Two pitches with different average molecular structures were electrospun and compared in terms of the properties of their fibers after oxidative stabilization, carbonization, and activation. The precursor with a higher molecular weight and greater content of aliphatic groups (Pitch A) resulted in better solubility and spinnability compared to that with a lower molecular weight and lower aliphatic group content (Pitch B). The electrical conductivity of the carbon fiber web from Pitch A of 67 S/cm was higher than that from Pitch B of 52 S/cm. The carbon fiber web based on Pitch A was activated more readily with lower activation energy, resulting in a higher specific surface area compared to the carbon fiber based on Pitch B (Pitch A, 2053 $m^2/g$; Pitch B, 1374 $m^2/g$).

Boron has been considered to play a nutritionally important role in humans and animals, but its biochemical functions are not clearly understood. Though there are signs that boron affects the mineral and hormone metabolisms, there is no comprehensive epidemiological evidence establishing a relationship between a boron intake and osteoporosis due to the excretion of calcium in the bones. In this study, we investigated the influence of boron intake on the calcium excretion of old female mice in the menopause. The concentrations of calcium in backbone, thigh bone, blood, kidney, liver, and spleen were investigated by using instrumental neutron activation analysis.

Flip-flop rate constants were measured by dithionite assay of NBD-PE fluorescence in DMPC/POPC vesicles made of various DMPC/POPC ratios. The activation energy, enthalpy, entropy, and free energy were determined based on the transition state theory. We found that the activation energy, enthalpy, and entropy increased as the amount of POPC increased, but the activation free energy was almost constant. These experimental results and other similar studies allow us to propose that the POPC molecules included in DMPC vesicles affect the flip-flop motion of NBD-PE in DMPC/POPC vesicles via increasing the packing order of the ground state of the bilayer of the vesicles. The increase in the packing order in the ground state seems to be a result of the effect of the overall molecular shape of POPC with a monounsaturated tail group, rather than the effect of the longer tail group.

It is necessary to calculate Apparent Activation Energy(Ea) in order to apply the equivalent age formula to predict compressive strength using the maturity method. For carbon reduction, it is necessary to consider the change of Ea by condition of GGBFS concrete, which is widely used today. In this study, as a basic study for the design of the compressive strength model of GGBFS concrete, the apparent activation energy of the GGBFS mixed paste was calculated through a calorimeter. The experiment was carried out at a hydration temperature of 10 to 30℃ with a paste test specimen having a GGBFS content of 0 to 80%. As a result, the GGBFS replacement rate of the paste increased, and Ea tended to increase as the temperature decreased.

The compressive strength of concrete is greatly affected by the temperature inside the concrete at the initial age immediately after pouring. The apparent activation energy of cement and the setting time of concrete are major factors influencing the development of compressive strength of concrete. This study measured the apparent activation energy and setting time according to the change in W/B for each mixing rate of Ground Granulated Blast-Furnace Slag (GGBFS). And after calculating the compressive strength prediction model, the accuracy of the prediction model was evaluated by comparing the predicted compressive strength and the compressive strength.

In this paper, nanocrystallization of CuNiTiZr bulk metallic glass (BMG) subjecting to a kinetic spraying, dependent on impact velocity, was investigated by numerical and experimental approaches. The crystallization fraction and nucleation activation energy of initial feedstock and as-deposited coating were estimated by DSC and Kissinger method, respectively. The results of numerical modeling and experiment showed that the crystalline fraction and nucleation activation energy in BMG coatings were depended on kinetic energy of incident particle. Upon impact, the conversion of particle kinetic energy leads to not only decreasing free energy barrier but also increasing the driving force for an amorphous to crystalline phase transformation. The nanocrystallization of BMGs is associated with the strain energy delivered by a plastic deformation with a high strain rate.

반응성 첨가제로 HQ와 PGE를 합성시킨 HQ-PGE를 사용하여, DGEBA/MDA계의 경화반응이 일어날 때의 속도론을 DSC와 FT-IR을 이용하여 조사하였다. 그리고, Kissinger equation과 Arrhenius equation을 이용하여 활성화 에너지와 pre-exponential factor 값을 구하였다. 계의 활성화 에너지는 HQ-PGE가 첨가되었을 때 감소하였다. 합성 HQ-PGE가 5 phr 첨가되었을 때, DGEBA/MDA계의 활성화 에너지는 FT-IR로 측정하였을 때 7.8 kcal/mol, DSC로 측정하였을 때에 11.3 kcal/mol을 나타내었다. 이 값은 HQ-PGE가 첨가되지 않은 경우보다 각각 30%, 9% 감소된 값이었다. 이 결과들을 통해서 반응성 첨가제로 사용된 HQ-PGE는 본 계에서 촉매의 역할을 함을 알 수 있었다.

In order to give a silk-like touch to PET fabrics, the PET fabrics were treated with NaOH alkaline solution in various conditions. In alkaline treatment, the liquor flow type pilot weight reduction apparatus with magnetostrictive ultrasonic transducer was used for the study. The weight loss of PET fabrics hydrolyzed in 4% and 6% NaOH solution, at $95^\circ{C}$ and $99^\circ{C}$ for 60min. with ultrasonic application showed 3.7~4.6% higher than that of treated fabric without ultrasonic application. From the difference of specific weight loss, the treatment condition of the maximum of hydrolyzation effect appeared at $95^\circ{C}$ in $4^\circ{C}$ and at $90^\circ{C}$ in 6% NaOH solution, respectively. During the alkali hydrolysis of PET fabrics, the decomposition rate constant(k) increased exponentially with the treatment temperature and were not related with ultrasonic cavitation. The activation energy$(E_a)$ in decomposition of PET fabrics were 21.06kcal/mol with ultrasonic application and 21.10kcal/mol without ultrasonic application. The ultrasonic application gave a little higher value of the activation entropy$(\Delta{S}^\neq)$ and a little lower value of Gibbs free energy$(\Delta{S}^\neq)$ compared with not used ultrasonic apparatus.

저밀도 폴리에틸렌 (LDPE)과 $25\%{\~}48\%$의 함염소 폴리에틸렌(CPE)에 대한 열분해상태를 20ml/min의 질소기류와 $4^{\circ}C{\~}20^{\circ}C$/min의 여러 가지 가열율에서 열중량분석으로 검토하였다. 반응의 열분해 활성화에너지값을 얻기 위하여 수학적인 방법으로는 미분법(Friedman)과 적분법(Ozawa)법이 사용되었다. 위의 방법으로 평가된 활성화에너지는 각각이 잘 일치하였고, 최고평균 활성화에너지는 71.72kcal/mol로 계산되었다. LDPE와 CPE의 열분해는 주쇄분해반응이고 실제 열분해곡선은 이론식과 잘 일치하는 것으로 사료된다.

In order to provide fundamental information for developing reaction model in the practical blended coal power plants, effects of particle size and blending ratio on combustion characteristics and thermal reaction in co-firing with bituminous and sub-bituminous coals were experimentally investigated using a TGA and a laboratory-scale burner. Characteristic parameters including ignition, burnout temperature and activation energy were determined from TG and DTG combustion profiles. Distributions of flame length and mean particle temperature were investigated from the visualization of flames in slit-burner system. As coal particle size decreased and volatile matter content increased, characteristic temperatures and activation energy decreased. The ignition/burnout characteristics and activation energy are linearly influenced by a variation in particle size and blending ratio. These results indicated that the control of the coal blending ratio can improve the combustion efficiency for sub-bituminous coals and the ignition characteristics for bituminous coals.
