  • The recent extensive research of one-dimensional (1D) nanostructures such as nanowires (NWs) and nanotubes (NTs) has been the driving force to fabricate new kinds of nanoscale devices in electronics, optics and bioengineering. We attempt to produce silicon oxide nanowires (SiOxNWs) in a simple way without complicate deposition process, gaseous Si containing precursors, or starting material of $SiO_2$. Nickel (Ni) nanoparticles (NPs) were applied on Si wafer and thermally treated in a furnace. The temperature in the furnace was kept in the ranges between 900 and $1,100^{\circ}C$ and a mixture of nitrogen ($N_2$) and hydrogen ($H_2$) flowed through the furnace. The SiOxNWs had widths ranging from 100 to 200 nm with length extending up to ~10 ${\mu}m$ and their structure was amorphous. Ni NPs were acted as catalysts. Since there were no other Si materials introduced into the furnace, the Si wafer was the only Si sources for the growth of SiOxNWs. When the Si wafer with deposition of Ni NPs was heated, the liquid Ni-Si alloy droplets were formed. The droplets as the nucleation sites induce an initiation of the growth of SiOxNWs and absorb oxygen easily. As the droplets became supersaturated, the SiOxNWs were grown, by the reaction between Si and O and continuously dissolving Si and O onto NPs. Photoluminescence (PL) showed that blue emission spectrum was centered at the wavelength of 450 nm (2.76 eV). The details of growth mechanism of SiOxNWs and the effect of Ni NPs on the formation of SiOxNWs will be presented.

  • We describe the precision synthesis schemes of siloxane-containing polymers, i.e., the control of their molecular weight, stereoregularity, and higher-order structures. First, we found a new catalytic dehydrocoupling reaction of water with bis(dimethylsilyl)benzene to give poly(phenylene-disiloxane). Together with this reaction, we applied hetero-condensations to the synthesis of thermally stable poly(arylene-siloxane)s. The dehydrocoupling reaction was applied to the synthesis of syndiotactic poly(methylphenylsiloxane) and poly(silsesquioxane)s, which we also prepared by hydrolysis and deaminative condensation reactions. We discuss the tendency for loop formation to occur in the synthesis of poly(silsesquioxane) by hydrolysis, and provide comments on the design of functionality of the polymers produced. By taking advantage of the low energy barrier to rotation in the silicon-oxygen bond, we designed selective oxygen-permeable membrane materials and liquid crystalline materials. The low surface free energy of siloxane-containing systems allows surface modification of a blend film and the design of holographic grating materials.

  • 라텍스 블렌딩 기법을 이용하여 폴리스티렌(PS)/다중벽 탄소나노튜브(MWCNT) 나노복합재료를 제조하여 나노튜브 길이에 따른 나노복합재료의 유변학적 특성을 고찰하였다. 나노복합재료 제조에 사용된 단분산 PS 입자는 무유화제 유화중합으로 제조하였고, MWCNT는 불순물 제거와 분산성 향상을 위해 표면개질 과정을 거친 후 사용하였다. 최종적인 나노복합재료는 단분산 PS 입자와 개질한 MWCNT를 초음파 교반조에서 분산시킨 후 동결건조 과정을 거쳐 제조하였다. 나노복합재료의 MWCNT 함량과 나노튜브 길이에 따른 유변학적 특성은 소진폭 진동 전단유동을 부과시켜 평가하였다. 본 연구에서 고찰한 PS/MWCNT 나노복합재료는 MWCNT의 함량이 증가할수록, 나노튜브 길이가 길수록 유변물성 향상 효과가 뚜렷하였다. 이는 MWCNT 함량이 증가할수록 나노복합재료의 유변학적 특성이 액체적 특성에서 점차 고체적 특성으로 변화하기 때문이며, 나노튜브 길이가 길수록 네트워크 구조를 달성하는 임계 농도가 작아지기 때문인 것으로 판단된다.

  • A pregnane steroid, 3α-hydroxy-pregn-7-ene-6,20-dione (1), was isolated from a Hydractinia-associated Cladosporium sphaerospermum SW67 by repetitive column chromatographic separation and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) purification. The planar structure of 1 was elucidated from the analysis of the spectroscopic data (1D and 2D NMR spectra) and LC-MS data. The absolute configuration of 1 was determined by interpretation of ROESY spectrum of 1, together with the comparison of reported spectroscopic values in previous studies. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of the identification of the pregnane scaffold from C. sphaerospermum, a natural source. Compound 1 was evaluated for its effects on lipid metabolism and adipogenesis during adipocyte maturation and showed that compound 1 substantially inhibited lipid accumulation compared to the control. Consistently, the expression of the adipocyte marker gene (Adipsin) was reduced upon incubation with 1. Further, we evaluated the effects of 1 on lipid metabolism by measuring the transcription of lipolytic and lipogenic genes. The expression of the lipolytic gene ATGL was significantly elevated upon exposure to 1 during adipogenesis, whereas the expression of lipogenic genes FASN and SREBP1 was significantly reduced upon treatment with 1. Thus, our findings provide experimental evidence that the steroid derived from Hydractinia-associated C. sphaerospermum SW67 is a potential therapeutic agent for obesity.

