메탄, 아세틸렌, hexamethyldisiloxane(HMDSO) 및 HMDSO+산소를 플라스마 중합시켜 식품포장용으로 사용되고 있는 저밀도 폴리에틸렌(LDPE) 필름의 표면에 얇은 박막을 코팅하여 LDPE 필름의 차단성을 향상시키고자 하였다. 산소에 대한 차단성은 HMDSO+산소(유량 : 0.6+9.0 SCCM) 플라스마로 40 W에서 10분간 코팅할 경우 가장 크게 향상되어 산소 투과도가 18.6배까지 감소되었으며, 이산화탄소와 수분에 대한 차단성은 아세틸렌(유량 : 0.75 SCCM) 플라스마로 10 W에서 10분간 코팅할 경우 가장 크게 향상되어 이산화탄소와 수분 투과도가 각각 12.0배와 3.0배까지 감소되었다. 또한, 이렇게 코팅된 필름을 사용하여 방울토마토, 오이, 팽이버섯 등을 포장할 경우, 신선도 유지기간이 코팅 전에 비하여 $1.5{\sim}3.0$배까지 연장되었다.

Owing to advantages of polymeric materials for hydrogen tank liner like light-weight property and high specific strength, polymer based composites have gained much attention. Despite of many benefits, polymeric materials for fuel cell tank cause problems which is critical to applications as low gas barrier property, and poor processability when adding fillers. For these reasons, improving gas barrier property of polymer composites is required to study for expanding application fields. This work presents impermeable polymer nanocomposites by introducing thin barrier coating using layer by layer (LBL) deposition method. Also, bi-layered and quad-layered nanocomposites were fabricated and compared for identifying relationship between deposition step and gas barrier property. Reduction in gas permeability was observed without interrupting mechanical property and processability. It is discussed that proper coating conditions were suggested when different coating materials and deposition steps were applied. We investigated morphology, gas barrier property and mechanical properties of fabricated nanocomposites by FE-SEM, Oxygen permeation analyzer, UTM, respectively. In addition, we revealed the mechanism of barrier performance of LBL coating using materials which have high aspect ratio.

본 연구에서는 블렌드 내의 분산상을 잘 발달된 판상 구조로 발현시켜 폴리프로필렌 (PP)/에틸렌 비닐알코올 공중합체 (EVOH) 블렌드의 차단 성질을 향상시키기 위하여 필름 제조 공정으로써 이축연신 공정을 사용하였다. 분산상 수지와 연속상 수지의 점도비로부터 용융 압출 공정시 변형의 정도를 파악하기 위하여 각 수지의 유변물성을 측정하였으며, 상용화제 함량과 연신 배율 및 연신 온도 등이 이축연신 블렌드 필름의 산소 투과도와 모폴로지에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. l5 wt%의 EVOH를 첨가한 PP/EVOH 블렌드 필름의 산소차단성은 EVOH 분산상이 이축연신에 의해 넓은 면적의 판상구조로 발현되어 순수 PP에 비해 10배 정도까지 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 모폴로지를 조절하친 두 상간의 계면결합력을 증진시키기 위하여 PP-g-MAH와 ionomer를 사용한 결과, 차단 효과를 효과적으로 향상시키기 위해서는 상용화제를 블렌드에 최적의 함량으로 첨가해야 한다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 또한 높은 연신 배율과 연신 온도로 이축연신하여 제조된 블렌드 필름에서 더욱 뚜렷한 판상 모폴로지가 관찰되었으며, 차단효과는 증가한 것으로 나타났다.

Rf 마그네트론 반응성 스퍼터링법으로 $RuO_2$박막을 Si 및 Ru/Si 기판 위에 증착한 뒤 산소 분위기 (1atm)에서 열처리를 하여 RuO$_2$박막의 열적 안정성 및 확산방지 특성을 연구하였다.$ RuO_2$박막은 산소 분위기 $700^{\circ}C$에서 10분까지 안정하여, 산소와 실리콘에 대한 우수한 확산방지 특성을 나타내었다 $750^{\circ}C$ 열처리시, 우선 성장 방위에 관계없이 RuO$_2$박막 표면 및 내부에서 휘발 반응이 일어남과 동시에 확산방지 특성은 저하되었다. 그러나 80$0^{\circ}C$ 열처리 시에는 $750^{\circ}C$ 열처리와는 다른 미세구조를 나타내었다. 이러한 열처리 온도에 따른 휘발반응에는 RuO$_2$의 표면 결함구조인 $RuO_3$와 증착시 박막내 함유된 과잉산소에 의한 결함 구조가 영향을 주는 것으로 판단된다.

Powdered infant formula is susceptible to oxidation in the presence of oxygen. Even though the product is usually packaged in nitrogen atmosphere, the oxygen ingress through the package layer may occur in case of flexible pouches and affects the oxidation of the product. $O_2$ barrier of the package is thus important variable to protect the product from oxidative deterioration. $O_2$ barrier property was investigated for aluminum-laminated small pillow packs of $3.5{\times}17.5cm$. Storage temperature and combination of primary and secondary packages were evaluated as variables affecting the barrier for conditions of empty pouch flushed with nitrogen. Apparent oxygen transmission rate of the primary package exposed to air was $2.32{\times}10^{-3}mL\;(STP)\;atm^{-1}\;d^{-1}$ at $30^{\circ}C$ and its temperature dependence could be explained by activation energy of $28.5kJ\;mol^{-1}$ in Arrhenius relationship. The additional secondary package of nylon/PE film containing 20 primary packages was ineffective in modulating package $O_2$ transmission and was only marginally helpful when combined with oxygen scavenger. The same was true in suppressing the product oxidation when the primary package was filled with 14 g of the formula.

