From the effect of bound water, this study aims to seek the potential reasons for difference of mechanical experiment results of subgrades soils. To attain the comparatively test condition of bound water, dry forming (DF) and wet forming (WF) were used in the specimen forming process before testing, series of laboratory tests, i.e., CBR tests, direct shear tests and compaction tests. The measured optimal moisture contents, maximum dry densities, CBR, cohesion c, and internal friction angle 𝜑 were given contrastive analysis. Then to detect the adsorptive bound water in the subgrade soils, the thermal gravimetric and differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC) test were employed under different heating rates. The free water, loosely bound water and tightly bound water in soils were qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed. It was found that due to the different dehydration mechanics, the lost bound water in DF and WF process show their own characteristics. This may lead to the different mechanical properties of tested soils. The clayey particles have a great influence on the bound water adsorbed ability of subgrade soils. The more the clay content, the greater the difference of mechanical properties tested between the two forming methods. Moreover, in highway construction of southern China, the wet forming method is recommended for its higher authenticity in simulating the subgrade filed humidity.

Scales generated inside pipes cause negative effects on heat transfer performance, pressure loss and flow rate due to increased thermal resistance and reduced flow cross-sectional area. If these scales are not prevented or eliminated, thermal-fluid performance of the facilities can be deteriorated, or in extreme cases, accidents such as explosion due to overheating can occur. There are two ways to remove the scales, physically and chemically. Removing the scales physically needs specific machines which are expensive, and removing them chemically may provoke corrosion or shorten the age of the facilities. In this study, an eco-friendly pipe scale cleaner using natural organic acid is developed by applying the concept of a limestone cave generation. The manufactured scale cleaner is applied to remove the scales in industrial, water heating and urinal pipes. The results show that this cleaner removes scales more effectively and safely compared to existing scale treatments. Scale removal efficiencies of this work is 1.2~10.7 times for industrial pipes and 1.8~15.5 times for boiler water heating pipes higher than those of conventional cleaners.

The reaction of titanium tetraisopropoxide with 2 equiv of N,N-diethyl acetoacetamide affords Ti($O^iPr)_2(CH_3COCHCONEt_2)_2$ (1) as colorless crystals in 80% yield. Compound 1 is characterized by spectroscopic (Mass and $^1H/^{13}C$ NMR) and microanalytical data. Molecular structure of 1 has been determined by a single crystal X-ray diffraction study, which reveals that it is a monomeric, cis-diisopropoxide and contains a six coordinate Ti(IV) atom with a cis($CONEt_2$), trans($COCH_3$) configuration (1a) in a distorted octahedral environment. Variable-temperature $^1H$ NMR spectra of 1 indicate that it exists as an equilibrium mixture of cis, trans (1a) and cis, cis (1b) isomers in a 0.57 : 0.43 ratio at -20$^{\circ}C$ in toluene-$d_8$ solution. Thermal properties of 1 as a MOCVD precursor for titanium dioxide films have been evaluated by thermal gravimetric analysis and vapor pressure measurement. Thin films of pure anatase titanium dioxide (after annealing above 500$^{\circ}C$ under oxygen) have been grown on Si(100) with precursor 1 in the substrate temperature range of 350- 500$^{\circ}$ using a bubbler-based MOCVD method.

A mass balance method established in this laboratory was applied to determine the purity of an endosulfan-II pure substance. Gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID) was used to measure organic impurities. Total of 10 structurally related organic impurities were detected by GC-FID in the material. Water content was determined to be 0.187% by Karl-Fischer (K-F) coulometry with an oven-drying method. Non-volatile residual impurities was not detected by Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) within the detection limit of 0.04% (0.7 ${\mu}g$ in absolute amount). Residual solvents within the substance were determined to be 0.007% in the Endosulfan-II pure substance by running GC-FID after dissolving it with two solvents. The purity of the endosulfan-II was finally assigned to be ($99.17{\pm}0.14$)%. Details of the mass balance method including interpretation and evaluating uncertainties of results from each individual methods and the finally assayed purity were also described.

