Ethanol fermentation of chemically gelatinized starch and uncooked raw starch was nested with various starchy materials. Starches were gelatinized by 5.4% NaOH and neutralized by sulfuric acid. The patterns of $CO_2$ evolving and the ethanol yield for the chemically gelatinized starch resemble those obtained with thermally gelatinized starch. The alcoholic fermentation of raw starch was carried out by the simultanous saccharification-fermentation using a commercial glucoamylase and yeast. Ethanol yield from uncooked rice starch fermentation was highly comparable to that from cooked one. $CO_2$ evolving rates of the uncooked starches of corn, barley, tapioca and sweet potato were lower than those of the cooked starches. However, the final ethanol yields were similar or slightly lower, depending on the types of starch.

Ammonia (NH₃) that reacts with nitric or sulfuric acid in the air is the major culprit contributing to the formation of fine particulate matter (PM_2.5). NH₃ volatilization mainly originates from nitrogen fertilizer and livestock manure applied to arable soil. Cation exchange capacity (CEC) of peat moss (PM) and zeolite (ZL) is high enough to adsorb ammonium (NH₄⁺) in soil. Therefore, they might inhibit volatilization of NH₃. The objective of this study was to compare the effect of PM and ZL on NH₃ volatilization from upland soil. For this, a laboratory experiment was carried out, and NH₃ volatilization from the soil was monitored for 12 days. PM and ZL were added at the rate of 0, 1, 2, and 4% (wt wt^-1) with 354 N g m^-2 of urea. Cumulative NH₃-N volatilization decreased with increasing addition rate of both materials. Mean value of cumulative NH₃-N volatilization across application rate with PM was lower than that with ZL. CEC increased with increasing addition rate of both materials. While the soil pH increased with ZL, it decreased with PM. Increase in CEC resulted in NH₄⁺ adsorption on the negative charge of the external surface of both materials. In addition, decrease in soil pH hinders the conversion of NH₄⁺ to NH₃. Based on the above results, the addition of PM or ZL could be an optimum management to reduce NH₃ volatilization from the soil. However, PM was more effective in decreasing NH₃ volatilization than ZL due to the combined effect of CEC and pH.

PURPOSE. The object of the present study was to evaluate the shear bonding strength of composite to PEKK by applying several methods of surface treatment associated with various bonding materials. MATERIALS AND METHODS. One hundred and fifty PEKK specimens were assigned randomly to fifteen groups (n = 10) with the combination of three different surface treatments (95% sulfuric acid etching, airborne abrasion with $50{\mu}m$ alumina, and airborne abrasion with $110{\mu}m$ silica-coating alumina) and five different bonding materials (Luxatemp Glaze & Bond, Visio.link, All-Bond Universal, Single Bond Universal, and Monobond Plus with Heliobond). After surface treatment, surface roughness and contact angles were examined. Topography modifications after surface treatment were assessed with scanning electron microscopy. Resin composite was mounted on each specimen and then subjected to shear bond strength (SBS) test. SBS data were analyzed statistically using two-way ANOVA, and post-hoc Tukey's test (P<.05). RESULTS. Regardless of bonding materials, mechanical surface treatment groups yielded significantly higher shear bonding strength values than chemical surface treatment groups. Unlike other adhesives, MDP and silane containing self-etching universal adhesive (Single Bond Universal) showed an effective shear bonding strength regardless of surface treatment method. CONCLUSION. Mechanical surface treatment behaves better in terms of PEKK bonding. In addition, self-etching universal adhesive (Single Bond Universal) can be an alternative bonding material to PEKK irrespective of surface treatment method.

In the industry, galvanizing using the principle of sacrificial anode is used Zn-Ni alloy plating was developed as one of the measures to increase the corrosion resistance rather than pure zinc plating. The alloy plating layer has a corrosion resistance of 4-5 times that of the pure zinc plating layer, so that it is applied to automotive parts requiring high corrosion resistance even though the plating cost is high. The amount of Zn-Ni alloy plating solution is a sulfuric acid bath, a chlorinated bath, an alkali bath, and an ammonia bath. Here, the influence of the electrolytic conditions on the composition of the alloy plating in the chloride bath was investigated. The results are explained by the cathode overvoltage and the diffusion coefficient. In general, as the overvoltage of the cathode increases, the concentration polarization becomes more important than the activation polarization. The concentration polarization is determined by element diffusion in the diffusion layer. That is, as the overvoltage of the cathode increases, the Zn content having a large diffusion coefficient increases.

The purpose of this dissertation was to investigate the effect of mineral admixtures, such as fly ash, blast furnace slag powder, meta kaolin and silica fume, on the basic properties and durability of crushed sand shotcrete, selecting a series of shotcrete mixtures with a variable admixture. Compressive strength increased as the content of mineral admixtures increased, specially it was the most effective when using meta kaolin both at sample specimen and core after shotcreting. Rapid chloride ion permeability test and sulfuric acid resistance test showed that both durability increased as the substitute rate of mineral admixture increased. In air void analysis with image analysis, the targeted the spacing factor and specific surface were not satisfied because air-entrained agent was not used.

