최근 항균 성능이 뛰어나면서도 인체에 유해하지 않은 나노 사이즈 은 입자를 이용한 항균 제품 개발 및 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있음에 따라, 나노 사이즈의 은 입자를 보다 쉬운 방법으로 균일하게 제조하고, 그 특성을 평가하는데 많은 관심이 집중되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 은 이온의 광환원을 통해 나노 은 입자를 $15{\sim}20\;nm$ 크기로 균일하게 제조한 뒤, 나노 은 입자의 농도, pH, 온도가 변화함에 따른 항균 특성을 살펴보고 이를 정량적으로 평가, 은 이온의 항균 특성과 비교하였다. 또한 주사 전자 현미경과 투과 전자 현미경을 통하여 나노 은 입자의 미생물 불활성화 특성을 은 이온의 미생물 불활성화 특성과 비교하였다. 주요 결과로는 나노 은 입자의 항균 효과는 동일한 은 농도를 기준으로 하였을 때 은 이온의 항균 효과에 비하여 약 20배 정도 적은 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 나노 은 입자의 농도, 온도가 높을수록 항균 성능은 향상됨을 알 수 있었으며 이는 은 이온의 실험 결과와 일치한다. 그러나 나노 은 입자의 항균 성능은 높은 pH에서 향상된 반면, 은 이온의 경우 pH 변화에 따른 항균 성능 변화가 관찰되지 않았다. 나노 은 입자와 은 이온에 의해 불활성화된 미생물을 주사 전자 현미경과 투과 전자 현미경으로 관찰한 결과, 나노 은 입자는 미생물 세포막을 크게 손상시키는 반면, 은 이온은 그렇지 않았다. 은 이온의 경우 은 이온이 미생물 안으로 흡수되어 세포질막을 손상시켜 미생물을 불활성화 시키는 것으로 알 수 있었다.

Among the various nanoparticles reported for commercial applications, considerable interest has been generated by the use of silver nanoparticles. Owning to extremely small size, silver nanoparticles exhibit enhanced properties when compared with the bulk material. In this research work, silver nanoparticles were prepared by the reduction of silver salt with a reducing agent by a solvothermal method using different solvent mediums such as ethanol, hexane, toluene and acetone with water. The prepared silver nanoparticles were characterized systematically by X-ray diffraction (XRD), particle size analysis and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results revealed the formation of pure silver phase and nano-sized particles. Among the different solvent mediums used, the silver nanoparticles prepared by hexane and water as solvent mixture resulted in very low particle size.

본 연구에서는 나노 콜로이드 실리카에 은을 코팅하기 위하여 직접 은을 코팅하는 방법과 실리카입자 표면개질 후 은을 코팅하는 방법 등의 2가지 방법이 시도되었다. 실리카에 대한 은의 질량비율과 환원제 주입량 등이 은의 코팅에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 콜로이드 실리카에 직접 은을 코팅한 경우보다 MPTS (3-Mercaptopropyl trimethoxysilane)와 APTS (3-Aminopropyl trimethoxysilane)로 표면개질한 후 은을 코팅한 경우가 높은 은(Ag) 코팅율과 우수한 항균효과를 나타내는 것이 관찰되었다.

We present a method for chemically reducing silver alkylcarbamate complex with hydrazine to synthesize silver nanocolloids in an organic solvent using polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as the stabilizer. To determine the optimal conditions for preparing stable silver colloids of controlled size and shape, the silver 2-ethylhexylcarbamate (Ag-EHCB) complex, PVP, hydrazine, and 2-propanol solvent concentrations in the reaction mixture were varied. The initial colloid has a mean particle diameter of 5-80 nm, and it exhibits an absorption band with various shapes in the UV region with a maximum near 420 nm. UV-vis spectroscopy, TEM, and X-ray diffraction techniques were used to investigate the formation and growth process of the metallic silver nanocolloids.

