Poly vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene (PVdF-HFP) membrane were prepared by the electrospinning technique. We had applied a DLC coating process and then the surface of the membrane and the contact angle change was investigated. Electrospun fibrous PVdF-HFP membrane surface became to wrinkled shape by Ar plasma treatment and treatment conditions. The wrinkled surface of PVdF-HFP membrane became super-hydrophilic. However, after DLC coating process, it became super-hydrophobic. The resulting surfaces were characterized by water contact angle measurement, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). Resultantly it was recognized that the wettability characteristics of the membrane surfaces depended on the chemical composition and surface morphology.

The purpose of this study is to observe the morphological changes of prepared dentin surfaces by 5 dentin conditioning agents. Freshly extracted 48 healthy human molars were used in this study. The teeth were stored at $4^{\circ}C$ physiologic saline solution befor experiment. The teeth were cross-sectioned to expose dentin below 3.0mm at the cusp tip and above 2.0mm at the cemento-enamel junction with Crystal Cutter (MC411 D, Maruto Co., Japan). The specimens were then divided into 12 groups. The sectioned dentin surfaces in group 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11 were prepared with No. 301 diamond point under air-water spray and those in group 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 were prepared with No. 700 carbide bur. The prepared dentin surfaces were conditioned with Nitric acid, Citric acid, Poly acrylic acid, EDTA, and Phosphoric acid. All the specimens were gold-coated with Eiko ion coater (Eiko-engineering Co.) and observed in Hitachi S-2300 Scanning electron microscope at 20 KV. The following results from this study were obtained; 1. The dentinal smear layers prepared with diamond point were compacted than those prepared with the carbide bur. 2. The dentinal smear layers prepared with diamond point or carbide bur were thick but after treatment of dentin conditioning agents smear layers were removed almost. 3. Irrespective of the uses of the diamond point or the carbide bur the morphological changes of dentin surfaces treated with the same conditioning agents were similar. 4. Treatment of nitric acid and EDTA was a little effect in removing dentinal smear layer. 5. Treatment of citric acid and phosphoric acid removed the smear layer very effectively and showed dissolution of peritubular dentin and opening of dentinal tubules.

Mirror surface machining for large area flattening in the display field has a problem such as a tool wear and a increase in machining time due to large area machining. It should be studied to decrease machining time and tool wear. In this paper, multi-tool machining method using a PCD tool and a SCD tool was applied in order to decrease machining time and tool wear. Machining characteristics (cutting force, machined surface and surface roughness) of PCD tool and SCD tool were evaluated in order to apply PCD tool to flattening machining. Based on basic experiments, the PCD/SCD multi-tool method and the SCD single-tool method were compared through surface roughness and machining time for appllying large area mold machining.

The mechanism of micro machining of reacted layer on silicon surface were proposed. The depth of reacted layer and the change of mechanical property were measured and analyzed. Depth of hydrated layer which is created on the surface of silicon by potassium hydrate was analyzed with SEM and XPS. The decrease of the micro victors hardness of silicon surface was shown with the increase of the concentration of potassium hydrate and the change of the dynamic friction coefficient by chemical reacted layer was measured due to the readiness of machining. The experiment of groove machining was done with 3-axis machine with constant load. With chemical mechanical micro machining the surface crack and burrs generated by both brittle and ductile micro machining were diminished. And the surface profile and groove depth was shown in accordance with the machining speed and reaction time with SEM and AFM.
