In the present work, water-based gold nanofluids were synthesized by the solution plasma processing (SPP). The size distribution and the shape of gold nanoparticles in the nanofluids were investigated using high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM). The dispersion stability of gold nanofluids was characterized using zeta potential, as well. The thermal properties of gold nanofluids were measured by utilizing lambda measurement device. Nanofluids containing nanoparticles with $64.0{\pm}42.1\;nm{\sim}18.10{\pm}5.0\;nm$ in diameter were successfully synthesized. As diameter of nanoparticles decreased, dispersion stability of nanofluids increased and the enhanced ratio of thermal conductivity increased. The nanofluid with nanoparticles of $18.10\;{\pm}\;5.0\;nm$ in diameter showed approximately 3% improvement in thermal conductivity measurement and this could be due to the enhanced Brownian movement.

There are many factors affecting the results of CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing). Among them, the temperature is related to the removal rate and WIWNU (Within Wafer Non-Uniformity). In other words, the removal rate is proportional to the temperature and the variation of temperature distribution on a pad affects the non-uniformity within a wafer. In the former case, the active chemistry improves the rate of chemical reaction and the removal rate becomes better. But, there are not many advanced studies. In the latter case, a kinematical analysis between work-piece and pad can be obtained. And such result analysed from the mechanical aspect can be directly related to the temperature distribution on a pad affecting WIWNU. Meanwhile, the temperature change affects the quantities of both slurry and pad. The change of a pH value of the slurry chemistry due to a temperature variation affects the surface state of an abrasive particle and hence the agglomeration of abrasives happens above the certain temperature. And the pH alteration also affects the zeta potential of a pad surface and therefore the electrical force between pad and abrasive changes. Such results could affect the removal rate and etc. Moreover, the temperature changes the 1st and 2nd elastic moduli of a pad which are closely related to the removal rate and the WIWNU.

This study aimed to elucidate the relationship between theoretical parameters affecting the coagulation process and the real coagulation phenomenon applied to the dye wastewater. Emphasis was placed on the effective removal of the suspend particulates. Parameters studied in this study are pH, coagulant concentration and surface potential. Optimal dosages of coagulants by the measurement of the zeta potential at lower then $25^{\circ}C$ are 5\times$10^P-3}$ M of $FeCl_3 and 1.4\times10^{-6}M of Fe_2(SO_4)_3$. The results were well agreeded with the separate Jar-test results. Emphasis was also placed on the relationship between water quality and the content of SS. It was found that the COD and DOC were reduced to 65% and 85%, respectively. The turbidity at the above condition was reduced from 300 NTU to 0~1 NTU. Efforts were made to clarify the behavior of the suspend solid as affecting the water quality. 12,000~13,000 particles/10mL in $1~50\mu$m size range particulates in the raw wastewater were reduced to 300 particle/10mL in the same range after treatment. This research has proposed the methodology to find out the optimal condition of coagulation for small scale wastewater treatment plant or chemical coagulation process.

우리가 예상했던 DPNs의 지름은 약 500 nm였으며 이는 SEM과 AFM 영상, Size Distribution을 통해 기대했던 것과 유사한 크기를 가진다는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, Zeta potential은 약 $-17.8{\pm}4.4mV$으로 측정되었다. Zeta potential이 +30 mV이상이면 강한 양성을 띤다고 한다. 나노 입자의 Zeta potential이 강한 양성이면 nonspecific cellular interaction이 높아지지만 간에 의해 쉽게 제거되며, hemolytic activity가 높아지기 때문에 약물 전달을 하기에 적합하지 않은 것으로 알려져 있다. 또한 강한 음성이어도 간에 의해 제거될 확률이 높아진다. 하지만 나노 입자의 Zeta potential이 중성이거나 약한 전하를 띠면 혈액에서 제거가 잘 되지 않아 혈액에 오랫동안 남을 수 있어 약물전달에 유리하고, 약 -15 mV의 전하를 띤 입자는 tumor site에 high accumulation됨이 알려져 있다[14]. DPNs의 경우 $-17.8{\pm}4.4mV$이므로 인체에 적용하기에 적합한 것으로 판단된다. DPNs의 Encapsulation Efficiency는 약 $43.8{\pm}6.6%$로 Nano-precipitation과 같은 Bottom-up 방식보다 낮은 수치를 나타내었지만, 독성이 강한 Salinomycin을 사용함으로써 이를 해결할 수 있을 것으로 생각되며 적은 양의 약물만으로 항암효과를 나타낼 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 암세포와 함께 배양했을 때 형광 현미경으로 확인해본 결과 암세포 주변에 나노 입자가 이동한 것으로 보아 Targeting ligand나 Peptide, Aptamer를 이용하면 더욱 정확한 암세포 표적화를 이룰 수 있을 것으로 예상된다[15]. DPNs의 Drug Carrier로서의 평가는 Loading Amount와 Drug Releasing Profile을 통해 추가로 검증을 할 예정이며, Cell viability를 실행하여 DPNs의 In vitro 항암 효과를 확인하고 In vivo 실험을 진행할 예정이다.

