Oil spills caused by the accidents have been occurred from house and factory waste, grounded tanker, the rupture of storage tank and oil pipelines, the deterioration of various industrial facilities, etc. Many oil spills result in contamination of shorelines and workplace. Fire and explosion may happen from these spills. There are several technologies used for clean-up application, which include use of oil dispersing agents, absorbents, solidifiers, booms and skimmers by physical, chemical, and biological methods. Methods for oil spill clean-up operation are classified into the absorption type, gel type and self-swelling type. Porous materials with oil absorptive properties are classified into micropore, mesopore, and macropore depending on their pore sizes. Recently, new porous materials with smaller size have been developed, but the selective oil absorption in water-in-oil interface demonstrates the macro pore size. In this study oil absorption effects were evaluated using the organic porous materials with a complex function of gel type and swelling type. Samples were subjected to analysis by FT-IR spectroscopy and were characterized in terms of gel formation and morphologies. Oil sorption capacity, pressure retention force and gel strength were also measured. From these results, the physicochemical reactivity before and after gelation was verified and the industrial applications of clean-up operation were suggested.

New method and device for the on-line measurement of soot concentration in a diesel engine oil are proposed, where the measurement principle is based mainly on attenuated internal total reflection. The detector were evaluated in various ranges of contaminated oils by carbon black particles. It was found that the proposed detector could be well used to monitor the oil deterioration due to soot contamination. Operational range of the detector was found from 0 to 5 mass percentage of soot content. Test results with water and fuel dilution showed that these effects were not remarkable. However, adsorption of carbon black particles onto the measurement surface was considered to be a critical problem of the detector. Effects of particle deposition on the interface was experimentally evaluated with the oil temperature and flow turbulence and discussed throughout this work.

The effects of electrolytes on electrochemical behavior from an oil thin layer interposed between a graphite electrode and an aqueous solution phase were examined. A hydrophobic electroactive species, tetrachloro-1,4-benzoquinone (TCQ), in a benzonitrile (EN) layer was employed to study ion transfer properties across the BN-water interface. Experimental results showed that hydrophobic cations as well as anions could be successfully used as ionic charge carriers. The addition of various salts into either the oil layers or the aqueous solutions offers deeper insight for the electrochemistry of the liquid thin layer system. When aqueous perchloric acid is interfaced with the BN films, the perchlorate ion of tetrahexylammonium perchlorate (THAP) substantially suppresses the dissociated proton concentration in the layer by the common ion effect while there is only a little change in the total acid concentration. Further approach by theoretical calculation makes it possible to quantitatively understand the effect of the electrolytes to the electrochemical responses of TCQ, which were previously reported (Anal. Chem. 73, 337 (2001)).

본 연구에서는 보조계면활성제 첨가가 nonylphenol ethoxylate (NP) 계면활성제, 물, 탄화수소 오일의 3성분으로 이루어진 시스템의 평형 및 동적 거동에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 실험에서 사용한 펜탄올, 옥탄올, 데칸올 등의 보조계면활성제는 모두 소수성 첨가제로 작용하였으며, 소수성 증가 효과는 알코올의 사슬 길이 증가 및 첨가량 증가에 따라 증가하였다. 계면활성제 시스템이 친수적인 조건에서는 비극성 오일의 종류에 상관없이 시간에 따라 오일의 크기가 감소하였으며, 마이셀 용액에 의한 탄화수소 오일의 가용화는 diffusion-controlled 메커니즘이 아닌, interface-controlled 메커니즘을 따름을 확인할 수 있었다. 반면에 소수성 조건에서는 과포화로 인하여 일어나는 자발적 유화 현상과 물과 계면활성제의 오일상으로의 확산으로 인한 오일의 크기 증가가 관찰되었다. 비극성 탄화수소 오일과 계면활성제 수용액 사이의 시간에 따른 계면장력 측정 결과는 동적 거동 실험결과와 일치하는 경향을 나타내었다. 한편 middle-phase 마이크로에멀젼을 포함한 3상이 형성되는 조건에서는 매우 낮은 계면장력으로 인하여 오일이 수용액 상에 빠른 속도로 가용화되었고 작은 방울 형태로 유화되었다.

