In this study, natural dyeing using Polygonum tinctoria was performed with linen, ramie, and hemp, which are biodegradable cellulose fibers, considering environmental aspects. In particular, the impacts of alkali NaOH and reducing agent Na₂S₂O₄ were examined, and the possibilities of minimizing the use and reusing the dye were explored. The surface dye concentrations were found to be in the following order: hemp>linen>ramie. With the increase in all additives, the L^* value decreased, and the ⊿E and K/S values increased gradually. When Na₂S₂O₄ was 1g/L, the surface color of the dye appeared uniformly from the NaOH concentration of 0.4g/L (pH 10.84). When NaOH was 0.4g/L, the K/S values of linen and ramie increased rapidly after 0.4g/L of Na₂S₂O₄, and hemp maintained a stable color from 0.6g/L of Na₂S₂O₄. With the increase in the dye concentration from 1 to 6g/L, all the fibers were dyed uniformly. The K/S value increased or higher doubled upon repeated dyeing six times for 5 min than when dyed only once for 30 min. Therefore, the linen, ramie, and hemp fibers dyed repeatedly exhibited good washing, rubbing, and colorfastness to perspiration, which was rated between 4 and 4-5, and that to light was rated as 5. Moreover, no discoloration due to sunlight was observed. Finally, linen exhibited a bacterial reduction of 99.9%, thereby indicating its excellent antibacterial property.

In the present study, safe management and value improvement of bamboo sunblind, which is an item of cultural heritage, were performed by adopting stable conservation treatment methods. The bamboo sunblind used in the present study was excavated from No. 1 catchment site in Baesanseongji, Busan. It was determined that the main material used to make the sunblind was bamboo, and herbal plants were used to weave the bamboo using lacquer as an adhesive agent. All contaminants and soil adhered to the sunblind was removed. Thereafter, the sunblind, which was recovered in the form of blocks, was washed separately after fixing it to a temporary plaster frame and to avoid the blocks from breaking during washing. Then, polyethylene glycol (PEG) impregnation was utilized for the reinforcement treatment. Based on the preliminary test results, the shape of the sunblind was fixed using a stainless-steel frame to prevent physical damage that may occur during the drying process. Thereafter, the bamboo sunblind was vacuum freeze-dried. PEG 20% (in ethyl alcohol) was applied as a surface treatment agent for stabilization the sunblind. After the surface treatment, the bamboo sunblind were joined together to fit the maximum width, and the rectangular shape of the sunblind was restored-as best as possible-while filling in the missing parts by maximizing the use of unknown members such as in the disturbed layers below bamboo sunblind surface. The conservation treatment was completed by fixing the bamboo sunblind into the fabricated frame.

Cationization is effective to complement the defects of Tencel blended fabrics by introducing new functions. For this purpose, we used chitosan, which is congenial to the human body, free of pollution, and easily reacted. Then, we compared it to the Tencel single fabrics. To perform such effective cationization, the fabrics were treated with chitosan after NaOH pretreatment and enzyme treatment thereof. After that, the fabrics were treated with a crosslinking agent and a softner. The dyeing property of the cationized Tencel blended fabrics and reactive dye, which is a type of anionic dye, show a high concentration in neutral salt and excellent repulsive power between the fabrics and the decreased dyes. The dyeing property of the chitosan treated fabrics represented better performances than that of untreated fabric in the lower concentration of neutral salt. Meanwhile, when it was dyed with certain acid dyes, the dyeing property of the chitosan treated fabrics showed better results due to the reaction of an amine group, which was introduced by chitosan treatment. Thus, the verification of the cationization of the Tencel blended fabrics was performed. The washing fastness of the Tencel blended fabrics showed a little bit better than that of the Tencel single fabric, and it represented a better performance in the dye with a reactive dye than that of an acid dye.

