Bases have been used in order to prevent the leakage of bleachingagents through dentinal tubules in bleached teeth. But the proximal surfaces where the actual resorption takes place havenot been protected. The purpose of this study was to compare the conventional basing method with the basing of the labial and two proximal surfaces to the cementoenamel junction. The bases were placed after conventional root canal treatment. Group I: 2mm thickness bases were placed to the level of labial cementoenamel junction line. Group II : 2mm thickness bases were placed to the level of all c-e J lines including cervical area. Control : No bases were placed. After placement of sodium perborate and 30% hydrogen peroxide mixtureinto the teeth, the changes of pH were measured. The results were as follows. 1. Group II showed smaller leakage of bleaching agents and was statistically significant difference compared to Group I.(p<0.05) 2. Group I showed no statistically significant difference compared to the control group. (p>0.05) 3. There were no significant among the upper and lower teeth groups in each group and between the groups.(p>0.05). According to the above results, it was considered that basing of the labial and proximal surfaces to the cementoenamel junction can reduce the leakage of bleaching agents during bleaching procedure of pulplessteeth.

Chemical accidents caused by transport vehicles account for 20% of all chemical accidents every year, but there are difficulties in the accident-response process due to repeated situations where the impact assessment information is unknown. In this study, we developed a calculation table and formula for predicting the range of damage for chlorine and hydrogen fluoride, which have a high domestic usage, high risk of accidents, and high accident frequency in the last 7 years. The calculation table is based on the leakage rate, wind speed, and temperature, and the calculation formula was derived using R software for special situations where it is difficult to apply the calculation table. The calculation table and formula could be used on site by related organizations to obtain important information for decision making, which could help in minimizing damage from chemical accidents, setting separation distances, and deciding to evacuate residents.

AlN thin films were fabricated by reactive sputtering for the application of MIS devices with Al/AlN/Si structure. It has investigated the surface morphology change, I-V characteristics, C-V characteristics, and chemical composition of AlN films with the intriducing time of hydrogen on the fixed deposition condition(RF power: 150W, sputtering pressure: 5mTorr, flow rate ratio of $Ar/N_2=1$, hydrogen concentration: 5%). By addition of the hydrogen the deposition rate decreased drastically whereas the surface morphology changed little. It has been found from the analysis of I-V and C-V characteristics curves that the films deposited with hydrogen addition in initial stage had lower leakage current density, lower flat band voltage and hystersis profile when compared with those with hydrogen addition in last stage. The oxygen concentration in AlN films decreased with addition of hydrogen gas, which suggesting a profitable role in the insulation and C-V characteristics of AlN films.

In realizing a hydrogen society, it is important to secure the safety of the hydrogen refueling station, which is the facility where consumers can easily meet hydrogen. The hydrogen refueling station consists of compressed gas facilities that store high-pressure hydrogen, and there is a risk that the high-pressure compressed gas facility will rupture due to a fire explosion due to hydrogen leakage in the facility or the influence of surrounding fires. Accordingly, the Korea Gas Safety Corporation is making every effort to find out risk factors from the installation stage, reflect them in the design, and secure safety through legal inspection. In this study, a TNT explosion demonstration test using a protection wall was conducted to confirm the safety effect of the protection wall installed at the hydrogen refueling station, and the empirical test results were compared and verified using FLACS-CFD, a CFD program. As a result of the empirical test and CFD analysis, it was confirmed that the effect of reducing the explosion over-pressure at the rear end of the protection wall decreased from 50% to up to 90% depending on the location, but the effect decreased when it exceeded a certain distance. The results of the empirical test and computer analysis for verifying the safety of the protection wall will be used in proposals for optimizing the protection wall standards in the future.