물과의 발포반응에 의해 유츌유를 겔화할 수 있는 폴리우레탄 NCO prepolymer를 제조하기 위하여 폴리올(PTMG 및 GP)과 이소시아네이트(TDI)를 사용하여 NCO prepolymer를 합성하였다. 폴리올 각각의 분자량에 따라 합성한 NCO prepolymer를 이용하여 초기 유출유와 에멀젼된 유출유 그리고 유출유의 종류에 따라 유겔화율을 측정하였다. Bunker B 초기 유출유에 대하여 3관능성 폴리오인 GP1000의 경우 440%의 유겔화율은 나타내었으며, 유출유와 해수가 에멀젼(emulsion)된 상태에서는 2배 정도가 증가한 958%의 유겔화율을 나타내었다. 또한 Bunker B에 비해 점도가 높은 Bunker C의 에멀젼된 상태에서는 1098%의 유겔화율을 나타내었다. 사슬연장제가 투입된 2관능성 폴리올인 PTMG1000의 경우에는 에멀젼된 Bunker B에 대하여 910%의 유겔화율을 나타내었으며, 에멀젼된 Bunker C에 대하여 923%의 유겔화율을 나타내었다. 3관능성 폴리올을 사용하여 제조된 NCO prepolymer의 경우, 형성된 폴리우레탄 겔은 부드럽고 강한 특성을 가져 회수에 용이한 상태를 나타내었다.

We report a fabrication of carbon nanotube (CNT) monolayer thin film using liquid-liquid interface. The multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT), which were synthesized by the alumina template method formed a monolayer at the liquid-liquid interface after sonicating the MWCNT water-oil dispersion. Moreover, with the addition of ethanol, the MWCNT monlayer was also formed at the liquid-liquid interface. The monolayer is transferable onto solid substrates and the transferred film was observed using atomic force microscopy (AFM)

본 연구에서는 단백질과 기름의 농도가 분리대두단백질의 유화안정성에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 특히 유화안정성과 에멀젼의 기름입자크기 및 점도와의 상관관계를 구명하였으며, 또한 유화과정 중 단백질이 물과 기름 사이의 계면에 흡착하는 현상을 조사하였다. 단백질의 농도가 증가할수록 기름입자의 크기는 감소하고 점도는 증가하여 결과적으로 유화안정성이 증가하였다. 반면에 기름농도가 증가한 경우 기름입자의 크기와 점도가 모두 증가하였으며, 이 경우에는 두 요인의 상대적인 지배정도에 따라 에멀젼의 유화안정성이 결정되었다.

역동적인 파랑에 노출되는 경우 다양한 failure mode를 쉽게 드러내는 Oil boom의 성능을 개선하기 위해 가장 정교한 파랑모형인 spatially filtered Navier-Stokes 식을 LES (Large Eddy Simulation), 잔차응력에 대한 LDS (Lagrangian Dynamic Smagorinsky 모형), SPH (Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics) 기법을 활용하여 해석하는 새로운 수치모형이 제언되었다. 이어 부유식 Oil Boom의 누유특성을 규명하기 위해 oil spill, progressive wave, oil boom의 상호작용을 oil boom이 계류삭에 고정되어있는 경우와 oil boom의 excursion이 허용된 경우에 대해 각각 수치모의 하였다. 모의결과 oil boom의 skirt 길이가 수심의 30% 이상이고 excursion이 허용된 경우 oil spill의 차폐 기능은 극대화되는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이와 더불어 y = 1~2 m 사이에 오일막과 해수의 경계층에서 생성된 와류가 저면으로 확산되면서 시계방향과 반 시계방향의 와류가 엇갈리게 생성되는 coherent eddies가 관측되어 수리실험을 통해 그 존재가 알려진 Kelvin-Helmholz파의 성장과정과 계면으로부터의 일탈과정이 수치모의된 것으로 판단된다.

Kinetic and thermodynamic aspects of the interface transfer of cefoperazone and its pivaloyloxymethyl ester were studied in a two-phase system composed of aqueous buffers and n-octanol by using the absolute reaction rate theory. In terms of the net thermodynamic parameters for the process, ${\Delta}S$ increased and ${\Delta}F$ decreased as the lipophilicity increased. With the increased ratio of forward $(k_f)$ to backward rate constants $(k_b)$, the ester was more lipophilic than cefoperazone, but the aqueous solubility was reduced.

It was possible to produce W/O/W one step multiple emulsion on the system which satisfied following conditions. 1. 1-5％ of hydrophilic liquid surfactant over HLB20 and lipophilic liquid surfactant which has HLB 3∼5 2. Non wax copolymers as oil thickener 3. More than 0.5％ of carbomer as aqueous thickener 4. The manufacturing process which neutralize the dispersed carbomer (2.0％ in water), after emulsifying. For the selective addition into inner and outer aqueous phase, we melted the glucose in water before emulsifying. Using an Anthrone analysis method, we analyzed the encapsulation yield of glucose in inner water phase. It was possible to raise the water encapsulation yield of the multiple emulsion through the following conditions. 1. Using of anionic hydrophilic surfactant(HLB 40) and lipophilic surfactant (HLB 3∼5) 2. Controlling the ratio of hydrophilic surfactant and lipophilic surfactant 3. Strengthening interface with increase of non wax oil thickener. When the separated adding process of glucose was adopted, approximately 85％ of glucose was added selectively within inner aqueous phase.
