This study investigates Ag coated Cu2O nanoparticles that are produced with a changing molar ratio of Ag and Cu2O. The results of XRD analysis reveal that each nanoparticle has a diffraction pattern peculiar to Ag and Cu2O determination, and SEM image analysis confirms that Ag is partially coated on the surface of Cu2O nanoparticles. The conductive paste with Ag coated Cu2O nanoparticles approaches the specific resistance of 6.4 Ω·cm for silver paste(SP) as (Ag) /(Cu2O) the molar ratio increases. The paste(containing 70 % content and average a 100 nm particle size for the silver nanoparticles) for commercial use for mounting with a fine line width of 100 μm or less has a surface resistance of 5 to 20 μΩ·cm, while in this research an Ag coated Cu2O paste has a larger surface resistance, which is disadvantageous. Its performance deteriorates as a material required for application of a fine line width electrode for a touch panel. A touch panel module that utilizes a nano imprinting technique of 10 μm or less is expected to be used as an electrode material for electric and electronic parts where large precision(mounting with fine line width) is not required.

We applied column experiments to investigate the environmental fate and transport of silver nanoparticles(AgNPs) in fully saturated conditions of porous media. These column experiments were performed to emphasize oxidation method with H2O2 concentration and acidic conditions. The mobility of AgNPs was decreased with the increasing ionic strength that the surface charge of AgNPs(zeta potential) was neutralized with the presence of positive ions of Na+. Additionally, it was also affected due to that not only more increased aggregated size of AgNPs and surface charge of quartz sand. The decreased breakthrough curves(BTCs) of bisphenol-A(BPA) and 17α-ethynylestradiol(EE2) were removed approximately 35.3 and 40%. This is due to that endocrine disrupting chemicals(EDCs) were removed with the release of OH․ radicals by the fenton-like mechanisms from acidic and fenton-like reagent presenting. This results considered that higher input AgNPs with acidic conditions is proved to realistic in-situ oxidation method. Overall, it should be emphasized that a set of column experiments employed with adjusting pH and H2O2 concentration in proved to be effective method having potential ability of in-situ degradation for removing organic contaminants such as BPA and EE2.

Jeju is a small island of 650,000 with a mixture of cities and farming and fishing villages, but famous for many things including longevity, Haenyeo community culture, strong sprit of Jeju Women, Kim Man Deok, etc. The elderly in Jeju rural areas including Haenyeo women divers run a community centered on labor. The women divers’ community, in particular, is the most representative community, and was inscripted by UNESCO in 2016 as Intangible Cultural Heritage. Additionally, Jeju's residential culture is unique. In Jeju area, Jeong Nang, consisting of 3 wooden bars (gate attached to fence) is used instead of a main gate. When you enter the Jeong Nang (gate), there are the Ankeorae, Barkeorae, and Mokeorae within the same fence (refer to Figure 3 below). In addition to acknowledging the economic and emotional independence between generations in different houses within the same fence, it is also a structure that encourages communal life in the yard for ritual ceremony, communal labor, playing, etc., which guarantees independence between generations plus "filial piety" for the elderly. Voluntary intergenerational communication in this space can be very significant. Jeong Nang is the main gate to connect all the family members within the fence to their neighbors. It is not closed or locked but open which signifies complete trust between neighbors. Specifically, this study seeks to utilize the spatial concept of the community of Ankeorae, Barkeorae, and Mokeorae traditional houses of Jeju as shown in the pictures above. Hanok, a Korean traditional house, is a patriarchal, economically and emotionally dependent community model in which elderly people and younger generations utilize a kitchen in common and the elderly in the house have the highest authority as a dining community. However, each generation in Ankeorae, Bakeorae, and Mokeorae has its own independent kitchen, though they are one large family within a fence connected by Jeong Nang, and they also guarantee economic and emotional independence. Intergenerational privacy is guaranteed. In addition, there is an independent space which is used when a visitor comes in or relatives visit. It is a model for communication between generations, with dignity and independence, respect, love, trust and acceptance coexisting The reasons for choosing the culture of Haenyeo community for the silver model archetype are as follows. Jeju women divers have learned how to dive without oxygen tank since they were young. They have lived on diving as Haenyeo for all their lives. Even after becoming elderly, they continue to live on diving to educate children and grandchildren. They share a sisterhood with grandmothers, great grandmothers, daughters and granddaughters. They are divided into superior, middle, and lower divers according to their ability and experience. And if one reaches 80 and 90 years of age, it will be material in the sea. As for the labor of Haenyeos, there is a saying: "We are daring to die for diving to keep our family welfare." As long as the life continues, their labor continues, their dignity is maintained as they in turn maintain the dignity of nature. Many of the “old-old” elderly divers, in their late 80s and beyond, are found floating dead in the sea while collecting shells without oxygen tank. That’s Haenyeo’s strong spirit. In 2016, for those above the age of 80, the Jeju Provincial Government decided to reinstitute the tradition of maintaining a separate area in the shallows called " Halmang Badang " (“Sea of Grandma”), so that oldest Haenyeos can safely take care of themselves. The way of life of these Haenyeos was similar to the typical life style of retired Babe Boomers, who had been devoted to social contribution until the last minute, returning expert knowledge to the community. That’s why Haenyeo community was chosen as a typical archetype for a new silver model development.

