The gas adsorption efficiency for various surfaces with three different characteristics has been reviewed. The dimethyl disulfide gas has been used to investigate characteristics of gas adsorption for different surface characteristics such as plasma treated, lacquer coated and untreated. Three different surfaces were evaluated in dry conditions initially and tested at wet surface conditions with spraying water to evaluate the gas adsorption efficiency which usually occurred at defrost cycles. The results show that the gas adsorption of the plasma treated sample has better performance than others. The lacquer coated and untreated samples showed the similar result, but the lacquer coated sample showed a slightly better performance.

광촉매 $TiO_2$는 국내외적으로 큰 관심을 받고 있는데, 빛을 조사한 후에 물질에서 발생하는 다양한 물리 화학적 촉매특성이 환경정화 기능 및 에너지 문제와 밀접하게 연결되어 있기 때문이다. $TiO_2$는 자기정화기능, 초친수성, 고효율 수소생산성 및 태양전지로 활용성 등을 포함하여 다양한 분야의 친환경 소재로 각광을 받고 있다. Glass위에 evaporation법으로 제조된 $TiO_2$박막을 제조하고 특성을 평가하였다. 제조된 박막은 각각 $400,500,600^{\circ}C$에서 열처리를 실시하였다. 이렇게 제조된 $TiO_2$박막의 결정구조는 thin film형 X선 회절분석기를 사용하여 분석하였으며, 박막의 표면 및 미세구조는 FE-SEM과 AFM을 이용하여 분석하였다. 친수성 평가는 실온에서 UV를 조사하여 접촉각 측정기를 이용하여 측정하였다.

본 실험에서는 PET 위 무전해 도금을 위한 대안 공정 개발을 목적으로 은(Ag)와 과망간산염($MnO_4{^-}$)를 사용하여 기존에 일반적으로 사용된 Sn/Pd의 Sensitization과 Activation process를 대체하는 기술을 연구했다. Palladium(Pd)의 경우 공정비용에서 높은 부분을 차지하기 때문에 이를 대신하여 Ag를 사용했으며, PET 표면의 전처리를 위해 Ultra Violet과 과망간 산염을 이용하여 표면의 친수성을 높였다. 과망간산염을 사용하여 표면을 전처리하는 과정에서 이산화망간($MnO_2$)과 알코올 작용기가 생성되는데 Ag activation 단계에서 촉매 생성에 중간 매개체 역할을 하는 것으로 사료된다. 이와 같은 결론을 도출 하기 위해서 표면 위 Ag의 화학적 구조 및 상 분석을 위해 XPS와 TEM이 사용되었으며 표면에서 Ag는 Ag-O와 같은 Silver oxide의 형태와 Ag-Mn-O와 같은 Compound로 무전해 도금을 위한 촉매 역할 하는 것으로 판단된다.

Colloidal Silica(CS)와 유기수지를 혼합하여 서로의 단점을 보완하는 나노복합재료를 합성하기 위해 친수성인 CS를 유기실란으로 표면처리하여 소수성화하고 유기수지와 복합체를 제조하였다. CS표면의 -OH기와 실란의 -OH기가 축합반응하여 화학결합을 형성함으로서 CS의 표면은 실란의 $CH_3$에 의해 소수성화되어 CS sol이 제조된다. CS sol과 유기수지는 공동용매에 의해 균일한 분산이 가능하고 필름 및 코팅제로의 제조가 가능하다. 사용된 무기물은 40nm 의 크기를 가지므로 가시광선영역의 빛을 산란하지 않아 투명하고 사용된 수지 또한 투명하여 우수한 광학적 특성을 나타낸다. 만들어진 필름은 CS의 영향으로 유기수지의 내열성보다 향상된 열분해온도와 높은 접촉각, 높은 절연율을 보였다.

Photochemical patterning of self-assembled mono layers (SAMs) has been performed by diode pumped solid state (DPSS) 3rd harmonic Nd:$YVO_4$ laser with wavelength of 355 nm. SAMs patternings of parallel lines have subsequently been used either to generate compositional chemical patterns or fabricate microstructures by a wet etching. This paper describes a selective etching process with patterned SAMs of alkanetiolate molecules on the surface of gold. SAMs formed by the adsorption of alkanethiols onto gold substrate employs as very thin photoresists. In this paper, the influence of the interaction between the functional group of SAMs and the etching solution is studied with optimal laser irradiation conditions. The results show that hydrophobic functional groups of SAMs are more effective for selective chemical etching than the hydrophilic ones.

