To examine the effect of heat treatment temperature in finishing process on PET/PBT Fabric, PET/PBT Fabrics were treated at different relaxing temp., pre-set temp., and final-set temp.. The dimensions such as thickness and density were measured, and the handles were evaluated by Kawabata system. In relaxing which was wet heat treatment, thickness and bulkiness were increased, and NUMERI, FUKURAMI, SOFUTOSA, and THV also were increased but KOSHI was decreased with elevating temperature. With elevating pre-set temp., thickness and bulkiness were decreased, but KOSHI was increased. NUMERI, FUKURAMI, SOFUTOSA, and THV were the best at 180$^{\circ}C$ pre-set treatment. In final-set which was dry heat treatment like pre-set, thickness, bulkiness, NUMERI, HUKURAMI, SOFUTOSA, and THV were decreased, but KOSHI value was increased with elevating temperature. Therefore the best heat treatment condition was 130$^{\circ}C$ relaxing, 180$^{\circ}C$ pre-set, and 160$^{\circ}C$ final-set. And the handle of PET/PBT Fabric was affected much more by relaxing temp. than pre-set temp. and final-set temp.

Arcobaeter butzleri is one of the aerotolerant Campylobaeter species which cause persistent diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting in human. The aim of this study was to determine the growth and survival of A. butzleri under the heat treatment or freezing storage condition. In heat treatment, two Korean isolates of A. butzleri were treated at 40 to $80^{\circ}C$ for various times. In freeze treatment, two Korean isolates of A. butzleri were kept at 4, -20 and $-70^{\circ}C$ from 1 to 15 d. The survivability of the A. butzleri Korean isolates significantly decreased at higher than $60^{\circ}C$ heating condition but it didn't show any significant difference in $40^{\circ}C$ treated group. Under the cold stress condition, survivability of A. butzleri were significantly decreased at $-20^{\circ}C$ storage. Like other foodborne pathogens, survivability of A. butzleri was controlled by heat and freezing treatment.

This paper is to investigate the fatigue crack growth of plasma-sprayed coating steels according to heat treatments. The experimental materials are carbon steels(substrate: S45C) with plasma-sprayed coating layers of Ni-4.5%Al and $TiO_2$. The fatigue test is conducted on compact tension specimen by a servo-hydraulic fatigue testing machine. The specimens are heat-treated at $400^{\circ}C\;and\;800^{\circ}C$, respectively. Loading condition is a constant amplitude sinusoidal wave with a frequency of 10Hz and a load ratio of 0.1. The fatigue crack growth length is automatically measured by a compliance method. In the case of non-heat treated specimens, the fatigue crack growth rates of both substrate and coating specimen are almost same. The crack growth rates of substrates and coating steels by heat treatment are larger than those of the non-heat treated one, because the ductile property increase by heat treatment. In ${\Delta}K<18MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, the crack growth rates of the heat-treated specimens are slightly taster than non-heat treated one. But the both heated and non-heated one are almost same in ${\Delta}K>18MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$.

The objective of this study is to develop the mechanical properties of AlSiCu aluminum alloy by the two-step solution heat treatment. The microstructure of gravity casting specimen represents a typical dendrite structure having a secondary dendrite arm spacing (SDAS) of 40 mm. In addition to the Al matrix, a large amount of coarsen eutectic Si phase, $Al_2Cu$ intermetallic phase, and Fe-rich phases are generated. The eutectic Si phases are fragmented and globularized with solution heat treatment. Also, the $Al_2Cu$ intermetallic phase is resolutionized into the Al matrix. The $2^{nd}$ solution temperature at $525^{\circ}C$ might be a optimum condition for enhancement of mechanical properties of AlSiCu aluminum alloy.

The aim of this study was to investigate effect of heat stress on expression levels of plasminogen activators (PAs) related mRNAs and proteins, and changes of PAs activity in porcine endometrial explants. The endometrial explants (200 ± 50 mg) were isolated from middle part of uterine horn at follicular phase (Day 19-21) and were pre-incubated in serum-free culture medium at 38.5℃ in 5% CO₂ for 18 h. Then, the tissues were transferred into fresh medium and were cultured at different temperature (38.5, 39.5, 40.5 or 41.5℃) for 24 h. The expression level of urokinase-type PA (uPA), type-1 PA inhibitor (PAI-1), type-2 PAI (PAI-2), and heat shock protein-90 (HSP-90) mRNA were analysis by reverse-transcription PCR and proteins were measured by western blotting. The supernatant were used for measurement of PAs activity. In results, mRNA and protein levels of HSP-90 was higher in 41.5℃ treatment groups than other treatment groups (p < 0.05). The expression of uPA, PAI-1, and PAI-2 mRNA were slightly increased by heat stress, however, there were no significant difference. Heat stress condition suppressed expression of active uPA and PAI-2 proteins (p < 0.05), whereas PAI-1 protein was increased (p < 0.01). Although PAI-1 protein was increased and active uPA was decreased, PAs activity was greatly enhanced by exposure of heat stress (p < 0.05). These results suggest that heat stress condition could change intrauterine microenvironment through regulation of PAs activity and other factors regarding with activation of PAs might be regulate by heat stress. Therefore, more studies regarding with regulatory mechanism of PAs activation are needed.

