대표적인 TCO 물질인 ITO는 디스플레이 패널이나 태양 전지 등과 같은 소자에 널리 사용되고 있다. 최근에는 대량생산 및 대면적화, 그리고 유연 디스플레이 응용을 위해 롤투롤 스퍼터링(roll to roll sputtering) 공정을 이용하여 플라스틱 기판에 ITO박막을 증착하여 ITO 필름을 제작하고 있다. 롤투롤 방식으로 ITO 필름의 제작 시 공정 변수에 따라 ITO 박막의 전기적 광학적 물성 변화가 매우 크기 때문에, 공정 변수에 따른 ITO 박막의 전기적, 광학적 특성 변화에 대한 연구의 필요성이 매우 높아지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 롤투롤 스퍼터링 방법으로 PET 기판 위에 다양한 조건으로 ITO 박막을 증착하여 공정변수에 따른 ITO 박막의 물성을 조사 하였다. 이를 위해 ITO (In/Sn=95/5 wt.%) 타겟을 사용하여 DC 파워와 산소 분압비, 열처리 온도 등을 변화시켜 낮은 면저항과 높은 광투과도를 가지는 최적의 ITO 증착 조건을 찾은 후 ITO 박막을 PET 기판 위에 두께 별로 증착 하였다. ITO 박막의 두께와 열처리 온도에 따른 전기적 특성은 면저항 측정기와 홀 측정 장치를 이용하여 분석하였고, 분광광도계와 탁도 측정기를 이용하여 광학적 특성을 관찰하였다. 또한, GIXD를 이용하여 이들 박막의 구조와 결정성에 대한 조사를 수행하였다. 이 결과들로부터 산소 분압비에 따른 ITO/PET 박막의 저항 특성 변화와 ITO 박막의 두께와 열처리 온도에 따른 구조적, 전기적, 광학적 특성을 조사하여, 롤투롤 스퍼터링법에서 공정 조건에 따른 ITO/PET 필름의 물성변화를 보고하고자 한다.

In order to improve the surface hardness of transparent plastic films, organic-inorganic hybrid coating solutions were synthesized by the sol-gel method. The coating solutions were prepared by adding GPTMS (glycidoxypropyl trimethoxysilane) to a colloidal silica (12 nm) suspension. PC(polycarbonate) substrates were dipped into the coating solutions and dried at room temperature for 10 min before being cured at $80^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. The effect of the solution pH and GPTMS content was investigated on the properties of coating films. The pencil hardness and adhesion to substrates of the coating films, prepared at acidic condition (pH 4), showed better properties than those at neutral or basic conditions. Also, the pencil hardness and adhesion to substrates of the coating films increased with increasing GPTMS content.

This study was conducted to find out the appropriate packaging materials to extend the storability and maintain the quality of cherry tomato for modified atmosphere (MA) storage. Tomatoes were grown by hydroponic at a plastic house in Gangwon Province. Light red maturity stage tomatoes were harvested and packed with MA condition (10,000; 20,000; 40,000; 60,000; 80,000; and $100,000cc/m^2.day.atm$ $O_2$ permeability film) and perforated film to store at $5^{\circ}C$, $11^{\circ}C$ and $24^{\circ}C$. The fresh weight loss was less than 0.6% in all non-perforated breathable films at $^5{\circ}C$, $11^{\circ}C$, and $24^{\circ}C$, but perforated film had less than 2.93% at $5^{\circ}C$, 13.29% at $11^{\circ}C$ and 27.24% at $24^{\circ}C$. The 20,000cc at $5^{\circ}C$ and $11^{\circ}C$, and the 40,000cc film at $24^{\circ}C$ balanced optimum carbon dioxide and oxygen concentration in the package to maintain quality. The 10,000cc film was appeared the significantly highest ethylene concentration at $5^{\circ}C$, $11^{\circ}C$, and $24^{\circ}C$, this film had the lowest $O_2$ permeability. Visual quality, firmness, and soluble solids were maintained in 20,000cc films both at $5^{\circ}C$ and $11^{\circ}C$, the 40,000cc film at $24^{\circ}C$. There was no any trend in titratable acidity and vitamin C content of treated packed film types and temperatures at cherry tomatoes packages. Therefore, the appropriate MA condition for $5^{\circ}C$ and $11^{\circ}C$ is $20,000cc/m^2.day.atm$ $O_2$ permeability film; for $24^{\circ}C$ it is $40,000cc/m^2.day.atm$ $O_2$ permeability film because those films extended the storability through the firmness, soluble solids as well as visual quality.