Oxidized-polyacrylonitrile (oxy-PAN) was prepared by oxidation of PAN fiber at $240^{\circ}C$, followed by base catalyzed hydrolysis reaction. The chemical structure of PAN fiber in various pH conditions was characterized by $^{13}C-NMR$ spectroscopy. The characteristic contraction and expansion behavior of oxy -PAN fiber was observed in acidic and basic medium, respectively. In basic condition, water molecules might be absorbed into the fiber with the movement of charge balancing $Na^+$ ion, on the other hand, the water molecules seemed to be expelled in acidic condition to result in contraction. It was also observed that the facile chemical modification occurred due to free diffusion of aqueous reagent into the hydrophilic PAN fiber, and the morphology was affected by pH condition.

We synthesized thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer(TPU) with acid group and nano zinc oxide, and characterized their mechanical properties, thermal properties, contact angle and grip property. The effects of the zinc oxide content and size on the physical property of TPU were investigated. When the nano zinc oxide was introduced in TPU with acid group, it had excellent mechanical properties and grip by formation of hydrogen and ionic bonding. The wet slip of TPU with zinc oxide was increased continuously as ionization rate increased due to increase of hydrophilicity and ionic interaction, and mechanical properties were increased with increasing ionization rate up to 50%.

Sulfonated poly(ether sulfone)s (PESs) with a network structure were prepared by heat-induced crosslinking of the allyl-terminated telechelic sulfone polymers using a bisazide and their structure was analyzed by $^1H$ NMR. Having both uniform distribution of the hydrophilic conductive sites and controlled hydrophobic nature by minimized crosslinking, the crosslinked polymer (PES-60) membrane offered excellent proton conductivity at high temperature with a good thermal stability. In addition, selectivity of the crosslinked membrane (PES-60) was more than three times than that of Nafion$^{(R)}$.

The amount, chemical composition and optical property of extracellular dissolved organic carbon (EOC) by phytoplankton were examined using axenic cultures of Microcystis aeruginosa, Anabaena flos-aquae, and Oscillatoria agardhii. The extracellular organic matter was categorized into five fractions (hydrophobic acids; AHSs, hydrophobic neutrals; HoNs, hydrophilic acids; HiAs, hydrophilic bases; HiBs, and hydrophilic neutrals; HiNs) using three adsorbent resins(XAD-8, cation, and anion). The release pattern and chemical composition of EOC varied with algal species and their growth phases. Percentage of extracellular release increased with age in all cultures. HiAs were the dominant component of EOC in all cultures, whereas the proportion of HiAs decreased with age in all cultures. In contrast, the proportions of HiBs and HiNs increased as cultures aged. In particular, the HiN fraction increased from 0% to 44% of EOC in M. aeruginosa and from 3.0% to 28% in A. flos-aquae, respectively. The proportion of AHSs was higher in the cultures of A. flos-aquae(7.5${\sim}$16%) and O. agardhii (8.7${\sim}$16%) than M. aeruginosa(0.2${\sim}$2.5%). The proportions of AHSs increased with culture age in M. aeruginosa and O. agardhii, but decreased in A. flos-aquae. The specific UV absorbance also varied among species; 1.9 Abs${\cdot}$cm$^{-1}$/mgC${\cdot}$L$^{-1}$ for M. aeruginosa, 3.7 Abs${\cdot}$cm$^{-1}$/mgC${\cdot}$L$^{-1}$ for A. flos-aquae, and 13.0 Abs${\cdot}$cm$^{-1}$/mgC${\cdot}$L^{-1}$ for O. agardhii. The results of this study indicates that DOC excreted by three blue-green algae differed with species and the growth phase.

Poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fibers were modified by deep UV irradiation which was produced by a low pressure mercury lamp. FT-IR and XPS analyses were used to elucidate the surface chemical composition of PET fibers treated with UV. Relative $O_{1s}$ intensity increased considerably and it was found that oxygen was incorporated in the form of COO on the fiber surface. FT-IR and XPS analyses proved the existence of carboxylic groups on the surfaces and the adsorption test of cationic compound further supported these results. The concentration of carboxylic acid group on the surface increased remarkably with Increasing irradiation time. XPS analysis and adsorption experiments proved that the surface structure of the UV-irradiated PET fibers were stable for 12 months. Antibacterial property and the deodorization rate of UV-irradiated PET fibers adsorbed with the berberine compound were investigated. Reduction rates of bacteria increased by about 21 to 99% compared to unradiated PET fiber. Deodorization rates of 23% for unradiated PET fiber increased to about 75% for 30 min irradiated samples.s.
