The binder plays important roles in determining the quality of pigment coating. In addition to its primary role of binding the pigment to the base paper, the binder performs several other important functions. The binder, also referred to as the adhesive, is the dominant in the aqueous phase of the formulation. Thus it plays a major role in determining viscosity, rheology, water release, and setting time for the coating. Latices based on styrene-butadiene dominate the market for synthetic paper coating binders. Consumption is high and is expected to increase further due to the present tendeyncy toward high-solids coating. The purpose of this study is understanding the impact of various parameters of latex(i.e. Tg, Particle size) affecting prontabilities and optical properties of the coated papers, as well as providing basic information on the use of amphoteric latex for improving print qualities of coated papers. Recently, amphoteric latices, Which are cationic at low pH's but turn anionic at high pH's have attracted interests of paper scientists and engineers. Therefore we investigated the effect of the Tg(glass transition temperature) and particle size of amphoteric latex on the coating qualities. We also studied the effect of mixing ratios (Amphoteric / Anionic)of latex on the coating qualities. Our results showed that Tg and particle size of amphoteric latex have to be controlled for optimizing coated paper qualities. The formulation consisting of 10 parts of amphoteric latex and 5 parts of anionic latex gave best results in ink receptivity, smoothness, air permeability, opacity and sheet gloss. If the results hold for the industrial paper coatings, the amount of expensive amphoteric latex can be reduced while achieving best available printing quality.

Recently, co-delivery of drug and gene has been attempted for higher therapeutic effects of anticancer agents. In this study, cationic liposomes were prepared using 1,2-dioleoyl-3-trimethylammoniopropane (DOTAP) as a cationic lipid to investigate the effect of drug loading on the physicochemical characteristics of cationic liposomes/DNA complexes. The complex formation between cationic liposomes and negatively charged plasmid DNA was confirmed and the protection from DNase was observed. Particle size of complexes was reduced not by drug loading, but by the increased ratio of cationic lipid to plasmid DNA. Meanwhile, zeta potential of complex was increased by the addition of cationic liposomes to complexes and the effect of drug loading on the zeta potential was not much higher than on particle size. Gel retardation of complexes was indicated when the complexation weight ratios of cationic lipid to plasmid DNA were higher than 24:1 for drug free complexes and 20:1 for drug loaded ones, respectively. Agarose gel retardation showed the similar complexation between plasmid DNA and drug free liposomes or drug loaded liposomes. Both complexes protected plasmid DNA from DNase independent of complexation temperature. From the results, drug loading may affect not the complex formation of cationic liposomes and plasmid DNA, but the particle size of complex.

As the indoor activity increases in recent years, the indoor air quality becomes more important. One of the major contaminants in office space is the copy machines and the laser based printers. These devices usually emit nano-particles and chemical species that may give some health effect. The amount of particles generated by the printers and copy machines depend on printer models, printing speed, toners, papers, humidity and so on. To evaluate the emission rate of nano-particles from Laser Printers, the mass concentration measurement method has been used (BAM, 2004). However, the mass concentration measurement method for nano-particles is tedious and time consuming. Therefore, for the development of a new nano-particle counting method, the nano-particle emission characteristics and size distributions are evaluated.

본 연구는 MBT시스템과 연계된 호기성안정화장치에서 입경 크기가 안정화에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위하여 실시되었다. 반응기내 생분해성 폐기물(음식물류 폐기물 60%, 종이류 폐기물 25%, 목재류 폐기물 2% 및 퇴비 5%)을 동일한 조성으로 충전하고, 각각의 입경을 5 mm, 10 mm, 20 mm, 50 mm, 100 mm 및 미선별 등으로 조절하여 충전한 후에 안정화 정도를 비교분석하였다. 실험결과 온도변화에서는 50 mm 이하의 입경에서 최고 온도가 $65^{\circ}C$ 이상을 보였으며, 100 mm와 미선별 반응기에서는 최고온도가 약 $50^{\circ}C$를 보였다. $CO_2$ 가스의 발생량은 입경의 크기에 따라 발생량이 비례하는 현상이 관찰되지 않고, 오히려 100 mm 이상에서 높은 발생량을 보였다. 반응과정중 습윤 및 건윤기준의 무게변화는 입경 크기가 가장 작은 5 mm에서 각각 30% 및 46%의 감소율을 보였으며, 입경이 클수록 감소율이 낮아지는 경향을 보였다. 물용출 $COD_{Cr}$ 및 TOC는 입경 크기가 50 mm 이하인 반응기에서는 반응초기 대비 감소율이 약 80%로 나타난 반면 입경이 100 mm 및 미선별 반응기에서는 약 60%의 감소율을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과로부터 생분해성 폐기물의 입경이 작을수록 유기물의 분해율이 높아져 생분해성 물질의 분해 안정화가 촉진되는 것으로 나타났으며, 가능한 50 mm 이하로 입경을 조절하여 반응시키는 것이 필요한 것으로 나타났다.