이전 연구에서 올레핀/파라핀 분리를 위해 poly(ethylene oxide)(PEO)/Ag nanoparicles (AgNPs)(전구체AgBF4)/pbenzoquinone (p-BQ) 복합막이 제조되었으며, 이 복합체 분리막의 성능은 100시간까지 선택도 10과 투과도 15 GPU로 유지 되는 것이 확인되었다. 하지만 전구체인 AgBF4의 가격이 고가이기 때문에, 본 연구에서는 가격 측면에서 경쟁력이 있는 AgNO3를 Ag nanoparticles의 전구체로 사용하여 실험을 진행하였다. 그 결과 이미 존재하고 있는 NO3 -가 AgNPs를 감싸고 있기 때문에 분리 성능이 나오지 않는 것으로 관찰되었다. 이번 연구에서는 AgNO3를 Ag nanoparticles의 전구체로 사용하여도 높은 성능을 내기 위해 전자수용체 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ)를 사용하여 PEO, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyether block amide-1657 (PEBAX-1657) 고분자 복합막을 제조한 결과, 고분자와 전자수용체의 영향과는 무관하게 분리 성능을 내지 못하는 것으로 분석되었으며, 이는 분리성능에 전구체의 음이온이 결정적 역할을 하는 것으로 분석되었다.

An imprinted potentiometric sensor was developed for direct and selective determination of gabapentin. Sensor is based on carbon paste electrode adapted by graphene oxide that is decorated with silver nanoparticles and mixed with molecularly imprinted polymers nanoparticles using gabapentin as a template molecule. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by Fourier transmission infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Under optimal experimental conditions, the studied sensor exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity with LOD of 4.8×10–11 mol L–1. It provided a wide linearity range from 1×10–10 to 1×10–3 mol L–1and high stability for more than 3 mo. The sensor was effectively used for the determination of gabapentin in pharmaceutical tablets and spiked plasma samples.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the Silver Spike Point (SSP) on functional constipation. The subjects were 14 female students who attended a university located in Gyeonggi province and consent to participate in this study. The inclusion criteria were the fulfillment of two or more diagnostic criteria of Rome III or scoring four or more points in Constipation Assessment Scale (CAS). The CAS score was significantly decreased in the experimental group (from 14.29±1.38 to 6.86±2.91) (p<.05), however, there was no significant change in the control group (from 14.29±1.49 to 14.14±1.21). The present study suggests that SSP intervention is effective in mitigating constipation.

In this paper, the recovery and nanoparticle synthesis of Ag from low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) by-products are studied. The effect of reaction behavior on Ag leaching conditions from the LTCC by-products is confirmed. The optimum leaching conditions are determined to be: 5 M HNO3, a reaction temperature of 75℃, and a pulp density of 50 g/L at 60 min. For the selective recovery of Ag, the [Cl]/[Ag] equivalence ratio experiment is performed using added HCl; most of the Ag (more than 99%) is recovered. The XRD and MP-AES results confirm that the powder is AgCl and that impurities are at less than 1%. Ag nanoparticles are synthesized using a chemical reduction process for recycling, NaBH4 and PVP are used as reducing agents and dispersion stabilizers. UV-vis and FE-SEM results show that AgCl powder is precipitated and that Ag nanoparticles are synthesized. Ag nanoparticles of 100% Ag are obtained under the chemical reaction conditions.

A metal mesh TCE film is fabricated using a series of processes such as UV imprinting of a transparent trench pattern (with a width of 2-5 μm) onto a PET film, filling it with silver paste, wiping of the surface, and heatcuring the silver paste. In this work nanosized (40-50 nm) silver particles are synthesized and mixed with submicron (250-300 nm)-sized silver particles to prepare silver paste for the fabrication of metal mesh-type TCE films. The filling of these silver pastes into the patterned trench layer is examined using a specially designed filling machine and the rheological testing of the silver pastes. The wiping of the trench layer surface to remove any residual silver paste or particles is tested with various mixture solvents, and ethyl cellosolve acetate (ECA):DI water = 90:10 wt% is found to give the best result. The silver paste with 40-50 nm Ag:250-300 nm Ag in a 10:90 wt% mixture gives the highest electrical conductance. The metal mesh TCE film obtained with this silver paste in an optimized process exhibits a light transmittance of 90.4% and haze at 1.2%, which is suitable for TSP application.

