  • Silicon carbide-carbon fiber composites have been prepared by partially Infiltrating porous carbon fiber composites with liquid silicon at a reaction temperature of $1670^{\circ}C$. Reaction between molten silicon and the fiber preform yielded silicon carbide-carbon fiber composites composed of aggregates of loosely bonded SiC crystallites of about 10$\mu\textrm{m}$ in size and preserved the appearance of a fiber. In addition, the SiC/C fiber composites had carbon fibers coated with a dense layer consisted of SiC particles of sizes smaller than 1$\mu\textrm{m}$. The physical and mechanical properties of SiC/C fiber composites were discussed in terms of infiltrated pore volume fraction of carbon preform occupied by liquid silicon at the beginning of reaction. Lower bending strength of the SiC/C fiber composites which had a heterogeneous structure in nature, was attributed to the disruption of geometric configuration of the original carbon fiber preform and the formation of the fibrous aggregates of the loosely bonded coarse SiC particles produced by solution-precipitation mechanism.

  • An organic-inorganic hybrid solar cell fibers with characteristics such as formability, low-cost and tailorability was developed by deposition of C60 and CuPc on fiber surface. In spite of some variation according to the temperature of ITO deposition, the maximum open circuit voltage of 0.39V was attained at $150^{\circ}C$(1000end). The resulting solar cell showed the performances Isc=0.482, Voc=0.320, FF=0.285 ${\eta}_{e}=0.044$% which are comparable to one of other types of solar cells in literature.

  • The basalt fiber, which is found to be non-toxic and harmless to the human body, is expected to become a trend for industrial fibers as they have better properties of non-combustion, heat-resistant, soundproof, absorbent, moistureproof, wear-resistant, corrosion resistant, lightweight, and high strength properties. Thus, in this study, we analyzed the chemical compositions of basalt produced at seven sites on Jeju Island for making a high value inorganic insulation material. The results showed that the MgO content of basalt collected from the eastern part of Jeju Island was higher than 7.5 percent, while that of the western region was less than 6 percent.

  • A certified reference material (CRM) for the analysis of nutrient elements in an edible mushroom (Ganoderma lyceum) powder has been developed (KRISS CRM 108-10-011). The mass fractions of calcium (Ca), iron (Fe), and zinc (Zn) were measured by isotope dilution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ID ICP/MS). To dissolve the fungi cell wall of mushroom consisted of chitin fibers, sample preparation method by single reaction chamber type microwave-assisted acid digestion with acid mixtures was optimized. The mean measurement results obtained from 12 sample bottles were used to assign as the certified values for the CRM and the between-bottle homogeneities were evaluated from the relative standard deviations. The certified values were metrologically traceable to the definition of the kilogram in the International System of Units (SI). This CRM is expected to be used for validation of analytical methods or quality control of measurement results in analytical laboratories when they determine the mass fractions of elements in mushroom or other similar samples.

  • Flocculation of fibers and its distribution in paper are related to flocculation mechanisms, retention and drainage. Relationship between flocculation mechanisms and physical properties of paper has not been fully studied. In this study, flocculation of fibers was investigated by changing microparticles for flocculation mechanism analysis. When fillers were not added, formation and strength were deteriorated by 100, 300, or 500 ppm of linear PAM (all L-PAM), All L-PAM + 1200 ppm inorganic microparticle (1200-IM), all L-PAM + 120 ppm organic microparticle (120-OM), all L-PAM + 1200 ppm organic microparticle (1200-OM) because of too much flocculation. When 5, 15, $25\%$ (od.w/w) fillers were added, retention and drainage process were not affected by the extent flocculation when 500 ppm L - PAM, 500 ppm L - PAM + 1200- IM, and 500 ppm L - PAM + 120 ppm OM were added.

