While single strand DNAs have been widely used for the scaffold of brightly fluorescent silver nanoclusters (Ag NCs), double strand DNAs have not been as successful. Herein, we report a novel synthetic approach for bright Ag NCs using branched double strand DNAs as the scaffolds for synthesis. X-shaped DNA (X-DNA) and Y-shaped DNA (Y-DNA) effectively stabilized Ag NCs, and both X-DNA and Y-DNA resulted in brightly fluorescent Ag NCs. The concentration and molar ratio of silver and DNA were found important for the fluorescence efficiency. The brightest Ag NC with the photoluminescence quantum efficiency of 19.8% was obtained for the reaction condition of 10 ${\mu}M$ X-DNA, 70 ${\mu}M$ silver, and the reaction time of 48 h. The fluorescence lifetime was about 2 ns for the Ag NCs and was also slightly dependent on the synthetic condition. Addition of Cu ions at the Ag NC preparations resulted in the quenching of Ag NC fluorescence, which was different to the brightening cases of single strand DNA stabilized Ag NCs.

Synthesis and process development of nano-size Ti powder by SFE(Sodium/halide Flame Encapsulation) method were investigated. Four concentric coflow burner was used and its flame configuration was $TiCl_4/Ar/Na/Ar$ in order from the center. Flame has been controlled by the various processing parameters such as temperature of burner and flow rates of both $TiCl_4$(g) precursor and Na(g). It was found that yellow-colored flame was shown in the flow rates of 70cc/min of $TiCl_4$(g) precursor and 2 $\ell$ /min of Na(g) which were regarded as optimum flame condition. The powders encapsuled by NaCl were produced having the average powder size of 250nm. The results of X-ray diffraction showed that powders from the optimized condition consisted of pure Ti and NaCl. TEM analysis confirmed that the several Ti powders of 20-100nm were encapsulated with NaCl. After removing sodium chloride by heat treatment, the spherical Ti powders with the size range of 80 to 150nm were obtained.

Layered silicate was synthesized at hydrothermal condition from silica adding to various materials. Nano-clay was synthesized by intercaltion of various amine compounds into synthetic layered silicate. The products were analysed by XRD, SEM, and FT-IR in order to examine the condition of synthesis and intercalation. From the results, it was confirmed that kaolinite was synthesized from precipitated silica and gibbsite at $220^{\circ}C$ during 10 days, and hetorite was synthesized from silica sol at $100^{\circ}C$ during 48 h. Na-Magadiite was synthesized from silica gel at $150^{\circ}C$ during 72 h, and Na-kenyaite was synthesized from silica gel at $160^{\circ}C$ during 84 h. Nano-clay was prepared using synthetic layered silicate intercalated with various amine compounds. Kenyaite was easily intercalated by various organic compounds, and has the highest basal-spacing value among other layered silicates. Basal-spacing was changed according to the length of alkyl chain of amine comopounds. Polymer can be easily intercalated by dispersion with large space of interlayer. Finally, epoxy/nano-clay nanocomposite can be easily prepared.

Silica powders were synthesized using emulsion solution containing water, nonionic surfactant of Triton N-57, and cyclohexane. Silica powders were prepared at low cost using inexpensive starting material of sodium silicate and ammonium sulfate. Morphology, size and size distribution were observed and determined using SEM. The powder was identified as silica by FT-IR and XRD analysis. Particle size and size distributions were affected by concentration of reactants, reaction time, and concentration of surfactant. Particle size were increased with increasing concentration of reactants and particles became dense with increasing reaction time. As R value increased, tile particle size was increased, reached a certain value and then decreased again. The silica powders synthesized under optimum condition were spherical in shape, $0.8{\mu}m$ in average particle size, narrow in particles size distribution, and well dispersed.

