후쿠시마 원자력 발전소 사고 이후 3.3 × 1016 Bq의 세슘(Cs)이 환경에 노출되면서, 수원으로부터 방사성 세슘 (Cs)을 제거하는 것에 대한 관심이 증대되었다. 지속 가능한 개발과 환경 안전 측면에서 오염된 환경을 복원하는 것은 매우 중요한 이슈이다. 유해 오염물질을 효과적으로 제거하기 위해 분리막 기반의 분리/정제 기술은 매우 각광받는 기술 중 하나 이다. 특히 막 흡착(membrane adsorber) 기술은 흡착과 막 분리를 결합할 수 있는 기술로 수용액에서 오염물질을 제거하는 데 매우 유용한 기술이다. 특히 전기방사 분리막은 높은 기공률, 다양한 고분자 활용가능 그리고 다양한 응용 분야 등의 특징 으로 지난 수십 년 동안 많은 연구가 수행되어 왔다. 본 리뷰 논문은 오염된 물에서 세슘을 제거하기 위한 프러시안 블루 (Prussian blue)가 포함된 전기방사 기반 막 흡착 소재 제조에 대한 다양한 기술을 리뷰하였다.

Inorganic-organic composites find extensive application in various fields, including electronic devices and light-emitting diodes. Notably, encapsulation technologies are employed to shield electronic devices (such as printed circuit boards and batteries) from stress and moisture exposure while maintaining electrical insulation. Polymer composites can be used as encapsulation materials because of their controllable mechanical and electrical properties. In this study, we propose a polymer composite that provides good electrical insulation and enhanced mechanical properties. This is achieved by using aluminum borate nanowhiskers (ABOw), which are fabricated using a facile synthesis method. The ABOw fillers are created via a hydrothermal method using aluminum chloride and boric acid. We confirm that the synthesis occurs in various morphologies based on the molar ratio. Specifically, nanowhiskers are synthesized at a molar ratio of 1:3 and used as fillers in the composite. The fabricated ABOw/epoxy composites exhibit a 48.5% enhancement in mechanical properties, similar to those of pure epoxy, while maintaining good electrical insulation.

This study aims to to identify specific terms used in the documents of public organizations in order to assess the need to replace them for general comprehension by the public and to gain an understanding of how public organization officials and the public (those who visit the organizations) perceive those words. With their cooperation, the terms (used in press releases), guidance practices, notices, and website posting of Siheung Urban Corporation were collected, and 64 terms were selected through word segmentation of 300,000 words and morphological analysis. Next, a survey was conducted to determine the need for improvement of specific terms and the appropriateness of the alternative terms. The survey results showed an average v alue o f 3.04 (out of 4) f or t he n eed to r efinement of terms. The alternative terms received an average appropriateness value of 3.21 (out of 4). As a result of examining terms that require replacement by vocabulary type, it was found that E nglish a crony ms s uch as VOC, CS, AED, B L scored an a verage o f 3.23 points, indicating that replacement was most necessary. This survey of public organization officials and the public suggests that acronyms urgently need to be replaced in public documents.
