염화나트륨은 우리 몸의 체액에 존재하며, 혈액 속에 약 0.9 wt%의 농도로 존재하여 삼투압을 유지하는 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 그러나 사람들이 섭취하는 소금의 양은 증가하는 추세이며, 과량 섭취로 인해 고혈압 등의 원인이 되기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 생체적합성 이온성 고분자들의 특정 반대이온을 칼슘과 칼륨으로 치환시켜 나트륨 이온과의 이온교환을 통해 고분자에 나트륨이 흡착되어 대변으로 배출시킬 수 있는지를 in vitro 실험과 in vivo 실험을 통해 연구하였다. 조사된 고분자들 중 칼슘과 칼륨의 폴리스티렌설폰산, 칼슘 치환된 카라기난과 타마린드가 우수한 나트륨 치환 능력을 보유하고 있음을 확인하였고, 체온과 인공위액 및 인공장액의 조건에서도 나트륨 치환능을 유지하는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 고분자들의 난용성 특징을 통해 구강 내에서는 맛의 변화를 주지 않으면서 나트륨을 흡착해 배설하는 메카니즘을 나트륨 과다 섭취에 따른 문제 해결을 위해 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

In the present work, to clarify the mechanism of the neutral salt effect on the alkaline hydrolysis of PET, many salts with different cations like LiCl, NaCl, KCl, CsCl were added to the aqueous alkaline solutions. Then PET was hydrolyzed with aqueous solutions of many salts in alkali metal hydroxides under various conditions. Some conclusions obtained from the experimental results were summarized as follows. The reaction rate of the alkaline hydrolysis of PET was increased by the addition of neutral salts and In k was increased nearly linearly with the square root of ionic strength of reaction medium. This fact suggested that the ionic strength effect by Debye-Huckel and Bronsted theory was exerted on the reaction. The specific salt effect was also observed. The reaction rate was increased with the increase in the electrophilicity of cations of neutral salts, i. e., in the order of $Cs^+$/ < $K^+$/ $a^+$/ $i^$^+$. It was considered that the reaction rate was increased in the order of C $s^+$. < $K^+$. $a^+$. $i^+$. because the lowering effect of the cations on the negative charge of PET surface was increased with the electrophilicity of cations. It was thought that $E_{a}$ was increased because the cations of neutral salts decreased the negative charge of PET surface. It, however, was inferred from the increase in ${\Delta}$S＊ and the decrease in the ${\Delta}$G＊ that the cations of neutral salts associated with PET increased the collision frequency between carbonyl carbon and OH- ion and then accelerated the reaction rate.te.

반추동물의 생산효율을 향상시킬 목적으로 반추위 환경을 조절하려는 노력들이 수십년간 지속되어 오면서 그동안 주로 사료급여 및 사양관리 시스템 개발(NRC, 2001)이 근간을 이루어 왔으나, 최근에는 유전공학, 효소공학, 생물공학, 미생물공학, 천연물화학 등의 발전으로 식물추출물, 항생제, 미생물제제, 계면활성제 등 다양한 분야에서 연구가 진행되고 있다 (Yang과 Russell, 1993; 이 등, 1997; Lee 등, 2003; Lee와 Ha, 2003; Busquet 등, 2006). 그 중, 계면활성제인 surfactant는 미생물 세포막 표면에 부착하여 미생물에 대한 산소공급을 차단함으로써 호기성 미생물 성장을 감소시키며 (Hulme와 Stranks, 1970), 세포내, 외의 효소를 유리시켜 효소기능 및 분비를 촉진 하는 것 (Reese와 Maguire, 1969; Munn 등, 1983; Yazdi 등, 1990)으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 surfactant의 작용원리를 이용하여 반추위내 혐기성 발효를 촉진시키기 위한 제제로서 그 가능성이 높이 평가되어 왔는데, 지금까지 반추위 발효 조절 기능이 밝혀진 계면활성제는 비이온성으로서 반추동물의 소화율과 생산성에 기여할 수 있는 제제로서 인정받고 있다. 계면활성제를 이용한 일련의 시험 중, 앞서 수행한 비이온성 계면활성제와 양쪽 이온성(+/－) 계면활성제를 이용한 시험에서 비이온성 계면활성제는 in vitro 반추위 발효양상에 매우 긍정적인 결과를 얻었으나 양쪽 이온성(+/－) 계면활성제는 반추위 미생물에 오히려 독성으로서 작용하는 결과를 얻었다(De Oude, 1992). 또한 양(+)이온성과 음(－)이온성 계면활성제에 대한 국내의 연구가 전무한 사항이라 참고 자료를 찾을 수가 없었다. 따라서 본 시험은 일반적으로 많이 사용하는 양(+)이온 또는 음(－)이온성을 띄는 계면활성제를 선발하여 반추위 발효 성상 및 미생물 합성에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 규명해 보고자 실시하였다.

