UV-Curing technology can be classified into two categories for radical curing and cation curing. It also has mainly focused on surface finishing technology to improve functionality of various substrates such as plastics and metals. On the other hand, EB technology has dealt with cross-linking reactions as well as polymerization process to create novel functional materials. Both technologies have advantages in energy utilizing efficiency and environmental friendly when compared to conventional thermoset coatings. Consequently, UV cured coatings also permits a reduction in the $CO_2$ and VOCs emitted in the drying and curing process. This review mainly shows radical curing technology which is commonly used in UV curing coatings and also describes the technology trends of cation curing which has been attracted attention recently.

Automatic washing machines have been improved and popularized steadily since the first electric washing machine was produced in the early 1900's. Appliance industry has tried to obtain the performance of washing machine with large capacity, high energy efficiency, low vibration and low noise levels. As the installation peace of a washer becomes closer to the living space, vibration and noise problems become more important challenges. In general, a washing machine has four legs to support its body. Four legs of the washing machine should be attached on a floor. If not so, it may cause severe vibration or walking in the spin-drying process. Unfortunately, the floor of an ordinary house is bumpy in general, and the consumers will not accept bolting washing machines to a foundation; moreover, sometimes they move the location of their washing machines to utility rooms or bath rooms or kitchens and don't care for leveling the legs exactly. In this study, we devise an auto-leg system that prevents the occurrence of abnormal vibration and walking of washing machines. It is simply composed of a spring and a friction damper. Some experiments are implemented to show the dynamic characteristics of the three-dimensional auto-legged washing machine model that is located on the even or uneven ground. A spring parameter is optimized to adjust the length of the auto-leg system automatically up to 10 mm irregularity, and the friction damper is designed to decrease a resonance induced by the spring of the auto-leg system. Some numerical results show that placing the proposed auto-leg system in a washing machine makes good performance with low vibration, as well as low noise, regardless of the unevenness of the floor.

Sludge disposal technology has been studied with many researchers since disposal of sewage sludge has been a social problem. The current technologies include incineration, carbonization, pyrolysis, landfilling and fertilization. However, all of these processes require a dry process, because sewage sludge with more than 80% high water content is difficult to be used as a raw material. This study has the purpose to establish the optimal operation conditions and the technology as changing the variables: kiln residence time, sludge load, dryer temperature, by using the previous study that is rotary kiln type dryer designed as a numerical simulation study. As the results, optimum conditions are determined as follows: kiln residence time, sludge load, dryer temperature are $62.5kg/m^3{\cdot}hr$, 26.2 min, $330^{\circ}C$, respectively. Content of water, drying efficiency, weight loss, volume loss show that the results are $10{\pm}2$, 88, 80, 60%, and the dried sludge is released by a dryer below 10 mm.

Municipal solid wastes in Korea have physical and chemical properties suitable for composting, but composting has had little practical use in solid waste disposal until now because of a lack of understanding of process control. For practical use of composting, process control must be capable of maintaining good product quality while large quantities are composted in a short period of time. Ventilation control to maintain optimum temperature(Temperature Feedback Aeration Method) is reported to be convenient to operate. The purpose of this study is to analyze process efficiency and optimum temperature in the temperature feedback aeration method for composting of municipal solid wastes. The results of this study show that degradation and drying of substrate in the temperature feedback aeration method are higher than those in the constant aeration method. And the optimum temperature range for composting of solid wastes appears to be $50{\sim}54^{\circ}C$.

Activated carbon SCR(CSCR) catalyst that is used to remove $NO_x$ in exhaust gas including boron discharged from the production process of liquid crystal display(LCD) shows deactivation when boron is deposited to block the pores within the catalyst or to cover its active sites. The spent carbon catalyst is regenerated by washing with various surfactants, drying and calcination. For comparison of the physical and chemical properties before and after the regeneration with the variables, type of surfactants and calcination condition, element analysis by ICP, $N_{2}$ adsorption were conducted. $DeNO_{x}$ in SCR with $NH_3$ was carried out in a fixed bed reactor at $120^{\circ}C$. The activated carbon catalyst regenerated through washing with a non-ionic surfactant in $H_{2}O$ at $90^{\circ}C$ and calcination under $N_{2}$ gas at $550^{\circ}C$ shows similar level of surface area and $NO_x$ removal efficiency with those of fresh catalyst.

TiO$_2$thin films were prepared on the glass by a conventional spin coating method with $TiO_2$ sol(30wt%, anatase). The thickness of the thin films were controlled by the number of coating cycles: one cycle is composed of spin coating, drying, and heating process. The reaction rate of the film was obtained by the photodecomposition of gaseous benzene under 0.44 and 2.0mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$ UV light on the film surface. For an incident UV light intensity of 0.44mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$, the reaction rate was increased with the thickness of the film, caused by extent of surface area, but there was no change over the thickness of about 4$\mu\textrm{m}$. The porous $TiO_2$ thin film has comparatively vast effective surface area, which under relatively high-intensity UV illumination causes the reaction rate to be controlled by the film thickness.