Among the various roll-to-roll printing technologies such as gravure, gravure-offset, and reverse offset printing, reverse offset printing has the advantage of fine patterning, with less than 5 ${\mu}m$ line width. However, it involves complex processes, consisting of 1) the coating process, 2) the off process, 3) the patterning process, and 4) the set process of the ink. Each process demands various ink properties, including viscosity, surface tension, stickiness, and adhesion with substrate or clich$\acute{e}$; these properties are critical factors for the printing quality of fine patterning. In this study, Ag nano ink was developed for reverse offset printing and the effect of polyvinylpyrrolidone(PVP), used as a capping agent of Ag nano particles, on the printing quality was investigated. Ag nano particles with a diameter of ~60 nm were synthesized using the conventional polyol synthesis process. Ethanol and ethylene glycol monopropyl ether(EGPE) were used together as the main solvent in order to control the drying and absorption of the solvents during the printing process. The rheological behavior, especially ink adhesion and stickiness, was controlled with washing processes that have an effect on the offset process and that played a critical role in the fine patterning. The electrical and thermal behaviors were analyzed according to the content of PVP in the Ag ink. Finally, an Ag mesh pattern with a line width of 10 ${\mu}m$ was printed using reverse offset printing; this printing showed an electrical resistivity of 36 ${\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ after sintering at $200^{\circ}C$.

The purpose of this study is to investigate present situation of recovery and treatment of waste home appliances, and to supply basic data for active reuse and recycling of waste home appliances. Among waste home appliances, refrigerator comprise 30.7%, television 37.8%, washing machine 22.9% and air conditioner 0.3%. Local government collected 46.2% of waste home appliances, producer and agent collected 49.7%, recycling center 4.1%. Seventeen percentage of waste home appliances are reused, 65% are recycled, and 18% are landfilled or incinerated. To improve the recycling activity of waste of home appliances, it is important to establish private reuse and recycling organization. It is also necessary to improve waste deposit and refund system for efficient recycling by decent financial support. Extension of a term of usage is another method to minimize waste home appliances. Finally, intensive education for consumer is necessary for waste minimization. Some portion of recycling and treatment cost can be allocated to the local government and large private business can shred and recycle waste home appliances.

The skin and fleshy substance on the net fiber of sponge-gourd fruit pressed mechanically was removed with 0.2% NaOH solution in $3{\sim}5$ hours. The treatment of 0.2% NaOH with 0.02% Monopol(non-ionogenic polyoxethylen derivative) as surfactnat and with 0.1% $Ca(OCl)_2$ as bleaching agent enhanced the effect to remove the fleshy substance and improve the quality of net fiber. Also, the wet hardness and tensile strength of net fiber were controlled by the crosslinkage of the fiber with glu tardialdehyde, glyoxal, and formalin, respectively. The net fiber was stable on the acid and alkaline solutions. Also the range of temperature to degradate the fiber was $338{\sim}385^{\circ}C$. These values indicated a fair stability. The improved net fiber can be used for raw material of bath, dish washing, oil and gas filter, and many kinds of decorations.

