This study was performed to find potentialities of the leaves of gingko tree (Gingko biloba L.) as a raw material for particleboard (PB) manufacturing. Various amounts of the leaves were mixed with wasted wood particles to manufacture PB. Physical and mechanical properties, such as density, internal bond (IB) strength, and modulus of rupture (MOR) of manufactured PB were not much different from those of the control board. Formaldehyde emission values decreased with increasing the amount of leaves. Especially, the formaldehyde emission of PB made with 5 percent of leaves was decreased to 1.31 mg/l, which is about 36% lower emission than that of the control. From these results, the leaves of gingko tree may be considered as an additive of lowering formaldehyde emission in a functional PB manufacturing process.

Sick building syndrome symptoms that are experienced by building occupants may be caused by toxic substances such as formaldehyde and VOCs, which are known to be emitted from building materials and wood composite products such as wood-based panel, furniture, engineered flooring and construction adhesive. In Korea, the use of wood composite products for indoor environments has increased over the last decade. Recently, wood composite products have been installed in approximately 95% of newly constructed residential buildings. The use of these products has resulted in problems related to human health, and consequently a realization about the importance of indoor air quality. In addition, consumer demand is increasing for natural materials because conventional building materials and wood composite products are made by adding urea-formaldehyde resin or they contain formaldehyde-based resin. More recently, many efforts have been made to reduce formaldehyde emission from building materials that laid in the indoor environment. Especially, if conventional formaldehyde-based adhesives are replaced with green adhesives for residential spaces, it is possible to reduce most of the emission amounts of formaldehyde in indoor environments. In line with this expectation, many researches are being conducted using natural materials such as tannin and cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL). This study discussed the affects and possibilities of green adhesives to reduce formaldehyde emission in indoor environments.

Experiments have been conducted to investigate the characteristics of formaldehyde and nitrous oxide formation from the catalytic reaction of methane. Catalysts used in the experiment were Pd. Pd/Pt/Rh loaded on ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ and ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3-La_2O_3$ monolith. In the catalytic reaction of methane. as the concentration of NO, $O_2$ and $CH_4$ increased, the formaldehyde emission was increased. The concentration of $N_2O$ increased as NO and CO increased. It was also found that the formaldehyde emission was produced by the gas reaction of methane in high temperature above 950K.

This paper attempted to review measuring methods of formaldehyde emission from wood-based panel products. Methods included for the discussion were desiccator methods, extraction method, and various chamber methods. First, the procedures and testing conditions of 24-hour desiccator method was critically reviewed, and an improvement of this method was proposed to meet international standards. Two different small chamber methods ($20\ell$ and $1m^3$ chamber methods) were also compared in terms of their advantages and disadvantages. In addition, the regulation levels of formaldehyde emission of wood-based composite panels were compared for different countries. The selection of a reference method of measuring formaldehyde emission of wood panel products should consider the ease of conducting test and cost required. Results should be exchangeable for different methods.

In the quantitative analysis of oxygenated exhaust emissions (unburned methanol, formal- dehyde) from methanol fueled vehicles, the oxygen contained in oxygenated exhaust gases lowers the FID (Flame Ionization Detector) response factor of conventional THC analyzer and leads to erroneous HC reading. For correct measurement of various HCs including oxygenated HCs emitted from FFV(Flexible Fuel Vehicle), first of all, the measurement technique of real HC emissions should be established. GC and HPLC-DNPH measuring methods specified by the EPA are used in this paper to analyze unburned methanol and formaldehyde components in the exhaust emissions. In emission test of FFV, unburned methanol and formaldehyde are emitted mostly during cold transient period, and it is shown that formaldehyde emission level is proportional to engine displacements. In view of the HC emission level, vehicle using M85 has 40% advantage over gasoline-fueled vehicle in OMHCE and has a good potential of a low emission vehicle.

본 연구에서는 대기오염에 대한 저항성과 내충성, 항균성 등이 강하여 가로수로 많이 심어진 은행나무에 있어서, 그 잎의 파티클보드 제조 원료로서의 가능성을 모색하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 은행나무 잎을 분쇄한 다음 목재 파티클에 소량 혼합하여 파티클보드를 제조하였다. 은행나무 잎을 혼합하여 제조한 파티클보드의 물리, 기계적 성질을 조사하고 포름알데히드 방출량의 저감효과에 대해 검토하였다. 목재 파티클에 대하여 은행나무 잎을 $1{\sim}5%$ 첨가하여 제조한 파티클보드는 은행나무 잎을 첨가하지 않은 대조구에 비해 밀도, 함수율, 흡수두께팽창률 등 물리적 성질과 휨강도, 박리강도와 같은 기계적 성질은 크게 감소하지 않았으며 모두 KS 파티클보드의 기준을 만족하였다. 은행나무 잎의 혼합량에 따라 포름알데히드 방출량은 점차 감소하였으며, 특히 은행나무 잎이 3% 첨가된 파티클보드의 포름알데히드 방출량은 $2.81mg/{\ell}$에서 $1.66mg/{\ell}$로 대조구에 비해 약 40% 감소하였다. 은행나무 잎이 지닌 고유한 항균성에 덧붙여 본 연구로부터 얻어진 결과는 낙엽으로 폐기되는 은행나무 잎을 원료로 포름알데히드 방출량이 낮은 기능성 파티클보드를 제조할 수 있다는 새로운 사실을 보여주고 있다.

