This study investigates fire-retardant performances and combustion/thermal characteristics of fire-retardant treated wood by comparing them with those of fire-retardant untreated wood from the expreimental resutls of cone calorimeter and thermo-gravimetric(TG) analyzer. Hazardousness of combustion product gases for fire-retardant treated wood and untreasted wood were also observed from the results of internal finish material incombustibility test according to the Korea standard code of KS F 2271. In this study, we also tried to improve the fire retardant performance of wood by applying fire-retardant chemical composites, and to secure the fire safety performance in buildings. Red pine (Pinus densiflora) was selected as a test specimen because it is mostly used as a building material in Korea. Fire retardant chemical composites (FRCs) were prepared by mixing boron, phosphorous, and nitrogen species and treated by press-impregnation method. Water-based FRCs were composed of 3% boric acid($H_3BO_3$), 3% borax decahydrate($Na_2B_4O_7$), 8% ammonium carbonate($(NH_4)_2CO_3$), diammonium phosphate ($(NH_4)_2HPO_4$) varied from 10-30% and potassium carbonate($K_2CO_3$) varied from 10-30%. From the test results of cone calorimeter, TG analysis and gas hazard assessments, newly proposed were the optimal composition and production methods of FRCs which can sufficiently meet fire-retardant level 3 based on Korea law of construction. Thus, the FRCs, developed in this study, are anticipated to contribute to the improvement of fire safety and widespread of usage in wood as building materials.

As precursors of cathode materials for lithium ion batteries, $Ni_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}(OH)_2$ powders are prepared in a continuously stirred tank reactor via a co-precipitation reaction between aqueous metal sulfates and NaOH in the presence of $NH_4OH$ in air or nitrogen ambient. Calcination of the precursors with $Li_2CO_3$ for 8 h at $1,000^{\circ}C$ in air produces dense spherical cathode materials. The precursors and final powders are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy, particle size analysis, tap density measurement, and thermal gravimetric analysis. The precursor powders obtained in air or nitrogen ambient show XRD patterns identified as $Ni_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}(OH)_2$. Regardless of the atmosphere, the final powders exhibit the XRD patterns of $LiNi_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ (NCM). The precursor powders obtained in air have larger particle size and lower tap density than those obtained in nitrogen ambient. NCM powders show similar tendencies in terms of particle size and tap density. Electrochemical characterization is performed after fabricating a coin cell using NCM as the cathode and Li metal as the anode. The NCM powders from the precursors obtained in air and those from the precursors obtained in nitrogen have similar initial charge/discharge capacities and cycle life. In conclusion, the powders co-precipitated in air can be utilized as precursor materials, replacing those synthesized in the presence of nitrogen injection, which is the usual industrial practice.

Copolymers of gelatin and poly (vinyl alcohol), (PVA) grafted by acrylic acid (AAc) with excellent water absorption and retention abilities under neutral conditions were successfully synthesized using $^{60}Co$ gamma radiations in presence of ammonium persulphate (APS), as water soluble initiator and sodium bicarbonate ($NaHCO_3$) as foaming agent. The optimum synthesis conditions pertaining to maximum swelling percentage were evaluated as a function of gelatin/PVA ratio, amount of water, concentration of APS, $NaHCO_3$, monomer concentration and total irradiation dose. Maximum percent swelling (1694.59%) of the copolymer, gelatin-co-PVA, was obtained at optimum $[APS]=2.92{\times}10^{-1}mol/L$, $[NaHCO_3]=7.94{\times}10^{-2}mol/L$ and 1.5 mL of water at total dose of 31.104 kGy while in case of grafted copolymer, (gelatin-co-PVA)-g-poly(AAc), maximum percent swelling (560.86%) was obtained using $8.014{\times}10^{-1}mol/L$ of AAc in 9 mL water with 31.104 kGy preirradiation dose. The pristine and grafted copolymers were characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning electron Microscopy (SEM), Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) methods. The copolymers loaded with an antiseptic, Povidone, were used as wound dressing materials for wounded gastrocnemius muscle of mice and the results exhibit that (gelatin-co-PVA)-g-poly (AAc) copolymer is a potent wound dressing material as compared to the copolymer.

본 연구에서는 도시고형폐기물을 구성하는 주요한 성분중의 하나인 셀룰로오스와 플라스틱의 열분해 특성을 열중량시스템에서 조사하였다. 실험은 온도범위 400~900K에서 제 실험변수에 따라 질소분위기에서 수행하였으며, 압축한 도시고형폐기물에 적용하기 위한 수정 Arrhenius 열분해 모델을 제안하였다. 승온속도를 20, 30, 40K/min로 변화시키면서 수행한 실험에서, 도시고형폐기물을 구성하는 순수물질의 활성화에너지는 셀룰로오스계열의 경우 117~166kJ/mol, 플라스틱계열은 187~239kJ/mol이며, 반응차수는 1.1~1.9의 범위에 있었다. 압축한 도시고형폐기물은 승온속도, 압축비, 입경의 증가에 따라 char의 수율이 증가하였다. 또한 압축도시고형폐기물의 열분해 과정을 Arrhemius식과 열전달이론을 이용하여 수정 제안한 모델의 적용 결과 기존의 모델보다 실험결과와 더 잘 일치하였다.