차세대 디스플레이로서 주목 받고 있는 유연성 정보표시 소자 개발에 대한 요구도가 날로 증대되고 있다. 유연성 정보표시 소자로서 플라스틱 기반 유연성 소자가 특히 주목 받고 있으나, 이의 실용화를 위해서는 플라스틱 기판에 적용 가능한 보호막 형성 기술 개발이 선행되어야 한다. 플라스틱 필름의 경우 높은 산소 및 수분 투과율 때문에 유연성 디스플레이의 응용에 걸림돌이 되고 있다. 플라스틱 기반 유연성 소자의 장수명화를 위해서는 수분과 산소의 투과를 방지하는 passivation layer 형성 기술이 필수적으로 요구된다. 본 연구에서는, polyethylene terephethalate (PET) 기판상에 증착된 $SiO_x$ 보호막의 합성에 있어서 중간층 유무에 따른 투습특성의 변화를 살펴보았다. 기화된 HMDSO (Hexamethyldisiloxane)와 Ar 및 $O_2$ 혼합기체를 이용하여 PECVD 방법으로 $SiO_x$ 박막을 합성하였다. 15 nm 두께의 $Al_2O_3$를 중간층으로 사용하여 중간층 유무에 따른 초기성장 거동 변화가 $SiO_x$ 박막의 투습 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. $SiO_x$ 박막 구조와 화학적 조성은 각각 FE-SEM과 FT-IR을 이용하여 분석하였으며, AFM을 이용하여 $SiO_x$ 박막 표면 미세 형상을 관찰하였다. 투습률은 MOCON사(社)의 Permatran-W 3/33 MA을 이용하여 측정하였다. 그리고 반복 굽힘 시험기를 이용하여 $SiO_x$ 보호막의 동적 투습 특성을 조사하였다. $Al_2O_3$ 중간층 유무에 따라 $SiO_x$ 박막의 투습률 (WVTR; water vapor transmission rate)은 ${\sim}10^{-1}g/m^2/day$(300 nm-thick $SiO_x$/PET)에서 ${\sim}5{\times}10^{-3}g/m^2/day$(300 nm-thick $SiO_x$/15 nm-thick $Al_2O_3$/PET)으로 변화하였다. 300 nm-thick $SiO_x$/15 nm-thick $Al_2O_3$/PET 시편의 경우 곡지름 50 mm에서 1,000회 반복 굽힘 후에도 투습률 변화를 보이지 않았다. 이와 같은 $SiO_x$ 박막의 투습 특성 변화는 $Al_2O_3$ 중간층 유무에 따른 초기 성장 거동의 변화로 해석된다. FE-SEM 및 AFM 표면 미세 구조 관찰을 통한 초기 성장 거동 변화 조사 결과, $Al_2O_3$ 중간층 없이 PET 기판위에 $SiO_x$ 박막 증착한 경우 3 차원 성장을 하는 반면, PET기판위에 $Al_2O_3$ 중간층 형성 후 $SiO_x$ 박막 증착하는 경우 2 차원 성장을 하게 됨을 관찰하였다. 따라서 본 연구를 통하여, 플라스틱 기반 유연성 표시 소자에 적용하기 위한 $SiO_x$ 보호막 합성 에 있어서 초기 성장 거동의 변화가 투습 특성에 민감한 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the changes of rate of infected common scab and yield characteristics of fall potato(Solanum tuberosum L.) where green manual crops had been previously cultivated, crushed and tilled and P\ulcornerE transparent vinyl film had been mulched and tunneled to solar heating of soil from May 21. 1998 to July 28. 1998. The total yields of green manual crops which had been previousely cultivated were as followed order : pioneer 855F(64.3MT/ha), soybean(25.0MT/ha), red clover and orchardgrass. The average below-ground temperature at the depths of 5, 10 and 20cm were 54, 45 and 44$^{\circ}C$ during the mulching period, respectively The rate of infected area per potato tuber of common scab decreased by solar heating the soils with mulching after the soybean and red clover cultivation as with previous croppings. Plant height, SPAD(soil plant analysis development) reading, fresh weight of stems, and fall potato's tuber yields tended to increase by the cultivation of green manual crops and mulching of P\ulcornerE film. Fall potato's tuber yields were remarkably affected in the plot of soybean, red clover and pioneer 855F+cultivation of fall potato. T-N, K and Ca contents of fall potato(stem and tuber) also tended to increase by the cultivation of green manual crops and mulching of P\ulcornerE film. T-N, K and Ca contents of soil tended to increase after the cultivation of green manual crops and mulching of P\ulcornerE film and then reduced to contents of soil before green manual planting after potato harvesting.

