Objectives: The major objective of this study is the oral dose toxicity test and skin irritation test of eco-friendly plasticizer using crude glycerol derived from the biodiesel process. Methods: Glyceroldiacetate laurate(GDL) was synthesized from glycerol monolaurat(GML) and acetic acid. The synthesis of the GDL plasticizer was measured with nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscop(NMR) and FT-IR(Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer). To provide information on the safety of GDL, we carried out an oral dose toxicity test for GDL in Sprague-Dawley rats. Also, we carried out a skin irritation test for GDL in New Zealand White rabbits. Results: The oral dose toxicity test in Sprague-Dawley rats showed that GDL is a non-toxic material. The result of the skin irritation test on New Zealand White rabbits showed that GDL is non-irritating. Conclusions: From the results of oral dose toxicity test and skin irritation test, we concluded that the developed plasticizer showed excellent eco-friendly property. Based on our results, we confirmed the development of an eco-friendly non-phthalate plasticizer. Applicability for PVC toys and food and drug packaging materials was found.

Voltammetric characterization of hydrophilic anion transfer processes across a 66 microhole array interface between the water and polyvinylchloride-2-nitrophenyloctylether gel layer is demonstrated. Since the transfer of hydrophilic anions including $Br^-$, $NO_3{^-}$, $I^-$, $SCN^-$ and $ClO_4{^-}$ across the liquid/gel interface usually sets the potential window within a negative potential region, a highly hydrophobic organic electrolyte, tetraoctylammonium tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate, providing a wider potential window was incorporated into the gel phase. The transfer reaction of perchlorate anions across the microhole-water/gel interface was first studied using cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The full voltammetric response of perchlorate anion transfer was then used as a reference for evaluating the half-wave transfer potentials, the formal transfer potentials and the formal Gibbs transfer energies of more hydrophilic anions such as $Br^-$, $NO_3{^-}$, $I^-$, and $SCN^-$. The current response associated with the perchlorate anion transfer across the micro-water/gel interface versus the perchlorate concentration was also demonstrated for sensing applications.

In this study, we propose a multichannel interdigitated capacitor (IDC) sensor for detecting the bitterness of coffee. The operating principle of the device is based on the variation in capacitance of a sensing membrane in contact with a bitter solution. Four solvatochromic dyes, namely, Nile red, Reichardt's dye, auramine-O, and rhodamine-B, were mixed with polyvinylchloride (PVC) and N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAC), to create four different types of bitter-sensitive solutions. These solutions were then individually inserted into four interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) using a spin coater, to prepare four distinct IDC sensors. The sensors are capable of detecting bitterness-inducing chemical compounds in any solution, at concentrations of approximately $1{\mu}M$ to 1 M. The sensitivity of the IDC bitterness sensor containing the Reichardt's dye sensing-membrane was approximately 1.58 nF/decade. The multichannel sensor has a response time of approximately 6 s, and an approximate recovery time of 5 s. The proposed sensor offers a stable sensing response and linear sensing performance over a wide measurement range, with a correlation coefficient ($R^2$) of approximately 0.972.

항균력이 있는 것으로 확인된 대황 및 황련추출물을 오이, 호박, 상치 및 고추에 처리하였을 때 총균수가 감소하였다. 채소의 종류에 따라서 적절한 처리농도는 달랐는 데, 호박, 상치 및 고추는 100 ppm, 오이는 500 ppm 처리가 적절한 것으로 나타났다. 채소를 침지할 때의 시간은 10분 정도가 적절한 것으로 나타났으며, 세척수의 온도를 4$0^{\circ}C$로 높일 경우에도 채소류 표면의 총균수 감소 효과는 실온의 세척수와 비슷하였다. 또한 오이와 호박을 대황 및 황련 추출물로 처리한 다음 1$0^{\circ}C$에서 건조하고 PVC랩으로 포장하여 저장한 결과 대조구에 비하여 총균수가 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 저장 기간 중 무게는 지속적으로 감소하였으며, 처리구와 대조구간에 큰 차이를 나타내지는 않았다. Ascorbic acid의 함량은 저장 기간 중 지속적으로 감소하는 것으로 나타났는데, 대황 및 황련추출물을 처리한 시험구가 대조구에 비하여 ascorbic acid의 함량이 높은 것으로 나타났다

