Silk fibroin/poly (vinyl pyrrolidone) conjugates were prepared and characterized through differential thermal calorimeter and thermogravimetry. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of poly (vinyl pyrrolidone) was not changed by reaction with silk fibroin. However, abnormal exothermic peak was observed at the silk fibroin/poly (vinyl pyrrolidone) conjugates. Thermogravimetric analysis showed that thermal stability of silk fibroin was relatively increased by reaction with PVP.

The compositions of fatty acid and amino acid of specialty rice which includes colored rice (Heugjinju, Jeugjinju, Josangheugchalbyeo), flavored rice (Heughyangmi, Hyangmi1), and giant embryo rice (Keunnun) were determined and compared to those of regular rice (Ilpumbyeo, Whaseonchalbyeo). Major fatty acids were linoleic acid (C18:2) and oleic acid (C18:1), which were composed of 75~80% of total fatty acids. Major amino acids were glutamic acid and aspartic acid in most cultivars but Jeugjinju in which cysteine (169.61 nmol) and GABA (129.32 nmol) were the most abundant amino acids. Thermal properties measured by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) revealed that the enthalpy (${\Delta}H$) for starch gelatinization was the highest in Josangheugchalbyeo and Whaseonchalbyeo. It suggests that the starch structure of waxy rice could be more crystallized compared to non-waxy rice, and also that amylopectin could have more impact on starch gelatinization than amylose. The on-set and complete temperature for starch gelatinization were higher in colored rice of Heugjinju and Jeugjinju, and regular rice of Whateonchalbyeo.

모바일 정보통신기기를 중심으로 패키지의 초소형화, 고집적화를 위해 플립칩 공법의 적용이 증가되고 있고 있으며 접속피치의 미세화에 따라 솔더 및 언더필을 사용하는 C4 공법보다 ACA(Anisotropic Conductive Adhesive), NCA (Non-conductive Adhesive) 등의 접착제를 이용하는 칩본딩 공법에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있다. 특히, NCA 공법의 경우 산업 현장의 대량생산에 대응하기 위해서는 접착제의 속경화 특성이 요구되어 진다. 일반적으로 접착제의 경화거동은 DSC(Differential Scanning Calorimeter)를 사용해 확인하지만, 수초 이내에 경화되는 접착제의 경우는 적용되기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 전자패키지용 접착제의 속경화 거동을 효과적으로 평가할 수 있는 방법을 조사 하였다. 실험에서 사용된 접착제는 에폭시계 레진 기반에 이미다졸계 경화제를 사용한 기본적인 포뮬레이션을 사용하였고, 경화시간은 160^{\circ}C에서 1분 이내에 경화되는 특성을 가지고 있다. 경화 거동을 확인하기 위해서 isothermal DSC와 DEA(Dielectric Analysis)의 두가지 방법을 사용해 비교하였다. 두 실험 방법 모두 $160^{\circ}C$를 유지하며 경화 거동을 확인하였고, DoC(Degree of Cure)의 측정오차를 비교 분석하였다. DEA는 이온 모빌리티 변화에 따른 유전손실율을 측정하는 방법으로 80~90% 이후의 경화도는 측정되지 않았지만, 수초 이내에 경화되는 속경화 특성을 평가하기에 적합한 것으로 확인되었다.

This study focused on assessing the solubility and structural characteristics of two types of coenzyme $Q_{10}$ ($CoQ_{10}$) complexes: the $CoQ_{10}$-starch and the $CoQ_{10}$-cyclodextrin complexes. The solubility of $CoQ_{10}$-starch complex increased significantly as the temperature was increased. However, the solubility of $CoQ_{10}$-cyclodextrin complex reached a peak at $37^{\circ}C$, and strong aggregation occurred at $50^{\circ}C$. When the temperature was raised to $80^{\circ}C$, the $CoQ_{10}$-cyclodextrin complex dissociated owing to the weakening of bonds, resulting in $CoQ_{10}$ emerging at the surface of water. Therefore, $CoQ_{10}$-cyclodextrin complexes have lower solubility, due to their reduced heat-stability, than do the $CoQ_{10}$-starch complexes. Structural differences between the two $CoQ_{10}$ complexes were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometer (XRD), and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The $CoQ_{10}$-cyclodextrin complex included an isoprenoid chain of $CoQ_{10}$, while the $CoQ_{10}$-starch complex included both the benzoquinone ring and the isoprenoid chain of $CoQ_{10}$. These results suggest that $CoQ_{10}$-starch complexes possess higher heat-stability and solubility than do the $CoQ_{10}$-cyclodextrin complexes.

Using 20 L spherical explosion vessel and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), an experimental investigation was carried on explosion characteristics and thermal decomposition of some reactive organic dust. As the result, the minimum explosion concentration of Benzoyl peroxide (BPO), Phthalic anhydride (PA) and 1-Hydroxybenzotriazol (HBT) exist between 10 and 15 g/$m^3$, which indicates that their explosion sensitivity are high. The maximum Kst values of HBT, PA and 97 % BPO are 251, 146 and 80 [$bar{\cdot}m/s$], respectively and the explosion severity of HBT is the explosion class of St-2. The flame velocity was also calculated from the combustion time of dust and flame arrival time to estimate the flame propagation characteristics in a closed vessel. The decomposition temperature and heat of decomposition reaction for 97 % BPO and HBT are $107^{\circ}C$ (1025 J/g), $214^{\circ}C$ (1666 J/g), respectively and it was found that these low decomposition temperature and high released heat affect the explosion characteristics.

