라디오 주파수(13.56 MHz) 무전극 종형 플라즈마 반응기를 이용하여 천연고무 가교체의 표면을 클로로디플루오로메탄으로 처리하였다. FT-적외선 분광분석으로 표면개질 정도를 정성적으로 조사하였다. 플라즈마 처리표면의 마찰힘은 플라즈마 처리시간 증가에 따라 감소하였다. 고무표면에 에틸렌글리콜과 물을 떨어뜨려 접촉각을 측정한 결과 플라즈마 처리에 따라 감소하는 것으로 미루어 플라즈마 개질에 따라 표면극성이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 유리판 표면을 동일조건으로 플라즈마 처리한 경우는 극성의 감소만이 확인되었다. 표면자유에너지의 London 비극성 및 극성요소를 계산하는데 있어서 기하평균법과 조화평균법이 유용한 것으로 확인되었다. 평균방법에 관계없이 플라즈마 처리시간이 증가함에 따라 표면자유에너지는 증가하였다 그러나 조화평균법으로 계산된 자유에너지가 기하평균법으로 계산된 값에 비해 상대적으로 높았다. 플라즈마 표면개질은 마찰의 계면, 히스테리시스, 점성요소들에 영향을 미침으로써 마찰계수를 변화시키는 것으로 나타났다.

The objective of this paper was to evaluate the shear bond strength of luting glass ionomer cement with defferent calcium based solution treatment on dentin surface. 120 extracted human teeth were classified into 12 group based on presence of smear layer on dentin surface and type of treatment solution. Smear layer remove on dentin surface was done using 6% citric acid for 60 seconds. Five different dentin surface treatment solutions(calcium acetate, calcium carbonate, clacium chlorided, calcium hydroxide, and calcium phosphate) were evaluated in this study. After surface modification, metal ring(inner diameter : 3mm, depth : 1mm) was placed to expose the same dentin surface area and inner space was filled with luting glass ionomer cement according to the recommended procedure for stadard clinical procedure. The shear bond strength of glass ionomer cement was determined after 24 hours. SEM was used for the evaluation of the surface morphologic changes and EDAX analysis was done for determination of the change of the calcium contents of treated dentin. Follwing conclusion can be drawn : 1. In the group of the dentin surface with smear layer, the calcium carbonate solution was the most effective for the increase of the clacium content and the shear bond strength of glass ionomer cement to dentin surfaces. 2. In the group of the calcium carbonate treated dentin with msear layer, the shear bond strength was increased twice compared to the control group and cohesive failure mode was observed. 3. The shear bond strength of cement was increased significantly be the removal of smear layer using 6% citric aicd. However, additional calcium solution treatments were not effective for further bond strength increase. 4. The shear bond strength of cement was significantly improved by both of the removal of smear layer and the calcium solution treatment, and the former was more effective for bond strength improvement. 5. The smear layer removed/calcium solution treated groups showed dentinal tubule obstruction and crystal attachment in SEM evaluation. However, the shear bond strengths of these groups were not increased compared to the smear layer removed/no dentin treatment group.

The incorporation of nanoplatelets in composite and polymeric materials represents a recent and innovative approach, holding substantial promise for diverse property enhancements. This study focuses on the application of nanocomposites in the production of sports equipment, particularly soccer balls, aiming to bridge the gap between theoretical advancements and practical implications. Addressing the longstanding challenge of suboptimal interaction between carbon nanofillers and epoxy resin in epoxy composites, this research pioneers inventive solutions. Furthermore, the investigation extends into unexplored territory, examining the integration of glass fiber/epoxy composites with nanoparticles. The incorporation of nanomaterials, specifically expanded graphite and graphene, at a concentration of 25.0% by weight in both the epoxy structure and the composite with glass fibers demonstrates a marked increase in impact resistance compared to their nanomaterial-free counterparts. The research transcends laboratory experiments to explore the practical applications of nanocomposites in the design and production of sports equipment, with a particular emphasis on soccer balls. Analytical techniques such as infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy are employed to scrutinize the surface chemical structure and morphology of the epoxy nanocomposites. Additionally, an in-depth examination of the thermal, mechanical, viscoelastic, and conductive properties of these materials is conducted. Noteworthy findings include the efficacy of surface modification of carbon nanotubes in preventing accumulation and enhancing their distribution within the epoxy matrix. This optimization results in improved interfacial interactions, heightened thermal stability, superior mechanical properties, and enhanced electrical conductivity in the nanocomposite.