In this study, the selective catalytic reduction of $NO_x$ with ammonia was carried out in a filter bag support reactor. The experiments were performed by powder type $MnO_x$ and $V_2O_5$/$TiO_2$ catalyst at low temperature between 130 and $250^{\circ}C$. Also, the effect of $SO_2$ and $H_2O$ on the NO conversion was investigated under our test conditions. The powder type catalysts were analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS), X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). It was observed that NO removal efficiency of the powder type $V_2O_5$/$TiO_2$ catalyst was 85% at low temperature($200^{\circ}C$) under presence of oxygen and that of $MnO_x$ was 50% at the same condition. The powder type $V_2O_5$/$TiO_2$ catalyst, in conclusion, was found to be available for SCR reaction in a filter bag support system.

소량의 CNT 나노입자를 함유한 CNT-페놀 복합재료를 제조하여 삭마 효과를 확인하였다. CNT 함량을 0.1 wt%에서 0.3 wt%까지 증가시킴에 따른 인장, 압축 강도를 평가하고 삭마 저항성에 대한 차이를 분석하였다. 산소와 등유를 혼합하여 화염 발생시켜 재료의 삭마 효과를 평가하였다. FE-SEM을 이용하여 삭마 실험 이후 발생된 시편의 미세 구조 변화를 확인하였다. CNT 함유 정도에 따른 TGA 열분석을 시도하여 열적 안정성을 평가하였다. 0.3wt% CNT-페놀 복합재료가 일반 페놀 수지 및 0.1 wt% CNT-페놀 복합재료보다 삭마율이 낮았다. 삭마에 따른 재료 변화 메커니즘을 규명하기 위해 TGA 분석 결과와 FE-SEM을 이용한 미세 구조 결과를 분석하였다. 고열의 화염을 이용한 삭마 실험을 통해 시편 내부의 CNT 입자가 존재하는 미세구조를 확인할 수 있었다. 수지 내부에 균일하게 분산된 CNT 입자의 역할이 내삭마성을 증가시키는 결과를 확인하였다.

In recent years, many studies have been done on the performance of concrete containing glass powder (GP). For the purpose of widespread use of GP in concrete mixes, a knowledge of the performance of such a mixture after a fire is essential for the perspective of structural use. This research work was carried out to evaluate the performance of High Performance Concrete (HPC) made with GP after being exposed to elevated temperature. The studied mixtures include partial replacement of cement by GP with up to 30%. The mechanical performance and structural alterations were assessed after high temperature treatment from 200℃ to 800℃. The mechanical performance was evaluated by testing the specimens to the compressive and tensile strength. In addition, the mass loss and the porosity were measured to notice the structural alterations. Changes in microstructure due to temperature was also investigated by the X-ray diffraction (XRD) and thermal gravimetric analyses (TGA) as well as porosity adsorption tests. The results of the concrete strength tests showed a slight difference in compressive strength and the same tensile strength performance when replacing a part of the cement by GP. However, after high temperature exposition, concrete with GP showed better performance than the reference concrete for temperature below 600℃. But, after heating at 800℃, the strength of the concrete with GP drop slightly more than reference concrete. This is accompanied by an important increase in mass loss and water porosity. After the microstructure analysis, no important changes happened differently for concrete with GP at high temperature except a new calcium silica form appears after the 800℃ heating.

Poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) 주사슬과 poly(hydroxyethyl acrylate) (PHEA) 곁사슬로 구성된 빗살모양의 PVC-g-PHEA 공중합체를 원자전달라디칼 중합을 통해 합성하였다. 이렇게 합성된 PVC-g-PHEA의 OH 그룹과 이미다졸 디카르복실릭산 (IDA)의 COOH 그룹과의 에스테르 반응에 의하여 가교된 전해질막을 제조하였다. 인산(PA)을 도핑하여 이미다졸-인산 착체를 형성한 결과, PA함량이 증가함에 따라 고분자 전해질막의 수소 이온 전도도가 증가하였다. 특히 100도 비가습 조건에서 수소 이온 전도도는 최대 0.011 S/cm까지 증가하였다. 만능 재료 시험기(UTM) 측정결과, 제조된 PVC-g-PHEA/IDA/PA 전해질막은 575 MPa의 높은 Young 모듈러스 및 기계적 강도를 보여주었다. 열분석 결과(TGA) 전해질막은 $200^{\circ}C$까지 열적으로 안정함을 확인하였다.
