The photocatalysts of Fe-ACF/TiO2 compositeswere prepared by the sol-gel method and characterizedby BET, XRD, SEM, and EDX. It showed that the BET surface area was related to adsorption capacity foreach composite. The SEM results showed that ferric compound and titanium dioxide were distributed on thesurfaces of ACF. The XRD results showed that Fe-ACF/TiO2 composite only contained an anatase structurewith a Fe mediated compound. EDX results showed the presence of C, O, and Ti with Fe peaks in Fe-ACF/TiO2 composites. From the photocataytic degradation effect, TiO2 on activated carbon fiber surface modifiedwith Fe (Fe-ACF/TiO2) could work in the photo-Fenton process. It was revealed that the photo-Fenton reactiongives considerable photocatalytic ability for the decomposition of methylene blue (MB) compared to non-treatedACF/TiO2, and the photo-Fenton reaction was improved by the addition of H2O2. It was proved that thedecomposition of MB under UV (365nm) irradiation in the presence of H2O2 predominantly accelerated theoxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+ and produced a high concentration of OH. radicals.

A taxonomic review of the genus Lagria Fabricius is presented. Two species are identified: Lagria nigricollis Hope and a new record, Lagria rufipennis Marseul. A key, description, habitus photographs of adults, and illustrations of diagnostic characteristics are provided.

This study was conducted to develop a model for describing the effect of storage temperature (4, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35℃) on the growth of Escherichia coli O157 : H7 in ready-to-eat (RTE) lettuce treated with or without (control) alkaline electrolyzed water (AIEW). The growth curves were well fitted with the Gompertz equation, which was used to determine the specific growth rate (SGR) and lag time (LT) of E. coli O157 : H7 (R2 = 0.994). Results showed that the obtained SGR and LT were dependent on the storage temperature. The growth rate increased with increasing temperature from 4 to 35℃. The square root models were used to evaluate the effect of storage temperature on the growth of E. coli O157 : H7 in lettuce samples treated without or with AIEW. The coefficient of determination (R2), adjusted determination coefficient (R2 Adj), and mean square error (MSE) were employed to validate the established models. It showed that R2 and R2 Adj were close to 1 (> 0.93), and MSE calculated from models of untreated and treated lettuce were 0.031 and 0.025, respectively. The results demonstrated that the overall predictions of the growth of E. coli O157 : H7 agreed with the observed data.

원자전달 라디칼 중합을 이용하여 poly(hydroxyl ethyl acrylate)-b-polystyrene-b-poIy(hydroxyl ethyl acrylate) (PHEA-b-PS-b-PHEA) 트리블록 공중합체를 합성하였다. 이렇게 합성된 PHEA-b-PS-b-PHEA블록 공중합체의 -OH 그룹과 이미다졸 디카르복실릭산(IDA)의 -COOH 그룹과의 에스테르 반응에 의하여 가교된 전해질막을 제조하였다. 인산(H3PO4)을 도핑하여 이미다졸-인산 착체를 형성한 결과, 인산 함량이 증가함에 따라 고분자 전해질막의 수소 이온 전도도가 증가하였다. 특히 [HEA]:[IDA]:[H3PO4]=3:4:4의 조성을 갖는 PHEA-b-PS-b-PHEA/IDA/H3PO4 고분자 전해질막은 100℃의 비가습 조건에서 최대 0.01 S/cm의 수소이온 전도도를 나타내었다. 열분석 결과(TGA) 전해질막은 350℃의 고온까지 열적으로 안정함을 확인하여 연료전지에 적용이 가능함을 보여주었다.

Thermal emissivity of commercial nuclear graphites (IG-110, PCEA, IG-430 and NBG-18) following changes in oxidation degrees were examined. Specimens were oxidized to 0%, 5%, and 10% in air flow of 5l/min at 600℃ using a furnace, and the thermal emissivities were measured using an infrared spectrum analyzer. The measuring temperatures for the thermal emissivity were 100℃, 200℃, 300℃, 400℃ 500℃. Also density and porosity of the specimens were observed to compare with thermal emissivity. Results showed that emissivity increased with oxidation, and the 10% oxidized NBG-18 showed the highest emissivity (0.890) which value is larger for 24% than the value of as-received specimen. Investigation of factors affecting the emissivity revealed that increases in the surface roughness and porosity due to oxidation were responsible for the increase in emissivity after oxidation.