Absorption and luminescence characteristics of disperse red-19 (DR-19) and $TiO_2$ composite have been investigated with various poling electric field strengths. Two step synthetic processes were employed to employ the DR-19 to the $TiO_2$ sol-gel. Firstly, urethane bond formation between DR-19 (-OH) and 3-isocyanatopropyl triethoxysilane (ICPTES, -N=C=O) performed (ICPDR) prior incorporation to the $TiO_2$ sol-gel. Secondary, the hydrolysis of the ethoxy group from the ICPTES and condensation reaction between silanol groups from ICPTES and $TiO_2$ sol-gel were performed. The ICPDR and $TiO_2$ sol-gel ($DRTiO_2$) were mixed and stirred for several days. The composite was coated to the ITO coated glass substrate. Corona poling were performed before drying the composite with various electric field strengths. The absorption intensity decreased with the increase of the poling field strength, which resulted in the increase of poling efficiency. The photoluminescence also decreased as the poling field strength increased. There is long luminescence tail for the poled $DRTiO_2$ film compared with unpoled $DRTiO_2$ film. The luminescence long tail indicates that the self-trapped excitons and polarons were generated when the $DRTiO_2$ film was poled with electric field.

1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BCNU, carmustine) is one of the effective chemotherapeutic agents which has been used clinically for treating malignant glioma. Poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA, molecular weight: 20000 g/mole. mole ratio of lactide to glycolide 75 : 15) is a well known biodegradable polymer used as a drug carrier for drug delivery system. In this study, we investigated the BCNU release behaviour of BCNU-loaded PLGA wafers containing poly (N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) or polyethyleneoxide (PEO) and the effect of hydrophilic polymers incoporated in the wafers. BCNU-loaded PLGA microparticles with or without hydrophilic polymers were prepared by a spray drying method and fabricated into wafers by direct compression. Encapsulation efficiency of BCNU-loaded PLGA microparticles containing PVP and PEO was 85 ∼ 97% and crystallinity of BCNU encapsulated in PLGA decreased significantly initial release amount and release rate of BCNU increased with the increasing PVP or PEO amount. Morphological change and mass loss of wafers during the release test were confirmed that hydration and degradation of PLGA would be facilitated with an increase of hydrophilic polymers.

This study was carried out to investigate the microencapsulation characteristics of squid liver oil according to various ratios of wall materials and squid liver oil. The emulsion stability and the water binding capacity increased with an increase in wall materials contents. The microencapsulation efficiency was found to be in the order of 7:3>4:6>3:7>5:5>6:4 by mixing ratio of wall materials and squid liver oil; also, ratio of 7:3 was found to be inappropriate because the oil content in the powder was not sufficient. Regarding the fatty acid composition, the content of polyunsaturated fatty acid was found to be over 50% in all treatment groups. The ratio of polyunsaturated to saturated fatty acid of the powder was the highest (2.13) at the mixing ratio of 4:6.

최근 중소규모 하천은 하천수 및 하천변 지하수 이용의 증가와 토지이용변화 등 유역 내 수문인자의 특성 변화로 인해 하천의 건천화가 점증하고 있어 하천 환경이 악화되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 격자기반의 분포형 장기수문 모델(PGA-CC)을 이용하여 과거 수십년동안 토지이용변화에 따른 하천 건천화 영향을 평가하였다. 실제 건천화가 진행되고 있는 삽교천 상류유역($358.8km^2$)을 선정하였고 토지이용변화분석을 위해 과거 1975년 토지이용도(Past), 현재 2008년 토지이용도(Present)를 구축하였다. 각각의 토지이용 항목 중 변화율이 가장 높은 도시비율은 과거 토지이용도에서는 2.6 %였으며 현재 토지이용도에서는 11.3 %로 8.7 %가 증가하였다. 모델 검보정은 최근 7년(2005-2011)동안 최종유역출구지점에서 유출 검보정을 실시하였다. 그 결과 NSE (Nash-Sutcliffe model efficiency)은 평균 0.71로 유출량의 모의값과 실측값이 유효한 것으로 나타났다. 건천화를 평가하기 위해 시험유역에서의 5 WPs (Watching Points)를 선정하여 과거 및 현재 토지이용조건을 모의하고 유황분석을 통한 갈수 변화량 분석을 실시하였다. 건천화 빈도분석을 위해 GEV (Generalized Extreme Value) 갈수빈도분석을 실시하여 과거 토지이용 모의결과 산정된 평균 갈수량($m^3/s$) 이하로 낮아지는 유출량 일수를 계산하였다. 최종유역출구에서 과거 및 현재 토지이용도에서 모의된 평균갈수량은 각각 $3.27m^3/s$ 및 $3.11m^3/s$로 나타났다. GEV 갈수빈도분석결과 과거 토지이용조건에서의 평균갈수량은 $3.20m^3/s$(재현기간 2.33년)으로 나타났다. 도시증가에 따른 인구증가는 지하수 사용량에 증가를 가져온다. 이는, 건천화에 영향을 미치며 본 연구에서는 지하수이용량 자료(1998-2011)를 이용하여 도시면적과 지하수이용량의 선형회귀분석을 실시하여 과거 22년 지하수 사용량을 예측하였다. 그 결과 지하수사용량 증가는 토지이용변화와 복합적으로 상류유역에 하천의 변화를 가속시키는 것으로 나타냈다.