수지 이동 성형공정에서 섬유직조가 수지에 의해 함침될 때 발생하는 기공 또는 나쁜 젖음성은 최종 성형품의 물성 저하에 심각한 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구에서는 수지이동 성형공정에서의 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위한 기초 데이터를 제공하기 위하여, 실란 커플링제를 사용한 섬유의 표면 개질이 수지의 유동특성과 수지와 섬유 사이의 젖음성 및 기공함량에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 빔 형태의 금형을 대상으로 에폭시 수지와 평직형태의 유리섬유를 사용하여 미시적인 유동가시화 실험 및 경화실험을 수행하였다. 섬유의 표면을 개질함으로써 수지와 섬유 사이의 동적 접촉각이 감소하고 위킹속도는 증가한 것으로 나타났으며, 이러한 결과로부터 본 연구에서 사용한 화학적 표면개질이 섬유직조의 젖음성 및 미시적 흐름 거동을 향상시킬 수 있는 중요한 요인임을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 수지의 높은 온도와 낮은 침투 속도는 동적 접촉각을 감소시키기 위한 중요한 가공 변수임을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 섬유직조의 투과성은 표면을 개질하였을 경우 오히려 감소하였는데, 이는 젖음성의 향상으로 인하여 수지와 섬유 사이의 접촉시간의 증가에 기인하는 것으로 생각된다. 마지막으로 경화공정을 통해 제조된 시편의 기공 함량을 측정 비교한 결과, 표면개질은 수지이동 성형공정에서의 기공형성에도 중요한 변수로 작용하여, 수지와 섬유 사이의 젖음성을 향상시키고, 최종 성형품의 기공함량을 감소시킴을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this study, we describe the most expected behavior of cells on the modified surface and the correlation between the modified substrates and the response of cells. The physicochemical characteristics of substrates played an essential role in the adhesion and proliferation of cells. Glass and polymer substrates were modified using air plasma oxidation, and the surfaces were coated with self-assembled monolayer molecules of silanes. The PDMS substrates embedded with parallel micropatterns were used for evaluation of the effect of topologically modified substrate on cellular behaviour. BALB/3T3 fibroblast cells were cultured on different surfaces with distinct wettability and topology, and the growth rates and morphological change of cells were analyzed. Finally, we found the optimum conditions for the adhesion and proliferation of cells on the modified surface. This study will provide insight into the cell-surface interaction and contribute to tissue engineering applications.

A polyelectrolyte chain confined in a slit nanochannel exhibits a structural transition from the one in free space. In this paper, the effect of the long-range electrostatic interactions between the xanthan polyelectrolyte and the slit wall on the confined xanthan conformation is investigated via the Brownian dynamics simulation. A neutral and two negatively charged surfaces of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and glass are combined to make four kinds of slit channels with different charge characteristics: i) neutral-neutral, ii) glass-glass, iii) neutral-PDMS and iv) neutral-glass walls. Their walls are characterized by uniform surface charge densities determined from experimental data of zeta potential. Both the nonmonotonic chain size variation and the loss of long-range bond vector correlation, previously observed under confinement in the PDMS-PDMS slit, are also found in the neutral slit, demonstrating the nonelectrostatic origin of such crossover behaviors. As expected, the effect of wall charges is negligible at sufficiently high medium ionic strength of 100mM but it becomes significant in the opposite limit of 0.01mM. In the latter case, the high charge density of glass walls strengthens the effective confinement of a negatively charged polyelectrolyte and produces a xanthan structure comparable to that confined in a much narrower neutral slit. The obtained structural data suggest the possibility of controlling the structure of confined polyelectrolytes by the modification of surface charge characteristics of micro/nanofluidic devices in combination with the adjustment of the medium ionic strength.

