Zirconium boride is an artificial or which is rarely found in the nature. ZrB2 is popular in the hard material industry because it has a high melting point, excellent mechanical properties and chemical stability. There are two known methods to synthesize ZrB2. The first involves direct reaction between Zr and B, and the second is by reduction of the metal halogen. However, these two methods are known to be unsuitable for mass production. SHS(Self-propagating High-temperature Synthesis) is an efficient and economic method for synthesizing hard materials because it uses exothermic reactions. In this study, ZrB2 was successfully synthesized by subjecting ZrO2, Mg and B2O3 to SHS. Because of the high combustion temperature and rapid combustion, in conjunction with the stoichiometric ratio of ZrO2, Mg and B2O3; single phase ZrB2 was not synthesized. In order to solve the temperature problem, Mg and NaCl additives were investigated as diluents. From the experiments it was found that both diluents effectively stabilized the reaction and combustion regime. The final product, made under optimum conditions, was single-phase ZrB2 of 0.1-0.9μm particle size.

Due to their unique properties, tungsten borides are good candidates for the industrial applications where certain features such as high hardness, chemical inertness, resistance to high temperatures, thermal shock and corrosion. In this study, conditions were investigated for producing tungsten boride powder from tungsten oxide(WO3) by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) followed by HCl leaching techniques. In the first stage of the study, the exothermicity of the WO3-Mg reaction was investigated by computer simulation. Based on the simulation experimental study was conducted and the SHS products consisting of borides and other compounds were obtained starting with different initial molar ratios of WO3, Mg and B2O3. It was found that WO3, Mg and B2O3 reaction system produced high combustion temperature and radical reaction so that diffusion between W and B was not properly occurred. Addition of NaCl and replacement of B2O3 with B successfully solved the diffusion problem. From the optimum condition tungsten boride(W2B and WB) powders which has 0.1~0.9 um particle size were synthesized.

In this research, a precipitation method was used to synthesize β-Ga2O3 powders with various particle morphologies and sizes under varying precipitation conditions, such as gallium nitrate concentration, pH, and aging temperature, using ammonium hydroxide and ammonium carbonate as precipitants. The obtained powders were characterized in detail by XRD, SEM, FT-IR, and TG-DSC. From the TG-DSC result, GaOOH phase was transformed to β-Ga2O3 at around 742˚C, and weight loss percent was about 14 % when NH4OH was used as a precipitant. Also, β-Ga2O3 formed at 749˚C and weight loss percent was about 15 % when (NH)2CO3 was used as a precipitant. XRD results showed that the obtained Ga2O3 had pure monoclinic phase in both cases. When (NH)2CO3 was used as a precipitant, the particle shape changed and became irregular. The range of particle size was about 500nm-4μm based on various concentrations of gallium nitrate solution with NH4OH. The particle size was increased from 1-2μm to 3-4μm and particle shape was changed from spherical to bar type by increasing aging temperature over 80˚C.

Pt has been widely used as catalyst for fuel cell and exhausted gas clean systems due to its high catalytic activity.Recently, there have been researches on fabricating composite materials of Pt as a method of reducing the amount of Pt due toits high price. One of the approaches for saving Pt used as catalyst is a core shell structure consisting of Pt layer on the core ofthe non-noble metal. In this study, the synthesis of Pt shell was conducted on the surface of TiO2 particle, a non-noble material,by applying ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. Anatase TiO2 particles with the average size of 20~30 nm were immersed in the eth-anol dissolved with Pt precursor of H2PtCl6·6H2O and exposed to UV irradiation with the wavelength of 365 nm. It was con-firmed that Pt nano-particles were formed on the surface of TiO2 particles by photochemical reduction of Pt ion from the solution.The morphology of the synthesized Pt@TiO2 nano-composite was examined by TEM (Transmission Electron Microscopy).

It is same such as the provision of shear buckling strength of steel composite box girder web panel and plate girder web panel in Korea Highway Bridge Design Standards(2012). But the web panel of steel composite box girder is different from the web of plate girder in that the upper slab and lower flange are connected to the web. So a different shear behavior of the girders is expected. In this study, To calculate a reasonable elastic shear buckling strength of steel composite box girder web panel, ABAQUS program was used. The results from F.E.A and previous studies are compared.

건설현장에서 조적, 미장, 방수, 타일 등 습식공사는 대부분의 작업들이 인력에 의해 공사가 이루어지고 있다. 공사를 위해 다뤄지는 자재들도 인력에 의해 운반 및 시공되 는 경우가 많아 작업자들은 여러 가지 안전사고의 위험에 노출된다. 안전한 작업환경 을 만들기 위해서는 작업공정을 단순화 하고 사용하는 자재와 장비도 경량화하여야 한다. 특히 벽돌과 콘크리트 블록 쌓기와 같은 조적공사시 사용하는 철근콘크리트 인 방보는 중량이 무겁고, 현장에서 제작시 시간도 많이 소요된다. 따라서 이번 연구를 통하여 무거운 콘크리트 인방보 대신 벽돌을 압축재로 사용할 수 있는 합성구조 인방 보 형상을 연구함으로써 가볍고 경제적인 강재인방보 구조형상을 제시하고자 한다.

A novel fullerene derivative with photoresponsive azobenzene group was designed and synthesized, and its photoresponsive properties were reported. Starting from 4-nitrophenol, compound 1, which is containing fullerene moiety connected to azobenzene group through covalent linkage was synthesized by 5 steps. All the intermediates and the final compound were characterized by ¹H, 13C-NMR, FAB-Mass or elemental analysis. Compound 1 exhibited the expected photoresponsive behavior. Chloroform solution(10-5M) of it served to maximize the absorption at 351 nm corresponding to the trans-azobenzene chromophore. Irradiation of this solution with 365 nm light resulted in photoisomerization to cis-azobenzene, as evidenced by decrease in the absorbance at 351 nm and an increase in absorbance at 450nm. A hotostationary state was reached within about 150 s. Thermal reversion to the original spectrum was observed over the course of about 6 h at room temperature in the dark. However, exposure to bright sun light for about 5 s also effect almost complete reversion to the trans-isomer. This indicates that there is no strong steric influence on the trans-cis reversible isomerization of compound 1.