Present paper focuses on the modeling of size effect on the compressive strength of normal concrete with the application of Discrete Element Method (DEM). Test specimens with different size and shape were cast and uniaxial compressive strength test was performed on each sample. Five different concrete mixes were used, all belonging to a different normal strength concrete class (C20/25, C30/37, C35/45, C45/55, and C50/60). The numerical simulations were carried out by using the PFC 5 software, which applies rigid spheres and contacts between them to model the material. DEM modeling of size effect could be advantageous because the development of micro-cracks in the material can be observed and the failure mode can be visualized. The series of experiments were repeated with the model after calibration. The relationship of the parallel bond strength of the contacts and the laboratory compressive strength test was analyzed by aiming to determine a relation between the compressive strength and the bond strength of different sized models. An equation was derived based on Bazant's size effect law to estimate the parallel bond strength of differently sized specimens. The parameters of the equation were optimized based on measurement data using nonlinear least-squares method with SSE (sum of squared errors) objective function. The laboratory test results showed a good agreement with the literature data (compressive strength is decreasing with the increase of the size of the specimen regardless of the shape). The derived estimation models showed strong correlation with the measurement data. The results indicated that the size effect is stronger on concretes with lower strength class due to the higher level of inhomogeneity of the material. It was observed that size effect is more significant on cube specimens than on cylinder samples, which can be caused by the side ratios of the specimens and the size of the purely compressed zone. A limit value for the minimum size of DE model for cubes and cylinder was determined, above which the size effect on compressive strength can be neglected within the investigated size range. The relationship of model size (particle number) and computational time was analyzed and a method to decrease the computational time (number of iterations) of material genesis is proposed.

입자강화 금속기지 복합재는 입자와 기지재간의 열팽창계수 차이와 탄소성 강성도의 차이에 따라 변형률 구배가 발생하고 이로 인한 기하적 필수 전위가 입자 주위에 형성됨에 따라 변형시 입자 크기 의존 길이 스케일에 의한 강화 효과를 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 유한요소법을 활용하여 복합재를 압밀 성형할 때 입자 주위에 펀칭되는 기하적 필수 전위에 의한 강도 증가를 입자 주위 영역에 부가시켜 입자 의존 길이 스케일이 복합재의 입자 경계 파손 및 기지재의 연성 파손에 미치는 영향을 살펴 보았다. 파손 거동은 입자의 크기와 체적비를 달리하고, 특히 분리 에너지와 강도 등의 경계 파손 물성값을 변화시켜가는 매개변수적 계산을 수행하여 관찰하였다. 두 개의 파손 모드는 서로 영향을 미치면서 입자 크기 의존 길이 스케일에 밀접하게 연관됨을 보였다. 즉 입자의 크기가 작은 경우에 입자의 크기가 큰 경우에 비하여 입자를 둘러싸고 있는 기하적 필수 전위가 상대적으로 더 집적됨으로 인해 입자경계와 기지재의 연성 파손에 의한 복합재의 파손 개시가 지연되고 파손이 진행되는 동안의 유동 응력 감소도 상대적으로 작은 것을 보였다.

To understand the traffic emissions with high temporal and spatial resolutions on road, a mobile laboratory was developed. The objective of this study is to characterize on-road air pollution on Naebu express way surrounding the northern area of Seoul, Korea. We measured the number concentration of ultrafine particles larger than 5 nm and particle size distribution using a condensation particle counter and a fast mobility particle sizer, respectively on 3, 7, and 8 December 2009. The average ultrafine particle number concentration on the Naebu express way excluding tunnels was 126,000 particles/$cm^3$ and 4.2 times higher than that on internal road at Korea Institute of Science and Technology in Seoul, and more than twice higher than that measured on and at the arterial roads of Seoul in previous studies. The maximum ultrafine particle number concentration was observed at the tunnel sections. It was 232,000 particles/$cm^3$ and 1.8 times higher than average ultrafine particle number concentration for the other sections on Naebu express way. The ultrafine particle number concentration on the wider roads with higher traffic volume along the Han River was similar to that in the residential section, probably because of enhanced dilution effect in widely open environment. The size distribution of particles on the Naebu express way was highly fluctuated for a short duration. Ultrafine particles measured at the tunnel showed a bimodal size distribution with mode diameters of ~10 nm and ~50 nm. At the Han riverside section, ~10 nm particles appeared significantly compared with size distribution at the tunnel. This on-road measurement approach can be utilized to manage vehicle-related air pollution in urban area.