Acyclovir (ACV) is one of the most effective and selective agents against viruses of the herpes group. Because of low solubility, bioavailability of ACV has shown below 30% with oral dosage form. In our previous study, we reported that the fabrication of solid dispersion of ACV was possible and the solid dispersion of ACV and PVP was the most useful in all samples. In this study, we examined the effect of mixture ratio of polymers (PEG and PVP) to ACV. Solubility of ACV was dramatically increased up to 25 mg/ml in $80^{\circ}C$ distilled water. So water was used as a solvent to eliminate problem of residual solvent. Spray drying method was used for the solid dispersion of ACV as solvent extraction. Different scanning calorimeter was used to check degradation of drug. Polymer carriers were PEG 6,000 and PVP. In summary, ACV-PVP (1:3) showed the best solubility in distilled water.

Electrolessly deposited Co (Re,P) was investigated as a possible capping layer for Cu wires. 50 nm Co (Re,P) films were deposited on Cu/Ti-coated silicon wafers which acted as a catalytic seed and an adhesion layer, respectively. To obtain the optimized bath composition, electroless deposition was studied through an electrochemical approach via a linear sweep voltammetry analysis. The results of using this method showed that the best deposition conditions were a $CoSO_4$ concentration of 0.082 mol/l, a solution pH of 9, a $KReO_4$ concentration of 0.0003 mol/l and sodium hypophosphite concentration of 0.1 mol/L at $80^{\circ}C$. The thermal stability of the Co (Re,P) layer as a barrier preventing Cu was evaluated using Auger electron spectroscopy and a Scanning calorimeter. The measurement results showed that Re impurities stabilized the h.c.p. phase up to $550^{\circ}C$ and that the Co (Re,P) film efficiently blocked Cu diffusion under an annealing temperature of $400^{\circ}C$ for 1hr. The good barrier properties that were observed can be explained by the nano-sized grains along with the blocking effect of the impurities at the fast diffusion path of the grain boundaries. The transformation temperature from the amorphous to crystal structure is increased by doping the Re.

Three experiments were performed to test the assumption that imbalanced dietary amino acid mixtures must lead to increased heat production (HP). The first experiment was based on diets formulated to have a wide range of crude protein (CP) concentrations but a fixed concentration of lysine, formulated to be the first-limiting amino acid. In the second (converse) experiment, lysine concentration was varied over a wide range while CP content was kept constant. To prevent the masking of dietary effects by thermoregulatory demands, the third experiment was performed at 30 $^{\circ}C$ with the diets similar to the diets used in the second experiment. The detailed relationships among amino acid balance, nitrogen (N) metabolism and energy (E) metabolism were investigated in a computer-controlled chamber calorimetry system. The results of experiments were compared with the predictions of a computerised simulation model of E metabolism. In experiment 1. with constant lysine and varying CP, there was a 75 % increase in N intake as CP concentration increased. This led to a 150 % increase in N excretion. with no significant change in HP. Simulated HP agreed with the empirically determined results in not showing a trend with dietary CP. In experiment 2, with varying lysine but constant CP, there was a 3-fold difference in daily weight gain between the lowest and highest lysine diets. HP per bird increased significantly with dietary lysine concentration. There was still an effect when HP was adjusted for body weight differences, but it failed to maintain statistical significance. Simulated HP results agreed in showing little effect of varying lysine concentration and growth rate on HP. Based on the results of these two experiments, the third experiment was designed to test the response of birds to dietary lysine in high ambient temperature. In experiment 3 which performed at high ambient temperature (30 $^{\circ}C$), HP per bird increased significantly with dietary lysine content, whether or not adjusted for body-weight. The trend was greater than in the previous experiment (20 $^{\circ}C$).

We investigated out the effect of cultivation region on the physicochemical characteristics of starch in six sweetpotato cultivars. The following sweetpotato cultivars were analyzed: Daeyumi, Shingeonmi, Jinhongmi, Shinyulmi, Yulmi, and Yeonhwangmi. Samples were cultivated in Muan, Iksan, Nonsan, Boryeong and Hamyang. The soil texture was found to be sandy loam in Muan, Iksan, and Boryeong, sandy clay loam in Nonsan, and loam in Hamyang. The starch content of the sweetpotato was higher in Muan than in Hamyang. The amylose content was 22.3-30.9%, and the highest amylose content was found in samples from Iksan. Rapid viscosity analysis showed that the samples from Hamyang had the lowest values of pasting temperature, while samples of the Daeyumi cultivar had the highest values. Thermal analysis with a differential scanning calorimeter showed that the Muan samples had the highest values of onset temperature, maximum peak temperature, and completion temperature, and the samples from Hamyang had the lowest values. There was no difference between the cultivation regions or the cultivar in the X-ray pattern of the starch or its appearance in scanning electron micrographs. Therefore, the results of this study confirm that cultivation region and cultivar play an important role in determining the quality of sweetpotato and the physicochemical characteristics of sweetpotato starch.
