  • Titanium dioxide ($TiO_2$), which is one of the most basic materials in our daily life, plays a key role for environment purification. We synthesized $TiO_2$ nanoparticles by the hydrolysis reactions of titanium tetraisopropoxide using $HNO_3$ as a peptizing agent or $CH_3COOH$ as a chelating agent in the sol-gel method. The powder consisted of a rod shape or a spherical shape according to the concentration and kind of acid. The physical properties of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were investigated with X-ray diffraction, SEM, BET analysis, and UV-Vis spectrophotometer.

  • The carbon nano-structured materials could be applied to the fields of advanced fillers, templates, electrode materials, sensor, storage, and absorption materials. The polyacrylonitrile (PAN) based carbon nano-particles provide the remarkable properties of high specific surface area, large pore volume, chemical inertness, and good mechanical stability. In this study, well-defined carbon nano-particles were obtained through pyrolysis of polyacrylonitrile based particles. The precursor nano-particles were prepared by modified aqueous dispersion polymerization using hydrophilic poly(vinyl alcohol) in a water/ N,N-dimethylformamide mixture media. Synthesized precursor nanoparticles have relatively monodisperse particles ranging 80 ~ 250nm. Stable spherical particles are obtained without coagulum or secondary particles in our system. The characteristic of the carbon nanoparticles were investigated in terms of surface area, morphology, and size distribution.

  • Irradiation offers an effective and simple means to extend shelf-life of meat and improve processing properties of meat products. Many researches have been conducted to evaluate the effects of irradiation on meats and meat products. There were some interesting reports such as increase of redness and tenderness of meat and decrease of carcinogenic N-nitrosamines and residual nitrite in cured meat products by irradiation. And, the safety of irradiated products have been also studied. Lipid oxidation and off-odor induced by irradiation can be minimized by appropriate controls of irradiation and storage condition such as addition of antioxidants or oxygen exclusion packaging. The objective of this paper is to introduce the effect of gamma irradiation on quality of meats and meat products reported from the previous researches.

  • Recent development in the field of RE-Ba-Cu-O (REBCO, RE: Y or rare earth elements) bulk high-Tc superconductors (HTS) is reviewed in the present paper. After the fatal weak link problem of sintered REBCO superconductors has been overcome by melt processing, this field has been greatly advanced during last ten years. The critical current density $J_c$ at 77 K has been enhanced by introducing effective flux pinning sites into the $REBa_2Cu_3O_y$ (RE123) superconducting matrix. Large melt-textured REBCO bulk crystals have been fabricated with the TSMG(top-seeded melt growth) technique. Mechanical properties of REBCO bulks have been improved by using the Ag additive or epoxy resin. Real bulk applications such as current lead, fault current limiter, flywheel energy storage system, magnetic field source, magnetic separation system, and etc., surely come true near future.

  • The development of two-dimensional graphene layers has recently attracted considerable attention because of its tremendous application in various research fields. Semi-metal materials have received significant attention because of their excellent biocompatibility as well as distinct physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. Taking into account the technical importance of graphene in various fields, such as complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor technology, energy-harvesting and -storage devices, biotechnology, electronics, light-emitting diodes, and wearable and flexible applications, it is considered to be a multifunctional component. In this regard, material scientists and researchers have primarily focused on two typical problems: i) direct growth and ii) low-temperature growth of graphene. In this review, we have considered only cold growth of graphene. The review is divided into five sections. Sections 1 and 2 explain the typical characteristics of graphene with a short history and the growth methods adopted, respectively. Graphene's direct growth at low temperatures on a required substrate with a well-established application is then precisely discussed in Sections 3 and 4. Finally, a summary of the review along with future challenges is described in Section 5.

  • The development of nanostructured functional materials derived from biomass and/or waste is of growing importance for creating sustainable energy-storage systems. In this study, nanoporous carbonaceous materials containing numerous heteroatoms were fabricated from waste coffee grounds using a top-down process via simple heating with KOH. The nanoporous carbon nanosheets exhibited notable material properties such as high specific surface area (1960.1 m2 g−1), numerous redox-active heteroatoms (16.1 at% oxygen, 2.7 at% nitrogen, and 1.6 at% sulfur), and high aspect ratios (>100). These unique properties led to good electrochemical performance as supercapacitor electrodes. A specific capacitance of ~438.5 F g−1 was achieved at a scan rate of 2 mV s−1, and a capacitance of 176 F g−1 was maintained at a fast scan rate of 100 mV s−1. Furthermore, cyclic stability was achieved for over 2000 cycles.

  • Electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs) are promising candidates for energy storage devices in electronic applications. An EDLC yields high power density but has low specific capacitance. Carbon material is used in EDLCs owing to its large specific surface area, large pore volume, and good mechanical stability. Consequently, the use of carbon materials for EDLC electrodes has attracted considerable research interest. In this paper, in order to evaluate the electrochemical performance, graphene is used as an EDLC electrode with flake sizes of 3, 12, and 60 nm. The surface characteristic and electrochemical properties of graphene were investigated using SEM, BET, and cyclic voltammetry. The specific capacitance of the graphene based EDLC was measured in a 1 M $TEABF_4/ACN$ electrolyte at the scan rates of 2, 10, and 50 mV/s. The 3 nm graphene electrode had the highest specific capacitance (68.9 F/g) compared to other samples. This result was attributed to graphene's large surface area and meso-pore volume. Therefore, large surface area and meso-pore volume effectively enhances the specific capacitance of EDLCs.

  • This study was carried out to establish a method for the detection of irradiated glutinous rice by measuring pulsed photostimulated luminescence (PPSL) and viscometric properties. Viscosity was determined using a Brookfield DV-III rotation viscometer at 3$0^{\circ}C$ and measured at 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, and 210 rpm. All irradiated samples indicated a decrease in viscosity with increasing stirring speeds (rpm) and irradiation doses. Treatments with 2∼5 kGy significantly decreased the viscosity. The photon counts of the irradiated glutinous rice were measured by PPSL and the photon counts of the non-irradiated and irradiated glutinous rice measured immediately after irradiation exhibited an increase with increasing irradiation dose. The photon counts of irradiated glutinous rice almost disappeared with the lapse of time when stored under normal room conditions, but was still possible to detect after 12 months of darkroom storage. Consequently, these results indicate that the detection of irradiated glutinous rice is possible by both viscometric and PPSL methods.
