For imaging complex subsurface structures such as salt dome, faults, thrust belt, and folds, seismic prestack reverse-time migration in depth domain is widely used, which is performed by the cross-correlation of shot-domain wavefield extrapolation with receiver-domain wavefield extrapolation. We apply the prestack reverse-time migration, which had been developed at KIGAM, to the seismic field data set of Block 5 in Jeju basin of Korea continental shelf in order to improve subsurface syncline stratigraphy image of the deep structures under the shot point 8km at the surface. We performed basic data processing for improving S/N ratio in the shot gathers, and constructed a velocity model from stack velocity which was calculated by the iterative velocity spectrum. The syncline structure of the stack image appears as disconnected interfaces due to the diffractions, but the result of the prestack migration shows that the syncline image is improved as seismic energy is concentrated on the geological interfaces.

This study was performed to evaluate the effect of the shrinkage stress induced by polymerization process of several light curing filling materials according to filling methods. High power light curing unit which has a plasma arc lamp was used and filling materials used were Filtek $Z-250^{(R)}$ composite resin, $Dyract^{(R)}$ AP compomer and $Tetric^{(R)}$ Flow flowable composite resin. Cavities were prepared on the permanent molars with width 3 mm, height 3 mm and depth 1.5 mm and the filling materials were filled with 1 step, 2 step layering technique and 3 step oblique filling methods. The results can be summarized as follows; 1. Strain values showed rapid increase from the start of light curing followed by gradual decrease afterwards with time. 2. Although the shrinkage stress value of $Z-250^{(R)}$ were shown to be relatively higher than $Dyract^{(R)}$ AP and $Tetric^{(R)}$ Flow, no statistically significant could be found between tested materials(p>0.05). 3. There were no statistically significant difference between 3 filling methods when using $Dyract^{(R)}$ AP and $Z-250^{(R)}$(p>0.05). 4. There were no statistically significant difference between shrinkage stress values obtained from samples prepared by different filling methods and materials(p>0.05).

In this study, the bulk polymerizations of L-lactide were carried out with triethylaluminium (TEAL), which was supported inside of the nanopore of silica. The feed amount of TEAL in the feed, the immobilization time and temperature were changed to observe the effect of immobilization condition on the polymerization performance with the silica- supported TEAL. As the feed amount of TEAL increased, the conversion of polymerization increased. The highest molecular weight (MW) was achieved at 8 mmol/g-silica of TEAL. Hexane and toluene as solvents were employed to investigate the effect of temperature on the immobilization. Hexane showed better efficiency of immobilization TEAL and the immobilization temperature at $50^{\circ}C$ showed the highest conversion and MW.

For the purpose of the pre-industry production of poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) and full understanding of the supercritical polymerization system, large scale polymerization of L-iactide initiated by 1-dodecano/stannous 2-ethyl-hexanoate (DoOH/Sn(Oct)$_2$) was carried out in supercritical chlorodifluoromethane under various reaction conditions (time, temperature and pressure)and reactants (monomer and supercritical solvent) concentrations. A 3 L sized-reactor system was used throughout this study. The monomer conversion increased to 72% on increasing reaction time to 5 h. The molecular weight of PLLA product also increased to 68000 g/moi over the same period. An increase in monomer concentration resulted in a higher molecular weight, up to 144000 g/mol and 97% of monomer conversion. Raising the reaction pressure from 130 to 240 bar also resulted in an increased monomer conversion and molecular weight. To increase heat resistivity of PLLA, methanol treatment and heat-vacuum methods were evaluated. Both of them successfully improved the heat resistivity property of PLLA.

The anionic polymerization of ${\varepsilon}$-caprolactam with N,N'-adipyl-bis-${\varepsilon}$-caprolactam as an initiator and potassium hydroxide as a catalyst was studied under various conditions.It was found that concentration of catalyst and initiator was 4.2 and 1.6 mole %, and polymerization temperature of 130$^{\circ}C$C, polymerization time of 1.5 hours was the optimum condition. The intrinsic viscosity and molecular weight of the obtained polymer was over 0.9 dl/g and 12,000. The polymerization was carried out in the presence of N-acyl-${\varepsilon}$-caprolactam as an initiator, it was observed that the reactivity of N,N'-adipyl-bis-${\varepsilon}$-caprolactam was greater than both of the N-benzoyl-${\varepsilon}$-caprolactam and N-acetyl-${\varepsilon}$-caprolactam. In general it was also observed that the intrinsic viscosity and yield of conversion was increased as an increasing of concentration of catalyst and initiator and also highly depend on temperature.

