Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) is a power generation system to convert chemical energy of fuels and oxidants to electricity directly by electrochemical reactions. As a catalyst support for PEMFCs, carbon black has been generally used due to its large surface area and high electrical conductivity. However, under certain circumstances (start up/shut down, fuel starvation, ice formation etc.), carbon supports are subjected to serve corrosion in the presence of water. Therefore, it would be desirable to switch carbon supports to corrosion-resistive support materials such as metal oxide. $TiO_2$ has been attractive as a support with its stability in fuel cell operation atmosphere, low cost, commercial availability, and the ease to control size and structure. However, low electrical conductivity of $TiO_2$ still inhibits its application to catalyst support for PEMFCs. In this paper, to explore feasibility of $TiO_2$ as a catalyst support for PEMFCs, $TiO_2$ nanofibers were synthesized by electrospinning and calcinated at 600, 700, 800 and $900^{\circ}C$. Effects of calcination temperature on crystal structure and electrical conductivity of electrospun $TiO_2$ nanofibers were examined. Electrical conductivity of $TiO_2$ nanofibers increased significantly with increasing calcination temperature from $600^{\circ}C$ to $700^{\circ}C$ and then increased gradually with increasing the calcination temperature from $700^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$. It was revealed that the remarkable increase in electrical conductivity could be attributed to phase transition of $TiO_2$ nanofibers from anatase to rutile at the temperature range from $600^{\circ}C$ to $700^{\circ}C$.

This study was undertaken to provide a drinking water quality on the basis of physicochemical properties. In this study, the 25 samples of supply waters of the Taejon area were sampled twice (February and August in 1999). Hydrochemistry of the supply water belongs to the $Ca^{2＋}$-${HCO_3}^{-1}$ type, whereas the supply water was characterized by the relatively significant enrichment of ${Ca}^{2+}$, ${Na}^{2+}$, ${K}^{2+}$, ${Cl}^{2+}$ ions and heavy metals compared to the original water from the Daecheong lake. Generally, the supply water has a mean values for $10.7^{\circ}C$ of temperature, 6.86 of pH, -12 mV of Eh, 88 ${\mu}S$/cm of EC and 70.379 mg/l of TDS in February, whereas the waters of the same sites in August are a slightly high temperature ($26.1^{\circ}C$), TDS (78.069 mg/l) and extremely high EC (442 ${\mu}S$/cm) value. These values are similar with physicochemical properties of the original lake water depending on the seasonal differences. Results of speciation calculation indicate that potentially toxic ions might exist mainly in the forms of free metal (${Cu}^{2+}$ or ${Zn}^{2+}$) and a small amount of ${CO_3}^{2-}$and ${OH}^{-}$in the supply water. The water seemed to be in equilibrium with kaolinite field of the normal stability diagrams for the natural water. Based on enrichment parameter of the supply water normalized by original lake water composition, the average value of those parameter can be calculated with nearly 1.00, but the those values for Cu＋Zn possible source of decrepit pipe lines are 126.75 in February and 115.63 in August samples. The parameter values varied with sampling sites, however, do not exceed by chemistry of drinking water standard. Solid compounds remained on the membrane filter papers after filtration are adhered to pale yellow or yellowish brown colored dissolved solids and precipitates, which are coated by 0.02 to 0.35 mm thick per 500 ml with colloidal particles of about 1 to 2${\mu}m$ size. The particles are mainly Fe-Cu-Zn compounds and partly detected to Mn and Pb.

본 연구에서는 용매열합성법(solvothermal method)을 이용하여 매크로 기공의 알루미나 튜브 지지체 위에 나노기공 $Cu_3(BTC)_2$ 분리막을 제조하였다. In-situ 용매열합성법을 이용하는 경우, 매크로 기공의 알루미나 지지체 위에 균일한 핵생성과 성장을 통해 연속적이고 균열이 없는 $Cu_3(BTC)_2$ 층을 형성하기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 용매열합성 전에 알루미나 지지체 표면을 $200^{\circ}C$로 가열한 상태에서 Cu 전구체 용액을 분무하여 지지체 표면을 개질한 후, 용매열합성법을 수행하여 연속적이고 균열이 없는 $Cu_3(BTC)_2$ 튜브형 분리막을 제조할 수 있었다. 합성된 $Cu_3(BTC)_2$ 분리막은 XRD, FE-SEM 및 기체투과 실험 등을 통해 분석하였다. $5{\mu}m$의 두께를 가진 $Cu_3(BTC)_2$ 튜브형 분리막을 통한 단일기체 투과실험 결과, $80^{\circ}C$에서 $H_2$가 가지는 투과도는 $7.8{\times}10^{-7}mol/s{\cdot}m^2{\cdot}Pa$이고, $H_2/N_2$, $H_2/CO_2$의 이상선택도는 각각 11.94, 12.82로 계산되었다.

