Silicone-containing polyamide-imides were prepared from bis(p-chlorocarbonylphenyl)diphenylsilane (BCCDPS), pyromellitic dianhydride(PMDA) and diamines. The thermal characteristics of the above polymers had been carefully studied using a thermogravimetric analyzer. The thermal stability of polymer was decreased with increasing contents of bis(p-carbonylphenyl)diphenylsilane units(BCDPS). The effect of diamine on thermal stability of polymer led benzidine > m-phenylenediamine> 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether > 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl sulfone. The activation energy of degradation of polymer obtained by Friedman method increased as the contents of BCDPS in the polymer decreased. The degradation temperature of polymers generally increased as the activation energy increased. The solubility of polymer increased as the content of BCDPS increased except polymers prepared with benzidine.

Arrhenius kinetic constants, the activation energy and the pre-exponential factor, of energetic material $BKNO_3$ are estimated using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). Different from the conventional way, the activation energy was estimated more precisely through DSC aging trial, and the consumed fraction by heat was calculated by comparing the integration of heat flow. We suggested the condition of accelerated aging test for the energetic material $BKNO_3$ and reconsidered the meaning of the thermal accelerated aging.

The solid and protein yields and extraction properties of color pigments were compared for 7 varieties of soybeans during soaking in water at $4-100^{\circ}C$. The varieties investigated were Paldal, Danyeob, Jangbaek, Baegun, Jangyeob and 2 cultivars of Local 1 and Local 2. The Hunter values showed that Jangbaek was the highest in 'L' value while other varieties except Local 1 and Local 2 were comparatively high in 'L' value. Local 1 and Local 2 were low in 'b' value. The yields of solid and protein during water extraction showed that most of solids and proteins were recovered with three consecutive extractions. The cumulated yields were 73.2 % for solid and 83.2 % for protein. Extraction of color pigments of seed coats in $4-100^{\circ}C$ water showed that the extraction rate was very much dependent on extraction time and temperature. A linear relationship of A=aT+b was obtained for equilibrated absorbance(A) and extraction temperature(T). The activation energy calculated from initial extraction rate of cole. pigments and temperature had two different values of low($4-60^{\circ}C$) and high($60-100^{\circ}C$) temperature range.

Gelatinization properties of heat-moisture treated Olchal(japonica) and Hankangchalbyeo(j x indica) waxy rice starches were compared. The blue value, light transmittance of starch suspension and viscosity in sodium hydroxide solution were similar between two starches. Olchal starch showed lower water binding capacity, swelling power md peak viscosity by amylograph than Hankangchalbyeo starch. Upon heat-moisture treatments all above parameters were decreased. The critical sodium hydroxide concentration for gelatinization was increased by treatments. The initial pasting temperature of Olchal starch was higher than that of Hankarlgchalbyeo. All amylograph reference points increased by the treatments, except the maximum viscosity or 2l% moisture-treated Olchal starch. Starches treated at 18% moisture level showd the highest value of consistency index. The activation energy of consistency index for gelatinized Olchal starch was lower than that for Hankangchalbyeo starch. The heat-moisture treatments had no effect on activation energy.

Polyimide membrane system was designed for manufacturing nitrogen-enriched gas, and basic technical data was suggested for appling this system to controlled atmosphere storage. The permeability characteristics of pure oxygen and nitrogen could be explained by dual-mode sorption model. There was substantial decrease in the permeation rates of oxygen, which is the more permeable gas, through the polyimide membrane due to the presence of nitrogen in comparison with pure oxygen. However, the permeation rates of nitrogen was increased by the presence of oxygen. The ideal separation factor was in the range of 5 to 6 in the range of temperature and pressure difference studied, and the separation factor of air was lower than the ideal separation factor. The increase of ideal separation factor with increasing temperature is due to the fact that the activation energy for oxygen is larger than that for nitrogen. Nitrogen concentration decreased rapidly with increasing product recovery, and it was found that this is a major operating factor to obtain nitrogen concentration required for controlled atmosphere storage. A relation equation, by which nitrogen concentration in storehouse can be predicted, was suggested under the establishment of a hypothetical model for controlled atmosphere storage process using polyimide membrane system.

