Effect of humidity on the photocatalytic degradation of trichloroethylene in gas Phase over TiO2 thin films treated by different conditions

The effect of humidity on the photocatalytic degradation reaction of trichloroethylene (TCE) in gas phase was investigated by using pretreated TiO₂ sol-gel films. It was observed that the photocatalytic activity of the TiO₂ films depended more greatly on the pretreatment conditions, for example, UV pre-illumination, than on the moisture content. When the relative humidity was over 50%, the reaction rates decreased regardless of treatment conditions of the photocatalyst. The photocatalytic decomposition rate of TCE increased with the increase of light intensity. However, the influence of humidity on the reaction rate was less significant under the increased light intensity. The intermediates and byproducts of the reaction were not changed in different humidity conditions.

Experimental rapid surface heating by induction for micro‐injection molding of light‐guided plates

This work experimentally investigates the use of induction‐heating to heat mold surfaces rapidly, and thus enhance the replication effect of the microstructure of light‐guided plates (LGP) in the injection molding process. This investigation employs a 2‐inch LGP injection mold as the experimental carrier, and compares the replication effect on the microstructure of induction heating with that of conventional oil‐heating. Temperature increases on the mold plate are examined using a thermal video system. The experimental results show that (1) the flat induction coil design promotes rapid surface heating. (2) Induction‐heating the mold surface to 110°C improves the replication rate of the height of the micro‐structure by up to 95%. (3) The LGP produced by induction heating has no significant residual stress. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2009     

Transparent ultrananocrystalline diamond films on quartz substrate

Highly transparent ultrananocrystalline diamond (UNCD) films were deposited on quartz substrates using microwave plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (MPECVD) method. Low temperature growth of high quality transparent UNCD films was achieved by without heating the substrates prior to the deposition. Additionally, a new method to grow NCD and microcrystalline diamond (MCD) films on quartz substrates has been proposed. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and Raman spectroscopy were used to analyze the surface and structural properties of the films. The surface morphology of UNCD film shows very smooth surface characteristics. The transparent property studies of UNCD film on quartz substrate showed 90% transmittance in the near IR region. The transparent and dielectric properties of UNCD, NCD, and MCD films on quartz substrates were compared and reported.

Low temperature growth of carbon nanotubes using Ni nanopowder mixed with Ag-paste as catalyst

Growth of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) at low temperature is a critical issue in the development of CNTs for diversified applications. The screen printing method, which used silver paste mixed with CNTs and glass powder as the raw material, was usually adopted for fabricating cathode of field emission device. In this work, Ni nanopowder mixed with commercial Ag-paste was prepared and screen-printed on the glass substrate, and then subjected to sintering in air at 500 °C. Growth of CNTs was performed in a self-designed cold-walled chemical vapour deposition (CVD) chamber at 500 °C under a pressure between 1 and 10 Torr. Field emission property was tested and the turn-on field of 2.4 V/μm was obtained for the specimen containing 2.7 wt.% Ni nanopowder. CNT density can be controlled by adjusting the concentration of Ni nanopowder in silver paste. This method proposed a simple route for synthesizing CNTs at relatively low temperature in a conventional CVD system, which is capable of fabricating large area cathode with proper CNT density.

Surface wettability and spectroscopic studies on miscibility and ion adsorption of binary biomimetic self-assembled monolayers on gold surfaces

Binary self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) have been much studied due to their high applicable potential as a model of biomimetic surfaces. However, the research about miscibility of binary SAMs has not much been investigated yet. In this work, we focused on analyzing the binary SAMs composed of mercaptohexadecanoic acid (MHA)-hexadecanthiol (HDT) on gold surfaces with Cassie equation, Israelachvili equation, and FTIR spectroscopy to confirm that the binary SAMs are well mixed. As a result, MHA-HDT binary SAMs are considered miscible because the result obtained from FTIR spectra is in good agreement with that calculated by Israelachvili equation for the case that two different molecules are well mixed on the surface. Also, the adsorption of cadmium ions on binary SAMs was confirmed by the appearance of carboxylate stretching bands. This article is dedicated to Professor Chang Kyun Choi for celebrating his retirement from the School of Chemical and Biological Engineering, Seoul National University.
