This paper presents the correlation on the contamination degree and weather conditions using the multiple regression of the statistic method. The cotamination is a significant factor in the insulation system. The major factor is natural contamination, and the most is the salt. The salt contamination is occured by the weather conditions. The weather contaminations are wind, precipitation, temperature, relative humidity, etc. The effects of those are different, and the correlation is showed numerically by using the multiple regression method of the statistic method. With this, the estimation of the equivalent salt deposit density(ESDD) becomes possible by the changes of the weather conditions.

In the present study, $TiO_2$ imbedded copper matrix powders have been successfully prepared from the ($CuSO_4+TiO_2+Zn$) composite salt solution. The composite $Cu/TiO_2$ powders were formed by drying the solution at $200{\sim}~400^{\circ}C$ in the hydrogen atmosphere. Photocatalytic characteristics was evaluated by detecting TOC (total organic carbon) amount with TOC analyzer (model 5000A Shimadzu Co). Phase analysis of $Cu/TiO_2$ composite powders was carried out by XRD, DSC and powder size was measured with TEM. The mean particle size of composite powders was about 100 nm and a few zinc and copper oxide phases was included. The reduction ratio of TOC amount was 60% by the composite $Cu/TiO_2$ powders under the UV irradiation for 8 hours.

Crude extracts of 69 marine organisms (27 salt marsh plants and 42 seaweeds) were screened for the inhibitory activity against the protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1) in vitro. The most active extracts were methanol extracts from Derbesia marina (80.6% in inhibitory activity) and Symphycladia latiscula (85.6%) at the concentration of $15{\mu}g/mL$. Methanol extracts of Codium adhaerens and Hisikia fuziformis were moderately inhibitory with 71.2 and 69.1% inhibition, respectively. It was peculiar that only the extracts from seaweeds show inhibitory activity where those from salt marsh plants do not show any significant effect.

To investigate bile salt hydrolase activities of the bacterial strains isolated from fermented milk products, 21 strains of Lactobacillus were tested for their abilities to produced cholic acid from taurocholic and glycocholic acids. The production of cholic acid was measured by HPLC analysis during the growth in broth media for 24hrs. All strains of Lactobacillus acidophilus and L. plantarum deconjugated both taurocholate and glycocholate, whereas none strains of L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, L. casei subsp. casei, L. casei subsp. rhamnosus, L, reuteri did. L. acidophilus stains isolated from yogurts had the higher decojugation activities on glycocholate than taurocholate, however, L. acidophilus 1009 isolated from the human intestine showed the similar deconjugation activities on both taurocholate and glycocholate.

Model for dust and salt transportation from the dried bottom of the Aral Sea is suggested. Theoretical analysis is based on the turbulent diffusion equation for the averaged function of passive impurity concentration. One-layer model of the atmospheric boundary layer is assumed. Impurity precipitation rates are calculated as the functions of the particle size and the distance source of particles. Analytical solutions for the point and two-dimensional sources of impurities are found. Model calculations for salt and sand transport from the Aral Sea basin are made on the basis of 2D source model with a constant intensity.

Lithium-ion batteries are widely used, from lightweight to energy-intensive, from small devices to large ESSs. However, it is sensitive to the surrounding environment and there is a change in performance depending on the temperature change. In this study, the temperature dependence of the charge / discharge characteristics of the battery is shown through simulation and the distribution of the salt concentration in the electrolyte is observed when the sudden temperature change is applied.

This paper present the result of the investigation, the distribution of salt contamination with the influence of. geographical condition. To get the ESDD data, a conventional brush washing method was adapted, and IC(ion chromatography) was used to measure the quantity of anions, such as $Cl^-$ and ${SO_{4}}^{2-}$. And we make an analysis on the distribution of salt contamination with the increase of distance from shore. With 10 month ESDD data, we seek the 95% ESDD value with interpolation method. With these analyses, we had obtained the formulation concerned with the distance from sea. And could know the composition of contamination.

In this study we investigated the acting characteristics of Polymers for electrical insulation by UV radiation and salt water spray treatment. We used the Polymers such as EPDM, SR. PTFE. EVA. We measured contact angle and surface resistance to know the aging characteristic of Polymer surface. And we use SEM to observe the change of the surface shape. Dry flashover voltage test impulse voltage test were carried for the polymer insulator(EVA) . Through this experiment and the analysis we could know the polymers have a good resistance to weathering conditions like as salt spray UV irradiation and mix of them. And we can compare the aging characteristics between Polymers. As a result, we could know that the surface characteristics of PTFE is better than the other. And the degree, electrical characteristics is affected by change of surface shape is not big.

The molten salt electrolysis is applied to reduce titanium dioxide to titanium metal using calcium chloride as an electrolyte and the reaction mechanism of the reduction process is examined by analyzing the reaction products. The process conditions to obtain titanium metal for $900^{\circ}C$ correspond to 2.9~3.2 V and 24 hours. The reaction products for 2.9 V at $900^{\circ}C$ include irregular-shaped titanium oxides such as $Ti_4O_7$, $Ti_3O_5$ and $Ti_2O_3$ and polyhedral $CaTiO_3$. Using these microstructure analysis, the sequential reaction mechanism for the electrochemical reduction of titanium dioxide to titanium is proposed.

This paper presents a molten salt reactor (MSR) design parameter sensitivity study using a nodal dynamic modelling methodology with explicitly modified point kinetics equation and Mann's model for heat transfer. Six parameters that can impact MSR safety are evaluated. A MATLAB-Simulink model inspired by Thorcon's 550MWth MSR is used for parameter evaluations. A safety envelope was formed to encapsulate power, maximum and minimum temperature, and temperature-induced reactivity feedback. The parameters are perturbed by ±30%. The parameters were then ranked by their subsequent impact on the considered safety envelope, which ranks acceptable parameter uncertainty. The model is openly available on GitHub.
