Cryogenic propellants are used to produce thrust in numbers of liquid rocket engines. The combustion chamber of the liquid rocket engines are at supercritical environment to the cryogenic propellants. So the phase of cryogenic propellants are changed from subcritical phase to supercritical phase while the propellants are injected to the combustion chamber. So it is necessary to study about the supercritical jet spray, but the study about the supercritical jet spray are still insufficient. For subcritical and super/near-critical jet tests, experimental system with zero-recess shear coaxial injector was constructed. LN2 and argon were selected for stimulants, shadowgraph method was used for jet visualization and the dark core length was used to discuss the experiment result. The dark core length was measured from post-processed instantaneous images. Image histogram was used to get rid of the pixel of background and injector tip, and the remains are the region of the dark core. The dark core length means the distance between injector and the first break of the jet. The dark core length of each case were averaged from over 50 instantaneous images. Because of the narrowness of the visualization area, the dark core length in the subcritical case was not observed/visualized. The measured dark core length in supercritical/near-critical cases were compared with momentum flux ratio and density ratio. The equations between the dark core length and momentum flux ratio as suggested from previous work was analysed, and the results were found in accord with the previous work.

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>A simple and effective approach for the tight anchoring of molybdenum disulfide (MoS<SUB>2</SUB>) to the surface of supercritical-alcohol-reduced graphene oxide (SRGO) is developed. The MoS<SUB>2</SUB>-SRGO composites are synthesized by the one-pot deposition of MoO<SUB>2</SUB> on SRGO and simultaneous reduction of GO to SRGO in supercritical methanol followed by sulfurization. The obtained MoS<SUB>2</SUB>-SRGO composites contain a crystalline MoS<SUB>2</SUB> phase comprising 11–14 layers of MoS<SUB>2</SUB>. In addition, the composites have mesoporous structures with high porosities, ranging between 55 and 57%. In comparison with bare MoS<SUB>2</SUB> and SRGO, the MoS<SUB>2</SUB>-SRGO composites have enhanced electrochemical performances due to their mesoporous structures and the synergetic effect between MoS<SUB>2</SUB> and SRGO sheets. When tested as the anode in a secondary lithium battery, it shows high reversible capacity of 896 mAh g<SUP>−1</SUP> at 50 mA g<SUP>−1</SUP> after 50 cycles, a high rate capacity of 320 mAh g<SUP>−1</SUP> at a high charge-discharge rate of 2.5 A g<SUP>−1</SUP>, and long-term cycling of 724 mAh g<SUP>−1</SUP> at 50 mA g<SUP>−1</SUP> after 200 cycles.

초임계 이산화탄소를 이용한 미세전자기계시스템의 식각, 세정, 건조 연속 공정

The previous etching, rinsing and drying processes of wafers for MEMS (microelectromechanical system) using SC-CO2 (supercritical-CO2) consists of two steps. Firstly, MEMS-wafers are etched by organic solvent in a separate etching equipment from the high pressure dryer and then moved to the high pressure dryer to rinse and dry them using SC-CO2. We found that the previous two step process could be applied to etch and dry wafers for MEMS but could not confirm the reproducibility through several experiments. We thought the cause of that was the stiction of structures occurring due to vaporization of the etching solvent during moving MEMS wafer to high pressure dryer after etching it outside. In order to improve the structure stiction problem, we designed a continuous process for etching, rinsing and drying MEMS-wafers using SC-CO2 without moving them. And we also wanted to know relations of states of carbon dioxide (gas, liquid, supercritical fluid) to the structure stiction problem. In the case of using gas carbon dioxide (3 MPa, 25 oC) as an etching solvent, we could obtain well-treated MEMS-wafers without stiction and confirm the reproducibility of experimental results. The quantity of rinsing solvent used could be also reduced compared with the previous technology. In the case of using liquid carbon dioxide (3 MPa, 5 oC), we could not obtain well-treated MEMS-wafers without stic- tion due to the phase separation of between liquid carbon dioxide and etching co-solvent(acetone). In the case of using SC-CO2 (7.5 Mpa, 40 oC), we had as good results as those of the case using gas-CO2. Besides the processing time was shortened compared with that of the case of using gas-CO2.