이온성 액체는 일반적으로 거대 헤테로 고리 양이온과 무기 음이온으로 이루어진 염으로, 상온에서 액체로 존재한다. 따라서 이온성 액체의 물성은 양이온과 음이온의 종류, 알킬기의 수에 영향을 받으므로 그 조합에 의해 이온성 액체 각각의 물성이 달라진다. 또한 비휘발성, 열적 안정성, 넓은 전기 화학적 범위를 가지므로 기존의 유기용매를 대체할 주목할 만한 청정 용매(Green solvent)이다. 본 연구에서는 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([BMIM][Br]), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium Chloride ([BMIM][Cl]), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium iodide ([BMIM][I]) 그리고 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([BMIM][$BF_4$])을 합성하였으며, 그 중 [BMIM][Br], [BMIM][I], [BMIM][$BF_4$]의 밀도, 점도, 굴절률, 열용량과 이온전도도를 293.2~323.2 K의 온도범위에서 측정하였다. 밀도와 굴절률은 [BMIM][I]가 세 이온성 액체 중 가장 높았으며, 점성은 [BMIM][Br]가 가장 높았다. 열용량은 [BMIM][Br]보다 [BMIM][$BF_4$]가 높았으며, 이온 전도도는 [BMIM][I]보다 [BMIM][$BF_4$]가 더 높았다.

To investigate the solute pattern of salt marsh plants in Suncheon Bay in Korea, plants and soil samples were collected at three sites from July to September 2011. The soil pH around the investigated species was weakly alkaline, 6.9-8.1. The total ion and Cl- content of site 1 gradually increased, while those of site 2 and site 3 were lowest in August and highest in September. The exchangeable $Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$ and $K^+$ in the soil were relatively constant during the study period, but the soil exchangeable $Na^+$ content was variable. Carex scabrifolia and Phragmites communis had constant leaf water content and very high concentrations of soluble carbohydrates during the study period. However, Suaeda malacosperma and S. japonica had high leaf water content and constant very low soluble carbohydrate concentrations. Carex scabrifolia accumulated similar amounts of $Na^+$ and $K^+$ ions in its leaves. Phragmites communis contained a high concentration of $K^+$ ions. Suada japonica and S. malacosperma had more $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$ ions than $K^+$ ions in their leaves. Suaeda japonica had higher levels of glycine betaine in its leaves under saline conditions than C. scabrifolia and P. communis. Consequently, the physiological characteristics of salt marsh chenopodiaceous plants (S. japonica and S. malacosperma) were the high storage capacity for inorganic ions (especially alkali cations and chloride) and accumulation of glycine betaine, but monocotyledonous plant species (C. scabrifolia and P. communis) showed high $K^+$concentrations, efficient regulation of ionic uptake, and accumulation of soluble carbohydrates. These characteristics might enable salt marsh plants to grow in saline habitats.

Seawater desalination is a technology through which salt and other constituents are removed from seawater to produce fresh water. While a significant amount of fresh water is produced, the desalination process is limited by the generation of concentrated brine with a higher salinity than seawater; this imposes environmental and economic problems. In this study, characteristics of seawater from three different locations in South Korea were analyzed to evaluate the feasibility of crystallization to seawater desalination. Organic and inorganic substances participating in crystal formation during concentration were identified. Then, prediction and economic feasibility analysis were conducted on the actual water flux and obtainable salt resources (i.e. Na2SO4) using membrane distillation and energy-saving crystallizer based on multi-stage flash (MSF-Cr). The seawater showed a rather low salinity (29.9~34.4 g/L) and different composition ratios depending on the location. At high concentrations, it was possible to observe the participation of dissolved organic matter and various ionic substances in crystalization. When crystallized, materials capable of forming various crystals are expected. However, it seems that different salt concentrations should be considered for each location. When the model developed using the Aspen Plus modular was applied in Korean seawater conditions, relatively high economic feasibility was confirmed in the MSF-Cr. The results of this study will help solve the environmental and economic problems of concentrated brine from seawater desalination.

