Porphyrins generally bind DNA in two different ways with respect to the mixing ratio; monomeric binding at a low mixing ratio and outside stacking at a high mixing ratio. In the present study, CTDNA binding property of a planar structured porphyrin, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(N-methyl-4-pyridin-4-yl-phenyl)porphyrin (referred to as B-TMPyP) was investigated using absorption, CD, LD, and $LD^r$ spectroscopies. B-TMPyP produced a bisignate CD band, even at the lowest mixing ratio, indicating that B-TMPyP may not have a monomeric binding mode. From the observations of the spectral changes to the absorption, CD, and LD spectra in mixing ratio dependent titrations, B-TMPyP seems to have a quite different stacking type compared to that for the binding of $H_2$TMPyP. Moreover, B-TMPyP produced a CD band of opposite shape in the Soret band region. A qualitative explanation for the observed optical differences is also given.

본 연구에서는 정유회사 등에서 폐기되는 부생유(pyolyzed fuel oil)를 황산화 반응하여 petroleum sulfonate(PS)를 합성하였다. 합성된 PS는 계면활성 성질을 나타내었으며 이는 황산화율과 관계가 있었다. 또한 반응에 있어서 황산화율은 온도 및 시간에 따라 속도에 차이는 있었으나 대부분의 경우 40~50% 정도에서 황산화율이 거의 포화에 이르렀다. 황산화율이 증가함에 따라서 친수성이 증가하여 용액의 표면장력이 낮아졌으나 과도한 황산화율에서는 친수성이 너무 강하여 표면장력 값이 오히려 증가하였다. 황산화율에 따라서 적정한 친수-친유 비율에서는 낮은 표면장력과 시멘트에 대하여 우수한 젖음성을 나타내었다. 황산화율에 따라서 PS는 시멘트 표면에 대한 흡착량에 차이를 보였으며 흡착량이 클수록 시멘트에 대한 젖음성이 증가하여 시멘트 입자의 제타전위를 높였으며 보다 우수한 시멘트 몰타르 유동성을 나타내었다.

무유화제중합으로 제조된 폴리 (메틸 메타크릴레이트)(PMMA) 시드 고분자 미립자에 가교단량체인 ethylene glycol dimethacrylate(EGDMA), 1,6-hexanedioldiacrylate(HDDA) 또는 그 혼합액을 흡수시키고, 이를 중합하여 단분산 가교고분자 미립자를 제조할 시 1) 흡수된 가교단량체와 시드 고분자 미립자의 중량비 (흡수율) 변화, 2) 가교단량체 혼합액에서의 EGDMA의 함량비 변화 및 3) 중합개시제의 사용량 변화 등에 따라 제조된 단분산 가교고분자 미립자 및 그의 무전해 니켈도금체의 기계적 물성인 탄성복원율, 압축탄성률, 파괴강도 및 파괴변형률의 변화를 micro compression test(MCT)를 사용하여 측정하였다. 이번 연구를 통해 흡수율의 증가는 파괴강도에만 큰 영향을 미쳤으나, EGDMA의 증가, 중합개시제의 증량 및 무전해 니켈도금 실시 등은 압축탄성률 및 파괴 강도에 동시에 큰 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다.

Sisal fiber, an agricultural resource abundantly available in china, has been used as raw material to prepare activated carbon with high surface area and huge pore volume by chemical activation with zinc chloride. The orthogonal test was designed to investigate the influence of zinc chloride concentration, impregnation ratio, activation temperature and activation time on preparation of activated carbon. Scanning electron micrograph, Thermo-gravimetric, $N_2$-adsorption isotherm, mathematical models such as t-plot, H-K equation, D-R equation and BJH methods were used to characterize the properties of the prepared carbons and the activation mechanism was discussed. The results showed that $ZnCl_2$ changed the pyrolysis process of sisal fiber. Characteristics of activated carbon are: BET surface area was $1628m^2/g$, total pore volume was $1.316m^3/g$ and ratio of mesopore volume to total pore volume up to 94.3%. These results suggest that sisal fiber is an attractive source to prepare mesoporous high-capacity activated carbon by chemical activation with zinc chloride.

Absolute isotope ratio is a critical constituent in determination of atomic weight. To measure the absolute isotope ratio using a mass spectrometer, mass discrimination factor, $f_{MD}$, is needed to convert measured isotope ratio to real isotope ratio of gas molecules. If the $f_{MD}$ could be predicted, absolute isotope ratio of a chemical species would be measureable in absence of its enriched isotope pure materials or isotope references. This work employed gravimetrically prepared isotope mixtures of argon (Ar) to obtain $f_{MD}$ at m/z of 40 in the magnetic sector type gas mass spectrometer (gas/MS). Besides, we compare the nitrogen isotope ratio of nitrogen trifluoride ($NF_3$) with that of nitrogen molecule ($N_2$) decomposed from the same $NF_3$ thermally in order to identify the difference of $f_{MD}$ values in extensive m/z region from 28 to 71. Our result shows that $f_{MD}$ at m/z 40 was $-0.044%{\pm}0.017%$ (k = 1) from measurement of Ar artificial isotope mixtures. The $f_{MD}$ difference in the range of m/z from 28 to 71 is observed $-0.12%{\pm}0.14%$ from $NF_3$ and $N_2$. From combination of this work and reported $f_{MD}$ values by another team, IRMM, if $f_{MD}$ of $-0.16%{\pm}0.14%$ is applied to isotope ratio measurement from $N_2$ to $SF_6$, we can determine absolute isotope ratio within relative uncertainty of 0.2 %.

