The purpose of this study is to propose a method of environment assessment in the field of building materials within Korea Green Building Certification (G-SEED). The method of environment assessment in the field of building materials was examined using LEED of the United States and BREEAM of the United Kingdom, the representative environment-friendly building certification systems in other countries. Especially, each revision of BREEAM was investigated for assessment methods such as environment assessment guidelines and assessment programs. In addition, assessment process and items were analyzed in relation to BREEAM. As a result, for environment assessment in the field of building materials within G-SEED, the method of connecting essential elements such as building material assessment guidelines and database networks with G-SEED was proposed.

A random laser was achieved in a polymer membrane with silver nanoflowers on a flexible substrate. The strong confinement of the polymer waveguide and the localized field enhancement of silver nanoflowers were essential for the low-threshold random lasing action. The lasing wavelength can be tuned by bending the flexible substrate. The solution phase synthesis of the silver nanoflowers enables easy realization of this type of random lasers. The flexible and high-efficiency random lasers provide favorable factors for the development of imaging and sensing devices.

AbstractElectrospun polymer nanofiber materials have attracted tremendous interest in sensor applications as their effective sensing surface area dramatically increases with decreasing fiber diameter. The highly tunable polymer composite chemistry and surface functionality of the nanofiber material provides a wide platform for exploring different applications, such as filtration media, sound isolation materials, and sensor components. This paper presents a nanofiber sensor platform device composed of electrospun polymer/carbon composite nanofibers combined with electrodes directly printed onto the surface of the electrospun fiber mat. This structure forms an integrated sensor system for detecting various chemical vapors including volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and oxidative gases. In this sensor, the composite polymer nanofibers form a chemo-resistor sensing material, and the conductivity of these composite sensing materials varies with chemical vapor exposure. The sensor performance exhibits very stable baselines with dramatically reduced noise levels compared to conventional interdigitated electrodes. Furthermore, the sensor response to different vapors shows a linear relationship between conductivity change and vapor concentration in the range of ppb – ppm for some analytes, including methanol, chloroform and ozone. The sensitivity and selectivity of these sensors to different vapor analytes will also be discussed.

Polymeric composite nanofibers have been fabricated simply by the electrospinning of polymeric solutions containing a wide variety of suspended inclusions such as nanoparticles and nanotubes. The electrospinning process for fabrication of composite nanofibers is a multi-phase and multi-physics process. In this paper, a modified particle suspension model for electrospinning nanosuspensions is established to research the electrospinning process. The model can offer in-depth insight into physical understanding of the complex process which can not be fully explained experimentally.

AbstractComposite nanofibers including ferritin nanoparticles or multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were fabricated to enhance the physical properties of the nanofibers, such as the elastic modulus and electrical conductivity. The ferritin was homogeneously incorporated in the polymeric nanofibers, but excess carbon nanotubes (CNTs) added to the polymer solution resulted in the fabrication of composite nanofibers with rough surfaces. PVA/ferritin/CNT composite nanofibers were fabricated that had smooth surfaces, and had a good dispersion of ferritin and CNTs. These composite nanofibers are applicable to artificial muscles requiring enhanced physical properties.
