  • Herein, resin-formed polysilsesquioxanes (PSSQs) were synthesized using monomolecular fluoro silane as a precursor. The synthesized PSSQs exhibited anti-smudge performance and were used as coating liquid. Two structures were acquired by controlling the amount of the silane precursor and the K2CO3 catalyst; these materials were used to prepare the anti-smudge coating liquid solution. The synthesized product was analyzed by various methods such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, gel permeation chromatography, and water contact angle measurement. The results confirmed that the as-synthesized PSSQs exhibited the ladder structure and had a molecular weight of 5,117 g/mol and water contact angle of 102.31°.

  • Ceramic membranes have attracted a great attention because they have excellent resistance to most organic solvents and can be used over a wide temperature range. Especially, titania (titanium oxide, TiO$_2$) shows excellent chemical resistance and can be used both acidic and alkali solutions, and therefore, titania is one of the most promising materials for the preparation of porous membranes; titania membranes having pore sizes in the range of nanofiltration (NF) to ultrafiltration (UF) membrane have been prepared by the sol-gel process (Tsuru 2001).(omitted)

  • Porous materials such as concrete could be subjected to aggressive ions transport. Durability of cement paste is extremely depended on water and ions penetration into its interior sections. These ions transport could lead different damages depending on reactivity of ions, their concentrations and diffusion coefficients. In this paper, chloride diffusion process in cement hydrates is simulated at atomistic scale using molecular dynamics. Most important phase of cement hydrates is calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H). Tobermorite, one of the most famous crystal analogues of C-S-H, is used as substrate in the simulation model. To conduct simulation, a nanopore is considered in the middle of simulation cell to place water molecules and aggressive ions. Different chloride salts are considered in models to find out which one is better for calculation of the transport properties. Diffusion coefficients of water molecules and chloride ions are calculated and validated with existing analytical and experimental works. There are relatively good agreements among simulation outputs and experimental results.

  • BiSrCaCuO was prepared by the thermal pyrolysis method. The solid precursor produced by the dehydration of the gel at $120^{\circ}C$ for 12h is not in the amorphous state as expected but in a crystalline state. X-ray diffraction peaks of nearly the same angular position as the peaks of high Tc phase were observed in the precursor. After pyrolysis at $90^{\circ}C$ and calcination at $840^{\circ}C-920^{\circ}C$ for 4h, the high Tc phase was cleary observed. In this paper, the establishment of fabrication condition and additive effects of second elements were examined so as to improve the related properties to the practical use of BiSrCaCuO superconductor, and we reported the production of the BiSrCaCuO high Tc superconductor by the pyrolysis method.

  • A high Tc superconducting with a nominal composition of BSSCCO was prepared by the citarte method. The solid precursor produced by the dehydration of the gel at $120^{\circ}C$ for 12h is not in the amorphous state as expected but in a crystalline state. X-ray diffraction peaks of nearly the same angular position as the peaks of high Tc phase were observed in the precursor. After pyrolysis at $400^{\circ}C$ and calcination at $840^{\circ}C$ for 4h. the (001) peak of the high Tc phase was cleary observed.

  • Over the past two decades, the electrochemical supercapaictors are receiving growing attention due to their possible applications as power backup in electronic equipment and electrical vehicles. Both of amorphous cobalt oxide and manganese dioxide were prepared by sol-gel process reported in our previous work. Nano-structured supramolecular oligomer of 1,5-diamino anthraquinone(DAAQ) coated metal oxides were successfully prepared by electrochemical oxidation from an acidic non-aqueous medium. We established process parameters of the technique for the formation of nano-structured materials. Furthermore, improved the capacitive properties of the nano structured metal oxide electrodes using controlled solution chemistry. $CoO_2$ and $MnO_2$-based composite electrode showed relatively good electrochemical behaviors in acidic electrolyte system with respect to specific capacity and scan rate dependency

  • Chromium carbides have the excellent wear properties as transition metal carbides. Their tribological applications were studied recently. The nano-sized ceramic could enhance the mechanical and electronical properties of materials. In this study, it was observed to test the wear of the coated surface of nano-sized chromium carbides. The nano-sized chromium carbides were produced by sol-gel processing. Coating surface of produced powders was obtained front plasma spraying. Wear test of coating surface was held increasing temperature. The friction coefficient and the wear loss were testified in dry environment. And the worn surfaces were analyzed by XRD and SEM.

  • Methanol extract of roots of Amblytropis pauciflora Kitagawa showed the antimicrobial activity to three test strains. Antimicrobial spectra of various extracts of Amblytropis pauciflora Kitagawa were tested against 24 strains of bacteria and fungi. The crude methanol extract inhibited the growth of 12 strains of bacteria and Asp. fumigatus with the exception of yeasts. The properties of the antimicrobial substance were very stable under heat(at 12$0^{\circ}C$), acid(pH 3.0) and alkali(pH 11.0) treatment. Only the root harvested in spring showed the antimicrobial activity. Among the components extracted by butanol, ginseng saponin Rg1 and various saponin-like materials were detected by TLC analysis using a plate of silica gel 60F254. The antimicrobial compound was purified by methanol extraction, activated charcoal column chromatography, Sep-pak(C18) pretreatment and reverse phase HPLC. The purified compound was detected at 13.520 min as a single peak(about 98% purity) through the HPLC analysis.

  • Nano-delivery systems, such as nanoparticles, nanoemulsions, and nanoliposomes, are carriers that have been used to enhance the chemical as well as physical stability and bioavailability of bioactive compound. Food-grade nano-delivery system can be produced with edible biopolymers including proteins and carbohydrates. In addition to the low-toxicity, biocompatibility, and biodegradability of these biopolymers, their functional characteristics, such as their ability to bind hydrophobic bioactive compounds and form a gel, make them potential and ideal candidates for the fortification of bioactive compounds in functional dairy foods. This review focuses on different types of nano-delivery systems and edible biopolymers as delivery materials. In addition, the applications of food-grade nano-delivery systems to dairy foods are also described.

  • The Aster tataricus is a chinese traditional medicine called “Ziwan” which has an expectorative and remediable cough action. The anti-oxidant activities of A. tataricus were investigated. The MeOH extract of A. tataricus showed strong anti-oxidant activity in the NBT(nitroblue tetrazolium) method system, and thus fractionated with several solvents in to the EtOAc, n-BuOH, CH$_2$Cl$_2$, H$_2$O fraction. The EtOAc soluble fraction exhibiting strong anti-oxidant activity was further purified by repeated silica gel and sephadex LH-20 column chomatography. (omitted)
