In this study, propylene/propane separation behavior of Na-type faujasite zeolite membranes is predicted by observing gravimetric adsorptions of propylene and propane on zeolite 13X. The gravimetric adsorptions were measured by using a magnetic suspension balance (MSB) at temperatures of 323, 343, 363 K and a pressure range of 0.02-1 bar. The pressure was increased at 0.1 bar intervals. As adsorption temperature increased, adsorptions of propylene and propane decreased and propylene/propane adsorption selectivity increased. Also, the diffusion coefficients of propylene and propane were increased as the adsorption temperature increased, following the Arrhenius equation. The maximum propylene/propane diffusion selectivity was 0.9753 at 323 K. The perm-selectivity was calculated from the adsorption data of zeolite 13X and compared with the perm-selectivity measured in the single gas permeation experiment for the Na-type faujasite zeolite membrane. The maximum values for the calculated and measured perm-selectivities were observed at a temperature of 323 K. It could be concluded that the prediction of propylene/propane separation of surface diffusion-based membrane by using gravimetric adsorption data is reasonable. Therefore, it is expected that this prediction method can be applied to the screening of adsorption-based microporous membrane for propylene/propane separation.

Natural white clay was treated with 6 M of H₂SO₄ and heated at 80℃ for 6 h under mechanical stirring and the resulting acid active clay was used as an adsorbent for the removal of Cs⁺ in water. The physicochemical changes of natural white clay and acid active clay were observed by X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry (XRF), BET Surface Area Analyser and Energy Dispersive X-line Spectrometer (EDX). While activating natural white clay with acid, the part of Al₂O₃, CaO, MgO, SO₃ and Fe₂O₃ was dissolved firstly from the crystal lattice, which bring about the increase in the specific surface area and the pore volume as well as active sites. The specific surface area and the pore volume of acid active clay were roughly twice as high compared with natural white clay. The adsorption of Cs⁺ on acid active clay was increased rapidly within 1 min and reached equilibrium at 60 min. At 25 mg L^- of Cs⁺ concentration, 96.88% of adsorption capacity was accomplished by acid active clay. The adsorption data of Cs⁺ were fitted to the adsorption isotherm and kinetic models. It was found that Langmuir isotherm was described well to the adsorption behavior of Cs⁺ on acid active clay rather than Freundlich isotherm. For adsorption Cs⁺ on acid active clay, the Langmuir isotherm coefficients, Q, was found to be 10.52 mg g^-1. In acid active clay/water system, the pseudo-second-order kinetic model was more suitable for adsorption of Cs⁺ than the pseudo-first-order kinetic model owing to the higher correlation coefficient R² and the more proximity value of the experimental value q_e,exp and the calculated value q_e,cal. The overall results of study showed that acid active clay could be used as an efficient adsorbent for the removal of Cs⁺ from water.

The material properties of waste oyster shell, which is largely generated from the treatment of marine products, have been investigated for its possible utilization as an adsorbent for fluoride ion-containing wastewater. The major composition of waste oyster shell was analyzed to be $CaCO_3$ and loss of 46% in weight reduction occurred during its thermal treatment by the emission of moisture and $CO_2$. The surface structure of oyster shell was decomposed by the heating and its surface potential was negatively increased with pH. As the pH of wastewater was increased, the adsorbed amount of fluoride ion onto oyster shell was decreased and the wastewater was found to be neutralized during adsorption process by ${CO_2}^{3-}$ which generated from the partial dissolution of oyster shell

Adsorption onto the surfaces of solid particles is a well known phenomenon that causes the retardation effect of heavy metals in soils. For adequate remediation of soil and groundwater contamination, it is important to investigate the mobility of heavy metals that largely depends on pH conditions in the soil water since adsorption of heavy metals is pH-dependent. In this study, we investigated the transport of Zn ion under various pH conditions in a sandy soil by conducting batch and column tests. The batch test was performed using the standard procedure of equilibrating fine fractions collected from the soil with eleven different initial $ZnCl_2$ concentrations, and analysis of Zn ion in the equilibrated solutions using ICP-AES. The column test consisted of monitoring the concentrations of soil solutions exiting the soil column with time known as a breakthrough curve (BTC). We injected respectively $ZnCl_2$ and KCl solutions with the concentration of 10 g/L as a tracer in a square pulse type under three different pH conditions (7.7, 5.8, 4.1) and monitored the flux concentration at the exit boundary using an EC meter and ICP-AES. The resident concentration was also monitored at the 10cm-depth by Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR). The results of batch test showed that ion exchange process between Zn and other cations (Ca, Mg) was predominant. The retardation coefficients obtained from adsorption isotherms (Linear, Freundlich, Langmuir) resulted in the various values ranging from 1.2 to 614.1. No retardation effect but ion exchange was found for the BTCs under all pH conditions. This can be explained by the absence of other cations to desorb Zn ion from soil exchange sites under the conditions of ETC experiment imposing blank water as leachate in steady-state flow. As pH decreased, the peak concentration of Zn increased due to the competition of Zn with hydrogen ions ($H^+$) and the concentrations of other cations decreased. The peak concentration of Zn was increased by 12.7 times as pH decreased from 7.7 to 4.1.

