In this study, composite pouch films incorporating ionite were fabricated, and their structural properties as well as temperature variations during charge–discharge cycles were evaluated to examine their applicability as heat-suppression pouch films for secondary batteries. The films were prepared using a film coater (Coretech, CT-AF300), with variations in ionite content and particle size. In addition, the effects of plasma treatment on the surface state of PET films were investigated to enhance coating adhesion, with the aim of determining the optimal fabrication conditions. Furthermore, an infrared thermal imaging camera and a custom-built test device were employed to measure the temperature differences with and without the pouch films during charge– discharge processes, thereby assessing the potential of developing next-generation high-performance pouch films.
Transparent and conducting SnO2 and SnO2/Ag/SnO2 (SAS) films were deposited on glass substrates by magnetron sputtering at room temperature. The effect of the SnO2 target power and Ag interlayer on the visible transmittance and electrical properties of the film was considered. Although all the SnO2 films had an amorphous structure under all sputtering power conditions, SnO2 films deposited at a target power of 60 W showed a lower resistivity of 2.25 Ω cm and a lower surface roughness of 1.4 nm. The average visible transmittance also varied with target power conditions. The average visible transmittance increased from 73.7 % (40 W) to 76.3 % (60 W) and then decreased to 73.2 % (80 W). When all films were compared, it was found that the SnO2 films deposited at 60 W had a higher figure of merit of 2.98 × 10-7 Ω-1. In addition, the SnO2 films with a Ag 10 nm interlayer showed a lower resistivity of 4.28 × 10-5 Ω cm and a visible transmittance of 70.58 %. The Ag interlayer in the SnO2 films increased the figure of merit to 7.88 × 10-3 without substrate heating or post-deposition annealing. The observed results confirm that the optical and electrical properties of SnO2 films can be enhanced by optimizing the sputtering target power condition and the thickness of the Ag interlayer, respectively.
TiO2/Ag/TiO2 (TAT) tri-layer films were deposited using radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering and direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering on a glass substrate, and then rapid thermal annealed at 150 and 300 °C for 10 minutes. The influence of annealing temperature on the optical and electrical properties of the films was investigated. As annealing temperature was rapidly increased from room temperature to 300 °C, the grain size of the TiO2 (004), (204) and Ag (200) increased from 36.8, 14.3, 22.1 nm to 43.2, 16.6, 23.4 nm, respectively and the electrical resistivity decreased from 4.64 × 10-5 Ω cm to 2.79 × 10-5 Ω cm. Also, the average visible transmittance increased from 82.7 % to 84.9 %. In addition, the electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness of TAT films was also increased to 31.7 db after annealing at 300 °C. These results demonstrate that post-deposition rapid thermal annealing is an effective method for enhancing the electrical and optical properties of TAT films.
Supercapacitors, renowned for their high power density and rapid charge-discharge rates, are limited by their low energy density. This limitation has prompted the need for advanced electrode materials. The present study investigated reduced graphene oxide (rGO) in two distinct structures, as a film and as an aerogel, for use as supercapacitor electrodes. The rGO film, prepared by vacuum filtration and thermal reduction, exhibited a compact, lamellar structure, while the aerogel, synthesized through hydrothermal treatment, was a highly porous three-dimensional network. Electrochemical analyses demonstrated the aerogel’s superior performance, as shown by a specific capacitance of 121.2 F/g at 5 mV/s, with 94% capacitance retention after 10,000 cycles. These findings emphasize the importance of structural design in optimizing ion accessibility and charge transfer. They also demonstrate the potential of rGO aerogels for increasing the energy storage efficiency of advanced supercapacitor systems.
This study evaluated the quality characteristics of Flammulina velutipesduring storage using modified atmosphere films of different thicknesses (20, 40, and 60 μm). The films included high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and low-density polyethylene (LDPE). F. velutipeswere stored at 1°C for six weeks, and quality was assessed based on weight loss, respiration rate, firmness, color parameters, β-glucan content, total phenolic content (TPC), and antioxidant activities (2,2-diphenyl-1- picrylhydrazyl and 2,2'-azino-bis [3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid] radical scavenging activities). All HDPE and LDPE films were more effective than the conventional film (polypropylene) at maintaining mushroom quality, particularly in the later stages of storage. In particular, LDPE films with thicknesses of 20 and 40 μm showed superior performance at reducing respiration rates and weight loss, while mushrooms packaged with these films retained higher TPC and antioxidant activities. The β-glucan content also remained more stable in mushrooms stored using HDPE and LDPE films. Although we did not evaluate changes in sensory properties or nutritional components, such as vitamins, our results suggest that the type and thickness of packaging films significantly influence the preservation of the quality of F. velutipesduring storage. Additionally, LDPE films with thicknesses of 20 and 40 μm were found to be the most suitable packaging materials for the distribution and storage of F. velutipes. Furthermore, these findings are expected to provide valuable insights into the selection of optimal packaging materials to extend the shelf life and maintain freshness during the postharvest handlingof F. velutipes.