The effects of pre-heat treatment(Q/T) on microstructure and hardness of SCM435 structural steel nitrided by micro-pulse plasma was investigated. The quenching and tempering temperatures for obtaining matrix hardness of SCM435 steel on range of HRC30 to HRC40 desired for machine parts were about $860^{\circ}C$ and $500^{\circ}C$ respectively. The case depth of SCM435 nitrided at $480^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours was independent of pre-heat treatment condition and was approximately $150{\mu}m$. However, hardness and compactness of nitrified layer on Q/T treated specimen were more heigher than annealed specimen. The case depth increased linearly with the increase of nitriding temperature, however, the hardness of nitrified layer decreased with the temperature. Phase mixture of ${\gamma}^{\prime}$-phase($Fe_4N$) and ${\varepsilon}$-phase($Fe_3N$) were detected by XRD analysis in the nitrified layer formed at optimum nitriding condition, and only single ${\gamma}^{\prime}$-phase was detected in the nitrified layer formed at higher nitriding temperature such as $540^{\circ}C$. The optimum nitriding temperature was approximately $480^{\circ}C$ which is lower than tempering temperature for preventing softening behavior of SCM435 matrix during nitriding process and the surface hardness of nitrified layer obtained by optimum preheat treatment condition was about Hv930.

The effects of alloying element and the condition of heat-treatment on the strength of squeeze-cast Al-3.0 wt%Si alloy were investigated. The strength of the alloy without grain refinement was increased with increase Cu content upto 3.0 wt% and rather decreased beyond that. The tensile strength of the alloy with grain refinement increased with Cu content upto 3.0 wt% and not changed beyond that. The strength of the alloy without grain refinement increased with the Mg content. The tensile strength with grain refinement increased with the Mg content upto 0.50 wt% and then decreased beyond that. The strength of the grain refined alloy increased by individual and simultaneous additions of Cu and Mg and the maximum strength was obtained with Al-3.0 wt%Si-4.5 wt%Cu-0.50 wt%Mg alloy. The optimum heat-treatment condition for this alloy was obtained.

Effect of $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ precipitation and heat-treatment on hydrogenase which was extracted from the cytoplasmic fraction of the phototrophic purple sulfur bacterium Thiocapsa roseopersicina NCIB 8347 was studied. Crude enzyme extract was prepared by centrifugation($28,000{\times}g$, $400,000{\times}g$) after sonication of cells grown under photosynthetic condition for 96 hrs. Various conditions of $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ precipitation and heat-treatment were examined and the effect of protein concentration was analyzed by SDS-electrophoresis between the treatments. Optimum conditions for $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ precipitation and heat-treatment for evolution hydrogenase activity were 40-60% saturation and $60^{\circ}C$ for 20 min, respectively, which exhibited the specific hydrogenase activity of 0.78 U/mg-protein. Specific hydrogenase activity was decreased to 31.6% when the heat-treatment at $60^{\circ}C$ increased from 20 min to 5 hrs.

This experiment was carrid out to know the effects of heating and serum on hydroxyl radicals in embryonic mouse forebrain (cerebrum) culture. The heating to mouse embryonic cerebrum cells in culture was done in a water bath at 43${\circ}C$ for 60min. After that, two supernatants were prepared at 20 hrs and 48 hrs respectively after heat treatment to the brain cells. To find out the heating effects on neuron cells, mouse cerebrum cells (13 embryonic day) were cultured in hydroxyl radical generation system composed of 20mU/ml glucose oxidase (GO system), using condition of normal culture media (MEM, 5% serum, 5% $CO_2$or supernatant prepared after heating at 43${\circ}C$ for 60 min in a water bath. Supernatant prepared at 20 hrs after heat treatment had a greater protective effects against hydroxyl radical than supernatant prepared at 48 hrs after heat treatment . Otherwise, the protective effect of serum against hydroxyl radicals in the cultured brain cells is higher than that in the heat treatment. These results indicated that serum in culture media reduced cytotoxicity of hydroxyl radicals in mouse forebrain culture, also that heat treatment showed the protective effects against hydroxyl radicals generated with 20mU/ml GO system in mouse forebrain culture.

Heat treatment conditions and the formation of microstructures were studied for improving the transformation-induced plasticity(TRIP) effect of retained austenite and mechanical properties of Fe-0.2%C-1.5%Si-1.5%Mn sheet steel. An excellent combination of elongation about 30% and high strength over 760MPa was achieved by processing of intercritical annealing and isothermal holding Intercritical annealing the sheet steel produced fine particles($1{\sim}2{\mu}m$) of retained austenite which were stabilized due to C enrichment by subsequent holding in bainite transformation range. Heat treatment conditions were depended on the shape and distribution of second phases as well as the volume fraction and stability of retained austenrte. In this work, the heat treatment condition of optimal strength-elongation balance was obtained by holding the steel at $400^{\circ}C$ for 200sec, after intercritical annealing at $790^{\circ}C$ for 300sec.