Cotton fabric was treated with Cationon UK(tertiary ammonium salt) to improve the dyeability to black tea colorants. In order to investigate the efficacy of Cationon UK for improving dyeing properties of cotton fabric, the effect of Cationon UK treatment conditions and dyeing conditions on dye uptake of the cotton fabrics treated with Cationon UK were examined and the colorfastness to washing, perspiration, rubbing and light was also evaluated for practical uses. Cationized cotton treated with Cationon UK showed high dye uptake at lower dyeing concentration and shorter dyeing time, compared with untreated. Dyeing temperature did not affect significantly dye uptake and the maximum dye uptake was obtained at pH 5. Most colorfastness was relatively good, showing 4/5∼5 rating.

무정형 SiC 박막을 수평형 CVD반응기로부터 SiH$_{4}$ 및 H$_{2}$를 반응기체로 하여 실리콘 웨이퍼위에 증착시켜 제조하였다. 박막 성장 속도는 상압에서 650.deg.C와 850.deg.C범위에서 측정되었다. 반응기체의 유량은 1000sccm으로 고정하였으며 SiH$_{4}$와 CH$_{4}$의 유량을 변화시켰다. 증착 반응속도식으로 표면 반응이 율속단계인 Eley-Rideal 모델과 SiH$_{4}$와 CH$_{4}$의 종도에 m차로 비례하는 두가지 속도식을 가정하였다. 증착시간에 따른 SiC 박막두께의 측정으로부터 얻은 증착 반응 속도로부터 회귀 분석법에 의하여 두가지 반응속도식의 반응속도 상수를 구하였다. 얻어진 반응속도식에 의해서 계산된 값과 실험치를 비교한 결과 0.15차의 반응속도식이 Eley-Rideal반응기구보다 약산 더 잘 맞음을 알 수 있으나 두 모델 다 약간씩 실험결과와 차이가 나고 있다. 이것은 본 실험의 증착 조건의 율속단계가 확산 단계와 표면 반응 단계의 전이영역 즉 본 실험의 증착조건에서 확산속도와 표면 반응속도가 비슷하기 때문으로 생각된다. 또한 Eley-Rideal 반응기구에서 부터 얻어진 SiH$_{4}$ 및 CH$_{4}$의 흡착평형상수 $K_{s}$ 와 $K_{c}$ 값을 비교하면 1000K이하에서는 $K_{s}$ 가 $K_{c}$ 보다 큰 값을 가지는데 이것은 Gibbs 자유에너지 최소화 방법에서 구한 결과와 일치하였다.

A series of the studies on the applied physical properties of domestic species have been conducted last three years. Liriodendron tulipifera, Betula costata, Paulownia coreana were examined on sorption property, thermal property, electric property, acoustic property. Because the same apparatus and experimental procedures were used for all species, their results can be easily comparable. The experiments for sorption property were conducted with 80 mesh wood powder and resulted in their EMC's and sorption isotherms. The thermal conductivity and diffusivity, and electric resistance and volumetric electric resistivity were measured with a thermal-wire device and a high electric resistance meter. The differences of the thermal and electric properties between quarter-and flat-sawn specimens were observed, which was partially attributed to their anatomical differences. An acoustic measurement system was used to evaluate dynamic MOE and internal friction. This paper provides the useful fundamental data for designing a wood structure, correcting a portable resistance-type moisture meter, and acoustic properties of wood.

In this study, basic physical properties were measured for ASCO EQ85 cationic surfactant of triethanolamine-ester quaternary ammonium salt and effect of pH on softening performance on fabrics was investigated using zeta potential measurement and adsorption experiment by quartz crystal microbalance. The CMC of the surfactant was near $3{\times}10^{-3}mol/L$ and the surface tension at CMC was about 40 mN/m. The interfacial tension measurement between 1 wt% aqueous solution and n-dodecane measured by spinning drop tensiometer showed that interfacial tension slightly increased with an increase in pH but the equilibration time was not affected by pH. The surfactant adsorption was found to increase with an increase in surfactant concentration and was also affected by pH of surfactant solution. The friction factor for fabrics treated with ASCO EQ85 surfactant was shown to increase with pH and better softening effect was found under acidic conditions. Half-life for foams generated with ASCO EQ85 surfactant solution increased with pH, which indicated an increase in foam stability with pH.

Soil samples were collected from the paddy soils growing two crops of rice and garlic in Kyung-pook province. To obtain the basic information on the application of S-fertilizer in the garlic field, the adsorption and release amount of $SO_4{^{-2}}$ in subsoil samples were determined. The ranges of $SO_4{^{-2}}$ contents in surface and sub-soil were 59-117 and 34-102 ppm, respectively. The amount of $SO_4{^{-2}}$ adsorbed by soil samples was found to be more at lower pH and higher concentration of $SO_4{^{-2}}$. The $SO_4{^{-2}}$ adsorption constants in Freundlich equation tended to be higher at lower pH. It is apparent that most of $SO_4{^{-2}}$ was released in the first extraction. However, the lower the pH of extracted solution, the more the $SO_4{^{-2}}$ contents was released by distilled water.