The purpose of this study is to compare efficiency of broad spectrum LEDs ($VALO^{(R)}$, Ultradent, USA) with conventional LED curing lights ($Elipar^{TM}$ Freelight 2, 3M ESPE, USA) using a microhardness test. The light curing units used were $VALO^{(R)}$ in three different modes and $Elipar^{TM}$ Freelight 2. The exposure time was used according to the manufacturer's instructions. After cured resin specimens were stored in physiological saline at $37^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours, microhardness was measured using Vickers microhardness tester. The microhardness of upper and lower sides of the specimens were analyzed separately by the ANOVA method (Analysis of Variance) with a significance level set at 5%. At upper side of resin specimens, an increased microhardness was observed in the broad spectrum LED curing light unit with a high power mode for 4 seconds and plasma emulation mode for 20 seconds (p < 0.05). However, at the lower side of resin specimens, there were no significant differences in microhardness between broad spectrum LED curing light unit and conventional LED curing light unit.

The graft copolymerization of acrylonitrile(AN) onto chitosan film by using $F^{3+}(FeCl_3{\cdot}6H_2O)$ as a photosensitizer in an aqueous medium was carried out under ultraviolet(UV) irradiation. The grafted copolymer was identified by using IR spectroscopy and scanning electron microscope. The effects of various polymerization parameters involving monomer concentration, photosensitizer concentration, polymerization time and polymerization temperature were investigated. As monomer concentration and photosensitizer concentration were increased, the percent grafting was increased up to limiting value. And also the percent grafting was found to increase by increasing the polymerization time and temperature.

1. 서론 : 막을 이용한 분리기술의 실용화의 최대 과제는 선택성이 높고 용매의 투과용매의 투과속도가 높은 막재질 및 처리 면적이 큰 막의 개발이 필요하게 되었다. 이러한 성능 개발은 1960년대 cellulose acetate 계통의 막개발 이후 1980년대 지지층 고분자위에 다른 고분자 물질을 도포한 복합막(thin film composite layer)이 개발되어 막의 성능을 급격히 발전시켰다. 그 중에서 초박막화(ultrathin membrane)는 분리막에 의한 분리공정의 최대 결점인 낮은 투과량의 개선을 꾀할 수 있다는 장점 때문에 다양한 시도가 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 박막 제조 방법에는 박층분산법, 침지코팅법, 기상증착법, 계면중합법이 있으나, 섞이지 않는 두 계면 사이에서 고분자를 형성시키는 계면중합법은 수용상에 함침된 지지막위에 유기상을 계변에서 중합시켜 박막을 얻는 기술이다. 중합과정에서 일어나는 계면의 형성과정에 대한 연구는 미흡하기에 이에 본 연구는 시간에 따른 계면중합 반응 형성과정을 고찰하는 방법을 소개하고, 형성된 박막의 아론적, 실험적 두께 측정을 비교하였다.

Recently, newly developed single high-intensity LED curing lights for composite resins are claimed to have a higher intensity than previous LED curing lights and to results in optimal properties and short curing time. The purpose of this study was to determine the curing effectiveness of the curing units and to evaluate the relationship between the degree of polymerization and distance from curing light tip end to resin surface. One composite resin was tested(Filtek Z250). Thin film specimens were cured with a LED curing unit(Elipar Freelight 2, 10s), Plasma Arc curing unit(Flipo, 6s), Halogen curing light(XL3000, 20s) at four curing light tip to the resin surface(0mm, 2mm, 4mm, 6mm). Degree of conversion of composite resins were determined by a Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer(FTIR). From the present study, the following results were obtained. 1. In all curing units, relative light intensity was significantly decreased according to the increase of distance of light tip to the resin surface(p<0.05). LED curing units showed a higher percentile decrease in intensity than other curing units. 2. In all curing units, degree of conversion was decreased as increase of the distance but no statistically significant difference(p>0.05) except between 4mm and 6mm(p<0.05). 3. When comparing degree of conversion of light curing units at each distance(0mm, 2mm, 4mm, 6mm), LED curing light had a higher degree of conversion than plasma arc and halogen curing lights at 0, 2, 4mm(p<0.05). At 6mm, there was a no significant difference among the curing units(p>0.05).

Purpose: This study was designed to compare the amount of polymerization shrinkage of dual-cure resin cements according to different polymerization modes and to determine the effect of light activation on the degree of polymerization. Materials and methods: Four kinds of dual-cure resin cements were investigated: Smartcem 2, Panavia F 2.0, Clearfil SA Luting and Zirconite. Each material was tested in three different polymerization modes: self-polymerization only, immediate light polymerization and 5 minutes-delayed light polymerization. The time-dependent polymerization shrinkage-strain was evaluated for 30 minutes by Bonded-disk method at $37^{\circ}C$. Five recordings of each material with three different modes were taken. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and multiple comparison Scheffe′test (${\alpha}$=.05). Results: All materials, except Panavia F 2.0, exhibited the highest polymerization shrinkage-strain through delayed light-activated polymerization. No significant difference between light activation modes was found with Panavia F 2.0. All materials exhibited more than 90% of polymerization rate in the immediate or delayed light activated group within 10 minutes. Conclusion: As a clinical implication of this study, the application of delayed light activation mode to dual-cure resin cements is advantageous in terms of degree of polymerization.