Characterization of Alloy 600 joints exposed to a high-temperature supercritical-carbon dioxide environment

Lee, Ho Jung,Kim, Sung Hwan,Jang, Changheui Elsevier 2018 Materials characterization Vol.138 No.-

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>Two types of Alloy 600 joints, such as diffusion-bonded joint and Alloy 182 fusion-weld, were exposed to supercritical-CO<SUB>2</SUB> environment at 550 and 650 °C (20 MPa) for 1000 h. The diffusion-bond region showed similar oxidation characteristics as parent Alloy 600, but the migration of diffusion bond line below oxide layer was observed due to the Cr-depletion induced recrystallization. For Alloy 182 fusion-weld, outer Mn-rich oxides (Mn<SUB>3</SUB>O<SUB>4</SUB> and MnCr<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>4</SUB>) and a small amount of inner SiO<SUB>2</SUB> mixed with chromia were formed due to high Mn and Si contents. The presence of SiO<SUB>2</SUB> in chromia suppressed carburization at the oxide/matrix interface, which resulted in the formation of an amorphous C layer between the outer Mn-rich oxide and inner Cr-rich oxide. For Alloy 182 fusion-weld, tensile property changes after exposure to supercritical-CO<SUB>2</SUB> environment were negligible.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> Diffusion-bond showed similar corrosion and carburization behavior as parent matrix. </LI> <LI> Diffusion-bond line migrated due to the Cr-depletion induced recrystallization. </LI> <LI> Alloy 182 fusion-weld showed larger weight gains with outer Mn-rich oxides. </LI> <LI> The presence of SiO<SUB>2</SUB> in chromia suppressed carburization at the oxide/matrix interface. </LI> <LI> Despite larger weight gains, Alloy 182 fusion-weld showed negligible tensile property changes. </LI> </UL> </P>

Kim Jeong-Soo,Park Heejun,강규태,Ha Eun-Sol,김민수,Hwang Sung-Joo 한국약제학회 2022 Journal of Pharmaceutical Investigation Vol.52 No.3

Purpose In the present study, fenofibrate (a model drug with poor aqueous solubility) was micronized using the supercriticalfluid- assisted spray-drying (SA-SD) process to improve dissolution and biopharmaceutical property. Methods Solid-state characterizations including particle size analysis and dissolution test were carried out. To identify the main effects of SA-SD process parameters (such as pressure, temperature, concentration of drug solution, supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) injection rate, and drug solution injection rate) on the morphology and particle size distribution of micronized fenofibrate particles, a 27−3 IV fractional factorial screening design was employed. Moreover, the effect of improved dissolution rate via micronization using SA-SD technology on the biopharmaceutical properties of fenofibrate was evaluated in a pharmacokinetic (PK) study in Sprague–Dawley rats. Results The results of the screening design showed that the mean particle size and distribution can be controlled by manipulating the drug solution concentration and CO2 injection rate. The SA-SD process resulted in a significant decrease in mean particle size (1.8–8.33 μm), as compared with that of unprocessed fenofibrate (24.2 ± 0.8 μm). There was a significant enhancement in the dissolution rate of micronized fenofibrate particles smaller than 5 μm compared to that of unprocessed fenofibrate. Moreover, an in vivo PK study in Sprague–Dawley rats showed that the increased dissolution rate improved biopharmaceutical properties (larger area under the curve and maximum serum concentration) of micronized fenofibrate than those of unprocessed fenofibrate. Conclusion Therefore, the SA-SD process is a useful micronization technology for improving both physicochemical and biopharmaceutical properties of poorly water-soluble drugs.

이창하,이현철,Min-Jae Yoon,Jung-Hyun In 한국화학공학회 2006 Korean Journal of Chemical Engineering Vol.23 No.5

yttrium aluminum garnet (Y3Al5O12, YAG) doped with Eu (10 at% ) was synthesized by supercrit-ical water (SCW) and solid-state methods in a batch reactor. The crystals, morphologies and luminescent propertiesof the phosphors obtained from diferent pH conditions in the SCW were studied. Pure YAG phase was successfulysynthesized at the alkaline condition in the SCW without formation of intermediate phases, while the size and lumi-nescent property of YAG : Eu were strongly affected by pH condition. The luminescent intensity of YAG : Eu by theSCW method without further thermal treatment is stronger than that by the solid-state method with thermal treatment.

