Polymer-metal complexed membranes were prepared by solvent evaporation method using ethylcellulose, platinum(II)acetylacetonate, and rhodium(III)acetylacetonate. The various composition of metal salt(0.3-4.0 wt%) were employed to obtain the optimum performance of final membrane. EC-metal complexed membranes were characterized by FTIR and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) to observe the morphology and the performance of oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and methane gases was tested. It was shown that the metal salts enhanced the permeability of all gases without decrease of selectivity. However, it was found that Pt had more effects on the permeability of oxygen and nitrogen gases while Rh had more effects on the permeability of carbon dioxide and methane gases. EC-Pt complexed membrane(Pt 1.0 wt%) even showed the enhanced selectivity of oxygen/nitrogen(37%) due to the affinity characteristic of Pt to oxygen.

Three formulations were used to prepare the cellulose-based edible films consisting of hydrocolloid and lipids; film A made by coating method, films B and C by emulsion method, which were formed in a thin layer glass plate and then dried. Films A, B and C were all approximately 0.03 mm thick with 1-3% moisture, 59-68% lipid, and almost whitish color. Film A was better in tensile strength, and lipids affected water vapor permeability on three films, in which films A and B did not differ significantly. Water vapor permeability of film A did not change but those of films B and C decreased significantly after storage for 8 weeks at $-15^{\circ}C$. Oxygen transmission rate and oxygen permeability of films A and C did not differ and changed significantly after 8-week storage at $-15^{\circ}C$. Under scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation on the structural characteristics of each film, film A indicated relatively uniform and smooth surface coatings of beeswax, while films B and C had individual lipid crystals and could be discerned. As a result, film A was better than films B and C in respect of physical properties, but the selection of useful film depended upon which physical property was more functional. Moreover, it was desirable in some cases for using films B and C because of their easiness of preparation and cold storage durability. It will be further needed to investigate how to formulate films B and C to have more unique surface characteristics, and to reduce water vapor and oxygen transmission rates.

Tests have been carried out on four concrete containing different levels of silica fume to measure their permeability coefficient using water and oxygen, chloride ion. The total cementitious content was 351kg/㎥, and the water/cementitious materials ratio was 0.55. The results show that a dramatic reduction in permeability of concrete containing silica fume occurs due to formation of a discontinuous macro-pore system which inhibits flow. Porosity estimates from mercury-intrusion porosimetry are used to develop an explanations for the water and air permeability reduction. And, results of the rapid permeability test showed that the resistance of concrete to the penetration of chloride ions increases significantly as a contents of silica-fume is increased. The current intensity passing through the concrete containing silica fume is presented from 664C to 2166C.

This research is conducted to analyze the compatibility of used monomers and produce the high functional hydrogel ophthalmic polymer containing silane and nanoparticles. VTMS (vinyltrimethoxysilane), TAVS [Triacetoxy(vinyl)silane] and cobalt oxide nanoparticles are used as additives for the basic combination of SilM (silicone monomer), MMA (methyl methacrylate) and MA (methyl acrylate). Also, the materials are copolymerized with EGDMA (ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) as cross-linking agent, AIBN (thermal polymerization initiator) as the initiator. It is judged that the lenses of all combinations are optically excellent and thus have good compatibility. Measurement of the optical and physical characteristics of the manufactured hydrophilic ophthalmic polymer are different in each case. Especially for TAVS, the addition of cobalt oxide nanoparticles increases the oxygen permeability. These materials are considered to create synergy, so they can be used in functional hydrogel ophthalmic lenses.

Soft magnetic silicon steels containing up to 6.5wt% of silicon were prepared by powder metallurgical processing and their magnetic properties were evaluated. The magnetic properties of P/M silicon steels are similarly affected by the silicon addition as those of conventional ingot processed ones but are also significantly affected by density and interstitial impurities particularly oxygen content. Magnetic flux density, $B_{10}$ and coercivity, Hc, tends to decrease with silicon content whereas maximum permeability, ${\mu}m$, decreases first and then increases rapidly above 5 wt% silicon. Increasing density also increases magnetic flux density and maximum permeability but reduces coereivity. The latter two properties are, however, affected more strongly with oxygen content.

$La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Ti_{0.3}Fe_{0.7}O_{3-{\delta}}$(LSTF) coated $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$(BSCF) membranes which has properties of high oxygen permeability and stability to $CO_2$ were applied to a bench scale apparatus to conduct oxygen permeation experiments. Also, the membranes of the laboratory and the bench scale device were divided into three regions according to the temperature gradient in the membrane reactor for comparative analysis. While oxygen permeation experiment were conducted up to $900^{\circ}C$, temperature dependence of Cr deposition was investigated. As a result, it was confirmed that the oxygen permeability was $2.37ml/min{\cdot}cm^2$, which was significantly lower than $3.79ml/min{\cdot}cm^2$ measured in the laboratory apparatus. It was found through XRD and SEM/EDS analysis that the decrease in oxygen permeability was originated from the deposition of gaseous Cr on the membrane surface released from the alloy material of the housing. In particular, a large amount of Cr was found in the medium temperature region.

Polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS) containing [N, N'-bis (3- (salicylidene amino) propyl) amine Co(II)] (Co(saldpt)) as a fixed oxygen carrier was synthesized. UV-visible spectra of the membrane demonstrated that Co(saldpt) binded molecular oxygen specificaaly and reversibly. From time lag method experiment, it was found that both oxygen permeability and diffusibity increase with decreasing upstream pressure, while solubility maintain nearly constant. The maximum oxygen permeability and oxygen selectivity over nitrogen obtained was 18.6 barrer and 4, respectively, at 25 mmHg and $40^{\circ}C$ from the the PDMS membrane containing 1 wt% of Co(saldpt). Facilitation behavior was explained in terms of the dual sorption model.

The following results were drawn from the experiment conducted to see the effect of ginseng alcohol extract on the mitochondrial oxidation of the rat liver. 1) Mitochondrial oxygen consumption increased in the low concentration and decreased in the high concentration of ginseng alcohol extract. 2) When the mitochondria was destroyed mechanically or was swollen by low concentration of $AgNO_3$, mitochondrial oxygen consumption was inhibited in all concentration of ginseng alcohol extract. 3) Oxygen consumption of intact mitochondria increased in the low concentration but decreased in the high concentration of sodium deoxycholate. 4) Ginseng alcohol extract inhibited cytochrome oxidase activities of liver mitochondria. These results suggest that low concentration of ginseng alcohol extract activates the oxygen consumption of liver mitochondria by increasing the permeability of the mitochondrial membrane and high concentration of the extract inhibit the oxygen consumption by inhibiting the enzyme activity related to respiration.

A cellulose acetate membrane containing silver nitrate was prepared by gelatinizing in water at $2^{\circ}C$ after evaporating solvent from the casting solution on a glass plate. Permeation experiments for oxygen and nitrogen were conducted in the ranges of temperature, $5-40^{\circ}C$ and pressure difference, $1-5kg/cm^2$ in order to investigate the effects of temperature and pressure difference on permeation characteristics of the membrane. When the evaporation time was increased, the permeability of oxygen decreased but the separation factor of oxygen against nitrogen increased since a more dense layer was formed on the membrane surface. When the silver nitrate was added, the permeation flux was doubled and the separation factor was improved from 3.0 to 3.3. This implies that silver nitrate acts as an oxygen carrier in the membrane.
