Radiation treatment with gamma-rays and electron-beams was used to remove polyvinyl alcohol(PVA), one of the main components of dyeing wastewater. PVA was effectively decomposed by radiation treatment, thus the removal was near 100 % at an initial PVA concentration of 44 mg/L. However, total organic carbon(TOC) removal was less than 5 % due to lower transformation of PVA to $CO_2$. This directly indicates the radiation treatment alone is not appropriate for the complete decomposition of PVA. In this sense, the improvement of biodegradability($BOD_5/COD$) of PVA by radiation treatment was studied. Both gamma-ray and electron-beam treatments significantly increased the biodegradability of PVA by transforming non-biodegradable PVA to biodegradable by-products. This suggests radiation treatment, especially electron-beam treatment that showed better improvement of biodegradability, can be used as a pre-treatment of biological degradation process of PVA.

Immobilized nitrifier bead in airlift bioreactor were used to remove high levels of ammonia nitrogen from synthetic wastewater. Polyvinylalcohol(PVA) bead for immmobilization of nitrifier consortium were prepared by PVA-boric acid method by varying concentration of PVA and nitrifier consortium. By determining viscosity, sphercity and tailing, the characteristics of prepared beads were investigated and the continous immobilization process was developed. Synthetic wastewater containg 25g/$\textrm{m}^3$ of ammonia nitrogen could be treated within 0.5 hour and the highest removal rate of ammonia nitrogen was 934.2g/$\textrm{m}^3{\cdot}$ day.

본 연구에서는, 방사선 가교와 열처리에 의해 내열특성을 가진 polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) 수화겔을 제조하였다. 제조된 수화겔의 겔화율, 팽윤도와 겔강도 같은 기계적 특성을 측정하였다. DSC와 XRD를 이용하여 구조적 변화를 알아보았다. 수화겔의 겔화율과 겔강도는 방사선 조사 후에 열처리 과정을 했을 경우에 방사선 조사만 했을 때보다 높은 값을 보였다. 또한, 방사선 조사한 수화겔과 방사선 조사 후에 열처리 과정을 한 수화겔이 고온에서의 내열특성이 우수하였다.

폴리비닐알코올(polyvinyl alcohol, PVA)젤을 온도가시화용 생체모의매질로 사용하기 위한 기초적인 정보를 얻기 위하여, PVA의 농도를 바꾸어가며 집속초음파에 의한 온도변화 특성을 조사하였다. 기본적인 음향 특성을 조사하기 위하여 PVA농도에 따른 음속, 감쇠계수, 밀도 등이 측정되었고 열역학적 특성인 열전도도, 열용량이 측정되었다. 30 ℃ 이상에서 변색되는 시온필름을 사용하여 집속초음파에 의해 상승되는 초점부근의 온도 변화의 범위를 관찰하였으며 기록된 이미지의 화상처리를 통하여 변색범위의 면적을 도출하였다. PVA의 농도가 2 wt%~16 wt%의 범위에서 증가할수록 젤 내부에서 30 ℃ 이상으로 상승하는 영역은 선형적으로 증가함을 보였고 집속초음파 트랜스 듀서에 인가하는 파워가 증가할수록 변색영역이 증가함을 확인하였다. 이들 결과는 유한요소법을 사용한 시뮬레이션 결과와도 좋은 일치를 보였다.

$V_2O_5$ 나노선/폴리비닐 알코올(PVA) 고분자 복합체를 나일론 제조법을 응용하여 제작하였고 전기적 특성을 연구하였다. PVA가 아세톤, 에탄올, 메탄올 등의 벤젠기와 반응하여 얇은 막을 형성하는 것을 이용하여 나일론 섬유 제작방법과 유사하게 실타래를 감아올려 나노선 섬유가 섞인 폴리머 섬유를 만들었다. 폴리머-나노선 복합체는 내부에서 전도성이 있는 $V_2O_5$나노선 다발이 네트워크를 형성하기 때문에 전자기장을 차폐할 수 있는 고분자 섬유 등에 적용할 수 있다.

Formaldehyde has widely been used for the cross-linking of polyvinyl alcohol polyvinyl alcohol polymer. The effects of formaldehyde on the water resistance of MDF cement composites were investigated as a function of types of catalyst, base or acid, and the amount of formaldehyde. The acetalization, reaction of OH group of PVA with aldehyde, was ended incompletely under base atmosphere. However, by addition of citric acid, the cross-linking of PVA polymer could be acheved through acetalization of PVA and formaldehyde. The effects of these different patterne according to the types of catalyst on the water resistance of MDF cement were studied by the preparation of PVA films and MDF composites. Thanks to the cross-linking reaction of PVA polymer chains by formaldehyde, the modified PVA films and MDF composites showed a good water-resistant propety. The modified MDF cement composite to which 3 wt% formaldehyde and 1 wt% cirtic acid were added showed 80% of initial flexural strength and good interfacial state between cement grain and polymer matrix. However, 4 wt% formaldehyde deteriorted the processing conditions, microstructures and eventually the flexural strength, causing sharp increase in the viscosity of sample dough during the mixing process. To study the relatins of flexural strength and interface of cement grain and polymer matrix, SEM and MIP measurement were performed.

The use of fibers has been commonly considered in engineered cementitious composites, but their behavior with coarse aggregate in concrete has not been studied significantly, which is needed to meet structural performance objectives for design, such as ductility. This research analyzes the behavior of fiber-reinforced concrete with coarse aggregate with 0.62%, 1.23%, and 2% PVA (Polyvinyl-alcohol) content, varying the maximum aggregate size. Tensile (direct and indirect) and compressive concrete tests were performed. The PVA fiber addition in coarse aggregate concrete increased the ductility in compression, especially for the fiber with a larger aspect ratio, with a minor impact on strength. In addition, the tensile tests showed that the PVA fiber increased the tensile strength of concrete with coarse aggregate and, more significantly, improved the ductility. A selected mixture was used to build short and slender reinforced concrete beams to assess the behavior of structural members. PVA fiber addition in short beams changed the failure mode from shear to flexure, increasing the deflection capacity. On the other hand, the slender beam tests revealed negligible impact with the use of PVA.

Soil dust emitted from large scale construction sites in urban areas has posed a significant health threats to local residents by exacerbating air quality. Water-spraying (moistening) is commonly practiced to lower the dust emission in construction sites, but its long term effectiveness is highly questionable. In this study, the utility of starch and PVA(polyvinyl alcohol) was investigated in suppression of the soil dust emissions in construction sites in Seoul areas. The efficiency of the two suppressants was tested with test soil sample in a lab-scale wind tunnel box under different concentrations of suppressants and soil textures. Starch and PVA showed the superior ability to suppress soil dust emission as compared to moistening, resulting in PM₁₀ and PM_2.5 lower than the daily limit values of 30 and 15 ㎍/㎥ respectively. PVA showed higher suppression capability than starch for all conditions. The test soils mixed with suppressants also showed dramatically enhanced aggregate stability compared to the non-treated soil.
