Biodegradable microsphere containing bovine serum albumine (BSA) as a model drug were prepared with the microgel based on poly(caprolactone diol) by a modified solvent evaporation method. The influence of the stirring speed, the concentration of microgel and the mixing rate but increased with increasing the concentration of microgel in methylene chloride. The biodegradability of microsphere in 100 unit/mL of lipase solution was investigated. A lot of small pores appeared on the surface of microsphere after 3 hours of incubation time and the pores and cracks were developed with increasing the incubation time and microsphere lost their own shape after 36 hours of incubation time.

The demand for smaller, faster, and multi-functional mobile devices in increasing at a rapidly increasing rate. In response to these trends, Stacked Chip Scale Package (SCSP) is used widely in the assembly industry. A film type adhesive called die attach film (DAF) is used widely for bonding chips in SCSP. The DAF requires high flowability at high die attachment temperatures for bonding chips on organic substrates, where the DAF needs to feel the gap depth, or for bonding the same sized dies, where the DAF needs to penetrate bonding wires. In this study, the mixture design of experiment (DOE) was performed for three raw materials to obtain the optimized DAF recipe for low elastic modulus at high temperature. Three components are acrylic polymer (SG-P3) and two solid epoxy resins (YD011 and YDCN500-1P) with different softening points. According to the DOE results, the elastic modulus at high temperature was influenced greatly by SG-P3. The elastic modulus at $100^{\circ}C$ decreased from 1.0 MPa to 0.2 MPa as the amount of SG-P3 was decreased by 20%. In contrast, the elastic modulus at room temperature was dominated by YD011, an epoxy with a higher softening point. The optimized DAF recipe showed approximately 98.4% pickup performance when a UV dicing tape was used. A DAF crack that occurred in curing was effectively suppressed through optimization of the cure accelerator amount and two-step cure schedule. The imizadole type accelerator showed better performance than the amine type accelerator.

Hydrogen energy is emerging as an alternative to the depletion of fossil fuels and environmental problems, and the use of hydrogen vehicles is increasing in the automobile industry as well. However, since hydrogen has a wide flammability limit of 4 to 75%, there is a high concern about safety in case of a hydrogen car accident. In particular, in semi-enclosed spaces such as tunnels and underground parking lots, a fire or explosion accompanied by hydrogen leakage is highly likely to cause a major accident. Therefore, it is necessary to review hydrogen safety through analysis of flammability areas caused by hydrogen leakage. Therefore, in this study, the effect of the air velocity in the tunnel on the flammability area was investigated by analyzing the hydrogen concentration according to the hydrogen leakage conditions of hydrogen vehicles and the air velocity in the tunnel in a road tunnel with standard section. Hydrogen leakage conditions were set as one tank leaking and three tanks leaking through the TPRD at the same time and a condition in which a large crack occurred and leaked. And the air velocity in the tunnel were considered 0, 1, 2.5, and 4.0 m/s. As a result of the analysis of the flammability area, it is shown that when the air velocity of 1 m/s or more exists, it is reduced by up to 25% compared to the case of air velocity of 0 m/s. But there is little effect of reducing the flammability area according to the increase of the wind speed. In particular, when a large crack occurs and completely leaks in about 2.5 seconds, the flammability area slightly increases as the air velocity increases. It was found that in the case of downward ejection, hydrogen gas remains under the vehicle for a considerably long time.

Ternary phased graphene/silica/EVOH nanocomposite coating materials were prepared via sol-gel process and solution blending process. From both SEM observations and XRD analysis, the exfoliated structure and dispersion state of graphene nanosheets and silica particles in the nanocomposites as well as the intercalated and exfoliated structure of the prepared graphene oxide were confirmed. The incorporation of GrO and silica at appropriate content resulted in remarkable improvement in oxygen barrier property of the ternary phased nanocompoiste-coated BOPP films, compared with that of binary(silica/EVOH) phased nanocomposite coating films, however, at excess amount of GrO and silica, very slight variation was observed due to incomplete exfoliation, dispersion of graphene tactoids, and formation of micro cracks in the silica clusters. In addition, the transparency of nanocomposite-coated film was investigated by measuring the light transmittance as a function of GrO contents, suggesting the possibility for the application of food packaging films.

