광화학증착법 (PMOD; photochemical metal-organic deposition)을 이용하여 photoresist 및 etching 공정없이 pattern 된 TiO_x resistive switching (RS) 소자를 제작 및 그 특성을 평가하였다. Ti(IV) 2-ethylhexanoate를 출발물질로 사용하였으며 UV 노출시간 10 min에 광화학반응이 완료됨을 FTIR 분석을 통하여 확인하였다. 200 ℃ 이하 저온공정에서 직접패턴 된 20 nm 두께의 비정질 TiO_x 박막의 균일한 두께의 패턴형성을 Atomic Force Microscopy를 통하여 확인하였다. 별도의 상형성을 위한 후 열처리 공정 없이 4 ㎛ 선폭의 전극위에 형성된 20 nm 두께의 비정질 TiO_x RS 소자는 4V 동작전압에서 on/off ratio 20의 forming-less RS 특성을 나타내었다. Electrochemical migration에 영향을 미치는 grain boundary가 없어 소자간 신뢰성 향상이 기대되며, flexible 기판 또는 저온공정이 요구되는 메모리 소자 공정에서 PMOD 공정이 응용될 수 있음을 보여준다. Selector를 이용하여 crossbar array 구조를 도입할 경우 매우 간단한 구조의 저비용 메모리 소자를 구현할 수 있을 것으로 기대 된다.

Oleanolic acid (OA) as template molecule, polyamide-6 (PA6) as basement membrane and poly(styrene-comaleic acid) (PSMA) were used to prepare PA6/PSMA-OA molecularly imprinted composite membranes by phase inversion method in supercritical $CO_2$ ($ScCO_2$). The template molecule (OA), [poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride) (PSMAH), PSMA, molecularly imprinted membranes (MIMs) imprinting OA and MIMs after elution were all characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The conditions that were the mass ratio between PSMA and OA from 3:1 to 8:1, temperature of $ScCO_2$ from $35^{\circ}C$ to $50^{\circ}C$ and pressure of $ScCO_2$ 12 MPa to 17 MPa were studied. It was obtained the largest adsorption rate and purity of OA after adsorption of the resultant MIMs, 50.41% and 96.15% respectively. After using PA6 film and non-woven fabrics as basement membrane respectively, it was found that smaller aperture of PA6 was used as basement membrane, a higher adsorption rate and a higher purity of OA after adsorption of the MIMs were obtained, and so were the stability and reproducibility of the resultant MIMs. After template molecules being removed, the MIMs had effective selectivity hydrogen bonding to separately bind in the binary components to the template molecules-oleanolic acid.

본 연구에서는 filler-rubber interaction을 향상시키기 위하여 clay의 유기화제로 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane(APTES)을 사용하여 styrene butadiene rubber(SBR)/organoclay nanocomposite를 라텍스법으로 제조하였다. 컴파운딩시 혼련 온도에 따라 bis(triethoxysilylpropyl)tetrasulfide(TESPT)를 첨가하여 APTES에 의해 생성된 hydroxyl group과 TESPT의 ethoxy group 사이에 실란화 반응 정도에 따른 filler-rubber interaction 향상 정도를 연구하기 위하여 X-선 회절법을 이용한 silicates의 층간구조분석, 모폴로지(morphology), 적외선분광법, 팽윤도 및 기계적물성을 평가하였다. XRD분석과 TEM이미지로 관찰한 결과 silicates 층간에 APTES가 삽입된 구조를 형성하였고 고무기질 내에 organoclay의 분산이 잘 이루어졌다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 적외선 분광법을 이용하여 APTES-MMT를 분석한 결과 APTES에 의해 silicates 표면에 다량의 hydroxyl 그룹이 형성되어 TESPT의 ethoxy group과 실란화 반응이 가능하였다. SBR/APTES-MMT 컴파운드에 TESPT를 첨가시 SBR/APTESMMT 컴파운드보다 300% 모듈러스가 약 1.3 배 정도 증가하였다. 이는 APTES의 hydroxyl group과 TESPT의 ethoxy group 사이에 실란화 반응이 이루어져 filler-rubber interaction이 향상된 결과였으며, 컴파운딩시 혼련온도 증가에 따른 모듈러스 향상 효과는 미미하였다. 결과적으로 SBR/APTES-MMT 컴파운드의 경우 고무 기질 내에 silicates의 분산 정도와 가교도 증가에 따라 모듈러스가 증가하였으며, SBR/APTES-MMT 컴파운드에 TESPT를 첨가시 filler-rubber interaction이 향상되어 모듈러스가 더욱 증가하였다.