Yeast invertase was immobilized on the 2 kinds of matrices : one is an indirectly coupled enzyme to the cyanogen bromide activated Sepharose by using ${\omega}-aminohexyl$ group as an extension arm, and the other is a tightly adsorbed enzyme on the modified hydrophobic cellulose derivative which has a phenoxyacetyl group as a linkage. The enzyme preparation coupled on Sepharose retained 26.0% of the original activity against sucrose as a substrate, while the preparation immobilized on phenoxyacetyl cellulose retained 72.9% . The immobilized invertase preparation on ${\omega}-aminohexyl$ Sepharose showed the optimal pH 4.5, optimal temperature $60^{\circ}C$, activation energy $5,941\;cal/mole{\cdot}deg$ and Km' 22.2 mM against sucrose, while the preparation adsorbed on phenoxyacetyl cellulose showed the optimal pH 4.0, optimal temperature $60^{\circ}C$, activation energy $7,769\;cal/mole{\cdot}deg$ and Km' 69.9 mM.

Kinetic parameters for the texture degradation of three varieties of sweet potato during heating were determined using two alternative methods, the biphasic model and the fractional conversion method. The texture degradation of sweet potatoes during heating could be expressed by two simultaneous first order reactions using the biphasic method, whose activation energies were ranged $71.0{\sim}75.1\;kJ/mol\;and\;48.4{\sim}59.6\;kJ/mol$ for the initial fast texture degradation reaction and the slow texture degradation reaction at a prolonged heating period, respectively. However, the whole texture degradation phenomena of sweet potatoes during heating could also be explained by a single first order reaction using the fractional conversion method. The activation energies were $67.5{\sim}75.3\;kJ/mol$, which were comparable with those of the first phase reaction for the texture degradation determined by the biphasic model. A kinetic compensation effect shown between the kinetic parameters determined by both methods indicates that both methods can be conveniently used to determine kinetic parameters for the texture degradation of sweet potatoes by heating.

Effects of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) concentration, temperature and pH on oxidation mechanism of corn starch were investigated. The rate of oxidation was dependent on the concentration of hypochlorite, pH and temperature of oxidation. The reaction was either first or second order depending on the concentration of NaOCl. At oxidant concentration of $0.75{\sim}3.0%$ active Cl/g starch, the reaction was first-order and it was second-order at $3.75{\sim}4.5%$ active Cl/g starch. The first-order rate constants were increased with increasing oxidant concentration. The rate of oxidation of starch was highest at pH 7 and decreased with increasing acidity or alkalinity of the medium. As the reaction temperature increased, the rate of oxidation was increased.

An oligomeric diol was utilized as a modifier for the reaction rate and mechanical properties of a RT-castable polyurethane elastomer. Both the reaction rate and the tensile strength of the blend samples, in which the modifier and the base resins were mixed with one-shot method, showed an exponential decrease as the increase of modifier concentration. Thermal analysis method of Kissinger was also effectively applied in the present study, showing good linearity in the plot of ln $(q/T^2_p)$ vs. $(1/T_p)$ and activation energy $E_a$ of 44.80 kJ/mol, which is similar to the general castable polyurethane. In the mechanical properties, remarkable decrease of strength was found by the addition of modifier concentration range up to about 20 phr, while characteristic elongation property of the elastomer, high elongation at lower strength, was observed over 20 phr of the modifier. Exponential decrease of the break strength of the blend sample exhibited that the mechanical properties of the blend might be considerably sensitive to the modifier concentration.

The experimental work has been carried out for the study of pyrolysis and char-air reaction of five coals used in Y power station in Korea. For five coals, the characteristics of pyrolyis and char reaction have been investigated with TGA, and their kinetic parameters were obtained and compared each other. The order of pyrolysis rate for five coals were as follows : Peabody, Flame, MIP, Indominco, Elk valley. The behavior of char - air reaction for five coal chars have been successfully described by the grain model. The rate of char-air reaction gave the maximum value for Flame coal char, on the while Elk valley coal char had the minimum value. For the reaction temperature over 1,000K, Flame coal char - air reaction was very fast compared with other coal chars.
