Eco-friendly consumption is a prominent trend in the fashion industry, by which many firms attract the interest of consumers using a green marketing strategy. However, "greenwashing" (caused by distorted, exaggerated, and false information) gives rise to consumer confusion. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of consumer confusion and value on price sensitivity and purchase intention. Data was collected from 228 respondents using a questionnaire that was distributed to consumers living in Seoul and Kyunggi, South Korea. The data was analyzed by factor analysis, regression analysis, and Cronbach's alpha using SPSS 23.0. The results were as follows: First, factor analysis showed the consumer value variable was significantly categorized in altruistic and self-expressive values. All variables (altruism, selfexpression, consumer confusion, price sensitivity, and purchase intention) were shown to have significantly good internal validity. Second, altruistic consumer value was shown to positively affect the purchase intention of eco-friendly fashion products, but self-expressive consumer value had no significant effect. Third, consumer confusion on eco-friendly fashion products had a negative effect on purchase intention. Fourth, altruistic and self-expressive consumer values had no effect on price sensitivity. Fifth, consumer confusion on eco-friendly fashion products positively affect price sensitivity. Sixth, price sensitivity on eco-friendly fashion products had a negative effect on purchase intention. Therefore, fashion firms should provide a certified green mark to consumers to eliminate confusion and deliver the right message without greenwashing. Moreover, fashion firms should develop green marketing strategies that are more focused on altruistic consumers.

Levee breaches can result from flooding due to torrential rainfalls, which are linked with recent abnormal climates and the aging of river levees. Breaches have caused enormous property damage and human casualties in lowland areas. Overtopping was found to be the cause for approximately 40% of all cases of breach. In this study, the reasons and mechanisms behind levee breaches were analyzed using hydraulic model testing. The overtopping stability and time delay effect of breaches were assessed for levees made with a new environmentally friendly substance. Image analysis revealed that the total breach time of the levees made with the new substance was about 2.25 times greater than that of an earthen levee. The initial breach rate of a general earthen levee was about 1.43 times higher than that of levees covered with the new substance, and the body collapsed rapidly. The breach mechanisms of levees covered with the new substance were completely different, and it is possible to prevent rapid breaches by mitigation of the breach speed on the slope by resisting overtopping.

Antifouling paints that inhibit the attachment and contamination of marine organisms mainly use TBT compounds, but because of their toxic components, they cause ecosystem disturbance and environmental destruction problems, so It is necessary to research eco-friendly antifouling paints that are easy to maintain and effective antifouling technologies. In this study, physical surface treatment of silane coating and chemical antifouling technology were applied to the metal surface to secure the stability of the surface of the marine structure and inhibit the attachment and growth of marine organisms. Adhesion of marine organisms was evaluated according to the coating conditions through surface evaluation of the charged material for 15 months in the waters of the west coast of Korea. In accordance with ASTM D6990-05, antifouling properties fouling rates (FR) and physical degradation rates(PDR) were evaluated through visual inspection of the evaluation specimens. As a result of evaluating the antifouling performance of the coated surface, it was confirmed that the antifouling performance was maintained at the 50% level even after 15 months in the sample subjected to physical processing and silane coating.

매년 감귤 가공량은 감귤 생산량의 20%인 약 12만톤을 차지하고 있으며, 이중 가공부산물이 5~7만톤으로 총 가공량의 약 50%가 발생하고 있다. 부산물 중 약 70%는 사료와 한약재로 재이용되고 있으나, 지난해까지 약 30%가 20억원의 처리비용을 들여 바다에 매립 처리되었다. 그러나 올해부터 런던 협약에 의해 해양투기가 금지되었고 2014년 이후에는 육상폐기물의 해양투기가 전면 금지됨에 따라 시급한 대책이 필요한 실정이다. 이에 국립원예특작과학원에서는 감귤가공부산물을 이용해 기능성 식음료, 바이오겔 등 다양한 제품을 개발했다.

