  • Surface Engineering is a field closely related to Tribology. Surfaces are engineered to reduce adhesion, friction and wear between moving components in engineering applications. On the contrary, it is also necessary to have high adhesion between surfaces so as to hold/stick surfaces together. In this context, surface engineering plays an important role. In recent times, scientists are drawing inspiration from nature to create effective artificial adhesive surfaces. This article provides some examples of novel surface engineering approaches conducted by various research groups worldwide that have significantly contributed in the creation of bio-inspired artificial adhesive surfaces.

  • In this study, biocomposite filaments with agricultural by-products can be used in extrusion-based 3D (Three-dimensional) printing. Extrusion-based 3D printing stands as a promising technique owing to its versatility. We hypothesized that bio-filament composite consisted of something derived from agricultural by-products could be used as 3D printing materials that could overcome the drawbacks of PCL (poly-caprolactone). Bio-filament mixed with PCL and agricultural by-products was defined as r-PCL in this study. In order to find it out the optimal mixing ratio of filaments, we had investigated PCL, r-PCL 10%, r-PCL 20%, r-PCL 50% separately. The morphological and chemical characteristics of the filaments were analyzed by FE-SEM (Field emission scanning electron microscope) and EDX (Energy-dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy), and the mechanical properties were evaluated by stress-strain curve, water contact angle, and cytotoxicity analysis. Results of this study have been shown as a promising way to produce eco-friendly bio-filaments composite for FDM (Fused deposition modeling) method based 3D printing technology. Thus, we could establish biomimetic scaffolds based on bio-printer filaments mixed with agricultural by-product.

  • Since bio-diesel oil has a merit that it satisfies both demand of substitution for fossil fuel and reduction in carbon dioxide emission, it is widely used in diesel engines by blending in gas oil in small quantity. It is needed to reduce in NOx emission in some way or others if blending ratio of bio-diesel oil is going to increase, because it is demerit that bio-diesel oil emits more NOx emission than gas oil. In this study, it was accomplished to optimize 3 factors what effect on NOx emission as blending ratio of bio-diesel oil, injection timing and common rail pressure with an introduction of a design of experiments, in order to minimize a number of tests. It was cleared that to introduce the design of experiments was very available in NOx optimization.

  • 국내에서 목질계 바이오매스는 유망한 재생가능한 자원이다. Fast pyrolysis을 통한 radiata pine 톱밥의 bio-oil의 전환은 벤치스케일의 유동층 반응기을 이용하였다. 이 실험에서 얻어진 bio-oil은 주로 산, 페놀, 알킬페놀 등을 포함하고 있었고. 세포생존율실험, comet assay, 물벼룩 급성유영저해실험을 이용하여 각각 세포독성, 유전독성 및 생태독성을 평가하였다. Bio-oil의 액상부분은 타르 부분보다 세포독성과 유전독성이 더 높게 나타났고, 반면 타르부분은 액상부분에 비해 생태독성이 높게 나타났다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과를 통해 pyrolysis 생성물에 대한 다양한 독성영향을 확인할 수 있었으나, 보다 다양한 독성 지표의 적용이 필요할 것으로 보인다.

  • The reformed bio-diesel fuel irradiated by the ultrasonic wave is applied to the diesel engine of common rail in common use recently. This study has the object to examine the properties of engine performance and discharged materials. The bio-diesel fuel is mixed and used with the diesel fuel in common use at the ratio of $20\%\;or\; 100\%$. The ultrasonic energy is irradiated to the individually mixed fuel in order to reform the fuel. This fuel is applied to the engine in this experiment. And It is compared and analyzed from the experimental results with two cases irradiating the ultrasonic wave and no irradiating.

  • 바이오에너지는 화석연료의 소비를 감소시키는 기회를 제공한다. 태양, 바람, 수력발전 및 지열, 그리고 바이오매스 자원으로부터 생성된 에너지는 재생이 가능하다. 대부분의 바이오에너지들은 태양으로부터 직 간접적으로 생산되기 때문에 화석연료와 달리 신재생에너지의 충분한 공급이 가능하다. 또한 바이오에너지의 이용은 환경적인 측면 뿐 아니라 정치, 경제적으로 이익을 제공한다. 바이오에너지는 이산화탄소의 순증가가 없고 무공해의 에너지 형태를 제공하는 해양 자원으로부터 생산 될 수 있다. 본 총설에서는 지구의 약 75%가 바다로 이루어져 있음을 고려해 볼 때 바이오에너지 생산을 위한 해양 바이오매스의 잠재력에 대해 검토한다.

  • Bio-binder is well known as a promising alternative binder for SB latex because it is eco-friendly and inexpensive, compared to synthetic latex. SB latex in top coating color was substituted with starch-based bio-binder to investigate its effects on the coating color and its coated paper properties. Bio-binder contributed to the increase of coating color viscosity, and the improvement of water retention. Most optical properties except opacity were deteriorated by the increase of bio-binder dosage. It was also found that the increase of bio-binder substitution in top coating color brought about the increase of roughness, and decrease of coated paper gloss, print gloss, dry and wet pick strength. However the stiffness and the ink set-off of the bio-binder coated paper were improved. Overall, mostly adverse effects of bio-binder on the properties of coating color and its paper were observed. Therefore, it is not recommended to use bio-binder as top coating color.
