A stress measurement method of structural member using piezoelectric property and electrostatic voltmeter is presented. The electric potentials of the surface of the piezoelectric element, which are proportional to the strain ${\varepsilon}$ on the structural member, are measured by an electrostatic voltmeter during load cycling. The stress ${\sigma}$ is calculated by this strain ${\varepsilon}$. Moreover, a stress distribution measurement tape which can be used for the stress distribution measurement along a specified line on the surface of structural member is developed, and the surface potential was measured by an electric static voltmeter of non-contact type. The applicability of the stress distribution measurement tape is examined through experiments using a notched specimen under cyclic loading. The measured distributions of x, y and xy are compared with those calculated by FEM analysis.

In order to develop an effective way of measuring the mode I stress intensity factor, $K_I$, by the technique based on the alternating current potential drop (ACPD), the effect of the magnetic flux in the air on the change in potential drop due to load for both ferromagnetic and paramagnetic materials containing a two-dimensional surface crack was investigated. Additionally the effects of the demagnetization and the crack length on the change in potential drop were examined. In the case that the measuring system was designed to induce a large amount of electromotive force, the amount of the change in potential drop due to load was shown to increase largely Also the relationship between the change in potential drop and that in $K_I$ was indicated to be linear without any treatment and it was shown that the demagnetization had almost no effect on the change in potential drop. The change in potential drop did not depend on the crack length but on the measuring system. For the application of the ACPD technique to determine $K_I$.

The zeta potential, called an electrokinetic potential, refers to the potential difference caused by electrodynamic phenomenon, which is a value obtained by quantifying the surface charge property. The zeta potential has been actively studied for membrane fouling, confirmation of modification and substituent confirmation through surface charge analysis. The methods of measurement for zeta potential were developed on the basis of electrophoresis, electrosmosis and streaming potential. Among them, it was known that the streaming potential method was suitable for the flat sheet membrane. So, in this study, aminated poly(styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene) membranes were prepared by introducing ammonium groups and the streaming potentials of the prepared membranes were measured by using an electrokinetic potential analyzer (SurPASS) and the results were analyzed.

Mg(1-4)Zn 이원계 압출재 및 Mg5Sn(1-4)Zn 삼원계 압출재의 부식거동을 3.5 % NaCl 용액에서 다양한 전기화학기법을 이용하여 평가하였다. 이원계 합금에 대한 연구결과, Zn 함량 증가에 따라 Mg 모재의 부동태화가 촉진되었고 동시에 수소발생속도가 증가하였으며 그 결과 부식전위의 상승이 관찰되었다. 그러나 Zn 함량 증가에 따른 부동태화 효과보다 수소발생 증가 효과가 우세하므로 결과적으로 Zn 함량 증가에 따라 부식속도는 증가하였다. Mg5Sn(1-4)Zn 삼원계 합금에 대한 부식시험 결과, Mg5Sn2Zn 합금이 가장 낮은 부식속도 및 우수한 부동태화를 나타내었으며 이는 합금원소 Sn의 수소발생속도 감소효과와 합금원소 Zn의 부동태화 효과의 상호작용에 의한 것으로 사료된다.

오스테나이트계 스테인리스강의 기계적 특성 향상을 위해 열화학적 표면처리 방법으로 공정 후 재료의 변형이 없고 친환경적인 플라즈마 이온질화 기술이 널리 사용되고 있다. 특히 대략 $450^{\circ}C$이하에서 플라즈마 이온질화 처리 시 S상이라 불리는 expanded austenite 생성에 기인하여 내식성이 향상시키는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 이전의 연구 결과 증류수, HCl, $H_2SO_4$ 등의 실험 용액에 따라 동일한 공정 온도에 대하여 다른 부식 특성을 나타냈으며, 내식성이 확보되는 온도 또한 다른 결과를 얻었다. 이처럼 적용 환경에 따라 다른 부식 경향을 보이고 있으나, 해양 환경에 사용될 해수에서의 부식 저항성에 대한 명확한 규명은 이루어지지 않고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 해양환경에 보편화되어 있는 오스테나이크계 스테인리스강을 선정하여 다양한 온도에서 플라즈마 이온질화 처리 후 전기화학실험을 통해 온도 변화에 따른 부식 특성을 분석하였다. 플라즈마 이온질화는 25% 질소와 75% 수소의 비율로 $350{\sim}500^{\circ}C$의 온도 조건에서 10시간 동안 처리하였다. 플라즈마 이온질화 처리 후 마이크로 경도 계측과 X-선 회절(X-ray diffraction, XRD) 분석을 통해 온도 변화에 따른 금속 표면에 형성된 질화물의 기계적 조직학적 특성을 분석하였다. 또한 모재 및 다양한 온도에서 플라즈마 이온질화 처리된 재료에 대하여 $2{\times}2cm$(노출면적 $1cm^2$) 시편을 제작하여 전기화학적 부식 실험을 수행하여 부식 특성을 상호 비교 분석하였다. 전기화학적 부식 실험은 침적실험, 동전위 양극 음극 분극 실험을 실시하여 전위 변화에 따른 전류밀도 추이를 분석하여 부식 경향을 파악하였다. 그리고 전기화학 실험 후 손상부의 SEM 관찰과 손상 깊이 분석 및 무게 감소량 계측을 통한 종합적인 분석을 통해 온도-부식 경향의 상관관계를 규명하였다. 또한 분극 실험 후 타펠 외삽법으로 부식전위와 부식전류밀도를 구하여 미처리된 재료 및 플라즈마 이온질화 온도 변화에 따른 상대적 부식 속도를 예측하였다.

