  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of treatment temperature and time on the, of easy-care and strength properties of the wet fixation processed rayon fabrics. Viscose rayon fabrics were treated with mixed resins of melamine formaldehyde (MF) and DMDHEU by one bath and two bath wet fixation processes. The MF/DMDHEU mixed resin concentrations were 50/100, 50/150, 100/100 and 100/150(g/1). Magnasium chloride was used as a catalyst. The wet fixation conditions were 24hrs at room temperature,20 mins at $75^{\circ}C$ and 5 mins at $105^{\circ}C$ Wet fixation processed fabrics did not show the difference in the resin add-one, DP ratings and wrinkle recovery angles by the different treatment temperatures and times. DP ratings were in the order of $105^{\circ}C>75^{\circ}C>room$ temp, in one bath and two bath wet fixation. Breaking and tearing strength of one bath processed fabrics showed in the order of $75^{\circ}C>room\;temp>105^{\circ}C$ The breaking strength of two bath processed fabrics showed in the order of $105^{\circ}C>75^{\circ}C>room$ temp. Tearing strength showed in the order of $75^{\circ}c>105^{\circ}C>room$ temp. Abrasion resistances were in the order of $75^{\circ}C>105^{\circ}C>room$ temp. in one bath and two bath processes.

  • To investigate the actual conditions on the living environment of group-homes for the elderly and their living environment, 4 group-homes were surveyed. As the results, conditions of location for the group-home of the elderly looked positive, on the other hand, safety for criminal prevention, accessability and convenient facilities were not on level satisfied. The average area of each space in the group-home indicated that the bed room was $11.21\;m^2$, the living room $28.13\;m^2$, the kitchen $23.59\;m^2$, and the bath room had an integrated type of bath room and toilet $7.63\;m^2$. The physical environments of each space in the group-home were investigated, In bed room, door, windows and illumination were relatively good but safety was extremely inferior. Living room mostly looked good except the doorsill which needs refurbishment. In kitchen, cooking table, windows, illumination, ventilator were somewhat satisfactory but gas-warning device should have been installed. In addition, in bath room and toilet, location, door, window, illumination and finished material were satisfactory. But the stepped difference between the bath room and other space, safety-bar, emergency bell and floor heating system were seriously deteriorated and must be improved for the safety of the elderly. Conclusively, living environment of group-home for the elderly is mainly satisfactory but it was necessary to take a consideration for their safety.

  • Ni coating was carried out by pulse plating at room temperature. So, experimental conditions for Ni-coating were based on Watt's bath, and new additives(propionic acid) were introduced in the Watt's bath electrolyte as $H_3$$BO_3$ alternatives. By adding propionic acid, coating layer demonstrated a good adhesion and uniformity without special pre-treatment of the 316L stainless steel at room temperature. With a decrease of amount of propionic acid and applied average current density, cathode current efficiency increased. Also, edge effect was decreased with decreasing a peak current and increasing a pulse frequency in the same bath condition. It was found that the optimum condition for Ni coating was a current density of 10~20mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at below 500 mA peak current in the $5m\ell/\ell$ propionic acid solution.

  • With 106 detached houses where the aged people live alone, this study was conducted to perform a location survey of their residential environment. The result of this study is summarized as follows: While the surveyed houses' safety, sanitation and convenience appeared to be positive, with respect to the conditions of location, 73% of the surveyed houses did not meet the requirement for comfort. The average area of each space indicated that the bedding room was 12.05$m^2$, the living room 14.71$m^2$, the kitchen 9.06$m^2$, the bathing room 4.05$m^2$, and the rest room 2.59$m^2$. Then, 93.3% of the bedding rooms had the doorsill. Also, 97.2% of the surveyed houses had retrievable space. The form of their living room door showed a hinged door(54.5%) and a sliding door(45.5%) which were similar with each other. The finished material was that wood accounted for 42.6% which was highest. The cooking table form of kitchen was mainly "\ulcorner"-shaped(49.5%) and "\ulcorner"-shaped(48.5%) which were highest, and their average height appeared to be 815mm. The fuel used for kitchen was that gas accounted for 93.3%, while 95.2% of the surveyed houses was not equipped with any gas-warning device. 75.5% had an integrated type of bath room and toilet. In addition, the stepped difference between the bath room and other space was that 70.8% had the difference, but they had no a satisfactory sliding-prevention device(Not for 91.6%) or heating system(Not for 92.9%).stem(Not for 92.9%).

