  • 생칠(L), 정제칠(TL), 생칠과 아교를 배합한 천연접착제(LG), 우루시올과 아교를 배합한 천연접착제(UG)의 자외선에 의한 노화 특성을 비교 분석하기 위해 도막 시편에 자외선을 조사하고 광택도, 주사전자현미경분석, 적외선분광분석, 인장전단 접착강도 측정을 수행하였다. 천연접착제 LG, UG의 광택 저하 속도는 생칠보다 다소 느렸고 손실률도 생칠보다 낮았다. 또한 생칠 도막의 표면은 자외선 노출 시간에 따라 다당류 층이 드러나 구형이 손상되면서 크랙이 발생한 것으로 관찰되었고 천연접착제 LG와 UG는 매끄러운 표면이 계속 유지됨을 관찰하였다. FT-IR 분석 결과 생칠과 정제칠 도막에서 자외선 조사 시간이 증가할수록 전체적으로 피크 세기가 감소하였고 천연접착제 LG는 변화가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 천연접착제 UG에서는 일부 피크가 사라졌고 전체적으로 세기가 감소했다. 생칠의 인장전단 접착강도는 자외선 노출 600시간 이후로 강도 값이 크게 떨어지는 것에 비해 천연접착제 LG와 UG의 접착강도는 다소 감소하거나 유지되었다. 선행연구 결과와 비교하면 옻과 아교를 이용한 천연접착제는 생칠에 비해 고온 고습에서도 큰 변화를 나타내지 않았고 자외선 조건에서도 물성을 유지하므로 생칠에 비해 내구적인 것으로 나타났다.

  • 자외선은 가시 광선보다 파장이 짧은 전자기파이며, 오존층을 통과하는 자외선이 피부 노화의 주요 원인이다. 피부 조직을 자외선에 만성적으로 노출 시키면 인간 각질 형성 세포에서 Mitogen-activated Protein Kinases (MAPKs) 신호 전달 경로가 활성화되어 매트릭스 metalloproteinases (MMPs) 생성이 증가한다. 본 연구에서는 제주도의 초본 추출물을 대상으로 자외선 자극을 통해 인간 각질 형성 세포(HaCaTs)의 항 노화 효과에 대해 조사 하였다. 우리는 자외선 유도 된 각질 형성 세포에서 MMP-1 유전자와 단백질 발현 수준을 측정 하였으며 그 결과, Thymus quinquecostatus 추출물(TQE)은 자외선 조사된 HaCaT 세포에서 의해 농도 의존적으로 MMP-1의 발현을 유의하게 감소시키는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한, TQE는 MAPK 신호 전달요소 인 ERK1/2, JNK1/2 및 p38 단백질의 자외선 유도에 따른 인산화를 유의 적으로 감소시켰다. 이러한 결과는 MAPKs 경로가 인간 각질 세포에서 UV 유도 MMP-1 생산에 대한 TQE의 억제 효과에 기여할 수 있음을 시사한다. 우리의 결과는 아마도 인간 각질형성 세포에서 TQE가 자외선 유도된 MMP-1 생산을 억제하는 피부 노화 소재로 활용될 수 있음을 시사한다.

  • 인간의 눈과 피부는 태양에너지에 노출이 되어진다. 특히 자외선 노출은 각막 질환에서 중요한 원인으로서 손상이 되어진다. 각막의 이러한 손상은 망막에 영향을 주게된다. 그러므로 눈의 기능은 매우 심각한 영양을 받게 된다. 결과적으로 눈에서 자외선의 보호는 눈 건강에 매우 중요하다. 그러므로 태양에너지네 의한 강한 자외선 환경에 생활하는 인간의 눈은 자외선 차단 선글라스, 안경렌즈, 그리고 콘택트렌즈에 의해서 각막과 안구를 보호하고 있다. 최종적으로 자외선 차단 렌즈 장치는 피검자를 위해 일시적으로 안경사들이 이용할 수가 있다. 물론 앞으로 이런 특수한 렌즈는 연구자들에 의해 개발과 연구가 되어야 한다.

