다중벽 탄소나노튜브(MWCNT)는 전기적, 기계적 성질이 매우 우수한 소재이나, MWCNT를 복합 체로 응용하는 과정에서 MWCNT의 분산이 어려워 복합체의 제조에 제한을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 MWCNT의 표면을 산화시켜 -OH기를 표면에 도입하고, 표면에 음전하를 증가시켜 불소 고분자(PTFE) 도막에서 MWCNT의 분산을 증대시켰다. 그리고, MWCNT의 효과적인 분산으로 PTFE 복합체 도막의 경도와 소수성이 증가되고, 전기 정도성을 부여하여 표면의 기능성이 증대됨을 보여주었다.

서울을 포함한 수도권지역의 지표면 특성분석을 위하여 Landsat 위성자료(Landsat 5, Landsat 7, Landsat 8)를 이용하여 다양한 지표 특성지수와 지표면 온도를 계산하였다. 연구에 사용된 Landsat 자료는 가을철 자료로써 1985년 10월 21일의 Landsat 5, 2003년 9월 29일의 Landsat 7 그리고 2013년 9월 1일의 Landsat 8 자료를 이용하였다. 그리고 서울과 주변지역에 대하여 토양조절 식생지수, 수정 정규 습윤지수, 정규 습윤지수, 태슬 모자형 밝기, 태슬 모자형 초록, 태슬 모자형 습윤, 정규 식생지수, 정규 건설지수와 같은 지표 특성지수와 지표면 온도를 산출하였다. 대부분의 지표 특성지수들은 도시, 시골, 산, 건물, 강 그리고 도로 등에서 잘 구별되었다. 특히, 도시화의 특징은 서울 주변의 신도시(예, 일산)에서 잘 나타났다. 정규 식생지수와 정규 건물지수 그리고 지표면 온도에 따르면 도시의 확장은 서울의 주변지역에서 뚜렷이 보였다. 지표면 온도와 지표고도는 식생 또는 건설물의 구조와 분포를 나타내는 정규 식생지수 그리고 정규 건물지수와 강한 상관성이 나타났다. 정규 식생지수는 지표면온도와 양의 상관성을 보였고 지표고도와 음의 상관성을 가지는 반면, 정규 식생지수는 지표면온도와 지표고도에 대하여 각각 반대의 특성을 나타내었다. 또한, Landsat의 정규 식생지수와 정규 건물지수는 수도권지역에서 밀접한 관계를 보였다.

This study was carried out to investigate the emulsifying properties of surface-active substances from defatted rapeseed cake by supercritical CO₂extraction. Based on the interfacial tension data, a supercritical fluid extract (SFE) with the lowest value of 14.16 mN/m was chosen for evaluation which was obtained from No. 2 extraction condition (150 bar, 65℃, 250 g). For emulsions with SFE, some physicochemical properties (i.e., fat globule size, creaming stability, zeta potential etc) were investigated according to changes in SFE concentration, pH, and NaCl addition in an emulsion. It was found that fat globule size was decreased with increasing SFE concentration in emulsion, with showing a critical value at 0.5 wt%, thereby resulting in less susceptibility to creaming behavior. The SFE emulsion also showed instability at acidic conditions (pH<7.0) as well as by NaCl addition. This was coincided with zeta potential data of emulsion. In addition, SSL (sodium stearoyl lactylate) found to be suitable as a co-surfactant, as it helped considerably in decreasing fat globule size in emulsions and its optimum concentration to be over 0.03 wt%, based on 0.1 wt% SFE in emulsion.

The relationship the between electrical properties and surface roughness (Ra) of a wet-etched silicon wafer were studied. Ra was measured by an alpha-step process and atomic force microscopy (AFM) while varying the measuring range 10×10, 40×40, and 1000×1000μm. The resistivity was measured by assessing the surface resistance using a four-point probe method. The relationship between the resistivity and Ra was explained in terms of the surface roughness. The minimum error value between the experimental and theoretical resistivities was 4.23% when the Ra was in a range of 10×10μm according to AFM measurement. The maximum error value was 14.09% when the Ra was in a range of 40×40μm according to AFM measurement. Thus, the resistivity could be estimated when the Ra was in a narrow range.