This study investigates fire-retardant performances and combustion/thermal characteristics of fire-retardant treated wood by comparing them with those of fire-retardant untreated wood from the expreimental resutls of cone calorimeter and thermo-gravimetric(TG) analyzer. Hazardousness of combustion product gases for fire-retardant treated wood and untreasted wood were also observed from the results of internal finish material incombustibility test according to the Korea standard code of KS F 2271. In this study, we also tried to improve the fire retardant performance of wood by applying fire-retardant chemical composites, and to secure the fire safety performance in buildings. Red pine (Pinus densiflora) was selected as a test specimen because it is mostly used as a building material in Korea. Fire retardant chemical composites (FRCs) were prepared by mixing boron, phosphorous, and nitrogen species and treated by press-impregnation method. Water-based FRCs were composed of 3% boric acid($H_3BO_3$), 3% borax decahydrate($Na_2B_4O_7$), 8% ammonium carbonate($(NH_4)_2CO_3$), diammonium phosphate ($(NH_4)_2HPO_4$) varied from 10-30% and potassium carbonate($K_2CO_3$) varied from 10-30%. From the test results of cone calorimeter, TG analysis and gas hazard assessments, newly proposed were the optimal composition and production methods of FRCs which can sufficiently meet fire-retardant level 3 based on Korea law of construction. Thus, the FRCs, developed in this study, are anticipated to contribute to the improvement of fire safety and widespread of usage in wood as building materials.

4,4'-디페닐 메탄 디이소시아네이트(MDI)와 폴리에스테르 타입 폴리올인 $Nippollan4010^{(R)}(\bar{M}_n2000)$을 반응시킨 후, 실록산 디아민으로 유기화된 MMT를 반응시킨 다음 1,4부탄디올을 사슬연장하여 디메틸아세트아미드(DMAc) 내에서 고형분 $25\;wt\%$로 조정한 후 폴리우레탄/MMT 나노복합체를 합성하였다. 이러한 나노복합체는 점토의 실리케이트 층간에 실록산 주사슬들이 효과적으로 삽입된 형태를 가짐으로써 단순히 혼합되어 분산된 경우보다 박리 효과가 우수할 것으로 예상할 수 있다. 실험 중 반응 정도는 FT-IR로 확인하였으며, 분산 및 박리정도는 X-선회절(XRD)와 투과 전자 현미경(TEM)으로 관찰하였으며, 인장강도는 UTM을 이용하여 측정하였다. 열적 성질은 열무게 분석(TGA)을 이용하였으며, 그 외 접촉각을 측정하여 표면에너지의 변화를 확인하여 보았다. XRD와 TEM분석 결과 폴리우레탄/친유성 MMT 나노복합체에 분산된 MMT는 층간 간격이 어느 정도 증가된 삽입된 구조로 되어 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 폴리우레탄/친유성 MMT 나노복합체의 인장강도와 탄성률은 폴리우레탄/$Na^+-MMT$ 나노복합체의 그것보다 월등히 증가하였다.

The particle size of MgO was examined as a function of the Na content in $Mg(OH)_2$ powders and the calcination temperature. $Mg(OH)_2$ suspension was obtained by dropwise precipitation of $Mg(NO_3)_2{\cdot}6H_2O$ and NaOH solutions. The suspension was diluted by varying the dilution volume ratio of distilled water to $Mg(OH)_2$ suspension to change the Na salt concentration in the suspension. $Mg(OH)_2$ slurry was filtered and dried at $60^{\circ}C$ under vacuum, and then its $Mg(OH)_2$ powder was calcined to produce MgO with different amount of Na content at $500\sim900^{\circ}C$ under air. Investigation of the physical and chemical properties of the various MgO powders with dilution ratio and calcination temperature variation was done by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, BET specific surface area and thermal gravimetric analysis. It was observed that MgO particle size could depend on the condition of calcination temperature and dilution ratio of the $Mg(OH)_2$ suspension. The particle size of the MgO depends on the Na content remaining in the $Mg(OH)_2$ powder, which powder was prepared by changing the dilution ratio of the $Mg(OH)_2$ suspension. This change increased as the calcination temperature increased and decreased as the dilution ratio increased. The growth of MgO particle size according to the increase of temperature was more effective when there was a relatively high content of Na. The increase of Na content lowered the temperature at which decomposition of $Mg(OH)_2$ to MgO took place, thereby promoting the crystal growth of MgO.

