$17{\alpha}$-Ethynylestradiol (EE2) has gotten growing concerns due to its widely detected in the environment and high estrogenic potency. However, the knowledge on the photochemical behaviors of EE2 in natural waters is still limited. Herein, the photodegradation and estrogenic potency variation of EE2 induced by nitrate were studied using a sunlight simulator consisted by a 300 W medium pressure mercury lamp and 290 nm cut-off filters. It was found that EE2 could be photodegraded at a rate of $0.0193h^{-1}$ in pure aqueous solutions, and the photodegradation of EE2 could be significantly promoted by nitrate. The photodegradation removal rate of EE2 was increased from 9% in Milli-Q water to 85% in 2.0 mM nitrate solutions. Reactive species scavenging experiments demonstrated that the photogenerated $HO{\bullet}$ contributed about 55% to EE2 degradation. Fe(III), Cl- and dissolved humic acid (DHA) could inhibit the photodegradation of EE2 by competing the incident light and photogenerated $HO{\bullet}$, while $HCO_3{^-}$ had no influence on EE2 photodegradation. EE2 was determined to be phototransformed into organic chemicals without estrogenic potency by GC-MS and MCF-7 cell proliferation toxicity tests. These findings could extend our knowledge on the photochemical behaviors of steroid estrogens and provide information for ecological risk assessment.

반응성 페놀수지 폐액을 처리하기 위해 중공사막 모듈을 이용한 투과증발 막 탈수공정을 연구하였다. 이 공정의 거동을 예측하기 위한 모사모델을 확립하였고 여기에 사용되는 중요 기본 파라메타들을 평판형 막을 사용하여 직접 구하여 사용함으로써 공정모사의 정확성을 얻을 수가 있었다. 이들을 모사치와 중공사 투과증발 막으로 부터 직접 측정한 각 투과특성들을 비교한 결과 서로 잘 일치함을 보여 본 모사모델의 타당성을 입증하였다. 사용된 중공사막은 중공사 안쪽에 활성층이 도포되어 있으며 공급액은 중공사 내부로 공급하였다. 공급액의 막내에서의 흐름속도에 따라 온도분포가 결정되며 이에 따라 막 투과특성이 달라짐을 모사결과로부터 얻을 수가 있었다. 공급액 온도증가는 막을 통한 탈수 투과 속도를 증가시킬 뿐 아니라 반응속도 증가로 인하여 물 생성속도도 증가시킴으로써 공급액 저장조 내의 수분 함량은 이들 상반된 공정들에 의해 결정이 됨을 보였다. 투과압력이 공급액 증기압보다 훨씬 작은 범위에서 증가할 경우 투과추진력인 공급액과 투과부의 투과물 활성도비 감소가 크지 않아 투과특성을 약간 저하시킨다. 그러나 투과압력이 공급액의 증기압에 접근할 경우 활성도비 감소가 현저하게 일어나 투과특성저하가 급격히 일어난다.

Succinonitrile을 첨가한 새로운 에폭시 수지, diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A(DGEBA)/4, 4'-methylene dianiline(MDA)/succinonitrile(SN)계의 역학적 성질을 충격 저항실험과 응력 변형실험을 통하여 곁화반응 특성과 반응기구를 근거로 하여 고찰하였다. DGEBA/MDA계에 각각 다른 succinonitrile의 함량을 포함하는 계를 $80^{\circ}C$에서 1.5시간 동안 경화시킨 후 완전히 경화를 이루기 위하여 $150^{\circ}C$에서 1시간 동안 경화시킨 후 시험한 결과 Succinonitrile의 함량이 증가함에 따라 본 계의 충격강도는 점차적으로 증가하였으나 인장강도는 감소하였다. 그리고 Young률은 거의 일정하게 나타났으며, 신도는 succinonitrile의 함량이 10phr에서 최대값을 보였다. 본 실험으고부터 얻은 결과는 succinonitrile이 첨가됨으로써 주 사슬간의 결합길이가 연장되었기 때문임을 알았고, 적당량의 succinonitrile을 첨가함으로 에폭시 수지의 유연성이 개선됨을 알 수 있었다.

$Cr_2O_3$ nanoparticles were prepared via one-step reactive laser ablation of Cr in oxygen. The metastable $CrO_2$ phase was obtained through the subsequent oxidation of $Cr_2O_3$ nanoparticles under $O_2$ with gas pressures of up to 40 MPa. The as-prepared $Cr_2O_3$ nanoparticles are spherical or rectangular in shape with sizes ranging from 20 nm to 50 nm. High oxygen pressure annealing is effective in producing meta-stable $CrO_2$ from as-dried $Cr_2O_3$ nanoparticles, and the $Cr_2O_3$ nanoparticles exhibit a weak ferromagnetic behavior with an exchange bias of up to 11 mT that can be ascribed to the interfacial exchange coupling between uncompensated surface spins and the antiferromagnetic core. The $Cr_2O_3/CrO_2$ nanoparticles exhibit an enhanced saturation magnetization and a reduced exchange bias with an increasing faction of $CrO_2$ due to the elimination of uncompensated surface spins over the $Cr_2O_3$ nanoparticles when exposed to a high pressure of $O_2$ and/or possible phase segregation that results in a smaller grain size for both $Cr_2O_3$ and $CrO_2$.

