This study was conducted to investigate effects of chemical sanitizers on inhibiting foodborne pathogens, such as Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes), Salmonella Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium), and E scherichia coli O157:H7 (E. coli O157:H7), on cabbages. Cabbages were inoculated with the culture cocktail of pathogens and treated with water, 100 ppm commercial chlorine, and 50, 100, and 200 ppm chlorine dioxide ($ClO_2$) for 1, 5, and 10 min at room temperature ($22{\pm}2^{\circ}C$). Treatments with water did not significantly reduce levels of three pathogens whereas other treatments with chemical sanitizers significantly reduced levels of three pathogens. Treatment with 200 ppm $ClO_2$ for 10 min was the most effective at inhibiting pathogens and reduction levels were 1.90, 1.92, and 1.98 log CFU/g for L. monocytogens, S. Typhimurium, and E. coli O157:H7, respectively. Levels of reduction were increased with the increase of $ClO_2$ concentrations. When chemically injured cells were investigated, there were no significant differences on the levels of injured cells between before and after treatment with commercial chlorine and $ClO_2$. These results suggest that $ClO_2$ can be used as an alternative sanitizer for reducing pathogens on fresh produces.

The purpose of this study is to establish experimental canine skin barrier disruption model, the study was designed to observe calcium ion in skin frozen tissue of canine skin and also the modulation of calcium ion distribution of normal skin with disrupted skin such as clipping, acetone, tape stripping damages according to time. To compare the changes of calcium ion gradient after damages, the distribution of calcium ion in the canine epidermis was visualized by blotting to gel containing chemical indicator (Calcium Green-1) with fluorescent microscope and the effects of skin barrier damages were examined according to time. Three mins and 1hr after acetone damage, the gradations of epidermis and hair follicle showed more radiant and disappeared after 48 hrs. On the contrary, 3mins and 1hr after tape stripping damage, the gradations showed more radiant than those of acetone damage, and these gradations were stabilized after 48 hrs. The method we presented here could show the visual image of the calcium ions in frozen tissue without further preparation, and it might be useful to investigate the role of calcium ion in the canine epidermal barrier recovery, however, it might be need further methodological improvement to get accurate quantitative information.

Purpose: The present study was conducted to investigate whether certain repeated physical and/or chemical stimuli added on ophthalmic lenses might induce any changes of the functions of lens coatings. Methods: The changes in lens surface, light transmittance, foggy duration, durability of ophthalmic lenses were determined after the application of tearing-off with tape, rubbing with acetone, soaking in acetone or distilled water of ophthalmic lens (CR-39 material) as physical and/or chemical stimuli. Results: The change of ophthalmic lens surface was detected after soaking in acetone for longer than 30 minutes by observing the lens surface to figure out the functional change of hard coating. The ophthalmic lens soaked in distilled water for 180 minutes showed little functional change of anti-reflection coating as 1% by measuring light transmittance of lens. However, the function of anti-reflection coating was almost disappeared after the ophthalmic lens was soaked in acetone for 60 minutes. The foggy duration of ophthalmic lens soaked in acetone was increased by estimating foggy duration of lens. The lens coating was shown to be defected when the pre-damaged ophthalmic lenses were torn off with tape, rubbed with acetone and soaked in distilled water or acetone by observing pre-damaged lens surface to evaluate its durability. Conclusions: The careful management during ophthalmic lens dispensing or usual eyeglass wearing is needed since the change in ophthalmic lens coatings was shown by repeated physical and/or chemical stimuli.