합판의 경우에는 제조 시 접착제가 각 단판의 전체 면에 도포되는 것이 아니라 접착 면에만 도포되므로 접착층을 따라서 접착제가 분포하게 된다. 따라서 섬유판이나 파티클보드의 경우와는 달리 전체 표면을 통하여 포름알데히드가 방산되지 않고 접착층을 따라서 방산된다고 판단되어진다. 따라서 기존의 KS M 1998-4 : 2005 방법으로 포름알데히드방산량을 측정하는 방법이 적절하지 않을 수도 있다고 판단되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 동일한 조건에서 제조한 합판을 4가지 측정 조건에 따라 포름알데히드방산량을 측정하여 이들의 상관관계를 검토하였다. 기존의 전체 표면적을 기준으로 측정하는 방법(KS F 3101-2006)과 일정한 수의 시험편을 이용하는 방법(KS F 3101-1998), 측면 면적만을 이용하는 방법, 그리고 접착층만을 이용하는 방법으로 포름알데히드방산량을 측정하였다. 그 결과 전체 표면적 기준과 시험편의 개수 기준, 측면 면적 기준으로 시험한 방법은 반복실험결과 재현성과 경향성이 없었으나, 접착층만을 고려하여 시험편의 개수를 정하여 측정한 경우에는 재현성과 경향성을 보였다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the performance of formaldehyde removal from building materials using catechin contained in ginkgo leaf. A small chamber method was used to set up one control group and three experimental groups. As a result, it showed a reduction of formaldehyde from at least 73.5% to 77% when it was increased by 0.4g compared to the control (0g). In addition, it was confirmed by linear regression analysis that the amount of ginkgo leaf and the amount of formaldehyde emission were negatively correlated. Therefore, it was confirmed that the amount of formaldehyde emission was affected by ginkgo leaf.

With the recent interest in methanol as a SI engine fuel, aldehyde emissions have become a greater concern. A M-90 fueled passenger car was operated in a chassis dynamometer using FTP 75 driving cycle to examine formaldehyde emissions. Formation process of aldehyde and methods to reduce them are discussed in this paper for a SI-engine passenger car operating by M-90. Aldehyde emissions have been found to be 3 to 7 times higher from M-90 than from gasoline, while CO, NOx, THC are as low or lower than gasoline. Noble metal compositions appeared to play a role in formaldehyde and unburned methanol emission performance. For example, catalyst Pd showed better reduction of both formaldehyde and methanol than catalyst Pt. however, emission rates of formaldehyde and methanol for catalyst Pt were relatively similar to catalyst Pt/Rh.

실내 건축내장재로 medium density fiberboard (MDF)는 널리 사용되는 재료이지만, MDF 합판과 표면재의 바인더로 사용되는 포름알데히드 수지의 유리 포름알데히드와 휘발성 유기화합물의 방산 문제점이 있다. 이를 해결하기위해 본 연구에서는 포름알데히드 흡착성능이 있는 축합형 탄닌을 활용하여 표면재에 적용 하였다. 표면재에 사용되는 수지는 멜라민-포름알데히드 수지와 축합형 탄닌을 사용하여 합성하였으며 반응여부는 FT-IR 스펙트럼으로 확인하였다. 또한 전단응력, 충격강도, 테이프에 의한 접착력 실험, 연필경도, 광택도 그리고 접촉각 등과 같은 표면물성을 측정하였고 미반응 포름알데히드를 분석하기 위하여 유리 포름알데히드 분석법과 소형챔버법이 이용되었다. 결과에 따르면 전단응력과 충격강도는 축합형 탄닌의 함유량이 10 wt.% 일 때 가장 우수한 접착물성을 나타내었지만, 연필경도와 광택도의 경우에는 축합형 탄닌의 함유량이 20 wt.% 일 때 최적의 물성을 발현하였다. 또한 포름알데히드 방산량은 59 ${\mu}g/m^2{\cdot}h$ 로 축합형 탄닌의 첨가에 의해 포름알데히드 방산량을 약 3배 정도 감소 시킬 수 있었다.
