissue was observed by immunohistochemical staining of tryptase present in the mast cell granules. Expression of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-$1{\beta}$, and MMP-9, which plays an essential role in wrinkle formation, was measured by RT-PCR. Interestingly, the composition of collagen fibers was better in the EZnO applied group than in the E or ZnO group. Moreover, mast cell expression and the expression of TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-$1{\beta}$, and MMP-9 mRNA were markedly suppressed in the EZnO group, indicating that the synergetic effects of esculetin and ZnO were excellent.

We previously reported that the exogenous administration of cumambrin A, a sesquiterpene lactone from the dried flowers of Chrysanthemum boreale Makino has a pharmacological effect on normalization of blood pressure in the spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). In the present study, we further investigated the effect of cumambrin A on the relaxation of phenylephrine-induced precontracted rat aortic artery rings. The potency of cumambrin A was than compared to verapamil, a well known $Ca^{2+}-channel$ blocker. The results demonstrate that the isolated rat aortic arteries are relaxed to basal tension at a concentration of $5{\times}10^{-5}\;M$ cumambrin A treatment. The results also show that the phenylephrine-induced contraction is inhibited by a pretreatment of cumambrin A. Co-treatment of cumambrin A and verapamil showed a strong synergetic effect on the relaxation of rat aortic artery rings. Thus, these data demonstrate that cumambrin A is a potent relaxant of rat aortic smooth muscle and suggest that cumambrin A modulates intracellular or extracellular $Ca^{2+}$ mobilization.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) can be produced by interactions between sunlight and light-absorbing substances in natural water environments and can completely destroy various organic pollutants in waste water. In this study, we used graphene oxide modified $Ag_2Se$ nanoparticles to enhance photochemically generated oxygen (PGO) species activity. Surface area and pore volumes of the $Ag_2Se-graphene$ ($Ag_2Se-G$) samples showed catastrophic decrease due to deposition of $Ag_2Se$. The generation of reactive oxygen species was detected through the oxidation reaction of DPCI to DPCO. The photocurrent density and the PGO effect increase in the case of the use of modified graphene. The PGO effect of the graphene modified with $Ag_2Se$ composites increased significantly due to a synergetic effect between graphene and the $Ag_2Se$ nanoparticles. The photocatalytic activity of sample was evaluated by measuring the degradation of organic pollutants such as methylene blue (MB) and industrial dyes such as Texbrite BA-L (TBA) under visible light.

Photocatalytic reaction using $TiO_2$ thin film was applied for the inactivation of coliform bacteria and the degradation of formic acid. UV processes coupled with and without $TiO_2$ were tested for the river water samples. It took 5 and 15 minutes, respectively, to obtain 99% destruction of coliform bacteria in the total coliform test, which demonstrated the effectiveness of the photocatalytic reaction. Complete degradation of formic acid determined by TOC analysis was observed in 20 minutes by ozone/photocatalysis, while formic acid was degraded as little as about 20% during the first 100 minutes by ozone treatment alone. When ozone was supplied to the $TiO_2/UV$ system, however, it provided a synergetic effect for the degradation of formic acid.

One of the primary concerns about the design aspects is that how to deal with the shear reinforcement in the ultra-high performance fiber reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) beam. This study aims to investigate the shear behavior of UHPFRC rectangular cross sectional beams with fiber volume fraction of 1.5 % considering a spacing of shear reinforcement. Shear tests for simply supported UHPFRC beams were performed. Test results showed that the steel fibers substantially improved of the shear resistance of the UHPFRC beams. Also, shear reinforcement had a synergetic effect on enhancement of ductility. Even though the spacing of shear reinforcement exceeds the spacing limit recommended by current design codes (ACI 318-14), shear strength of UHPFRC beam was noticeably greater than current design codes. Therefore, the spacing limit of 0.75d can be allowed for UHPFRC beams.

This study has carried out to evaluate the performance of single (electrolysis, UV and ultrasonic process) and complex process (Electrolysis+UV, UV+Ultrasonic and Electrolysis+Ultrasonic) for the purpose of disinfection of Escherichia coli in water. The order of disinfection performance for E. coli in single process lie in: Electrolysis ${\fallingdotseq}$ UV >> ultrasonic process. OH radical was not produced in single disinfection process. Among the three kinds of complex process, disinfection performance of the Electrolysis+UV was higher than that of the other process (UV+Ultrasonic and Electrolysis+Ultrasonic). It demonstrated a synergetic effect between the UV and electrolysis. When the use of $Na_2SO_4$ as electrolyte instead of NaCl, current increase or more reaction time was needed for the complete disinfection. The disinfection performance of pre-electrolysis (20 W, 30sec) and post-UV (10 W, 30 sec) was higher than that of the simultaneous electrolysis+UV process at same electric power (30 W, 30 second).

Cr-Mo low alloy steels have been used for a long time for pressure vessel due to its excellent corrosion resistance, high temperature strength and toughness. The paper reviewed the latest trends on material development and some problems on Cr-Mo low alloy steel for pressure vessel, such as elevated temperature strength, hardenability, synergetic effect between temper and hydrogen embrittlement, hydrogen attack and hydrogen induced disbonding of overlay weld-cladding.