Dispersion stability of the $Sm_xCe_{1-x}O_{2-2/x}$ nanoparticles, which was produced by hydrothermal process, was studied in aqueous suspension using ESA (Eletrokinetic Sonic Amplitude). The average particle size of the synthesized $Sm_xCe_{1-x}O_{2-2/x}$ at nanoparticles was about $5{\pm}2nm$. The dispersion and rheological behavior of the $Sm_xCe_{1-x}O_{2-2/x}$ nanoparticles aqueous suspension was investigated using $NH_4OH\;and\;HNO_3$ as a disperse agent. The colloidal stability of aqueous suspensions with $Sm_xCe_{1-x}O_{2-2/x}$ nanoparticles at different pH values has been investigated by means of zeta potential, average particle size, and the distribution of synthesized $Sm_xCe_{1-x}O_{2-2/x}$ nanoparticles. The isoelectric point of the $Sm_xCe_{1-x}O_{2-2/x}$ nanoparticles was at pH around 11 and the value of zeta potential was at its maximum near pH 6.5.

본 논문은 점성토 지반에 동전기 공법을 적용할 때 지반내에서 발생하는 현상과 그 특성을 고려하여 전기삼투 현상을 예측하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 납으로 오염된 카올린에 대해 실내실험을 수행하여, 동전기 처리 동안 변화하는 시료의 전압, 전류, 제타포텐셜, pH분포 등의 물리 화학적 현상 간 상관성을 고려한 전기삼투 유한차분 수치 해석 프로그램을 개발하여 실험 결과와 비교하고 각 현상을 검토하였다. 그 결과, 전기삼투 흐름은 점토의 화학적 특성과 전기적 특성 변화에 매우 민감하였다. 간극수의 이온 농도가 증가하면 흐름속도는 감소하였으며, 시간에 따라 배수량은 감소하였다.

In this study, we found that dewatering properties were related with physico-chemical properties such as sludge concentration, pH, and zeta potential with sewage sludge, Ionic contents in digested sludge were in the order of $Ca^{2+}$ (14.2 mg/g) > $Mg^{2+}$ (1.9 mg/g) > $Na^+$ (1.4 mg/g) > $K^+$ (1.0 mg/g). Divalent ion more than monovalent have influenced on physico-chemical and dewatering properties. Floc size distribution in activated (AS) and digested sludge (DS) increased on lower pH range to be near isoelectric point and than specific resistance to filtration (SRF) decreased. A linear increase in SRF ($5.25\times10^{13}\sim2.86\times10^{14}$ m/kg in AS and $6.89\times10^{14}\sim1.09\times10^{15}$ m/kg in DS) was observed throughout low concentration range of 1230~9960 mg/L in AS and 2700~5400 mg/L in DS.

Silver nanoparticles production by the green chemistry approach was investigated using an isolated marine actinomycetes strain. The isolated strain was identified as Streptomyces albidoflavus based on chemotaxonomic and ribotyping properties. The strain revealed production of silver nanoparticles both extracellular and intracellularly. Surface Plasmon Resonance analysis with the function of time revealed that particle synthesis by this strain is reaction time dependent. The produced particles were spherical shaped and monodispersive in nature and showed a single surface plasmon resonance peak at 410 nm. Size distribution histograms indicated production of 10-40-nm-size nanoparticles with a mean size of 14.5 nm. FT-IR spectra of nanopartilces showed N-H, C-H, and C-N stretching vibrations, denoting the presence of amino acid/peptide compounds on the surface of silver nanoparticles produced by S. albidoflavus. Synthesized nanoparticles revealed a mean negative zeta potential and electrophoretic mobility of -8.5 mV and -0.000066 $cm^2/Vs$, respectively. The nanoparticles produced were proteinaceous compounds as capping agents with -8.5 mV zeta potential and revealed antimicrobial activity against both Gram-negative and -positive bacterial strains. Owing to their small size, these particles have greater impact on industrial application spectra.
