Recent studies have been reported the presence of Endocrine Disrupting Compounds, Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products (EDC/PPCPs) in surface and wastewater, which could potentially affect to the complicate behavior in coupled presence of nano-colloid particles and surfactants (adsorption, dispersion, and partitioning). In this study, the adsorption of EDC/PPCPs by Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes (SWNTs) as a representative of nano-particles in cationic surfactant solutions were investigated. Hydrophobic interactions (${\pi}-{\pi}$ Electron Donor-Acceptor) have been reported as a potential adsorption mechanisms for EDC/PPCPs onto SWNTs. Generally, the adsorptive capacity of the relatively hydrophobic EDC/PPCPs onto SWNTs decreased in the presence of cationic surfactant (Cetyltrimethyl Ammonium Bromide, CTAB). This study revealed that the competitive adsorption occurred between CTAB cations and EDC/PPCPs by occupying the available SWNT surface (CTAB adsorption onto SWNTs shows five-regime and maximum adsorption capacity of 370.4 mg/g by applying the BET isotherm). The adsorption capacity of $17{\alpha}$-ethinyl estradiol (EE2) on SWNT showed the decrease of 48% in the presence of CTAB. However, the adsorbed naproxen (NAP) surely increased by forming hemimicelles and resulted in a favorable media formation for NAP partition to increase SWNTs adsorption capacity. The adsorbed NAP increased from 24 to 82.9 mg/g after the interaction of CTAB with NAP. The competitive adsorption for EDC/PPCPs onto SWNTs is likely to be a key factor in the presence of cationic surfactant, however, NAP adsorption showed a slight competition through $CH_3-CH_3$ interaction by forming hemimicelles on SWNT surface.

낮은 농도와 높은 농도의 염 용액에서 Poly(styrene sulfonic acid)(PSSA) 겔의 팽윤도에 대한 이온 특성화 효과를 ${SO_3}^-$와 페닐 고리의 수소결합을 통하여 조사하였다. 낮은 농도에서 PSSA 수화 겔의 수축 정도는 ${SO_3}^-$와 물 사이의 수소 결합에 대한 음이온의 불안정화 영향 때문에 음이온에서는 $SCN^-$<$Br^-$<$Cl^-$<$F^-$의 순서를 따랐다. 재 팽윤은 계에서 특별한 상호 작용이 있을 때 높은 농도에서 관찰되었다. 반면 양이온에서 PSSA 겔의 수축은 $Li^+$<$Na^+$<$K^+$<$Ca^{+2}$ 순서를 따랐다. $Ca^{+2}$ 이온에서의 큰 수축 효과는 이가 양이온(+2)에 의한 PSSA 겔의 물리적 가교 때문에 나타난 것으로 보인다. 양이온에서의 수축은 ${SO_3}^-$와 양이온 사이의 상호작용 정도에 비례하였다. PSSA의 팽윤에 대한 이온 특성화 효과는 ${SO_3}^-$와 페닐 고리의 수화 수소결합에 대한 이온의 영향 정도, 양이온과 ${\pi}$ 전자의 상호작용, 소수성 상호작용, 그리고 분산력 등이 복합적으로 작용하여 나타난다고 볼 수 있다.

Recently, demand for thermally stable metal nanoparticles suitable for chemical reactions at high temperatures has increased to the point to require a solution to nanoparticle coalescence. Thermal stability of metal nanoparticles can be achieved by adopting core-shell models and encapsulating supported metal nanoparticles with mesoporous oxides [1,2]. However, to understand the role of metal-support interactions on catalytic activity and for surface analysis of complex structures, we developed a novel catalyst design by coating an ultra-thin layer of titania on Pt supported silica ($SiO_2/Pt@TiO_2$). This structure provides higher metal dispersion (~52% Pt/silica), high thermal stability (~600$^{\circ}C$) and maximization of the interaction between Pt and titania. The high thermal stability of $SiO_2/Pt@TiO_2$ enabled the investigation of CO oxidation studies at high temperatures, including ignition behavior, which is otherwise not possible on bare Pt nanoparticles due to sintering [3]. It was found that this hybrid catalyst exhibited a lower activation energy for CO oxidation because of the metal-support interaction. The concept of an ultra-thin active metal oxide coating on supported nanoparticles opens-up new avenues for synthesis of various hybrid nanocatalysts with combinations of different metals and oxides to investigate important model reactions at high-temperatures and in industrial reactions.

