Colloidal silica is used in various industrial products such as chemical mechanical polishing slurry for planarization of silicon and sapphire wafer, organic-inorganic hybrid coatings, binder of investment casting, etc. An accurate determination of particle size and dispersion stability of silica sol is demanded because it has a strong influence on surface of wafer, film of coatings or bulks having mechanical, chemical and optical properties. The study herein is discussed on the effect of measurement results of average particle size, sol viscosity and electrophoretic mobility of particle according to the volume fraction of eight types of silica sol with different size and surface properties of silica particles which are presented by the manufacturer. The measured particle size and the mobility of these sol were changed by volume fraction or particle size due to highly active surface of silica particle and change of concentration of counter ion by dilution of silica sol. While in case the measured sizes of small particles less than 60 nm are increased with increasing volume fraction, the measured sizes of larger particles than 60 nm are slightly decreased. The mobility of small particle such as 12 nm are decreased with increase of viscosity. However, the mobility of 100 nm particles under 0.048 volume fraction are increased with increasing volume fraction and then decreased over higher volume fraction.

Zinc plated steel tire cords were treated with RF plasma polymerization coating of acetylene or butadiene in order to enhance adhesion to rubber compounds. Plasma polymerization was carried out as a function of plasma power, treatment tune and gas pressure. In order to maximize adhesion, argon plasma etching was performed, with carrier gas such as argon, nitrogen and oxygen, while the adhesion of tire cords was evaluated via TCAT. Best results were obtained from a combination treatment of argon etching (90 W. 10 min, 30 mTorr) and acetylene plasma polymerization coating (10 W, 30 sec, 30 mTorr) with argon carrier gas (25/5:acetylene/argon). These samples exhibited a pull out force of 285N which is comparable to that obtained from the brass plated tire cords (290N).

Processible polyaniline (PAM) dispersions consisting of polyaniline micro-particles, cyclohexanone, and a polymeric surfactant were prepared in a micro-milling machine with various mixing conditions. The electrochemical properties of the dispersion film coated on Pt electrode were investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The electrochemistry of the PAM dispersion coatings was basically similar to a pure PAM coating based on the results of CV. The results of polarization measurements and open circuit potential measurements carried out in $3\;wt.\%$ NaCI solution showed increase in corrosion potential when the PANI dispersion coatings applied on steel surface. Variation of open circuit potential $(OCP,\;V_{OC})$ of the dispersion coating/steel electrodes was observed, which differed with milling conditions. The results demonstrated practical use of the conducting polymer dispersion as a coating material for corrosion prevention of steel.

무전해 니켈도금 용액의 성분은 Ni(II)염, 환원제, 적합한 금속 배위 리간드, 안정제 및 특정 특성 요구에 대한 첨가제를 포함한다. 일반적으로 도금 욕에는 미량의 안정제가 함유되어 있다. 만약 적절한 안정화 시스템이 없는 도금 욕에서 도금 공정 시 도금 시작 직후에 많은 양의 니켈 플레이크(Ni flake)가 생성되어 빠르게 도금 용액이 분해되어 더 이상 도금이 어렵게 된다. 그러나 무전해 도금 욕에서 안정제의 역할 및 도금 층에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구는 여전히 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 $Pb^{2+}$ 안정제 농도가 도금 층에 미치는 영향과 캐비테이션 침식 실험을 통해 그 내구성을 평가하고자 하였다. 무전해 니켈코팅을 위한 모재는 회주철(FC250)을 $19.5mm{\times}19.5mm{\times}5mm$의 크기로 가공하였다. 회주철의 인장강도는 $330N/mm^2$이며, 그 성분 조성(wt.%)은 3.23 C, 1.64 Si, 0.84 Mn, 0.016 P, 0.013 S 그리고 나머지는 Fe이다. 시험편은 SiC 페이퍼 #1200까지 연마하여 시험편의 표면 거칠기는 $1.6-2.1{\mu}m$ 범위 내로 제작하였다. 무전해 도금 전 시험편은 탈지를 위해 상온의 아세톤 용액에서 3분간 초음파 세척하고, $90^{\circ}C$의 알카리 수용액으로 5분간 세척하였다. 그리고 표면 활성화를 위한 산세척은 5% 황산용액에서 30초 동안 실시하였다. 도금조로 500mL 비커를 사용하였으며, 모든 시험편은 2시간 동안 무전해 니켈도금을 실시하였다. 그리고 니켈도금 층의 내식성과 내구성을 평가하기 위해 전기화학적 분극 실험을 통한 타펠분석과 ASTM G32 규정에 의거한 캐비테이션 침식 실험을 실시하였다. 그 결과 안정제 농도가 도금 속도와 도금 층의 성분 변화에 크게 영향을 미쳤으며, 그에 따라 도금 층의 내식성과 내구성이 크게 변화되었다.