물 시료에 존재하는 극 미량의 니켈과 코발트를 착물로 형성시켜 이온 교환수지 서스펜션에 흡착시켜 분리 농축하여 정량하는 방법을 연구하였다. 리간드로 APDC (ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamnate)를 사용하여 극 미량 이온들을 착물로 형성시켜 농축한 다음, 전열 원자흡수 분광광도법으로 정량하였다. 이때 착물 형성을 위한 수용액의 pH와 착화제인 APDC의 양, 흡착을 위한 이온교환 수지의 종류 및 저어주는 시간, 역 분산에 사용하는 산의 종류 및 농도, 초음파 진동시간 등의 실험조건들을 최적화 하였다. 시료용액의 pH를 5로 조절하고 APDC의 양을 몰 비로 분석원소 전체의 430배 이상 첨가하여 코발트와 니켈을 정량적으로 착물을 형성시켰다. 이온교환 수지는 음이온 형태의 Dowex 2-X8이 우수하였다. pH를 조절한 시료용액, 리간드 및 수지 서스펜션을 혼합하고 1분간 저어주어 흡착을 완전하게 하였다. 역 분산을 위해서는 0.1 M 염산이 가장 좋았고, 이때 막 필터로 거른 교환 수지를 초음파 진동기에서 7분간 진동하면 충분하였다. 팔라듐을 염산과 함께 사용하면 매트릭스를 개선하여 재현성과 감도가 개선되었다. 바탕흡수 신호표준편차의 세배에 해당하는 검출한계는 Co 0.36 ng/mL, Ni 0.27 ng/mL로 극미량 검출이 가능하였고 시료에 일정량 첨가한 분석원소의 회수율은 각각 99-102%와 100-105% 이었다.

본 연구는 Zn의 노출조건에서 Zn의 농도가 어류의 조직과 생리에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 붕어의 아가미, 선장, 간, 뼈 및 근육 조직을 사용하였다. 아가미, 뼈와 근육 조직에서 Zn의 축적 농도는 노출 40일에 증가하였다. 또한 아가미 조직 내 Zn의 축적량은 다른 조직에 비해 높았으며, 모든 조직에서 노출기간이 걸어질수록 증가하였다. Zn에 노출된 아가미, 신장, 간과 근육 조직의 항산화효소의 활성은 노출기간이 걸어질수록 증가하였다. 또한 Zn에 노출된 아가미, 선장, 간과 근육 조직의 항산화효소 활성은 아가미와 간 조직에서 높았으며, 신장 조직에서 가장 낮은 활성을 보였다. 농도가 높고 노출기간이 걸어질수록 아가미 조직에서는 이차새변의 간격이 불규칙해지고, 점액 세포 수가 증가하였다. 곤봉화, 부종, 상피세포의 박리가 이차새변에서 관찰되었다. 또한 40 일간 Zn에 노출된 아가미 조직 내 미토콘드리아와 핵에서는 막의 손상이 관찰되었다. 신장 조직 내 사구체는 수축되어 보우만 주머니의 공간이 넓게 관찰되었다. 이러한 결과로 보아 고농도의 Zn 노출은 어류의 호흡과 배설 장애등 심각한 조직, 생리적 장애를 가져 올 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Objectives This study was performed to investigate the effects of Bujasasim-tang ethanol extract (BST) on oxidative stress, inflammation and osteoarthritic rat model. Methods To ensure safety of BST, heavy metal levels were measured and cytotoxicity test was done. In vitro, To evaluate antioxidative effects of BST, total phenolic contents, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) scavenging activity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were measured. Also, to evaluate anti-inflammatory effects of BST treated group, total nitric oxide (NO) and pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-6, TNF-${\alpha}$) levels were measured in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. In vivo, We injected MIA $50{\mu}l$ (60 mg/ml) into knee joints of rats to induce osteoarthritis. Rats were divided into total 3 groups (normal, control, BST treated group, each n=7). Normal group was not treated at all without inducing osteoarthritis and taken normal diet. Control group was induced osteoarthritis by MIA and taken with 2 ml of distilled water once a day for 4 weeks. BST treated group was induced osteoarthritis by MIA and taken BST 2 ml (200 mg/kg/mouse) once a day for 4 weeks. We evaluated dynamic weight bearing with the Incapacitance Test Meter. At the end of experiment, the rats were sacrificed to observe the functions of liver and kidney, changes of WBC, neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte levels in blood, to evaluate the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, tissue inhibitor of metallopreteinases-1 (TIMP-1), matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), prostaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$), leukotriene $B_4$ ($LTB_4$) within serum. We observed change of articular structures by Hematoxylin & Eosin (H&E), safranin-O staining method and measured amount of cartilage by micro CT-arthrography. Statistical analysis was done by unpaired student's t-test with significance level at p<0.05 in SPSS 11.0 for windows. Results 1. Safety of the BST was identified. 2. AST, ALT, BUN, creatinine levels of BST treated group were within normal limit. In vitro, 1. DPPH and ABTS free radical scavenging activities of BST showed dose-dependent increase. 2. ROS production were significantly decreased. 3. Total nitric oxide (NO) and IL-$1{\beta}$ production were decreased. 4. IL-6 and TNF-${\alpha}$ production were significantly decreased. In vivo, 1.