The effect of silver particles on the sliding behavior of bearing steels was studied experimentally by using a ball-on-disk tribometer. Tests were performed in ambient air, dry air and vacuum. Disks of AISI 52100 were silver-coated by a thermal evaporation method, and the effects of silver particle transfer on friction were analyzed. In order to understand further the mechanism of silver particle transfer and its effect on friction and wear, pre-compressed silver particles were artificially introduced into the friction interface and the results were compared to those of silver-coated specimens. Results showed that the introduced silver particles produced transfer layers and resulted in low friction. It also showed that this low friction is closely related to the characteristic behavior of transfer layers. Shakedown occurred at the friction interface affected the friction and wear.

This study focuses on the imported silver goods from Japan and investigates the backgrounds of importing, trade items, and the amount of the exchange. This study also investigates the effects of the importing silver on Chosun society. A large amount of silver was imported from Japan and the amount of imported silver reached its maximum in Chosun Dynasty. Japan, on the other hand, imported a large quantity of cotton cloth from Chosun Dynasty. Silver was imported mainly because of the sumptuous moods among the royal family and the aristocracy. The moods were spread out to general people who made them wish for the luxurious and expensive chinese goods. To buy the luxurious goods, a lot of silver was imported from Japan. Importing a large quantity of silver fostered the sumptuous moods and also caused the price increase in the Chosun society. The order of the society became worse because of the individual trades of rich merchants who were closely connected to high officials.

A new functionally gradient metal coating method using an atomic mixing technique was developed. In this work the effect of silver atomic mixing on the tribological characteristics of silver$.$ films. has been investigated experimentally. Atomic mixing was implemented by using the, bombardment .of accelerated Ar ions during the thermal evaporation coating process of silver films. Experiments were performed in dry conditions using a ball-on-disk test rig at a load range of 19.6 mN - 17.64 N and a sliding velocity of 20 mm/sec. Results showed that the life of functionally gradient silver coating was enhanced about 100 times more than that of thermally evaporated silver coating and 2 times more than that of IBAD silver coating. The functionally gradient. film also showed low friction and wear compared to those of the evaporated silver and

Underwear is laundered frequently and most of them is made of cotton, but a cotton fiber is more difficult to modify than a synthetic fiber. We have attempted to determine the optimum conditions necessary whereby the lowest concentration of silver solution is needed to produce the greatest antimicrobial properties of cotton fabrics. For this study, colloidal silver was made by electrolysis. The concentration of colloidal silver was increased by increasing the area of the silver plates submerged in the water, the water temperature, the water hardness and the flow time of the water per 1l. However, the colloidal silver concentration was decreased by extending a space between the silver plates and increasing the water velocity. Cotton fabrics treated in the washing machine with 1.3 ppm colloidal silver solution for 10 minutes had effective microbial properties and an unperceivable reduction of reflectance.

Silver nanoparticles have been synthesized by liquid-phase and alcohol reduction methods. Silver-doped silica-complex nanoparticles were prepared using a sol-gel process. The formation, structure, morphology, and particle size of the nanoparticles have been studied using several techniques. Silver nanoparticles of size of 30-40 nm were formed successfully by alcohol reduction. TEM images show that both the concentration and the molecular weight of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) considerably affect the size of the emerging silver nanoparticles. The number of silver-doped silica-complex particles increased by a mercapto-group treatment that showed a narrower size distribution than that of silica treated with amino groups. The silver/polyester and silver-doped silica/polyester masterbatch chips showed excellent antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.

We confirm that when A-type zeolite supporting silver lone is placed in ion-exchanged distilled water, silver ions is eluted and eluted silver ions generates hydroxyl-radical (.OH) and hydro-radical (.H) continuously, the amount of those is proportion to the silver-ion concentration. Hydroxyl-radical is not generated by super-oxide anion-radical (.O2) but by directly dissolved water. To know such a above discussed mechanism, we prepare A-type zeolite supporting silver ions, and measure the amount of the eluted silver tons by atomic absorption spectroscopy and the generated radical by ESR The radical generated by A-type zeolite supporting silver ions is discussed in the application of elecrical and electronic materials.