제염기술은 원자력발전소의 순환계통장치 및 기기류의 방사성 오염물질을 제거하는 기술이다. 현재 국내 원전의 설계 수명 및 유지보수 시기가 도래함에 따라, 작업 전 작업자의 방사선 피사량을 극소화하기 위한 제염 기술이 주목을 받고 있다. 제염 방법에는 크게 기계적 제염과 화학약품을 사용하는 화학제염이 있다. 그 중 화학제염은 복잡한 구조의 제염 대상물에 대한 큰 효과 및 간단한 공정 때문에 주로 사용되고 있다. 제염 시 방사성 산화물과 오염성분을 제거하기 위해 강산 또는 강알칼리의 화학용액이 사용된다. 강한 화학약품을 사용함으로써 큰 제염효과를 얻을 수 있는 반면, 금속 재료의 부식에 대한 구동력도 커지게 된다. 금속 재료의 경우, 강한 부식성 환경에서 공식(pitting corrosion) 및 입계부식(intergranular corrosion)형태의 손상이 크게 발생하기 때문에, 제염공정 시 사용되는 화학용액에 대한 재료의 건전성 검증이 반드시 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 원전기기용 재료인 니켈합금강 Inconel600의 화학제염 시 시험공정 3가지에 대한 부식손상 특성을 규명하였다. 산화공정은 $HMnO_4$ 실험용액을 공통으로 사용하였으며, 산화공정 종료 후 환원공정은 각 시험공정에 따라 환원공정 1은 2000ppm $H_2C_2O_4$, 환원공정 2는 1500ppm $H_2C_2O_4$ + 500ppm $H_8C_6O_7$, 그리고 환원공정 3은 3000ppm $H_2C_2O_4$ 실험용액을 각각 투입하여 수행하였다. 산화, 환원공정을 1Cycle로 하여 온도 $75^{\circ}C$로 유지된 용액에 각 2시간씩 침적하였다. 각 시험공정 별로 총 5Cycle을 실시하였다. 각 시험공정 Cycle종료 후 시험편을 취외하여 무게감량측정, SEM(Scanning electron microscope)분석, 3D현미경분석 그리고 타펠분극 실험을 실시하였다. 각 분석결과를 토대로 하여, 니켈합금 Inconel600에 대한 화학제염 시 시험공정에 따른 부식특성을 규명하였다.

The gas acceleration test was conducted to identify the deterioration of Korean traditional textiles caused by $NO_2$. Total 20 specimens were prepared using 4 different materials (silk, cotton, ramie, hemp) after dyeing with 5 colors (undyed, red, yellow, blue, black). The specimens were exposed to 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, 100, and 1000 ppm $NO_2$ gas in the test chamber at $20^{\circ}C$, 50% RH for 1 day. Optical, chemical, and physical evaluation was carried out after the exposure. In the case of Korean traditional textile, color difference increased at 1 ppm/day, $NO_3{^-}$ concentration, carbonyl and C-$NO_2$ functional group increased while pH decreased at 10 ppm/day and tensile strength weakened at 100 ppm/day. when it comes to undyed textile, alteration of color difference on silk and hemp cloth, $NO_3{^-}$ concentration and tensile strength on hemp cloth was remarkable. In addition, color difference on blue and yellow textile, $NO_3{^-}$ concentration increase of yellow textile and tensile strength decrease of hemp cloth & ramie cloth were significant. The results suggest that critical $NO_2$ concentration of optical, chemical, and physical damage on Korean traditional textiles are 1ppm/day, 10 ppm/day, 100 ppm/day respectively.

For the case of the facilities using utilities such as cooling water and steam, risk of the facilities is zero because the consequence of failure (COF) through equipment damage area is zero. Therefore, to improve the estimation method of the risk by COF through equipment damage area in the risk-based inspection (RBI), this study developed the procedures of RBI, in which the risk was estimated by COF through financial loss. And, the RBI program (KS-RBI Ver 3.1) was developed to establish inspection interval based on the risk of the facilities estimated by COF through equipment damage area and financial loss, simultaneously, and the developed RBI program was applied to a petrochemical process. As a result, risks of the facilities estimated by COF through financial loss were similar to risks by COF through the equipment damage area. But, for the case of the facilities using utilities or expensive facilities, the estimation method of the risk by COF through financial loss was more accurate than through equipment damage area.

