Shape and size controlled synthesis of gold particles has been studied by using wet-chemical method. When ${AuCl_4}^-$ in aqueous $HAuCl_4$ precursor was reduced using $Na_2SO_3$ as a reducing agent, mixtures of spherical, triangular and hexagonal particles were prepared in a few minutes. It was found that the shape selective oxidative etching by ${AuCl_4}^-\;+\;Cl^-$ anions and crystal growth took place simultaneously. As the ${AuCl_4}^-$ and $Cl^-$ concentration increased, yields of large triangular and hexagonal plate type particles increased, while the spherical particles decreased in most cases. Possible etching and growth mechanisms are discussed.

산성비의 주요 원인인 이산화황($SO_2$)을 배기가스로부터 효과적으로 제거하기 위한 용매 중 이온성 액체(ionic liquid, IL)의 $SO_2$ 흡수능 (absorption capacity)을 양자화학적 방법을 이용하여 평가했다. 이를 위해 hydroxyl ammonium 계열의 양이온 monoethanolammonium, diethanolammonium 2종과 carboxylate 계열의 음이온 acetate, formate 2종을 조합하여 총 4종의 IL을 연구에 적용했다. $SO_2$가 IL의 pair, 양이온 또는 음이온과 complex를 형성할 때로 구분하여 계산 모델을 세웠으며, 열역학적 상태 변화와 오비탈 상호작용 분석을 통해 흡수능을 평가하였다. 계산 결과, 음이온-$SO_2$ complex를 적용했을 때 formate에 비해 acetate가 $SO_2$ 흡수에 유리할 것으로 분석되었으며, 이는 이전의 실험 연구에서 얻어진 흡수능 경향성과도 잘 맞는다.

In this work, effects of limestone powder on hydration of $C_3A-CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ system was discussed based on the XRD Quantitative analysis, and the possibility of Delayed Ettringite Formation was also discussed. The early hydration of $C_3A$ was delayed by addition of $CaCO_3$ powder. The delay effect was enhanced by increasing of $CaCO_3$ content and finer powder of $CaCO_3$ addition. After consumption of $CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$, the reaction of $CaCO_3$ is started. Delayed Ettringite Formation would take place because monosulfoaluminate is not stable in presence of $CaCO_3$. In order to prevent the delayed ettringite formation in $C_3A-CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O-CaCO_3$ system, the reduction of monosulfoaluminate formation is important. Therefore, by increasing the amount of $CaCO_3$ addition and finer $CaCO_3$ powder addition, the delayed ettringite formation can be prevented.

Quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of spirulina with added tofu were investigated in the presence of different coagulants ($CaSO_4$, $MgCl_2$, Glucono delta lactone (GDL), vinegar). The yield of the spirulina tofu was the highest when coagulated with GDL. The pH of spirulina tofu with $MgCl_2$ was the highest compared to those of other coagulants. The tumidity of spirulina tofu was the highest with $MgCl_2$. In the color analysis of spirulina tofu, the L (lightness) value was the highest with $CaSO_4$, whereas a (redness) value was the highest with $MgCl_2$. C-phycocyanin contents were the highest with the $CaSO_4$. Phycoerythrin of spirulina tofu for vinegar was 0.194 mg/mL, and GDL content was 0.214 mg/mL. Additionally, the antioxidant activity of spirulina tofu was the highest with $MgCl_2$ $IC_{50}$ values of the DPPH radical scavenging activity of spirulina tofu with $MgCl_2$ was 89.2 mg/g, GDL 93.5 mg/mL, $CaSO_4$ 116.7 mg/mL, and vinegar 118.0 mg/mL. The texture analyses (TPA) results showed that hardness was in the order of vinegar>$MgCl_2$>GDL>$CaSO_4$. For the overall acceptability of the preference test, the spirulina tofu that was made using $MgCl_2$ coagulant had the highest score. Based on these results, it is suggested that $MgCl_2$ is the proper coagulant for the preparation of spirulina with added tofu.

Two lanthanide complexes, $[Ln(NO_3)_2(H_2O)_3(L)_2](NO_3)(H_2O)$ {Ln = Eu (1), Tb (2); L = 2-(4-pyridylium)-ethanesulfonate, $(4-pyH)^+-CH_2CH_2-SO_3^-)$}, were prepared from lanthanide nitrate and 4-pyridineethanesulfonic acid in $H_2O$ under microwave-heating conditions. Complexes 1 and 2 are isostructural, and the lanthanide metal in both complexes is coordinated to nine oxygen atoms. The pyridyl nitrogen in the ligand is protonated to give a zwitter ion that possesses an $NH^+$ (pyridyl) positive end and an $SO_3^-$ negative end. All O-H and N-H hydrogen atoms participate in hydrogen bonds to generate a two-dimensional (complex 1) or a three-dimensional network (complex 2). Complex 1 exhibits an intense red emission, whereas complex 2 exhibits an intense green emission in the solid state at room temperature.

