가역적인 표면 젖음성의 제어가 가능한 스마트 표면은 첨단 센서, 기능성 멤브레인 등 여러 산업분야에 적용될 수 있는 계면제어 기술로써 많은 관심을 받을 것으로 기대된다. 표면의 젖음성은 표면의 화학적 구조와 기하학적 입체 구조에 의해 영향을 받는 데, 특히 외부자극에 의해 소재 물성을 가변시킬 수 있는 스마트 고분자 소재를 나노구조가 제어된 표면에 도입함으로써 표면의 젖음성을 초발수에서 초친수로 가역적으로 전환시킬 수 있는 스마트 표면을 효과적으로 구현할 수 있다. 자극 응답성 스마트 소재는 인가하는 외부자극에 따라 물리적 자극(빛, 온도, 전기, 자기)과 화학적 자극(pH, 용매, 이온)으로 구분할 수 있으며, 이를 복합적으로 적용한 이중/다중 유발 자극에 반응하는 소재가 있다. 본 기고문에서는 외부자극에 응답하는 자극응답성 고분자를 나노 구조 표면에 도입하여 초발수에서 초친수로의 가역적인 젖음성 변화가 가능한 고기능성 스마트 표면의 최근 연구 동향과 미래 전망에 대해 소개하고자 한다. 이런 다양한 외부자극을 이용한 표면 특성의 가역적 제어 기술을 통해 물-오일의 분리, 바이오센서, 약물 전달, 소프트로보틱스와 같은 스마트 소재의 잠재적 발전 가능성 또한 엿볼 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Lipases are well known as the enzymes which catalyze the hydrolysis of ester bonds combining aliphatic chains and glycerol on mono-, di- and triglycerides. Their reactions are characterized by be-ing heterogeneous and catalyzing the water-insoluble substrates. This property has been one of the Hurdles which delayed the application of lipases in fats and oils industry, However, with the development of biological reaction system of which organic solvent is introduced in part or whole as the reaction media, enzymatic manipulation of fats and oils is attracting increasing attention from the academic and industrial sectors. Trials in two-phase system and reversed micellar system to produce fatty acids through enzymatic hydrolysis of triglycerides preyed to be efficient in respect to volumetric productivity, fat hydrolysis rate, product separation, etc. In organic solvent system lipases have been found to have the ability to catalyze aminolysis, transesterification, esterification, thiotransesterification and oximolysis that are virtually impossible to catalyze in water. The organic solvent system is being extensively used in interesterifying glycerides to produce a fat with the modified physical and chemical nature.

In manufacturing of solution-processed organic electronic devices, a spin coating method is frequently used, but which has a big problem. Solvent in a solution has a decisive effect such as physical and chemical damage for successive solution-based film deposition. Such a severe damage by solvent restricts for fabricating building blocks of multi-layered films from solutions. In this work, it will be shown that a proper combination of well-known solvents gives a chance to fabricate multi-layered film, also this new method was applied to make organic field effect transistor. Two types of bottom gate, bottom contact transistors were fabricated, one of which is fabricated by conventional single spin coating method, the other fabricated by double spin coating method. Compared with the electrical characteristics in a single spin coated transistor, the leakage current between source and gate electrode was decreased, ON state current was increased, and the extracted saturation mobility was multiplied more than 2.7 time for double spin coated transistors. It is suggested that the multiple coated gate dielectric structure is more desirable for high performance organic ferroelectric field effect transistors.

Fabrication of monolayer is important method for enhancing physical and chemical characteristics such as light shielding and antireflection while maintaining thin film properties. In previous studies, monolayers were fabricated by various methods on small substrates, but processes were complicated and difficult to form monolayers with large area. We used rod coating equipment with a small amount of coating liquid to form a HCP (hexagonal closed packing) coating of PMMA beads on PET(poly(ethylene terephthalate)) substrate with $20cm{\times}20cm$ size. We observed that changes in morphologies of monolayers by using the solvents with different boiling points and vapor pressures, by adapting surfactants on particles and by applying plasma treatment on substrates. The coverage was increased by 20% by optimizing the coating conditions including meniscus of beads, control of the attraction - repulsion forces and surface energy. This result can potentially be applied to optical films and sensors because it is possible to make a uniform and large-scale monolayer in a simple and rapid manner when it is compared to the methods in previous studies.

