External charges with four different kinds of tamping materials are tested to determine the effect of tamping on the blasting of steel components and concrete blocks. The tamping materials used are tamping cap, urethane foam, sand bag and mud. As a result, the tamping cap, urethane foam, and sand bag show no significant effect of tamping. But the mud tamping shows that the charge amount can be reduced by more than 20% in completely cutting the structural components. In addition, it is found from the test that the standard equation for calculating the proper charge is rather conservative, which means the equation overestimates the necessary charge for the blasting.

In high-voltage devices such as thyristor, beveling is mostly used junction termination method to reduce the surface electric field far below the bulk electric field and to expand the depletion region thus that breakdown occurs in the bulk of the device rather than at the surface. However, coating material used to protect the surface of the device contain so many charges which affect the electrical characteristics of the device. And device reliability is also affected by this charge. Therefore, it is needed to analyze the effect of surface charge on electrical characteristics of the device. In this paper, we analyzed the breakdown voltage and leakage current characteristics of the thyristor as a function of the amount of surface charge density. Two dimensional process simulator ATHENA and two-dimensional device simulator ATLAS is used to analyze the surface charge effects.

In this paper, the data retention characteristics were analyzed to find out the thickness effect on the trap energy distribution of silicon nitride in the silicon-oxide-nitride-oxide-silicon (SONOS) flash memory devices. The nitride films were prepared by low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD). The flat band voltage shift in the programmed device was measured at the elevated temperatures to observe the thermal excitation of electrons from the nitride traps in the retention mode. The trap energy distribution was extracted using the charge decay rates and the experimental results show that the portion of the shallow interface trap in the total nitride trap amount including interface and bulk trap increases as the nitride thickness decreases.

Linear Shaped Charge(LSC) is widely used as a separation system in the field of weapon system. However, there are some disadvantages that are charging lots of explosives due to lack of uniformity and having difficulties of the design of liner and explosives because of manufacturing process. In order to solve these problems, Precision Linear Shaped Charge(PLSC) that can design a liner independently and charge explosives uniformly has been developed. In this study, PLSC was designed to have a proper liner shape and amount of explosives, and the penetration test of PLSC with different stand-off distance from liner to target was conducted. On the basis of the penetration test results of PLSC, the numerical analysis method using AUTODYN was established and verified. The penetrative mechanism and characteristics of PLSC with targets of different materials was analyzed from experimental and numerical results.

In the case of immobilizing of glucose oxidase (GOx) in polypyrrole (PPy) conducting polymer using electrosynthesis, the GOx obstructs charge transfer and mass transport during the film growth. This may lead to short chained polymer and/or make charge-coupling weak between the GOx and the backbone of the PPy. That is mainly due to insulating property and net chain of the GOx. Since being the case, it is useless to increase in amount of GOx mere than reasonable in the synthetic solution. We improved the amount of immobilized GOx into the PPy by adding a little ethanol in the synthetic solution without any more amount of GOx in the solution. We electrochemically analyzed an improvement in the immobilizing event. For the glucose sensing, when ethanol was added by 0.1 mol $dm^{-3}$ in the synthetic solution, the Michaelis constant of the resulting enzyme electrode was about 32 mmol $dm^{-3}$ and maximum current was about $146\mu A$.

In the case of immobilizing of glucose oxidase in organic polymer using electrosynthesis, the glucose oxidase obstructs charge transfer and mass transport during the film growth. This may lead to short chained polymer and make charge-coupling weak between the glucose oxidase and the backbone of the polymer. That is mainly due to insulating property and net chain of the glucose oxidase. Such being the case, it is useless to increase in amount of glucose oxidase more than reasonable in the synthetic solution. We establish by means of qualitative analysis that amount of immobilized glucose oxidase can be improved by adding a hole ethyl alcohol in the synthetic solution. As ethyl alcohol was added by 0.1mol $dm^{-3}$ in the synthetic solution, the faradic impedance of resultant electrode was increased about five times as much as the case of ethyl alcohol free in the solution, and mass transport was limited more than over. That is due to insulating property and net chain of the glucose oxidase. Moreover, in ultraviolet spectra of the synthetic solution, the adsorption peak at 285nm corresponding to glucose oxidase was decreased. It suggests increase in amount of immobilized glucose oxidase.

