  • Al-Cu alloy nano powders have been produced by the electrical explosion of Cu-plated Al wire. The porous nano particles were prepared by leaching for Al-Cu alloy nano powders in 40wt% NaOH aqueous solution. The surface area of leached powder for 5 hours was 4 times larger than that of original alloy nano powder. It is demonstrated that porous nano particles could be obtained by selective leaching of alloy nano powder. It is expected that porous Cu nano powders can be applied for catalyst of SRM (steam reforming methanol).

  • Al-Cu alloy nano powders were produced by the electrical explosion of Cu-plated Al wires. The composition and phase of the alloy could be controlled by varying the thickness of Cu deposit on Al wire. When the Cu layer was thin, Al solid solution and $CuAl_2$ were the major phases. As the Cu layer becomes thicker, Al diminished while $Al_4Cu_9$ phase prevailed instead. The average particle size of Al-Cu nano powders became slightly smaller from 63 nm to 44 nm as Cu layer becomes thicker. The oxygen content of Al-Cu powder decreased linearly with Cu content. It is well demonstrated that the electrodeposition combined with wire explosion could be simple and economical means to prepare variety of alloy and intermetallic nano powders.

  • This study is about the recycling technology of scrap a PCB(printed circuit board) produced in home appliances or automobile industry. And we develop the recycling technology of cooper (Cu)which is contained to leaching solution. In stead of electrolytic collecting in existing sulphuric atmosphere, we apply process using the ammonia solution which is used in economizing energy. So m the process of electrolyzing scrap a PCB through the leaching and separation, we examine the effect of the nickel contained to the solution and the cooper degree of purity which is changed according to current density.

  • 본 연구에서는 유해 중금속을 다량 함유하고 있는 산업폐기물의 고화 처리에 사용되는 칼슘설포알루미네이트(4CaO $3Al_2O_3\;SO_4$ 이후부터 CSA로 기입)의 제조를 위해 철강부산물인 압연 슬러지를 활용하여 그 특성에 대해 조사하였다. 본 연구에서는 철강 부산물인 압연슬러지 외에 석회석 미분물, 인산부산 석고를 혼합하여 칼슘알루미네이트 상을 합성하였다. 합성 결과 소성온도 $1250^{\circ}C$에서부터 CSA가 합성되었고, 이와 함께 칼슘실리케이트$(2CaO\;SiO_2)$와 칼슘알루미노페라이트($4CaO\;Al_2O_3\;Fe_2O_3$)도 함께 합성되었다. CSA 합성에 미치는 중금속 영향을 관찰한 결과 원료의 중금속이 CSA 합성 온도를 낮추는 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. CSA를 이용한 철강산업 폐기물의 중금속 고용 처리 연구에서도 본 실험에서 합성된 CSA가 폐기물의 중금속 고화 처리에 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다.

  • Distribution of clay minerals separated from clay fraction of corn fields in Korea has been investigated along with their characterization. Crystalline phases of the clay minerals were identified by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern, and their relative chemical compositions were analyzed by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF). The soils were found to have pH 6.4, organic matter $37.2g\;kg^{-1}$, available $P_2O_5$ $599mg\;kg^{-1}$, respectively, and exchangeable K, Ca and Mg were 1.2, 7.3 and $1.8cmol_c\;kg^{-1}$, respectively. Major primary minerals consisted mainly of quartz and mica, and kaolinite and chlorite were identified as major secondary clay minerals. For most of soils, mica phase was identified to be muscovite rather than biotite. The average contents of $SiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$ and $Fe_2O_3$ were 43.7, 23.6 and 8.8%, respectively, although they were different with the locations.

  • Nowadays, the nutritional deficits are rarely seen in Korea. However, an increased availability of the highly palatable energy dense, nutrient-poor foods increases the risks of obesity and deficits of vitamins and minerals in the general population. Also, optimum intake of vitamins and minerals, which varies with age and genetic back ground, might not suffice the poor, young, obese, and elderly people. Young girls and individuals participating in weight reductions and aesthetic components are prone to micronutrient deficiencies because they restrict food intake and specific micronutrient rich foods. An inadequate intake of vitamins or minerals is associated with reduced physical performance and exercise capacity, increased obesity, decreased cognitive function, increased DNA damages such as single- and double-stranded breaks or oxidative DNA lesions, and accelerated aging process and increased neuronal damages with mitochondrial oxidative decay. Most of these deleterious effects of the deficit could be prevented by a one tablet of multivitamins with a good balanced diet. High dose B vitamins are frequently administered to overcome the metabolic inadequacy to the people with the less functional enzymes with increased Km values for their coenzymes due to the single gene mutation or due to the single nucleotide polymorphisms. And some certain antioxidant vitamins are also used in large quantities to overcome the oxidative stress and to repair the damages. In this review, new nutritional concepts of some vitamins and minerals, which are widely used and useful for the children, will be discussed.