  • In the present study we studied the growth, photosynthetic traits and protective mechanisms against oxidative stress in the primary loaves of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) seedlings with or without UV-B treatment. Cucumber seedings were irradiated with UV-B for 10 days in environment-controlled growth chambers. The primary leaves irradiated with UV-B showed reduction in leaf length and decreased biomass production. The reduced biomass production seemed to be due to a negative effect of UV-B radiation on the photosynthetic process. Changes in chemical properties of leaf, such as chi a/b ratio affected photosynthesis. UV-B significantly affected chl b content compared with chi a in the light harvesting complex resulting reduced photosynthetic activity Fv/Fm decreased with an UV-B stress, suggesting that the photosynthetic apparatus, and particularly, PS II was damaged under UV-B stress. Malondialdehyde(MDA) concentration which represents the state of membrane lipid peroxidation Increased significantly under UV-B stress confirming an oxidative stress. UV-B exposure with SA solution(0.1-1.0 mM) can partially ameliorated some of the detrimental effects of UV-B stress. Leaf injuries including loss of chlorophyll and decreased ratio of Fv/Fm were reduced with combined application of UV-B and SA. ABA and JA showed similar mode of action in physiological effects on photosynthetic activities though the levels were lower than those from SA treated plants. Chloroplast ultrastructure was also affected by UV-B exposure. The thickness of leaf tissue components decreased and the number of grana and thylakoids was reduced in chloroplast applied UV-B or SA alone. At combined stress granal and stromal thylakoids were less affected. The leaves under combined stress acquired a significant tolerance to oxidative stress. From these results, it can be suggested that SA may have involved a protective role against UV-B induced oxidative damage.

  • Background : The purpose of this study is to verify the type of influence on the skin color according to the photoaging symptoms depending on the degree of external activities among the factors that influence the skin due to UV exposure and to obtain the basic study data on the physical therapy of the skin. Methods : In this study, in order to investigate the type of influence on the skin color according to the photoaging symptoms when the body is exposed to the UV rays having various effects on our body, a study was conducted using questionnaires and skin color measurement tool targeting 20 male college soccer students with many external activities and the senior high school students who has relatively less external activities due to the preparation for college entrance. The skin color was measured and the results were compared. Result : In the test group having relatively higher external activities, while they had less use of the sunscreen, they had more degree of UV exposure, and for the recognition of ultraviolet hazard, more were aware that it was harmful. In addition, in the skin color measurement test conducted targeting the son and the father in order to investigate the association between the skin color and the genetic factors, the experimental group showed a significant difference(p<.05) but the control group did not show any significant difference(p>.05). Conclusion : Based on such study results, the UV exposure time and the use of sunscreen are thought to be an important factor in the skin care.

  • In the last decade, there has been an exponential increase of scientific interest in smart additive manufacturing (AM) technology. Among the different AM techniques, one of the most commonly applied processes is digital light processing (DLP). DLP uses a digital projector screen to flash an ultraviolet light which cures photopolymer resins. The resin is cured to form a solid to produce parts with precise high dimensional accuracy. During the curing process, there are several process parameters that need to be optimized. Among these, the exposure time affects the quality of the 3D printed specimen such as mechanical strength and dimensional accuracy. This study examines optimal exposure times and their impact on printed part. It was found that there is optimal exposure time for printed part to have appropriate mechanical strength and accurate dimensions. The gel fraction and TGA test results confirmed that the improvement of mechanical properties with the increasing UV exposure time was due to the increase of crosslinked network formation with UV exposure time in acrylic resins. In addition, gel fraction and thermogravimetric analysis were employed to microscopically investigate how this process parameter impacts mechanical performance.

