Water-dispersible ZnS:Mn nanocrystals were synthesized by capping the surface of the nanocrystal with O-(2-Aminoethyl)polyethylene glycol (PEG-$NH_2$, Mw = 10,000 g/mol) and O-(2-Carboxyethyl)polyethylene glycol (PEG-COOH, Mw = 10,000 g/mol) molecules. The modified PEG capped ZnS:Mn nanocrystal powders were thoroughly characterized by XRD, HR-TEM, EDXS, ICP-AES and FT-IR spectroscopy. The optical properties were also measured by UV/Vis and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopies. The PL spectra showed broad emission peaks at 600 nm with similar PL efficiencies of 7.68% (ZnS:Mn-PEG-NH2) and 9.18% (ZnS:Mn-PEG-COOH) respectively. The measured average particle sizes for the modified PEG capped ZnS:Mn nanocrystals by HR-TEM images were 5.6 nm (ZnS:Mn-PEG-NH2) and 6.4 nm (ZnS:Mn-PEG-COOH), which were also supported by Debye-Scherrer calculations. In addition, biological toxicity effects of the nanocrystals over the growth of wild type E. coli were investigated. They showed no biological toxicity to E. coli until very high concentration dosage of 1 mg/mL of the both nanocrystal samples.

Purpose: The key points of treatment of cryptotia are the elevation of invaginated ear helix and the correction of deformed cartilage. Prevention of stabilized cartilage contouring from returning to the previous state is also important. The authors carried otoplasty by modified Onizuka's method or Ohmori's method that conchal cartilage graft or high density polyethylene implant(MEDPOR$^{(R)}$) graft served as fixation after spreading posterior aspect of adhered antihelix and a splint for prevention of recurrence of cartilage deformities. The aim of this study is to reveal the availability of the high density polyethylene implant(MEDPOR$^{(R)}$) graft for the correction of cryptotia. Methods: We have repaired 17 cryptotic deformities using cartilage graft from cavum of concha(12 cases) or high density polyethylene implant(5 cases) for correction of deformed cartilage. We investigate the operative time, complications, and satisfaction of postoperative ear shape on both autogenous cartilage graft group and high density polyethylene implant graft group. Results: There was 1 case of reinvagination on autogenous cartilage graft group. Implant exposure was occurred on high density polyethylene implant graft group, as 1 case. These were statistically no differences between autogenous cartilage graft group and high density polyethylene implant graft group to the satisfaction of ear shape. Conclusion: High density polyethylene implant(MEDPOR$^{(R)}$) present an alternative to autogenous material as they allow of fibrovascular ingrowth, leading to stability of the implant and decreased infection rates. The correction of deformed cartilage by using the high density polyethylene implant(MEDPOR$^{(R)}$) is a good option for the treatment of cryptotia.

The leachability of boron in zinc borate (ZB)-modified oriented strandboard (OSB) from southern wood species was investigated in this study. The leaching experiments were conducted by exposing edge-sealed OSB samples under running water at $31^{\circ}C$ for 8, 24, 72, and 216 h. The results from leached samples were compared with those from the unleached controls. Boron leaching of the modified OSB occurred upon the initial water exposure, and the leaching rate decreased as the leaching time increased. Initial boric acid equivalent (BAE) level, wood species, and sample thickness swelling significantly influenced the leachability. There was no consistent effect of polyethylene glycol (PEG) on zinc borate leaching. The glue-line washing within OSB due to thickness swelling of the test samples under water and decomposition of the borate to form water-soluble boric acid were thought to be two possible causes for the observed leaching. The relationship between assayed BAE and leaching time followed a decaying exponential function for zinc borate treated OSB. From the boron/zinc ratio after each leaching period, boron element in ZB was more or less leachable. The material constant of the regression models allowed comparing the leachability of the modified OSB for various wood species. An unified leaching method for treated wood composite materials is needed.

The objective of this study was to investigate the methods of quality maintenance using modified atmosphere packaging with various quality preservatives at ambient and low temperatures. Ethylene(<1.0ppm) accumulated during modified atmosphere storage of Chinese cabbage using polyethylene film(60$\mu\textrm{m}$) caused quality deterioration such as yellowing and abscission. The addition of potassium permanganate reduced ethylene level and thus extended storage life of l00% at 20$^{\circ}C$ and 140% at 0$^{\circ}C$. To establish the storage conditions of minimally processed sit and vegetables, the experiment was conducted with various quality preservatives and packaging materials. Ceramic film(Zeolite 7%, 60$\mu\textrm{m}$) showed increasing storage life of 50%, reducing total microbial counts of 50% and keeping high appearance quality of minimally processed pears stored at 20$^{\circ}C$ and 0$^{\circ}C$. Minimally processed Chinese cabbage treated with l% CaCl2 at 20$^{\circ}C$, and 1% CaCl2 and 1% NaCl at 0$^{\circ}C$ has a longer storage life of 90% with good maketable quality. Treatment of 1% NaCl for cut Asian penis appeared increased storage life of 100%, decreased cut surface browning and the best overall acceptability by a sensory panel.

