This work focused on corrosion of carbon steel bolted GECM/Al parts in tap water and NaCl solutions. In tap water and NaCl solutions, open circuit potential of GECM and its potentials in a series of carbon steel bolt>Ti>Al became active. Regardless of test materials, open circuit potentials in tap water were noble, and increasing NaCl concentration, its potentials became active. Immersion test of single specimen showed that no corrosion occur in Ti and GECM. In tap water, carbon steel bolt didn't show red corrosion product and in chloride solutions, corrosion rate in 1% NaCl solution was greater than its rate in 3.5% NaCl solution and red corrosion product in 1% NaCl solution was earlier observed than that in 3.5% NaCl solution. It seems that this behavior would be related to zinc-coatings on the surface of carbon stee l bolt. On the other hand, aluminium was corroded in tap water and chloride solutions. Corrosion of aluminium in tap water was due to the presence of chloride ion in tap water by sterilizing process.

Alkaline oxygen electrocatalysis, targeting anion exchange membrane alkaline-based metal-air batteries has become a subject of intensive investigation because of its advantages compared to its acidic counterparts in reaction kinetics and materials stability. However, significant breakthroughs in the design and synthesis of efficient oxygen reduction catalysts from earth-abundant elements instead of precious metals in alkaline media still remain in high demand. One of the most inexpensive alternatives is carbonaceous materials, which have attracted extensive attention either as catalyst supports or as metal-free cathode catalysts for oxygen reduction. Also, carbon composite materials have been recognized as the most promising because of their reasonable balance between catalytic activity, durability, and cost. In particular, heteroatom (e.g., N, B, S or P) doping on carbon materials can tune the electronic and geometric properties of carbon, providing more active sites and enhancing the interaction between carbon structure and active sites. Here, we focused on boron and nitrogen doped nanocarbon composit (BNC nanocarbon) catalysts synthesized by a solution plasma process using the simple precursor of pyridine and boric acid without further annealing process. Additionally, guidance for rational design and synthesis of alkaline ORR catalysts with improved activity is also presented.

Hybrid F2HX surfactants bearing a sulfate moiety and both hydrocarbon and fluorocarbon chains were prepared by the reaction of alkyl glycidyl ethers with fluoro-alcohol, and subsequent sulfation. The fluorocarbon number in F2HX was fixed at the shortest number possible (i.e., 2), while the hydrocarbon number (X) in the second chain was varied between 2, 4, 6, and 8. Their surface-active properties and emulsion stabilities were systematically estimated as a function of the X. Among them, F2H8 exhibited the optimal surfactant performance, which was comparable to previously reported surfactants and it was successfully applied in the emulsion polymerization of vinylidene fluoride.

Designing and producing a low-cost, high-current-density electrode with good electrocatalytic activity for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is still a major challenge for the industrial hydrogen energy economy. In this study, nanostructured Fe-doped CuCo(OH)₂ was discovered to be a precedent electrocatalyst for OER with low overpotential, low Tafel slope, good durability, and high electrochemically active surface sites at reduced mass loadings. Fe-doped CuCo(OH)₂ nanosheets are made using a hydrothermal synthesis process. These nanosheets are clumped together to form a highly open hierarchical structure. When used as an electrocatalyst, the Fe-doped CuCo(OH)₂ nanosheets required an overpotential of 260 mV to reach a current density of 50 mA cm^-2. Also, it showed a small Tafel slope of 72.9 mV dec^-1, and superior stability while catalyzing the generation of O₂ continuously for 20 hours. The Fe-doped CuCo(OH)₂ was found to have a large number of active sites which provide hierarchical and stable transfer routes for both electrolyte ions and electrons, resulting in exceptional OER performance.

Cellulose Electro-Active Paper (EAPap) has been known as a new smart material that is attractive for a bio-mimetic actuator due to its merits in terms of lightweight, dry condition, large displacement output, low actuation voltage and low power consumption. Cellulose EAPap is made by regenerating cellulose and aligning its micro-fibrils. This paper introduces several EAPap materials, which are based on natural cellulose and its hybrid nanocomposites mixed/blended with inorganic functional materials. By chemically bonding and mixing with carbon nanotubes and inorganic nanoparticles, the cellulose EAPap can be a hybrid nanocomposite that has versatile properties and can meet material requirements for many applications. Recent research trend of the cellulose EAPap is introduced in terms of material preparations as well as application devices including actuators, temperature and humidity sensors, biosensors, chemical sensors, and so on. This paper also explains wirelessly driving technology for the cellulose EAPap, which is attractive for bio-mimetic robotics, surveillance and micro-aerial vehicles.

4 종류의 n형 유기 반도체 물질 F16CuPC, NTCDA, PTCDA, PTCDI C-8을 사용하여 ITO/n형 활성물질/Al gate/n형 활성물질/Al으로 구성되는 세로형 유기 박막트랜지스터를 제작하였다. 캐리어 이동도의 차이를 갖는 유기 물질의 종류와 유기 박막층의 두께 조절에 따른 유기 박막트랜지스터의 전류전압(I-V) 특성 및 전류의 온오프비에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. PTCDI C-8을 사용한 세로형 유기 박막트랜지스터에서 낮은 구동전압과 높은 스위칭 특성을 보였다. ITO/PEDOT-PSS/P3HT/F16CuPc/Al gate/F16CuPc/Al으로 구성되는 발광트랜지스터를 제작하였고, 20 V에서 최고 0.054의 양자 효율을 나타내었다.

메타게놈(metagenome)은 연구실에서 배양이 불가능한 미생물을 포함한 자연계에 존재하는 미생물의 유전자를 직접 연구하는 학문분야이다. 지구상 거의 모든 자연, 인공 환경에서 살고 있는 미생물 DNA를 분리 정제하는 것이 가능하며, 재조합 DNA 기술 등을 이용하여 배양 가능한 숙주미생물에 메타지놈을 클로닝함으로서 메타지놈 라이브러리를 제작할 수 있다. 최근 메타게노믹스를 통하여 자연계에 존재하고 있는 대다수의 미생물들이 실험실에서 배양되지 않았던 이유를 구명할 수 있게 되었고, 그들이 가지고 있는 생태학적인 의미와 역할에 대한 이해와 더불어 점차 그 응용 분야와 범위도 확대되고 있다. 이와 같은 메타게놈의 응용 분야 확대의 한 방안으로 본 연구에서는 새로운 제초활성 물질 및 제초활성 물질 생산에 필요한 유전자를 확보하기 위해 메타게놈 라이브러리를 대상으로 오이 떡잎절편 검정, 미세조류 생장저해 검정, 종자발아 저해 검정의 HTS (high throughput screening) 시스템을 구축하였고, 구축된 시스템으로부터 선발된 최종 단일 클론인 9-G1과 9-G12의 바랭이에 대한 in vivo assay를 통해 본 연구에서 개발한 HTS 시스템의 유효성을 확인 하였다. 후속연구로서 활성단일클론이 만들어내는 제초활성물질의 동정 및 제초활성물질을 합성하는 유전자군에 대한 연구를 수행 중에 있다.
