IT-SOFC(중저온형 고체산화물 연료전지)의 공기극으로 적합한 PSCF3737의 물질 특성을 파악하고 그 특성을 이용하여 낮은 ASR을 갖기 위한 소결 온도 및 두께 최적화에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 분말 사이즈 및 상형성을 고려할 때 GNP 방법으로 합성된 분말의 하소 온도는 $1000^{\circ}C$가 적합함을 알 수 있었다. 산소 분압에 따른 ASR 변화 실험을 통하여 PSCF3737의 저항 성분을 전극 자체의 특성과 관련된 중간 주파수 대역(${\sim}10^2Hz$)과 산소의 확산에 영향 받는 낮은 주파수 대역(${\sim}10^{-1}Hz$) 2가지로 분류할 수 있었다. 공기극의 특성 실험을 통하여 소결 온도는 $1200^{\circ}C$가 가장 적합하며 공기극의 두께는 2번 스크린 프린팅 된 $27\;{\mu}m$가 가장 적합함을 알 수 있었다. 이를 토대로 EIS 측정을 하면 $700^{\circ}C$에서 $0.115\;{\Omega}cm^2$의 낮은 ASR값을 얻을 수 있었다.

In the flip chip interconnection on organic substrates using eutectic Pb/Sn solder bumps highly reliable Under Bump Metallurgy (UBM) is required to maintain adhesion and solder wettability. Various UBM systems such as 1$\mu$m Al/0.2$\mu$m Pd/1$\mu$m Cu, laid under eutectic Pb/Sn solder were investigated with regard to their interfacial reactions and adhesion proper-ties. The effects of numbers of solder reflow and aging time on the growth of intermetallic compounds (IMCs) and on the solder ball shear strength were investigated. Good ball shear strength was obtained with 1$\mu$m Al/0.2$\mu$m Ti/5$\mu$m Cu and 1$\mu$m Al/0.2$\mu$m ni/1$\mu$m Cu even after 4 solder reflows or 7 day aging at 15$0^{\circ}C$. In contrast 1$\mu$m Al/0.2$\mu$m Ti/1$\mu$m Cu and 1$\mu$mAl/0.2$\mu$m Pd/1$\mu$m 쳐 show poor ball shear strength. The decrease of the shear strength was mainly due to the direct contact between solder and nonwettable metal such as Ti and Al resulting in a delamination. In this case thin 1$\mu$m Cu and 0.2$\mu$m Pd diffusion barrier layer were completely consumed by Cu-Sn and pd-Sn reaction.

Novel multiblock copolymers, based on segmented sulfonated hydrophilic-hydrophobic blocks, were synthesized and investigated for their application as proton exchange membranes. A series of segmented sulfonated poly(arylene ether sulfone)-b-polyimide multiblock copolymers, with various block lengths, were synthesized via the coupling reaction between the terminal amine moieties on the hydrophilic blocks and naphthalene anhydride functionalized hydrophobic blocks. Successful imidization reactions required a mixed solvent system, comprised of NMP and m-cresol, in the presence of catalysts. Proton conductivity measurements revealed that the proton conductivity improved with increasing hydrophilic and hydrophobic block lengths. The morphological structure of the multiblock copolymers was investigated using tapping mode atomic force microscopy (TM-AFM). The AFM images of the copolymers demonstrated well-defined nanophase separated morphologies, with the changes in the block length having a pronounced effect on the phase separated morphologies of the system. The self diffusion coefficient of water, as measured by $^1H$ NMR, provided a better understanding of the transport process. Thus, the block copolymers showed higher values than Nafion, and comparable proton conductivities in liquid water, as well as under partially hydrated conditions at $80^{\circ}C$. The new materials are strong candidates for use in PEM systems.

