Cellulose is an abundant biodegradable material in nature with excellent properties, but due to its poor processability, it has been widely studied for processing through modification. Cellulose acetate propionate (CAP) is a cellulose derivative in which the hydroxyl group of cellulose is replaced by acetyl and propionyl groups. CAP has several advantages, such as excellent solubility, structural stability, light and weather resistance, and good transparency. Porous nanofibers with excellent specific surface area, which can be applied in various fields, can be easily formed by the phase separation method using highly volatile solvents. High speed centrifugal spinning is a nano/micro fiber preparation method with advantages such as fast spinning and easy alignment control. In this study, a CAP/polybutylene succinate (PBS) spinning solution with chloroform as solvent was prepared to prepare porous microfibers and the fiber morphology was examined as a function of the disk rotation speed in an high speed centrifugal spinning device.

Microplastics in water resources have been recognized as a serious problem. The discharge of microplastics from wastewater treatment plants is considered a major contributor to environmental pollution in water resources. However, a reliable analytical method for quantifying microplastics in wastewater treatment plants has not yet been established. This study proposes a reliable, quick, and easy analytical method for quantifying microplastics. For the removal of organic particles, preprocessing steps were applied including oxidation, sonication, washing, and sieving. Nile Red staining was used to visualize microplastics, and quantitative analysis was conducted using fluorescent imaging. The stained microplastics were ultimately quantified through image analysis software. Among the preprocessing steps, sonication and washing stages were particularly effective in efficiently removing interfering substances from wastewater, enhancing the accuracy of the microplastic analysis. Additionally, various solvents (methanol, acetone, and N-hexane) for the Nile Red staining solution were tested. When N-hexane was applied as the solvent, the quantity of stained microplastics was lower compared to methanol and acetone. This suggests that N-hexane has a greater potential of reducing false staining and counting of non-plastic particles. In summary, this research demonstrates a robust method for quantifying microplastics in wastewater treatment plants by employing effective preprocessing steps and optimizing the staining process with Nile Red and N-hexane.

본 연구에서는 계면활성제에 의한 수계 세정제의 문제점을 해결하고자 친환경적이고 계면활성제가 없는 수계세정제 개발연구를 진행하였다. 이를 위하여 전자 부품 세정대상의 주 오염물인 플럭스(flux)에 대해 용해력이 있고 수용성인 propylene glycol과 propylene glycol alkyl ether계 용제를 주성분으로 하고 여기에 여러 첨가제를 가하여 수계 surfactant-free 세정제 S-1, S-2를 배합하였고, 이들 개발세정제와 비교대상의 수계 surfactant-free 수입 세정제의 물성을 측정하여 세정성능을 예측하고 오염물인 플럭스와 솔더(flux and solder) 대하여 중량법을 이용한 초음파 세정성 평가를 진행하였다. 물성 측정 결과 비교대상 세정제인 수입세정제 V는 본 연구에서 개발한 배합세정제 S-1과 S-2의 세정제와 전반적으로 비슷한 결과 값을 가짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 비교대상 세정제 V와 배합세정제 모두 원액을 희석함에 따라 pH가 저하되다가 다시 상승하는 것이 관찰되었으며 습윤지수값은 세정능력에는 크게 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 판단되었다. 다양한 초음파 주파수(28, 45, 100 kHz)를 사용한 세정성 평가 실험 결과에서 솔더(solder)의 세정은 주파수 45 kHz에서 세정 성능이 가장 좋게 나타났고 플럭스(flux)의 세정 성능 결과는 실험 대상의 모든 세정제가 주파수 28 kHz에서 세정 성능이 가장 좋게 나타났다. 희석하지 않은 원액세정제의 플럭스 및 솔더(flux and solder) 세정의 경우 배합세정제 S-1, S-2 모두 수입세정제 V보다 빠른 세정력을 보여주었다. 그러나 수입세정제 V의 권장 사용농도인 25%에서는 수입 세정제 V가 배합세정제 보다 초기 세정효율이 좋음이 확인되었다. 따라서 본 실험결과를 가지고 판단할 때, 본 연구에서 개발한 배합세정제 S-1, S-2는 충분히 산업현장의 플럭스 및 솔더(flux and solder) 세정에 적용이 가능할 것으로 판단되어진다.

