Nanoscale Chevrel $Mo_6S_8$ powders are synthesized by molten salt synthesis. Synthesized $Mo_6S_8$ powders have different mean particle sizes which are dependent on a ratio of salt to precursor. The particle sizes of $Mo_6S_8$ powders changes along with the ratio increase. $Mo_6S_8$ (6:1) demonstrates the best electrochemical characteristics among the synthesized $Mo_6S_8$ powders although the $Mo_6S_8$ (4:1) has the smallest particle size. $Mo_6S_8$ (6:1) shows a reversible capacity of 83.9 $mAhg^{-1}$, which is 27.5% and 33% improved value over $Mo_6S_8$ (2:1) and $Mo_6S_8$ (4:1) at a current density of 0.2C, respectively. The superior electrochemical properties of $Mo_6S_8$ (6:1) are attributed to the balanced particle size which provides proper contact area with electrolyte and the shortened $Mg^{2+}$ diffusion length. The $Mo_6S_8$ (4:1) has the smallest particle size but further reduction of particle size from $Mo_6S_8$ (6:1) is not advantageous.

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) 고분자의 유기용매 함유능을 증대시키기 위하여 PAN을 수정한 새로운 polyacrylonitrile-co-bis[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl]itaconate (PANI로 약칭) 공중합체를 합성하였다. PAN과 PANI의 혼합 고분자에 ethylene carbonate (EC)와 dimethyl carbonate (DMC)의 혼합유기용매, $LiClO_4$ 염을 혼합한 젤 고분자 전해질을 제조하였다. 상온에서의 이온전도도는 25PAN +10PANl +50EC/DMC+$15LiClO_4$ 조성의 전해질에서 $2\times10^{-3}\; Scm^{-1}$로 가장 높은 값을 나타내었다. 이는 PANI의 혼합으로 인하여 유기용매 영역의 결정질 성분이 줄어들고, 따라서 전하운반자의 수가 증가하기 때문인 것으로 분석하였다. PANI를 고분자 기질로 적당량 첨가하면, PAN만을 단용으로 사용한 젤-전해질에 비해 기계적 강도가 감소하는 단점이 있기는 하지만, 이온전도성, 열적 특성, 용매와의 혼화성, 전기화학적 안정성, 리튬 전극과의 계면 안정성 등 거의 모든 면에서 성능이 개선되는 것으로 나타났다.

The present study has been conducted to investigate convective heat/mass transfer in the cooling passage with bleed holes. The rotating square channel has 40.0 mm hydraulic diameter and the bleed holes on the leading surface of the channel. The hole diameter of bleed hole is 4.5mm and its spacing is ( p/d:4.9) about five times of hole diameter. Exit mass flow rate through bleed holes is $10\%$ of the main mass flow rate and relation number is changed form 0.0 to 0.4. A naphthalene sublimation technique is employed to determine the detailed local heat transfer coefficients using the heat and mass transfer analogy The cooling performance is influenced by exit mass flow rate through bleed holes and Coriolis force of rotating channel for fixed Reynolds number. The heat transfer on the leading surface is decreased due to Coriolis force. However the total heat transfer is enhanced around holes on the leading surface because of trapping flow by bleeding.

소둔시편 및 소둔 후 냉간가공한 하프늄시편에 대하여 양전자수명을 조사하였다. 소둔시편에서의 양전자수명은 187$\pm$3.7 psec인 반면, 소둔 후 냉간가공한 시편에서 격자결함에 포획된 양전자의 수명은 217$\pm$4.2 psec로 측정되었다. 양전자소멸측정 및 미세경도측정 방법을 이용하여 등시소둔에 의한 냉간가공시편의 회복 및 재결정 거동을 조사하였다. 재결정단계에서는 양전자소멸측정 과 미세경도측정값이 유사한 경향을 나타냈으나, 회복단계에서는 양전자소멸측정값이 매우 현저하게 변화하는 반면, 미세경도값은 거의 변화하지 않았다. 하프늄의 회복단계는 623 K부터 시작되며 재결정온도는 1023 K정도로 측정되었다.

저속 에너지 도플러 넓어짐 양전자 소멸 분광법으로 $Nb_3Ge$ 시료내의 원자 크기 정도 고체 구조 특성에 대하여 조사하였다. A15 화합물 구조로 된 $Nb_3Ge$ 시료를 상온에서 초전도 특성을 갖는 상전이 온도 근처의 S-변수를 측정하였다. 양전자와 전자의 쌍소멸로 발생하는 511 keV 감마선 스펙트럼의 수리적 해석 방법인 S-변수를 사용하여, 상전이 근처 온도에서 박막의 구조 변화를 측정하였다. 양전자의 입사 에너지에 따른 S-변수는 0.598에서 0.594로 온도의 변화에 의하여 감소하였으며 이때 초전도 전이와는 무관함을 나타낸다. 고온으로 갈수록 일반적인 트랩핑 비율은 커지고 양전자 흐름은 공공(voids) 근처에서 소멸하는 것이 보였다. 이 결과로부터 양전자가 초전자와 소멸하기 보다는 상전자와 소멸하는 것으로 판단된다.

