In this work, we fabricated PS-b-P4VP block copolymer membranes from self-assembly and non-solvent induced phase separation (SNIPS), which combines the block copolymer self-assembly and conventional NIPS process. While previous studies mostly focused on the fabrication of well-defined structures, we systematically examined various processing parameters such as polymer concentration, solvent evaporation duration, solvent composition, and humidity, to optimized the membrane structures. As a result, the morphology of PS-b-P4VP membranes was optimized at a certain polymer concentration in solution and composition of volatile solvent at low humidity conditions, resulting in SNIPS separation membranes with well-defined nanopores on the surface, 75% of membrane porosity, and 18% of surface porosity.

As an increase in the amount of RAP, there are growing interests in recycling asphalt concrete. In case of using the RAP as recycled asphalt pavement, it tends to be quality deteriorate. Therefore, the amount of RAP using is advised to be limited or has to be used with rejuvenator. In this study, asphalt mixture containing WMRA was analyzed to be used up to 50% for the sake of convenience on the process. As the results of evaluation, there was no significant difference in case of using 30% of RAP in the test of Marshall stability. However, in case of WMRA using up to 50%, it was satisfied criteria by flow value at 34.7. Further, result of toughness test was found that the crack resistance showed 55% higher than using straight asphalt when using WMRA binder up to 50%. According to the results of directly comparing crack resistance through repeated direct tensile test, it was shown that the fatigue crack resistance of WMRA pavement was increased by 263%. Therefore, it was shown that WMRA binder was effective in recycling RAP because WMRA binder could increase the percentage of RAP using up to 50%.

This study carried out an experiment in order to compare thermal characteristics after collecting dust generated in the process of disposing of waste tire, plywood flour in the process of manufacturing plywood, salicylic acid dust in the process of manufacturing functional soap, and dust in the process of manufacturing wheat powder, which has potential fire and explosion hazard. According to the results of experiment, the analysis showed that all samples subject to the experiment were in the condition where heat flux decreased and temperature decreased as the quantity of added talc was increased. This shows that decomposition rate decreased, and hazard decreased. However, in all of samples subject to the experiment, as heating rate increased, endothermic onset temperature moved to the low-temperature part, and the amount of absorbed heat was largely increased. This showed that the decomposition hazard of sample increased as heating rate increased, according to the analysis. Besides, TGA experiment results showed that thermal stability was secured because total weight loss decreased as the amount of talc was increased for all samples subject to the experiment regarding the ratio of weight loss. It is expected that the continuous research and supplementation of dust explosion mechanism in the future will contribute to the establishment of measures for the effective dust explosion prevention.

최근 들어 분리공정의 발달과 산업의 고도화에 따라 기체 및 액체분리의 중요성이 강조되면서 열적, 화학적 그리고 기계적 안정성이 좋으며, 수명이 길고, 세척과 재생이 용이하며, 미생물에 의한 손상이 없는 무기막에 대한 연구가 진행중이다. 무기막은 기공의 크기에 따라 크게 다공성 막과 비다공성 막의 두 종류로 구분된다. 비다공성 금속막은 특정 기체에만 투과성을 가지며, 이때 기체는 용해-확산(solution-diffusion)기구에 의해 금속막을 투과하므로 특정기체에 대한 선택도는 매우 크나 투과도가 매우 작고 가격이 비싼 단점을 가지고 있다. 다공성 막은 기체 투과율이 큰 반면 기체 선택도가 작은 단점을 가지고 있다. 현재 기체분리에 사용되고 있는 무기막은 기공크기가 40${\AA}$ 이상으로 기체 분리가 Kundsen diffusion에 의해 이루어지므로, 기체 투과도는 큰 반면에 기체에 대한 선택도는 그리 크지 않다. 따라서 최근 들어서는 다공성 담체에 기공이 작은 ($d_{pore}<20{\AA}$)박막을 담지시켜 기체의 분리 선택도를 향상시키기 위한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 유기금속 화학증착법(metal-organic chemical vapor deposition:MOCVD)을 이용하여 수소 선택성을 가지는 $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$ 복합막을 비율별로 제조하여 증착속도를 알아보고, 열과 수분에 노출시켜 박막의 기체투과도 변화를 살펴보았다.