This study was carried out to investigate the adsorption characteristics of cationic starches onto BKP, BCTMP and talc. Concentration of the unadsorbed cationic starch contained in the supernatant of the pulp or talc slurries was determined using a spectoscopy method and the adsorption isotherm of cationc starch was constructed. When the equilibrium concentration of the cationic starch was low, almost complete adsorption of the starch onto BKP and BCTMP was observed. This indicates that electrostatic attraction is the main driving force for the adsorption of cationc starches onto pulps. BCTMP adsorbed greater amount of cationic starches than BKP since it contained more anionc functional groups on its surface. The adsorption amount of the cationic starch increased as the cationicity of the starches decreased. Surface charge density of the pulp and starch adsorption increased as the pH of the pulp slurry increased. Adsorption amount of the cationic starch onto talc was lower than that onto the pulp due to its low charge density and hydrophobic surface property.

Influences of sustain voltage on wall charges and wall voltages are experimentally investigated in surface AC plasma display panels(AC-PDPs), in which electrode gap and width are $80\;{\mu}m$ and $270\;{\mu}m$, respectively. The filling gas is Ne-Xe gas mixture, and total pressures 300 Torr. Also it is found that the more amount of Xe mixing ratio makes the less wall charge and voltage for sustain voltage ranged from 140 V to 222 V. The response time has been delayed by adding a small amount of Xe to Ne in comparison with that without Xe. It is also found that the wall charge and voltage are reduced by adding a small amount of Xe to Ne in comparison with those without Xe.

The adhesion and removal of $\alpha$-Fe2O3 particles on the from PET fabric in NPE solution with different ionic strength were discussed in terms of interaction of surface charge of particle and substrate. The adhesion of $\alpha$-Fe2O3 particles to PET fabric and its removal from PET fabric were carried out by using water bath shaker and Terg-O-Tometer under various solution conditions. The ζ potential of PET fiber and $\alpha$-Fe2O3 particles in the detergent solution were measured by steaming potential and microelectrophoresis methods, respectively. The adhesion and removal amount of $\alpha$-Fe2O3 particles on the from PET fabric increased with increasing time of adhesion and removal, and the rates of adhesion and removal were high at the initial stage of adhesion and removal, and then the rates decreased with passing time. The adhesion and removal amount of $\alpha$-Fe2O3 particles on and from PET fabric increased with increasing pH of solution regardless ionic strength. The tendencies and degree of adhesion and removal were very similar regardless interaction of surface charge of particle and fiber. Therefore, in the presence of a surfactant and electrolyte, the influence of interaction of surface charge of particle and substrate on the detergency of particulate soil was small.

We investigated compatibilizing effects of electrical properties such as charge distributions and electrical breakdown in blends of low density polyethylene (LDPE) / polystyrene (PS) with poly [styrene-b-(ethylene-co-butylene)-b-styrene] (SEBS), the triblock copolymer. The blends with $70\;wt\%$ of LDPE and $30\;wt\%$ of PS were prepared through a melt blending in a batch type kneader at a temperature of $220^{\circ}C$ when the SEBS content increased up to $10\;wt\%$. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was investigated for observation of morphology of LDPE / PS blends increasing SEBS contents. The morphological observation showed that addition of SEBS results in the domain size reduction of the dispersed PS phase and a better interfacial adhesion between LDPE and PS phases. Measurements of space charge distributions for blends was carried out with pulsed electroacoustic (PEA) method. It was possible to observe that the amount of charge storage in the LDPE / PS blends decreased wiか increasing of SEBS content. The location of SEBS at a domain interface enables charges to move from one phase to the other via domain interface and results in a indicative decrease in the amount of space charge for the LDPE / PS blends with SEBS. Electrical breakdown strength of these blends was observed. It was found that the maximum breakdown strength of the blend was 51.55 kV/mm. These results were better than 38.38 kV/mm of LDPE used electrical insulator for cables and were caused by crystalinity of blends. Because the crystalinity of blends were lower than LDPE, electrical breakdown strength of LDPE / PS blends is higher than that of LDPE. We evaluated the possibility of these blends for insulating material substituted LDPE.