AAO template having nano scale pores of high aspect ratio has been prepared through anodizing of aluminum foil in sulfuric acid electrolyte. The effect of anodizing parameters on the pore size and distribution was also examined to obtain the proper AAO as a template material of nanowire. The surface of AAO template prepared was observed by SEM to examine the mean size and distribution of pores generated by the anodizing and Fe nanowires obtained by AC electroforming using AAO template were also observed with TEM to determine the length and shape of them. From the results of work, it was found that the mean size or distribution of pores was influenced significantly by the anodizing parameters such as voltage and temperature of electrolyte. Mean length and aspect ratio of Fe nanowires prepared in the work were found to be $10{\mu}m\;and\;300\;to\;1,000$, respectively.

The effect of organic additives such as PEG ind MPS on throwing power have been studied in the fabrication of porous reticular metal by electrodeposition using the mixture of cupric sulfate and sulfuric acid as electrolyte. Both the polarization test and the electrodeposition on the stacked electrodes, mean pore diameter of which was $250{\mu}m$, were performed to illustrate the behavior of throwing power quantitatively. As far as PEG was concerned, it lowered throwing power of electrodeposition on the porous electrode used in this work while the addition of MPS up to 500 ppm in electrolyte enhanced throwing power monotonously. When both MPS and PEG were added in electrolyte, the effect of MPS on throwing power was superior to that of PEG. However, the excess addition of MPS was found to cause the defect in mechanical strength of deposit layer. From the result of SEM observation, it could be concluded that less than 50 ppm of MPS in electrolyte was appropriate to avoid the breakage of deposit layer.

첨단산업으로 불리는 반도체, LCD, PDP, 유기EL(OLED) 등의 생산 공정은 고도의 청정상태를 요구하며, 때문에 이들의 생산공정 중 대부분이 클린룸 내에서 이루어진다. 클린룸 내에서의 주요공정은 크게 박막형성(Layering), 노광(Photo Lithography), 식각(Etching) 등 3가지 공정으로 나눌 수 있으며, 반도체 제조공정의 경우 특별히 도핑(Doping) 공정이 추가된다. 오염물질을 함유하는 클린룸 배기는 일반적으로 산, 알칼리, Toxic(PFCs, Flammable), VOC 등으로 분류하며, 각각의 배기는 각 배기특성에 맞는 오염제어 장치를 통해, 정화된 후, 대기로 방출된다. 산, 알칼리 배기는 일반적으로 최종 단계에서 중앙집중식 습식스크러버에 의해 흡수, 중화 처리되며, VOC의 경우 농축기(Concentrator) & 축열식 열 산화장치(RTO) 설비에 의해 연소 처리된다. 하지만 CVD공정으로부터의 배기가 주를 이루는 Toxic배기의 경우, 다량의 PFCs(과불소화합물) 가스를 함유하고 있는 이유로, 대부분 클린룸 내부에 P.O.U(Point of use) 처리장치가 설치되며, P.O.U에 의해 1차 처리된 후 최종적으로 중앙집중식 습식스크러버를 거쳐 대기로 방출된다. 알칼리배기의 주성분으로는 암모니아($NH_3$), HMDS (Hexa Methyl DiSilazane), TMAH (Tetra Methyl Ammonium Hydroxide), LGL, CD 등이며 흡수액에 황산(Sulfuric Acid)용액을 공급, 중화처리하고 있다. 탄소성분을 먹이로 하는 미생물의 번식에 의한 막힘 문제를 제외하고는 큰 문제가 없다. 하지만 Toxic배기 및 산배기의 경우 처리효율이, 가스흡수 이론에 의한 계산결과와 비교할 때, 매우 저조하게 나타나는 효율부족 현상을 겪고 있으며, 이는 잔여 PFCs 가스성분 및 반응에어로졸, 응축에어로졸 등의 영향으로 추정하고 있다. 최근 Toxic 배기의 경우, P.O.U 설비를 Burn & Wet type으로 변경하여, 배기 중 PFCs 및 반응에 에어로졸($SiO_2$)의 농도를 원천적으로 감소시키는 노력이 진행 중이다. 산배기의 경우, 산결로 현상에 의한, 응축에어로졸이 문제가 되고 있으나 내식열교환기(Anti-Corrosive Heat Exchanger), 하전액적스크러버 시스템(Charged Droplets Scrubber System), Wet ESP(Wet Electrostatic Procipitator) 등의 도입을 통해 문제해결을 위한 노력을 경주하고 있다.

The possibility of producing Cr$_2$O$_3$powder from waste magnesia-chromium refractory was investigated by sulfuric acid reaction, alkali fusion, water leaching & purification and heat treatment. The effects of temperature, the amount of NaOH added and the flow rate of air on chromium extraction efficiency in an alkali fusion step were investigated. The fusion product was leached with methanol to solve free-NaOH, and then leached with water to produce a Na$_2$CrO$_4$solution. The purity of chrome(Ⅵ) oxides, prepared both from monochromate with an impurity content and monochromate purified with $CO_2$were also examined. The purified monochromate solution was reduced from Cr(Ⅵ) to Cr(III) with NaHSO$_3$solution. The reduced solution was neutralized with NaOH to produce Cr(OH)$_3$. Water washing was treated to eliminate Na$_2$SO$_4$from neutralized Cr(OH)$_3$slurry. The washed Cr(OH)$_3$was dried and thermally treated to produce Cr$_2$O$_3$powder. The properties like lightness and hue of Cr$_2$O$_3$fabricated in this study were L=47.47, a=-14.40 and b=17.21.