This study describes the development of innovative connections between steel beams and concrete-filled tube columns that utilize a combination of low-carbon steel and super-elastic shape memory alloy components. The intent is to combine the recentering behavior provided by the shape memory alloys to reduce building damage and residual drift after a major earthquake with the excellent energy dissipation of the low-carbon steel. The analysis and design of structures requires that simple yet accurate models for the connection behavior be developed. The development of a simplified 2D spring connection model for cyclic loads from advanced 3D FE monotonic studies is described. The implementation of those models into non-linear frame analyses indicates hat the recentering systems will provide substantial benefits for smaller earthquakes and superior performance to all-welded moment frames for large earthquakes.

Gemini type of cationic surfactant, namely α,ω-alkane-bis(N-lauroyloxyethyl -N,N-dimethyl)-diammonium bromide was synthesized and confirmed by FT-IR and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Their inhibition effect on corrosion of mild steel in 1 M HCl solution was tested by weight loss method. Surface tensions were measured by surface tensiometer Sigma 70. Their c.m.c. values evaluated by surface tension method was 4.01×10-5∼ 4.99×10-5 mol/L. The Krafft point of the these surfactants were < 0 ℃. The emulsifying properties of synthesized cationic gemini surfactants and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), tetradecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (TTAB) was investigated. Of these, α,ω-alkane-bis(N-lauroyloxyethyl-N,N-dimethyl)- diammonium bromide has been confirmed as a good emulsifier. The inhibition efficiency increases by increasing cationic gemini surfactant concentration. As a result, these surfactants are expected to be applied as corrosion inhibitors.

This paper describes the surface modification effect of a Ti substrate for improved dispersibility of the cat-alytic metal. Etching of a pure titanium substrate was conducted in 50% H₂SO₄, 50˚C for 1h-12h to observe the sur-face roughness as a function of the etching time. At 1h, the grain boundaries were obvious and the crystal grains weredistinguishable. The grain surface showed micro-porosities owing to the formation of micro-pits less than 1 µm in diam-eter. The depths of the grain boundary and micro-pits appear to increase with etching time. After synthesizing the cat-alytic metal and growing the carbon nano tube (CNT) on Ti substrate with varying surface roughness, the distributiontrends of the catalytic metal and grown CNT on Ti substrate are discussed from a micro-structural perspective.

지환족 다이안하이드라이드인 5-(2,5-dioxotetrahydrofuryl)-3-methyl-3-cyclohexene-1,2-dicarboxylic anhydride (DOCDA)와 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether (ODA)에서 합성된 폴리이미드는 유기용매에 잘 용해되는 폴리이미드로 알려져 있다.이러한 DOCDA-ODA 폴리이미드의 기체 투과특성을 평가하고 투과선택도를 개선시키기 위해서 DOCDA-ODA 반응물에 세가지 dianhydride 단량체((4,4'-(hexafluoroisoproplidene)diphthalic anhydride (6FDA), 4,4'-biphthalic anhydride (BPDA), 3,3’,4,4’-benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA))를 각각 20 mol% 첨가하여 순수중합체 및 공중합체를 합성하였다. 폴리이미드 합성이 성공적으로 이루어졌음을 FT-IR을 통해 확인하였고, 그들의 열적특성은 DSC를 통해 알아보았다. 제조된폴리이미드들의 CO2/CH4에 대한 기체투과도와 선택도는 time-lag법을 이용하여 측정하였다. 그 결과 순수고분자인 DOCDA-ODA의 경우 CO2 투과도는 1.71 barrer, CO2/CH4 선택도는 74.35의 우수한 투과특성을 보였다. 세 가지 공중합체의 경우 DOCDA-ODA에 비해 CO2 투과도는 높게 나타난 반면에 CO2/CH4 선택도는 감소하였다. 특히, 6FDA를 첨가한 경우 CO2/ CH4 선택도는 DOCDA-ODA보다 다소 낮은 결과를 나타내었지만 CO2 투과도가 크게 증가하였음을 확인할 수 있었다.

The Mg-enriched magnesium aluminum silicate (MAS) glass is known for its higher mechanical strength and chemical resistance. Among such glasses, cordierite (Mg2Al4Si5O18) is well known to have a low thermal expansion and low melting point. Polycrystalline engineering ceramics such as alumina can be strengthened by a surface modification with low thermal expansion materials. The present study involves the synthesis of cordierite by a sol-gel process and investigates the effect of glass penetration on the surface of alumina. The cordierite powders were prepared from Al(OC3H7)3, Mg(OC2H5)2 and tetraethyl orthosilicate by hydrolysis and condensation reaction. The cordierite powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD, Rigaku), scanning electron microscope (SEM, JEOL: JSM-5610), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS, JEOL: JSM-5610), and universal testing machine (UTM, INSTRON). The X-ray diffraction patterns showed that the synthesized particles were μ-cordierite calcined at 1100˚C for 1 h. The shape of synthesized cordierite was changed from μ-cordierite to α-cordierite with increasing calcination temperature. Synthesized cordierite was used for surface modification of alumina. Cordierite powders penetrated deeply into the alumina sample along grain boundaries with increasing temperature. The results of surface modification tests showed that the strength of the prepared alumina sample increased after surface modification. The strength of a surface modified with synthesized cordierite increased the most, to about 134.6MPa.