기존 실리카 분산제는 주로 Zn, K의 지방산 유도체이며 지방산과 금속비누의 혼합물은 활성을 높이는데 사용되었다. Zn-K 비누 형태의 실리카 분산제는 탄화수소 사슬의 유동성을 증가시켜 실리카가 함유된 고무 배합물의 점도를 낮추어 주며 그 결과 가공성이 향상된다. 실리카 분산제는 가류 특성에 영향을 미쳐서는 안되는데 Zn-K 비누형태의 분산제는 스코치 및 가류시간을 단축시켰다. 그러나 새로이 개발된 분산제의 경우 금속을 함유하지 않은 non-metal 형태이며 분산제가 실리카와 고무간의 interaction을 유도하여 실리카 분산도를 크게 향상시켰으며 이로 인해 경도 및 점도 저하를 유도하였다. 또한 새로운 분산제는 실리카 고무배합물의 가교특성 및 스코치 안정성에 영향을 미치지 않았다.

Amberlite XAD-2 및 XAD-7 수지에 대한 페놀과 그 할로겐 일치환체들에 대한 흡착성을 분포계수를 측정하여 조사하였다. XAD 수지에 대한 페놀의 흡착은 Langmuir 등온흡착으로 설명될 수 있었으며, 이 때의 흡착은 분자의 크기에 따르는, 즉 분산상호작용에 기인하는 전형적인 물리흡착임을 알았다. 고분자 합성수지에 대한 페놀류의 흡착에너지는 Lennard-Jones potential로 계산하였다. 이 때 고분자 수지의 반지름은 수지의 최소기본단위의 van der Waals 부피로부터 계산하였으며 페놀류의 분자 반지름도 같은 방법으로 구하였다. 페놀유도체들의 흡착성은 각 수지에 대한 시료의 Stacking factor (F)-고분자 수지와 페놀류사이의 van der Waals 부피로부터 구한 평형거리의 보정인자-로부터 흡착에너지를 구하고 뱃치법으로 측정한 흡착엔탈피값과 비교함으로써 설명할 수 있었다. 각 수지에 대한 페놀이온의 흡착엔탈피는 쌍극자 작용력이나 하전-쌍극자 상호작용보다 분산상호작용이 주 요인인 것으로 나타났다.

We investigate the role of small-scale and large-scale environments in triggering nuclear activity of the local galaxies using a volume-limited sample with $M_r$ < -19.5 and 0.02 < z < 0.0685 from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7. To fix the mass of the supermassive black hole in its host galaxy, we limit the central velocity dispersion of the sample galaxies. The active galactic nuclei (AGN) host sample is composed of Type II AGNs identified with flux ratios of narrow emission lines with S/N > 6. In this study, we find that the AGN fraction of late-type host galaxies are commonly larger than of early type galaxies. The AGN fraction of host galaxy with late-type nearest neighbor starts to increase as the host galaxy approaches the virial radius of the nearest neighbor (about a few hundred kpc scale). Our result may support the idea that the hydrodynamic interaction with the nearest neighbor plays an important role in triggering the nuclear activity of galaxy. The early-type galaxies in high density regions show decline of AGN activity compared to ones in lower density regions, whereas the direction of the environmental dependence of AGN activity for late-type galaxies is rather opposite. We also find that the environmental dependence of star formation rate is analogous to one of AGN activity except in the high density region.

