Because of the global pollution caused by plastic disposal, demand for eco-friendly transformation in the packaging industry is increased. As part of that, the utilization of polylactic acid (PLA) as a food packaging material is increased. However, it is necessary to improve the crystallinity of PLA by adding nucleating agents or to improve the modulus by adding fillers because of the excessive brittleness of the PLA matrix. Thus, the cellulose nanofiber (CNF) was fabricated and dried to obtain a powder form and applied to the CNF/PLA nanocomposite. The effect of CNF on the morphological, thermal, rheological, and dynamic mechanical properties of the composite was analyzed. We can confirm the impregnated CNF particle in the PLA matrix through the field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis showed that the crystallinity of not annealed CNF/PLA nanocomposite was increased approximately 2 and 4 times in the 1st and 2nd cycle, respectively, with the shift to lower temperature of cold crystallization temperature (T_cc) in the 2nd cycle. Moreover, the crystallinity of annealed CNF/PLA nanocomposite increased by 13.4%, and shifted T_cc was confirmed.

This study has empirically analyzed the effect of government technology development supports on the performance of SME's (Small-and-Medium-Sized Enterprises). To analyze the effects of government technology development supports on the performance of SME's, this paper collected data from 271 Korean SMEs and tested hypothesis on the key questions. The result shows that government technology development supports had a meaningful positive effect on the performance of SMEs in terms of innovation. It was also understood that the closer the ties were with large enterprises, the higher the R&D personnel ratio was. Furthermore, when the SME was a certified venture, the government technology development supports had less influence on the SME's technological innovation. On the other hand, SME's technological innovation performance in relation to the government supports showed an improvement when the business environment of SME's was hostile. This study offers theoretical and practical implications, as it more accurately analyses the effect of government technology development supports on the performance of SME's, for which data were collected and analyzed for the same companies two separate times. Last of all, the limitation of this study is discussed in terms of the sample selection, data collection method, variables measurement method, etc.

The active ingredients of Napttegi Kong(GML, Glycine max landrace), a type of native rare soybeans, were identified, and an ultrasonic extraction method was introduced as an eco-friendly extraction method. Through the component analysis of the Napttegi Kong extract, the epicatechin, which was not found in conventional soybeans, was identified. For effective extraction using ultrasonic, the main extraction conditions were optimized using the response surface analysis method. Through the Box-Behnken design process, 15 experiments were conducted with the extraction temperature, the ratio of extraction solvent/solution, and extraction time as key independent variables. A quadratic regression equation for the two dependent variables, epicatechin content and total isoflavone content, was derived, and the coefficients of determination were found to be high as R² = 0.9939 and R² = 0.9844, respectively, confirming that the correlation showed high significance. The extraction conditions satisfying the maximum expectations of these two dependent variables were predicted. to be 40.4℃ of extraction temperature, 19.3 times of extraction solvent/solution, and 91 sec of extraction time. The expected value and the actual experimental value of the epikatechin content and the total isoflavone content were similar, so it was confirmed that this experimental method is a highly reliable optimization model.

매립지에서 유기물의 분해로 발생되는 매립가스는 악취 등으로 인한 대기오염뿐만 아니라 온난화지수가 21인 메탄이 약 50vol% 포함되어 있어 지구온난화에 큰 영향을 미친다. 하지만 매립가스를 에너지원으로 활용하면 대기오염저감, 지구온난화 감소, 대체에너지원 확보뿐만 아니라 CDM사업 등과 연계하여 부가수익창출이 가능하다. 현재 국내에는 약 242개의 폐기물매립지가 있는데, 이중 매립가스를 활용하는 곳은 단지 14개소로 개별 경제성이 있는 대형매립지에서만 자원화시설을 설치하여 운영 중이며 그 외 매립지에서는 매립가스를 소각 또는 단순 대기 방출하여 대기오염유발과 동시에 대체에너지원 미활용으로 국가차원에서 큰 손실이므로 이를 활용할 수 있는 기술개발이 시급하다. 본 연구에서는 중소규모 매립지에서 발생하는 매립가스를 중심적환장으로 이송하여 경제성을 가지는 에너지원으로 활용할 수 있는 기술개발을 목표로 하이드레이트 기술을 접목한 기초연구를 수행하였다. 매립지에서 매립가스가 생성되는 과정에 표층부의 균열 및 차수막의 손상과 포집하는 공정에서 블로워 등의 사용으로 질소가 다량 포함되며 질소의 경우 상당히 높은 압력과 낮은 온도에서 하이드레이트를 형성하므로, 매립가스 하이드레이트 형성시 질소의 영향에 대해 알아보았다. $CH_4+CO_2$ System과 $CH_4+O_2+N$ System에 대하여 각각의 실험조건에서 Kinetic을 측정하였으며, 실험전후의 가스 조성을 Gas Chromatography로 정성, 정량 분석하였다. 실험결과 매립가스에 공기가 유입될 경우, 질소의 영향으로 하이드레이트 생성조건이 가압되었고 하이드레이트 내 메탄의 함량비율이 줄어들었다.

Effects of CH₄/H₂ flow rate ratio, chuck bias and microwave power on the structural properties and particle densities of diamond thin films deposited on Ti substrates in microwave plasma CVD were examined. High quality diamond thin films were deposited on Ti substrates in 2∼3 CH₄ Vol.% conditions due to the preferential formation of sp³-bonus ana selective removal of sp²-bonus in the CH₄/H₂ mixtures, and the mechanism for the formation of diamond particles on Ti was analysed. Diamond particle density increased with increasing negative chuck bias to Ti substrate due to bias-enhanced nucleation of diamond and the threshold voltage was found at ∼-50 V. With increasing microwave power the evolution from micro-crystalline graphite layer to diamond layer was observed.

The effects of some additives (black liquor, NaOH, water and wood) on the conversion of coal and product were investigated in the lab-scale, high pressure reacting system around 375$^{\circ}C$. The addition of black liquor enhances the coal conversion yield about 38.6%, which is mainly due to NaOH in black liquor. Also, sulfur of the black liquor in coal liquefaction process evolved hydrogen sulfide, which causes the odor problem. Addition of water in coal liquefaction increased CO$_2$content in the gas phase, and low boiling range components in liquid products. Coprocessing of wood and coal at 400$^{\circ}C$ increased yield of liquid product about 8%, but higher temperature above 400$^{\circ}C$ reduced liquid product due to increase of gas products.

On March 2011, an annual salary plan was applied to new faculty members in National Colleges and Universities. In 2015, all tenured faculty members will receive salaries based on annual performance evaluations. The efforts and accomplishments of faculty are normally assessed according to a standard formula of 40% teaching, 40% research and 20% service. In almost all colleges and universities, student course evaluations may be considered as the only measure of the perceived quality of the courses offered by the faculty member. The mandatory course evaluations are becoming prevalent in Korea. The results of course evaluations do not reflect the fairness and the appropriateness of the quality of the course taught by the faculty member and should not be considered under the teaching evaluation criteria.

In this study, the flame temperature distribution of the diffusion flame burner for SiO₂ deposition was analyzed by the computational fluid analysis. This corresponds to the previous step for simulating the SiO₂ preform deposition process for manufacturing optical fibers using environmentally friendly raw materials. In order to model premixed combustion, heat flow, convection, and chemical reactions were considered, and Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations and k-ω models were used. As a result, the temperature distribution of the flame showed a tendency to increase the distance from the nozzle surface to the maximum temperature when the flow rate of the auxiliary oxygen increased. In addition, it was confirmed that the temperature distribution due to incomplete combustion was large in the combustion reaction with a large equivalence ratio of the mixed gas.