탄소섬유 강화 복합재료는 높은 비강도 및 비강성을 가지기 때문에 자동차 산업, 선박, 우주 항공 산업과 같은 다양한 산업 분야에 적용되어 왔으며, 수요가 점차 증가하고 있다. 탄소섬유 강화 복합재료에는 기지재로 주로 에폭시(Epoxy)와 같이 점도가 낮고 젖음 특성이 우수하며 강도가 양호한 열경화성(Thermosetting) 수지가 사용된다. 열경화성 수지는 우수한 물리적 특성을 나타내지만 재사용이 어렵다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 재사용이 가능한 탄소섬유 강화 열가소성 수지(Thermoplastic) 복합재료 개발 및 탄소섬유 재사용에 관한 많은 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 열분해 방법을 사용하여 탄소섬유/에폭시 복합재료로부터 탄소섬유와 수지를 분리하여 탄소섬유를 재활용하였다. 에폭시의 분해도(Degree of decomposition)는 열중량분석기(TGA)와 시차 주사현미경(SEM)을 통해 확인하였다. 수지로부터 분리해낸 탄소섬유는 절단(Cutting)과 그라인딩(Grinding) 방법을 거쳐 탄소섬유 복합재료 시트(Sheet)를 제조하였다. 재활용 탄소 섬유로 제조된 탄소섬유 시트는 각각 다른 냉각조건에서 결정화 엔탈피(Crystallization enthalpy)와 기계적 특성, 표면과 단면의 형태를 분석하였다.

본 연구는 사용 후 핵연료의 금속전환 공정에서 발생되는 폐용융염을 고형화하는 방법으로 실리카 함유 무기물을 이용하여 폐용융염을 열적, 수화학적 안정한 화합물로 전환하는 방법을 제안하였다. 실리카 함유 무기물(SAP)은 일반적인 sol-gel process로 합성되었으며, $SiO_2,\;Al_2O_3$ 및 $P_2O_5$로 구성된다. 제조된 SAP을 $650-850^{\circ}C$에서 폐용융염과 반응시켜 각 금속염화물에 대한 반응특성 및 열안정성을 조사하고, PCT 침출시험법을 이용하여 수화학적 안정성을 평가하였다. LiCl은 $LixAlxSi1-_xO_{2-x}$와 $Li_3PO_4$로, CsCl는 CS-aluminosilicate와 $CS_2AlP_3O_{10}$로, $SrCl_2$는 $Sr5(PO_4)_3Cl$로, $CeCl_3$는 $CePO_4$로 전환되었다. 9시간 동안 반응시킨 후, 금속염화물의 전환율은 $90{\sim}99%$였으며, $1100^{\circ}C$까지 열감량은 1wt%이하로 TGA(Thermo Gravimetric Analysis)로 확인하였다. Cs 및 Sr의 침출속도는 $10^{-2}{\sim}10^{-4}g/m^2\;day$로 매우 높은 내침출특성을 나타내었다. 이상의 결과로부터, SAP으로 명명된 안정화제(stabilizer)는 금속염화물로 구성된 폐용융염에 대해 매우 효과적인 것으로 판단된다. SAP을 이용한 폐용융염의 고화처리방법은 후속적인 안정성의 검증과정을 통하여 폐용융염의 최종처분부피를 최소화할 수 있는 대안적인 고화방법으로 고려될 수 있을 것으로 기대 된다.