PURPOSES : The main purposes of this study are to examine the influences of polyethylene wax-based WMA additive on the optimum asphalt content of warm-recycled asphalt mixture based on the Marshall mix design and to evaluate performance of warm-recycled asphalt mixture containing 30% RAP with polyethylene wax-based WMA additive. METHODS: Physical and rheological properties of the residual asphalt were evaluated in terms of penetration, softening point, ductility and performance grade (PG) in order to examine the effects of polyethylene wax-based WMA additive on the residual asphalt. Also, To evaluate performance characteristics of the warm-recycled asphalt mixtures using polyethylene wax-based WMA additive along with a control hot-recycled asphalt mixture, indirect tensile strength test, modified Lottman test, dynamic immersion test, wheel tracking test and dynamic modulus test were conduced in the laboratory. RESULTS : Based on the limited laboratory test results, polyethylene wax-based WMA additive is effective to decrease mixing and compacting temperatures without compromising the volumetric characteristics of warm-recycled asphalt mixtures compared to hot-recycled asphalt mixture. Also, it doesn't affect the optimum asphalt content on recycled-asphalt mixture. All performance test results show that the performance of warm-recycled asphalt mixture using polyethylene wax-based WMA additive is similar to that of a control hot-recycled asphalt mixture. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, the performance of warm-recycled asphalt mixture using polyethylene wax-based WMA additive is comparable to hot-recycled asphalt mixture.

Poly(ethylene-co-methylacrylate)(PEMA)를 KOH, 암모니아 수용액과 반응시켜 측쇄에 -COOK, $-CONH_2$, -COOH를 갖는 변성 폴리에틸렌 수분산액을 제조하였다. 수분산액을 캐스팅하여 필름으로 제조한 후 열적, 기계적, 열접착 특성을 조사하였다. 변성 폴리에틸렌 필름은 열이력에 따라 유리전이온도는 변화하지 않았으나 용융피크는 큰 변화가 관찰 되었다. 1차 가열 시 3개의 용융피크가 관찰되었으나 2차 가열 시에는 1개의 용융 피크가 관찰되었다. 아마이드 그룹의 함량을 증가시키면 인장 모듈러스가 증가하였으며 -COOK를 증가시키면 측기 중의 70 몰% 부근에서 최저의 인장강도를 나타내었다. 변성 폴리에틸렌 필름의 열접착은 폴리에틸렌 필름 보다 낮은 약 $80^{\circ}C$부터 가능하였으며 $90^{\circ}C$에서의 열접착 강도는 측기 중 약 70 몰% -COOK 농도에서 최저값을 나타내었다.

제올라이트 분말을 첨가한 저밀도 폴리에틸렌 (LDPE) 복합 필름의 $CO_2,\;O_2,\;N_2$에 대한 기체 투과성을 조사하였다. 제올라이트 첨가 필름은 금속 양이온 혹은 계면 활성제로 표면 개질한 제올라이트 분말을 $20 wt\%$ 함유하는 LDPE 마스터배치를 제조한 후 이를 LDPE 수지와 용융혼합하여 중공필름 성형법으로 제조하였다. 최종적으로 제올라이트 분말이 0, 3, 5, 10 wt$\%$ 함유된 복합 필름을 얻었으며 이를 기체 투과도 측정에 사용하였다. 필름의 기체 투과성은 부피측정법에 기초한 기체 투과도 측정장치를 제작하여 분석하였다. 모든 경우에 있어 제올라이트 함량이 증가함에 따라 기체 투과도는 감소한 후 점차 증가하는 경향을 보여주었다. 계면 활성제로 표면 개질한 제올라이트 입자는 매트릭스 수지와의 계면 접착력을 향상시켰지만 표면 개질 이온의 종류에 따른 필름의 기체 투과 특성에는 뚜렷한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 제올라이트 첨가 필름의 경우 각 기체의 투과도에 대한 온도 의존성의 차이는 순수 LDPE 필름에 비해 다소 작게 나타났다.

Low-density polyethylene (LDPE)와 Styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS)를 넣은 개질 아스팔트 혼합물은 바인더에 중량 비로 $3{\sim}6%$ 첨가하여 여러 가지 특성을 획기적으로 향상시킨 아스팔트 재료이다. 아스팔트 재료의 개질목적은 일반 혼합물의 균 열저항과 소성 변형과 같은 전형적인 약점을 향상시키기 위해서이다. 이 재료들은 많은 장점들을 가지고 있으며 플랜트 적용이 간편하고 현장적용성이 우수한 특정을 가지고 있다. 여러 해 동안의 경험을 통해 습식 개질 아스팔트와 건식 아스팔트 혼합물이 현장에서 실용화할 수 있게 발전되었다. 본 연구에서는 이를 종합적으로 평가하여 그 장단점을 일반 아스팔트 혼합물과 비교 평가하여 LDPE, SBS 개질 아스팔트 혼합물의 특성을 체계적으로 밝히는 것을 본 연구의 목적으로 한다.