오미자 5 g에 100 mL의 세 가지 용매(아세톤, 에탄올, 메탄올)를 각각 가하여 추출하여 농축한 다음, DMSO 용매에 녹여 항산화활성과 항유전독성을 조사하였다. 그 결과 총페놀 함량에서 메탄올 추출물이 1183.3 mg/100 g으로 가장 높았다. 항산화활성을 50, 100, 250, 500, $1000\;{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 측정하였을 때 DPPH radical 소거능과 SOD 유사활성은 각각 농도에 의존하여 결과 값이 향상되었으며, DPPH radical 소거능에서 높은 $IC_{50}$값을 나타낸 것은 에탄올 추출물로 $1411.1\;{\mu}g/mL$을 나타내었고, SOD 유사활성에서 $IC_{50}$값은 오미자 메탄올 추출물과 에탄올 추출물이 $905.7\;{\mu}g/mL$, $970.3\;{\mu}g/mL$ 순으로 비슷한 활성을 나타내었다. 또한 comet assay에서는 오미자 추출물을 1, 5, 10, $50\;{\mu}g/mL$의 농도로 백혈구에 처리한 후 $H_2O_2\;200\;{\mu}M$의 농도로 처리하여 DNA 손상을 유도한 결과 손상된 $50\;{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 DNA tail 부분의 DNA 함량을 측정한 % tail DNA inhibition이 각각 AE(73.1%), ME(63.7%), EE(62.8%)로 $H_2O_2$ 처리 양성 대조구에 비해 유의적으로 증가하였다. 이는 오미자에 함유되어 있는 페놀 화합물 외에 lignan 화합물을 포함한 여러 가지 다른 생리활성 물질들의 항산화력으로 인해 DPPH radical 소거능과 SOD 유사활성, 항유전독성 활성이 상호 의존적이 지 않음을 나타내고 있다고 사료된다. 따라서 오미자의 항산화 활성과 항유전독성의 메카니즘적 상호관계를 규명하는 연구가 향후 수행되어져야 할 것이다. 이상의 결과에서 오미자의 용매에 따른 추출물들은 각각 항산화 활성과 항 유전독성이 있음을 알 수 있었고, 따라서 본 연구에서는 오미자의 천연 생리활성 물질로서의 활용 가능성을 규명할 수 있었다.

Perfluoropolymers represent the ultimate resistance to hostile chemical environments and high service temperature, attributed to the presence of fluorine in the polymer backbone, i.e. to the high bond energy of C-F and C-C bonds of fluorocarbons. Copolymers of Tetrafluoroethylene (TEE) and 2, 2, 4Trifluoro-5Trifluorometoxy- 1, 3Dioxole (TTD), commercially known as HYFLON AD, are amorphous perfluoropolymers with glass transition temperature (Tg)higher than room temperature, showing a thermal decomposition temperature exceeding 40$0^{\circ}C$. These polymer systems are highly soluble in fluorinated solvents, with low solution viscosities. This property allows the preparation of self-supported and composite membranes with desired membrane thickness. Symmetric and asymmetric perfluoropolymer membranes, made with HYFLON AD, have been prepared and evaluated. Porous and not porous symmetric membranes have been obtained by solvent evaporation with various processing conditions. Asymmetric membranes have been prepared by th wet phase inversion method. Measure of contact angle to distilled water have been carried out. Figure 1 compares experimental results with those of other commercial membranes. Contact angles of about 120$^{\circ}$for our amorphous perfluoropolymer membranes demonstrate that they posses a high hydrophobic character. Measure of contact angles to hexandecane have been also carried out to evaluate the organophobic character. Rsults are reported in Figure 2. The observed strong organophobicity leads to excellent fouling resistance and inertness. Porous membranes with pore size between 30 and 80 nanometers have shown no permeation to water at pressures as high as 10 bars. However high permeation to gases, such as O2, N2 and CO2, and no selectivities were observed. Considering the porous structure of the membrane, this behavior was expected. In consideration of the above properties, possible useful uses in th field of gas- liquid separations are envisaged for these membranes. A particularly promising application is in the field of membrane contactors, equipments in which membranes are used to improve mass transfer coefficients in respect to traditional extraction and absorption processes. Gas permeation properties have been evaluated for asymmetric membranes and composite symmetric ones. Experimental permselectivity values, obtained at different pressure differences, to various single gases are reported in Tab. 1, 2 and 3. Experimental data have been compared with literature data obtained with membranes made with different amorphous perfluoropolymer systems, such as copolymers of Perfluoro2, 2dimethyl dioxole (PDD) and Tetrafluorethylene, commercialized by the Du Pont Company with the trade name of Teflon AF. An interesting linear relationship between permeability and the glass transition temperature of the polymer constituting the membrane has been observed. Results are descussed in terms of polymer chain structure, which affects the presence of voids at molecular scale and their size distribution. Molecular Dyanmics studies are in progress in order to support the understanding of these results. A modified Theodoru- Suter method provided by the Amorphous Cell module of InsightII/Discover was used to determine the chain packing. A completely amorphous polymer box of about 3.5 nm was considered. Last but not least the use of amorphous perfluoropolymer membranes appears to be ideal when separation processes have to be performed in hostile environments, i.e. high temperatures and aggressive non-aqueous media, such as chemicals and solvents. In these cases Hyflon AD membranes can exploit the outstanding resistance of perfluoropolymers.

