  • The transparent conductive film was prepared by bar coating method of poly (3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) and poly (sodium 4-stylenesulfonate) grafted multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT-PSS) nanocomposites solution on the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film. In this case, multi-wall carbon nanotubes was treated by chemical methods to obtain water soluble MWNT-PSS and then blending with PEDOT. The non-covalent bonding of polymer to the MWNT surface was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and Transmission electro microscope (TEM) investigation also showed a polymer-wrapped MWNT structure. Furthermore, the electrical, transmission properties of the transparent conductive film were investigated and compared with control samples are raw PEDOT films.

  • Porous nanosilica (PNS) has been identified as a potential candidate for controlled drug delivery. However, unmodified PNS-based carriers exhibited an initial release of loaded bioactive agents, which may limit their potential clinical applications. In this study, the surface of PNS was functionalized with adamantylamine (ADA) via disulfide bonds (-S-S-), PNS-S-S-ADA, which was then modified with cyclodextrin (CD)-heparin (Hep) (CD-Hep), PNS-S-S-CDH, for redox triggered rhodamine B (RhB) delivery. The obtained samples were then characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance ($^{1}H\;NMR$), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and transmission electron microscope (TEM). These results showed that PNS-S-S-CDH was successfully formed with spherical shape and average diameter of $45.64{\pm}2.33nm$. In addition, RhB was relatively encapsulated in the PNS-S-S-CDH (RhB@PNS-S-S-CDH) and slowly released up to 3 days. The release of RhB, in particular, was triggered due to the cleavage of -S-S- in the presence of dithiothreitol (DTT). It might be anticipated that the modified PNS can be used as redox-responsive drug delivery system in cancer therapy.

  • In order to activate the characteristics of charcoals in fiber systems, this study was carried out to experiment with the particle size from two micrometers to ten micrometers of charcoal powders on silk fabrics. The results obtained were as follows; The silk fabrics were dyed with gray color by charcoals effectively. The K/S value, that is indicative of the dye affinity, became higher as the increase of dyeing temperature, dyeing time, and dyeing concentration. Te dyeing effects were the highest with 50%(o.w.f.) of charcoals at $100^{\circ}C$ for 120 minutes in this experiments, It was observed the surfaces of silk fibers were mainly adcorbed with charcoal powders of the particle size from two micrometers to four micrometers by scanning electron microscope. Dyed silk fabrics showed comparatively low fastness to the fade of launding, the stain of the treatment of perspirations, and the strain of water fastness test, but good fastness to the stran of laundering, te drycleaning, the fade of treatment of perspirations, and the fade of water fastness test. In connection with the functional properties of dyed fabrics, the deodorizations were drastically improved, and the far-infrared emissions improved highly, and also the antibacterials were comparatively good.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the body temperature peripheral circulation with vibration shoes in healthy 10 adults. The magnetic vibration device with non-electric power was mounted in the midsole of the vibration shoes. The experiment was divided into two groups: vibration shoes and no vibration shoes. Subjects were randomly selected and measured body surface temperature by digital infrared thermal imaging (DITI) and non-invasive capillaries change by nailfold microscope (NFM). After walking in a treadmill for 15 minutes at 4.0 km/h speed wearing normal shoes or vibration shoes, DITI and NFM were measured. The walking with vibration shoes showed the body surface temperature shift from the proximal to the distal. In addition, the diameter of the nailfold capillary in the vibration shoes group was thicker and clearer due to the increased blood flow than that of the no vibration shoes group. The vibration shoes are easy to apply to anyone who can walk because it can give vibration stimulation by walking without additional time, cost, and effort in daily life. Further studies are needed to explain the physiological effects of vibration frequency and intensity on the long-term perspective of target subjects resulting from vascular dysfunction.

  • In order to obtain a better understanding of the ageing process of the field composite insulators, it is necessary to explore a quantitative-valuation method for the aging state evaluation. And the linear relationship between volume resistivity and temperature is proposed. In this paper, the composite insulators with different lengths of operating lives from two manufacturers were tested. The relationship between trap characteristics and volume resistivity-temperature characteristics were analyzed based on Thermal Stimulated Current (TSC), volume resistivity-temperature test, Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Furthermore, the application of trap characteristics in the quantitative evaluation of aging state of composite insulators was discussed. The results showed that there was a general negative correlation between the relative variation ratio of trap charges and the volume resistivity-temperature characteristics. Meanwhile, the physicochemical properties would change with the aging time, which would result in the increasing of electron traps. Combined with the TSC and volume resistivity test results, the trap characteristic thresholds which indicated the serious age of the composite insulators had been proposed.

  • Both $Al_2O_3$ and $SiO_2$ nanopowders were ball-milled to break large agglomerates$(500nm\sim10{\mu}m$). To improve the dispersion of ball-milled nanoparticles in transformer oil, surface modification was performed with oleic acid(OA). The modified nanoparticles were examined by the particle size analyzer, electron microscope, Infrared spectroscopy and stability analyser. Particle Size distributions were measured for ball-milled particles, and the results were compared with the size distribution of primary particles. FTIR results indicated that hydrophobicity of modified nanoparticles was due to the chemical reaction between hydroxyl groups of particle surface and oleic acid. The dispersion stability of surface-modified nanoparticles was quite good in transformer oil.

  • Behaviors of $TiO_2$-based photocatalysts with different surface structures on the removal of gas-phase toluene with and without UV irradiation are reported. P-25(Degussa) $TiO_2$ powder dispersed in distilled water by sonication was deposited on the transparent glasses and then dried. Some of the samples were further annealed in oven for 1 hr. These samples obtained before and after annealing were characterized by Brunauer- Emmett-Teller (BET), Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectrometry, respectively. Based on BET and TEM data, no significant structural change upon annealing could be identified. However, the sample without annealing showed a significantly higher ability for removing toluene both in the presence and absence of the UV light. XPS and FT-IR results clearly revealed that the population of the OH groups on the surface of $TiO_2$ was higher for the sample without annealing, indicating that the OH groups can enhance the adsorption capacity and photocatalytic activity of $TiO_2$ for the removal of the gas-phase toluene.

  • In order to improve the adhesion properties of copper, MPS(3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane) organic film were employed. The plasma pretreatment in pure He or $He/O_{2}$ mixed gas environment greatly increased adhesion force. Adhesion force was measured by scratch test with nano indenter. Microstructures and surface roughness were observed with scanning electron microscope(SEM). The characteristics of MPS layer for pretreatment were studied with flourier transform infrared spectroscope(FT-IR) and contact angle tester. The heighest adhesion was achieved in the specimen pretreated with mixed plasma and NPS coating, which was 56mN. Other specimen showed lower value by $20{\%}$ to $30{\%}$. The roughness of substrate was not affected by the bonding strength of copper plating.