This study examined the physicochemical and mechanical properties of edible composite films made of cellulose nanofiber (CNF) and shellac (Sh). All films were conditioned at 25℃ and 53% relative humidity (RH) for at least 48 h before analyses. Increasing the Sh ratio from 0% to 100% resulted in an increase in film thickness from 57.8 μm to 71.1 μm, while opacity decreased significantly from 22.3 mm⁻¹ to 3.7 mm⁻¹. With the increase in the Sh ratio, the moisture content, water solubility, and swelling of the film increased from 9.7% to 35.1%, 4.9% to 100%, and 3.0% to 10.5%, respectively. The CNF film (0% Sh) exhibited a lower water contact angle than the films with 80% and 100% Sh, but it was more water-resistant. As the Sh ratio increased, the tensile strength, yield stress, Young’s modulus, and work of break of the films decreased significantly from 17.9 MPa to 0.3 MPa, 1.00 MPa to 0.38 MPa, 220.7 MPa to 0.9 MPa, and 0.67 MJ/m3 to 0.13 MJ/m3, respectively. Conversely, the elongation at break increased dramatically from 10% to 253%. This study demonstrated that the thickness, opacity, moisture-related properties, and mechanical properties of CNF-Sh composite films could be tailored by varying the biopolymer ratio.
High-frequency soft magnetic Ni, Fe, and Co-based thin films have been developed, typically as nanocrystals and amorphous alloys. These Ni, Fe, and Co-based thin films exhibit remarkably good frequency dependence up to high frequencies of several tens of MHz. These properties arise from the moderate magnetic anisotropy and fairly high electrical resistivity that result from the microstructural characteristics of the nanocrystalline and amorphous states. In this paper, Al-Co/AlN-Co and Al-N/AlN-Co multilayer films were deposited using two-facing-target type sputtering (TFTS). Their microstructures, magnetic and electrical properties were studied with the expectation that inserting Al-Co or Al-N as an interlayer could effectively reduce the coercive force and produce films with relatively high resistivity. A new approach is presented for the fabrication of Al-Co (Al-N)/AlN-Co multilayer films, prepared with the TFTS system. The deposited films were isothermally annealed at different temperatures and investigated for microstructure, magnetic properties and resistivity. The TFTS method used in this experiment is suitable for fabricating Al-Co(Al-N)/AlN-Co multilayer films with different layer thickness ratio (LTR). The annealing conditions, thickness of the multilayer film, and LTR can control the physical properties as well as the microstructure of the manufactured film. Magnetization and resistance increased and coercivity decreased as LTR decreased. The thin film with LTR = 0.175 exhibited high resistivity values of 2,500 μΩ-cm, magnetization of 360 emu/cm3, and coercivity of 5 Oe. Results suggests that thin films with such good resistivity and magnetization would be useful as high-density recording materials.
Cu-Ti thin films were fabricated using a combinatorial sputtering system to realize highly sensitive surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices. The Cu-Ti sample library was grown with various chemical compositions and electrical resistivity, providing important information for selecting the most suitable materials for SAW devices. Considering that acoustic waves generated from piezoelectric materials are significantly affected by the resistivity and density of interdigital transducer (IDT) electrodes, three types of Cu-Ti thin films with different Cu contents were fabricated. The thickness of the Cu-Ti thin films used in the SAW-IDT electrode was fixed at 150 nm. As the Cu content of the Cu-Ti films was increased from 31.2 to 71.3 at%, the resistivity decreased from 10.5 to 5.8 × 10-5 ohm-cm, and the density increased from 5.5 to 7.3 g/cm3, respectively. A SAW device composed of Cu-Ti IDT electrodes resonated at exactly 143 MHz without frequency shifts, but the full width at half maximum (FWHM) values of the resonant frequency gradually increased as the Cu content increased. This means that although the increase in Cu content in the Cu-Ti thin film helps to improve the electrical properties of the IDT electrode, the increased density of the IDT electrode deteriorates the acoustic performance of SAW devices.