  • Tc-99m labeled sestamibi ($^{99m}Tc$-MIBI) is one of most widely used radiopharmaceuticals for myocardial SPECT imaging. Radiolabeling of $^{99m}Tc$-MIBI is recommended by heating in $100^{\circ}C$ water bath for 15 min. However, the water bath might be a source of contamination. Thus, if radiolabeling of $^{99m}Tc$-sestamibi can be performed at room temperature, then it would be more convenient to use in clinical application. In this study, we performed the radiolabeling of $^{99m}Tc$-MIBI in different temperature conditions or using different instruments to find out the efficient labeling condition. We studied the $^{99m}Tc$-MIBI labeling at room temperature or $100^{\circ}C$ heating block, and checked the labelling yields every 1 min for 10 min using radio-TLC with 2 different eluents-saline and acetone. From the experiment, we confirmed that the $^{99m}Tc$-MIBI can be labeled over 90% yield but not completed at room temperature. However, the $^{99m}Tc$-MIBI labeling was completed when it was performed in the $100^{\circ}C$ heating block. Finally, we proved that heating is essential for complete $^{99m}Tc$-MIBI labelling, furthermore using heating block is also possible instead of water bath.

  • The induction of polyhedroses in the silkworm, Bambyx mari L., was investigated treating the 5th instar larvae just after eodysis with high temperature (hot water bath at 40$^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes or dry heat shock at 40$^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes) and low temperature (5$^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours). The results obtained were as follows; 1. Comparing between the frequency of nuclear and cytoplasmic polyhedroses induced by cold and heat treatments (hot water bath at 40$^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes), the induction ratio of the former is clearly less than that of the latter. But if the larvae tested with cold were left at room temperature (25$^{\circ}C$) for 30-120 minutes till the next hot water bath (40$^{\circ}C$) for 5 minutes and water bath (20$^{\circ}C$) for 5 minutes, treatments, the frequency of induced cytoplasmic polyhedrosis was more than that in the case of cold or hot water bath treatment alone. 2. The frequency of nuclear and cytoplasmic polyhedrosis induced by cold and successive heat (dry heat shock at 40$^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes), left at room temperature (25$^{\circ}C$) ti11 the second treatment, the frequency of nuclear polyhedrosis was less than that of cytoplasmic polyhedrosis. 3. The reaction of nuclear polyhedra to stains also differs sharply from that of the cytoplasmic type. In a smear of nuclear polyhedra on a slide staining with Giemsa solution remains unstained against a stained back ground, in contrast to this, the cytoplasmic polyhedra take up stain readly.

  • In order to dye polyester/cotton blend fabric by one-bath dyeing process with single disperse dye, a novel hetero-bifunctional bridge compound(DBDCBS) was synthesized and utilized. The DBDCBS was designed to contain two different reactive groups such as ${\alpha},{\beta}$-dibromopropionylamido and dichloro-s-triazinyl groups. The ${\alpha},{\beta}$-dibromopropionylamido group shows considerable reactivity towards amines or amino groups at acidic condition and high temperature. In contrast, the dichloro-s-triazinyl group has reactivity towards hydroxyl groups at alkaline condition and room temperature. In order to examine whether as a bridge the compound could combine dyes containing amino groups with cellulosic substrates, disperse dyes containing amino group were tried to dye the cotton fibers pretreated with the DBDCBS compound. By the results, polyester/cotton blends were dyed by one-bath dyeing process with single disperse dye,1,4-diaminoanthraquinone.
