This study was carried out to examine changes in morpholgy and crystallinity of cowpea starch during preparation of chongpo-mook(starch gel food). It was known by photornicroscopy under polarized light and X-ray diffractometry that cowpea starch had lost its crystallinity at the temperature range of 70∼75$^{\circ}C$ It also was obserbed by scanning electron microscopy that overall shape of starch granules was maintained inspite of swelling to considerable extent at the range of 65∼75$^{\circ}C$, however, granules were folded after solubles were extracted out of them above 85$^{\circ}C$. Mechanism of gelation seemed to be formation of junction zones stabilien by groups of weak H-bonds, not by recrystalliztion according to the results of DSC thermogram of reheating of sample pan after cooling and X-ray diffractogram of reheated cowpea starch gel.

Folate loaded WPI (whey protein isolate) nanoparticles were prepared using the cold-induced gelation process. The aim of this work was to investigate the effects of process parameters, such as the concentration of the WPI solution, pH, temperature, etc, on the properties of nanoparticles. The results show that the smallest nanoparticles were obtained when a WPI concentration of 1% was used at a pH of 8.0 (<330 nm). In the case of the concentration of $CaCO_3$, the smallest particles were obtained at a concentration of 5 mM. Alginate produced the smallest mean size with the narrowest particle size distribution, while the largest particles were prepared with k-carrageenan. As the w:o ratio increased, the mean particle size also increased. When the release profile was analyzed, the particles were shown to be stable for more than 6 h at a pH of 1.2, where almost all of the folic acid was released within 2 h in the dissolution media of PBS at a pH of 7.4. Thus, the process parameters appear to be important factors that affect the properties of nanoparticles.

This study investigates the rheological properties of in-situ polymerized solutions of polyacrylonitrile(PAN) and acrylonitrile(AN)-itaconic acid(IA) in dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO) in terms of temperature, concentration, and time. The complex viscosity and storage modulus of the solutions were generally increased with elapsing time, which is ascribable to the three-dimensional pseudostructures formed by strong inter- or intra-molecular attractions through Polar -CN and -COOH groups. The three-dimensional pseudonetworks would lead to gelation of the acrylic solutions in long term. This was more noticeable at higher temperature within the temperature range examined. In the case of 20% solutions one can not observe lower Newtonian flow region in the viscosity curve. Disappearance of lower Newtonian flow region is indicative of heterogeneity of the solution system. Casson Plot of the viscosity data revealed that 20% solutions of PAN and AN-IA copolymer in DMSO clearly demonstrated positive yield stress, ascertaining formation of pseudostructures in the solution systems.

The MLV liposomes have been developed in many drugs and cosmetics fields. The phospholipid base is made from ceramides, cholesterol, cholesteryl ester, lecithin, lanolin ester, and B-sitosterol, and surfactants are made by using (PEG)n-sitosterol(n=5) and K-cetyl phosphate. We made visicles stable by passing samples through Microfludizer and croated multilamellar vesicles to make MLV liposomes similar to the structure of men's skin. In order to make MLV liposomes, we created lipid membrane films which a mixure of phospholipid base and polyol group was reacted above Tc(95$^{\circ}C$) by gelation for 3 hours. As the optimum conditions of Microfluidizer, we figured out 700 bar for the passing pressure of samples, 4$0^{\circ}C$ for its temperature, and 3 times of frequency to pass through samples. Our MLV liposomes is stable on conditions of a low temperature(5$^{\circ}C$) and a high temperature(45$^{\circ}C$), which is not to be split in a large range. We produced our own moisturizing cream which has a good affinity to skin by means of this system.

The effect of novel N-crotyl-N,N-dimethyl-4-methylanilinium hexafluoroantimonate (CMH) curing agent as a thermal latent initiator on thermal behaviors, rheological properties, and thermal stability of diglycidylether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) epoxy cationic system was investigated. From DSC measurements of DGEBA/CMH system, it was shown that this system exhibits an excellent thermal latent characteristic at a given temperature. The conversion and conversion rate of DGEBA/CMH system increased with increasing the concentration of initiator, due to high activity of CMH. Rheological properties of the system were investigated under isothermal condition using a rheometer The gelation time was obtained from the analysis of storage modulus (G'), loss modulus (G"), and damping factor (tan $\delta$). As a result, the reduction of gelation time was affected by high curing temperature and concentration of CMH, resulting in high degree of network formation in cationic polymerization, due to difference of activity. The thermal stability of the cured epoxy resin was discussed in terms of the activation energy for decomposition and thermal factors determined from TGA measurements.ents.

