In this paper, a trade-off design and fabrication of IPMC(Ionic Polymer Metal Composites) as an actuator for a flapping device have been described. Experiments for the internal solvent loss of IPMCs have been conducted for various combinations of cation and solvent in order to find out the best combination of cation and solvent for minimal solvent loss and higher actuation force. From the experiments, it was found that IPMCs with heavy water as their solvent could operate longer. Relations between length/thickness and tip force of IPMCs were also quantitatively identified for the actuator design from the tip force measurement of 200, 400, 640, and $800{\mu}m$ thick IPMCs. All IPMCs thicker than $200{\mu}m$ were processed by casting $Nafion^{TM}$ solution. The shorter and thicker IPMCs tended to generate higher actuation force but lower actuation displacement. To improve surface conductivity and to minimize solvent evaporation due to electrically heated electrodes, gold was sputtered on both surfaces of the cast IPMCs by the Physical Vapor Deposition(PVD) process. For amplification of a short IPMC's small actuation displacement to a large flapping motion, a rack-and-pinion type hinge was used in the flapping device. An insect wing was attached to the IPMC flapping mechanism for its flapping test. In this test, the wing flapping device using the $800{\mu}m$ thick IPMC. could create around $10^{\circ}{\sim}85^{\circ}$ flapping angles and $0.5{\sim}15Hz$ flapping frequencies by applying $3{\sim|}4V$.

The two major obstacles in the application of IPMC to flapping actuators operated in the air are solvent loss and actuation force. In this paper, solvent loss of various IPMCs made of Nafion$^{TM}$117(183$\mu$m thickness) has been experimentally investigated to find out the best combination of cation and solvent for minimal solvent loss in IPMCs and higher actuation force. For this purpose. experiments for the internal solvent loss measurement of IMPCs have been conducted for various combinations of cation and solvent. From the experiments, it was found that heavy water showed improvement in the operating time up to more than two minutes. in the tip force measurement of IPMCs, it was found that smaller and thicker IPMCs produced larger tip forces. However, the shorter IPMCs generated reduced actuation displacements and created flapping motion with decreased natural frequency. For the design of flapping device actuated by 5mm wide, 10mm long, 0.2mm thick IPMCs were used in the stacked form. Since the actuation force is a few gram-force, we stacked five IPMCs to improve actuation force. To amply the actuation force, rack-and-pin ion type hinge was used for the flapping device and insect (Cicadidae) wing was attached to the stacked IPMC actuator. In the flapping test, the device could generate flapping angle of 15$^{\circ}$ at 6Hz excitation by 2.5 voltage square wave input.

최근 특정 용매에 대한 저항성이 있고 특정 분획분자량을 가지는 고분자 분리막을 통해 용매 또는 용질의 분리가 이루어지는 용매저항성 나노여과막에 대한 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 분리막의 필수조건은 우수한 물성과 용매저항성을 가지는 것인데 현존하는 상업용 고분자 중 가장 내열성이 좋다고 알려진 폴리벤즈이미다졸은 고유의 용매저항성 역시 뛰어나지만 가교되었을 때 강한 유기용매에도 녹지 않는 특성을 가진다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 폴리벤즈이미다졸의 용매저항성을 이용한 나노여과막의 적용 가능성에 대하여 논의하고자 하였다. 분리막의 제조는 비용매유도상전이법을 통해 실시하였고 전계방출형 주사전자현미경을 통해 나노여과막으로서 적절한 복합막을 형성하는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 가교유무에 따른 용매의 투과성능을 확인하였고 장시간 운전을 통하여 용매에 대한 내구성에 따른 안정성 또한 확인하였다. 투과도 실험은 물, 에탄올, 벤젠, N, N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc), n-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) 다섯 가지 용매에 의해 실시되었으며 각각의 초기 플럭스는 $6500L/m^2h$ (Water, 2 bar), $720L/m^2h$ (DMAc, 5 bar), $185L/m^2h$ (Benzene, 5 bar), $132L/m^2h$ (NMP, 5 bar), $65L/m^2h$ (Ethanol, 5 bar)를 나타내었고 분리막의 종류에 따라 2-5 bar의 압력을 적용하였다.

Dispersion behavior of the slurries consisted of bimodal-type AlN powders was examined in non-aqueous solvent system. Azotropic solvent system and copolymer acidic dispersant were applied to the slurries. Measurements of the sedimentation height and the viscosity of the each slurry, and the test of particle size distribution of the each powder sample were conducted as examinations for the dispersion behavior at the various dispersant contents. The bimodal-type particle size distribution was continued after addition of the dispersant and small particle portions were increased as the dispersant content increases. The density of the green sheet was also increased as the dispersant content increases and a green density of $2.114\;g/cm^3$ was obtained at the sample prepared from 2.4 wt% dispersant content. The increase of large particle portions resulted in the surface defects of the green sheets.