This paper describes the investigation into the durability alkali-activated materials(AAM) mortar and paste samples manufactured using fly-ash(FA) and ground granulated blast furnace slag(GGBFS) exposed to a sulfate environment with different GGBFS replace ratios(30, 50 and 100%), sodium silicate modules($Ms[SiO_2/Na_2O]$ 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0). The tests involved immersions into 10% sodium sulfate solution($Na_2SO_4$), 10% magnesium sulfate solution($MgSO_4$), 10% magnesium nitrate solution($Mg(NO_3)_2$) and 5% magnesium nitrate($Mg(NO_3)_2$+5% sodium sulfate solution+$Na_2SO_4$). The evolution of compressive strength, weight, length expansion and microstructural observation such as x-ray diffraction were studied. As a results, in case of immersed in $Na_2SO_4$, $Mg(NO_3)_2$ and $Mg(NO_3)_2+Na_2SO_4$ shows increase in long-term strength. However, for samples immersed in $MgSO_4$, the general observation was that the compressive strength decreased after immersion. The most drastic reduction of compressive strength and expansion of weight and length occurred when GGBFS or Ms ratios were higher. Also, the XRD analysis of samples immersed in magnesium sulfate indicated that expansion of AAM caused by gypsum($CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$) and brucite(MgOH). The results showed that, an additional condition $Mg^{2+}$ in which ${SO_4}^{2-}$ is the presence of a certain concentration, sulfate erosion has to be accelerated.

In this work, we analyzed the viscoelastic characteristics of electrochemically polymerized polypyrrole(PPy) thin film in various electrolyte solutions, $Na_2SO_4,\;Na_2CO_3$ and SDS + $NaClO_4$, using QCA. The characteristics of redox reaction of electrochemically polymerized PPy thin film for 180 sec in each electrolyte, was investigated in 0.1 M $NaClO_4$ electrolyte solution by cyclic voltammetry method. We used one side of quartz crystal electrode as a working electrode and measured the resonant frequency, resonant resistance and current as analytical parameters. As the results, we suggest that electrochemically polymerized PPy thin film in various electrolyte solutions shows tendency changing from elastic characteristics to viscoelastic one in the order of $ClO_4{^{-}}\;+\;DS^-,\;SO_4{^{-2}}$ and $CO_3{^{-2}}$.

The rainwater samples were collected from the 1100 Site of Mt. Halla and Cheju city during the period of March in 1997 to August in 1998, and the major soluble ions were analyzed. The confidence of analytical data was confirmed by using the comparison methods such as ino-balance, electric conductivity and acid fraction, all of which correlation coefficients were above 0.94. The ionic strengths lower than $10^{-4}$ M, the basis for the pure rainwater, were found in 47% and 38% at 1100 Site and Cheju city, respectively. The precipitations in Cheju city were more influenced by the oceanic effect than those in 1100 Site. The acidity contribution was mainly by $SO_4^{2-}$ and $NO_3^-$ in both areas, and the organic acids have contributed to the acidity with only 5~7%. The neutralization factors by $NH_3$ were about 46% at both 1100 site and Cheju city, whereas those by $CaCO_3$ were 11% and 15% at 1100 site and Cheju city respectively, and the free acidity were both about 35% in average. From the MSA analysis, it was found that the air in Cheju island has been influenced by the pollution from the other areas. The sources of the rainwater components in 1100 Site and Cheju city were also studied with a factor analyzing way, and the most probable factors were found to be anthropotgenic, oceanic, and soil-sourced. The results of multiple regression analysis have shown that $SO_4^{2-}$ was dissolved mostly in the form of $H_2SO_4, CaSO_4 and (NH_4)_2SO_4$, and $NO_3^-$ was in the form of $HNO_3, Ca(NO_3)_2 and NH_4NO_3$.

[ $CaSO_4$ ] thermoluminescent phosphors was made by sintring the $CaSO_4$ after doping the transition elements Tm, Pd, Dy, V, Mo, Zr. The maximum Peaks are found in the measured $CaSO_4$(Tm, Pd, Dy, V, Mo, Zr) TL glow curve at $130^{\circ}C,\;110^{\circ}C,\;140^{\circ}C,\;100^{\circ}C$, and $120^{\circ}C$ when the heating rate is $5^{\circ}C/sec$. The activation energy of the main peak has been estimated by the peak shape method. The estimated activation energies are 1.02eV, 1.32eV, 1.12eV, 0.80eV, and 1.17eV, respectively. The thermoluminescence process in $CaSO_4$(Tm, Pd, Dy, V, Mo, Zr)are found to the 2nd order when the main peak of the glow curve is analyzed by peak shape method. The dose responses of $CaSO_4$(Tm, Pd, Dy, V, Mo, Zr) phosphors are linear within $4{\times}10^{-4}{\sim}1Gy$ of X-rays.

The water-soluble components have been analyzed from the total suspended particulate (TSP) collected at Gosan site of Jeju Island for ten years (1997~2006), and the long-term variations of ionic constituent concentrations have been investigated in order to understand the pollution characteristics of atmospheric aerosols. Their mean concentrations were in the order of nss-${SO_4}^{2-}$ > $Na^+$ > ${NO_3}^-$ > $Cl^$ > ${NH_4}^+$ > nss-$Ca^{2+}$ > $K^+$ > $Mg^{2+}$. The ${NO_3}^-$ concentrations had increased somewhat smoothly compared to those of ${SO_4}^{2-}$ for the past 10 years, possibly indicating the recent energy consumption pattern changes in China. The concentrations of ionic aerosol components showed mostly higher values during the Asian Dust storm periods, and the concentration ratios of nss-$Ca^{2+}$, ${NO_3}^-$, and nss-${SO_4}^{2-}$ between the Asian Dust and Non-Asian Dust periods were 6.9, 2.4, and 1.3, respectively. The anthropogenic nss-${SO_4}^{2-}$, ${NO_3}^-$, ${NH_4}^+$ and the soil originated nss-$Ca^{2+}$ components showed high concentrations as the air parcels were moved from the Asia continent, on the other hand, their concentrations were relatively low as moving from the Northern Pacific into the Gosan area.