섬유강화고분자복합재료(CFRP, Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics)의 경량화는 자동차 및 항공 분야에서 끊임없이 요구되고 있으며, 구조용 폼과 CFRP를 혼합하여 샌드위치 복합재료로 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 열경화성 소재인 에폭시 폼과 폴리우레탄 폼 및 열가소성 소재인 PET 폼과 PVC 폼의 조성 차이에 따른 폼의 형상 및 열 노화를 통해 변화되는 기계적 특성 변화를 관찰하였다. 성형한 에폭시 폼, 폴리우레탄 폼 및 상용화된 PET 폼과 PVC폼을 180도에서 열 노화시켰으며, 30, 60, 120, 180분의 노화시간에 따라 구조용 폼의 변화를 광학 현미경 및 만능시험기로 폼 셀의 형상 및 압축강도를 평가하였다. 궁극적으로 에폭시 폼이 가장 높은 2.6 MPa의 압축강도를 가졌으며, 열 노화 조건에서도 물성저하나 형상의 변화가 거의 발생되지 않았다. 이는 에폭시 폼이 타 구조용 폼에 비해 열 노화 조건에서 후경화되어 강직한 조성을 이루며, 타 구조용 폼과는 다르게 내열 특성이 우수하기 때문에 고온용 구조용 폼으로 적용하기 적합한 소재임을 확인하였다.

A novel stick-shaped portable sensing device featuring a microhole array interface between the polyvinylchloride-2-nitrophenyloctylether (PVC-NPOE) gel and water phase was developed for in-situ sensing of perchlorate ions in real water samples. Perchlorate sensitive sensing responses were obtained based on measuring the current changes with respect to the assisted transfer reaction of perchlorate ions by a perchlorate selective ligand namely, bis(dibenzoylmethanato)Ni(II) (Ni(DBM)2) across the polarized microhole array interface. Cyclic voltammetry was used to characterize the assisted transfer reaction of perchlorate ions by the $Ni(DBM)_2$ ligand when using the portable sensing device. The current response for the transfer of perchlorate anions by $Ni(DBM)_2$ across the micro-water/gel interface linearly increased as a function of the perchlorate ion concentration. The technique of differential pulse stripping voltammetry was also utilized to improve the sensitivity of the perchlorate anion detection down to 10 ppb. This was acquired by preconcentrating perchlorate anions in the gel layer by means of holding the ion transfer potential at 0 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl) for 30 s followed by stripping the complexed perchlorate ion with the ligand. The effect of various potential interfering anions on the perchlorate sensor was also investigated and showed an excellent selectivity over $Br^-$, $NO_2{^-}$, $NO_3{^-}$, $CO{_3}^{2^-}$, $CH_3COO^-$ and $SO{_4}^{2^-}$ ions. As a final demonstration, some regional water samples from the Sincheon river in Daegu city were analyzed and the data was verified with that of ion chromatography (IC) analysis from one of the Korean-certified water quality evaluation centers.

In order to develop a controlled-release oral drug delivery system (DDS) of theophylline (TP), microporous membrane-coated tablets were prepared and evaluated in vitro and in vivo. Rapidly water-soluble core tablets of TP (300 mg) were prepared by wet granulation and compression technique, Then the core tablets were spray-coated with polyvinylchloride (PVC) in which micronized sucrose particles were dispersed. Effect of formula compositions of coating suspensions on the pharmaceutical characteristics such as membrane strength and dissolution was investigated in vitro. The membranes remained unbroken in pH 1.2 buffer at $37^{\circ}C$ at least for 2 hours after the disintergration test. TP was released from the coated-released tablets at a zero-order rate over 8 hours. The release at pH 1.2 and 4.0 was similar in rate but a little more rapid than that at pH 6.8. The coated tablets were administered to three healthy male volunteers and their saliva profiles of TP were compared with those from the commercial sustained release TP tablets such as Slobid and Asconthin. Saliva TP concentrations from the coated tablets were successfully sustained over 48 hours after the dosing and were comparable to those of the commercial sustained-release tablets. The membrane-coating technique is very simple and does not need any sophisticated equipments. In this respect, the membrane-coated tablets may be superior to the commercial sustained-release tablets and this technique is worth adopting by the pharmaceutical industries.

Numerous studies have investigated the occurrence and fate of microplastics in the environment; however, only limited effort has been devoted to exploring the characteristics of dissolved organic matter (DOM) leached from microplastics. In microplastic (MP)-contaminated environment, MPs are typically mixed with naturally-occurring particles, which interferes with their detection in the environment. Thus, it is necessary to distinguish between the DOM leached from MPs and those leached from natural particles and also to characterize their properties. This study investigated DOM leaching behavior from MPs (polystyrene: PS, polyvinylchloride: PVC) and natural particulates (forest soil: FS, litter leaves: LL) under light, which is considered one of the main weathering processes that affect MPs in the environment. The leached DOM concentrations and fluorescence characteristics were compared under dark versus light conditions. Regardless of the origins, UV light promoted DOM release from all the particulates. More DOM was released from natural particles than from MPs under both conditions. However, the effect of promoting DOM release by UV was more pronounced for MPs than for natural particles. It was observed from fluorescence spectra that the intensity of the humic-like region was substantially reduced when MP-derived DOM was exposed to UV light, whereas the change of intensity was very little for natural particles. Under light conditions, the ratio of protein-like to humic-like fluorescence of MP-derived DOM was higher than that of DOM from natural particles. This study implies that a substantial amount of DOM could be leached from MPs even in MP-polluted environment under UV irradiation. Protein/humic fluorescence ratio could be utilized as a fast probing indicator to separate the two sources of particles under light.

