  • Base metal corrosion forms a significant issue during the chemical decontamination of the primary coolant loop in nuclear power plants as it is directly related to the economic and safety viability of decommissioning. In this technical note, potentiodynamic evaluations of several base metals (304 stainless steel, SA106 Grade B carbon steel, and alloy 600) were performed to determine their corrosion behavior during the hydrazine (N2H4)-based reductive ion decontamination (HyBRID) process. The results suggested that N2H4 protected the surface of the base metals in the HyBRID solution, which is primarily composed of H2SO4. The corrosion resistance of the carbon steel was further improved through the addition of CuSO4 to the solution. The corrosion rate of carbon steel in the H2SO4-N2H4-CuSO4 solution was lower than that exhibited in an oxalic acid solution, a commonly used reaction medium during commercial decontamination processes. These results indicate the superiority of the HyBRID process with respect to the base metal stability.

  • This paper investigates the seismic performance of exposed RCFST column-base joints, in which the high-strength steel bars (USD 685) are set through the column and reinforced concrete foundation without any base plate and anchor bolts. Three specimens with different axial force ratios (n = 0, 0.25, and 0.5) were tested under cyclic loadings. Finite element analysis (FEA) models were validated in the basic indexes and failure mode. The hysteresis behavior of the exposed RCFST column-base joints was studied by the parametrical analysis including six parameters: width of column (D), width-thickness ratio (D/t), axial force ratio (n), shear-span ratio (L/D), steel tube strength (fy) and concrete strength (fc). The bending moment of the exposed RCFST column-base joint increased with D, fy and fc. But the D/t and L/D play a little effect on the bending capacity of the new column-base joint. Finally, the calculation formula is proposed to assess the bending moment capacities, and the accuracy and stability of the formula are verified.

  • 마이크로파일은 기초의 지지력 증대와 침하량 저감을 위해 건설분야에서 널리 활용되는 기초이다. 본 기초는 낮은 건설비용, 단순한 시공 프로세스와 비교적 작은 장비로 시공이 가능하다는 장점이 있다. 최근 지지력을 효과적으로 증대시킬 수 있는 선단확장형 마이크로파일이 개발되었다. 본 기초는 수직하중이 재하될 때 마이크로파일 선단부에 설치된 지압구가 팽창하여 주변지반에 작용하는 수평토압을 증가시키며, 이로 인해 기초의 지지력이 향상된다. 하지만, 현재까지 지압구 확장 메커니즘과 지지력 증대효과가 실험적으로 명확히 검증되지 않았다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 지압구의 설치효과를 검증하기 위해 원심모형실험이 수행되었다. 이를 위해, 모래지반과 풍화암으로 구성된 지반을 각각 조성하고, 실제 선단확장형 마이크로파일에 대한 하중재하실험을 수행하였으며, 기초에 수직하중이 작용할 때 지압구 주변에 설치된 토압계를 통해 지압구의 팽창거동을 관찰하였다. 실험 결과, 30kN의 하중이 기초에 작용할 때 모래지반에서는 수직토압대비 수평토압의 증가량(∆σh/∆σ𝜈)이 0.4 - 0.58의 범위를 보였으며, 풍화암지반에서는 ∆σh/∆σ𝜈 = 0.19로 확인되었다. 본 결과를 통해 지압구 확장에 따른 수평토압 증가가 실험적으로 확인되었으며, 이로 인해 마이크로파일의 지지력이 증가될 것으로 판단된다.

  • Two new Cu(II) complexes, $[Cu_2(acpy-mdtc)_2(HBA)(ClO_4)]{\cdot}H_2O$ (1) (acpy-mdtc- = 2-acetylpyridine S-methyldithiocarbamate and $HBA^-$ = benzilic acid anion) and $[Cu_2(acpy-phtsc)_2(HBA)]{\cdot}ClO_4$ (2) (acpy-$phtsc^-$ = 2-acetylpyridine 4-phenyl-3-thiosemicarbazate) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The X-ray analysis reveals that the structures of 1 and 2 are dinuclear copper(II) complexes bridged by two thiolate sulfur atoms of Schiff base ligand and bidentate bridging $HBA^-$ anion. For 1, each of the two copper atoms has different coordination environments. Cu1 adopts a five-coordinate square-pyramidal with a $N_2OS_2$ donor, while Cu2 exhibits a distorted octahedral geometry in a $N_2O_2S_2$ manner. For 2, two Cu(II) ions all have a five-coordinate square-pyramidal with a $N_2OS_2$ donor. In each complex, the Schiff base ligand is coordinated to copper ions as a tridentate thiol mode.

