This research presents an improvement of the physical and mechanical properties of composite board (com-ply) made of Oriented Strand Board (OSB) coated with wood veneer of Pine (Pinus merkusii), Avocado (Persea Americana) and Mahogany (Swietenia mahogany). 1.5 mm thick veneers of those three wood types were adhered to the surface of OSB using two adhesive types: epoxy and isocyanate. The adhesive with the glue spread of $250g\;m^{-2}$ applied using single glue line was spread and then cold pressed with the pressure of $15kg\;cm^{-2}$ for 3 hours. The research result showed an improving dimension stability of com-ply, but not found on all parameters of physical property test. The moisture content seemed to be influenced by the com-ply type, yet not related to its thickness swelling, water absorption and linear expansion. The exception took place in the parallel linear expansion when immersed for 2 hours. The highest to the lowest increases of MOE and MOR were consecutively found on OSB coated with wood veneer of Pine, Mahogany and Avocado. However, the increases were statistically insignificant. The highest increasing screw hold power was found at the com-ply type AE (avocado veneer and epoxy adhesive) that was by 28%.

This study was carried out to evaluate the stability of archival documents produced using papers. The properties of archival documents depend on the type of fillers of papers that are used such as fiber, non cellulose fiber, and mineral. The physio-chemical characteristics of archival documents were analyzed by employing acid hydrolysis against cellulose fiber substances. Fibers of Korean hand-made (Hanji), flex, and cotten papers showed higher pH and the degree of polymerization (DP) than wood fiber and mechanical fiber. Mechanical pulp containing 12.8% of lignin showed the greatest decrease of DP due to acid hydrolysis, and this resulted in increase of degree of aging. The filler found to clay and talc did not contain metal such as $Fe^{+2}$, $Fe^{+3}$, and $Cu^{+2}$. The alkaline metals such as Mg, Ca, and Ti showed greater resistance to acid hydrolysis.

A newly developed functional fiber for textile, Tencel, which is known to have some advantages over wood fiber such as fibrillation, absorbency and so on, was examined to see the possibility of a raw material for hanji. Hanji was manufactured by the conventional handmade method using Tencel of three different fiber lengths with three different levels of mixing ratio of Tencel and paper mullberry fiber, and their physical and calligraphic properties were evaluated and compared with one another. It was needed to develop more efficient beating methods than conventional one such as valley beating for Tencel to be used effectively as a raw material for hanji. It was found out by image analysis that the calligraphic properties of hanji could be improved by mixing of 10 to 20% of Tencel of relatively short-length fiber with paper mulberry.

To examine how the difference of molecular weight distribution of cellulase influenced the beating process according to surface pore size of the fiber, high molecular weight enzyme and low one were applied to soft wood pulp, hard wood pulp, cotton linter pulp. Some enzymes with the distribution of low molecular weight penetrated into cellulose in the proportion of surface pore size and the results were negative as like : the low viscosity, decrease of refining Yield, decrease of fine fibers content and so on. But in cotton linter pulp in the small surface area, the fiber softness was increased and it had a positive result that the paper intensity was high. Other enzymes with the distribution of high molecular weight had an enzyme reaction on the most surfaces of cellulose. They were effective in eliminating the fuzz of hydrophile fine fibers and the freeness was increased.

This study was carried out to investigate the sheet properties of Morus Hanji, made by different pulping methods, such as alkali, alkali-peroxide and sulfomethylated pulping, and different stocks composed to bast and whole stalk fibers. Two species of Morus, M. alba and M. lhou, were used. Pulp yield of the whole stalk parts, its brightness and opacity were higher than those of bast part. In particular sulfomethylated pulp has higher brightness of $62{\sim}63%$, than other pulps(average brightness $30{\sim}40%$). In mechanical properties, paper made of bast fiber has higher strength than those of the whole stalks. Hanji made from M. lhou, whole stalk, and sulfomethylated pulp gave better sheet formation and higher strength than those of the others. Hanji from M. alba bast fiber and whole stalk pulps were not so good sheet properties.

The ESEM could be used in investigating the fibrous networks developed during handsheet-forming processes with the exception of the stages relating to the actual dispersion of the fibers and the drying of formed sheets. Also the cross-sectional images of swollen fibers were generated with the ESEM but the information given by the images was rarely fresh compared to the CLSM images. The LTSEM was extremely useful in generating images of the microfibrillar structure of a wet fiber with great resolution. However, pretreatment required in the LTSEM chamber was somewhat tedious due to the time consumed in sublimation of ice and sputter coating. For observation of lamellar structure of a hydrated fiber, the LTSEM exhibited greatly detailed structure with high resolution. Finally ESEM and LTSEM should be used in a finite field such as observation of surface morphology in detail.

Chemical composition and enzymatic saccharification characteristics of hemp woody core were investigated by their chemical composition analysis and enzymatic saccharification with commercially available cellulases (Celluclast 1.5L and Novozym 342). Hemp woody core have higher xylan and lower lignin contents than its bast fiber. Based on hemicelluloses and lignin composition, hemp woody core is similar with hardwood biomass. However, cellulose was more easily converted to glucose than xylan to xylose and this trend was confirmed both hemp woody core and yellow poplar. Hemp woody core biomass shows higher saccharification than yellow poplar (hardwood biomass) based on cellulose and xylan hydrolysis. With easier enzymatic saccharification in cellulose and xylan, and similar chemical composition, hemp woody core have better biorefinery feedstock characteristics than hardwood biomass.