  • Variance of whiteness after graft copolymerization of acrylonitrile, methylmethacrylate and acrylamide onto bleached cellulose using Ce(IV) salt as initiators and the effect of homopolymer on the grafted fibers by photo-irradiation were studied. Also, the development of Yellowing were determined after carbon-arc radiation in a Fade-o-meter. The results were as follows: (1) Variation of whiteness of grafted cellulose fibers were influenced by graft-ratio, Inorganic-Organic Balance (IOB) of functional group in used monomers and adhering homopolymers on the grafed fibers. (2) Yellowing was not affected by the concentration of Ceric Ammonium Nitrate directly during reaction (eg. 0.008>0.006>0.014 M).

  • The degradation of IPA according to coating conditions was examined by $TiO_2/P-25-coated$ POF. In the photoactivity of $TiO_2-coated$ POF, ethanol solvent was higher activity than other solvents. Inorganic(KR-400), organic(A-9540) and inorganic$\cdot$organic hybrid(GPTMS, TMOS) resins were used as binder. Organic binder(A-9540) showed the highest activity for degradation of IPA, but organic binder was decomposed by $TiO_2$. Inorganic binder had lower binder ability than others, and lower adhesive than organic binders. In TMOS as inorganic · organic hybrid binder, activity of IPA degradation was decreased by addition of TMOS when the ratio of TMOS and P-25 was changed from 0.05 to 1.

  • The effects of binder on the mechanical properties of the preforms and metal matrix composites (MMCs) were studied. Fibers were $9Al_2O_3{\cdot}2B_2O_3(Alborex)$, HTZ and $Al_2O_3$ fibers(Saffil) and binders were organic binder, inorganic binder, polyacrylamide under various PH conditions. Compressive strength of the preform increased with the addition of inorganic binder. The polyacrylamide did not improve the permeability of the preforms. PH of the slurry should be controlled because it affects the viscosity of the slurry. Good preforms were obtained under following conditions : 3 wt% inorganic binder, 0.1 wt% organic binder, 0.1 wt% polyacrylamide and PH 9. Tensile tests of MMCs were conducted at $20^{\circ}C,\;150^{\circ}C,\;250^{\circ}C,\;350^{\circ}C$ using MTS(100KN USA). Wear tests were conducted under various sliding speeds. High temperature($250^{\circ}C$) tensile strengths of Alborex/Saffil/AC8A and HTZ/AC8A are 80% and 75% of the room temperature tensile strengths respectively. The tensile and wear properties of the Alborex/Saffil/AC8A are superior to that of the HTZ/AC8A. The wear behavior of HTZ/AC8A shows more orthotropic characteristic than that of Alborex/Saffil/AC8A.

  • The microstickes control effects of some fixing agents, including an inorganic PAC, an organic polyamine (PA) and polydiallydimethyl ammonium chloride (Pdadmac), and a high cationic starch (HCS), were investigated, together with their effects on wet end performances and physical properties of handsheets. Despite that the HCS and Pdadmac had lower cationic charge densities than the PA and PAC (the HCS being even lower), they gave higher zeta potentials to fibers, and lower turbidities, cationic demands and residual COD contents to the pulp liquid phases than the PA and PAC did. In all cases, the HCS showed even better effects than the Pdadmac. In addition, drainage speed was also much higher by the HCS treatments although paper formation was worsened. All the phenomena showed that the HCS can fix more dissolved and colloidal substances to cellulose fibers, indicating that the HCS functioned mainly with flocculation and even hydrogen bonding mechanisms. Data on optical properties further indicated that the HCS interacted preferentially with colloidal substances, since it fixed more 'dirty' microstickes to fibers which decreased more sheet brightness while increasing more sheet opacity (with both higher light absorption and scattering coefficients). Interestingly, the organic fixing agents did not decrease tensile, tearing, and folding strengths of paper sheets made from 100% recycled newsprint pulp, except when they were dosed in high amounts. On the contrary, the inorganic PAC had more serious negative effects on the strength properties, especially on folding endurance. The study suggested that proper use of the HCS can lead to better microstickies control effects than traditional agents and methods.