This paper describes vegetation based soil-media hydroseeding measures that have been previously applied as slope revegetation methods show problems such as insufficient binding force, drying, and insufficient organic matter. In particular, in the case of slope faces in regions where scattering is severe, a vicious circle exists in which remarkably low vegetation cover rates and increases in withering rates over time lead to further decreases in vegetation cover rates, which lead to further increases in erosion and scattering. Therefore, in the present study, environment friendly soil stabilizers were applied for resistance against erosion or scattering and engineering evaluations such as long-term immersion tests and flow resistance tests were conducted to determine appropriate mixing ratios. According to the results of long-term immersion tests utilizing environment friendly soil stabilizers and existing greening soil based materials, 100% collapse occurred at 30 hours and 40 days in the case of soil stabilizer mixing ratios of 0% and 2%, respectively. While the original form of the samples remained intact until the experiment was completed in the case of mixing ratios exceeding 4% indicating that 2% or higher soil stabilizer mixing ratios could affect the maintenance of forms even under extreme conditions. In addition, artificial rainfall tests were conducted on 40, 45, and 55 degree slope faces to evaluate the structural stability of vegetation based materials. Flow resistance tests were conducted on soil stabilizer mixing ratios of 0, 4, 8% to evaluate erosion resistance capability. Based on the results of the tests, environment friendly soil stabilizers applied for prevention of scattering or resistance against erosion by rainwater are considered to provide large effects to reduce losses and loss rates showed a tendency of decreasing rapidly when soil stabilizers were mixed.

포스트텐션(Post-Tension, PT) 공법은 일반적으로 텐던(tendon)으로 알려진 고강도 강선 또는 봉을 이용하여 콘크리트 또는 다른 재료를 보강하는 방법으로 많은 경우 건설현장의 제약과 건축적인 요구에 의해 다른 공법으로 해결이 불가능한 경우에 대해 대안으로 사용되어 온 공법이다. 또한 포스트텐션 시스템은 조립과 설치에 특수한 지식과 경험이 필요하였다. 그러나 최근 건설시장은 신소재와 신공법의 발달과 함께 친환경 및 경제성에 대한 요구가 증가함에 따라 장스팬 및 층고절감이 가능한 포스트텐션 공법을 일반 건축물에 적용하는 사례가 점차 늘어나는 추세에 있다. 따라서 본 지에서는 3회에 걸쳐 포스트텐션 공법과 설계 및 시공사례 등을 소개하고자 한다. 1. 포스트텐션 공법 소개 2. 포스트텐션 공법의 경제성 비교 3. 포스트텐션공법의 설계사례와 설계시 고려사항

최근 환경 문제과 관련하여 건설 분야에서 발생하는 환경적인 부담을 줄이고자 다양한 재활용 소재들에 대한 연구에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 특히 폐기물 중 생활계에서 발생하는 폐플라스틱은 '쓰레기 대란'이라는 사회적 문제로 대두된 사례가 있다. 생활계에서 발생하는 폐비닐은 다양한 조성으로 이루어져 재활용 대상에서 제외되기 때문에 매립 또는 소각되는 플라스틱의 양을 줄이고 재활용율을 늘릴 수 있는 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구는 생활계에서 발생하는 폐비닐을 융용시켜 무기첨가제 등을 한 복합 Alloy를 생산한다. 또한 재생이 가능한 복합 Alloy를 압출 또는 사출 과정을 통해 테트라포드의 형태를 만들 수 있는 Preform으로 가공하는 공정연구 하였으며 이러한 Preform을 해안 및 항만에서 사용되는 콘크리트 피복재에 적용하였을 때 플라스틱 소재와 콘크리트 소재의 비중의 차이로 인해 발생하는 안정성을 정량적으로 평가하는 수리모형 실험를 수행하였다.

Recently, research using waste among eco-friendly materials has been attracting attention. In this study, we investigated the physical properties of blends in which high density polyethylene (HDPE) was filled with waste gypsum (CaSO₄) generated during fertilizer manufacturing. Composites were prepared by adding the gypsum content 0~20 wt% using a twin screw extruder. The mechanical, rheological, and thermal properties of the composites were evaluated. It was found that the tensile strength of the composites was less than 4.1% compared to that of unfilled HDPE, so there is no significant deterioration in physical properties. The thermal stability of the composites was improved as the gypsum content increased and the gypsum content had little effect on the viscosities of the composites.