촉매로서 Hg$^{2+}$을 사용한 수화반응에서 cis-[Co(en)$_2$(OH$_2$)Cl]$^{2+}$, [Co(NH$_3$)$_5$Cl]$^{2+}$, cis-[Co(NH$_3$)$_4$(OH$_2$)Cl]$^{2+}$ 및 [Co(NH$_2$CH$_3$)$_5$Cl]$^{2+}$착물들은 Hg$^{2+}$의 농도가 증가할수록 관측속도상수(k$_{obs}$)의 값이 증가하였다. Hg$^{2+}$에 의한 수화반응의 속도법칙은 Rate = k$_2$K[complex][Hg$^{2+}$]이었고, 그 메카니즘이 연구되었다. 또한 여러가지 유기용매-물 혼합용매에서 Co(Ⅲ)착물의 Hg$^{2+}$에 의한 수화반응이 연구되었다. 용매의 성질인 Y (solvent ionizing power)값에 대한 log k를 도시하여 그 기울기인 m값을 얻었다. 그 m값으로부터 수화반응의 메카니즘을 추정하였다. 속도론적인 자료로부터 Hg$^{2+}$에 의한 Co(Ⅲ)착물의 수화반응이 I$_{d^-}$메카니즘으로 제안되었다. 각 Co(Ⅲ)착물의 속도의 차이는 여러가지 리간드가 배위된 Co(Ⅲ)착물의 리간드장파라메타(${\Delta}$)값과 관계가 있었다.

본 연구에서는 리튬 이차 전지의 가연성이 높은 액체 전해액의 대체 또는 개선을 위하여 이온성 액체 전해액으로 전극들에서의 거동을 관찰하였다. 이온성 액체인 1-ethyl-1-methyl piperidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide(PP12 TFSI)는 녹는점이 $85^{\circ}C$이므로 상온에서 고체상이다. PP12 TFSI를 단독으로 전해액에 사용할 수 없으므로 리튬 이온 전지용 용매와 혼합하여 사용한다. PP12 TFSI를 50 wt.% 이상 사용하면 난연성이 아주 좋은 반면에 점도가 높아서 전해액 함침이 어렵다. 이온성 액체의 비율을 44 wt.%(이온성 액체:용매=1:1.25 wt.%)로 맞추고, 혼합한 용매는 EC/DEC(1/1 vol.%)이며, $LiPF_6$의 농도가 1.5 M이 되도록 전해액을 준비하여 연구하였다. 준비한 전해액은 자가소화시간 25초의 준수한 난연성을 가지고 있으며, 여러 종류의 전극에서도 우수한 수명 성능을 보여주었다. 적용된 전극은 $LiNi_{0.5}Mn_{1.5}O_4(LNMO)$, $LiFePO_4(LFP)$, $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}(LTO)$, artificial graphite이며, 특히 음극으로 사용된 artificial graphite에서의 전해액 분해를 방지하기 위한 첨가제의 거동도 관찰하였다. 여전히 전극으로의 함침의 문제가 다소 관찰이 되었으며 이런 문제가 개선될 수 있는 최적화된 혼합 이온성 액체 전해액이 개발된다면 이온성 액체의 난연성 특성은 더욱 활용성이 높아질 것이다.

