The tunnel structure is widely used for transportation in the mountain area. To reduce the duration of construction and thus the expense, a tunnel excavation is often performed simultaneously with a tunnel lining in in-situ. However, cracking of the tunnel lining may occur arising from the vibrating impact in the excavation process. The present study concerns the role of steel fiber and nylon fibers in tunnel lining concrete to reduce the vibrating impact. As a result it was found that both the nylon fiber and steel fiber improved the durability and physical properties of concrete.

Coating are needed on ophthalmic lenses to enhance both the mechanical durability of the relatively soft plastic surface and the optical performance of lenses. Organic-inorganic hybrid materials as molar ratio of 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane(GPTS), methyltrimethoxysilane(MTMS) and tetraethyl orthosilicate(TEOS) were used to improve the surface characteristics and the optical properties on allyl diglycol carbonate lenses. Coating for these plastics were at $140^{\circ}C$ for 4hrs, applied using the sol-grl process flow-coating technique. The coated lens properties of transmittance, adhesion, pencil hardness, abrasion resistance, hot water resistance and chemical resistance were investigated. The optimum properties was obtained when the ratio of GPTS : MTMS : TEOS was 1:1:2, respectively.

Mesoporous materials are a sort of promising materials with a wide spectrum of applications due to their unique well-defined porous structures that provide high surface area and controllable pore size. Among mesoporous materials, periodic mesoporous organosilicas (PMOs) are highly emerging materials in sense of applications due to their large pore sizes and organic functionality in the frame. The organic functional groups in the frameworks of these solids allow tuning of the surface properties and modification of the bulk properties of the material. This article provides a comprehensive overview of PMOs and discusses their different functionalities, morphology and applications, such as catalysis, environmental applications, and adsorption, for which PMOs have been used after their discovery. The review article will provide fundamental understanding of PMOs and their advanced applications to readers.

The human eye is exposed to UV and visible light. UV light exposure becomes harmful to the eye. Protection for eyes should block all ultraviolet rays. In our study, organic-inorganic hybrid materials have been applied to UV blocking coatings with UV absorbing materials on transparent plastics. The optical properties of UV blocking coatings were investigated in PMMA, CR 39 and PC substrates. In case of all UV absorbers, the transmission of UV light decreases with an increased amount of absorber. Our findings indicate that PMMA significantly reduced the transmission of UV radiation, CR 39 showed moderate decrease, while UV-uncoated PC had some UV blocking properties. Adhesion, hot water resistance and chemical resistance of the UV-coated CR 39 lenses were good. Pencil hardness were 4H. Abrasion resistance were poor.

In this study, the healing performance of hybrid self-healing concrete was investigated by mixing bacterial pellets(BP) and solid phase capsules(SC), respectively, based on organic-inorganic self-healing material(MC). Constant water head permeability test was applied as a method of evaluating the healing performance, and the healing rate and the healed crack width calculated by the equivalent crack width were used as evaluation indicies. As a result of the water permeability test, when the initial crack width was 0.3 mm, the healing rates of MC-BP and MC-SC were 2.1~3.0 %pt higher than that of MC, and the healed crack width of hybrid concrete increased by 0.017~0.018 mm. In conclusion, it was found that the self-healing performance was not significantly improved even if the two types of healing materials are used together.

21세기 정보기반사회에서는 정보처리량의 증가로 인한 대용량 정보 교환을 위하여 신호처리의 고속화/광대역화가 요구되어진다. 완전 광통신망의 구축에 의한 대용량의 광통신을 위해서는 고속이며, 집적화가 가능한 저가의 광전자 소자 개발이 필요하다. 광전자 소자 중 전기-광학 변조 효과를 이용한 광소자의 구현을 위한 소재로서 극성 배향된 비선형 광학 유기고분자 소재는 가공성이 뛰어나 원하는 형태의 광도파로로 제조할 수 있다는 장점에 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 아직 전기광학계수의 향상과 더불어 유기고분자가 가지고 있는 열 및 광화학적 안정성이 낮은 기본적인 문제점과 폴링(poling)에 의해 배향된 극성이 시간에 따라 완화되는 문제의 해결이 요구되고 있다. 이러한 문제점 해결을 위한 기초 연구로 유기물을 졸-겔 매트릭스에 나노 사이즈로 분산하는 방법으로 유기물의 내화학적 안정성을 향상하고자 시도하였다. 잘 알려져 있는 바와 같이 유/무기 하이브리드 졸-겔 재료는 광 투광성이 우수하고 저온에서의 재료 합성과 저가 공정이 가능하여 광기능성 유기물의 호스트(host) 재료로 많이 연구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 MTMS(methyltrimethoxysilane)과 TEOS (tetra-ethoxyorthosilicate)를 0-100 mol%로 혼합하고 가수분해하는 방법으로 친수성/친유성 특성을 제어하여, 분산되는 유기물의 사이즈를 조정하였다. 각 실험 조건에 따른 유기물 분산체의 크기를 SEM 및 TEM으로 관찰하였으며, 나노 사이즈로 분산된 유/무기 졸-겔 코팅막의 광학적 특성을 프리즘 커플러를 이용하여 조사하였다.

Zirconia has white color and physical, chemical stability, also using in high temperature materials and various industrial structural ceramics such as heat insulating materials and refractories due to their low thermal conductivity, excellent strength, toughness, and corrosion resistance. If hydrophobically modified zirconia is introduced into a hydrophobic acrylate coating solution, the hardness, chemical, electrical, and optical properties will be improved due to the better dispersibility of inorganic particle in organic coating media. Thus, we introduced $-CH_3$ group through silylation reaction using either trimethylchlorosilane(TMCS) or hexamethyldisilazane(HMDZ) on zirconia surface. The $Si-CH_3$ peaks derived from TMCS and HMDZ on hydrophobically modified zirconia surface was confirmed by FT-IR ATR spectroscopy, and introduction of silicon was confirmed by FE-SEM/EDS and ICP-AES. In addition, the sedimentation rate result in acrylate monomer of the modified zirconia showed the improved dispersibility. Comparison of the sizes of a pristine and the modified zirconia particles, which were clearly measured not by the normal microscope but by particle size analysis, provided a pulverizing was occurred by physical force during the silylation process. From the BET analysis data, the specific surface area of zirconia was approximately $18m^2/g$ and did not significantly change during modification process.

An organic-inorganic hybrid solar cell fibers with characteristics such as formability, low-cost and tailorability was developed by deposition of C60 and CuPc on fiber surface. In spite of some variation according to the temperature of ITO deposition, the maximum open circuit voltage of 0.39V was attained at $150^{\circ}C$(1000end). The resulting solar cell showed the performances Isc=0.482, Voc=0.320, FF=0.285 ${\eta}_{e}=0.044$% which are comparable to one of other types of solar cells in literature.

In this study, an organic-inorganic hybrid composite of Abaca nanocellulose and titanium dioxide was prepared. Abaca nanocellulose was prepared by oxidizing Abaca cellulose using TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-piperidine-1-oxyl) as a catalyst. Titanium dioxide nanoparticles were prepared by the sol-gel method, and a composite was prepared by hybridizing them with nanocellulose. As a result of comparing the properties of the composite and its physical properties according to the change in manufacturing pH, the effect of pH was very large when combining nanocellulose and titanium dioxide, and the optimal bonding performance was shown at pH 8 in this experimental condition. In addition, the prepared composite showed photocatalytic properties, and the higher the content of titanium dioxide, the higher the hydrophilicity of the composite according to UV light irradiation.