최근 정보·전자산업의 발전으로 고 신뢰성 전자재료에 대한 수요가 증대되고 있으며 이러한 첨단산업의 기반의 될 신소재 중 전자세라믹스가 차지하는 비중이 그 대부분을 차지하고 있으며 이에 대한 수요와 기대가 점점 커지고 있다. 이러한 전자세라믹스는 유전재료, 자성재료, 압전재료, 도전성 재료 등으로 나뉘게 된다. 어떠한 분류에 들어가든 그 조성은 금속의 산화물 형태가 일반적이며 미세한 분말의 성형체를 소결(sintering) 함으로써 최종제품으로 완성된다. 이러한 전잣라믹스가 최근 요구되는 고 신뢰성, 고 밀도화를 달성하기 위해선 원료 분말 제조단계부터 제어가 필요하다. 원료분말의 균일·균질성과 그 입도는 소결특성 뿐만아니라 전기적 특성에도 큰 영향을 미치기 때문이다. 세라믹스의 분말제조 방법 중 일반적으로 사용되는 방법으로는 고상 산화물을 혼합하여 하소(calcination)한 후 분쇄하는 '고상합성법'과 금속의 염 또는 alkoxide 용액을 이용하여 화학적으로 제조하는 '습식 화학적 합성법'이 있다. 고상합성법은 합성온도가 높고 기계적 분쇄와 혼합에 의존하므로 균일·균질성이 떨어지고 분말크기를 1㎛ 이하로 만들기 힘들다. 반면에 습식화학적 합성법은 기계적인 분쇄와 혼합에선 얻을 수 없는 원자 혹은 분자단위의 균일한 혼합과 submicron 이하의 미세한 분말을 얻을 수 있다. 따라서 이러한 습식 화학적 합성으로 얻은 분말을 사용하면 미세한 입자의 특성으로 인해 소결온도를 낮출 수 있으며 균일한 미세구조와 균질한 조성을 갖게되어 기계적·전기적 물성증진도 가져올 수 있게 된다. 습식 화학적 분말합성법은 전술하였듯이 alkoxide의 가수분해를 이용하는 sol-gel 법과 금속의 염(salt) 용액을 이용하여, 화학적으로 화합물 침전을 얻거나 또는 공침전물(coprecipitate) 형태의 분말을 얻는, 침전법으로 나뉠 수 있다. 침전법의 근본원리는 pH 및 pCO3 등에 따른 이온종의 용해도 차이를 이용하는 것으로써 각 이온종에 따른 solubility product(ksp)를 이용하여 설명된다. 본 연구에서는 침전법을 사용한 Ba-, Pb-계 전자세라믹스의 분말합성에 대한 이론적 고찰과 공정개발 및 실험을 통한 물성증진 효과에 대해 알아보았다. 본 실험상의 전자세라믹스 조성은 강유전체, 세라믹반도체, 압효과에 대해 알아보았다. 본 실험상의 전자세라믹스 조성은 강유전체, 세라믹 반도체, 압전재료로 널리 사용되는 BaTiO3, PZT(PbZrO3-PbTiO3)와 수직 자기기록매체로 큰 가능성이 있으며 hard ferrite로 널리쓰이는 Ba-feerite(BaFe12O19)로써 수산화물 형태의 침전에 대한 기구(mechanism)와 물성에 대해 살펴보았다. 이러한 침전법에 의한 분말합성 과정에는 소결체의 물성에 영향을 미치는 pH 조절제나 원료에서 혼입될 수 있는 Na+, K+, Cl-, SO4- 등의 제거(washing 혹은 filtering)가 필수적이다. 그러나 침전법에서 얻게 되는 분말은 매우 미세하여 colloid를 형성하게 되며, 이러한 colloid 상태의 미세한 침전입자가 filtering media에 끼이게 되어 견고하면서도 상당한 부피를 가지는 filter cake을 형성하기 때문에 filtering에 많은 시간과 다량의 filtering agent (본 실험의 경우엔 증류수)가 필요하게 된다. 따라서 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 colloid 상태의 침전물을 얼렸다 녹이는 freezing process를 개발, 적용하여 그 원리 및 효과, 그로인한 분말형태를 관찰하여 보았다.

