The effects of accelerated Ultraviolet (UV) radiation on High temperature vulcanized (HTV), Room temperature vulcanized (RTV) silicone rubber and two types of ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) used for composite insulator were inverstigated by hydrophobicity class (HC), surface voltage decay after corona charging, SEM-EDS, FTIR and XPS. The contact angle in two kinds of silicone rubber was scarcely change, but EPDM occurred to the loss of hydrophobicity followed by surface cracking and chalking. The surface voltage decay on UV-treated silicone rubber and EPDM showed a different decay trend with UV treatment. EDS and XPS analysis indicated that the oxygen content increased with UV treatment time in all samples. For silicone rubber, the oxidized groups of inorganic silica-like structure increased with UV treatment time. The oxidized carbon of C=0, O=C-O in EPDM increased. These oxidized surface for each material had different electrostatic characteristics, so deposited charges were expected to have different impacts on their surface hydrophobicity. The degradation mechanism based on our results was discussed.

Surface treatment using UV irradiation was carried out to improve optical properties of polarizing films. The effects of UV energy of the UV-treated PVA films were investigated by measuring reflectance, surface roughness, contact angles, ESCA, and ATR. Reflectance decreased at wavelength of 450 nm or less and surface roughness increased with increasing UV energy. Water contact angle increased in the irradiated PVA films and surface energy decreased with increase in w energy. An analysis showed that the OH groups were broken and some new groups were introduced such as C=C and C=O bonds together with increased $O_{1s}/C_{1s}$, resulting in the observed surface modification effect. Surface modified PVA polarizing films showed improvement in light transmittance of polarizing films at high wavelength region without deteriorating polarization efficiency, which was not affected by UV irradiation sequence during manufacturing processes such as coloring and drawing.

To apply UV-C as a non-heating sterilization method to increase the microbiological safety of fresh seedless watermelon products, reductions in E. coli and quality changes by treatment dose (0, 2, 4, 8, 14, 20 kJ/m²) were investigated. The pH, sugar content, and hardness of watermelon inoculated with E. coli were not significantly different according to the UV-C treatment dose, but the polyphenol content was significantly decreased compared to the controls (425.4 GAE ㎍/g F.W.). When treated with 2 and 4 kJ/m², the lycopene content was 31.6 and 30.9 ㎍/g F.W., respectively, which was increased compared to the controls (28.5 ㎍/g F.W.). The arginine and citrulline content was also significantly increased compared to the controls. The number of E. coli was significantly decreased compared to the controls following UV-C treatment. Considering the degree of E. coli reduction, lycopene content, arginine content, citrulline content, and UV-C irradiation time, subsequent experiments were conducted by selecting a UV-C treatment dose of 2 kJ/m². The results of confirming the degree of reduction in the number of E. coli colonies by a single treatment and combined treatment with UV-C 2 kJ/m² and 70% ethanol showed that the combined treatment was most effective as colonies were decreased by 2.3 log CFU/g compared to the controls. Therefore, it is judged that UV-C 2 kJ/m² radiation and combined treatment with 70% ethanol could be applied as a non-heating sterilization method for fresh watermelon slices.

To do breath alcohol measurement, a sensor is necessary that it can detect low alcohol gas concentration of 0.01% at least. In this work, a capacitance-type alcohol gas sensor using porous silicon layer is developed to measure low alcohol gas concentration. The sensor using porous silicon layer has some sensitivity at room temperature by very large effective surface area, but there is still much room for improvement. In this experiment, we measured the capacitance of the sensor under 254 nm UV light on the porous silicon layer, in which alcohol solution was kept in a flask at 25, 35, and $45^{\circ}C$ by a heater. As the result, the improvement of sensitivity by illuminating UV light was observed. The increasing rate of the capacitance was shown to be double more than those measured under UV-off state. It is supposed that UV light activates response of the oriental and interfacial polarizations which have slow relaxation time for AC field.

ZnO is a wide-bandgap II-IV semiconductor and has a variety of potnetial applications. ZnO exhibits good piezoelectric, photoelectric and optical properties, and is a good candidate for an electroluminescence device. ZnO films have been deposited on (001) sapphire by PLD technique. Nd:YAG pulsed laser was operated at a wavelength of $\lambda=355nm$. The ZnO films were deposited at oxygen pressures from base to 500 mTorr. The substrate temperatures was increased from $200^{\circ}C\; to\;700^{\circ}C$ films showed strong UV emission by increasing the partial oxygen pressure. We have investigated the relationship between partial oxygen pressure and the intensity of UV emission.

Recently, The diagnosis techniques of electric facilities are developed on live line. This paper describes the discharge characteristics of polymer insulator(EPDM A type). Keeping the facilities in good working order, the goal of this paper will provide the information to enable user to easily judge conditions of facilities on the spot. The performance of polymer insulator is assessed from the KS C IEC 60270 and CEA LWIWG-01(96)(Tracking Wheel Test). As the results, UV generation patterns of polymer insulator grow like a jellyfish shape follow the ramping voltage. Discharging UVs are detected at about 31.25% of breakdown voltage. Just then, dimension of UV image is about $0.84cm^{2}$. The dimension of max. UV image is about $297.4cm^{2}$ at $160kV(V_{bd})$. The position of UV generation due to surface discharge of polymer insulator is the center of insulator in the early, then moved the ground side and the last, UV image moved through the junction part of source side. Surface of aged polymer insulator is cracked and faded due to arc. UV absorption spectrum of polymer insulator are appeared the C-H bond of scissoring vib. at $1014cm^{-1}$ and C=O bond of recombination structure. Also, recombined UV absorption peak such as C-H, N-H, and O-H is detected at the $3321cm^{-1}$. Through the paper, there are inspection data which are the relations between surface discharge of polymer insulator and UV detecting image.

Poly ketone (PK) was photo-oxidized by UV/ozone irradiation and the effect of UV energy on the surface properties of the UV-irradiated PK film was investigated by the measurement of reflectance, surface roughness, contact angles, ESCA, and ATR. Reflectance, particularly at the wavelength of 380nm, decreased with increasing UV energy. And the irradiation produced nano-scale roughness on the surface uniformly. The maximum surface roughness increased from 25.3nm for the unirradiated sample to 104.9nm at the irradiation of $42.4J/cm^2$. The improvement in hydrophilicity was caused by the introduction of polar groups such as C-O and C=O bonds resulting in higher $O_{1s}/C_{1s}$. The surface energy of PK film increased from $43.3mJ/m^2$ for the unirradiated sample to $71.9mJ/m^2$ at the irradiation of $31.8J/cm^2$. The zeta potential of the UV-irradiated PK decreased with increased UV energy and the dyeability to cationic dyes increased accordingly, resulting from the photochemically introduced anionic and dipolar dyeing sites on the PK films surfaces.

We studied the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) aligning capabilities by the UV alignment method on a a-C:H thin film surface. A good LC alignment by UV exposure on the a-C.H thin film surface at 200 ${\AA}$ of layer thickness was achieved. Also, a good LC alignment by the UV alignment method on the a-C:H thin film surface was observed at annealing temperature of 180 $^{\circ}C$. However, the alignment defect of the NLC was observed above annealing temperature of 200 $^{\circ}C$. Consequently, the good thermal stability of LC alignment by the UV alignment method on the a-C:H thin film surface can be achieved.