  • 2020년 1월 23일 이후 중국에서 신종 코로나바이러스 감염증(COVID-19)으로 인한 봉쇄 조치가 전국으로 확대되고 있었다. 그러나, 한국에서는 2020년 2월 1-2일에 PM10 질량농도 일평균 최대 88-98 ㎍ m-3의 고농도 연무가 발생하였다. 이 기간에 동아시아 지역은 850 hPa 기온 아노말리가 양(+), 동서류 아노말리는 음(-)으로 온난하고 정체적인 기단의 영향을 받고 있었다. 동아시아 지역의 인위적 배출량 감소에 따른 한국의 PM10 장거리 수송의 영향을 분석하기 위하여 WRF-Chem을 활용하였다. WRF-Chem에 인위적 배출량을 변화 없이 적용한 BASE와 인위적 배출량을 50%로 감소시켜 적용한 CTL의 PM10을 한국의 지상 측정값과 민감도 분석을 수행하였다. CTL에서 PM10의 IOA는 0.71로 BASE의 0.67보다 높게 나타났다. 이것은 중국의 COVID-19 봉쇄 조치로 인해 인위적 배출량이 감소한 것으로 분석된다. 또한, 한국 이외의 지역 배출량을 0으로 설정한 BASE_ZEOK와 CTL_ZEOK를 모의하여 BASE와 CTL에서의 장거리 수송 기여도의 변동을 분석하였다. CTL은 BASE와 비교하여 배출량이 50%로 감소하였지만 PM10 장거리 수송 기여도는 10-20% 감소한 것으로 나타났다. 동아시아 지역의 배출량 감소에 따라 풍하측 한국의 PM10 장거리 수송 기여도 변동이 선형적으로 반응하지 않는 것은 종관 기상 변동이 영향을 주는 것으로 보인다. 2월 1-2일 한국의 고농도 PM10 연무 사례에 대한 CTL에서 PM10 에어로졸 성분의 장거리 수송 기여도는 기타 무기물이 80-90%로 가장 높았고, 질산염은 30-60%, 황산염은 0-20%, 암모늄은 30-60%를 나타내고 있었다. 중국의 봉쇄 조치로 인하여 교통 및 물류 수송이 감소하면서 2차 에어로졸이 감소한 것으로 보인다.

  • This study reports the synthesis of a bi-dentate Schiff base ligand (L), 7-(2-((2-formylbenzylidene) amino)-2-phenylacetamido)-3-methyl-8-oxo-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid, prepared from phthalaldehyde and cephalexin antibiotic. The synthesized Schiff base ligand (L) and the secondary ligand alizarin (Az) are used to prepare the new complexes [M(Az)2(L)] and [Cr(Az)2(L)]Cl, where M = Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II). The mode of bonding of the Schiff base has been characterized by UV-Visible, FT-IR, Mass, 1H-, and 13C-NMR spectroscopic techniques, and micro elemental analysis (CHNS). The complexes were characterized using UV-Vis, FT-IR, molar conductance, magnetic moment, and thermal analysis (TG/DTG). The molar conductance data revealed that the complexes are non-electrolytes except for [Cr(L)(Az)2]Cl, which is an electrolytic type 1:1. The Schiff base and its complexes have been tested for their biological activity against two strains of bacteria and one fungus. When screened against gram-positive and gram-negative pathogens, the Az and L ligands and their complexes showed potential antimicrobial activity.

  • A long, bis(monodentate), linking Schiff-base ligand L (py-CH=N-$C_6H_4$-N=CH-py) was prepared from 1,4-phenylenediamine and 3-pyridinecarboxaldehyde by the Schiff-base condensation. Ligand L has two terminal pyridyl groups capable of coordinating to metals through their nitrogen atoms. In contrast, the same reaction between 1,2-phenylenediamine and 3-pyridinecarboxaldehyde produced a mixture of imidazol isomers (2-pyridin-3-yl-1H-benzoimidazole), which are connected to one another by the N-H…N hydrogen bonding to form a tetramer. From Zn($NO_3)_2{\cdot}6H_2O$ and ligand L under various conditions, one discrete molecule, trans- [Zn($H_2O)_4L_2]{\cdot}(NO_3)_2{\cdot}(MeOH)_2$, and two 1-D zinc polymers, [Zn$(NO_3)(H_2O)_2(L)]{\cdot}(NO_3){\cdot}(H_2O)_2$ and [Zn(L) (OBC)($H_2O$)], were prepared. In ligand L, the N$\ldots$N separation between the terminal pyridyl groups is 13.994 $\AA$, with their nitrogen atoms at the meta positions (3,3’) in a trans manner. The corresponding N$\ldots$N separations in its compounds range from 13.853 to 14.754 $\AA$.

  • PURPOSE. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of incorporating zirconium oxide nanoparticles (nano-ZrO2) in polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) denture base resin on flexural properties at different material thicknesses. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Heat polymerized acrylic resin specimens (N = 120) were fabricated and divided into 4 groups according to denture base thickness (2.5 mm, 2.0 mm, 1.5 mm, 1.0 mm). Each group was subdivided into 3 subgroups (n = 10) according to nano-ZrO2 concentration (0%, 2.5%, and 5%). Flexural strength and elastic modulus were evaluated using a three-point bending test. One-way ANOVA, Tukey's post hoc, and two-way ANOVA were used for data analysis (α = .05). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used for fracture surface analysis and nanoparticles distributions. RESULTS. Groups with 0% nano-ZrO2 showed no significant difference in the flexural strength as thickness decreased (P = .153). The addition of nano-zirconia significantly increased the flexural strength (P < .001). The highest value was with 5% nano-ZrO2 and 2 mm-thickness (125.4 ± 18.3 MPa), followed by 5% nano-ZrO2 and 1.5 mm-thickness (110.3 ± 8.5 MPa). Moreover, the effect of various concentration levels on elastic modulus was statistically significant for 2 mm thickness (P = .001), but the combined effect of thickness and concentration on elastic modulus was insignificant (P = .10). CONCLUSION. Reinforcement of denture base material with nano-ZrO2 significantly increased flexural strength and modulus of elasticity. Reducing material thickness did not decrease flexural strength when nano-ZrO2 was incorporated. In clinical practice, when low thickness of denture base material is indicated, PMMA/nano-ZrO2 could be used with minimum acceptable thickness of 1.5 mm.
