For elderly individuals with swallowing difficulties, texture-modified food containing thickeners is needed. The plant materials freeze-dried yam, lotus root, and artichoke were evaluated for their potential use as thickeners and compared to a commercial thickener (corresponding to 0.5, 1, or 2 bag viscosity, respectively). Yam powder showed a high peak viscosity, corresponding to that of rice starch. Although artichoke showed no pasting viscosity, it may be useful as a thickener when combined with xanthan gum. The certain amount of yam, lotus root, and artichoke powders added to commercial soup showed similar viscosities as the addition of 0.5 or 1 bag commercial thickener at $60^{\circ}C$. However, sufficient viscosity corresponding to that of 2 bags of commercial thickener was not achieved by using the plant material itself. Sensory tests by elderly subjects revealed that the soup with yam powder was preferred compared to soup made with other materials.

We propose a measurement method for evaluating constituent contents of carbon fiber/epoxy composites through a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA). The sample used in the test was taken from a strand specimen made of carbon fiber/epoxy tow prepreg, and the change in weight of the sample over time was measured in real time. Using a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), we examine the thermal damage condition of the carbon fiber depending on whether resin was removed or not. We find that it was possible to test even a small amount of sample when using TGA vis-à-vis using a conventional muffle furnace. In addition, TGA enables the temperature and exposure time to be controlled, allowing the constituent contents of composite materials to be efficiently and quantitatively evaluated.

Cracking due to material behavior like drying shrinkage easily occurs since tensile strength in concrete is very low at initial curing stage. In this paper, workability such as air content and slump was evaluated on CFC(Cellulose Fiber Concrete) with 0.0 ~ 2.0% of fiber addition, and the tests for tensile/compressive strength were performed. With increasing addition ratio of fiber, air content and slump kept similar level to 1.0kg/㎥ of addition ratio, and this trend was effective to 2 hours after mixing. Strength was enhanced with increasing addition ratio, which showed 7.0 ~ 9.0% for compressive strength and 7.0 ~ 22.0% for tensile strength, respectively. The tensile strength increased relatively more, which show the addition of cellulose fiber was very effective to crack resistance. The workability in CFC can be guaranteed for 2 hours in the following conditions like 2 minutes of mixing period and 1.0kg/㎥ of addition ratio of fiber.

The metal complex dyes that are mainly used for good color fastness in dyeing amide fibers with highly concentrated colors usually contain toxic chromium. The remaining dye in th dyebath containing $Cr^{6+}$ causes not only environmental problems but also serious damages to human health. In this study, we applied reactive dyestuff for dyeing wool and nylon in order to substitute heavy metal dyestuff. The dyeing properties of reactive dyestuff in fibers as well as their absorption rates and fastness according to color concentration were investigated. By analyzing the quantity of heavy metals and toxic amine of reactive dyestuff, we investigated their harmfulness trends quantitatively. By comparing the reactive dyes with traditional metal complex dyes, we tried to find out the possibility of the reactive dye being a clean dyes in the future.

Two different UHPCCs having different fiber lengths and volume fractions are considered to be applied to bridge decks. The objective of this study is to estimate cracking resistance of the two UHPCCs. The notched beam tests were performed with the UHPCCs, and the relationships between load and CMOD(Crack Mouth Opening Displacement) were obtained from the tests. The tensile stress and crack opening relationships optimally fitting the measured load-CMOD curves were found through the inverse analyses. The UHPCC with 2% volume fraction of 13 mm long fiber has lower fracture energy than the UHPCC with 0.5% and 1.0% volume fractions of 16.3 mm and 19.5 mm long fibers, respectively. It indicates that the latter UHPCC is more effective in uniformly distributing crack formation and reducing crack width.

This study was to investigate the effect of alkali treatment for long kenaf fiber to improve fiber surface characterics by removal of wax, lignin and hemicellulose which affect adversely for matrix union. SEM observation was also studied to check out the interface adhesion improvement by the alkali pre-treatment. From the result, interface coherence increased by 3% alkali pre-treatment and reached a maximum by 5% alkali pre-treatment. However, the 3% the bio-composites treated with 3% alkali was highest tensile and flexural strength than other.