Adhesion of composite resin to tooth structure has been of tremendous signgicance in clinical dentistry. Due to the lack of adhesion between composite restorative resins and enamel and dentin, microleakage occurs at the tooth/restoration interface. This may lead to discoloration, secondary caries, marginal breakdown, postoperative sensitivity, and even pulpal pathology. According to extensive use of composite resin, every effort on improving bonding strength and reducing microleakage between a tooth and composite resin has been continued. This study was conducted to determine the difference in microleakage in enamel and dentin treated with air-abrasion, acid etching and combination when restored with composite resin. Class V cavities were prepared on 30 premolars. The specimens were divided into following groups. group 1:air-abrasion+Scotchbond Multi-purpose group 4 :air-abrasion+All-Bond 2 group 2:acid etching+Scotchbond Multi-purpose group 5 :acid etching+All-Bond 2 group 3:combination+Scotchbond Multi-purpose group 6 :combination+All-Bond 2 #combination:air-abrasion + acid etching The specimens were filled with Z-100 after application of Scotchbond Multi-purpose and All-Bond 2. Thermocycling was conducted by alternately dipping the specimens in $5^{\circ}C$ and $55^{\circ}C$ water for 30 seconds 500 times. 1% methylene blue was applied and the specimens were left for 24 hours at $37^{\circ}C$. After washing out the dye, the tooth was sectioned buccolingually along the axis. The sectioned surface was observed with stereoscope for dye penetration. The author has measured the microleakage in teeth prepared with air-abrasion, acid ethching and combination to study the difference in microleakage following different methods of tooth surface treatment and has come to following results. 1. In comparing microleakage between groups, group 1 and 4 showed statistically significant difference from group 2, 3, 5 and 6(p<0.05). There was no significant difference among group 2, 3, 5, 6(p>0.05) nor between group 1 and 4(p>0.05). 2. In comparing microleakage among tooth surface treatment methods, Air-abrasion group showed significantly more microleakage than acid etching group and combination(airabrasion + acid etching) group(p<0.05). Combination(acid etching+air-abrasion)group tended to show lesser microleakage than acid etching group, but this was not statistically significant(p>0.05). 3. In comparing microleakage between bonding agents, there was no statistically significant difference between Scotch bond Multi-purpose and All-Bond 2(p>0.05).

This study dyed rayon fabric using loess as a natural colorant. To obtain the optimal dyeing conditions, various dyeing conditions were examined (temperature, pH, time, and concentration). The color fastness was evaluated using standard washing and rubbing fastness tests. The results were as follows: The loess powder particle size ranged from 0.4 to $1.7{\mu}m$ with a distribution range of 1.1 to $1.4{\mu}m$, representing a fine and uniform manufactured loess powder. The loess component analysis showed a large amount of silicon dioxide and aluminum oxide. TheFT-IR spectra showed that the ammonium group in the rayon fabric produced N-H banding at $1,540cm^{-1}$. The highest K/S value for the rayon fabric was obtained when the pH was 8.0, and this value increased rapidly with a longer dyeing time and when increasing the loess concentration to 30% (w/v). Pre-treatment with a soybean solution produced the highest K/S value for the rayon fabric with a loess concentration of 30% (w/v). The SEM analysis showed a higher amount of loess adhered to the rayon fabric surface when increasing the loess concentration. However, pre-treatment with a cationic agent and soybean solution resulted in a much higher attachment of loess to the fabric surface. Thus, the experimental results showed that using a cationized fabric and pre-treatment with a soybean solution are more effective when dyeing rayon fabric with loess than when using only loess.

In order to establish highly efficient gene transfer condition at early stage of soybean transformation, various experiments were performed and compared their efficiencies by transient GUS analysis; those conditions are genotype determination of Korean soybean cultivars for amenability to Agro-infection, appropriate agar and selective agent concentration, orientation of explant placement, hormone pre-culture, and liquid selection condition. In the genotype screen of Korean soybean varieties, 14 amenable genotypes were selected. For efficient Agrobacterium washing, cefotaxime was chosen and hygromycin at the concentration of 10 and 15 ppm was used as selection agent in the media. Agar concentration was slightly better in 0.6% and 0.8% for both shoot and callus formation, and explant placement with adaxial side down showed high frequency of GUS expression. For wounding treatment, oriental needle was efficient than scalpel for shoot formation and gene transfer. To increase the frequency of gene transfer, hormone pre-treatment was applied. BA at the concentration of 5 and 10 ppm resulted in better survival at the late stage of selection in shoot elongation media. Selection in liquid media after hormone pre-treatment seemed to be effective to remove the escaped non-transformants at early stage of procedure. Considering the results obtained, Eunhakong could be the first choice as a material for soybean transformation among Korean soybean genotypes.