Superhydrophobic SiO2 layers with a micro-nano hierarchical surface structure were prepared. SiO2 layers depositedvia an electrospray method combined with a sol-gel chemical route were rough on the microscale. Au particles were decoratedon the surface of the microscale-rough SiO2 layers by use of the photo-reduction process with different intensities (0.11-1.9 mW/cm2) and illumination times (60-240 sec) of ultraviolet light. With the aid of nanoscale Au nanoparticles, this consequentlyresulted in a micro-nano hierarchical surface structure. Subsequent fluorination treatment with a solution containingtrichloro(1H,2H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyl)silane fluorinated the hierarchical SiO2 layers. The change in surface roughness factorwas in good agreement with that observed for the water contact angle, where the surface roughness factor developed as ameasure needed to evaluate the degree of surface roughness. The resulting SiO2 layers revealed excellent repellency towardvarious liquid droplets with different surface tensions ranging from 46 to 72.3mN/m. Especially, the micro-nano hierarchicalsurface created at an illumination intensity of 0.11mW/cm2 and illumination time of 60 sec showed the largest water contactangle of 170o. Based on the Cassie-Baxter and Young-Dupre equations, the surface fraction and work of adhesion for the micro-nano hierarchical SiO2 layers were evaluated. The work of adhesion was estimated to be less than 3×10−3N/m for all the liquiddroplets. This exceptionally small work of adhesion is likely to be responsible for the strong repellency of the liquids to themicro-nano hierarchical SiO2 layers.

The trends of sea surface temperature (SST) variations derived from NOAA satellite data in the Northeast Asian Waters (NAW) were quantified using NOAA satellite data for 19 years (1990~2008). The annual mean SSTs were generally increased in the NAW. However, the SST was decreased in some areas of the East Sea in the NAW. The areas in the East Sea were coincided with the same places which SST was decreased in winter season. The annual amplitudes of SST were increased in the northern parts of the East China Sea, the Korean Straits and the southwestern parts of the East Sea. However, the annual amplitudes of SST were decreased in the other waters. The SST was increased in the southwestern parts of the Yellow Sea in winter but it was decreased in summer season for 19 years (1990~2008). The SST variations in the northwestern parts of the East Sea (NWES) in summer and winter seasons were increased at the same period of time for 19 years (1990~2008). The rates of SST rise in the NWES in winter were higher than those of summer season. Therefore, the annual amplitude in the NWES was decreased.

A novel PM (powder metallurgy) steel for automotive power-train gear components was developed to reduce manufacturing cost, while meeting application requirements. The high-density PM steel was manufactured by mixing using special Cr-Mo atomized iron powders, high-pressure compaction, and sintering. Tensile strength, charpy impact, bending fatigue, and contact fatigue tests for the PM steel were carried out and compared to conventional forged steel. Pinion gears for auto-transmission were also manufactured by helical pressing, sintering, and surface densification process. In order to evaluate the durability of the PM parts, auto-transmission durability tests were performed using dynamometer tests. Results showed that the PM steel fulfilled the requirements for pinion gears indicating suitable tensile, bending fatigue, contact fatigue strengths and improved gear tooth profile. The PM gears also showed good performance during the transmission durability tests. As a result, the PM gears showed significant potential to replace the conventional forged steel gears manufactured by tooth machining (hobbing, shaving, and grinding) processes.

To reduce manufacturing costs of crystalline silicon solar cells, silicon wafers have become thinner. In relation to this, the properties of the aluminium-back surface field (Al-BSF) are considered an important factor in solar cell performance. Generally, screen-printing and a rapid thermal process (RTP) are utilized together to form the Al-BSF. This study evaluates Al-BSF formation on a (111) textured back surface compared with a (100) flat back surface with variation of ramp up rates from 18 to 89˚C/s for the RTP annealing conditions. To make different back surface morphologies, one side texturing using a silicon nitride film and double side texturing were carried out. After aluminium screen-printing, Al-BSF formed according to the RTP annealing conditions. A metal etching process in hydrochloric acid solution was carried out to assess the quality of Al-BSF. Saturation currents were calculated by using quasi-steady-state photoconductance. The surface morphologies observed by scanning electron microscopy and a non-contacting optical profiler. Also, sheet resistances and bulk carrier concentration were measured by a 4-point probe and hall measurement system. From the results, a faster ramp up during Al-BSF formation yielded better quality than a slower ramp up process due to temperature uniformity of silicon and the aluminium surface. Also, in the Al-BSF formation process, the (111) textured back surface is significantly affected by the ramp up rates compared with the (100) flat back surface.