Glass discs functionalized with alkynyl (GDA) terminated monolayers were prepared and incubated in $AgNO_3$ solution (GDA-Ag). The modified functional glass surfaces were characterized by X-ray photoelectron microscopy (XPS). The potential of GDA and GDA-Ag as antimicrobial surfaces was investigated. Anti-microbial efficacies of GDA against Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, and Candida albicans was relatively low ranging from 4.67 to 17.00%. However, the GDA-Ag was very effective and its antimicrobial efficacy ranged from 99.90 to 99.99% against the same set of microbial strains except for C. albicans where it was 95.50%. The durability of the Ag bonded to the terminal alkynyl groups was studied by placing the GDA-Ag in PBS buffer solution (pH 7.4) for two weeks. Initially, the silver release was relatively fast, with 40.05 ppb of silver released in first 24 h followed by a very slow and constant release. To study the potential of GDA-Ag for medical applications, in vitro cytotoxicity of GDA-Ag against Human Embryonic Kidney 293 (HEK293) cell lines was studied using WST-assay. The cytotoxicity of the GDA-Ag was very low (5%) and was almost comparable to the control (blank glass disc) indicating that GDA-Ag has a promising potential for medical applications.

그래핀은 다양하고 뛰어난 물성으로 그 적용 분야가 넓다. 그러나 반델반스 상호 작용으로 유기용매 내에서 쉽게 분산되지 않고 뭉쳐 있거나 포개진 상태로 존재한다. 게다가 그래핀은 화학적으로 비활성이며 크기나 모양이 넓은 분포도를 가지므로 균일한 상태 유지가 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 덩어리로 구성된 그래핀을 용매에 분산시키고 개질시키는 방법에 대해서 고찰하였다. 분산방법으로서 i) 유리비드를 이용한 물리적 분쇄. ii) 유리비드와 초음파를 이용한 처리 iii)유기용매에서의 분산 iv)드라이아이스를 이용한 개질법이 포함된다. 2.5 mm 크기의 유리비드처리는 대조구와 비교하여 36.4%의 감소율을 나타내었다. 유리비드(2.5 mm)와 초음파(225W, 10분) 병용 처리구가 76%로 입자 크기 감소효과를 나타내었다. 그래핀 입자 크기감소는 유리비드의 크기와 초음파 처리강도와 처리시간에 의존되었다. Ethyl acetate(EA)와 Isoprophyl alcohol(IPA)의 용매로 그래핀 표면을 개질시켰다. IPA용매에서 FT-IR 분석결과 CO 작용기가 높게 나타남으로 확인할 수 있었다. 한편, 드라이아이스로 그래핀 표면을 개질시킨 결과 처리 전 산소함량이 0.80%에서 처리 후 4.90%로 산소 함량 크게 증가되었다. 본 연구 결과로부터 IPA용매에 그래핀을 분산시킬 때 CO 작용기가 증가하여 장시간 분산상태 유지에 도움이 되는 것으로 판단된다.

Ag 분말 입자형태와 크기에 따른 효율성을 확인한 결과 flake, spherical 형태의 분말은 시판 회색 분말과 현출효율이 유사하였고, nAg (rod, $0.9\;{\mu}m$) 분말의 경우 다양한 잠재지문 현출효율 평가 실험에서 우수한 결과를 보였다. 그러나 1개월간 nAg 분말을 자연조건에서 방치하였을 때 분말의 산화 및 수분의 영향으로 현출효율이 낮게 확인되어 산화 및 수분 흡습 방지를 위한 연구가 제기되었다. 본 연구는 nAg 분말의 산화 및 수분 흡습의 단점을 보완하기위해 nAg 분말에 실리콘 오일을 다양한 수준으로 표면개질하여 비다공성 대상물질 표면인 유리, 플라스틱에서 현출지문의 동일한 영역에서 특징점 수, 이랑과 분말의 흡착정도, 현출지문의 contrast 등으로 nAg 분말과 표면개질 nAg 분말의 현출효율을 평가하여 유리, 플라스틱 대상물질에서 DC200 실리콘 오일 0.5%로 표면개질한 nAg 분말의 우수함과 산화 및 수분 흡습의 단점을 보완할 수 있었다.
