Acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesives are used in many different parts in the world. But acrylic acid in PSAs may occur unexpected results such as corroding adherends or producing by-products when applied within electronic devices. This study employed acrylic PSAs based on 2-ethylhexyl acrylate (2-EHA), 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (2-HEA) and butyl acrylate (BA) with different coating thickness. There are two types of curing agents. One is methylaziridine derivative (MAZ) and the other is aluminum acetylacetonate (AlACA). This study examined the adhesion performance and curing behaviors using peel strength, probe tack and gel fraction. Also, the viscoelastic properties of acrylic PSAs were investigated from Advanced rheometric expansion system (ARES).

When surfactants meet chlorine bleaches not only in the washing drums but also through the whole path from the stream to the river, it is not difficult to expect that they produce the harmful substances like DBPs. Furthermore considering wastewater that is contaminated by surfactants is used to discharge into drinking water sources via sewer system, it also can be imagined that residual surfactants would contribute to the some extent of DBPs' formation during chlorine disinfection in water treatment plants. Although the main behavior observed was the formation of chloroform during the reaction of LAS with free chlorine, the other manifest behaviors like the trends of pH, MBAS, free chlorine, the mole concentration of benzene ring and etc. were also investigated.

Fluoranthene, a common polycyclicaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), exhibits phototoxicity which may affect aquatic organisms. The eventual goal of this study is to develop a biomarker used in monitoring abnormal behaviors of Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) as a model organism caused by hazardous chemicals that are toxic and persistent in the ecosystem. In this study, we investigated neural toxicity of fluoranthene in Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) which was correlated with its behaviors.

The purpose of this study is to investigate かe factors related to the environment-oriented consumer behavior, and to analyze the effects of environmental knowledge, perception of environmental problems, and environment-oriented attitude on the environment-oriented consumer behavior. The data used in this study were collected through questionnaires on 535 wives living in Cheju City. The data were analvzed by using SPSS WIN program. The summaries of this study are as follows. Using behaviors was influenced by age and family income, but buying and disposing behavior are not influenced by socio-economic variables of wives. Environmental knowledge only has effects on disposing behaviors, and environment-oriented attitude behavior has effects on buying, using, and disposing behavior. But the perception of environmental problems hasn't effects on them. Wives' environment-oriented behavior are more effected by environment-oriented attitude than perception of environmental problems. In buying behavior, environment-oriented attitude is the most influential factor, and the reference group is the second influential factor. But in disposing behavior, the reference group is the most influential factor, and environment-oriented attitude is かe second influential factor.

The objectives of this study is to suggest marketing strategies directed of retroactive-socialized parents who have environmental-educated children at school. For this purpose, this study based on the consumer socialization agent such as family and demographic variables were studied. The scope of this study includes attitudes toward price and advertising, and interests related to environmental problems and environmental-products preference. As a result, The parents of environmental-educated children get much more environmental information and show favorable buying behaviors for environmental-products. Most of parents who get environmental information from children educated at school show favorable attitude towards the advertising and also show more preference to environmental-products and more frequent communication among family members. Parents who have environmental-educated children were insensitive to price, more consciousness about environmental problem and flexible to change in their buying behaviors. In conclusion, This study shows that behaviors of children had a significant influence on buying behavior of parents.

Objectives: This study was performed to examine the relationship between health behaviors, living environment, and asthma in adolescents in Korea. Methods: Information on adolescents' characteristics, including demographic factors, health behaviors, and doctor's diagnosis of asthma was obtained from the Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey (2015). In total, 68,043 middle and high school students participated. Environmental characteristics, including city park area and outdoor PM₁₀ concentrations in 2015 were obtained from the Korean Statistical Information Service. The adolescents' and environmental characteristics were merged by local information. Multiple logistic regression models were used to investigate the risk factors affecting asthma in adolescents. Results: The prevalence of asthma in adolescents in 2015 was 8.8%. In the multiple logistic regression analysis, adolescents who were male, attended middle school, suffered obesity, experienced tobacco smoking, had physical activity levels of 2 to 4 days, had higher stress levels, and lived in areas with outdoor PM₁₀ concentrations more than 47 ㎍/㎥ were more likely to have asthma, while adolescents who had middle levels of family economic status were less likely to do so. Conclusions: The fact that PM₁₀ concentration can affect asthma is an important point in this study. Risk factors identified in this study could be used as basic data for the prevention and management of asthma in Korea.

Purpose: Environmental education-research mainly focuses on the relationship between people and the environment. The purpose of this study is to focus on elaborating on the various ethical behaviors crucial in environmental education-related research. The study utilized a literature review of initial studies conducted on the topic as the primary source of information. Research design, data and methodology: This study has selected the literature content analysis as a research design because this analysis tool provided the present author numerous and tremendous previous works in the realm of authors' ethical issues within environmental education area and prior research already confirmed the high quality of an instrument. Results: Based on the investigation of the literature analysis, the findings emphasize that, while making any choice regarding environmental studies and research, authors and researchers must consider how ethical behavior might be applied to the particular circumstance. There are three ethical behaviors for authors and they can be founded in the section 3 of this study. Conclusions: As a conclusion of this study, three major subfields of environmental ethics-resource ethics, animal ethics, and ethics of nature protection-serve as the foundation for ethical behavior in research on environmental education. The ethical treatment of scarce resources, deployable resources, and environmental media.