Resin cements are used for cementing indirect esthetic restorations such as resin or porcelain inlays. Because of its limitations in curing of purely light cured resin cements due to attenuation of the curing light by intervening materials, dual cured resin cements are recommended for cementing restorations. The physical properties of resin cements are greatly influenced by the extent to which a resin cures and the degree of cure is an important factor in the success of the inlay. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of porcelain thickness and exposure time on the polymerization of resin cements by measuring the microhardness and the degree of conversion, to investigate the nature of the correlation between two methods mentioned above, and to determine the exposure time needed to harden resin cements through various thickness of porcelain. The degree of resin cure was evaluated by the measurements of microhardness [Vickers Hardness Number(VHN)] and degree of conversion(DC), as determined by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy(FTIR) on one light cured composite resin [Z-100(Z)] and three dual cured resin cements [Duo cement(D), 3M Resin cement(R), and Dual cement(DA)] which were cured under porcelain discs thickness of 0mm, 1mm, 2mm, 3mm with light exposure time of 40sec, 80sec, 120sec, and regression analysis was performed to determine the correlation between VHN and DC. In addition, to determine the exposure time needed to harden resin cements under various thickness of porcelain discs, the changes of the intensity of light attenuated by 1mm, 2mm, and 3mm thickness of porcelain discs were measured using the curing radiometer. The results were obtained as follows ; 1. The values of microhardness and the degree of conversion of resin cements without intervening porcelain discs were 31~109VHN and 51~63%, respectively. In the microhardness Z was the highest, followed by R, D, DA. In the degree of conversion, D and DA was significantly greater than Z and R(p<0.05). 2. The microhardness and the degree of conversion of the resin cements decreased with increasing thickness of porcelain discs, and increased with increasing exposure time, D and R showed great variation with inlay thickness and exposure time, whereas, DA showed a little variation. 3. The intensity of light through 1mm, 2mm, and 3mm porcelain inlays decreased by 0.43, 0.25, and 0.14 times compared to direct illumination, and the respective needed exposure times are 53 sec, 70 sec, and 93 sec. In D and R, 40 sec of light irradiation through 2mm porcelain disc and 80 sec of light irradiation through 3mm porcelain disc were not enough to complete curing. 4. The microhardness and the degree of conversion of the resin cements showed a positive correlationship(R=0.791~0.965) in the order of R, D, Z, DA. As the thickness of porcelain discs increased, the decreasing pattern of microhardness was different from that of the degree of conversion, however.

Background: Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the major complications of chronic hyperglycaemia affecting normal kidney functioning. The ayurvedic medicine curcumin (CUR) is pharmaceutically accepted for its vast biological effects. Objectives: The Curcuma-derived diferuloylmethane compound CUR, loaded on Poly (lactide-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) nanoparticles was utilized to combat DN-induced renal apoptosis by selectively targeting and modulating Bcl2. Methods: Upon in silico molecular docking and screening study CUR was selected as the core phytocompound for nanoparticle formulation. PLGA-nano-encapsulated-curcumin (NCUR) were synthesized following standard solvent displacement method. The NCUR were characterized for shape, size and other physico-chemical properties by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) and Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy studies. For in vivo validation of nephro-protective effects, Mus musculus were pre-treated with CUR at a dose of 50 mg/kg b.w. and NCUR at a dose of 25 mg/kg b.w. (dose 1), 12.5 mg/kg b.w (dose 2) followed by alloxan administration (100 mg/kg b.w) and serum glucose levels, histopathology and immunofluorescence study were conducted. Results: The in silico study revealed a strong affinity of CUR towards Bcl2 (dock score -10.94 Kcal/mol). The synthesized NCUR were of even shape, devoid of cracks and holes with mean size of ~80 nm having -7.53 mV zeta potential. Dose 1 efficiently improved serum glucose levels, tissue-specific expression of Bcl2 and reduced glomerular space and glomerular sclerosis in comparison to hyperglycaemic group. Conclusion: This study essentially validates the potential of NCUR to inhibit DN by reducing blood glucose level and mitigating glomerular apoptosis by selectively promoting Bcl2 protein expression in kidney tissue.

Objectives: This study measured and analyzed the concentrations of crystalline silica, elemental carbon and the contribution ratio of pollutants which influence environmental and respiratory disease around the Ansim Briquette Fuel Complex in Daegu, Korea. Methods: We analyzed the crystalline silica and elemental carbon in the air according to FTIR(Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) and NIOSH(National Institute of Occupation Safety and Health) method 5040, respectively. In addition, lead stable isotopes, and carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes were analyzed using MC-ICP/MS(Multi Collector-Inductively Coupled Plasma/Mass Spectrometer), and IRMS(Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer), respectively. Results: The concentration of crystalline silica in the direct exposure area around the Ansim Briquette Fuel Complex was found to be $0.0014{\pm}0.0005mg/Sm^3$, but not to exceed the exposure standards of the ACGIH(American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists). In the case of the autumn, the direct exposure area was found to show a level 2.5 times higher than the reference area, and on the whole, the direct exposure area was found to have a level 1.4 times higher than the reference area. The concentration of elemental carbon in the direct exposure area and in the reference area were found to be $0.0014{\pm}0.0006mg/Sm^3$, and $0.0006{\pm}0.0003mg/Sm^3$, respectively. This study confirmed the contribution ratio of coal raw materials to residentially deposited dusts in the area within 500 meters from the Ansim Briquette Fuel Complex and the surrounding area with a stable isotope ratio of 24.0%(0.7-62.7%) on average in the case of carbon and nitrogen, and 33.9%(26.6-54.1%) on average in the case of lead stable isotopes. Conclusions: This study was able to confirm correlations with coal raw materials used by the Ansim Briquette Fuel Complex and the surrounding area. The concentration of some pollutants, crystalline silica, and elemental carbon emitted to the direct-influence area around the Ansim Briquette Fuel Complex were relatively higher than in the reference area. Therefore, we need to impose continuous and substantive reduction countermeasures in the future to prevent particulate matter and coal raw materials in the study area. It is time for the local government and authorities to prepare active administrative methods such as the relocation of Ansim Briquette Fuel Complex.