This study was performed to elucidate the effects of Gokajisilsosiho-Tang(GJST) on the lactic dehydrogenase(LDH) release, cell viability and activity, lipid peroxidation, DNA synthesis and the changes of total protein synthesis and GSH changes in vivo and in vitro in rat cultured hepatocytes from hydrogen peroxide$(H_2O_2)$-induced injury. The GJST extract had not an effect on cytotoxicity in all experimental results. The treatment of GJST extract of $160{\mu}g/ml$, $320{\mu}g/ml$ showed the significant effect to decrease LDH leakage induced by t-BHP in cultured rat hepatocytes. The higher concentration of GJST extract than $160{\mu}g/ml$, showed the inhibitory effect on decreasing cell viability induced by t-BHP. The treatment of t-BHP to rat cultured hepatocytes resulted in a concentration dependent increase in TBARS, in the presence of GJST extract the production of TBARS induced by hydrogen peroxide was inhibited concentration dependently, significantly inhibited at $80{\mu}g/ml$ of GJST extract and above. The GJST extract simutaneously present with t-BHP prevented the loss of total protein and GSH in a concentration dependent manner. These results suggested that GJST extract may play a hepatoprotective role in oxidative damage induced by hydrogen peroxide and a therapeutic potential of inhibiting liver injury.

A safety assessment was performed through the process analysis of hydrogen station. The purpose of this study provides basic information for the standard establishment about hydrogen stations. The processes of hydrogen stations were classified by four steps (process of manufacture, compression, storage, charge). FMEA (Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) method was applied to evaluate safety. Each risk element is following; S (severity), O (occurrence), D (detection). And the priority of order was decided by using RPN (Risk Priority Number) value multiplying three factors. Scenarios were generated based on FMEA results. And consequence analysis was practiced using PHAST program. In the result of C.A, jet fire and explosion were shown as accident types. In case of leakage of feed line in PSA process, concentration of CO gas is considered to prevent CO gas poisoning when the raw material that can product CO gas was used.

Ball valve has been widely used in the field of high-pressure gas pipeline as an important component because of its low flow resistance and good leakage performance. The present paper focuses on the flow nature at the downstream of the ball valve used for gas pipelines according to valve opening rates. Steady 3-D RANS equations, SC/Tetra, have been introduced to analyze the flow characteristics inside the ball valve. Numerical boundary conditions at the inlet and outlet of the valve system are imposed by mass flow-rate and pressure, respectively. Velocity distributions obtained by numerical simulation are compared with respect to the valve opening rates of 30, 50, and 70%. Cavity distributions, asymmetry flow velocity and the flow stabilization point at each opening rate are also compared. When the valve opening rates are 30 and 50%, the flow stabilization requires the sufficient length of 10D or more due to the influence of the recirculation flow at the downstream of the valve.

In general, lots of containers including various dangerous materials are transported to the port located in big cities such as Busan where massive residents live. Thus, it's really important how to make the emergency response for the leak accidents of dangerous materials and evaluate the direct or indirect damages to adjacent areas. In this study, in order to make reasonable emergency plans, CA (Consequence Analysis) is employed after selecting a key hazardous and noxious material, hydrogen fluroide. This material accounts for the third largest portion of cargo volume among all dangerous materials and can cause a huge damage in case of leakages. As a case study, Busan North port is selected as a test port since the portion of dangerous materials is higher than that of other ports in Busan. It is assumed that 1 ton of hydrogen fluoride is spilled at Busan North port. CA is performed to assess the impact of this accident. Throughout CA, the ERPG-2 range of a leak accident can be evaluated and this result can be used for decision making tools for mitigating the impact of a leak accident. To mitigate the damage of this accident, suitable a protective equipment and resident evacuation procedures should be prepared. Finally, this study can provide a systematic approach to make the emergency plan for reducing economical and personal losses.

Plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) allows low temperature processing and so it is widely used, but it causes instability of devices due to serious amount of impurities within the film. In this paper, electrical and chemical characteristics of the PECVD oxynitride film formed by different N$_{2}$O to N$_{2}$O+NH$_{3}$ gas ratio is studied. It has been found that hydrogen concentration of PECVD oxynitride film was decreased from 4.25*10$^{22}$ [cm$^{-2}$ ] to 1.18*10$^{21}$ [cm$^{-2}$ ] according to the increase of N$_{2}$O gas. It was also found that PECVD oxynitride films have low trap density in the oxide and interface in comparison with PECVD nitroxide films, and has higher refractive index and capacitance than oxide films. In particular, oxynitride film formed in gas ratio of N$_{2}$O/(N$_{2}$O+NH$_{3}$)= 0.88 shows increased capacitance and decreased leakage current due to small portion of hydrogen in oxide and the accumulation of nitrogen about 4[atm.%] at the interface.