The conformational transition of poly(L-proline) (PLP), Form Ⅱ → Form Ⅰ and the intermolecular aggregation of the product, Form Ⅰ, during and after the transition in water-propanol (1:7, 1:9, 1:15.7, and 1:29 v/v) were studied. For the study, the viscosity change and excess light scattering intensity were measured in the course of the transition which was determined by the Form Ⅰ fraction, fI of the sample solution. For the PLP sample of molecular weight Mv=31,000 the experimental results show that the reaction course is roughly divided into three regions: in the first region [fI=0.27 to 0.40 (- [α]D=400 to 330)], the conformational change of Form Ⅱ → Form Ⅰ occurs with decrease of viscosity, in the second region [fI=0.40 to 0.80 (- [α]D=330 to 120)], a partial side-by-side (p-S-S) type aggregation in which Form Ⅰ blocks interact with each other, which induces the increase of viscosity, starts to occur, and in the third region [fI=0.80 to 1.00 (- [α]D=120 to 15)], a side-by-side type (raft like) aggregation of Form Ⅰ or an end-to-end (E-E) type aggregation occurs according to the solvent situation, i.e., in a water-rich medium [water-propanol (1:9 or 1:7 v/v)], the (S-S) type aggregation with a gross decrease in viscosity occurs while in a water-poor medium [water-propanol (1:29 or 1:15.7 v/v), the (E-E) type aggregation with a large increase in viscosity occurs. The (S-S) type aggregation was promoted at high temperatures. Based on the structure of PLP, a reasonable mechanism for the (p-S-S) and (S-S) aggregation which occurs with the transition of Form Ⅱ → Form Ⅰ is considered. The suggested mechanism was also supported by the result of chain length effect of PLP for the aggregation.

본 연구에서는 바이오매스로부터 파클리탁셀 회수를 위한 전통적 용매 추출(conventional solvent extraction, CSE), 마이크로웨이브를 이용한 추출(microwave-assisted extraction, MAE), 초음파를 이용한 추출(ultrasound-assisted extraction, UAE) 방법을 비교하였다. 추출 용매 종류(아세톤, 클로로포름, 에탄올, 메탄올, 메틸렌 클로라이드)에 따른 영향을 조사한 결과, 메탄올이 모든 추출 방법에서 가장 적합하였다. 메탄올을 이용한 MAE와 UAE의 경우, 단 1회의 추출로 대부분의 파클리탁셀 회수(>95%)가 가능하였다. 또한 MAE와 UAE의 경우 추출 온도(25-45 ℃), 마이크로웨이브 파워(50-150 W), 초음파 파워(180-380 W)의 증가에 따라 파클리탁셀 회수율이 증가하였다. 또한 SEM 분석을 통해 바이오매스 표면을 조사한 결과, 표면 구조가 CSE의 경우에는 조금 주름진 형태를 보인 반면 MAE와 UAE의 경우에는 강한 충격으로 매우 거칠고 파괴된 형태를 보였다.

4-도데카노일옥시벤젠술폰산나트륨(sodium dodecanoyl-4-oxybenzenesulfonate; DOBS) 염은 저온에서도 효과적인 표백력과 살균력을 나타내는 물질이다. 본 연구에서는 물(W)-극성 비양자성 용매 계를 사용하는 알칼리 조건하에서 dodecanoyl chloride와 sodium 4-hydroxybenzene sulfonate로부터 DOBS의 온화하고 효율적인 합성방법을 조사하였다. 먼저 물만을 용매로 사용하고 온도 또는 시간을 변화시키며 반응한 결과, 수율은 30 ℃와 1 h 이상의 반응 조건에서 대부분 약 5% 정도로 낮게 나타났다. 효율적인 용매 계를 발견하기 위하여 극성 비양자성 용매의 종류를 변화시키며 물과 혼합하여 제조한 다양한 용매계에서 수율에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 수율은 아세톤(acetone; AC)과 물을 혼합한 용매 계에서 가장 우수하였으며, 온화한 반응조건(30 ℃, 1 h 및 상압)의 반응에서 약 82%의 높은 값을 나타냈다. 제조한 DOBS는 높은 표백력 및 살균력을 보여 표백활성화제로서 활용이 가능함을 확인하였다.

In order to facilitate the quantification in autumnal Hamamelidaceae leaves, a HPLC method was used for the determination of two chlorophyll catabolites and their isomers: bilin-type (1) and bilinone-type (2) ones. The separation was done on a RP-C4 column with a gradient solvent system of 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid aqueous-methanol at the flow-rate of 0.2 mL/min and detected at 244 nm. The quantity of bilin-type (1) and bilinone-type (2) chlorophyll catabolite isomers from ten species of Hamamelidaceae autumnal leaves methanol extracts: Corylopsis pauciflora, Corylopsis spicata, Forthergilla major, Hamamelis intermedia, Hamamelis japonicum, Hamamelis japonicum var. flavopurpurscens, Hamamelis virginiana, Parrotiopsis jacquemontiana, Parrotia persica and X Sycoparrotia semidecidua were from 0.85 mg/g ~ 57.50 mg/g for bilin-type isomers (1) and 3.40 mg/g ~ 49.30 mg/g for bilinone-type isomers (2). The results obtained gave insight in quantitative bilintype (1) and bilinone-type (2) chlorophyll catabolite composition of the Hamamelidaceae plant species autumnal leaves.