Structural studies have been performed on precipitation hardening found in $Ni_{3}Al$ based ordered alloys using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Tilt experiments by the weak-beam method were made to obtain some information concerning the cross slip mechanism of the superlattice dislocation. The strength of ${\gamma}'-Ni_3$(Al,Ti) increases over the temperature range of experiment by the precipitation of fine $\gamma$ particles. The peak temperature where a maximum strength was obtained shifted to higher temperature. Over the whole temperature range, the interaction between dislocation and $\gamma$ precipitates is attractive. On the temperature range of 773 K to 973 K, the dislocations in ${\gamma}'$ matrix move on (111) primary slip plane. When the applied stress is removed, the dislocations make cross slip into (010) plane, while those in $\gamma$ precipitates remain on the (111) primary slip plane. The increase of high temperature strength in ${\gamma}'-Ni_3$(Al,Ti) containing $\gamma$ precipitates is due to the restraint of cross slip of dislocations from (111) to (010) by the dispersion of disordered $\gamma$ particles.

This study investigated the effect of ultrasound irradiation on the blend of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT). The blends of PLA/PBAT(50/50) (PBAT50) were prepared in a melt mixer with an ultrasonic device attached. Thermal, rheological, and mechanical properties, morphology, and biodegradability of the sonicated blends were analysed. The viscosity of the sonicated blends was increased by the ultrasound irradiation owing to the strong interaction. The morphology of the sonicated blends was significantly dependent on the duration o the ultrasound irradiation. For PBAT50, the phase size reduction was maximized when the blends were ultrasonically irradiated for 30 sec. At longer duration of ultrasound irradiation, the PBAT phase underwent flocculation. Measurement of the tensile properties showed an increased breakage tensile stress and an enhanced Young's modulus when the blends were properly irradiated. This improvement was ascribed to better adhesion between the PLA matrix and the PBAT domain and to better dispersion of the PBAT phase. However, the tensile properties were maximized after excessive energy irradiation, which was ascribed to an emulsifying effect leading to coalescence of the PBAT phase. Impact strength was increased to reach a peak with the ultrasound irradiation, and was higher than the untreated sample for all sonicated samples due to the difference of failure mechanism between the tensile test and the impact test.

$O_2$, $H_2O$, acrylic acid, diaminocyclohexane 등의 저온 플라즈마를 이용하여 시멘트 보강용 탄소 섬유 표면을 친수성으로 개질한 다음, 이에 대한 효과를 살펴보았다. 물과의 접촉각이 $75{\sim}80^{\circ}$ 정도로 소수성이던 표면이 친수성으로 변하여 접촉각이 $10^{\circ}$ 이하로까지 낮아졌으며, 이에 따라 흡습성 및 수용액에서 분산성이 크게 향상되었다. 또한, 섬유표면의 제타 포텐셜이 변하여 시멘트와 정전기적 인력이 향상됨으로써 시멘트의 결착도 향상과 함께 시멘트와의 결합이 57~124%까지 향상되었다.

Importance of procuring adequate knowledge about the mechanical behavior of double-layered graphene sheets (DLGSs) incensed the authors to investigate wave propagation responses of mentioned element while rested on a visco-Pasternak medium under hygro-thermal loading. A nonlocal strain gradient theory (NSGT) is exploited to present a more reliable size-dependent mechanical analysis by capturing both softening and hardening effects of small scale. Furthermore, in the framework of a classical plate theory the kinematic relations are developed. Incorporating kinematic relations with the definition of Hamilton's principle, the Euler-Lagrange equations of each of the layers are derived separately. Afterwards, combining Euler-Lagrange equations with those of the NSGT the nonlocal governing equations are written in terms of displacement fields. Interaction of the each of the graphene sheets with another one is regarded by the means of vdW model. Then, a widespread analytical solution is employed to solve the derived equations and obtain wave frequency values. Subsequently, influence of each participant variable containing nonlocal parameter, length scale parameter, foundation parameters, temperature gradient and moisture concentration is studied by plotting various figures.
