Outdoor sculptures of modern art works are being damaged and deteriorated as they are exposed to the outdoor environment due to the nature of exhibition in the outdoor environment, but secure of basic data through the measures for conservation and advanced researches still remain in the early stage. The surface of "Conversion" which is exhibited in the Busan Cheonmasan Sculpture Park has been exfoliated and deteriorated due to outdoor exhibition for a long time, so systematic conservation and management of works are considered necessary. Prior to the conservation and management, this study conducted observation of cross section, analysis of inorganic components, FT-IR, Raman and Py-GC/Mass analysis to examine the nature and type of paints used for the work through a scientific analysis. As a result of analysis, paints used for the "Conversion" include paint mixed with silvery aluminium powder and white pigment, reddish paint mixed with toluidine red, bluish paint that mixed prussian blue and titanium white and mixture of phthalocyanine blue and titanium white. The result is expected to be used as basic data for selecting materials necessary for conservative treatment of and establishing a plan for conservative treatment of the "Conversion".

A one-step high-temperature solvothermal approach to the synthesis of monolayer or bilayer $MoS_2$ anchored onto reduced graphene oxide (RGO) sheet (denoted as $MoS_2/RGO$) is described. It was found that single-layered or double-layered $MoS_2$ were synthesized directly without an extra exfoliation step and well dispersed on the surface of crumpled RGO sheets with random orientation. The prepared $MoS_2/RGO$ composites delivered a high reversible capacity of $900mAhg^{-1}$ after 200 cycles at a current density of $200mAg^{-1}$ as well as good rate capability as anode active material for lithium ion batteries. This one-step high-temperature hydrothermal strategy provides a simple, cost-effective and eco-friendly way to the fabrication of exfoliated $MoS_2$ layers deposited onto RGO sheets.

A stray female cat of unknown age, presenting bright red watery diarrhea, was submitted to the Animal and Plant Quarantine Agency for diagnosis. In the small intestines extracted from the necropsied cat, numerous white oval-shaped organisms were firmly embedded in the mucosa and there was thickening of intestinal wall. Histopathological analysis revealed severe necrotizing enteritis, together with atrophied intestinal villi, exfoliated enterocytes, and parasitic worms. Recovered worms were identified as Pharyngostomum cordatum by morphological observation and genetic analysis. Although P. cordatum is known to occur widely in Korea, this is the first clinical description of an infection by P. cordatum causing severe feline enteritis.

In recent years, mica has been successfully used as a substrate for the growth of flexible epitaxial ferroelectric oxide thin films. Here, we systematically investigated the flexibility of mica in terms of its thickness, repeated bending/unbending, extremely hot/cold conditions, and successive thermal cycling. A $20-{\mu}m-thick$ sheet of mica is flexible even up to the bending radius of 5 mm, and it is durable for 20,000 cycles of up- and down-bending. In addition, the mica shows flexibility at 10 and 773 K, and thermal cycling stability for the temperature variation of ca. 400 K. Compared with the widely used flexible polyimide, mica has a significantly higher Young's modulus (ca. 5.4 GPa) and negligible hysteresis in the force-displacement curve. These results show that mica should be a suitable substrate for piezoelectric energy-harvesting applications of ferroelectric oxide thin films at extremely low and high temperatures.

This study aimed to improve the moisture resistance of salt cores by investigating the suitability of a two-dimensional kaolinite colloidal solution and a commercially available SiO₂ ink solution as coating agents. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) results showed that the intercalation of urea into kaolinite did not significantly change its layer structure. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images revealed that the dip-coating only affected the surface of the salt core, and the texture of the surface is differ depending on the coating solution. The humidity absorption test results showed that both coatings reduced the hygroscopicity of the salt core by more than 50%. However, in the water-solubility test, the kaolinite dissolved with the salt core, whereas the SiO₂-coated salt core left a residue. These results strongly suggest that with the coating of the exfoliated kaolinite solution, salt core will remain stable in humid environments.

Background: In our study, a silver diamine fluoride (SDF) compound for the treatment of dental caries was synthesized to characterize its remineralization activity upon direct application to deciduous teeth. This study aimed to use microscopic computed tomography (microCT) and nanoindentation to evaluate whether SDF composite application could effectively arrest dental caries in five exfoliated primary molars. Methods: Carious teeth were extracted and visually examined using quantitative photofluorescence devices (Qraycam and QraypenTM). After performing microCT, the SDF composite was applied to the teeth according to the manufacturer's instructions. The researchers exchanged and precipitated the irritant saliva once daily for 1 week. The teeth were sectioned longitudinally through the centers of the mesial and distal surfaces, embedded, polished, and measured using nanoindentation. Thereafter, microCT was repeated. Statistical analyses were performed using GraphPad Prism software. Results: Following SDF composite application, a remineralized layer was observed on microCT images, and the hardness increased when measured using nanoindentation. We found that demineralized enamel presented with an increased number of irregular crystals in the deep carious lesion group compared with those in the shallow carious lesion group, resulting in a rougher surface. Conclusion: The SDF composite may be used for remineralization of early caries and cessation of advanced caries in primary molars.