용액 중에서 나노입자의 전기영동 특성을 이용한 전자종이용 잉크 제조를 위해 $TiO_2$ 나노입자를 저유전율 용매인 cyclohexane에 혼합한 후 용매와 용질의 비중차를 줄이기 위해 분말 상 polyethylen을 첨가하여 high energy milling의 방법으로 입자분쇄와 동시에 입자 표면에 고분자 풍을 코팅하였다. 용액내의 입자 분산성 향상과 용매 착색을 위하여 계면활성제와 oil-blue N을 첨가한 후 전자종이용 잉크를 제조하여 측정한 제타 전위 결과 cyclohexane 내에서 $TiO_2$의 제타전위는 -40mV 정도였으나 polyethylene으로 코팅한 후 계면활성제를 첨가하였을 경우 최대 -110mV 이상의 높은 값을 나타내었다. 실제 디스플레이 특성을 평가하기 위해 포토리소그래피를 이용하여 3인치 크기의 ITO glass 위에 $10{\mu}m$의 크기를 갖는 십자형의 격벽을 $40{\mu}m$의 높이로 균일하게 형성한 후 합성된 전자잉크로 주입하여 상부전극과 하부전극사이에 UV 경화제를 도포하여 UV 접합을 실시하였다. 격벽 내에서 입자의 mobility를 측정하여 환산된 전자잉크의 응답속도는 0.1cm/sec로 측정되었으나, 전기영동시 입자들의 움직임에 따른 반사광의 파형을 측정한 경우 0.07cm/sec의 응답속도를 나타내었다.

Submicron copper-silver core-shell (Cu@Ag) particles were synthesized using the sonochemical combined transmetallation reaction and the application to printed electronics as a low cost conductive paste was evaluated. $Cu_2O$ of the $Cu_2O/Cu$ composite used as a core in the reaction for the synthesis of core-shell was sonochemically reduced to Cu, and Cu atoms functioned as a reducer for silver ions in transmetallation to achieve the copper-silver core-shell structure. The characterization of submicron particles by TEM-EDS and TG-DSC confirmed the core-shell structure. Conductive pastes in which 70 wt% Cu@Ag was dispersed in solvents were prepared using a binder and wetting agents, and coated on the polyamide film using a screen-printing method. Printed paste films containing synthesized Cu@Ag particles with 8 at% and 16 at% Ag exhibited low resistivity of 96.2 and $38.4{\mu}{\Omega}cm$ after sintering at $180^{\circ}C$ in air, respectively.

Manganese-Coated Sand(MCS) prepared with three different methods were applied in the treatment of soluble $Mn^{2+}$ in batch and column experiments. In the bench-scale MCS preparation, the coating efficiency of manganese on the surface of sand increased as the dosage of initial Mn(II) increased. The removed amount of the soluble $Mn^{2+}$ by MCS increased as the solution pH increased, following a typical anionic-type adsorption. The removed amounts of the soluble $Mn^{2+}$ through adsorption was quite similar over the entire pH range, without depending on the contents of Mn on the surface of sand as well as coating methods. When NaClO was used an oxidant, the removed amount of the soluble $Mn^{2+}$ by MCS increased as the concentration of NaClO increased, This trend might be explained by the increased removal efficiency through coating of manganese oxides produced from oxidation of the soluble $Mn^{2+}$ by NaClO on the surface of MCS. From the bench-scale column experiments, the breakthrough of $Mn^{2+}$ occurred after 4,100 bed volume without presence of NaClO while 1.6-times delayed breakthrough of $Mn^{2+}$ was observed in the presence of NaClO. This result also supports that the removal efficiency of the soluble $Mn^{2+}$ could be enhanced by using NaClO.

Poly vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) hollow fiber membranes were hydrophilized using polyethylenimine (PEI) and p-xylylene dichloride (XDC), and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and poly (acrylic acid -co- maleic acid) (PAM) mixed solutions by varying the concentration of PAM were coated onto PVDF membrane surface. The surface coating was verified by the observation of scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the permselective characteristcs of the resulting composite membranes were tested for 90 wt% aqueous ethanol solution by the pervaporation technique. The effects of the corsslinking agent concentraion, the temperature of feed solution, and the reaction temperature on the flux and separation factors were measured. Typically, the flux, $1,480g/m^2hr$ at the reaction temperature $100^{\circ}C$, PAM 3 wt%, feed temperature $70^{\circ}C$ was obtained, on the other hand, for the separation factor, ${\alpha}_{W/E}=82$ at the conditions of the reaction temperature $100^{\circ}C$, PAM 15 wt% and feed temperature $25^{\circ}C$ was shown.

The effect of filler type and dispersion time on thin film characterization is studied. Hollow silica powders which have the advantage of transmittance are selected. In this paper, the characterization of haze, transmittance, and gloss are analyzed in terms of filler concentration and coating thickness, respectively. As a result, the value of haze and gloss increased with increasing of filler concentration and coating thickness, respectively. In addition, the variation of transmittance by filler concentration and coating thickness is not occurred. In conclusion, it is assumed that hollow silica powders as a filler have an advantage of concentration increment and transmittance.
