Isotropic pitch-based carbon fiber has been activated by steam diluted in nitrogen in order to characterize the microporosity. Especially, 40 wt% burn-off ACFs were prepared from different conditions to compare the pore structure and size. The ACFs were thinly sliced to investigate the inside pores by TEM and image analyzer. As expected, the adsorption characteristics of these ACFs were quite different from one another because of different pore structure and size. Most pores are not slit-shaped but rather round. Small round micropores become broad and irregular as increasing the activation time and temperature.

본 연구는 유해 화학 물질 방출에 의해 손상 받은 환자들을 대상으로 중증 화상에 관하여 연관된 요인들의 강도를 밝힘을 목적으로 하였다. 2010년 1월 1일부터 2014년 12월 31일 까지 화학 손상으로 본원 응급실을 방문했던 총 446명의 환자를 조사 하였다. 중증 화상은 화학 손상의 중증도를 대변하는 종속변수로 사용되었다. 중증 화상과 관련이 있는 독립변수들을 밝혀내기 위한 통계 방법으로 카이 제곱 검정(Chi-square test, CST)과 이분형 로지스틱 회귀분석(Binary logistic regression test, BLRA)이 사용되었다. CST상, 중증 화상에 관하여 여성과 사고 현장에 있던 군, 다발 부위 손상 군이 동시에 연관성을 보였다(p<0.05). BLRA상 사고 현장에 있던 군과 폭발 군에 비하여 누출 군과 입원 군에 비하여 퇴원 군이 동시에 중증 화상과 관련 있었다(p<0.05). 본 연구에서는 사고 현장에 존재 여부가 중증 화상에 관하여 가장 중요한 요인 이었다. 뿐만 아니라 성별과 손상의 개수, 사고 노출 기전(폭발에 비해 누출), 응급실 진료 후 배치(입원에 비해 퇴원)가 또한 중증 화상과 관련이 있었다.

Array-based gas sensors now offer the potential of a robust analytical approach to odor measurement for medical use. We are developing a fast reliable method for detection of microbial infection by monitoring the headspace from the infected wound. In this paper, we present initial results obtained from wound-state monitoring for burn patients using an electronic nose incorporating an automated solid-phase microextraction (SPME) desorption system to enable the system to be used for clinical validation. SPME preconcentration is used for sampling of the headspace air and the response of the sensor module to variable concentrations of volatiles emitted from SPME fiber is evaluated. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry studies prove that living bacteria, the typical infectious agents in clinical practice, can be distinguished from each other by means of a limited set of key volatile products. Principal component analysis results give the first indication that infected patients may be distinguished from uninfected patients. Microbial laboratory analysis using clinical samples verifies the performance of the system.

Repair and strengthening is necessary to extend the service life of existing buildings. Polymer-modified cement mortar (PCM) has been extensively used as a high performance material particularly for finishing and repairing works in concrete building because of itsexcellent adhesion, waterproofing, resistance to chemical attack, and workability. As PCM contains organic polymer, it is necessary to clarify its properties at high temperature under fire, on which sufficient data are not available. This paper evaluated the burn-up characteristics of polymer-modified cement mortar with cone calorimeter test, non-combustibility test and flammability test with experimental parameters such as the types of polymer, unit-polymer content, polymer-cement ratio and thickness of the specimen.

This paper investigate the effects of the variations of engine operation condition in the flame kernel formation and developmnet . A model for calculating the initial kernel development in spark ignition engines is formualted. It considered input of electrical energy, combustion energy release and heat transfer to the spark plyg, cylinder head, and unburned mixture. The model also takes into accounts strain rate of initial kernel and residual gas fraction. The breakdown process and the subsequent electrical power input initially control the kernel growth while intermediate growth is mainly dominated by diffusion or conduction. Then, the flame propagates by the chemical energy and turbulent flame expansion. Flame kernel development also influenced by engine operating conditions, for example, EGR rate, air-fuel ration and intake manifold pressure.