The effectiveness of fly ash-, quicklime-, and quicklime-fly ash-based stabilization/solidification(S/S) in chromium(Cr) contaminated soils was investigated using modified semi-dynamic leaching tests. Artificial soil samples composed of kaolinite or montmorillonite contaminated with chromium nitrate(4000 mg $Cr^{3+}\;kg^{-1}$ of solid) were prepared and then subjected to S/S treatment using quicklime, fly ash, or quick lime-fly ash. The effectiveness of the treatment was evaluated by assessing the cumulative fraction of leached $Cr^{3+}$ as well as, by computing the effective diffusivity ($D_e$) and the leachability index (LX) of the treated samples. The reduction in $Cr^{3+}$ release for the untreated samples was more pronounced in the presence of montmorillonite, which was attributed to sorption. Treatment with quicklime, fly ash, or quick lime-fly ash was significantly effective in reducing $Cr^{3+}$ release most probably due to the formation of pozzolanic reaction products and $Cr(OH)_3$ precipitation. The most effective treatment was observed in montmorillonite-sand soil samples treated with quicklime-fly ash (99.8% removal). The mean $D_e$ decreased significantly and the mean LX was greater than 9 for all treated samples, indicating that the treated soils were acceptable for "controlled utilization". The mechanism controlling $Cr^{3+}$ leaching from all treated samples during the first 5 days appeared to be diffusion.

Flue gas recirculation (FGR) is widely adopted to control NO emission in combustion systems. Recirculated flue gas decreases flame temperature and reaction rate, resulting in the decrease in thermal NO production. Recently, it has been demonstrated that the recirculated flue gas in fuel stream, that is, the fuel induced recirculation (FIR), could enhance much improved reduction in NO per unit mass of recirculated gas, as compared to conventional FGR in air. In the present study, the effect of dilution methods in air and fuel sides on NO reduction has been investigated numerically by using $N_2$ and $CO_2$ as diluent gases to simulate flue gases. Counterflow diffusion flames were studied in conjunction with the laminar flamelet model of turbulent flames. Results showed that $CO_2$ dilution was more effective in NO reduction because of large temperature drop due to the larger specific heat of $CO_2$ compared to $N_2$. Fuel dilution was more effective in reducing NO emission than air dilution when the same recirculation ratio of dilution gas was used by the increase in the nozzle exit velocity, thereby the stretch rate, with dilution gas added to fuel side.

In the present work, Diels-Alder reaction of cyclopentadiene with ethylacrylate has been carried out by using two types of mesoporous solid acid catalysts (Al-MCM-41, Al-MCM-48) with different pore structures. The specific topology of Al-MCM-48 (cubic Ia3d structure composed of two independent 3-D channel systems) exhibit higher activity and stereo-control than those of Al-MCM-41 (hexagonal packing of 1-D channels). The physical properties of Al-MCM-48 catalyst, such as high accessibility of reactants to the acid sites, spatial confinement in the nanoscopic reactors, and 3-D channel network structure that are effective adsorption and diffusion of reactants, play a crucial role in the present study.

We report a nanometer scale mark formation using a $PtO_x$ thin film or a TbFeCo rare-earth transition metal film and the mechanism. The multi-layer samples($ZnS-SiO_2/PtOx/ZNS-SiO_2,\;ZnS-SiO_2/TbFeCo/ZnS-SiO_2$) were prepared with a magnetron sputtering method on a polycarbonate or a glass substrate. By laser irradiation of approximately a few nanoseconds, nanometer scale marks were fabricated. During the fabrication process, the thin films were thermally reacted or inter-diffused during the laser irradiation. 75 nm bubble marks in the PtOx multi-layer sample by an approximately 4-ns laser irradiation. Inside the bubble mark, Pt particles with a few nanometer sizes are distributed. The $50{\sim}100$ nm bubble marks in the TbFeCo multi-layer sample by a few nanosecond laser irradiations. We will report the detail structure of the samples, the bubble mark formation process and the mechanism.