TOC, which can measure more than 90% of organic substances, can be measured quickly and easily,replacing BOD and COD, which were indicators of organic pollutants. According to water quality pollution control standards, when measuring TOC, if the inorganic carbon ratio in the sample is over 50%, the NPOC (Non-Purgeable Organic Carbon) method should be used. If volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are present at a certain concentration, the TC-IC (subtracting inorganic carbon from total carbon) method should be used. To validate the limitations of these analytical conditions, experiments were conducted by varying the ratio of TOC to IC in purified water and measuring the concentration of TOC in test solutions. The results showed no significant difference between the TC-IC method and the NPOC method. When measuring samples with added VOC standard solutions, it was observed that the carbon loss due to purging was not significant when using the NPOC method. Therefore, it is concluded that the choice of analytical method does not lead to significant differences when VOCs are present in the sample. To account for potential variations in results based on water quality pollution control standards and regulations regarding the approval and testing of environmental measurement devices, a comparison of field sample concentration values was made using two widely used types of TOC analyzers in Korea. The results showed variations of 0.02 to 0.83 mg/L between methods depending on the manufacturer, highlighting the need for caution when selecting an instrument.

In order to manufacture a semiconductor circuit, etching, cleaning, and deposition processes are repeated. During these processes, the inside of the processing chamber is exposed to corrosive plasma. Therefore, the coating of the inner wall of the semiconductor equipment with a plasma-resistant material has been attempted to minimize the etching of the coating and particle contaminant generation. In this study, we mixed AlF₃ powder with the solid-state reacted yttrium oxyfluoride (YOF) in order to increase plasma-etching resistance of the plasma spray coated YOF layer. Effects of the mixing ratio of AlF₃ with YOF powder on crystal structure, microstructure and chemical composition were investigated using XRD and FE-SEM. The plasma-etching ratios of the plasma-spray coated layers were calculated and correlation with AlF₃ mixing ratio was analyzed.

In this study, dietary fiber contents in cereals and pulses were determined by Mongeau-Brassard method to compare those to the AOAC officied method. The average total dietary fiber (TDF) contents by AOAC official method were 3% for cereals and 21% for pulses. The average ratios of soluble dietary fiber contents to TDF contents were 40% for cereals and 43% for pulses. The differences between TDF values (dry matter basis) by two methods were 0.1%-1.0% for cereals and 1.0-7.0% for pulses. The differences between two methods were caused by residual protein in fiber by Mongeau-Brassard method and by residual starch in fiber by AOAC official method. TDF\\error boundary values by Mongeau-Brassard method were little higher than those by AOAC official method. But seven foods except highly milled rice, brown rice and mungbean were F/Fc>1. Therefore, Mongeau-Brassard method was evaluated as precise as AOAC official method.

When designing the size of a heavy maintenance shop for rolling stock, it is required to arrange buildings and facilities in the minimum site so as to improve the maintenance efficiency. However, the fluctuation rate (hereinafter "allowance rate") on which factors such as service and maintenance fluctuation should be applied when estimating the size of the maintenance shop has been used without verification. The objective of the study is to calculate a reasonable allowance rate and to review its appropriateness through the analysis of the facilities layout and process simulation to absorb the above elements into the staying time in the heavy maintenance shop. Since the working time, in this study, is assumed to be average working time, 10~20% was given to the standard deviation of working time in consideration of difference between workers, and possible allowance rate was drawn by analysis of the simulation results. In the future, it is required to optimize the size of the shop by applying appropriate allowance rate through scientific review of such factors as O&M plan, R/S reserve rate, capability of the shop, outsourcing rate, standard work amount, and so on.

