As an attempt to replacing petroleum-based chemicals with bio-based ones, synthesis of furfural from biomass-derived xylose attracts much attention in recent days. Conventionally, furfural from xylose has been produced via the utilization of highly corrosive, toxic, and environmentally unfriendly mineral acids such as sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid. In this study, microwave-assisted biphasic reaction process in the presence of novel bio-based heterogeneous acid catalysts was developed for the eco-benign and effective synthesis of furfural from xylose. The microwave was irradiated for reaction acceleration and a biphasic system consisting of $H_2O$ : MIBK (1 : 2) was designed for continuous extraction of furfural into the organic phase in order to reduce the undesired side products formed by decomposition/condensation/oligomerization in the acidic aqueous phase. Moreover, sulfonated amorphous carbonaceous materials were prepared from wood powder, the most abundant lignocellulosic biomass. The prepared catalysts were characterized by FT-IR, XPS, BET, elemental analysis and they were used as bio-based heterogeneous acid catalysts for the dehydration of xylose into furfural more effectively. For further optimization, the effect of temperature, reaction time, water/organic solvent ratio, and substrate/catalyst ratio on the xylose conversion and furfural yield were investigated and 100% conversion of xylose and 74% yield of furfural was achieved within 5 h at $180^{\circ}C$. The bio-based heterogeneous acid catalysts could be used three times without any significant loss of activity. This greener protocol provides highly selective conversion of xylose to furfural as well as facile isolation of product and bio-based heterogeneous acid catalysts can alternate the environmentally-burdened mineral acids.

본 연구는 가구류를 구성하는 주요 재료의 열적조건에 따른 반응특성과 화염전파해석에 필요한 열해리 물성을 제공하기 위해 열중량분석을 수행하였다. 실험대상 시편은 가구류에 널리 적용되는 MDF 판재와 코팅재, 합성피혁과 쿠션재 등이며 가열율 $10^{\circ}C/min$, 최대 온도 $600^{\circ}C$까지 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과 MDF 소재의 경우 $324^{\circ}C$에서 피크 반응을 나타냈었으며 MDF 코팅재의 경우 초기 피크반응온도가 $270{\sim}280^{\circ}C$로 감소하였다. 합성피혁과 폼 소재의 경우 재료를 구성하는 폴리머의 종류에 따라 기준온도와 기준 반응율이 차이를 보였으나 기준온도는 $270^{\circ}C$와 $420^{\circ}C$ 정도로 비교적 유사한 경향을 나타냈다. Lyon 등이 제시한 방법에 의해 반응상수와 활성화 에너지를 산정하기 위해 시편의 기준 온도와 기준 반응율을 제시하였으며 이러한 기초 물성연구를 통해 화염전파특성을 이해함과 동시에 화재해석의 신뢰성을 향상시키는데 기여하고자 한다.

In order to investigate the decay process of wood treated with preservative, waterproofing agent and their compound systems, a full-cell process was applied to impregnate the sapwood of poplar (Populus cathay) at paraffin wax emulsion concentrations of 0.5% and 2.0%, Copper Azole (CA) concentrations of 0.3% and 0.5%, and their four compound systems, respectively. Leaching tests and laboratory decay resistance against the white-rot fungus Corious versicolor (L.) Murrill for treated wood were carried out according to the America Standard E11-06 and China Standard GB/T 13942.1-2009. At certain time intervals during the decay test, samples were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction technique (XRD) to investigate the time-dependent changes of chemical components and crystalline structure, thus clarifying the decay mechanisms. The results suggested that white-rot fungi degrade hemicellulose and lignin in the wood cell wall first, followed by a simultaneous degradation of polysaccharides and lignin. Besides, CA could not only slower the decomposition of both hemicellulose and lignin, but also reduce the degradation amount of hemicellulose. However, paraffin wax emulsion at high concentration had a negative effect on the impregnation of CA for the compound system treated wood.

A disposable light exposure detector kit has been developed by UV curing of a hydrogel material. The devised light exposure detector kit consisted of light sensitive structures, bottom plate, character sheet and sticky back plate. A light exposure detector kit has a serial light sensitive structures that contain various light sensitive dyes such as rhodamine and fluorescein. The light sensitive structure composed of UV curable hydrogel polymer material as a supporing material and photosensitive dye in a certain concentration. The fabrication procedure of the ligh exposure detector kit is very simple and fast due to UV curing procedure of a photopolymerizable hydrogel material such as poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether acrylate (PEGMEA) and poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) with a photosensitive dye. By the proposed fabrication method, various size and shape of a light exposure detector kit could be fabricated using a flexible elastomer mold. Due to a fast and inexpensive fabrication method, the light exposure detector kit could be use a single use for various industrial applications. According to light irradation, the light sensitive structure on a light exposure detector kit could be lose its color by decomposition of a photosensitive dye chemical in the structure. Thus the amount of the exposed light on a substrate could easily be recognised by changing color or transparency of the structure.

