In this study, cross-cultural comparison of sound sensation for Korean traditional silk fabrics between Korea and America was performed and prediction models for sound sensation by objective measurements including sound parameters such as level pressure of total sound (LPT), Zwicker's psychoacoustic characteristics, and mechanical properties by Kawabata Evaluation System were established for each nation to explore the objective parameters explaining sound sensation of the Korean traditional silk. As results, Koreans felt the silk fabric sounds soft and smooth while Americans were revealed as perceiving them hard and rough. Both Koreans and Americans were pleasant with sounds of Gongdan and Newttong and especially Newttong was preferred more by Americans in terms of sound sensation. In prediction models, some of subjective sensation were found as being related mainly with mechanical properties of traditional silk fabrics such as surface and compressional characteristics.

Silk fibroin (SF) was dissolved in calcium chloride/ethanol/water mixture(1/2/8 in mole ratio) at $70^{\circ}C$ for 4h. The dissolved silk fibroin was regenerated by casting the dialyzed solution into films. The films were treated with 50% aqueous solution of methanol for different times, and their antithrombogenicity was evaluated by in vivo tests. In vivo blood tests were made by a method of peripheral vein indwelling suture. It was found that the silk fibroin had a good antithrombogenicity and an absorbability even though the polymer showed foreign body reaction. Finally, the blood compatibilty of silk fibroin films which were subjected to structural change by the methoanl treatment, was examined in connection with their interfacial surface energy, and a correlation between these properties was found to be present.

As the basic study to investigate the mechanism of improvement in the dyeing fastness of natural dyes on silk fabrics the optical behavior of tannin solution, the optimal condition of tannin treatment and the changes of the physical structure of silk fabrics were studied in the treatment of tannin. Results obtained were as follows ; 1.The K/S values of tannin-treated silk fabrics were not changed by tannin content on silk fabrics but yellowing of tannin in treatment condition. 2. As the concentration of tannin was increased in its treating condition, the tannin content and K/S vague of tannin-treated silk fabrics were increased. 3. Because tannin gave rise to yellowing by hydrolysis and oxidation at high temperature, the higher tannin-treating temperature was, the lower the tannin content and K/S values of silk fabrics 4. The tannin content of silk fabric was higher in acidic treating condition and the highest K/S value was showed at pH 5. 5. As the tannin content of silk fabric was increased, the value of ζ -potential of it became negative. 6. As the tannin content of silk fabric was increased, the crystallinity and crystallite size of it were decreased. This meant that the fraction of amorphous region in the fibers increased. And the degree of orientation of it was decreased with the tannin treatment.

무당거미와 나무껍질게거미줄의 열 안정성 및 기계적 성질 등을 측정하고, 그 성질들을 합성 섬유인 아라미드(aramide)와 폴리에스테르(polyester) 등의 측정 결과와 서로 비교하였다. 열 안정성에서 거미줄은 비록 상업용 섬유로 사용되는 아라미드나 폴리에스테르에 비해서는 낮았지만 기계적인 성질에서는 폴리에스테르보다 월등 우수한 결과 값을 보여주었다. 거미줄에 포함되어 있는 수분이 열 안정성과 기계적 성질에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 두 종류의 거미줄을 $100^{\circ}C$의 진공에서 각각 다른 시간 별로 열처리를 하였는데, 1.5시간 동안 열처리를 시킨 후의 열 안정성과 기계적 성질이 최고 값을 나타내었다.

본 연구는 견직물의 촉감을 손상시키지 않는 범위에서 바람직한 방추성을 보유하는 보다 좋은 요소수지가 공법을 개발하기 위하여 수년간에 걸친 보고이다. 특히 본보고는 요소와 결합하는 폴마린양을 극소화한데 특징이 있고 일반요소수지보다도 더욱 우수성을 보이는 반금속성요소수지(Homo Metalic Urea Resin)을 개발하였다는 사실도 첨가하며 본연구에서 얻어진 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 본보고에 수록된 요소수지조성은 폴마린함량을 극소화하였고 조성된 수지에서 거의 폴마린냄새를 인정할 수 없을 정도였으며 이전에 보고된 어느 것보다 가장 소량의 폴마린으로 요소수지를 만들었다. 2. 필자가 최초로 만든 화합물 즉 uric zincchloride와 폴마린을 원료로 하여 새로운 반금속성요소수지(Homo Metalic Urea Resin)를 개발하였다. 이 방법은 합성수지처리와 중앙처리를 동시에 할 수 있는 특징이 있다. 3. 위의 두가지 수지처리에서 방추도, 강연도 및 발키네스 등이 증가되었는데 신규개발한 수지가 더욱 좋은 결과를 보였다. 4. 견방사나 저연사견직물이 생사나 고연사손직물의 경우보다 좋은 방추개선을 보였다. 5. 두가지 수지처리법이 모두 실용상의 경제성이 좋았다. 6. 강력과 신도가 수지처리후 다소 저하되었는데 이것은 수지처리로 가교작용과 증량작용이 일어났기 때문이었다. 7. 특수한 요소수지처리방법으로 양모와 유사한 견사제조법도 개발했다. 이 방법은 요소용액에 침지한 생사를 폴마린가스로 충만된 밀실에 방치해 둠으로서 생사표면에 스케일을 발생하게 한 것이다.