Mo-Cu 합금은 열전도도, 전기전도도가 우수하고 합금조성에 따라 열팽창계수의 조절이 가능하여 반도체소재, 방열소재, 접점소재 등에 적용가능성이 높은 재료로 주목받고 있다. 또한 상태도 상에서 고용도가 전혀 없기 때문에 박막을 제작하였을 경우, 나노 복합체 형성이 용이하고 질소 분위기에서는 MoN-Cu로 상분리가 가능하여 하드상과 소프트상의 물성을 동시에 보유한 박막 제작이 가능하다. 또한 고온에서 산화반응에 의해 생기는 $MoO_3$, $CuO_3$와 같은 준안정상의 산화물들은 육방정계 구조(HCP)를 가지며 전단특성이 우수하여 자동차 저마찰 코팅재료로써 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 반면, Mo-Cu 는 상호간에 고상은 물론 액상에서도 고용도가 전혀 없기 때문에 일반적인 방법으로는 합금화 또는 복합화가 어렵다. 또한 Mo-Cu 박막을 제작할 경우 복수의 타겟을 이용해야 하기 때문에 성분조절과 구조적 제어가 불리하고 공정의 복잡화라는 단점을 가지고 있으며 추가적으로 다른 원소를 첨가하여 3원계, 4원계 이상의 박막을 형성하는 것에 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 위와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 상호간의 고용도가 없는 재료의 합금화가 용이한 기계적 합금화법(Mechanical Alloying)을 이용하여 Mo-Cu 합금분말을 제조하였고, 준안정상태의 구조의 유지가 가능한 방전 플라즈마 소결법(Spark Plasma Sintering)을 이용하여 합금타겟을 제작하였다. Mo-Cu 박막은 제작된 합금타겟을 사용하여 DC 스퍼터링 공정으로 제작하였다. Mo-Cu 박막의 공정조건으로는 타겟조성, 공정분위기, 가스 비율로 정하여 실험을 진행하였다. 제작된 박막은 자동차 코팅재료로써의 적용가능성을 보기 위해서 내열성, 내식성, 내마모성의 특성을 평가하였다.

종래의 흑연 위주 연료전지 분리판 개발되어 최근 고분자 전해질 막 연료전지가 높은 전력, 낮은 배기 가스 배출, 낮은 작동 온도로 자동차 산업에서 상당한 주목을 받고 있다. 요구사항은 높은 전기 전도도, 높은 내식성, 낮은 가스 투과성, 낮은 무게, 쉬운 가공, 낮은 제조비용이다. Thin film Cr 장비로 저항가열 furnace, sputter 등이 사용된다. 연료전지 분리판의 고전도도, 내부식성 보호막의 고속 증착을 위한 새로운 증착원으로 스퍼터 - 승화형 소스의 가능성을 유도 결합 플라즈마에 금속 봉을 직류 바이어스 함으로써 시도하였다. 유도 결합 플라즈마를 이용하여 승화증착 시스템을 사용하여 OES (SQ-2000)와 QMS (CPM-300)를 사용하여 $N_2$ flow에 따른 유도 결합 플라즈마를 이용한 스퍼터-승화증착 시스템을 사용 하여도 균일한 공정을 하는 것을 확인 하였다. 5 mTorr의 Ar 유도 결합 플라즈마를 2.4 MHz, 500 W로 유지하면서 직류 바이어스 전력을 30 W (900 V, 0.02 A) 인가하고, $N_2$의 유량을 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 SCCM로 변화를 주어 특성을 분석하였다. MID (Multiple Ion Detection) mode에서 유도결합 플라즈마를 이용한 스퍼터-승화 증착 장비를 사용하여 CrN thin flim 성장시켰고, deposition rate은 44.8 nm/min으로 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 $N_2$의 유량이 증가할 수록 bias voltage가 증가하는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. OES time acquisition을 이용한 공정 분석에서는 $N_2$ 유량을 off 하였을 때 Ar, Cr의 중성 intensity peak이 상승하였고, 시간 경과에 따라 sublimation에 의한 영향이 없는 것을 확인 할 수가 있었다. XRD data에서는 질소 유량이 증가함에 따라 $Cr_2N$이 감소하고, CrN이 증가하는 것을 확인할 수가 있었다. 결정배향성과 Morphology는 다결정 재료의 경도에 영향을 주는 인자이다. CrN 결정 구조의 경우는 (200)면이 경도가 제일 높은데 (200)면에서 성장한 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 잔류가스 분석 결과로는 일정한 Ar의 유량을 흘렸을 때 $N_2$의 변화량이 비례적인 경향이 보이는 것을 확인 할수 있었다. 또한 $N_2$가 흐르면서도 유도 결합 플라즈마를 이용한 스퍼터-승화 증착 시스템을 사용하면 일정한 공정을 하는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 질소의 분압이 유량에 따라서 $3.0{\times}10^{-10}$ Torr에서 $1.65{\times}10^{-9} $Torr까지 일정한 비율로 증가한다. 즉, 이 시스템으로 양산장비 설계를 하여도 가능 하다는 것을 말해준다.
