A bacterium capable of emulsifying hydrocarbon, n-hexadecane, and decreasing surface tension of the culture media using oil collapsing method was isolated. The bacterium was partially identified as Bacillus sp. and named BJS-51. n-Hexadecane was the most effective carbon source for production of biosurfactant. Surface tension was decreased from 76 dyne/cm to 31 dyne/cm and CMD (critical micelle dilution) had the highest value of 5.7 at 3% n-hexadecane. Ammonium phosphate was the most effective nitrogen source, when C/N ratio was 60, surface tension and CMD were 29 dyne/cm and 9.2, respectively. Optimum pH and temperature were 7.2 and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. Produced biosurfactant was extracted and purified using organic solvent extraction method and preparative HPLC systems. After analysis by various color reaction, this biosurfactant was identified as lipopolysaccharide. Surface tension and CMC (critical micelle concentration) of purified biosurfactant were 27 dyne/cm and 0.08 g/l, repectively. CMD was 9.2, so the yield of biosurfactant was about 0.74 g/l at the optimal conditions. The biosurfactant was very stable at wide range of $pH\;2{\sim}12$ with surface tension $29{\sim}31\;dyne/cm$ and showed $29{\sim}30\;dyne/cm$ of surface tension after heat treatment at $100^{\circ}C$ for 60 min.

The Plasma film treated with a high electric voltage was developed to enhance flow down of condensation drops on inside plastic film. Arch type greenhouse framed with iron pipe of 25mm diameter defand 1.5mm thickness were covered with either the developed plasma film or surfactant film(control). Green pepper seedlings raised for 40 days in plug trays were transplanted at a density of 110cm by 30cm in each greenhouse. The mount of condensational water on film surface, generated by 7$0^{\circ}C$ water bath chimney systems and flew down, was collected and measured. The amount of collected water after 150 minutes was 2.56 mL.100c $m^{-2}$ and 0.94mL.100c $m^{-2}$ , respectively, in the plasma film and surfactant film-covered greenhouses. The amount of condensational water drops attached on the cover at 08:20 a.m. at 60 days filter covering was 0.34mL.100c $m^{02}$ and 0.32mL.100c $m^{-2}$ , respectively, in the plasma film- and surfactant film-covered greenhouses. Solar irradiance transmitted into greenhouse was 2.0% higher in the greenhouse covered with the plasma film tan that in the greenhouse covered with the surfactant film. Air temperature in the plasma film-covered greenhouse was higher than the surfactant film-covered greenhouse by 0.5$^{\circ}C$. However, there was no difference in relative humidity between the two greenhouse. Plant height, leaf area, dry weight and early yield showed no significant differences.s.

In this study, physical properties of synthesized DE7-OSA82-AO and DEP52-OSA82-AOQ82 zwitterionic surfactants were measured such as critical micelle concentration, surface tension, interfacial tension, contact angle and viscosity. Phase behavior study was also performed. The dual function characteristics of a zwitterionic surfactant were investigated by determining an isoelectric point, which was attained using zeta potential measurements and QCM (quartz crystal microbalance) experiments. The isoelectric point of DE7-OSA82-AO surfactant determined by the zeta potential measurement and QCM experiment was about 7.2 and 7.4, respectively. On the other hand, the isoelectric point of DEP52-OSA82-AOQ82 surfactant determined by the zeta potential measurement and QCM experiment was about 10.9 and 11.0, respectively. The frictional property measured using an automated mildness tester showed that DE7-OSA82-AO surfactant can provide a good softening effect at an acidic or neutral condition. On the other hand, DEP52-OSA82-AOQ82 was found to provide a good softening effect to a fabric surface at a pH below its isoelectric point of 11.

The main goal of this study was to find an optimal surfactant mixture composition for the development of the best performing cleansing products. Three different surfactants including sodium cocoyl alaninate (SCoA), cocamidopropyl betaine (CPB), and decyl glucoside (DG) were selected, which showed excellent properties in detergency, foaming height, and contamination rate through preliminary experiments. The experiments by simplex centroid design matrix for surfactant mixtures were performed, and the regression analysis was conducted with the experimental data. Surface response model equations, which is statistically significant (p < 0.05), were obtained. The optimal composition of the surfactant mixture was also determined as SCoA (0.22), CPB (0.78), and DG(0.00) from simultaneous optimization of three response variables.