In order to investigate the crystallization in silk fibroin induced by acid treatment and its photo-yellowing reduction effect. silk fibroin were immersed in PH 3.5~4.0 sulfuric acid and 0.01N hydro-chloric acid at 2$0^{\circ}C$, and the changes of crystallinity were measured by infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction. Yellowness index caused by UV irradiation were also observed. The results are as follows : 1. ${\beta}$-form transition occurs when the silk fibroin are immersed at 2$0^{\circ}C$ in pH 3.5~4.0 sulfuric acid and 0.01N hydro-chloric acid. Formation of new hydrogenbond in molecules on the amorphous region induced ${\beta}$-form structure, and increased crystallinity. 2. Crystallization owing to $\beta$-form transition reduced the initial yellowness index by ultraviolet irradiation.

In order to study the properties of safflower yellow colors, thermodynamic parameters and dyeing properties on the silk in several dyeing conditions were investigated. The uv-visible spectra of safflower yellow colors in several solvents show hypsochromic shift with the polarity of solvent but bathochromic shift with increasing acidity of solution. The apparent diffusion coefficients and standard affinities of dyeing increased with the increase of dyeing temperature. The standard heat of dyeing(${\Delta}H^0$), entropy change(${\Delta}S^0$) and activation energy($E_{act}$) were calculated to be - 1.144kcal/mol, -7.498(5$0^{\circ}C$)~-3.804(9$0^{\circ}C$)cal/molㆍdeg and 0.123kcal/mol, respectively. The concentration of safflower yellow colors in the silk fiber increased with dyeing temperature, time, concentration of colors and acidity of initial dyebath. Silk fabrics were dyed bright yellow by pre-mordanting with tin chloride. Lightfastness of silk fabrics pre-mordanted by tin chloride was not excellent.

Over the past decades, silk sericin (SS) received increasing attention in the academic and industrial fields. In nature, SS acts as a glue that holds the two strands of silk fibrils together. However, recent works suggest that SS might have a more diverse role during the silk spinning process, such as stabilizing the SF in the silk gland. On the other hand, the sericulture industry has been trying to find novel applications for SS discarded from the silk fabric manufacturing process. Recovery and refining of SS would be the first step of the recycling of SS. Using a proper solvent SS could be shaped into various forms, such as spherical beads, microparticles, fibers, and films. Moreover, the applicability of these SS materials has been investigated in various fields such as cosmetics, templates for nanomaterials, drug delivery, heavy metal adsorption, and enzyme immobilization.

Recently, many studies have been undertaken on the wet spinning and electrospinning of silk because wet-spun fibers and electrospun webs of silk can be applied in the biomedical and cosmetic fields owing to the good biocompatibility of silk. The rheological properties of silk solution are important because they strongly affect the spinning performance of the silk solution and the structures of resultant fibrous materials. Therefore, as a preliminary study on the effect of solvent composition on the rheological properties of silk fibroin (SF) solution and structure of the resultant film, in the reported work, methanol was added to the SF formic acid solution. A small amount of methanol (i.e. 2%) added to the SF formic acid solution significantly altered the rheological properties of the solution: its shear viscosity increased by 10 folds at low shear and decreased on increasing the shear rate, demonstrating shear thinning behavior of the SF solution. Dynamic tests for the SF solution indicated that the addition of 2% methanol altered the viscous state of the SF formic acid solution to elastic. However, the molecular conformation (i.e. β-sheet conformation) of the regenerated SF film cast from formic acid remained unchanged on the addition of 2% methanol.
