The saccharogenic liquid (SFW) obtained by the enzymatic saccharification of food wastes was used as a medium for production of bacterial cellulose (BC). The enzymatic saccharification of food wastes was carried out by the cultivation supernatant of Trichoderma harziaum FJ1 culture. Acetobacter xylinum KJ1 was employed for the BC production culture. The physical properties, such as polymerization, crystallinity, Young's modulus, and tensile strength, of BCs produced by three culture methods: the static cultures using HS (Hestrin-Schramm) as a reference medium (A) or the SFW medium (B), the shaking culture (C) or the air circulation culture (D) using the SFW medium, were investigated. The degrees of polymerization of BCs produced under the different culture conditions (A-D) showed 11000, 9500, 8500, and 9200, respectively. Young's modulus was 4.15, 5.0, 4.0, and 4.6 GPa, respectively. Tensile strength was 124, 200, 80, and 184 MPa, respectively. All of the BC had a form of cellulose I representing pure cellulose. In the case of the shaking culture, the degree of crystallinity was 51.2%, the lowest degree. Under the other culturing conditions, the trend should remain in the range of 89.7-84%. Overall, the physical properties of BC produced from SFW were similar to those of BC from HS medium, a commercial complex medium, and BC production by the air circulation culture mode brought more favorable results in terms of the physical properties and its ease of scale-up. Therefore, it is expected that a new BC production method, like air circulation culture using SFW, would contribute greatly to BC-related manufacturing.

Purpose: The properties of starch and starch gel prepared from a newly inbred sweet potato, Daeyumi were compared to the properties of starch and starch gel prepared from Sinyulmi which is a well known mealy type sweet potato. Methods: The starch was isolated by using the alkaline steeping method. Physicochemical, pasting, and thermal properties, and crystallinity were measured. The texture properties of starch gel (10%, w/w) were examined. Results: The amylose contents of Daeyumi and Sinyulmi starches were 25.57% and 22.59%, respectively. The initial pasting temperature of Daeyumi starch was significantly higher than that of Sinyulmi starch (p<0.05), but other paste viscosities were not different. The peak and conclusion temperatures of Daeyumi starch were higher than those of Sinyulmi starch by differential scanning calorimetry. The shape of Daeyumi starch gel was more clear and rigid than the shape of Sinyulmi starch gel. The surface and the upper side of Daeyumi starch gel were smoother than the surface and the upper side of Sinyulmi starch gel. Hardness and gumminess were higher in Daeyumi starch gel than in Sinyulmi starch gel. The crystallinity types of Daeyumi and Sinyulmi starches were $C_b$ and A types, respectively, but starch gels showed an amorphous type. Conclusion: Therefore, it is suggested that Daeyumi starch would have better physicochemical properties and higher quality of starch gel than Sinyulmi starch.

분해성 천연 고분자인 PHB와 chitosan을 블렌드하여 필름을 제조한뒤 필름의 결정특성 및 물리적 성질을 측정한 결과 PHB/chitosan 필름의 X선 회절도 측정에서 상대 결정화도는 chitosan의 함량이 증가할수록 낮아졌으며 FT-lR 측정에서는 chitosan 비율이 증가할수록 PHB의 carbonyl기 의 피크가 작아졌다. DSC측정에 의한 필름의 열적 특성에서는chitosan의 첨가로 인해 열안정성과 결정성이 낮아지는 경향을 보였다. 시차주사현미경을 이용하여 관찰한 필름의 표면상태에서는 chitosan의 비율이 증가할수록 입자크기가 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 필름의 물성은 PHB에 대한 chitosan의 함량이 증가할수록 인장강도와 신장률이 증가하여 chitosan 첨가로 인해 필름의 물성이 향상된 것을 알 수 있었다. PHB/chitosan필름의 색도 측정 결과 PHB에 chitosan의 함량이 증가할수록 L값과 b값은 낮아지고 필름의 투명도는 높아졌다.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of milling of boron (B), which is one of raw materials of $MgB_2$, on the critical current density ($J_c$) of $MgB_2$. B powder used in this study is semi-amorphous B (Pavezyum, Turkey, 97% purity, 1 micron). The size of B powder was reduced by planetary milling using $ZrO_2$ balls (a diameter of 2 mm). The B powder and balls with a ratio of 1:20 were charged in a ceramic jar and then the jar was filled with toluene. The milling time was varied from 0 to 8 h. The milled B powders were mixed with Mg powder in the composition of (Mg+2B), and the powder mixtures were uniaxially pressed at 3 tons. The powder compacts were heat-treated at $700^{\circ}C$ for 1 h in flowing argon gas. Powder X-ray diffraction and FWHM (Full width at half maximum) were used to analyze the phase formation and crystallinity of $MgB_2$. The superconducting transition temperature ($T_c$) and $J_c$ of $MgB_2$ were measured using a magnetic property measurement system (MPMS). It was found that $B_2O_3$ was formed by B milling and the subsequent drying process, and the volume fraction of $B_2O_3$ increased as milling time increased. The $T_c$ of $MgB_2$ decreased with increasing milling time, which was explained in terms of the decreased volume fraction of $MgB_2$, the line broadening of $MgB_2$ peaks and the formation of $B_2O_3$. The $J_c$ at 5 K increased with increasing milling time. The $J_c$ increase is more remarkable at the magnetic field higher than 3 T. The $J_c$ at 5 K and 4 T was the highest as $4.37{\times}10^4A/cm^2$ when milling time was 2 h. The $J_c$ at 20 K also increased with increasing milling time. However, The $J_c$ of the samples with the prolonged milling for 6 and 8 h were lower than that of the non-milled sample.

