The adsorption characteristics of ions were evaluated for the nitrate-selective carbon electrode (NSCE) in accordance with power supply methods. The NSCE was fabricated by coating the surface of a carbon electrode with anion-exchange resin powders with high selectivity for the nitrate ion. Capacitive deionization (CDI) experiments were performed on a mixed solution of nitrate and chloride ion in constant voltage (CV) and constant current (CC) modes. The number of total adsorbed ions in CV mode was 15% greater than that in CC mode. The mole fraction of adsorbed nitrate ion showed the maximum 58%, though the mole fraction was 26% in the mixed solution. This indicates that the fabricated NSCE is highly effective for the selective adsorption of nitrate ions. The mole fraction of adsorbed nitrate was nearly constant value of 55-58% during the adsorption period in CC mode. In the case of CV mode, however, the values increased from the initial 30% to 58% at the end of adsorption. We confirmed that the current supplied to cell is important factor to determine the selective removal of nitrate.

지반내 중금속의 저류와 이동에 대한 가장 중요한 인자는 토양 간극수의 pH이다. 점토의 완충능을 kaolinite, hectorite, attapulgite, Na-bentonite와 같은 4가지 점토에 대하여 연구하였다. 완충능의 크기는 hectoriteattapulgite>kaolinite의 순으로 나타났다. 완충능의 크기는 지반내 탄산염 함량과 양이온 교환능력이 완충능의 크기에 가장 영향을 미치며 유기물 함량과 비표면적의 영향은 적었다. 토양의 완충능을 모델링하기 위하여 수소 이온과 토양표면의 화학반응 기간의 화학반응을 정전흡착 모델을 이용하여 모델링하였다. 또한 탄산염 함량과 양이온 교환능력을 함수로 하는 회귀식을 제안하였다. 모델 검증을 위하혀 모델 예측치와 실험치를 비교하였는데 정전 흡착모델을 이용한 예측치가 실험치와 근사한값을 나타냈다.

세라믹 분발의 분산안정성은 입자의 입경 및 형상, 배열형태, 그리고 분산기구에 따라 크게 달라진다. 대체로 입경이 콜로이드 범위내에 존재하면 일반적인 정전반발력이나 입체반발력에 의하여 분산이 가능하지만, 콜로이드 범위를 넘는 조대한 입경을 가지는 분말에서는 진정한 분산안정성을 얻는 것은 불가능하다. 비록 콜로이드 범위에 속히는 입경을 가지더라도 Hamaker 상수가 매우 높거나 기하이방성을 가진 입자가 우선배향성을 가지는 경우에도 마찬가지의 결과를 보여 준다. 진정한 의미의 분산안정성을 얻을 수 없는 경우 입자 간 포텐셜 에너지의 절대값이 최소가 되도록 함과 더불어 고분자 흡착층이나 전기이중층의 두께를 조정하여 입지간 평형거리를 조정하여 후속공정에서의 균일성을 유지하는 것이 기능하다. 이와 같은 제한응집은 진정한 의미의 분산안정성을 얻을 수 없는 분말을 구성분말로 하는 단미는 물론 복합재료에서도 활용이 가능하다. 나노 크기의 입경을 가지는 분말에서는 반데르발스 인력은 상대적으로 작지만, 정전반발력도 동시에 작아지기 때문에 에너지 장벽의 높이가 충분하지 않은 경향을 보인다. 따라서, 나노 분말의 분산안정성은 흡착층의 두께가 크지 않는 저분자량의 고분자를 흡착시켜 입체반발력을 부여하는 것이 바람직하다.

To elucidate adsorption of proteins and examine the molecular behavior of protein molecules at interfaces, various proteins at the air-water interface were studied. The adsorption data of bovine serum albumin intermediates indicated that the conformational state of a protein played an important role in adsorption of proteins at interfaces. The adsorption behavior of succinylated beta-lactoglobulin indicated that the increase in the net negative charge of the protein significantly inflenced both the kinetics and thermodynamics of adsorption. The adsorption kinetics of beta-casein showed that the salt that induced break-down of water structure decreased the rate of adsorption.