This study is aimed to separation propylene and propane using membrane process. Membrane-based gas separation enables a chemical process to be low-energy consuming, if high olefin selective membrane is developed. In this study, facilitated transport membrane (FTM) is used for propylene/ propane separation. We prepared FTM module using PVP/AgBF4/TCNQ composite membrane on top of hollow fiber membrane. We developed simulation program predicting the membrane separation properties under operation conditions. Separation properties of FTM module for propylene and propane were obtained from the simulation program based on the pure gas permeation data. Based on the these results, it is predicted that an one-stage membrane process provides 99.5% of propylene at permeate side from a binary gas mixture of 95 vol% C3H6/5 vol% C3H8 supplied as a feed gas.

The purpose of this study was to suggest torso patterns that fit the three main body shapes of elderly obese women. To reduce time, costs, and also the trial and error needed to make patterns, the CLO program for 3D test wear was employed. Three virtual models for aged obese women were use, with the YUKA system used to produce torso patterns. 3D simulation of test wear and corrections was done to design optimal torso patterns. The results were as follows: First, for the three models of obese women’s body shapes as realized by CLO 3D, Type 1 is lower-body obesity shapes, Type 2 is abdominal obesity shapes, and Type 3 is whole-body obesity shapes. Second, to design the study patterns, actual measurement values, back waist length and waist to hip length, were used. The armhole depth (B/4-1.5), front interscye (B/6+2.3), front neck width (B/12-0.5), front neck depth (B/12+0.5), front waist measurement (W/4+ 1.5+D), front hip measurement (H/4+2+0.5), and back hip measurement (H/4+3-0.5) were calculated using formulas. Third, according to the results of test-wearing the study patterns, reduced front neck width and depth improved the neck fit and reduced armhole depth bettered loose or plunging armhole girth and also reduced the sagging of bust c.. Also, tight sidesfrom aprotruded waist and abdomen improved with the increase of surpluses in the back waist and also back and front hip c. The exterior was enhanced by displacement of back and front darts, which distributed surpluses better.

There has been much interest in recycling electronic wastes in order to mitigate environmental problems and to recover the large amount of constituent metals. Silver recovery from electronic waste is extensively studied because of environmental and economic benefits and the use of silver in fabricating nanodevices. Hydrometallurgical processing is often used for silver recovery because it has the advantages of low cost and ease of control. Research on synthesis recovered silver into nanoparticles is needed for application to transistors and solar cells. In this study, silver is selectively recovered from the by-product of electrodes. Silver precursors are prepared using the dissolution characteristics of the leaching solution. In the liquid reduction process, silver nanoparticles are synthesized under various surfactant conditions and then analyzed. The purity of the recovered silver is 99.24%, and the average particle size of the silver nanoparticles is 68 nm.

The catch performance of the silver-white jig for automatic jigging machine, developed to improve the effectiveness of LED fishing lamp in catching squid, was compared to that of the conventional green jig. The vessels used in this investigation were Haesong-ho (A-vessel), a training vessel of Gangwon State University and Haengbok-ho (B-vessel), a commercial fishing boat. In the case of the A-vessel, five to eight automatic jigging machines were used in the fishing operation with a 31.3 kW LED fishing lamp in summer. As for the B-vessel, fourteen automatic jigging machines were used with a 43.2 kW LED fishing lamp in autumn and winter. The results showed that the catch performance of the silver-white jig was similar to that of the green jig in the case of the A-vessel (p>0.05). However, in the case of the B-vessel, the catch performance of the silver-white jig was superior to that of the green jig in both winter (p<0.05) and autumn (P<0.001). Based on the catch performance results regarding the B-vessel in autumn, it is expected that the annual income increase that can be earned by using the silver-white jig will be KRW 26,385,000.

Noncontact direct-printed conductive silver patterns with an enhanced electrical resistivity are fabricated using a silver ink with a mixture of silver nanoparticles and nanoplates. The microstructure and electrical resistivity of the silver pattern are systematically investigated as a function of the mixing ratio of the nanoparticles and nanoplates. The pattern, which is fabricated using a mixture with a mixing ratio of 3(nanoparticles):7(nanoplates) and sintered at 200oC shows a highly dense and well-sintered microstructure and has a resistivity of 7.60 μΩ·cm. This originates a mutual synergistic effect through a combination of the sinterability of the nanoparticles and the packing ability of the nanoplates. This is a conductive material that can be used to fabricate noncontact direct-printed conductive patterns with excellent electrical conductivity for various flexible electronics applications, including solar cells, displays, RFIDs, and sensors.