Gas barrier coating from dense thin film deposition has been one of the important applications such as food-packaging and organic display. Especially for food-packaging, plastic container has been widely used due to its low price and high through-put in mass production. However, the plastic container with low surface energy like polypropylene (PP) has been limited to apply gas barrier coating. That is because a gas barrier coating could not adhere to PP due to its too low surface energy and high porosity of PP. In this research, we applied carbon coating consisting of Si and O as an interlayer between silicon oxide (SiOx) and PP. A carbon layer was found to provide better adhesion, which was experimentally proved by oxygen transmission rate (OTR) and SEM images. However, we also found that there is a limitation in the maximum thickness of a carbon layer and SiOx film due to their high stress level. For this conflict, we obtain the optimal thickness of a carbon layer and SiOx film showing optimal gas barrier property.

Fuel Cell is used stacking metal or polymer substrate. This hydro property of substrate surface is very important. Usually, surface property is hydrophilic. The surface oxidation of SUS is investigated through plasma treatments with an atmospheric-pressure dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) for increasing hydrophilic property. The plasma process makes an experiment under various operating conditions of the DBD, which operating conditions are treatment time, plasma gas mixture ratio, the plasma source supply frequency. Two kinds of SUS substrate, SUS-304 and SUS 316L, were used. Discharge frequency has a crucial impact on equipment performance and gas treatment. After the plasma treatment of a SUS plate, highly improved wettability was noted. But, when high oxygen supply, the substrate damaged seriously.

컴퓨터 시스템의 성능 및 다양한 전산모사 프로그램의 발전으로 더 복잡한 원소로 이루어진 화학시스템의 해석이 가능해지고, 그에 따라 분자동역학 전사모사를 활용한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 특히, 기존에는 실험위주로 진행되던 고분자 막에 대한 기체 투과 특성을 계산하는 연구가 관심을 받고 있고, 식품포장, 의약품등에 사용되고 있는 기체차단성 막에 대한 분자동역학 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. 최근 실크 피브로인을 이용해 코팅막을 만들었을 때 기체 차단 효과가 나타난다는 보고가 있었고, 본 연구에서는 이러한 실크 피브로인을 활용해 복합막을 만들었을 때 산소 차단 효과가 나타나는지 확인하고자 분자동역학 전산모사를 이용해 연구를 진행하였다. 단일 모델을 제작하고 기체 투과 특성을 계산하고 실험값과 비교를 통해 모델이 실제 실험 결과를 반영하는 것을 확인하였고, 실제 복합막 모델을 만들어 고분자 내에서 기체 이동경로 분석을 진행한 결과 산소 분자가 피브로인 영역을 통과하지 못하고 막히는 것을 보여주었다. 따라서, 실크 피브로인이 도입된 복합막이 산소 차단 성능이 우수하여, 식품포장 등에 유용할 것으로 기대된다.

In this study, the silica-based hybrid material with high barrier property was prepared by incorporating ethylene-vinyl alcohol (EVOH) copolymer, which has been utilized as packaging materials due to its superior gas permeation resistance, during sol-gel process. In preparation of this EVOH/$SiO_2$ hybrid coating materials, the (3-glycidoxy-propyl)-trimethoxysilane (GPTMS) as a silane coupling agent was employed to promote interfacial adhesion between organic and inorganic phases. As confirmed from FT-IR analysis, the physical interaction between two phases was improved due to the increased hydrogen bonding, resulting in homogeneous microstructure with dispersion of nano-sized silica particles. However, depending on the range of content of added silane coupling agent (GPTMS), micro-phase separated microstructure in the hybrid could be observed due to insufficient interfacial attraction or possibility of polymerization reaction of epoxide ring in GPTMS. The oxygen barrier property of the mono-layer coated BOPP (biaxially oriented polypropylene) film was examined for the hybrids containing various GPTMS contents. Consequently, it is revealed that GPTMS should be used in an optimum level of content to produce the high barrier EVOH/$SiO_2$ hybrid material with an improved optical transparency and homogeneous phase morphology.

We investigated the effects of operating variables, such as electrical. reactor and gas parameters on toluene removal and discharge property in the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) process. The toluene removal was initiated with the energy transfer to the reactor by loading of voltages higher than the discharge onset value. The energy transfer and toluene removal increased with the applied voltage. Higher removal rate was observed with smooth surface electrode despite of lower energy transfer compared with the coarse electrode, because more uniform discharge can be obtained on smooth surface state. The decrease of dielectric material thickness enhanced the removal efficiency by increasing the discharge potential. The toluene removal efficiency decreased with the increase of the inlet concentration. The increase of gas retention time enhanced the removal efficiency by the increase of energy density. The oxygen and humidity contents seem to exert significant influences on the toluene removal by dominating the generation of electrons, ions, and radicals which are key factors in the removal mechanism.