APT (Ammonium paratungstate)는 금속절단 공구, 드릴의 날, 광산공구, 군사무기 재료 등 산업 전반에 다양한 용도로 사용되며, 고순도의 APT(S)를 제조하기 위해서는 $Na_2WO_4$ 수용액으로부터 전환된 $H_2WO_4$ 내의 불순물 정제 공정이 필요하다. 이미 널리 알려진 기존의 습식방법인 $Na_2WO_4$ 수용액에 HCl(Aq)을 첨가하여 $H_2WO_4(S)$을 제조하는 경우에는 불순물인 Na를 200 ppm 이하로 제거하는데 어려움이 있다. 이러한 점을 개선하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 양이온 격막을 이용한 전기투석 공정을 통해 Na를 제거하는 보다 경제적이고 효율적인 방법을 연구하였다. 폐 텅스텐 초경드릴 및 스크랩을 용해하기 위해 첨가되었던 $Na_2CO_3(S)$로 인한 $H_2WO_4$ 수용액 내의 다량의 Na를 전기투석 공정을 통해 20 ppm 이내로 제거함으로써 전기투석법 이용 시 Na 제거 효과가 큼을 확인하였다.

The pH effect of the precursor solution on the preparation of $LiCoO_2$ by a solution phase reaction containing malonic acid was carried out. Layered $LiCoO_2$ powders were obtained with the precursors prepared at the different pHs (4, 7, and 9) and heat-treated at $700^{\circ}C(LiCoO_2-700)$ or $850^{\circ}C(LiCoO_2-850)$ in air. pHs of the media for precursor synthesis affects the charge/discharge and electrochemical properties of the $LiCoO_2electrodes.$ Upon irrespective of pH of the precursor media, X-ray diffraction spectra recorded for $LiCoO_2-850$ powder showed higher peak intensity ratio of I(003)/I(104) than that of $LiCoO_2-700$, since the better crystallization of the former crystallized better. However, $LiCoO_2$ synthesized at pH 4 displayed an abnormal higher intensity ratio of I(003)/I(104) than those synthesized at pH 7 and 9. The surface morphology of the $LiCoO_2-850$ powders was rougher and more irregular than that of $LiCoO_2-700$ made from the precursor synthesized at pH 7 and 9. The $LiCoO_2electrodes$ prepared with the precursors synthesized at pH 7 and 9 showed a better electrochemical and charge/discharge characteristics. From the AC impedance spectroscopic experiments for the electrode made from the precursor prepared in pH 7, the chemical diffusivity of Li ions (DLi+) in $Li0.58CoO_2determined$ was 2.7 ${\times}$10-8 $cm^2s-1$. A cell composed of the $LiCoO_2-700$ cathode prepared in pH 7 with Lithium metal anode reveals an initial discharge specific capacity of 119.8 mAhg-1 at a current density of 10.0 mAg-1 between 3.5 V and 4.3 V. The full-cell composed with $LiCoO_2-700$ cathode prepared in pH 7 and the Mesocarbon Pitch-based Carbon Fiber (MPCF) anode separated by a Cellgard 2400 membrane showed a good cycleability. In addition, it was operated over 100 charge/discharge cycles and displayed an average reversible capacity of nearly 130 mAhg-1.

Molybdenum disulfide ($MoS_2$) based electrocatalysts have been proposed as substitutes for platinum group metal (PGM) based electrocatalyst to hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in water electrolysis. Here, we studied $MoS_2/CNFs$ hybrid catalyst prepared by electrospinning method with heat treatment for polymer electrolyte membrane(PEM) water electrolysis to improve the HER activity. The physicochemical and electrochemical properties such as average diameter, crystalline properties, electrocatalitic activity for HER of synthesized $MoS_2/CNFs$ were investigated by the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Raman Spectroscopy (Raman) and Linear Sweep Voltammetry (LSV). The as spun ATTM/PVP nanofibers were prepared by sol-gel and electrospinning method. Subsequently, the $MoS_2/CNFs$ was dereived from reduction heat treatment of ATTM at the ATTM/PVP nanofibers and carbonization heat treatment. Synthesized $MoS_2/CNFs$ electrocatalyst had an average diameter of $179{\pm}30nm$. We confirmed that the $MoS_2$ layers in $MoS_2/CNF$ electrocatalyst consist of 3~4 layers from the Raman results. In addition, We confirmed that the $MoS_2$ layers in $MoS_2/CNF$ catalyst consist of 7.47% octahedral 1T phase $MoS_2$, 63.77% trigonal prismatic 2H phase $MoS_2$ with 28.75% $MoO_3$ through the XRD, Raman and XPS results. It was shown that $MoS_2/CNFs$ had the overpotential of 0.278 V at $10mA/cm^2$ and tafel slope of 74.8 mV/dec in 0.5 M sulfuric acid ($H_2SO_4$) electrolyte.