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were synthesized on glass substrates in the different ramp-up heating ambient of vacuum, He, Ar, and $N_{2}$ by thermal chemical vapor deposition. CNTs with higher crystallinity were developed in the buffer gases with faster growth rates than in vacuum. Field emission characteristics were strongly related to the relative position of CNT emitters to the cathode electrodes. The areal-spread emission and instability were overcome by locating the emitters far away from the edges of cathode electrodes. The electrical conditioning of emitters improved their emission uniformity over a large area although it decreased the emission current. This study also discussed the long-term stability of CNT emitters.

Transparent conductive ZnO:Ga thin films were deposited on glass substrates using rf magnetron sputtering method for flat panel display. The ZnO:Ga films were preferentially oriented to c-axis (002) of on substrates. The surface morphology was smooth and had not porous whatever substrate temperature was. The electrical conductivity of the thin films were in the range of $1.6{\times}10^2{\sim}6.7{\times}10^3\;{\Omega}^{-1}cm^{-1}$ at the growth temperature from 50 to $400^{\circ}C$, whereas has a maximum at around $250^{\circ}C$. By combining of XRD and EXAFS, the crystallinity and grain size decreased with increasing substrate temperature corresponding to the reduction of the grain-boundary scattering. The optical transmittance of sputtered ZnO:Ga thin films had an improved about 86% in the UV-visible region.

The epitaxially grown Mg-doped GaN thin film was prepared by MOCVD (Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition) for a SAW(Surface Acoustic Wave) filter. Mg-doped GaN thin film had enough properties for a SAW filter which include crystallinity and morphology. The surface morphology and crystalline of the Mg-doped GaN thin films were characterized using AFM and an X-ray rocking curve. The SAW filter, which was fabricated by lift-off process and frequency response, was measured by HP 8753C network analyzer. Center frequency was 96.687 MHz and SAW velocity was 5801 m/s when wavelength(λ) was 60${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Insertion loss was over -10 dB, Q was factor over 200, and side lobe attenuation was over 22 dB which was suitable for use as a SAW filter. Electro-mechanical coupling coefficient (k$^2$) was calculated from the measured data. k$^2$ was from 1 % to 1.44 %. The fabricated SAW filter using Mg-doped GaN/sapphire structure has good qualities as a filter and will be used as a SAW filter for operating RF frequency.

High Modulus and high tenacity polypropylene fibers have been prepared by drawing on a gradient heater. Results show that fiber properties are significantly affected by temperature profiles of final stage drawing on a gradient heater. The gradient drawn filaments showed superior mechanical properties when compared to filaments drawn over a constant temperature heater. Fibers with initial modulus of 16.4 GPa and tenacity of 670 MPa have been manufactured in the process. The nature of the gradient drawing had a significant effect on end properties. The superior mechanical properties are attributed to the high crystal perfection and crystallinity and low void fractions obtained at high draw ratios when drawn over a gradient heater.

The development of high tenacity, high modulus monofilaments from Polypropylene/Clay nanocomposite has been investigated. Pure sodium montmorillonite nanoclay was modified using hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (HTAB) via an ion exchange reaction. Pure and modified clay were characterized through X-ray diffraction, FTIR and TGA. The modified clay was melt blended with polypropylene (PP) in presence of a swelling agent. Composite filaments from PP/Clay nanocomposite were prepared at different weight percentages of nanoclay and the spinning and drawing conditions were optimized. The filaments were characterized for their mechanical, morphological and thermal properties. The composite PP filaments with modified clay showed improved tensile strength, modulus and reduced elongation at break. The composite filaments with unmodified clay did not show any improvement in tensile strength but the modulus improved. The sharp and narrow X-ray diffraction peaks of PP/nanoclay composite filaments indicate increase in crystallinity in presence of modified clay at small loadings (0.5 %). The improved thermal stability was observed in filaments with modified as well as unmodified clays.