Low density polyethylene (LDPE) films incorporated with 1% antimicrobial agents of Rheum palmatum extract, Coptis chinensis extract, and Ag-substituted inorganic zirconium matrix, were applied to modified atmosphere packaging of 200 g fresh strawberries. Plain LDPE film package, PVC wrap and perforative pinhole package of the film impregnated with 1% Rheum palmatum extract were also constructed for comparative purpose. All the packages were stored for 13 days at $5^{\circ}C$ and measured in package atmosphere, microbial count and quality attributes of the strawberry fruits. The antimicrobial LDPE films retarded the growth in total aerobic bacteria, lactic acid bacteria and yeast on the fruits, and resulted in significantly lower decay. The degrees of reduced microbial growth and fruit decay in the antimicrobial film packages were more pronounced, when applied by hermetical sealing to produce the modified atmospheres of low $O_2$ (<4.0%) and $CO_2$ concentrations with $6.3{\sim}9.0%$. The hermetically sealed packages of antimicrobial LDPE films also showed better retention of fruit firmness and did not give any negative effect on the physical and chemical qualities of strawberries.

The volatile organic compounds emitted from food wrapping films when it was used at high temperatures. However, the testing method based on solvent extraction may not be suitable for determination of volatile organic compounds from food wrapping films. Therefore, thermal extraction device was investigated in the study for reflection of actual usage conditions at home and restaurant. In this study, PVC food wrapping films were exposed to normal use condition controlled from $50^{\circ}C$ to $120^{\circ}C$ and collected on sorbent trap. Then, emitted VOCs from the films were analyzed with On-column cryofocusing-GC/MS system. The major VOCs emitted from films were $C_{12}-C_{18}$ paraffinic hydrocarbons, dimethylphthalate, alkylphenols, known as endocrine disrupting chemical, such as tetramethylbutylphenol, tert-butylphenol, and nonylphenol. The concentration of tetramethylbutylphenol emitted from PVC films was $0.07ng/cm^2$ at $50^{\circ}C$, rapidly increased with temperature, $3.94ng/cm^2$ at $100^{\circ}C$.

Modified atmosphere packaging(MAP) technology was applied to ‘Tsugaru’apple (Malus domestica Borkh) in order to extend the shelf-life of apples during distribution. ‘Tsugaru’apples were packed with the PE film of 40 $\mu\textrm{m}$ thickness(40LD), the PE film modified by the addition of 5% (w/w) zeolite (40CK), and the PE film bags containing the ethylene absorbent (40LP). Quality indices of ‘Tsugaru’apples during storage at 10$^{\circ}C$ were measured in terms of weight loss, soluble solids content, pH, titratable acidity, flesh firmness, peel color and sensory properties. Oxygen, carbon dioxide and ethylene concentration in the film bags changed rapidly at the early stage of storage. Weight loss of the control increased up to 3.0% after 60 days storage while those of the packed apples remained less than 0.6%. No significant differences in soluble solids content and titratable acidity could be found in all the treatments, but significant differences in pH between the control and the packed apples. Higher firmness was kept in 40LD and 40LD than other treatments during storage. Color of the peel changed rapidly in control but slowly in 40LD and 40LP. ‘Tsugaru’apples Packed with Packaging films showed a good visual and sensory quality. Results suggest that packaging treatment with LDPE of 40 $\mu\textrm{m}$ thickness and ethylene absorbent can be used for extending the shelf-life of ‘Tsugaru’apples during distribution.

The increasing use of plastics in food packaging materials has led to the issue of food-packaging mutual interactions from residues in the plastics. Plastic films are commonly printed by using solvent-based ink to decorate the packaged food for consumer attention. However, the residual solvents can not be completely removed and they can migrate into the contained food which lead to undesirable off-flavors. Partitioning (Kp) of printing ink solvents was studied in two types of plastic films with different chemical structure and polarity. At $25^{\circ}C$, Kp of toluene is higher than that of isopropanol in PP, but isopropanol showed higher Kp value than toluene in EVOH. This showed that polarity had a significant effect on the partitioning of printing ink solvents into the plastic films. Printing solvents had a higher affinity to the polymer with similar polarity than it did to the different one.