  • Grapehen, a single atomic layer of graphite, has been in the spotlight and researched in vaious fields, because its fine mechanical, electrical properties, flexibility and transparence. Synthesis methods for large-area graphene such as chemical vaper deposition (CVD) and mechanical, chemical exfoliation have been reported. In particular, chemical exfoliation method receive attention due to low cost process. Chemical exfoliation method require reduction of graphene oxide in the process of exfoliation such as chemical reduction by strong reductant, thermal reduction on high temperature, and optical reduction via ultraviolet light exposure. Among these reduction methods, optical reduction is free from damage by strong reductant and high temperature. However, optical reduction is economically infeasible because the high cost of short-wavelength ultraviolet light sorce. In this paper, we make graphene-oxide and lanthanoid ion mixture aqueous solution which has highly optical absorbency in selective wevelength region. Sequentially, we synthesize reduced graphene oxide (RGO) using the solution and visible laser beam. Concretely, graphene oxide is made by modified hummer's method and mix with 1 ml each ultraviolet ray absorbent Gd3+ ion, Green laser absorbent Tb3+ ion, Red laser absorbent Eu3+ ion. After that, we revivify graphene oxide by laser exposure of 300 ~ 800 nm layser 1mW/cm2 +. We demonstrate reproducibility and repeatability of RGO through FT-IR, UV-VIS, Low temperature PL, SEM, XPS and electrical measurement.

  • Herein, the integration of solution-processed polymer thin-film transistors (TFTs) that were fabricated using selective wettability through ultraviolet (UV) exposure into a reflective liquid crystal display is demonstrated. From the experimental results of energy-dispersive spectroscopy, the composition of carbon and fluorine enhancing the hydrophobicity in the polymer chains was found to play a critical role in the wetting selectivity upon UV exposure. The polymer TFTs fabricated through the wettability-patterning process exhibited long-term stability and reliability. This wetting-selectivity-based patterning technique will be useful for constructing different types of solution-processed electronic and optoelectronic devices.

  • In the pasteurization of escalator handrails using ultraviolet (UV) sterilizers, a combination of light distribution and escalator speed has priority over other important factors. Furthermore, since part of the escalator handrail has a curved structure, proper design is needed to improve the sterilization rate on the surfaces touched by users. In this paper, two types of sterilizers satisfying these conditions are manufactured with 275-nm UV-C LEDs, after modeling the three-dimensional (3D) structure of an escalator handrail and simulating optical distributions of UV-C irradiation on the handrail's surface according to light-emitting diode (LED) positions and reflector variations in the sterilizers. Pasteurization experiments with the UV-C LED sterilizers are conducted on six types of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, with exposure times of 0.2, 5, and 15 s at an actual installation distance of 20 mm. The sterilization rates for the gram-positive bacteria are 10.63% to 27.94% at 0.2 s, 89.44% to 96.30% at 5 s, and 99.64% to 99.88% at 15 s. Those for the gram-negative bacteria are 57.70% to 77.63% at 0.2 s, 98.90% to 99.49% at 5 s, and 99.88% to 99.99% at 15 s. The power consumption of the UV-C LED sterilizer is about 8 W, which can be supplied by a self-generation module instead of an external power supply.

  • Biodegradable polybutylene succinate(PBS) is an environment friendly plastics for fisheries, because it can mitigate the ghost fishing problem caused by gill-net and trap fisheries. To evaluate photodegradability of PBS monofilament in comparison with polyamide(PA) and polyethylene(PE) monofilament, these 3 types of monofilaments were spun and exposed to ultraviolet light(UV) of weather-ometer for 900 hours, and then their modification, crystal structure, strength, and extensibility were analysed. PBS monofilament did not show any crack and maintained its crystal structure after 900 hour exposure to UV whereas PE monofilament began showing cracks and structure modification after 600 hour exposure. Under UV exposure, the strength and extensibility decreased more rapidly in PBS than in PA and PE. We estimate that gill nets made of PBS monofilament can endure for about 1 year. The breaking strength and elongation decreased linearly with the exposure time for the 3 types of monofilaments. The derived regression equations of the residual tenacity(RT, kg/$mm^2$) and the residual extensibility(RE, %) with the exposure time in year(Y) for each monofilament were; PBS : RT=48.598 - 8.6437Y($R^2=0.93$), RE=28.165 - 7.3233Y($R^2=0.98$), P A : RT=59.771 - 8.6437Y($R^2=0.98$), RE=32.198 - 5.2772Y($R^2=0.92$), P E : RT=60.898 - 5.6528Y($R^2=0.98$), RE=11.887 - 0.7188Y($R^2=0.98$).
