The effect of surface roughness on biodegradability of poly (3-hydroxybutyrate) was investigated. The PHB film prepared by cooling the molten polymer slowly ($-0.5^{\circ}C$/min) had higher crystallinity and melting temperature than that prepared by quenching into liquid nitrogen followed by annealing at $90^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. However, the former sample was found to degrade faster than the latter due to presence of microscopic crack. Roughening the surface of a PHB film by hot pressing under a coarse surfaced plate accelerated the bioerosion considerably of the sample in comparison with the sample having the same thermal history but smooth surface.

In this study, a relationship between DC discharge and the radiated electromagnetic waves is investigated by measuring electromagnetic waves using a biconical antenna and a spectrum analyzer. The characteristics of frequency spectrum ofthe radiated electromagnetic waves was measured at the atmospheric pressure in Liquid Nitrogen $(LN_2)$ during partial discharges in nonuniform and uniform electric field depend on positive DC power. From this experiment results, it was confirmed that when partial discharge was produced in Liquid Nitrogen and Air, the signal of partial discharge was detected by this experiment and the analysis method. It is considered thatthese results obtained from this investigation may be used as fundamental data for diagnosis and prediction of insulation on the equipments ultra-high voltage, superconducting and cryogenic applications.

This paper was studied on the surface discharge characteristics on the solid insulators in the Liquid Nitrogen($LN_2$) at atmospheric pressure. Liquid Nitrogen has been widely used as a tooling and insulating materials for superconducting and cryogenic cable. Considering the effect of bubbles, we observed tracking Phenomena on the surface of solid insulators and investigated surface breakdown characteristics of several solid insulators.

Liquid nitrogen has many adventages. It is cheaper than other cooling medium. It is easy to obtain high purity. It's utilized with easy. In future, liquid nitrogen is able to be accepted cooling medium for the superconducting and cryogenic applicated equipments. Cryogenic liquid may be atmospheric pressure state because thermoinsulation is ineffective, airtight decreasing by long time using and bubble occured by flowing current. If it is to be atmospheric pressure state, the electrical insulation strength is dropped and processed partial discharge, finally breakdown. Processing of breakdown has anticipated by measuring radiated-electromagnetic wave which is happened in time of breakdown. There is a measurement of radiated electromagnetic wave as a method that proceeding breakdown is anticipated. In this paper, radiated electromagnetic wave was measured in arc discharge by above conditions as a basic experiment.

The effect of nutritional and cultural conditions for the production of anti-complementary polysaccharide from Pleurotus sajor-caju was studied. Maximum anti-complementary activity from its culture broth and mycelium was obtained by using lactose and maltose as a carbon source, respectively. Ammonium phosphate (monobasic) and serine were chosen for the highest activity among the inorganic nitrogen compounds and amino acids tested. Optimum temperature for the production of the anti-complementary polysaccharide was $25^{\circ}C$.

This paper describes the discharge characteristics of liquid nitrogen for plane-plane, needle-plane electrode at variation of gap spacing at atmospheric pressure. The important results obtained from this study are as follows. (1) Breakdown voltage of $LN_2$ for needle-plane electrode is higher than that of for plane-plane electrode and discharge duration tine is longer with increase of gap spacing at atmospheric pressure. (2) The formation of bubbles by evaporation is observed in spite of non-applying source at atmospheric pressure and the creation of corona confirmed for plane-plane electrode results from the bubbles. (3) The applied voltage-discharge magnitude( V-Q) characteristics of $LN_2$ showed hysteresis and the discharge magnitude decreasing and corona voltage increasing proportional to the pulse per second at atmospheric pressure.

The grand canonical ensemble partition function for the adsorbed phase of gases on solid surfaces is derived according to the transient state theory of significant liquid structure. The derived adsorption isotherms from the partition function for argon, nitrogen and benzene adsorbed on various adsorbents are in good agreement with the observed values. The surface pressure, the molar entropy, the molar internal energy and the molar heat of adsorption are calculated for benzene adsorbed on graphite. The molar entropy is minimum at near the pressure where a close packed monolayer is formed. The method of parameter determination is illustrated.

High temperature superconducting films of $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ were fabricated on the (100) single crystal faces of YSZ (yttria stabilized zirconia) and SrTi$O_3$ by aerosol spray using ultrasonic atomization. The superconducting phase was formed by a three-step process: (a) spraying of a stoichiometric solution of nitrates of yttrium, barium, and copper on heated substrates kept at 250$^{\circ}C$, (b) preheating of the sprayed films in air at 550$^{\circ}C$, and (e) sintering of the films in flowing oxygen at 950$^{\circ}C$, followed by furnace cooling. Resistances of the films were measured by the dc four-probe method and superconductivity was confirmed above the liquid nitrogen temperature.

In this paper the experiments of breakdown characteristics by temperature change of $SF_6$ gas, $SF_6$ liquid ($LSF_6$) and $N_2$ liquid ($LN_2$) in model GIS(Gas Insulated Switchgear) were described. From the experiments results, the breakdown voltage of $SF_6$ increases with the drop of temperature and the increase of the inner pressure in model GIS. The ability of $LSF_6$ insulation is higher than high-pressurized $SF_6$ gas and $LN_2$. The breakdown characteristics of $LSF_6$ were produced by bubble formed evaporation of $LSF_6$ and bubble caused by high electric emission. It is considered in this paper that the results are fundamental data for electric insulation design of superconductor and cryogenic equipments machine교 which will be studied and developed in the future.