The addition of organic ligand (${\beta}$-diketone or heterocyclic compound) to the europium (III)-containing ionic liquid resulted in bright luminescent soft materials with the molar ratio of europium/ionic liquid (IL)/ligand being 1:3:1 that exhibit bright red light under UV lamp. The luminescent properties such as emission features and lifetime of $^5D_0$ $Eu^{3+}$ excited level are dependent on the organic ligands. The materials were characterized by FT-IR and luminescence spectroscopy. The data shows that at least parts of the ILs (carboxylic acid) are replaced with ${\beta}$-diketone ligand rather than the formation of europium complex with the molar ratio of $Eu^{3+}$:IL: ligand being 1:3:1, while no ILs could be replaced by the heterocyclic ligand such as Bpy and Phen.

Thermoplastic polyurethane(PU)-based blend membranes were prepared by the solvent evaporation process. The gas sorption, diffusion, and permeation properties of PU-based blend membranes have been studied. The morphology of PU-based blend membranes was investigated by SEM. The result showed that phase separation occurred with increasing blend ratio. $CO_2$ permeation behaviors of blend membranes were affect by blend composition. Thermoplastic polyurethane(PU)-based membranes showed high $CO_2$ permeation and $CO_2$/$N_2$ selectivity of the blend membrane was improved with increasing the blend ratio.

Polystyrene nanocapsules containing octadecane as a core material were prepared by miniemulsion polymerization. The morphology and size of the nanocapsules were measured with varying the surfactant concentration, content of initiator, core/shell ratio and content of comonomer. The morphologies of the prepared nanoparticles were examined by a scanning electron microscope, a transmission electron microscope and the core material was confirmed by a differential scanning calorimeter. The particles below 70 nm in diameter were formed at a high surfactant concentration. The size of the nanoparticles was not significantly affected by the initiator content. With increasing the core/shell ratio and polar comonomer content, the particle size and its distribution were increased.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of total polymer concentration on the chemical structure, morphology of pores, porosity, swelling ratio, degradation of gelatin-poly (vinyl alcohol) (Gel-PVA) cryogel scaffolds. Porous cryogels were prepared with cryogelation technique by using glutaraldehyde as a crosslinker. Functional group composition of cryogels after crosslinking was investigated by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR). The morphology of cryogels was characterized via scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and porosity analysis. All of the cryogels had a porous structure with an average pore size between $45.58{\pm}14.28$ and $50.14{\pm}4.26{\mu}m$. The cryogels were biodegradable and started to degrade in 14 days. As the polymer concentration increased the swelling ratio, the porosity and the degradation rate decreased. Spongy and mechanically stable Gel-PVA cryogels, with tunable properties, can be potential candidates as scaffolds for tissue engineering applications.

고밀도 C4F8 플라즈마에서 증착된 불화탄소막의 광학적 및 전기적 특성을 소스파워와 압력을 변화하며 분석하였다. 고밀도 C4F8 플라즈마에서 증착된 불화탄소막의 F/C 비율은 2단계 증착 메커니즘의 작용으로 소스파워가 증가할수록 증가하였고 압력이 증가할수록 감소하였다. 고밀도 C4F8 플라즈마에서 증착된 불화탄소막의 F/C 비율 변화는 불화탄소막의 광학적 및 전기적 특성 변화에 직접적으로 영향을 끼쳤다. 즉, 불화탄소막의 굴절률은 F/C 비율 변화 양상과는 달리 소스파워가 증가할수록 감소하였고 압력이 증가할수록 증가하였는데 이는 F/C 비율이 증가할수록 전자분극작용이 억제되고 불화탄소막의 망상조직이 약화되어 굴절률이 감소하기 때문이었다. 불화탄소막의 비저항은 F/C 비율 변화와 같이 소스파워가 증가할수록 증가하였고 압력이 증가할수록 감소하였는데 이는 F/C 비율이 증가할수록 주변 전자들을 반발하려는 경향이 강해져서 비저항이 증가하기 때문이었다. 고밀도 C4F8 플라즈마에서 증착된 불화탄소막의 F/C 비율 조절로 불화탄소막의 광학적 및 전기적 특성을 직접적으로 변화할 수 있으므로 불화탄소막이 반도체소자제조공정에서 저 유전상수 물질 대체용으로 가능할 수 있음이 예상된다.