  • Daehwa tungsten-molybdenum deposits is fissure filled quartz veins occurring in Precambrian granite gneiss adjacent to the contact with Mesozoic biotite granite mass. Essential ore minerals are molybdenum and wolframite accompaning scheelite, cassiterite, chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite, pyrite and bismuthinites. Gangue minerals are quartz and little muscovte, fluorite, beryl and Carbonate minerals. Fluid inclusions in quartz, fluorite, beryl, scheelite and calcite have filling temperature ranges of $170-353^{\circ}C$. According to the studies of mineral paragenesis and filling temperature of fluid inclusion indicate that main tungsten and molybdnum mineralization have taken place with the minerals whose filling temperature ranges 205 to $353^{\circ}C$. Liquid $CO_2$ bearing fluid inclusions are characteristic in the quartz and early fluorite of tungsten and tungsten bearing molybdenum veins but hardly recognized from molybdemun veins. Estimated $CO_2$ concentration according to diagram proposed by the Takenouchi ranges from 10 to 20wt%. These facts suggest that tungsten mineralization may be related to the $CO_2$ content of the hydrothermal solution during the mineralizing period.

  • 전자빔 용해법에 의해 고순도 티타늄잉고트 및 버튼시편을 제조하였다. 이들 중 18개의 금속불순물을 GDMS(Glow Discharge Mass Spectrometry)로 그리고 탄소, 질소, 산소의 함량을 고온연소법으로 측정한 후 이들과 전기비저항, 경도와의 관계를 조사하였다. 99%와 99.6%스폰지를 용해한 경우 대부분의금속불순물들이 대폭 감소하는 큰 휘발 정련효과가 나타났으며 비금속불순물들의 경우는 장비의 진공상태에 따라 큰 영향을 받으며 정련효과를 기대할 수 없었다. 금속 불순물중 철은 가장 제거하기 어려운 원소로 밝혀졌으며 이는 원료 스폰기중에서 철이 주불순물이기 때문이며 추가적인 예비정련이 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 상온 및 액체질소온도에서의 전기비저항은 가스불순물의 량이 증가함에 따라 직선적으로 증가하였으며 이들의 저항비($\rho$$_{RT}$ /$\rho$$_{N2}$)는 가스불순물의 총량이 1,000ppm이하의 경우 불순물량이 감소함에 따라 급격하게 저하하였으며 이 이상인 경우 완만하게 감소하였다. 이들의 경도는 가스불순물의 량이 증가하였으며 산소당량의 평방근에 비례하는 것으로 나타났다.다.

  • We analyzed the contents of 12 types of minerals such as calcium in muscle from various species. Thereafter we observed changes of the concentrations according to age, part and sex in major domestic animals. The concentrations of calcium, iron, sodium, potassium, magnesium and zinc were high respectively whilst the content of cobalt, chromium, copper, manganese, molybdenum and nickel were low respectively in the muscle. The concentration of calcium was high in duck and dog but low in pig and horse. Also high level of sodium content was detected in dog and the content of potassium, iron showed high level in horse compared with the content in other animals. In 6 types of microminerals as cobalt, the level of muscle were no more than 1 ppm showing very low content in all animal, but $2.99{\pm}0.85$ppm of copper in duck was an exceptional case. According to the age some species showed small range of variation centering on macrominerals and there was no remarkable change in microminerals. Distribution of minerals was different according to the part and the variation was very diverse compared with other factors such as age and sex. Additionally, the content of minerals in muscle was higher in female than in male chicken and duck. In conclusion, the difference of the content of minerals according to the species was mainly focused on macrominerals.

  • 나노튜브 형상의 할로이사이트는 화장품 약물 등 활성물질의 방출시간을 연장하는데 응용할 수 있는 천연 나노광물이다. 할로이사이트를 이용한 활성물질 적재 방출 제어기술을 최초로 등록한 1997년 미국 특허를 필두로 2007년에는 비타민과 글리세린 등의 기능효과제를 광범위하게 포함하는 기능성화장품 제조기술에 대한 특허가 출원되었다. 학술 논문으로서는 화장품 보다 서방형 약물전달 기술에 관한 연구가 주로 발표되고 있다. 최근 화장품용 분체에 단순한 기재로서의 역할뿐만 아니라 기능성을 추가로 부여하고 있다. 특히, 할로이사이트는 기능성 화장성분의 전달 속도를 제어할 수 있으며 다른 분체보다 밀도가 낮아 팩 크림 로션류의 기재로 적합하다. 따라서 나노튜브형 할로이사이트를 활용한 나노캐리어 기술은 최근 화장품 유형별 시장점유율에서 2위로 부상한 기능성화장품 분야의 핵심기술로 성장할 것으로 기대된다.