In this research, the chemo-enzymatic synthesis of sorbitan methacrylate was investigated to optimize reaction conditions. Firstly, sorbitan was manufactured by sorbitol cyclic reaction in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TSA) as catalyst material. Secondly, sorbitan methacrylate was synthesized by immobilized lipase Novozyme 435 with acyl donors in t-butanol. As a result of enzymatic synthesis of sorbitan methacrylate, the conversion yield reached about $65\%$ in the condition of initial sorbitan conc. 50 g/L, enzyme content $3\%$ (w/v) , molar ratio 1:3, reaction temperature 50^{circ}C and reaction time 42 hrs using methyl methacrylate as acyl donor. Comparing with acyl donors and reaction temperature, the conversion yield reached about 18, 65 and $80\%$ with methacrylic acid, methyl methacrylate and vinyl methacrylate as acyl donor, respectively. And optimum reaction temperature was 60, 50, and 50^{circ}C, respectively

The wound healing process in fetus is quite different form that of adult. Regeneration plays an important role and scarless wound healing is possible in early gestational fetal period. Recently, the various effects of the hypoxia and reoxygenation in the wound healing process have been investigated by many researchers. The hypoxic state is known to alter protein synthesis and gene expression of TGF-${\beta}$, VEGF. The authors hypothesize there may be differences between fetal and adult fibroblast and this difference may play a possible role in the mechanism of scarless fetal wound healing. In this study, we investigated the growth of fibroblast, the amount of collagen deposition, the amount of protein synthesis and gene expression in TGF-${\beta}$(transforming growth factor-${\beta}$), VEGF(vascular endothelial growth factor) under the various hypoxic and reoxygenation conditions. Through these processes, we tried to determine the relationships between scarless fetal wound healing and hypoxic condition. In control group, fetal and adult fibroblasts were cultured under normoxic condition. The experimental groups were allocated into four different groups. The differences in TGF-beta, VEGF under 24, 48, 72 hours were statistically investigated. Compared to adult fibroblast group, there was a statistically significant increase (p<0.01) in the rates of protein synthesis in TGF-beta and VEGF of fetal fibroblast. In this study, these results may reflect the possibility that fetal fibroblast are more susceptible to change in oxygen and has a superior rate of angiogenesis through increased VEGF expression. The possible superiority of angiogenesis in fetal fibroblast may play an important role in scarless wound healing.

에너지 보안의 위기를 타파하기 위한 가장 많은 관심을 가지고 있는 것 중 하나가 지중 속 매장되어 있는 석탄이다. 본 연구에서는 지중에서 석탄을 직접 채굴을 하지 않고 지중 내 석탄 가스화를 직접 진행할 수 있는 지중 석탄가스화 공정에 대하여 화학 반응 공정 모사를 진행하였다. 본 연구는 1980년대 말에 미국의 Rocky Mountain 1 지중 석탄가스화 프로젝트를 참고로 진행을 하여 기본 모델을 완성하였다. 그리고 산화제 주입조건에 따른 민감도 분석을 통하여 합성가스의 조성 결과를 확인하였다. 반응 모델은 건조, 열분해, 촤 가스화로 나누어 모델이 구현되었고 실제 실험값에서의 생산된 가스량, 가스화 된 탄소량, 가스 수율 등의 값으로 결과를 확인하였다.

${\alpha}$-상 과 ${\beta}$-상 두 가지 종류의 탄화규소(SiC) 입자 표면에 수열 합성 방법으로 ZSM-5 결정을 형성하였다. SiC는 $50{\mu}m$ 이상이 되는 크기의 입자를 사용하였으며, ZSM-5 결정이 SiC 표면에서부터 성장하도록 유도하기 위하여 합성 단계에 앞서 SiC 표면에 산화층을 형성하였으며, 수열합성 온도와 시간을 변화시켜 보았다. 그 결과 ${\beta}$-SiC는 $900^{\circ}C$ 조건에서도 산화막이 형성되었으며, 특히 $150^{\circ}C$ 합성 조건에서 ZSM-5가 ${\beta}$-SiC 표면에서부터 성장하였음이 뚜렷이 관찰되었다. $200^{\circ}C$ 조건에서는 ZSM-5의 결정의 크기가 성장할 뿐 아니라, 시간의 증가에 따라 결정의 형태가 뚜렷해지고 SiC 표면에 도포되는 양이 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
