Permeability to gases and vapors is an important function in tires, rubber tubes and diaphragms. It mainly depends on the rubber material. Generally, permeability increases in the following order: silicone rubber > NR > EPDM > SBR > NBR > FPM > ECO > IIR. And, for an elastomer permeability is also very much dependent on compounding. Many research works are reported in the area of gas permeability for formed rubber,$^{1-7}$ however, few studies are found for unformed elastomer products. Incorporation of nano-particles, use of thermoplastic elastomers and applying high barrier multilayer coatings are the main approaches to obtain a high barrier elastomeric product. In this paper, barrier article for vehicle is introduced.

For the treatment of reactive phenolic resin waste, a simulation model of pervaporative dehydration process has been developed through hollow fiber membrane module. Some of basic parameters were determined directly from dehydration of the waste liquid through a flat sheet membrane to get realistic values. The simulation model was verified by comparing the simulated values with experimental data obtained from hollow fiber membrane module. Hollow fiber membranes with active layer coated on inside fiber were used, and feed flew through inside hollow fiber. Feed flow rate affected membrane performances and reaction by providing a corresponding temperature distribution of feed along with fiber length. Feed temperature is also a crucial factor to determine dehydration and reaction behavior by two competing ways; increasing temperature increases permeation rate as well as water formation rate. Once the permeate pressure is well below the saturated vapor pressure of feed, permeate pressure had a slightly negative effect on permeation performance by slightly reducing driving force. As the pressure approached the vapor pressure of feed, dehydration performances declined considerably due to the activity ratio of feed and permeate.

전자기 유도 투과(electromagnetically induced transparency ； EIT)는 원자의 공명 진동수를 갖는 조사광이 원자 매질을 통과할 때, 강한 결합광에 의한 효과로 매질에 흡수되지 않고 투과하는 양자 간섭 효과로써 원자결맞음 현상의 가장 대표적인 현상 중의 하나이다. EIT 현상은 Boller 등에 의해서 고출력 펄스 레이저를 이용하여 Strontium 증기에서 처음 관측된 이후, 여러 가지 원자와 분자의 증기 셀, 원자 빔, 고체, 냉각된 원자, 그리고 BEC(Bose Einstein condensate)상태에서 다양한 연구들이 이루어지고 있다. (중략)

In this study, 3-(trihydroxysilyl)-1-propanesulfonic acid (THS-PSA) was added to poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) membranes crosslinked with poly(styrene sulfonic acid-co-maleic acid) (PSSA_MA) to improve the separation characteristics toward water vapors in the air. The prepared membranes varying both PSSA_MA and THS-PSA amounts were also synthesized at different cross linking temperatures. Then, in order to investigate the separation characteristics of the resulting membranes, the dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) and vapor permeation experiments were carried out. The increase of cross-linking temperature showed longer time to reach the equilibrium sorption state from the dynamic vapor sorption experiments. PVA/PSSA_MA (3%)/THA-PSA(7%) prepared at $120^{\circ}C$ gave the highest permeability of 480 barrer at $35^{\circ}C$.

By using a phenomenological approach, model equations incorporating the resistance-in¬series concept were established to evaluate quantitatively concentration polarization in the boundary layer in feed adjacent to the membrane surface in the vapor permeation and separation of volatile organic compounds (VOCS)/$N_2$ mixture through po]y(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) membrane. The vapor permeations of various VOCS/$N_2$ mixtures through PDMS membrane were carried out at various feed flow rates. Chlorinated hydrocarbons, such as, methylene chloride, chlorofonn, 1,2-clichloroethane and 1,1,2-trichloroethane were used as organic vapor. By fitting the model equations to the experimental penneation data. the model parameters were detennined. respectively. Both the mass transfer coefficient of VOC across tbe boundary layer and concentration polarization modulus as a measure of the extent of concentration polarization were eitimated Quantitatively by the mooe1 equations with the determined model parameters. From the analysis on the detennined model parameters, the boundary layer resistance due to the concentration polarization of VOCs component was found to be more significant when the condensability of voe was greater. This study seeks to emphasize the importance of the boundary resistance on the vapor penneation of the vapor/gas mixtures with high permeability and high selectivity towards the minor component VOC.

투과증발 시스템은 막 분리 기술의 일종으로 액체 혼합물 중의 한 성분에 대해 친화적인 비다공성 막을 사용하여 그 성분을 선택적으로 투과시켜 혼합물을 분리하는 기술이다. 투과증발 시스템에서는 Feed가 비교적 높은 온도에서 액상 형태로 막의 Feed side에 공급되어 막을 투과한 물질(Permeate)은 Permeate side에서 기화된 후 냉각기로부터 공급되는 Cold brine에 의하여 응축되며, 이는 투과증발막 투과 구동력이 각 성분의 증기압 차이기 때문에 이를 크게 유지하기 위함이다. 현재 투과증발 시스템이 상업적으로 적용되고 있는 공정은 유기물 탈수 공정으로, 이 공정에서는 물에 대한 용해도 및 투과 속도가 우수한 친수성 막을 이용하여 유기물과 물의 혼합물로부터 물을 제거하여 유기물을 농축하며, 대표적인 유기물은 에탄올, Isopropyl alcohol(IPA), 아세톤, MIBK, Ethyl acetate, THF 등의 중성 유기물이다.

Polyurethane-polysiloxanes (PU/PDMS) was synthesized using 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) and 1,4-butanediol (BD) to overcome the weakness to the organic chemicals. The composite membranes were prepared onto porous poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) supports. In vapor permeation experiments, the flux increased with increasing operating temperatures and feed concentrations while the separation factors showed the opposite trend, so-called 'trade-off'. In this study, the effect of the flux on the operating temperatures was not severe since the content of the soft segments is fairly higher than that of the hard segments. The composite membrane type of PU/PDMS maintained high flux and separation factor as well when comparing with the dense type membranes.

The surface of porous alumina membrane was modified with silane coupling agent in order to enhance hydrophobicity. The contact angle of water to the surface-modified alumina membrane was greater than $90^{\circ}$. The surface-modified membrane was tested in vapor permeation for the concentration of aqueous ethanol. With the increase of ethanol concentration in the feed, permeation flux increased due to the greater affinity of ethanol with surface-modified alumina membrane than that of water. The experimental results showed that the permeation rate of surface-modified alumina membrane was 15~1000 times greater than that of polymer membranes.

분리막을 이용한 물질의 분리는 최근 들어 많은 연구가 수행되어 일부 실용화 되고 있으나, 최근에 관심을 끌고 있는 Pervaporation 분리법에 의한 유기물의 분리는 여러가지 이유에서 아직 큰 성과를 올리지 못하고 있다고 생각된다. 그러나, 이 방법만이 갖는 잇점 때문에 국내.외에서 다방면으로 활발히 연구가 진행되고 있다. 한편 Pervaporation 분리법의 분리기구를 규명하는데는 많은 어려움이 있으므로 아직까지 명확히 밝혀지지 않고 있으나 언제인가는 밝혀져야 할 과제라고 생각된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 투과현상을 좀 더 구체적으로 파악하므로써 분리기구를 해석하는 데 다소나마 기여하기 위하여 물 선택성 막은 Carboxy-methylcellulose(CMC) 막을 제작하여 알코올류, DMF, DMAc, Dioxane등의 유기 수용액의 분리실험을 하였으며, 투과 증기의 조성을 짧은 시간 간격으로 측정하므로써 분리특성과 아울러 투과현상을 파악하였다.