In case of leather objects, degradation usually occurs by a combination of factors such as temperature and relative humidity, light and insect and fungi. Because chemical composition differs on the types of leather materials, leather objects affect differently even in the same environment. According to UV degradation, the overall color and gloss difference appeared severe in turn of the cowskin, sheepskin and pigskin specimens. In addition, despite short-term period of RH degradation, leather materials showed stable result on high RH circumstances. Nevertheless, if the leather sustained for a long time on the high RH, the environment can be the cause of mold or microorganisms. This study is to understand the leather objects and the future conservation and then to establish the conservational management of leather object for the future.

반도체 및 디스플레이의 진공부품은 알루미늄 모제에 전해연마법(electrolytic polishing), 양극산화피막법(anodizing), 플라즈마 용사법(plasma spray) 등을 사용하여 $Al_2O_3$ 피막을 성장시켜 사용되고 있다. 반도체 제조공정 중 30~40% 이상의 비중을 차지하는 식각(etching) 및 증착(deposition) 공정의 대부분 은 플라즈마에 의해 화학적, 물리적 침식이 발생하여 피막에 손상을 일으켜 피막이 깨지거나 박리되면서 다량의 particle을 생성함으로써 생산수율에도 문제를 야기 시킨다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 진공부품의 하나인 etcher용 상부전극을 양극산화피막법(Anodizing)으로 $Al_2O_3$ 피막을 성장시킨 샘플을 제작하여 플라즈마 처리에 따른 내전압, 식각율, 표면 미세구조의 변화를 관찰하였고 이를 종합적으로 고려하여 etcher용 상부전극의 Life Time 평가 방법을 연구하였다. 이러한 실험을 통해 플라즈마 처리 후 피막에 크랙이 발생되는 것을 확인할 수 있었고 피막의 손상으로 전기적 특성이 감소되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 플라즈마 처리 중 ISPM 장비를 이용하여 플라즈마 공정에서 발생하는 오염입자를 실시간으로 측정할 수 있는 방법을 연구하였다. 이러한 결과를 이용하여 진공공정에서 사용되는 코팅부품이 플라즈마에 의한 손상정도를 정량화 하고 etcher용 상부전극의 Life Time 평가 방법을 개발하여 부품 양산업체의 진공장비용 코팅부품의 개발 신뢰성 향상이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

반도체 산업기술이 발달함에 따라 고청정 공정 환경이 요구되고 있으며, 반도체 공정용 장비에 이용되는 부품 중 양극산화피막법(Anodizing)으로 피막을 성장시킨 anodic aluminum oxide (AAO)부품은 플라즈마에 의해 화학적, 물리적 침식이 발생하여 코팅막과 모재에 손상을 일으키며 코팅막이 깨지거나 박리되면서 다량의 Particle이 생성됨으로써 공정상의 여러 가지 문제를 야기 시킨다고 알려져 있다. 하지만 코팅막을 평가하는 방법은 거의 전무하며 기본물성 측정방법인 피막두께, 내전압, 임피던스, 내식성 측정방법을 통하여 여러 기본물성측정방법으로 부품의 평가기술을 연구하였다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 진공 부품의 하나인 anodic aluminum oxide (AAO)부품샘플을 누설전류 및 내전압 측정하여 샘플의 전기적 특성을 측정하였고, 표면 미세구조의 변화를 관찰하였다. 부식실험으로는 HCl 가스를 발생시켜 부식정도를 알아봤으며, 부식처리와 플라즈마 처리 모두 코팅 막의 손상과 전기적 특성의 감소를 보였다. 진공장비 전극 부품평가의 유익한 평가 항목으로서 플라즈마 데미지를 주는 도중에 실시간으로 부품평가에 따른 Particle을 측정함으로써 ISPM 장비를 이용하여 진공 장비용 코팅부품이 플라즈마공정에서 발생하는 오염입자를 측정할 수 있는 방법을 연구하였다. 이러한 결과를 이용하여 진공공정에서 사용되는 코팅부품이 플라즈마에 의한 손상정도를 정량화 하고 평가방법을 개발하여 진공장비용 공정 중 실시간으로 부품의 성능평가가 가능하고 코팅부품 신뢰성 향상이 가능할 것으로 본다.