The primary objective of this study is to elucidate the contribution of the electrostatic and molecula structural properties of an active layer of the thin film compsite (TFC) membranes to fouling tendency. The studies of surface morphology and surface charge were very effective in understanding fouling behaviors of the reverse osmosis (RO) membranes which were the thin film composite type of ployamide. Results of microscopic morphology analyzed by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and surface charge analyzed by electrokinetic analyzer (EKA) showed important factors affecting the fouling of RO membranes. The active layer of the composite membrane possessing realtively neutral streaming charge and less roughness provided a RO membrane with slowly decreasing flux.

실리콘 (Si) 기판 위에 고품질의 갈륨질화물 (GaN) 박막을 성장시키기 위한 노력이 계속되고 있다. 실리콘 기판은 사파이어 기판 보다 경제적인 측면에서 유리하고, 실리콘 직접화 공정에 GaN 소자를 쉽게 접목 가능하다는 장점이 있다. GaN 박막은 2차원 전자 가스형성을 통한 고속소자, 직접 천이형 밴드갭을 이용한 발광소자 및 고전압 소자로써 활용 가능한 물질이다. 종래에는 Si(100) 및 Si(111) 기판 위에 GaN 박막 성장에 대한 연구가 주로 진행되었다. 하지만 대칭성과 격자 불일치도 등 결정학적 특성을 고려할 때 Si(100) 기판 위에 고품질의 GaN 박막을 성장시키는 것은 쉽지 않다. Si(111) 기판은 실리콘 소자 직접화 공정에 적합하지 못한 단점을 가지고 있다. 반면, 최근 Si(110) 기판 위에서 비등방적 변형 제어를 통한 고품질 GaN 박막 성장이 보고 되어 실리콘 집적 소자와 결합한 고전압 소자 및 고속소자 구현에 관한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 투과전자현미경 연구를 바탕으로 Si(110) 기판 위에 성장된 GaN의 미세구조에 관한 연구를 소개한다. 열팽창계수의 차이에 의한 GaN 박막 내 결함 생성을 줄이기 위하여 AlN 완충층이 사용되었다. GaN 박막을 암모니아 ($NH_3$) 유량이 다른 조건에서 성장시킴으로써 GaN 박막 미세구조의 암모니아 유량 의존성에 관한 연구를 진행하였다. GaN 박막에서 투과전자현미경 연구와 X-ray 회절 연구를 통하여 결함 거동 및 결정성을 확인하였다. $NH_3$ 유랑이 증가함에 따라 GaN의 성장 거동이 3차원에서 2차원으로 변화됨을 관찰하였다. 또한, 전위밀도의 증가도 확인되었다. $NH_3$ 유량이 낮은 경우 GaN 전위는 AlN와 GaN 경계에 주로 위치하고 GaN 표면 근처에는 전위밀도가 감소하였으나, $NH_3$ 유량이 높을 경우 GaN 박막 표면까지 전위가 관통됨을 확인하였다.

The repair technique using surface impregnation of reactive compound is so effective for deteriorated concrete structures that many researches are recently focused on these works. Particularly, inorganic impregnant is regarded as ecofriendly material because there is no air-pollution during manufacturing process as well as field coating works. Furthermore, The delamination between old concrete and impregnated surface does not occur, resulting from different material characteristics. In order to evaluate the durability performance of surface-impregnated concrete, durability evaluation through the long-term exposure tests is significant, however, experiments are usually limited to the temporary and qualitative laboratorial scope. In this study, durability characteristics for inorganic and organic/inorganic impregnated concrete specimens are evaluated through longterm chloride exposure test. The specimens with 21MPa and 34MPa strength have been prepared and exposed to chloride attack in the atmospheric, tidal, and submerged conditions. Evaluation for compressive strength, chloride penetration, and electrical potential (half cell potential) for steel corrosion are performed for the specimens exposed for 2 years. From the results, no distinct strength gaining is observed but the resistance to chloride penetration and steel corrosion is evaluated to be improved through surface impregnation. The more improved resistance to chloride attack is measured in the inorganic impregnated concrete and the results from atmospheric condition show more improved resistance to chloride attack than those from submerged and tidal condition.

UV protection cosmetics belong to functional cosmetics and contain organic or inorganic UV blocking pigments. The inorganic UV blocking pigments are mainly zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. It is known that inorganic UV blocking pigment has a diameter of 60 to 100 nm and has good blocking ability of UVA and UVB. Also, it has high inactivity against sunlight including UV and is excellent in safety. In addition, it is not absorbed or accumulated on the skin like organic pigments and does not cause skin irritation or allergy. In this study, mica, a plate-shaped inorganic pigment, nanosized titanium dioxide, an UV blocking material, and hydrophobic silica were surface-treated with surfactants. And then, titanium dioxide nanoparticles and silica were physically adsorbed on the mica by non-chemical mutual attraction due to differences in charge. Thereafter, the mica complex was surface-treated with silane to prepare a hydrophobic UV blocking pigment complex. The plate-shaped UV blocking composite improves the cohesiveness of a general nanoparticle material titanium dioxide, enhances UV blocking effect due to uniform dispersion, and can greatly improve dispersion stability in cosmetic formulations by surface treatment with hydrophobic property. The surface charge of the pigment was evaluated by zeta potential. The properties of the UV blocking pigment complex were evaluated by FE-SEM, XRD, FT-IR and UV-VIS.