여러 가지 흡착제를 사용한 회분식 흡착성능 측정 실험에서 흡착성능은 음이온교환수지 > 입상활성탄 > Biomass > 분말활성탄 > 제올라이트 순으로 나타났으며, 모든 흡착제는 30분 안에 흡착평형 상태에 도달 하였다. 음이온교환수지를 이용한 회분식 흡착실험에서 최대흡착량은 pH 10에서 0.0483 mmol/g로 가장 높았고, 대체적으로 pH가 높은 범위에서 흡착이 잘 되는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이것은 산화물 상태의 셀레늄이 pH 6 이하의 영역에서는 HSeO$_3^{-}$가 존재하며, PH 6$\sim$10 영역에서는 HSeO$_3^{-}$와 SeO$_3^{-2}$가 공존하며, pH 10 이상에서는 SeO$_3^{-2}$만 존재함을 알 수 있는데, 실험에서도 유사한 결과가 나온 것으로 사료된다. 입상활성탄을 이용한 흡착실험에서 최대흡착량은 pH 4.5에서 0.0574 mmol/g으로 가장 높았다. pH 4.5$\sim$6.5 범위에서는 대체적으로 비슷한 성능을 나타내었다. 입상활성탄의 표면전위 특성상 음이온으로 존재하는 셀레늄과 정전기적 반발력으로 인해 흡착이 거의 일어나지 않는 것으로 보이지만, 음이온 상태로 존재하는 셀레늄 이외의 금속간 화합물이나 물리적인 결합상태의 미세입자들이 흡착된 것으로 보인다.

I present the behavior of colloidal adsorption to an oil-water interface in the presence of electrolyte in an aqueous subphase. The optical laser tweezers and the piezo controller are used to trap an individual polystyrene microsphere in water and forcibly transfer it to the interface in the vertical direction. Addition of an electrolyte (i.e., NaCl) in the aqueous subphase enables the particle to attach to the interface, whereas the particle escapes from the trap without the adsorption in the absence of the electrolyte. Based on the analytical calculations of the optical trapping force and the electrostatic disjoining pressure between the particle and the oil-water interface, it is found that a critical energy barrier between them should exist. This study will provide a fundamental understanding for applications of colloidal particles as solid surfactants that can stabilize the immiscible fluid-fluid interfaces, such as emulsions (i.e., Pickering emulsions) and foams.

The adsorption equilibrium properties of bovine serum albumin(BSA-protein) for three kinds of porous microgels with different physical and chemical features were investigated. The adsorption amount of BSA-protein on poly(butyl methacrylate)(PBMA) microgels was higher than those on poly(vinyl pyridine)(PVP) and poly(acrylonitrile) (PAN) microgels due to the hydrophobic interaction between polymer and protein in an aqueous solution. And PBMA microgels had more irreversible adsorption equilibrium properties the PVP and PAN microgels. It implies that hydrophobic interaction plays a more important role in adsorption properties of BAS-protein than physical properties of polymer and electrostatic attraction between protein and polymer microgels. Characteristics of the microgels used in this study followed Langmuir equation better than the Freundlich equation.

Adsorption behaviors of Ni(II) ions were investigated using amorphous alumina as adsorbent. In the adsorption kinetic study, it was observed that Ni(II) ions were bound to the alumina surface in two adsorption stages, the rapid and slow adsorption stages. The rapid adsorption proceeded within 1 hr, thereafter the slow adsorption occurred. The results of adsorption isotherm experiments showed that the Ni(II) adsorption obeyed the Langmuir-Freundlich isotherm, and that the adsorption enhanced with increasing pH. The change in ionic strength did not exhibit a conspicuous trend in Ni(II) adsorption, thereby suggesting that the adsorption occurs through surface complexation rather than electrostatic interactions. The amounts of adsorption were measured with varying pH at three different Ni(II) concentrations under the condition of constant ionic strength, showing that with increasing Ni(II) concentration, the percentage of adsorption decreased and the adsorption edge was shifted to a higher pH value.

The urease adsorption on zeolite and the various properties of adsorbed urease were investigated to find out the influence of zeolite on activity and properies of urease. Free urease in solution was adsorbed on zeolite untill the max. adsorption, and the amount of max. adsorption was 11.3mg urease/100mg zeolite at pH 7.0. It is apparent that free urease was adsorbed on the outer surface of zeolite by cation exchange reaction, and more than 70% of urease adsorption was adsorbed within 30 min. The activity of adsorbed urease was decreased by 89.6%, whereas Km value was increased to 34.4mM, which is higher than that of free urease. The optimum pH of adsorbed urease was widened 6.5 to 7.0, compared to that of free urease 7.0. The resistance of urease to protease became weaker by adsorption, however substrate specificity and thermal stability were not affected.