이 연구는 9학년 과학교과서 물질변화에서의 규칙성 단원에 제시되어 있는 실험의 분석과 small-scale chemistry (SSC)를 적용한 실험을 개발하고자 하는 것이다. 연구를 위하여 9학년 9종 과학교과서의 물질변화에서의 규칙성 단원에 제시되어 있는 앙금생성, 물의 전기분해, 과산화수소수의 분해 실험들을 분석하고, 13명의 과학교사들에게 과학교과서의 실험들을 수행하게 하여 문제점과 개선해야할 사항들을 추출하였다. 개선해야할 사항들을 바탕으로 SSC를 적용하여 개발한 실험들을 19명의 예비교사들에게 과학교과서의 실험과 함께 수행하게 한 후 SSC를 적용한 실험의 장점과 단점을 조사하였다. 연구 결과, 요오드화납 앙금생성 실험과 Hoffman식 물의 전기분해 실험, 그리고 이산화망간을 촉매로 사용하는 과산화수소수의 분해 실험이 9학년 과학교과서에 가장 많이 제시되어 있었다. 과학교과서의 실험들에서 개선해야할 사항들로는 시약의 소모량, 실험시간, 실험장치 규모 등이었다. SSC를 적용하여 개발한 실험들의 장점은 적은 양의 시약 사용으로 폐액 처리의 용이성과 실험의 안전성을 높여주며, 실험시간의 단축과 재현성이 있는 실험결과들을 얻을 수 있는 것 등이었다. 반면에 단점은 적은 양의 시약 사용으로 실험관찰에서 다소간의 어려움과 성취감의 감소, 작은 규모의 실험 기구 사용의 미숙함 등이었다. 그러나 SSC를 적용하여 개발한 실험들을 9학년 과학실험으로 활용한다면, 적은 양의 시약을 사용하여 간편하게 재현성이 있는 실험을 이론수업과 병행하여 실시할 수 있어, 학생들이 물질변화에서의 규칙성에 대한 과학적인 개념을 형성하는데 도움을 줄 것으로 기대된다.

This paper presents a framework how to estimate crack driving forces in terms of crack-tip opening displacement and J-integral for mismatched dissimilar joints with interface cracks. The mismatch in elastic, thermal, and plastic hardening properties is not considered, but the mismatch in plastic yield strengths is emphasized here. The main outcome of the present work is that the existing methods to estimate crack driving forces for homogeneous materials can be used with slight modification. Such modification includes (i) mismatch- corrected limit load solutions, and (ii) evaluating the contribution of each material in dissimilar joints to the total crack driving force, which depends on the strength mismatch of the dissimilar joints.

Aluminium titanate (Al₂TiO5) with an excellent thermal shock resistant and a low the expansion coefficient was obtained by solid solution with MgO, SiO₂, and ZrO₂ in the Al₂TiO5 lattice or in the grain boundary solution through electrofusion in an arc furnace. However, these materials have low mechanical strength due to the presence of microcracks developed by a large difference in thermal expansion coefficients along crystallographic axes. Pure Al₂TiO5 tends to decompose into α-Al₂O₃ and TiO₂-rutile in the temperature range of 750-1300℃ that rendered it apparently useless for industrial applications. Several thermal shock tests were performed: Long therm thermal annealing test at 1100℃ for 100h; and water quenching from 950 to room temperature (RT). Cyclic thermal expansion coefficients up to 1500℃ before and after decomposition tests was also measured using a dilatometer, changes in the microstructure, thermal expansion coefficients, Young's modulus and strengths were determined. The role of microcracks in relation to thermal shock resistance and thermal expansion coefficient is discussed.

In oil-filled equipment such as transformers, partial discharge or local overheating will precede a final shutdown. Accompanied with such problems is a decomposition of insulating material into gases, which are dissolved into the transformer oil. The gases dissolved in oil can be separated with some membranes based on the differences in permeability of membranes to different gases. This paper discuss the permeability characteristics of several membranes for separation hydrogen gas in oil. With result of this paper, it may become possible to detect fault-related gases from transformer oil and predict incipient failures in the future.

A weathered residual soil is a soil-like material derived from the in situ weathering and decomposition of rock which has not been transported from its original location. Undisturbed sampling of residual soils is extremely difficult, which has an important effect on investigating the strength and compression characteristics. Thus, a special undisturbed sampling device (direct shear box with shoe) was developed and undisturbed samples were successfully obtained for direct shear tests, Direct shear testing was conducted under unsoaked and soaked condition. As a result, the shear strength of soaked samples was less than that of unsoaked samples, and it was verified that direct shearing of undisturbed samples can evaluate reasonably the shear strength and the slope stability.

Powder metallurgy applied rapid heating to sintering starting year 1900. Since 1970 the study has intensified. Now rapid sintering concepts embrace a spectrum of options ranging from dunk cycles to microwave, induction, exothermic, electric field, and spark approaches. Most of the efforts are targeting reduced microstructure coarsening during sintering, although reduced material decomposition is another common goal. The efforts are impressive for simple shapes and success metrics such a small grain size after densification. Several barriers need to be removed prior to application in powder metallurgy commercial sintering. Rapid heating research needs to focus on significant property gains, accurate product dimensions, and lower costs. So far each property gain obtained with rapid heating is matched by traditional sintering and composition changes. Several examples are cited to show the goals for the next round of innovations.