$SiO_2$ buffer layer (100 nm) has been deposited on PET substrate by electron beam evaporation. And then, IZTO (In-Zn-Sn-O) thin film has been deposited on $SiO_2$/PET substrate with different RF power of 30 to 60 W, working pressure, 1 to 7 mTorr, by RF magnetron sputtering. Structural, electrical and optical properties of IZTO thin film have been analyzed with various RF powers and working pressures. IZTO thin film deposited on the process condition of 50 W and 3 mTorr exhibited the best characteristics, where figure of merit was $4.53{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}^{-1}$, resistivity, $4.42{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}-cm$, sheet resistance, $27.63{\Omega}/sq.$, average transmittance (400-800 nm), 81.24%. As a result of AFM, all the IZTO thin film has no defects such as pinhole and crack, and RMS surface roughness was 1.147 nm. Due to these characteristics, IZTO thin film deposited on $SiO_2$/PET structure was found to be a very compatible material that can be applied to the next generation flexible display device.

In this study, the higher temperature thermal property of the fly ash-blast furnace slag system Geopolymer including alumina aggregate was investigated whether that Geopolymer will be or not useful as thermal-resistant construction materials. Under every mixing conditions, the crack on the surface of hardened body was not observed up to $800^{\circ}C$ and it corresponded with fact that level of changes was not significant before and after heating process. Residual compressive strength is most high when mixing Blast-Furnace Slag ratio is 60 wt% until temperature reaches $800^{\circ}C$. The major hydrates of hardened body of Geopolymer; amorphous halo pattern between $20{\sim}35^{\circ}$ (2theta) and mullite ($3Al_2O_3{\cdot}2SiO_2$) and quartz ($SiO_2$) was found during the experiment. Amorphous halo pattern was a aluminosilicate gel generated by geopolymeric polycondensation and it was found that the halo pattern of aluminosilicate gel was preserved up to $800^{\circ}C$. The patterns of aluminosilicate gel disappeared from $1,000^{\circ}C$ and crystal phases like gehlenite, calcium silicate, calcium aluminum oxide, microcline was observed with the increase of exposure temperature.

In this study, we fabricated ITZO thin films on glass substrates with various RF power from 30 to 60W and investigated the electrical, optical and structural properties. ITZO thin film deposited at 50W exhibited the largest figure of merit ($10.52{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}^{-1}$) and then its resistivity and sheet resistance were $3.08{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}-cm$ and $11.41{\Omega}/sq.$, respectively. As results of optical characterization, average transmittance of all ITZO thin films were over 80%. ITZO thin films had amorphous structure regardless of the RF power. The FESEM and AFM results showed that all ITZO thin films have a very smooth surface having no cracks and defects and the film deposited at 50W exhibit the smallest surface roughness of 0.254nm. We found that a amorphous ITZO thin film is a very promising material for replacing ITO in the next display device such as OLED.

In this study, we deposited ITO thin films on buffer layer of $Nb_2O_5(8nm)/SiO_2(45nm)$ using DC magnetron sputtering method and investigated its electrical and optical properties with various DC powers(100~400 W). The surface of the ITO thin film was observed by AFM. All thin films had defected free surface such as pinholes and cracks. The thin film deposited at DC power of 200 W exhibited the smallest surface roughness of 1.431nm. As a result of electrical and optical measurements, the ITO thin film deposited at DC power of 200 W which showed the lowest resistivity of $3.03{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}-cm$. The average transmittance in the visible light region(400 to 800 nm) and the transmittance at the wavelength of 550nm were found to be 85.8% and 87.1%, respectively. The chromaticity(b*) was also a relatively good value as 2.13. The figure of merit obtained from the sheet resistance of the ITO thin film, the average transmittance in the visible light region and the transmittance at the wavelength of 550nm were the best values of $2.50{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}^{-1}$ and $2.90{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}^{-1}$ at a DC power of 200W, respectively.