SiAlON-based ceramics are some of the most typical oxynitride ceramic materials, which can be used as cutting tools for heat-resistant super-alloys (HRSA). SiAlON can be fabricated by using gas-pressure reactive sintering from the raw materials, nitrides and oxides such as $Si_3N_4$, AlN, $Al_2O_3$, and $Yb_2O_3$. In this study, we fabricate $Yb_{m/3}Si_{12-(m+n)}Al_{m+n}O_nN_{16-n}$ (m=0.3, n=1.9, 2.3, 2.7) ceramics by using gas-pressure sintering at different sintering temperatures. Then, the densification behavior, phase formation, microstructure, and hardness of the sintered specimens are characterized. We obtain a fully densified specimen with ${\beta}$-SiAlON after gas-pressure sintering at $1820^{\circ}C$ for 90 min. under 10 atm $N_2$ pressure. These SiAlON ceramic materials exhibited hardness values of ~92.9 HRA. The potential of these SiAlON ceramics for cutting tool application is also discussed.

Aluminum nitride (AlN) thin films with a TiN buffer layer have been fabricated on SUS430 substrate by RF reactive magnetron sputtering at room temperature under 25~75% $N_2$ /Ar. The characterization of film properties were performed using surface profiler, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS), and pressure-voltage measurement system. The deposition rates of AlN films were decreased with increasing the $N_2$ concentration owing to lower mass of nitrogen ions than Ar. The as-deposited AlN films showed crystalline phase, and with increasing the $N_2$ concentration, the peak of AlN(100) plane and the crystallinity became weak. Any change in the preferential orientation of the as-deposited AlN films was not observed within our $N_2$ concentration range. But in the case of 50% $N_2$ /Ar condition, the peak of (002) plane, which is determinant in pressure sensing properties, appeared. XPS depth profiling of AlN/TiN/SUS430 revealed Al/N ratio was close to stoichiometric value (45:47) when deposited under 50% $N_2/Ar$ atmosphere at room temperature. The output signal voltage of AlN sensor showed a linear behavior between 26~85 mV, and the pressure-sensing sensitivity was calculated as 7 mV/MPa.

In this study, extinction limit extension of unsteady $(CH_{4}+N_{2})$/air diffusion flames was investigated experimentally. A spatially locked flame in an opposing jet burner was perturbed by linear velocity variation, and time-dependent flame luminosity, transient maximum flame temperature and OH radical were measured over time with the high speed camera, Rayleigh scattering method and OH laser-induced fluorescence, respectively. Unsteady flames survive at strain rates that are much higher than the extinction limit of steady flames, and unsteady extinction limits extend as the slope of the strain rate increases or the initial strain rate decreases. We verified the validity of the equivalent strain rate concept by comparing the course of unsteady extinction process and steady extinction process, and it was found that the equivalent strain rate concept represents well the unsteady effect of a convective-diffusive zone. To investigate the reason of the unsteady extinction limit extension, we subtracted the time lag of the convective-diffusive zone by using the equivalent strain concept. Then the modified unsteady extinction limits become smaller than the original unsteady extinction limits, however, the modified unsteady extinction limits are still larger than the steady extinction limits. These results suggest that there exist the unsteady behavior of a diffusive-reactive zone near the extinction limit due to the chemical non-equilibrium states associated with unsteady flames.

음이온중합기구으로 나이론 6와 나이론공중합체를 합성하였다. 나이론탄성체는 카프록락탐과 이소시아네이트로 활성화된 폴리올을 음이온중합기구을 통해서 공중합을 하였다. 전기방사공정으로 제조된 나이론과 나이론공중합체는, FE-SEM으로 구조를 분석한 결과, 100$\sim$180 nm의 직경을 갖는 나노섬유들로 이루어진 다공성 부직포였다. DSC와 ATR FT-IR을 이용하여 결정화거동 및 구조를 분석하였다. 인장실험을 한 결과 나이론은 나이론탄성체에 비해서 인장강도는 크고, 신율은 감소된다. 결정영역인 PA블록과 무정형인 PE블록으로 된 나이론공중합체인 나이론 탄성체는 PE블록 비율이 클수록 인장강도는 낮아지고 신율은 증가된다. $O_2$와 $N_2$를 반응기체로 한 상압플라즈마로 전기방사된 나이론과 나이론탄성체의 부직포표면을 개질한 결과, 개질된 부직포표면은 표면개질 전보다 더 친수성을 보였으며 반면에 $CH_4$를 반응기체로 사용한 상압플라즈마로는 부직포표면을 개질하면 부직표면은 소수성을 나타내었다.

This paper presents an experimental work on the post-fire behavior of two kinds of innovative composite stub columns under eccentric compression. The partially precast steel reinforced concrete (PPSRC) column is composed of a precast outer-part cast using steel fiber reinforced reactive powder concrete (RPC) and a cast-in-place inner-part cast using conventional concrete. Based on the PPSRC column, the hollow precast steel reinforced concrete (HPSRC) column has a hollow column core. With the aim to investigate the post-fire performance of these composite columns, six stub column specimens, including three HPSRC stub columns and three PPSRC stub columns, were exposed to the ISO834 standard fire. Then, the cooling specimens and a control specimen unexposed to fire were eccentrically loaded to explore the residual capacity. The test parameters include the section shape, concrete strength of inner-part, eccentricity ratio and heating time. The test results indicated that the precast RPC shell could effectively confine the steel shape and longitudinal reinforcements after fire, and the PPSRC stub columns experienced lower core temperature in fire and exhibited higher post-fire residual strength as compared with the HPSRC stub columns due to the insulating effect of core concrete. The residual capacity increased with the increasing of inner concrete strength and with the decreasing of heating time and load eccentricity. Based on the test results, a FEA model was established to simulate the temperature field of test specimens, and the predicted results agreed well with the test results.