Liquid suppository systems composed of poloxamers and bioadhesive polymers were easy to administer to the anus and mucoadhesive to the rectal tissues without leakage after the dose. However, a liquid suppository containing diclofenac sodium could not be developed using bioadhesive polymers. since the drug was precipitated in this preparation. To develop a liquid suppository system using sodium chloride instead of bioadhesive polymers, the physicochemical properties such as gelation temperature, gel strength and bioadhesive force of various formulations composed of diclofenac sodium, poloxamers and sodium chloride were investigated. Furthermore, the pharmacokinetic study of diclofenac sodium delivered by the liquid suppository was performed. Diclofenac sodium significantly increased the gelation temperature and weakened the gel strength and bioadhesive force, while sodium chloride did the opposite. The liquid suppositories with less than 1.0％ of sodium chloride, in which the drug was not precipitated, were inserted into the rectum without difficulty and leakage. Furthermore, liquid suppository gave significantly higher initial plasma concentrations and faster Tmax of diclofenac sodium than did solid suppository, indicating that drug from liquid suppository could be absorbed faster than that from solid one in rats. Our results suggested that a thermosensitive liquid suppository system with sodium chloride and poloxamers was a more physically stable, convenient and effective rectal dosage form for diclofenac sodium.

For the synthesis of crystalline LAS glass by sol-gel method, the effect of operation conditions including metal alkoxide ratio, nucleating agent composition and heat treatment on the crystalline properties was experimentally investigated. The gelation time and crystallization temperature were proportionally affected by the mole ratio of TEOS in metal alkoxides solution. The addition of $TiO_2$ had an influence on the increasing of the gelation time, but the crystallization temperature was rarely dependent on the adding of nucleating agent. The crystallinity of LAS glass was improved by the nucleating agent under same heat treatment conditions.

In this study, styrene-isoprene-styrene (SIS)-styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) modified asphalt was prepared for waterproof-sheet to measure its properties including softening point, penetration, low temperature flexibility, viscosity and adhesion. Then the properties of SIS-SBS modified asphalt imparted with self-healing were optimized to seek for optimal compositions of SIS and SBS versus asphalt according to response surface methodology (RSM). As the content of SBS or SIS was increased, both properties of softening point and viscosity, measured at high temperature, were increased with a statistical significance. However, the increments of softening point and viscosity per unit content of SBS added, were observed to be greater than those per unit content of SIS added, respectively. It was due to the difference of thermal properties of SBS and SIS at high temperature that the cross-linking degree of SBS was increased by gelation accompanied with the increase of viscosity, while chain-entanglement of SIS was relatively reduced owing to a chain scission of poly(isoprene) blocks causing the decrease of viscosity. To the contrary, SIS-SBS modified asphalt showed a behavior of the least elasticity resulting in both the maximum of penetration and adhesion, measured at room temperature, as well as the lowest low temperature flexibility at the composition of SIS, 4 g and SBS, 8.5 g based on asphalt, 63 g.

Lecithin, a zwitterionic phospholipid, forms spherical reverse micelles in organic solvents such as decane. The addition of multivalent ions like calcium chloride to lecithin organosols induces the transformation of organosols into organogels. A variety of applications of such organogels were found in gelation of fuels, food processing and drug delivery. Here, we investigated the effect of temperature on their rheological properties. In particular, the organogels showed a distinct melting temperature (${\sim}95^{\circ}C$) and their elastic properties decreased with increasing temperature. This is maybe due to the fact that the electrostatic interaction between lecithin and calcium chloride could be weaken with increasing temperature.

Modified phenolics can have a retarding effect on the gelation of wood oil. Modified phenolic resins can be used in media for paint, varnishes, primers, overprinting varnishes, litho, letterpress and rotogravure inks. Varnishes based on rosin phenolic are faster drying, have better durability, are harder and glosser, and have greater resistance to water than ones based on ester gums. These physical properties is concerned with molecular weight distribution of rosin modified phenol resin. This paper was studied about molecular weight distribution of rosin phenolics which were prepared between $130~250^{\circ}C$. The results were as follows: 1) Average molecular weights inereased with increasing reaction temperature. 2) $M_w/M_n$ were from 3.43 to 46.44 with increasing reaction temperature and so the molecular weight distributions were changed from random distribution to broad distribution. 3) The relation ship between intrinsic viscosity and weight average molecular weight was follows: $[{\;}{\;}]={\;}1{\times}{\;}10^{-6}M_w,{\;}M_w=M_w$ 4) Esterification reaction between the acid group of rosin and polyol was started about $230^{\circ}C$$.