환경문제를 야기 시킬수 있는 질소의 용탈에 관한 문제는 수많은 연구를 통해 그 결과를 문헌에서 찾아볼 수 있다. 그러나 대부분의 연구가 질소의 토양내 용탈에 관해서 이루어진 반면에 토양의 답압과 토양의 종류에 따라 질소의 용탈 정도에 관한 연구는 그 결과를 문헌에서 찾아 보기가 어렵다. 본 연구는 토양의 종류와 답압의 정도가 질소의 용탈에 미치는 영향 그리고 토양에 잔류된 질소가 켄터키블루그래스의 성장에 주는 영향에 대해서 알아보기 위하여 수행 되었다. 질소는 총 147 kg $ha^{-1}$이 12주 동안 3회에 걸쳐 나누어 시비되었다. 토양의 종류는 성분비율에 따라 76.0:24.0, 80.8:19.2, 87.0:13.0 그리고 93.7:6.3% (sand:soil)의 4가지로 구성이 되었다. 토양은 PVC 파이프에 30 cm 깊이로 조성이 되었으며 토양층 밑에 5 cm의 자갈층으로 구성되었다. PVC 파이프 밑부분의 구멍을 통해 질소용탈수의 수집을 용이하게 하였으며 질소외 영양성분을 위해 Hoagland solution에서 질소만 제외하여 사용되었다. 켄터키블루그래스의 질과 예초량이 매주 측정이 되었으며 예초물은 건물량 측정을 위해 예초후 67도에서 24시간 동안 건조되었다. 질소용탈수는 매주 PVC 파이프의 밑부분을 통해 매주 수집이 되었다. 6.1 J $cm^{-2}$ 이상의 답압에너지는 더 많은 표면배수의 가능성을 야기 시킬 수 있다. 3.0과 6.1 J $cm^{-2}$ 사이의 답압에너지는 다른 처리구에 비해 더 많은 건물량이 측정이 되었고 적은 질소가 용탈이 되었다.

본 연구에서는 benzo-15-crown-5(B15C5)와 poly(acryloylmethylbenzo-15-crown-5)[poly(AMB15C5)] 화합물을 이온선택성 물질로 이용해서 $Pb^{2+}$를 전위차법으로 정량할 수 있는 탐침형 이온선택성 전극(coated wire-ion-selec-tive electrode[CWISE])을 개발하였다. 각각 감지막의 최적 조성은 B15C5의 경우에는 리간드 20 mg, 가소제인 tris(2-ethylhexyl) ester 165 mg, 지지체인 polyvinylchloride 75 mg 및 용매인 THF 0.7 mL이었으며 poly(AMB15C5) 경우에는 리간드 35 mg, 가소제인 tris(2-ethylhexyl) ester 160 mg, 지지체인 PVC [Polyvinyl Chloride] 70 mg 및 용매인 THF 2 mL이었다. 이 때 코팅용액의 리간드에 대한 무게함량은 각각 7.7%와 13.1%이었다. 각각의 전극은 $10^{-5} M{\sim}10^{-1}$ M 농도 범위에서 기울기가 28{\pm}1$ mV/decade인 직선성이 잘 성립하는 감응을 나타내었다. 또한 전극의 감응시간은 poly(AMB15C5) 경우에는 5분 이내였으며 B15C5의 경우에는 3분이내로 비교적 빠른 편이었다. 전극의 안정성은 크라운 에테르의 물에 대한 용해도 때문에 좋은 편은 아니었다. 최적 pH 조건은 pH 3~6이었으며 $Mg^{2+},\; Ca^{2+},\; Co^{2+},\; Ni^{2+},\; Cu^{2+},\; Zn^{2+}$ 및 $Cd^{2+}$는 방해가 거의 없었으나 $Na^+$와 $K^+$는 방해효과가 컸다. 그리고 본 연구에서 제조한 탐침형 이온선택성 전극을 이용하여 $Pb^{2+}$ 이온을 전위차 적정법으로 정량분석해 보았을 때 이론적인 당량점과 종말점이 잘 일키하는 결과를 얻었다.