Research is being conducted on graphene to provide graphene having both excellent physical as well as electrical properties in addition to unique physical properties. In this study, Hummer's method, which is a representative method for chemical exfoliation, was applied in order to investigate the possibility of the mass production of high-quality graphene oxide. Three types of graphite (graphite, crystalline graphite, and expanded graphite) were used in the preparation of graphene oxide with variations in the amount of potassium permanganate added, reaction temperature, and reaction time. Then a Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), a Raman spectrometer, and a transmission electron microscope (TEM) were used to measure the quality of the prepared graphene oxide. Of the three types of graphite used in this experiment, crystalline graphite showed the highest quality. The prepared graphene oxide was then purified with an organic solvent, and an analysis conducted using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). From the results of the residual values, we were able to confirm that both acid wastewater and wastewater were best purified using cyclohexane. The method for manufacturing graphene oxide as well as the method of purification using organic solvents that are presented in this study are expected to have less of an environmental impact, making them environmentally friendly. This makes them suitable for use in various industrial fields such as the film industry and for heat dissipation and as coating agents.

Chlorine-resistant sulfonated poly(arylene ether sulfone) random copolymer (SPAES)-thin film composite (TFC) membranes for desalination are prepared using monoglyme as a selective solvent, which dissolves SPAES, but should be inert to porous polysulfone layer (e.g., Udel$^{(R)}$). Different from formic acid and diethylene glycol used as other selective solvents, monoglyme is environmentally friendly and has much lower boiling temperature. After a pretreatment of Udel$^{(R)}$ support film in isopropyl alcohol-glycerine mixture to minimize pore penetration leading to fairly reduced water flux, coating of SPAES solution in monoglyme onto the support and stepwise drying processes are conducted for defect-free TFC formation. The transport behavior through SPAES-TFC membranes is observed, correlating with the effects of sulfonation level, protonation, and physical and chemical crosslinking of SPAES selective layers.

이 연구에서는 미국산 R. rhabarbarum L.과 중국산 R. palmatum L.의 줄기 추출물과 그리고 한국산 R. undulatum L.의 뿌리 추출물이 천연항산화제로서의 사용 가능성을 평가하였다. 대황의 페놀화합물을 추출하기 위해서 물, 에탄올, 메탄올이 사용되었다. 에탄올이 대황(Rhubarb)에서 페놀화합물을 추출하는데 가장 효과적인 용매였으며 50% 에탄올은 R. rhabarbarum L. 줄기에, 70% 에탄올은 R. palmatum L.의 줄기에, 80% 에탄올은 R. undulatum L.의 뿌리에서 페놀을 추출하는데 각각 가장 효과적인 용매농도였다. 또한 추출물리 항산화능을 알기 위해 ${\beta}-carotene$ bleaching inhibition activity와 DPPH radical scavenging activity를 측정하였으며 합성항산화제인 BHT와 비교하여 측정하였다. ${\beta}-Carotene$ bleaching inhibition activity 실험에서 추출물의 농도가 증가하면 대황추출물의 항산화능이 역시 증가하였다. 추출물의 농도가 5mg/ml와 10mg/ml 일때 R. undulatum L. 뿌리추출물과 BHT의 항산화능은 유의적 차이는 없었다$(p{\leq}0.05)$. 그러나 DPPH radical scavenging activity에서 R undulatum L. 뿌리추출물이 0.4 mg/mL 농도 이상에서는 BHT 보다 높은 항산화능을 나타내었다. 결과적으로 대황(R. undulatum L.)의 80% 에탄올 추출물이 천연항산화제로의 사용이 가능하였다. 그러나 합성항산화제인 BHT의 식품에 사용농도를 비교하여 볼 때 대황 추출물의 항산화능이 BHT와 동일하기 위해서는 보다 높은 농도를 필요로 하였다.

In order to increase the surface area of electrodes for electrosorption, porous carbon electrodes were fabricated by a wet phase inversion method. A carbon slurry consisting of a mixture of activated carbon powder (ACP), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF), and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) as a solvent was cast directly on a graphite sheet. The cast film was then immersed in pure water for phase inversion. The physical and electrochemical properties of the electrodes were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), porosimetry, and cyclic voltammetry. The SEM images verified that the pores of various sizes were formed uniformly on the electrode surface. The average pore sizes determined for the electrodes fabricated with various NMP contents ranged from 64.2 to 82.4 nm and the size increased as the NMP content increased. All of the voltammograms showed a typical behavior of charging and discharging characteristic at the electric double layer. The electrical capacitance ranged from 3.88 to $5.87F/cm^2$ depending on the NMP contents, and the electrical capacitance increased as the solvent content decreased. The experimental results showed that the solvent content is an important variable controlling pore size and ultimately the capacitance of the electrode.
