PURPOSE. The aim of this study was to investigate dental arch dimensions and to classify arch shape in Korean young adults. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The sample included 50 Koreans with age ranging from 24 to 32 years. Maxillary and mandibular casts were fabricated using irreversible hydrocolloid and type III dental stones. Incisor-canine distance, $incisor-1^{st}$ molar distance, $incisor-2^{nd}$ molar distance, intercanine distance, $inter-1^{st}$ molar distance, and $inter-2^{nd}$ molar distance in both the maxillary and mandibular arch were measured using a three-dimensional measuring device. The dental arch was classified into three groups using five ratios from the measured values by the K-means clustering method. The data were analyzed with one-way analysis of variance. RESULTS. Arch lengths (IM2D, $incisal-2^{nd}$ molar distance) were 44.13 mm in the maxilla and 40.40 mm in the mandible. Arch widths (M2W, inter $2^{nd}$ molar width) were 64.12 mm in the maxilla and 56.37 mm in the mandible. Distribution of the dental arch form was mostly ovoid shape (maxilla 52% and mandible 56%), followed by the V-shape and the U-shape. The arch width for the U-shape was broader than for the other forms. CONCLUSION. This study establishes new reference data for dental arch dimensions for young Korean adults. The most common arch form is the ovoid type in the maxilla and mandible of Koreans. Clinicians should be aware of these references and classify arch type before and during their dental treatment for effective and harmonized results in Koreans.

황산제일철/황산제이철의 몰비와 침전제 종류(NaOH, $NH_4OH$)를 변화시켜 공침법으로 $Fe_3O_4$를 합성하였다. 합성한 분말의 특성을 평가한 결과 모든 실험조건(황산제일철/황산제이철의 몰비와 침전제의 종류)에서 단일상의 나노 크기 $Fe_3O_4$가 생성 되었다. NaOH를 침전제로 사용한 경우에 $NH_4OH$를 침전제로 사용한 경우보다 입자크기가 작고, 좁은 입도분포를 나타내었다. 동일한 침전제를 사용할 경우에는 혼합 황산철(황산제일철/황산제이철)의 몰비가 증가할수록 입자크기와 결정자 크기가 증가하였으며 입도 분포는 넓어졌다. 모든 실험조건에서 합성된 $Fe_3O_4$ 분말은 초상자성을 나타내었으며 침전제로 $NH_4OH$를 사용하고 혼합 황산철의 몰비를 2.5로 하였을 때 가장 높은 포화자화 값 72 emu/g을 갖는 $Fe_3O_4$를 합성할 수 있었다.

하수처리장에서 발생되는 잉여슬러지가 고온 호기 소화 반응을 거치면 슬러지부피가 크게 감소하게 된다. 그러나 고온 호기 소화 상등액에는 고농도의 유기물, 질소 및 인이 함유되어 있기 때문에 이들을 별도로 제거해 주어야만 한다. 본 연구에서는 고농도의 질소와 인의 제거에 많이 사용되는 방법인 Struvite 결정화 공법을 이용하여 고온 호기 소화 여액에 함유되어 있는 질소와 인을 제거하였다. 대상폐수의 암모니아성 질소와 인산염인의 평균농도는 각각 1716.5 mg/L 및 325.5 mg/L였다. 최적의 결정화 반응 조건을 결정하기 위하여 $Mg^{2+}$와 $PO_4^{3-}$의 주입량, pH, 교반 시간($t_d$), 교반 강도(G), 결정핵 주입 그리고 반응 온도를 결정하였다. Struvite 결정화 반응시 마그네슘원으로 $MgCl_2{\cdot}6H_2O$, 인산염인염의 원으로 $K_2HPO_4$를 이용하였다. 질소와 인의 제거를 위한 $Mg^{2+}:PO_4^{3-}:NH_4^+$의 적정 주입 몰비는 2 : 1 : 1과 2 : 2 : 1로 압축되었는데 각각의 주입 몰비에 따른 암모니아성 질소 및 인산염인의 제거효율은 전자의 경우에 각각 71.6% 및 99.9%였고, 후자의 경우에는 93.8%와 98.6%였다. Struvite 결정화 반응에서 반응 시간($t_d$)과 교반 강도(G)는 암모니아성 질소와 인산염인의 제거율에 큰 영향을 미치지 않았다. 또한 결정핵 주입과 온도의 영향에서도 같은 결과가 나타났다. 그러나 결정핵의 주입량이 증가함에 따라 슬러지 발생량이 감소하였으며, 온도의 증가에 따라 생성된 슬러지의 부피는 증가하는 것으로 나타났다.

This study evaluates the dosages of Class F fly ash, lithium nitrate and their combinations to suppress the excessive expansion caused by alkali-silica reactivity (ASR). In order to serve the proposed objective, the mortar bar specimens were prepared from (1) four dosages of Class F fly ash, such as 15, 20, 25 and 30 % as a partial replacement of Portland cement, (2) up to six dosages of lithium nitrate, such as lithium-to-alkali molar ratios of 0.59, 0.74, 0.89, 1.04, 1.19 and 1.33, and (3) the combination of lithium salt (lithium-to-alkali molar ratio of 0.74) and two dosages of Class F fly ash (15 and 20 % as a partial replacement of Portland cement). Percent contribution to ASR-induced expansion due to the fly ash or lithium content, test duration and their interaction was also evaluated. The results showed that the ASR-induced expansion decreased with an increase in the admixtures in the mortar bar. However, the specimens made with the both Class F fly ash and lithium salt produced more effective mitigation approach when compared to those prepared with fly ash or lithium salt alone. The ASR-induced expansions of fly ash or lithium bearing mortar bars by the proposed models generated a good correlation with those obtained by the experimental procedures.