The effects of various drugs on the alleviation of the symptoms of chemical bums were evaluated in mice to formulate topical antiblister preparations. After a chemical bum was induced on the mouse dorsal skin with 2-chloroethylethyl sulfide, the drug was applied on the disease site. The effectiveness of the drug was evaluated by determining blister size, necrosis score of skin and appearance of the chemical burns induced. It showed that steroids and aminoglycoside antibiotics had a tendency to protect skin cell, and antihistamines decreased the size of chemical bums. While oleaginous base resulted in deleterious effect, hydrophilic base didn't show a significant difference on the alleviation of the chemical burn symptoms compared to the control.

In order to be applicable to the combustion modelling of stratified charged combustion like that of - lean burn and GDI engine, the correlations of laminar burring velocities fur several hydrocarbon fuels and methanol are needed over a wide range of equivalence ratio, pressure and temperature. In this study, these correlations are modeled in the 1311owing form based on the experimental and Muller\`s modeling results for several fuels, where $\alpha$, ξ, and ξ are functions of pressure and temperature, $S_{L}$ =$\alpha$ exp[-ξ($\Phi$-$\Phi$$_{m}$)$^{2}$ -exp {-ζ($\Phi$-$\Phi$$_{m}$)}-ζ($\Phi$-$\Phi$$_{m}$)]. By using the results calculated by PREMIX code with Sloane\`s detailed chemical reaction mechanism for propane, it is verified that the coefficients of the abode modeling can be determined by considering laminar burning velocity data only in a range of equivalence ratio less than $\Phi$$_{m}$. Therefore, Muller\`s modeling results can be adopted leer modeling of the pressure and temperature dependency. Compared with the results of the existing Keck'and Gulder's models, those of the present one showed the good agreement of the recent experimental data, especially in the range of lean and rich sides.s.des.s.

Fluorinated compounds mainly used in the semiconductor industry are potent greenhouse gases. Recently, thermal plasma gas scrubbers have been gradually replacing conventional burn-wet type gas scrubbers which are based on the combustion of fossil fuels because high conversion efficiency and control of byproduct generation are achievable in chemically reactive high temperature thermal plasma. Chemical equilibrium composition at high temperature and numerical analysis on a complex thermal flow in the thermal plasma decomposition system are used to predict the process of thermal decomposition of fluorinated gas. In order to increase economic feasibility of the thermal plasma decomposition process, increase of thermal efficiency of the plasma torch and enhancement of gas mixing between the thermal plasma jet and waste gas are discussed. In addition, noble thermal plasma systems to be applied in the thermal plasma gas treatment are introduced in the present paper.

Oral mucosal burns can occur after contact with various chemical agents, and commonly manifest as areas of mucosal sloughing and ulceration. Policresulen (Albothyl, Celltrion Pharm Inc.) is an over-the-counter topical antiseptic that is frequently used to treat stomatitis. Policresulen solution is highly acidic, with an approximate pH of 0.6; it can thus cause mucosal injury when improperly applied in the oral cavity. Here, we present a rare case of an oral mucosal burn resulting from incorrect self-administration of policresulen and emphasize the importance of increasing understanding of this adverse drug event among consumers and health professionals.

To satisfy the increasing medical demanding especially for sever burn patients to regenerate full thickness wound cure, this study developed dermis with gelatin based scaffold and perform the biocompatibility tests. To prepare scaffold 30% of gelatin was mixed with sieved salt and dried in the mold to shape then, cross linked with a water-soluble cross-linker, EDAC. Preparing the cell for seeding from a rabbit skin, the fibroblast and keratinocyte were successfully isolated and cultured in vitro. After cell and scaffold were ready, the fibroblast was seeded to the scaffold (∼10$\^$6/ cell/cm ) for preparing dermis and keratinocyte was cultured until forming the sheet. (omitted)
