This study shows an experimental investigation of a reversible nano colloidal damper, which is statically loaded. The porous matrix is composed from silica gel (labyrinth or central-cavity architecture), coated by organo-silicones substances, in order to achieve a hydrophobic surface. Water is considered as associated lyophobic liquid. Reversible colloidal damper static test rig and the measuring technique of the static hysteresis are described. Influence of the pore and particle diameters, particle architecture and length of the grafted molecule upon the reversible colloidal damper hysteresis is investigated, for distinctive types and mixtures of porous matrices. Variation of the reversible colloidal damper dissipated energy and efficiency with temperature, pressure, is illustrated. As a result, he proposed nano damper is effective one, which can be replaced the conventional damper.

The self assembled silver process and silver coating process after surface reforming for silica particle, were investigated to coat the silver to colloidal silica. The effects of silver amounts and reductant amounts on silver coating efficiencies were investigated. The silver coating process after surface reforming for silica particle using MPTS (3-Mercaptopropyl trimethoxysilane) and APTS (3-Aminopropyl trimethoxysilane), showed the higher coating efficiency and better antibacterial effect than the self assembled silver process.

A new colloidal silver (Ag) system is present in which a fine colloidal Ag is in situ deposited onto functionalized porous poly (ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) (poly (EGDMA)) microspheres. The effectiveness of Ag deposition was investigated considering the surface characteristics of poly (EGDMA) microspheres. The result reported in this study illustrates that the control of surface area and surface functionality (in this study, a hydroxyl group) of poly (EGDMA) microspheres is an important factor that determines practically the degree of deposition of colloidal Ag. The x-ray analysis showed that Ag nanoparticles were dispersed evenly inner and outer surfaces and had a face center cubic (fee) phase. In the preservative efficacy test, the Ag-containing poly (EGDMA) microspheres had a powerful anti-bacterial activity, showing a high potential for a new preservative in cosmetic industry.

Effect of Surface roughness on nanoscale adhesion was studied experimentally by using colloidal probe technique. Glass micro balls having the radius of $3.3\~17.4{\mu}m$ were glued at the end of AFM cantilevers to prepare colloidal probes. Adhesion force between the colloidal probe and Si-wafer was measured using pull-off force measuring method. Results showed that the measured adhesion forces are not the function of the radius of the glued balls because the ball surfaces are rough. It is also found that roughness parameters such as $R_a,\;R_q\;and\;R_{max}$ do not have important role on nanoscale adhesion. In order to find the effect of surface roughness on nanoscale adhesion, the bearing areas were extracted from the measured topography of glued balls. After normalizing the measured adhesion force with the bearing area, it was found that the normalized adhesion force kept constant as function of the radius of glued ball.

A subsurface containment system which is constructed by pumping a gelling liquid (Colloidal Silica) into the unsaturated medium is investigated by developing a mathematical model and conducting numerical simulations. The proposed model is verified by comparing experimentally and numerically determined hydraulic conductivities of gel-treated soil columns at different Colloidal Silica (CS) injection volumes. The numerical experiments indicate that an impermeable gel layer is formed within the time period twice the gel-point. At the Same normalized time, the CS solutions with lower NaCl concentrations result ill further migration and poor Performance in plugging the pore space.

전 세계적으로 반도체 연마제용으로 silica를 많이 사용하고 있으며, 주로 fumed silica 및 colloidal silica로 구분되어진다. 반도체 연마제로서의 가장 중요한 요소는 연마율, defect 및 uniformity 등이 있으며, 현재 defect 및 uniformity는 많은 연구개발을 통하여 증진되었지만 반도체 생산량과 직접 관련된 연마율을 증가시키는 기술은 화학약품 및 slurry의 농도 증가로만 가능하다. 이에 연마제의 전반적인 기능을 상승시켜 기존보다 연마율은 높이고, 결함율을 낮추며, 120nm 이상의 입자크기를 제조하여도 근일한 입도 분포도를 나타내어주고, 장기간 안정하게 사용가능하고, 친환경적인 반도체 연마제를 개발하였다.

Monodispersed colloidaly yttria(Y2O3) can be used in a variety of applications such as phosphors. IR transparent materials and fine ceramics. For preparing monodispersed yttria homogeneous precipitation has been regarded as a fovorable method that is monodispersed yttria can be obtained through calcining monodispersed colloidal compound of yttrium (eg:Y(OH)CO3.nH2O)which can be prepared by homogeneous precipitation with urea. It is however still required to find out the quantitative effects of important variables of precipitation such as concentration of yttrium and urea reaction temperature and initial pH of reactant even though homogeneous precipitation of Y3+ with urea has been studied extensively. Among the effects of these variables we investiga-ted 1) the effect of yttrium concentration on the shape and size of precipitate and the reation rate 2) range of yttrium concentration required to make monodispersed colloidal particles 3) the reason for limited concentra-tion range of yttrium and 4) the effect of ultrasonic radiation on the limited concentration.

Carbon dioxide was absorbed into the aqueous nanometer sized colloidal silica solution of 0-31 wt% and 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol of $0-2kmol/m^3$ in a flat-stirred vessel with the impeller of various sizes and speeds at $25^{\circ}C$ and 0.101 MPa to measure the absorption rate of $CO_2$. The volumetric liquid-side mass transfer coefficient$(k_La)\;of\;CO_2$ was used to obtain the empirical correlation formula containing the rheological behavior of the aqueous colloidal silica solution. Reduction of the measured $k_La$ was explained by the viscoelastic properties of the aqueous colloidal silica solution. The theoretical value of the absorption rate of $CO_2$ was estimated from the model based on the film theory accompanied by chemical reaction and compared with the measured value.

The trend of using more hardwood and recycled fibers, and closing more tightly of the paper mill white water system has resulted in build-up of fines as well as organic and inorganic contaminants in the white water. This changes in papermaking wet end requires developing chemical additive system that provides good fiber retention and drainage in closed white water system. In this study the effect of charge densities and chemical characteristics of microparticle systems consisted of cationic guar gums and anionic colloidal silica sols on drainage and retention have been examined. Results showed that higher charge density of cationic guar gum and anionic colloidal silica sol gave better retention and drainage. Particularly highly structured silica gave greater retention efficiency.

We have introduced the Pickering emulsion systems to generate novel confining geometries for the selforganization of monodisperse polymer microspheres using nanoparticle-stabilized emulsion droplets encapsulating the building block particles. Then, through the slow evaporation of emulsion phases by heating, these microspheres were packed into regular polyhedral colloidal clusters covered with nanoparticle-stabilizers made of silica. Furthermore, polymer composite colloidal clusters were burnt out leaving nonspherical hollow micro-particles, in which the configurations of the cluster structure were preserved during calcination. The selfassembled porous architectures in this study will be potentially useful in various applications such as novel building block particles or supporting materials for catalysis or gas adsorption.