Particulate matters(less than 10 $\mu$m, PM10) at Kanghwa and Yangyang, which are located in the western and the eastern coastal regions in Korea, were measured in using low volume air sampler from December 1995 to November 1996, and their characteristics were investigated from the view point of background level.(and in order to characterize the particulate matters.) The particulate matters were analyzed for major water soluble ionic components(SO$_{4}^{2-}$, NO$_{3}^{-}$, Cl$^{-}$, Na$^{+}$, NH$_{4}^{+}$, K$^{+}$, Mg$^{2+}$ and Ca$^{2+}$) by ion chromatography. Mass concentrations of particulate matters were $48.77 \pm 22.45 \mug/m^{3}$ at Kanghwa and $54.04 \pm 32.98 \mug/m^{3}$ at Yangyang and SO$_{4}^{2-}$, NO$_{3}^{-}$ and NH$_{4}^{+}$ contributed largely to water soluble ionic components. nss(non sea salt)-SO$_{4}^{2-}$, contributed more than 95 percentage to SO$_{4}^{2-}$ and nss-K$^{+}$ and nss-Ca$^{2+}$ also contributed high percentages to K$^{+}$ and Ca$^{2+}$. It was supposed that most SO$_{4}^{2-}$, was originated from anthropogenic sources, and K$^{+}$ and Ca$^{+}$ were mainty originated from soil. The results of factor analysis suggested possibility of interpreting the correlation between air pollutants and regional characteristics.

Characteristics of anbient at Korean, Cheju Island have been studied during the intensive field study period on March 11 .sim. 17, 1994 in collaboration with other research organizations from Korea and abroad. The particle size distribution was measured using an Electrical Aerosol Analyzer(EAA) and an Optical particle Counter(OPC). Fine particles(PM1 and PM3) have been collected by filter pack samplers and their ionic compositions have been analyzed. sampling errors inherent to the filter pack sampling method are discussed and the method to analyze those errors are presented. The rine mass concentrations of this study show very similar mass concentrations when Seoul is clear. This is somewhat surprising result, because the most of researchers believe that Kosan is one of the cleanest area in Korea. Bimodal volume size distributions with peak values around 0.1 .sim. 0.2.mu.m and 3.mu.m in particle dimeter were observed for most of the measurement period, particle mass loadings and ionic composition data show a large fraction of particles are from non-sea salt origins. Estimation of water content and acidity of particles based on measurement by a gas/particle equilibrium model, SCAPE, reveals that the pH values of particles are comparable to or lower than those estimated based on measurements in Los Angeles, U.S.A. during the SCAQS study. These findings with the meteorological conditions during the study period suggest that the particles collected during the period have originated from outside Cheju Island.

Dye-sensitized solar cell(DSSC) have been considered one of the promising alternatives to conventional solar cells, because of their low cost, easy fabrication and relatively high energy conversion efficiency. However, although the cell offers reasonable efficiency at least 11%, the use of a liquid electrolyte placed technological challenges for achieving the desired durability and operational stability of the cell. In order to prevent or reduce electrolyte leakage considerable efforts have been made, such as p-type semiconductor or organic hole-transport material that better mechanical properties and simple fabrication processes. In this work, we synthesized solid-state electrolyte containing LiI and KI metal salt with starting materials of poly ethylene oxide to substitute liquid electrolyte enhance the ionic conductivity and solar conversion efficiency. Li+ leads to faster diffusion and higher efficiency and K+ leading to higher ionic conductivity. The efficiency of poly ethylene oxide/LiI system electrolyte is 1.47% and poly ethylene oxide/potassium electrolyte is 1.21%. An efficiency of 3.24% is achieved using solid-state electrolyte containing LiI and KI concentrations. The increased solar conversion efficiency is attributed to decreased crystallinity in the polymer that leads to enhanced charge transfer.