This research presents an evaluation of the weathering and deterioration state of the Wanggung-ri five-storied stone pagoda in the Iksan (National Treasure No. 289) and suggests conservational schemes. A deterioration map of the pagoda was drawn from the aspects of petrological, physical, chemical, biological, structural and artificial weathering.The rock properties consisting of the pagoda were medium-grained biotite granite that had leucocratic phenocryst developed in parts. The body of each story suffered severely from the secondary contamination that turned the colors into light grey, pitch dark, yellowish brown, and reddish brown as well as granular decomposition, exfoliation and peel-off. The roof stones were heavy exfoliated or peeled off in most of the cases. In addition to the fine cracks, there were layered cracks on the corners. The roof stones of the3rd and 4th story in the north and west side had some stones fall-off, while those of the 2ndstory in the north side had steel reinforcement filled for a fixing purpose. Those of the 5th story showed big gaps that must have originated from cracks and were easily subject to granular decomposition and rainfall. The inside clay filler was missing in the lower part of the roof stones of the 4th and 5th story and the supporting stones, which were thus covered by light grey or pitch dark sediments. The contact area of the materials was about 70 % in the parts where there was a space due to the filler missing and washigher than 90 % in the lower parts of the pagoda. About 90 % or more of the roof stones surface of each story were covered by aerial plants that formed a thick biological mat. Thus it seemed necessary to come up with the conservational measures to remove the plans living on the surface of the stone materials, with the plans to prevent rain from falling inside, and with the water repellent and hardening treatments to postpone the surface weathering of the rock properties. All those measures and plans must be based on the results of long-term monitoring and thorough detail investigations.

무기 점도증진제를 도입한 고내상 에멀션 중합법에 의해 고강도의 열린 기공을 갖는 미세구조 발포체를 제조하였다. 오일상 점도증진제로 유기화 점토를 사용하였고 수용상 점도증진제로는 무처리된 친수성 점토인 천연 몬모릴로나이트를 사용하였다. 고내상 에멀션의 유변물성은 오일상 점도증진제의 농도와 교반속도가 증가할수록 증가하였는데 이는 연속상 점도와 분산상 점도간의 경쟁과 전단력의 증가를 반영하여 액적의 크기를 감소시켰기 때문이었다. 점도증진제 농도에 따른 액적의 크기 변화는 캐필러리 수와 점도비 사이의 무차원 해석으로 설명할 수 있었다. 고내상 에멀션을 중합하여 제조한 발포체를 대상으로 파괴 강도 및 압축 탄성률로 표현되는 압축 물성을 측정하여 비교하였다. 본 연구에서 제조한 미세기공 발포체 중에서 반응성 작용기를 지닌 유기화 점토를 도입한 발포체의 경우 우수한 압축 물성을 보여 주었다. 이는 유기화 점토가 폴리스티렌 매트릭스 내에 박리된 형태로 존재하여 나노복합 발포체를 이루기 때문으로 사료된다.

플라스틱 포장 폐기물로 인한 환경오염을 해결하기 위한 대안으로 생분해성 필름이 많이 연구되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 우럭 껍질 젤라틴(RFG)과 nano-clay(Cloisite $Na^+$, 10A)의 복합필름의 특성에 관하여 연구하였다. 우럭 껍질로부터 젤라틴을 추출하여 sorbitol을 가소제로서 첨가한 단백질 필름을 제조하였고, 제조된 RFG 필름의 tensile strength(TS), water vapor permeability(WVP), water solubility(WS)는 각각 15.0 MPa, $2.70{\times}10^{-9}g\;m/m^2\;s\;Pa$, 53.8%였다. RFG에 nano-clay를 첨가한 복합필름은 TS가 증가하고 WVP와 WS는 감소하였다. XRD 분석과 SEM 측정 결과를 통하여 RFG/nano-clay 복합필름 내부에 박리형 구조를 형성함을 확인할 수 있었다. 결론적으로 본 연구 결과 RFG/nano-clay 복합필름은 생분해성 포장재로 적용될 수 있음을 시사한다.
