For the potential applications in large-area OLED lightings, hydrogen fuel cells, and secondary batteries, we have performed an intermittent coating of high-viscosity polydimethylsiloxane using roll-to-roll slot die coater. During intermittent coating, dead zones inevitably appear where the thickness of PDMS patch films becomes non-uniform, especially at the leading/trailing edge. To reduce it, we have coated the PDMS patches by varying the process parameters such as the installation angle of the slot die head, coating speed, and patch interval. It is observed that the PDMS solution flows down and thus the thickness profile is non-uniform for horizonal intermittent coating, whereas the PDMS solution remaining on the head lip causes an increase in the PDMS thickness at the leading/trailing edges for vertical intermittent coating when the coating velocity is low. As the coating speed increases, however, the dead zone is shown to be reduced. It is addressed that the overall dead zone (the dead zone at the leading edge + the dead zone at the trailing edge) is smaller with horizontal intermittent coating than with vertical intermittent coating.

본 연구에서는 알카라인 연료전지 환원극 가스확산층에 내열화학성이 우수한 초발수 성능을 부여하기 위하여 PDMS 코팅 공정을 최적화하였다. 성격이 상이한 두 개의 상용 가스확산층을 선택하였으며, 소재의 열적 안정성을 검토하여 코팅 온도를 최적화하고, PDMS 점도를 제어하여 코팅 균일성을 확보하고자 하였다. PDMS 전구체의 점도와 관계없이 $200^{\circ}C$ 부근에서 코팅하게 되면 모든 확산층 표면에서 높은 초발수 성능을 나타내었다. 가혹실험 조건에서 초발수 성능변화를 측정한 결과 1000 CS PDMS를 이용하여 28BC 가스확산층에 코팅한 경우가 가장 높은 내구성을 나타내었다.

부탄올을 투과증발 공정으로 분리하기 위하여 복합공정에 의하여 투과증발막을 제조하였다. 상업용 poly(dime-thylsiloxane) (PDMS) 막을 plasma 처리시키거나, polysulfone, poly(ether imide) 막을 지지체로 사용하여 plasma 처리 및 PDMS 코팅의 복합공정을 적용하였다. 헥산계열과 실란계열 유기 화합물을 사용하여 PDMS막을 plasma 처리하였을 경우 막 표면의 소수성을 증가시켜서 부탄을 선택도가 12.56까지 향상되었다. 반면에 투과량은 막 표면의 소수성 증대와 free volume의 변화로 인해 $1.15kg/m^2{\cdot}hr$까지 감소되어 선택도와 반대의 성향을 나타내었다. 막의 소수성이 증가함에 따라 접촉각과 상대적 sorption 비가 증가하였고, 부탄을 선택도도 향상되었다. PDMS 코팅 용액에서 prepolymer의 함량이 높을수록 부탄올 선택도가 증가하였다. PDMS 코팅과 plasma 처리 공정의 순서에 따른 영향을 조사하였다. 부탄올과 노르말 헥산으로 plasma 처리할 경우 plasma처리, PDMS 코팅 순으로 제조된 막의 분리 성능이 우수하였고 hexamethyldisilane과 hex-amethyldisilazane을 사용한 경우에는 역순으로 제조된 막의 분리 성능이 더 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

We report on the preparation of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) coated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) followed by their dispersion in various solvents. To disperse MWNTs without acids of surfactants, which are the commonly used methods, hydrophobic PDMS coating was selected. It was determined that the PDMS coated MWNTs are more dispersed in diverse solvents such as dimethyl formamide (DMF) and acetone than bare MWNTs. In case of DMF solvent, dispersion of MWNT was improved by 40 % upon PDMS-coating of MWNT, which was confirmed by UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy. In this work, the PDMS coated MWNTs dispersed solution was also used for the fabrication of film, which is conductive, transparent and superhydrophobic because of the reduced aggregation and increased water repellency of MWNTs.

본 연구는 적은 비용으로 분석 장치 없이 질병 진단 및 경과를 모니터링할 수 있는 종이-기반 분석 장치(paper-based analytical device, PAD)를 제작하기 위해 polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 블레이드 코팅 방법을 제안하였다. PAD 디자인은 레이저 커팅 기술로 쉽게 몰드에 적용할 수 있으며, 제작된 몰드로 블레이드 코팅을 수행하여 완전한 소수성 장벽 형성에 필요한 조건을 확립하였다. 코팅 조건인 잉크의 두께와 종이와의 접촉시간에 따라 PDMS 소수성 장벽의 구조와 친수성 채널의 크기 변화를 분석하여 안정적으로 소수성 장벽을 형성할 수 있는 조건을 최적화하였다. 최적화된 방법을 바탕으로 PAD를 제작하여 특별한 분석기기 없이 단백질, 당, 메탈이온을 검출하여 바이오센서에 응용가능함을 증명하였다.

PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) 복합막을 통한 기체분리 공정에서 다공성 지지체의 투과저항과 PDMS 코팅두께가 에틸렌/질소의 분리성능(투과도, 선택도)에 미치는 영향에 관하여 조사하였다. 이를 위해 Pinnau 등이 제시한 복합막 투과저항 모델이론식〔1〕이 사용되었다. 지지체의 투과도 또는 투과저항은 PES (polyethersulfone)/NMP(N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone) 고분자 용액의 농도를 변화시키면서 조절하였다. 복합막은 PES 지지체 위에 n-hexane에 녹인 2액형 PDMS 용액을 spin coater를 사용해 코팅하여 제조하였다. 선택층의 코팅 두께는 spin coater의 회전속도를 통해 조절하였다. 투과기체 분리특성은 단일기체 투과도 측정 장치를 통해 조사하였으며, 지지체 및 복합막의 단면구조 및 코팅두께는 SEM (scanning electron microscope)을 통하여 확인하였다 얻어진 실험결과는 복합막의 투과저항모델의 이론식과 매우 잘 일치함을 확인 할 수 있었다. 에틸렌/질소의 분리에 있어 PDMS 막 고유의 선택도를 얻기 위해서는 지지체의 투과저항과 코팅층의 최적화가 중요함을 확인하였다.

We prepared hydrophobic PDMS-coated porous silica as pre-concentration adsorbent for chemical warfare agents (CWAs). Since CWAs can be harmful to human even with a small amount, detecting low-concentration CWAs has been attracting attention in defense development. Porous silica is one of the promising candidates for CWAs pre-concentration adsorbent since it is thermally stable and its surface area is sufficiently high. A drawback of silica is that adsorption of CWAs can be significantly reduced due to competitive adsorption with water molecule in air since silica is quite hydrophilic. In order to solve this problem, hydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) thin film was deposited on silica. Adsorption and desorption of chemical warfare agent (CWA) simulants (Dimethylmethylphosphonate, DMMP and Dipropylene Glycol Methyl Ether, DPGEM) on bare and PDMS-coated silica were studied using temperature programed desorption (TPD) with and without co-exposing of water vapor. Without exposure of water vapor, desorbed amount of DMMP from PDMS-coated silica was twice larger than that from bare silica. When the samples were exposed to DMMP and water vapor at the same time, no DMMP was desorbed from bare silica due to competitive adsorption with water. On the other hand, desorbed DMMP was detected from PDMS-coated silica with reduced amount compared to that from the sample without water vapor exposure. Adsorption and desorption of DPGME with and without water vapor exposing was also investigated. In case of bare silica, all the adsorbed DPGME was decomposed during the heating process whereas molecular DPGME was observed on PDMS-coated silica. In summary, we showed that hydrophobic PDMS-coating can enhance the adsorption selectivity toward DMMP under humid condition and PDMS-coating also can have positive effect on molecular desorption of DPGME. Therefore we propose PDMS-coated silica could be an adequate adsorbent for CWAs pre-concentration under practical condition.

Aim of our study is finding adsorbents suitable for pre-concentration of chemical warfare agents (CWAs). We considered Tenax, bare silica and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-coated silica as adsorbents for dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) and dipropylene glycol methyl ether (DPGME). Tenax showed lower thermal stability, and therefore, desorption of CWA simulants and decomposition of Tenax took place simultaneously. Silica-based adsorbents showed higher thermal stabilities than Tenax. A drawback of silica was that adsorption of CWA simulant (DMMP) was significantly reduced by pre-treatment of the adsorbents with humid air. In the case of PDMS-coated silica, influence of humidity for CWA simulant adsorption was less pronounced due to the hydrophobic nature of PDMS-coating. We propose that PDMS-coated silica can be of potential importance as adsorbent of CWAs for their pre-concentration, which can facilitate detection of these CWAs.

ZnO particles with a size range of 50-150 nm were coated with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with a thin film thickness of 3-4 nm using a simple ambient-pressure chemical vapor deposition methods. Surfaces consisting of the PDMS-coated ZnO nanoparticles were found to be superhydrophobic with a water contact angle higher than $160^{\circ}$. The superhydrophobicity was sustained in the presence of UV light. Photocatalytic activity and photocorrosion of ZnO were nearly completely quenched in the presence of PDMS coating. It is suggested that our PDMS-coating can be of potential interest for the application of ZnO in UV protection agents and energy and electronic devices.

We report a simple method for preparing hydrophobic mesoporous silica and its use as a pre-concentrating agent of gas analytes. Hydrophobic mesoporous silica was prepared by coating PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) thin layer on commercial mesoporous silica with thermal deposition method in a sealed chamber. By using this method, we were able to coat PDMS layer on inner-walls of pores larger than 15 nm. Also, contact angle measured on a surface consisting of PDMS-coated mesoporous silica exceeded $150^{\circ}$, implying that the surface has high water repellency. Pre-concentration ability of PDMS-coated mesoporous silica and baremesoporous silica was tested under dry and humid conditions. Adsorption and molecular desorption of gas analytes was much enhanced by PDMS-coating on mesoporous silica under both dry and humid conditions. Therefore we suggest that PDMS-coated mesoporous silica can be an efficient pre-concentration agent in order to enhance sensitivity of various detectors.
