The historical consumption of oil dispersant was recorded during the protection plans after huge oil spill occurred in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010. As a well-known oil dispersant, Corexit 9500 was used and continuously blamed for the negative effects on environmental ecology. Nevertheless, US EPA still recognizes Corexit 9500 as a future oil dispersant that might be possibly sprayed again to oil slick. In order to develop alternative oil dispersants, it is important to impel the convergency works mainly from microbiologist, ecologist, environmentalist, chemist, and chemical engineer. In this paper, the major components of Corexit 9500 were introduced by chemical structures and physical properties. Presented were also the biodegradable process of dispersed oils and the possible candidates of biosurfactants.

Stable graphene dispersions in various organic solvents and in water were achieved via noncovalent functionalization of graphene surfaces using different types of commercially available surfactants. Stable dispersions were obtained in short time sonication, 3 h. In NMP, graphene with Tween and Span series, and with Pluronic surfactants showed stable dispersions. In ethanol, nitrogen based surfactants showed stable dispersions. In water and dichloromethane partially stable graphene dispersions were obtained using poly(4-vinyl pyridine) and sodium dodecyl sulfonate surfactants. Large scale productions of stable dispersions were successful using poly(4-vinyl pyridine), poly(vinyl pyrrolidone), and poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate). Thus, this work will serve as a library to select the surfactants for different solvent systems.

Chayacterlstics of the sophorolipid produced from Candida bombiocola were investigated as an emulsifier of oil, a detergent or as a dispersant. Improved emulsification of crude oil was observed at high temperature ($70^{\circ}C$) with less than 1% concentration. Sophorolipid solution produced little foam even at reduced surface tension, however performance as a detergent of soiled cloths was poor. Dispersing and stabilizing abilities of sophorolipid solution were proved to be superior to those of chemical dispersants when examined by dispersing $Fe_2O_3$ or carbon black powders.

환경문제에 대해 오래 전부터 관심을 가져온 선진국은 잉크의 수성화에 주력하여 왔으며, 그 결과 이미 수용성 소재의 양산체재에 들어가 수성 원료 사업을 대형화하는 추세에 있다. 이에 한화석유화학 중앙연구소에선 스티렌/아크릴계 수용성 High Solid 수지를 개발하여, 수성 잉크용 분산제, Resin Fortified Emulsion (RFE), UV Resist 잉크, 수성코팅제, 바닥광택제 등에 적요하기 위한 응용기술을 개발하였다. 본 연구는 수성 잉크의 주요 구성 성분인 grinding vehicle. let-down vehicle로 사용되는 수용성 High Solid 수지 (SAA 수지) 및 이를 이용한 에멀젼 수지의 합성과 수성 잉크로의 응용에 대한 것이다. SAA(HCC Soluryl Resin) 수지는 구조적으로 Styrene, Alpha-methyl Styrene, crylic Acid의 삼원공중합체이며 약 70%의 소수성 물질과 30%의 친수성 물질이 Random 하게 중합되어 있으며 약 5000∼15000정도의 낮은 분자량을 가진 물질로, 고고형분에서도 낮은 점도를 유지하기 위하여 분자량과 좁은 분자량과 좁은 분자량을 가지는 수지를 연속벌크중합방법으로 합성하였다. 또한 이를 고분자 유화제로서 사용하여 수지보강 에멀젼수지 (RFE 수지, HCC Soluryl Emulsion) 를 제조하는데 사용하였으며, SAA수지 및 RFE수지를 수성잉크용 분산제, 잉크 바인더용으로 적용하였다.

The iron oxide ($Fe_3O_4$) particles in the coolant of the secondary system of a nuclear power plant reduce the heat transfer performance or induce corrosion on the surface of the heat transfer tube. To prevent these problems, we conducted a study to improve the dispersion stability of iron oxide using polymeric dispersant injection in simulated secondary system water. The three kinds of anionic polymers containing carboxyl groups were selected. The dispersion characteristics of the iron oxide particles with the polymeric dispersants were evaluated by performing a settling test and measuring the transmission, the zeta potential, and the hydrodynamic particle size of the colloid solutions. Polymeric dispersants had a significant impact on the iron oxide dispersion stability in an aqueous solution. While the dispersant injection tended to improve the dispersion stability, the dispersion stability of iron oxide did not increase linearly with an increase in the dispersant concentration. This non-linearity is due to the agglomerations between the iron oxide particles above a critical dispersant concentration. The effect of the dispersant on the dispersion stability improvement was significant when the dispersant concentration ratio (ppm, dispersant/magnetite) was in the range of 0.1 to 0.01. This suggests that the optimization of dispersant concentration is required to maximize the iron oxide removal effect with the dispersant injection considering the applied environments, the iron oxide concentration and the concentration ratio of dispersant to iron oxide.

Silver nanoparticles were attached by chemical reduction after synthesizing a porous PVK-CTA complex. The PVK-CTA complex was synthesized by polymerizing N-vinylcarbazole in a CTA-chloroform solution using iron(III) chloride as an oxidizing agent and a honeycomb-pattern with uniformly formed macropores was formed by applying steam to the complex surface soaked with a volatile solvent under humid conditions. Using TTF as a reducing agent and PVP as a dispersant, silver nanoparticles were attached on the Honeycomb-pattern complex surface through chemical reduction. The formation of the complex was confirmed by FT-IR and UV-Vis spectrometry, and the degree of thermal decomposition of the complexes was analyzed after N-vinylcarbazole was polymerized by varying its concentration. The uniformity of the pores on the composite surface and the dispersibility of the attached silver nanoparticles were investigated by SEM. The dispersibility of the silver nanoparticles was also analyzed by varying the concentrations of reducing agent and dispersant and precursor.

The dispersing activity and physical properties of exopolysaccharide (Cystan) produced by Cystobacter sp. MSL-9 was studied. Dispersing activity of Cystan was measured by using bentonite, calcium carbonate, and kaolin. Rheological properties of Cystan were investigated by using a rheometer MCR300. It was found that dispersing activity of Cystan was maintained under various pH and temperature conditions. A particle size analyzer BI-9000AT was used for the particle size measurement of Cystan in aqueous solution. The high dispersing activity and stability under various pH and temperature conditions showed the feasibility of Cystan as a industrial biodispersant.

전 세계에서 콘크리트 관련 기술의 변천사를 살펴보면 공기 연행제(air entraining agent), 감수제 (water reducing agent), 고성능 감수제(superplasticizer high range water reducing agent)로 대변되는 콘크리트용 화학 혼화제의 개발이 콘크리트의 성능 향상의 큰 전기 중의 하나 라고 할 수 있다. 1930년대 미국에서 우연히 발견된 공기 연행제의 사용으로 콘크리트의 동결 융해 저항 성능을 획기적으로 개선할 수 있게 되었으며 또한 펄프 폐액에서 추출되는 리그닌(lignosulfonates)이 시멘트의 분산성을 높여 주는 것을 발견하게 되었다.(중략)

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.