본 논문은 중국의 소수민족인 티베트를 제재로 한 영화를 고찰한 것이다. 그리고 이러한 연구의 목적은 ‘티베트 영화사’ 서술을 위한 초보적인 시도에 그 의미가 있다. 티베트는 중국과 독립문제로 갈등을 빚고 있으며 국제적인 이슈가 되고 있다. 또한 중국의 소수민족 중에서 민족적 정체성이 뚜렷하며 영화 장르에서도 특화된 영역으 로 분류된다. 본고에서는 티베트 제재 영화 중에서 먼저 한족 감독의 작품을 선별하 여 분석하였다. 왜냐하면 신분적으로 그들에게 티베트는 타자가 되기 때문이다. 자연 히 그들의 영화에서 티베트에 대한 관념이 자연스럽게 묻어 날 수밖에 없다. 한족 감독들 중에서 티베트를 제재로 연출한 대표적인 감독과 그들 작품의 주제 유형별로 대표적인 작품들을 대상으로 삼아 그들의 작품에 나타나는 티베트에 대한 사유 의식 과 실제적인 표현 양상을 통해 티베트의 객관적 현실을 직시하고 분석하고자 한다.
이 연구는 카메라의 시선, 즉 시점에 관한 정의와 분석을 통해 다르덴 형제의 작품 <로제타>와 <자전거를 탄 소년>에서 나타나는 객관적인 시 점 샷을 다룬다. 카메라의 시점 샷은 주관적인 시점과 객관적인 시점으 로 구분 지을 수 있다. 주관적인 시점은 관객에게 공감을 불러일으켜 이 야기의 집중도를 높인다. 반면에 객관적인 시점은 관객이 등장인물을 관 망하게 하여 관객의 편안한 시청을 유도할 수 있지만, 극 중 인물에 대 한 감정이입을 끌어내지 못하는 한계가 있다. 그래서 일반적인 극영화가 주관적인 시점 샷을 적극적으로 활용하는 것에 비해 객관적인 시점 샷의 사용 빈도는 상대적으로 낮다. 하지만 다르덴 형제의 극영화에서는 객관 적인 시점 샷을 중심으로 화면이 구성된다. 이런 배경을 토대로 연구를 진행한 결과 연구의 중심에 있는 영화 <로제타>와 <자전거를 탄 소년> 에서 역시 이 다큐멘터리 기법과 객관적인 시점 샷으로 구성된 연출을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 다르덴 형제가 구성한 객관적인 시점 샷은 사 회적 약자, 소외된 계층에 있는 사람들의 현실을 전달하고자 하는 그들 의 의도를 반영하는 데 효율적인 샷이란 사실 역시 확인하게 되었다. 또 한, 다르덴 형제는 객관적인 시점 샷을 통해 관객을 관찰자로 만들어 영 화에서 일어나는 상황을 관망하게 만들고, 그로 인해 극 중 인물의 가혹 한 현실을 관객들에게 전달하고자 한 것이라는 사실 역시 파악되었다.
This study investigated the inactivation effect of intense pulsed light (IPL) on various packaging films. The UV-C transmittance irradiance varied depending on the packaging materials, with the control group having an irradiance of 3.959 W/m2. For the thinnest layer of 30 mm, polypropylene (PP) had an irradiance of 3.258 W/m2, polyethylene (PE) had an irradiance of 3.193 W/ m2, and oriented polypropylene (OPP) had an irradiance of 3.200 W/m2. In contrast, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) exhibited a significantly lower irradiance of only 0.065 W/m2 for its thinnest film thickness of 100 mm. The light transmittance of the packaging materials was similar, with values of 91.3%, 89.7%, and 89.5% for PP, PE, and OPP, respectively. In contrast, PET exhibited a significantly lower light transmittance of 1.8% compared to the other packaging materials. These findings have practical implications for the food packaging industry. According to the packaging film material, the sterilization effects showed that the E. coli sterilization effect of PP was the highest, followed by PE and OPP, which were similarly effective. At the same time, PET exhibited the lowest sterilization effect. For PP film with a thickness of 30 mm, a 6.2 log reduction in the E. coli population was observed after 20 s of IPL treatment. Ultimately, inactivation was achieved after 60 seconds. Both PE and OPP films, which had a thickness of 30 mm, showed a 5.9 log reduction in E. coli after 30 s of IPL treatment, followed by complete inactivation after 60 s. The inactivation rate for PP, PE, and OPP films showed minimal variation regardless of thickness, although it gradually decreased with increasing thickness. For PET, achieving a 1 log reduction in E. coli required 180 s of IPL treatment at 100 mm thickness and 210 s at 120 mm thickness, indicating the influence of film thickness on inactivation rate. Even after 300 s of IPL treatment, the inactivation effect for PET remained around 1.5 log, the lowest among all packaging film materials.