This study was conducted in order to investigate the association between hypertension and oxidative stress-related parameters and to evaluate these parameters in subclinical hypertensive patients and normotensive subjects living in Korea. We attempted to determine whether oxidative stress-related parameters would differ between two groups of 227 newly-diagnosed, untreated (systolic blood pressure (BP) ${\geq}$ 130 mmHg and diastolic BP ${\geq}$ 85 mmHg) and 130 normotensive subjects (systolic BP < 120 mmHg and diastolic BP < 80 mmHg). General characteristics of the subjects were collected using a simple questionnaire. From subjects' blood, degree of DNA damage in lymphocytes, the activities of erythrocyte superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase, level of plasma total radical-trapping antioxidant potential (TRAP), glutathione, and anti-oxidative vitamins, as well as plasma lipid profiles and conjugated diene (CD) were analyzed. Evaluation of the associations of oxidative stress-related parameters with blood pressure of the subjects was performed using Pearson partial correlation and multivariate logistic regression analysis after adjusting for confounding factors. Several oxidative stress-related parameters were higher in subclinical hypertensive patients than in normotensive subjects. Plasma levels of ${\alpha}$-tocopherol, ${\beta}$-carotene, TRAP, and activity of GSH-px were significantly lower in subclinical hypertensive patients than in normotensive subjects. Increased levels of DNA damage, lipid peroxidation, triglyceride, total cholesterol, and LDL-cholesterol were observed in subclinical hypertensive patients. These results confirm an association between blood pressure and oxidative stress-related parameters and suggest that the pathogenic role of oxidative stress in hypertension might be significant.

A vegetative filter strip (VFS) is one of the best management practices (BMPs) to reduce pollutant loads. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of VFS in dense upland field areas. The study areas are agricultural fields in the Maedae (MD), Gaa (GA), and Jaun (JU) watersheds, where severe sediment yields have occurred and the Korean government has designated them as non-point management regions. The agricultural fields were divided into three or four clusters for each watershed based on their slope, slope length, and area (e.g., MD1, MD2). To assess the sediment trapping (STE) and pesticide reduction efficiency (PRE) of VFS, the Vegetative Filter Strip Modeling System (VFSMOD) was applied with three different scenarios (SC) (SC1: VFS with rye vegetation; SC2: VFS with rye vegetation and a gentle slope in VFS range; and SC3: VFS with grass mixture). For SC1, there were relatively short slope lengths and small areas in the MD1 and GA3 clusters, and they showed higher pollutant reduction (STE>50%, PRE>25%). For SC2 and SC3, all clusters in GA and some clusters (MD1 and MD3) in MD show higher pollutant reduction (>25%), while the uplands in JU still show a lower pollutant (<25%). With correlation analysis between geographic characteristics and VFS effectiveness slope and slope length showed relative higher correlations with the pollutant efficiency than a area. The results of this study implied that slope and slope length should be considered to find suitable upland conditions for VFS installations.

본 연구에서는 한국산업규격에서 제안하고 있는 건식방법과 습식방법을 이용하여 국내 플라스틱배수재 필터로 가장 많이 사용하는 토목섬유 3종류의 유효구멍크기를 평가하고, 시험 수행 과정에서 나타난 각 시험 방법의 특징과 시험 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 시험 결과에 의하면, 건식방법은 신속하고 간단한 시험방법이지만 상대적으로 많은 오차가 발생하는 등 좋지 않은 방법으로 나타났다. 반면에, 습식방법은 정전기 발생이나 섬유 내의 갇힘 현상 등 건식방법에서 나타나는 많은 오차를 줄일 수 있는 방법으로 판단되었다. 그러나 습식방법의 한 방법인 KS K ISO 12956의 경우, 시험에 오랜 시간이 소요되며 시험 중 사용 흙의 손실에 대한 기준이 매우 까다로운 것으로 나타났다. 일반적으로 습식방법으로 구한 토목섬유의 유효구멍크기는 건식방법으로 구한 유효구멍크기보다 작은 것으로 나타났으며, 특히 현재 사용하지 않는 방법인 수리동역학적인 방법 KS F 2126로 구한 유효구멍크기는 KS K ISO 12956방법으로 구한 유효구멍크기와 비슷하거나 작은 것으로 나타났다.

Photocatalysts are advanced materials which accelerate the photoreaction by providing ordinary reactions with other pathways. The catalysts have various advantages, such as low-cost, low operating temperature and pressure, and long-term use. They are applied to environmental and energy field, including the air and water purification, water splitting for hydrogen production, sterilization and self-cleaning surfaces. However, commercial photocatalysts only absorb ultraviolet light between 100 and 400 nm of wavelength which comprises only 5% in sunlight due to the wide band gap. In addition, rapid recombination of electron-hole pairs reduces the photocatalytic performance. Recently, studies on blackening photocatalysts by laser, thermal, and plasma treatments have been conducted to enhance the absorption of visible light and photocatalytic activity. The disordered structures could yield mid-gap states and vacancies could cause charge carrier trapping. Herein, liquid phase plasma (LPP) is adopted to synthesize Ag-doped black ZnO for the utilization of visible-light. The physical and chemical characteristics of the synthesized photocatalysts are analyzed by SEM/EDS, XRD, XPS and the optical properties of them are investigated using UV/Vis DRS and PL analyses. Lastly, the photocatalytic activity was evaluated using methylene blue as a pollutant.