Porous alginate-based hydrogel beads (porous ABH) have been prepared through a facile and sustainable template-assisted method using nano-calcium carbonate and nano-$CaCO_3$ as pore-directing agent for the efficient capture of methylene blue (MB). The materials were characterized by various techniques. The sorption capacities of ABH towards MB were compared with pure sodium alginate (ABH-1:0) in batch and fixed-bed column adsorption studies. The obtained adsorbent (ABH-1:3) has a higher BET surface area and a smaller average pore diameter. The maximum adsorption capacity of ABH-1:3 obtained from Langmuir model was as high as $1,426.0mg\;g^{-1}$. The kinetics strictly followed pseudo-second order rate equation and the adsorption reaction was effectively facilitated, approximately 50 minutes to achieve adsorption equilibrium, which was significantly shorter than that of ABH-1:0. The thermodynamic parameters revealed that the adsorption was spontaneous and exothermic. Thomas model fitted well with the breakthrough curves and could describe the dynamic behavior of the column. More significantly, the uptake capacity of ABH-1:3 was still higher than 75% of the maximum adsorption capacity even after ten cycles, indicating that this novel adsorbent can be a promising adsorptive material for removal of MB from aqueous solution under batch and continuous systems.

본 연구에서는 핫스템핑 소재로 사용되는 보론합금강판 22MnB5의 단일 겹치기 점용접에서 용접부의 강도 향상을 위한 최적화를 수행하였다. 최적화 과정은 다구찌 실험계획법에 의해 행해졌으며 공정변수는 전류, 가압력 및 통전시간으로 선정하였고, 잡음인자로서 핫스템핑 시 소재의 가열온도와 유지시간을 고려하였다. 가열조건에 따라 22MnB5 표면의 알루미늄 도금층과 모재 간의 확산반응에 의해 화합물층 두께에 산포가 발생하였으며 이러한 산포는 너겟의 형성에 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있었다. 한편 용접부의 인장전단강도를 목적함수로 하였을 때, 이러한 가열조건에 강건한 최적의 용접 조건은 전류 8kA, 가압력 4kN, 통전시간 18cycle로 선정되었다. 최적 조건의 검증 결과 용접부의 인장전단강도 는 32kN으로서 요구되는 규격인 23kN보다 크게 증가되었다.

본 연구에서는 화장품 원료로서 삼지구엽초의 응용가능성을 확인하기 위해 항균 효과와 항산화 효과를 확인하였다. 피부상재균에 대한 disc diffusion assay에서 높은 항균 효과를 나타낸 분획-균에 대해 최소저해농도를 측정하였다. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis), Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes)에 대한 에틸아세테이트 분획의 항균 활성과, S. aureus에 대한 50% 에탄올 분획의 항균 활성은 대표적인 방부제인 methyl paraben보다 우수한 것으로 확인되었다. DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl)를 이용한 라디칼 소거 활성에서는 삼지구엽초의 세 분획 모두 대표적 항산화제인 (+)-${\alpha}$-토코페롤보다 낮은 것으로 나타났다. $Fe^{3+}-EDTA/H_2O_2$ 계를 이용해 다양한 ROS에 대한 총 항산화 활성($OSC_{50}$)을 실험한 결과, 50% 에탄올 추출물($OSC_{50}=2.46{\pm}0.06{\mu}g/ml$)과 아글리콘 분획($OSC_{50}=1.45{\pm}0.02{\mu}g/ml$)은 비교 물질인 L-ascorbic acid($OSC_{50}=1.50{\pm}0.85{\mu}g/ml$)과 유사한 높은 활성을 보여주었다. 광증감 반응을 이용한 세포 보호 효과(${\tau}_{50}$) 실험에서 50% 에탄올 추출물(${\tau}_{50}=37.0{\pm}0.3$ min)은 비교 물질인 (+)-${\alpha}$-토코페롤(${\tau}_{50}=38.0{\pm}1.8$ min)과 유사한 값을 보여주었다. 특히 아글리콘 분획의 ${\tau}_{50}$은 $165.9{\pm}7.2$ min으로 비교 물질인 (+)-${\alpha}$-토코페롤에 비해 4배가 넘는 높은 세포 보호 효과를 나타내었다. 이러한 결과들을 종합해보았을 때, 삼지구엽초 추출물은 항균 또는 항산화 활성을 갖는 화장품 원료로서 응용가능성이 높은 것으로 확인하였다.