In recent years, extreme rainfall and rainy seasons caused by climate change have caused river flooding and flooding damage, and it is urgent to solve economic and environmental problems in the city center due to the increase in the number of peak homes. The gap block, called the fitting block, is designed to facilitate rainwater pitching by forming a gap between the block and the block by forming a concave part and a protrusion of the block differently without the use of an existing spacer. In this study, for the production of such a gap block, the existing cement content was reduced and aramid fibers and exploration fibers, which are industrial by-products such as Goroslag fine powder and reinforcing fibers, were applied.

대두에는 이소플라본(isoflavone), 콩단백질, 올리고당(oligosaccharides), 식이섬유(dietary fiber), pretense inhibitor, 사포닌(saponin), 피틴산(phytic acid), 피니톨(pinitol) 등과 같은 다양한 기능성 성분이 함유되어있다. 대두 이소플라본의 경우, boiling, steaming, roasting의 가열 방법 중 roasting이 손실을 최소화하는 가열방법이며, 대두제품 중에는 대두, natto, 두부, 두유, 된장, 고추장 순으로 함량이 감소한다. 대두나 단순대두 가공품의 경우는 glucoside의 비율이 높은 것에 비하여, natto를 제외한 발효 대두에 있어서 aglycone의 함량이 상대적으로 더 높게 나타난다. 대두 올리고당 함량(%)은 생대두분말(2.87)>대두(2.75)>두유(2.59)>두부(0.56)>natto(0.34) 순으로 높다. 생대두의 경우 상당량의 BBPI(Bowman-Birk pretense inhibitor)가 함유되어 있으나 다양한 가공, 조리 공정을 거친 대두 가공제품의 경우 대부분의 BBPI가 소실 또는 불활성화 되는 것으로 나타난다. 대두 phytate는 열과 수침에 비교적 안정하나, 발표기간이 길어지면 함량이 감소한다. 대두 피니톨은 수용성이며 열 및 산, 알칼리 조건에서 매우 안정하다. 대두는 생으로 섭취하지 않고 익혀서 먹거나, 다양한 대두제품의 형태로 섭취하므로, 생리활성을 기대하며 대두제품을 섭취할 때, 대두의 조리 및 가공 과정이 기능성 성분에 미치는 영향을 고려하는 것이 필요하다고 사료된다.

The mechanical and curing properties of short nylon66 fiber reinforced Chloroprene rubber have been investigated as functions of interphase conditions and fiber content. The tensile strength exhibits a dilution effect at a low fiber content in each interphase. It is found that the interphase conditions have an important affect on the dilution ratio and critical fiber content. Double coatings of bonding agent 402 and rubber solution become the best interphase model in this study. The yield strength, tensile modulus, tear strength and fracture toughness at rupture, Jr are significantly improved due to fiber concentration.

식이 섬유질에는 여러 종류가 있고 그 종류에 따라 short chain fatty acid(SCFA)의 생산 등 생리작용도 크게 다르다. 식이 섬유질 중 수용성은 장내세균의 발효를 받아 butyrate, acetate, propionate 등의 SCFA를 생산한다. 수용성 식이 섬유질을 섭취함으로서 SCFA의 생산을 증가시키고 대장점막증식, 물.전해질 흡수 촉진, 혈류량을 증가시키는 작용 외에 면역조절 작용을 가지고 있다. 식이 섬유는 장관계 질환 중의 하나인 염증성 장질환 특히 궤양성 대장염의 치료법으로서 기대되고 있으며, 암세포 연구에서는 butyrate 가 apoptosis 유도작용과 발암유전자의 억제효과가 확인되고 있으나 역학 연구에서는 식이 섬유질에 의한 대장암 예방효과는 아직 불확실하다. 모든 유형의 식이 섬유질은 건강 식품으로서 사용되고 있으며, prebiotic으로서도 주목받고 있다. 또한 경장 영양제에도 각종의 식이 섬유질이 첨가되어 있다. 그러나 충분한 양의 비타민과 무기질을 함유한 고섬유질식과, 건강 식품으로서의 식이 섬유질을 같은 의미로 해석하기에는 여러 가지 문제가 남아 있다.