  • An unbleached hardwood kraft pulp was bleached in vitro with partially purified manganese peroxidase (MnP) from the fungus Phanerochaete sordida YK-624 without the addition of MnSO$_4$ in the presence of oxalate, malonate or gluconate known as manganese chelator, When the pulp was treated without the addition of MnSO$_4$, the pulp brightness increased by about 10 points in the presence of 2 mM oxalate, but the brightness did not significantly increase in the presence of 50 mM malonate. Residual MnP activity decreased faster during the bleaching with MnP without MnSO$_4$ in the presence of malonate than in the presence of oxalate. Oxalate reduced MnO$_2$ which already existed in the pulp or was produced from $Mn^{2+}$ by oxidation with MnP and thus supplied $Mn^{2+}$ to the MnP system. Thus, bleaching of hardwood kraft pulp with MnP, using manganese originally existing in the pulp, became possible in the presence of oxalate, a good manganese chelator and reducing reagent. Properties of partially purified MnPs from liquid cultures of white rot fungi, Ganoderma sp. YK-505, Phanerochaete sordida YK-624 and Phanerochaete chrysosporium were compared. MnP from Ganoderma sp. YK-505 was superior to MnPs from P. sordida YK-624 and P. chrysosporium in stabilities against high temperature and high concentration of $H_2O$$_2$. The MnP from Ganoderma sp. YK-505 differed in pH-activity profile from other MnPs. These data suggest that MnP from Ganoderma sp. YK-505 has different structure from those of other fungi. Bleaching of hardwood kraft pulp using the MnP from ganoderma sp. YK-505 is now in progress.

  • 본 논문에서는 아미노산염의 일종인 글리신산나트륨(sodium glycinate) 수용액을 이산화탄소(CO$_2$) 흡수제로 사용하여 이산화탄소 분리회수 특성평가 실험을 수행하였다. 흡수제와 이산화탄소의 기-액 흡수평형 실험을 통하여 흡수제 농도 20 wt%와 30 wt%에서 글리신산나트륨과 상용 흡수제인 MEA의 분압에 따른 몰부하비(mol loading ratio)를 측정하여 이산화탄소 흡수능을 평가하였다. 또한, 기-액 흡수평형 결과를 바탕으로 2 t-CO$_2$/day 용량의 파일럿플랜트 실험을 수행한 결과, 이산화탄소 탈거가 MEA에 비하여 용이하게 일어나지 않아 상대적으로 낮은 이산화탄소 제거율을 얻었다. 이는 글리신산나트륨 고유의 입체구조에 기인하는 것으로 판단된다. 본 논문은 이산화탄소 흡수제로 아미노산염 계열 흡수제를 이용하여 실제 공정에 적용한 우리나라 최초의 연구결과로서 아미노산염의 흡수제로서의 가능성 파악에 큰 의의가 있다고 할 수 있다.

  • Amorphization and crystallization behaviors of $Ti_{50}Cu_{50}Ni_{20}Al_{10}$ powders during high-energy ball milling and subsequent heat treatment were studied. Full amorphization obtained after milling for 30 h was confirmed by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope. The morphology of powders prepared using different milling times was observed by field-emission scanning electron microscope. The powders developed a fine, layered, homogeneous structure with prolonged milling. The crystallization behavior showed that the glass transition, $T_g$, onset crystallization, $T_x$, and super cooled liquid range ${\Delta}T=T_x-T_g$ were 691,771 and 80 K, respectively. The isothermal transformation kinetics was analyzed by the John-Mehn-Avrami equation. The Avrami exponent was close to 2.5, which corresponds to the transformation process with a diffusion-controlled type at nearly constant nucleation rate. The activation energy of crystallization for the alloy in the isothermal annealing process calculated using an Arrhenius plot was 345 kJ/mol.

  • Injectable gel composed of egg phosphatidylcholine (egg PC), hyaluronate (HA) and water was formulated for local drug delivery. The lamellar liquid crystalline structure of the egg PC/water system did not change by adding HA in the formulation. However, egg PC/HA/water gel was more resistant to erosion than the egg PC/water gel. The egg PC/HA/water and egg PC/water gels containing model drugs, tetracycline and sudan IV were prepared to perform in vitro and in vivo drug release experiments. In vitro release of tetracycline was sustained in the gel type formulations. The release rate of hydrophobic sudan IV was extremely slow. More than 99% of sudan IV remained inside the gel after 5 days. In vivo release of drugs from the air pouch model in Balb/c mice shows that lipophilic sudan IV remained for more than 10 days whereas tetracycline remained for 1 day in the pouch. The compatibility of the gels was also examined by histopathology. The gels did not cause any adverse inflammatory effect in the air pouch.