본 연구에서는 고종시 감껍질을 열수 추출 및 초임계 유체 추출하여 아토피 피부염 증상 억제 효과를 밝히고, 항염 효능을 나타내는 기능성 소재로서의 이용 가능성을 알아보고자 하였다. 그 결과 육안 평가를 통해 피부의 홍반(erythema), 가려움과 피부의 건조상태(pruritus and dry skin), 부종과 혈종(edema and excoriation), 짓무름(erosion), 그리고 태선화(lichenification)와 같은 아토피 피부염 같은 증상이 AD 모델에서 증가하였지만, SPPE와 PPWE를 투여하였을 경우 완화되는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, SPPE가 PPWE보다 더 뛰어난 효과를 나타내었다. 피부 두께와 염증 세포의 침윤은 AD 모델에서 크게 증가하였지만, SPPE와 PPWE를 투여하였을 경우 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, SPPE가 PPWE보다 더 뛰어난 효과를 나타내었다. 혈청 중의 IgE와 IL-4의 수치를 측정한 결과, AD 모델에서 크게 증가하였으나 SPPE와 PPWE를 투여하였을 경우 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, SPPE가 PPWE보다 더 뛰어나게 억제하는 효과를 나타내었다. 또한 RAW264.7 세포에 SPPE를 처리하였을 경우 염증매개 인자인 NO, PGE2, IL-6, IL-1β의 생성량이 유의적의로 감소하였고, PPWE의 경우 NO, PGE2, IL-1β의 생성을 억제한 반면 IL-6 생성 억제에는 영향을 나타내지 않았다. 이러한 염증 매개인자 억제 효능은 SPPE가 PPWE보다 더 뛰어나게 억제하는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 감껍질 추출물은 아토피 피부염 증상 개선과 염증관련 질환 치료를 위한 기능성 천연물 소재로 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. This study aimed to investigate the anti-atopic effect of hot water (PPWE) and supercritical-carbon dioxide fluid extract of persimmon peels (SPPE) on atopic dermatitis (AD)-like skin lesions in hairless mice. Histological analyses demonstrated that SPPE treatment more strongly inhibited the dermal infiltration of inflammatory cells in AD-like skin lesions than that by PPWE. Compared to PPWE, SPPE significantly decreased the dermatitis clinical score and the epidermal thickness and potently suppressed serum IgE and interleukin (IL)-4 production in hairless mice with AD. Furthermore, compared to PPWE, SPPE potently inhibited the production of nitric oxide, prostaglandin E₂, and proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-6 and IL-1β in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages. These results suggested that SPPE exhibited anti-atopic dermatitis activity via the regulation of inflammatory responses.

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>The demand for healthier meat and meat products with low fat is increasing rapidly to reduce cardiovascular and other chronic diseases. Bovine heart was defatted using supercritical-CO<SUB>2</SUB> (SC-CO<SUB>2</SUB>) at a constant temperature (40 °C) with three different pressures (20, 30, and 40 MPa) and using solvent extraction. The objective of this study was to produce a low-fat meat ingredient such as defatted bovine heart (DBH), and investigate its physicochemical characteristics and microbial safety, including the extraction yield and fatty acid composition of bovine heart lipid. SC-CO<SUB>2</SUB> treatment at high pressure results in higher removal of fat i.e. a higher extraction yield (93.60%). The DBH prepared using SC-CO<SUB>2</SUB> at 30 and 40 MPa had significantly higher proteins (82.07 and 82.67 g/100 g DBH, respectively), amino acids (80.39 and 79.05 g/100 g DBH, respectively), and minerals (2910 and 2901 mg/100 g DBH, respectively) and with lower microbial contents compared to those of the control and other DBHs. SC-CO<SUB>2</SUB>-extracted lipid had significantly higher unsaturated fatty acids (53.09 g/100 g fatty acids) than the control (45.62) and hexane-extracted lipid (44.65).

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>Consumer demand for proteins from animal sources has been increasing with economic growth of the populations. Freeze-dried ground bovine heart was treated using supercritical-CO<SUB>2</SUB> (SC–CO<SUB>2</SUB>) at different pressures (20, 30 and 40 MPa) and hexane to produce a protein concentrate. Thiol concentration, structural and gelling properties of the control bovine heart and bovine heart protein concentrates (BHPCs) were investigated. SC-CO<SUB>2</SUB> treatment at 20 MPa led to an increased (<I>p</I> < 0.05) thiol (–SH) content (74.08 nmol/mg protein) than those for the control and other BHPCs. Fourier–transform infrared (FT–IR) spectroscopy showed increased secondary structure of α–helix and parallel β–sheet content for SC-CO<SUB>2</SUB>–treated bovine heart protein when compared to the control and hexane–treated bovine heart protein. Integrated light scattering in protein suspension showed SC-CO<SUB>2</SUB>–treated samples had higher cumulative values (Q3) and density (q3) for the particle size distribution. SC-CO<SUB>2</SUB>–treated BHPC had better physicochemical properties without structural deterioration of proteins resulting in increased functional properties such as solubility (31.08 g/100 g bovine heart), viscosity and gelling capacity (least gelation concentration 10 g/100 mL water).

Pt/Nafion self-humidifying membranes for Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell(PEMFC) were synthesized via supercritical-impregnation methods. The Nafion 112 membranes were impregnated with Pt(II)(acetylacetonate)₂ from a supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO₂) solution at 80?C and 30MPa. After the impregnation, the pressure decreased slowly by releasing CO₂. And the Pt-impregnated Nafion membrane was converted Pt deposited Nafion membrane by reducing agent, sodium borohydride (NaBH₄) with various concentrations under 50?C and 2 hours. The prepared Pt-impregnated Nafion (Pt/Nafion) composite membrane were investigated by Electron Prove Micro analysis (EPMA) and X-rat Diffraction analysis (XRD) which showed distribution of Pt particle and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) a which revealed morphology of surface of Pt/Nafion composite membrane. The performance of the Pt/Nafion 112 membranes was examined in PEMFC as aself-humidifyin membranes using purpose-built equipment.