Among the various roll-to-roll printing technologies such as gravure, gravure-offset, and reverse offset printing, reverse offset printing has the advantage of fine patterning, with less than 5 ${\mu}m$ line width. However, it involves complex processes, consisting of 1) the coating process, 2) the off process, 3) the patterning process, and 4) the set process of the ink. Each process demands various ink properties, including viscosity, surface tension, stickiness, and adhesion with substrate or clich$\acute{e}$; these properties are critical factors for the printing quality of fine patterning. In this study, Ag nano ink was developed for reverse offset printing and the effect of polyvinylpyrrolidone(PVP), used as a capping agent of Ag nano particles, on the printing quality was investigated. Ag nano particles with a diameter of ~60 nm were synthesized using the conventional polyol synthesis process. Ethanol and ethylene glycol monopropyl ether(EGPE) were used together as the main solvent in order to control the drying and absorption of the solvents during the printing process. The rheological behavior, especially ink adhesion and stickiness, was controlled with washing processes that have an effect on the offset process and that played a critical role in the fine patterning. The electrical and thermal behaviors were analyzed according to the content of PVP in the Ag ink. Finally, an Ag mesh pattern with a line width of 10 ${\mu}m$ was printed using reverse offset printing; this printing showed an electrical resistivity of 36 ${\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ after sintering at $200^{\circ}C$.

Clostridium butyricum NCIB 9576 evolved hydrogen gas and produced various organic acids from glucose, lactose, starch, and glycerol. Total amount of hydrogen gas produced from 1 and 2% glucose were 630 and 950ml $H_2$/l-broth, respectively, for the first 24 hrs of incubation and the maximum hydrogen production rates were 42 and 94ml $H_2$/hr/1-broth, respectively. Teh initial pH 6.8 decreased to 4.2~4.5 during the first 12~16 hrs of fermentation when the pH was not controlled, resulting in ceasing the cell growth and hydrogen evolution and in degradation of 82 and 40% glucose after 24hrs of incubation from 1 and 2% glucose, respectively. When pH was controlled to 5.5, glucose was consumed completely and resulted in increasing hydrogen production approximately 38~50% compared to the experiments without the pH control. C. butyricum NCIB 9576 produced hydrogen gas approximately 644, 1,700 and 3,080 ml $H_2$/l-broth with 0.5, 1 and 2% lactose, respectively and the maximum hydrogen production rates were 41, 141 and 179ml $H_2$/hr/l-broth, respectively. All of the lactose added was degraded completely during fermentation even though pH was not controlled. C. butyricum NCIB 9576 produced 183 and 709ml $H_2$/l-broth with 0.1 and 0.5% starch for 48 hrs, respectively, when pH was not controlled. The maximum rates of hydrogen gas production were 43 and 186ml $H_2$/l-broth, respectively and 80~100% of starch added was fermented. Approximately 107ml $H_2$/l-broth was produced using 1% glycerol by C. butyricum NCIB 9576 and the pH was maintained higher than 6.1 during fermentation without pH control. The degradation of glucose, lactose, starch and glycerol by C. butyricum NCIB 9576 were affected by the pH of fermentation broth and the organic acids released during fermentation. The pH of feremtntation broth dropped to 4.2~4.6 after 12~14 hrs incubation when glucose was used as a substrate while pHs were maintained above pH 5 under the same experimental conditions when lactose, starch and glycerol were used. The organic solvents and acids produced during glucose fermentation were mainly ethanol, butyrate, acetate and a little of propionate, while butyrate was the main organic acids during the lactose, starch, and glycerol fermentation by C. butyricum NCIB 9576.