본 논문은 필자가 미국 미쉬간대학에 유학중 실시된 연구로서 동대학 목재가공학과에 설치된 소형 목재인공건조장치를 사용하여 일정한 건조조건(건구 온도 $150^{\circ}F{\risingdotseq}65.5^{\circ}C$, 습구온도 $1250^{\circ}F{\risingdotseq}51.7^{\circ}C$, 관계습도 48%, 평형함수율 6.9%)하에 공기 순환속도를 매분당 250ft., 400ft, 및 650ft.로 변경할 때 얻어지는 건조속도를 측정하고, 시간당 건조율을 산출하여 비교 검토한 것이다. 본 실험에 사용한 수종은 북미산소나무 Northern white pine (Pinus strobus L.)로서 시편의 크기는 길이 60cm, 넓이 12.5mm(5in.), 두께 18.7mm(3/4in.)이며 공시목의 표면은 증발조건을 균일히 하기 위하여 포삭하였으며, 마구리(end grain)에는 end coating 하였다. 또한 공기순환속도 측정은 상기대학에 비치된 velometer를 사용하였다. 1. 목재의 섬유포화점(함수율 30%) 이상에 있어서 공시목의 건조율은 건조실내 공기순환속도의 증가에 따라서 증가된다. 즉 공시목의 건조율 증감은 공기 순환속도에 대략 비례한다. 그러나 섬유포화점 이하에 있어서는 공기순환속도의 증강은 건조율 증감에 거의 영향을 이치지 아니한다(그림 1, 2 참조). 2. 실험한 건조조건하에 있어서는 공시목의 초기 함수율이 높을수록 높은 건조율을 얻을 수 있다. 즉 공시목의 초기 함수율(MC30% 이상)이 동일하지 아니한 경우에도 공기순환속도를 증가하면 건조 최종기에 있어서 비교적 빨리 대체로 같은 함수율의 공시목을 얻을 수 있다(실험한 초기 함수율, 건조조건 및 공기순환 속도등은 심한 건조 결함을 유발하지 아니하였음). 3. 본연구 결과에 의하면 공시목의 건조율은 섬유포화점(대략 MC30%)에 있어서 현저한 변화를 나타내고 있다. 즉 공시목의 함수율에 대한 건조율 곡선은 그림 3으로 표시된 바와 같이 섬유포화점 이상에 있어서는 건조율 곡선은 X축(MC)에 대하여 요(凹)형(concave)을 나타냈는데, 섬유포화점 이하의 함수율 범위 30%에서 20%에 있어서는 건조율 곡선은 X축에 대하여 철(凸)형(convex)을 나타냈으며 함수율 20% 이하에 있어서는 재차 심한 요(凹)형을 나타내고 있음을 알 수 있다. 이와감은 결과를 요약표시한 원문 그림4에 있어서, 건조율 곡선의 반곡점은 대략 섬유포화점인 MC 30%와 MC 20%에 위치하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 이와같이 섬유 포화점으로 알려져 있는 MC 30%와 20%에 있어서 건조율이 급변하는 반곡점 즉 한계점을 표시하는 것은 다음과 같은 야유에 의한 것으로 고려된다. 즉 세포막에 흡수된 결합수의 증발은 세포강, 세포간격 및 기타의 미세한 공간에 존재하는 자유수의 증발보다 훨씬 곤란하므로, 함수율 30%에서 20%의 범위에 있어서는 철(凸)형을 나타낸다. 즉 함수율 30%에서 20% 의 범위에 있에서 세포막의 모세관 응축수(capillary-condensed water)의 증발은 대략 동일한 감소율을 나타내나, 공시목의 함수율이 20%에 접근됨에 따라서 한층 강한 결합상태하에 있는 수분(표면 결합수 및 그 부근에 있는 수분)이 증발하게 되나, 그와 같은 수분의 증발은 한층 곤란하므로 함수율 20% 이하에 있어서 건조율곡선은 재차 요(凹)형을 표시하는 것으로 사료된다. 이상의 관계를 요약 표시한 원문 그림 4에 있어서, 반곡점을 가지지 아니한 점선 곡선 AC 와 2개의 반곡점을 가지는 실선곡선 BD를 비교하면, BD곡선은 AC곡선보다 함수율범위 30%에서 20%에 있어서 그 건조율은 현저히 감소되고 또한 D점을 반곡점으로 해서 그 건조율은 가일층 감소되고 있음을 알 수 있다. 이상을 요약하면 생재에서 함수율 30%(섬유포화점)까지는 큰 건조율을 표시하니 함수율 범위 30%에서 20%에 있어서는 그 건조율은 점감되고 함수율 20% 이하에 있어서는 그 건조율은 현저히 감소됨을 표시한다.

A technology using continuous fiber soil reinforcement system for the creation of ecological restoration in a damaged area has been developed and introduced. The continuous fiber soil reinforcement system (Geofiber system) is an environmentally friendly slope protection technique that continuous fiber soil reinforced layers are constructed with green plantation on cut slope. The characteristics of this system in terms of the strength and hydraulic performance, and the vegetation were investigated in this study. The main objectives of this comparative study was to quantify the potential contribution of geofiber system for the revegetation on the cut slope in a damaged area. A Geofiber system was constructed to reinforce the lower layer of slopes and revegetation methods including wood chips were carried out on the upper layer by machineries. The results of monitoring during 3 years on cut slopes were as follows : 1) All the quadrat existed in the proper range for vegetation. 2) Species richness was 4.4 (site-1) and 18.5 (site-2) respectively. 3) The averaged coverage rates of quadrats was 90%. It is remarkable that the continuous fiber soil reinforcement system would be capable of applying to a damaged area and also would serve maintaining a healthier environment for floras. However, it behooves to continue monitoring on succession of vegetation for ecological restoration.