Changes in surface morphology and roughness of dc sputtered ZnO:Al/Ag back reflectors by varying the deposition temperature and their influence on the performance of flexible silicon thin film solar cells were systematically investigated. By increasing the deposition temperature from 25˚C to 500˚C, the grain size of Ag thin films increased from 100 nm to 1000 nm and the grain size distribution became irregular, which resulted in an increment of surface roughness from 6.6 nm to 46.6 nm. Even after the 100 nm thick ZnO:Al film deposition, the surface morphology and roughness of the ZnO:Al/Ag double structured back reflectors were the same as those of the Ag layers, meaning that the ZnO:Al films were deposited conformally on the Ag films without unnecessary changes in the surfacefeatures. The diffused reflectance of the back reflectors improved significantly with the increasing grain size and surface roughness of the Ag films, and in particular, an enhanced diffused reflectance in the long wavelength over 800 nm was observed in the Ag back reflectors deposited at 500˚C, which had an irregular grain size distribution of 200-1000 nm and large surface roughness. The improved light scattering properties on the rough ZnO:Al/Ag back reflector surfaces led to an increase of light trapping in the solar cells, and this resulted in a noticeable improvement in the Jsc values from 9.94 mA/cm2 for the flat Ag back reflector at 25˚C to 13.36 mA/cm2 for the rough one at 500˚C. A conversion efficiency of 7.60% (Voc = 0.93, Jsc = 13.36 mA/cm2, FF = 61%) was achieved in the flexible silicon thin film solar cells at this moment.

The effects of the field emission property in relation to the surface morphology and adhesion force were investigated. The single-wall-nanotube-based cathode was obtained by use of an in-situ arc discharge synthesis method, a screen-printing method and a spray method. The morphologies of the formed emitter layers were very different. The emission stability and uniformity were dramatically improved by employing an in-situ arc discharge synthesis method. In this study, it was confirmed that the current stability and uniformity of the field emission of the cathode depend on the surface morphology and adhesion force of the emitters. The current stability of the field emission device was also studied through an electrical aging process by varying the current and electric field.

Evaluation of the solid surface properties by an analysis of the liquid penetration rate into powderbeds is very important in applications of powder products. The penetration rate is related the surface propertyin powder beds. In order to analyze the surface property of powders, the contact angle values of several powderswere obtained using the Washbun equation and the Wicking method. The surface free energy value γS wasdivided into a polar component γSp and a dispersion component γSd. Inorganic powders such as calcite were usedas test samples. The effects of the particle size and the type of experimental liquid on the penetration rate weremeasured. It was confirmed that the surface free energy of the grinding sample is smaller than that of theclassification sample.

Properties of carbon blacks and carbon black/SBR rubber composites filled by surface modified carbon blacks were examined. Although the specific surface area of carbon blacks increased after the surface modifications with heat, acid, and base, there were no obvious changes in resistivity. The composites filled by heat treated carbon blacks showed a higher tensile strength and elongation than those filled by raw blacks. The acid and base treated carbon blacks filled composites also showed higher tensile strength but similar elongation values with those filled by raw blacks. With increasing loading ratio, both tensile strength and elongation increased, and appeared a maximum value at 30-40 phr. Modulus at 300% strain remained increasing with further loading of carbon blacks. At the same loading, the heat treated black filled composites showed similar modulus values with composites filled by raw blacks but for base and acid treated black filled composites much higher values were obtained. After the surface modification, the functional groups which played an important role in reinforcement action were changed.

The effects of particle size on the surface properties of hydro-thermally synthesized barium titanate powders were investigated by means of particle size analysis, specific surface area, SEM, zeta potential and XPS. Particle sizes were measured by laser light scattering and are in the range of 150 to 1100nm. Zeta potential increased with increasing particle size and it was large minus value in the range of particle size from 500 to 900nm, which seems to be related with the dissolution of ion in these particle sizes from the analysis of surface properties by XPS.