In this study, we analyzed the physical properties of an ethylene oxide adducted amphoteric surfactant such as critical micelle concentration, surface tension, interfacial tension, contact angle, viscosity and phase behavior. The dual function characteristics of an amphoteric surfactant were investigated by determining an isoelectric point, which were attained using zeta potential measurements and quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) experiments. The isoelectric points of DE3-OSA82-AO, DE5-OSA82-AO and DE9-OSA82-AO surfactant systems determined by zeta potential measurements were 6.97, 6.93 and 7.10 respectively and they are in good agreement with the isoelectric point values measured by QCM experiments. The frictional property measured using an automated mildness tester showed that the DE-OSA82-AO surfactant could provide a good softening effect at neutral condition.

Surfactants which have ability to decrease surface tension through surface activation between the interfaces are used as essential major raw materials for detergents and cosmetics. Typical synthetic detergents such as EO (ethylene oxide), LAB (linear alkylbenzene) are made from chemical surfactant derived from petrochemicals, therefore, they are responsible for major environment contaminations and ecosystem destruction, especially of rivers and also cause atopic dermatitis through strong skin stimulus of these small molecular's powerful permeability and lead to cancers if they get into organs through capillary. Now worldwide interest is increasing to develop new natural surfactants and biosurfactants as ecological, biodegradabl, harmless and multi-functional new amphiphillic materials which replace these synthetic surfactants.

반도체 생산공정에서 CMP (Chemical-mechanical planarization) 공정은 우수한 전기전도성 재료인 Cu의 사용과 다층구조의 소자를 형성하기 위해서 도입되었으며, 최근 소자의 집적도가 증가함에 따라 CMP 공정 비중은 점점 높아지고 있다. Cu CMP 공정에서 연마제인 슬러리는 금속 표면과의 물리적 화학적 반응을 동시에 사용하여 표면을 연마하게 되며, 연마특성을 향상시키기 위해 산화제, 부식방지제, 분산제 및 다양한 계면활성제가 첨가된다. 하지만 슬러리는 Cu 표면을 평탄화하는 동시에 오염입자, 유기오염물, 스크레치, 표면부식 등을 발생시키며 결과적으로 소자의 결함을 야기시킨다. 특히 부식방지제로 사용되는 BTA (Benzotriazole)은 Cu CMP 공정 중 Cu-BTA 형태로 표면에 흡착되어 오염원으로 작용하며 입자오염을 증가시시고 건조공정에서 물반점 등의 표면 결함을 발생시킨다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 Cu 표면에서 식각과 부식반응을 최소화하며, 오염입자 제거 및 유기오염물을 효과적으로 제거하기 위한 Post-CMP 세정 공정과 세정액 개발이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 오염입자 및 유기물 제거와 동시에 표면 거칠기와 부식현상을 제어할 수 있는 post Cu CMP 세정액을 개발 평가하였다. 오염입자 및 유기오염물을 제거하기 위해서 염기성 용액인 TMAH 사용하였으며, Cu 이온을 용해할 수 있는 Chelating agent와 표면 부식을 억제하는 부식 방지제를 사용하여 세정액을 합성하였다. 접촉각 측정과 FESEM(field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope) 분석을 통하여 CMP 공정에서 발생하는 유기오염물과 오염입자의 흡착과 제거를 확인하였으며 Cu 웨이퍼 세정 전후의 표면 거칠기의 변화와 식각량을 AFM(Atomic Force Microscope)과 4-point probe를 사용하여 각각 평가하였다. 또한 세정액 내에서의 연마입자의 zeta-potential을 측정 및 조절하여 세정력을 향상시켰다. 개발된 세정액과 Cu 표면에서의 화학반응 및 부식방지력은 potentiostat를 이용한 전기화학 분석법을 통해서 chelating agent와 부식방지제의 농도를 최적화 시켰다. 개발된 세정액을 적용함으로써 Cu-BTA 형태의 유기오염물과 오염입자들이 효과적으로 제거됨을 확인하였다.