This study investigates the preparation of anti-reflective (AR) coating film to improve the efficiency of solar cell. The AR coating film was successfully obtained by dip-coating with AR coatings prepared by sol-gel method. Fluoroalkylsilane was additionally introduced into the coatings to give the self-cleaning effect of AR coating film. We performed the abrasion test, pencil scratch hardness test and cross-cut test to identify the mechanical strength of AR coating film. As the results, the transmittance of AR coating films with 9.07, 18.13 and 27.20 of IPA/MTMS molar ratios were 93.1, 93.6 and 95.3%, respectively. The water contact angle and transmittance of AR coating film increased by the introduction of hydrophobicity. The prepared AR coating film shows the high level of abrasion, hardness and adhesion. The IPA/MTMS molar ratio of 27.20 and the withdrawing speed range of 0.20 ~ 0.28cm/sec are the optimal coating condition in terms of the transmittance and mechanical strength of AR coating film.

Shirasu, a pyroclastic flow deposit, showed considerable performance as aluminosilicate source in geopolymer, based on past research. However, the polymerization reactivity was somewhat lower compared to the traditional fly ash based geopolymer even though the long-term strength was fairly good. The present study concentrates on the development of higher initial strength performance of Shirasu based geopolymer by utilizing ground granulated blast furnace slag as an admixture. Mortars with various mix proportions were adopted to study the effect of parametric changes on strength development along with the addition of slag in different percentages. A combination of sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate was used as alkaline activators considering parameters like molar ratios of alkali to geopolymer water and silica to alkali molar ratio. The mortars were cured at elevated temperatures under different curing conditions to analyze the effect on strength development. Compressive strength test, mercury intrusion porosimetry and X-ray powder diffraction were carried out to assess the strength performance and microstructure of slag-Shirasu based geopolymer. Based on the experimental study, it was observed that the initial and long-term strength development of Slag-Shirasu geopolymer were improved by the addition of slag.

Cellulose acetate (CA) fiber mats containing inclusion complexes of asiaticoside (AC) in 2-hydroxypropyl-${\beta}$-cyclodextrin ($HP{\beta}CD$) for potential usage as wound dressings were developed. The AC/$HP{\beta}CD$ complex-loaded CA fibers at various $HP{\beta}CD$ to AC molar ratios of 0.5, 1, and 2 were prepared in 90:10 v/v mixture of 80% (v/v) acetic acid and N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) via electrospinning. The maximum released amounts of AC depended on the $HP{\beta}CD$ content and were much greater than those released from the AC-loaded CA fiber mat. In the in vitro study, indirect cytotoxic evaluation with human dermal fibroblasts (HDFa) showed that these materials released no substances in the levels that were harmful to the cells and the cells appeared to attach and proliferate well on these substrates. However, only the CA fiber mats containing AC/$HP{\beta}CD$ complexes at the $HP{\beta}CD$ to AC molar ratio of 0.5 was effective in upregulating the production of collagen of the cultured cells.

$In_2O_3$ thin-film transistors (TFTs) were fabricated on various dielectrics [$SiO_2$ and self-assembled nanodielectrics (SANDs)] by spin-coating a $In_2O_3$ film precursor solution consisting of methoxyethanol (solvent), ethanolamine (EAA, base), and $InCl_3$ as the $In^{3+}$ source. Importantly, an optimized film microstructure characterized by the high-mobility $In_2O_3$ 004 phase, is obtained only within a well-defined base: $In^{3+}$ molar ratio. The greatest electron mobilities of ~ 44 $cm^2$, for EAA:$In^{3+}$ molar ratio = 10, $V^{-1}s^{-1}$, is measured for $n^+$-Si/SAND/$In_2O_3$/Au devices. This result combined with the high $I_{on}:I_{off}$ ratios of ~ $10^6$ and very low operating voltages (< 5 V) is encouraging for high-speed applications.

The present study aims to investigate the fluorination of thorium oxide ($ThO_2$) by ammonium hydrogen difluoride ($NH_4HF_2$). Fluorination was performed at room temperature by mixing $ThO_2$ and $NH_4HF_2$ at different molar ratios, which was then left to react for 20 days. Next, the mixtures were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) at the intervals of 5, 10, 15, and 20 days, followed by the heating of the mixtures at $450-750^{\circ}C$ with argon gas flow. The characterization of $ThF_4$ was established using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy-dispersion X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX). In this study, ammonium thorium fluoride was synthesized through the fluorination of $ThO_2$ at room temperature. The optimum molar ratio in synthesizing ammonium thorium fluoride was 1.0:5.5 ($ThO_2:NH_4HF_2$) with 5 days reaction time. In addition, the heating of ammonium thorium fluoride at $450^{\circ}C$ was sufficient to produce $ThF_4$. Overall, this study proved that $NH_4HF_2$ is one of the fluorination agents that is capable of synthesizing $ThF_4$.
