Although various theories have been presented on the mechanism of setting retardation of plaster in addition to organic admixtures. The purpose of this paper is that Hydration studies of plaster of paris in the presence of carboxylic acids under alkalinity are examined in the coordination chemistry. Setting of plaster of paris is retarded by the addition of carboxylic acids except oxalic acid. And setting of plaster of paris contained 5 wt% of Ca(OH)2 is also retarded by the addition of above-mentioned carboxylic acids. The degree of retarding effect under alkalinity is found to be a function of the number of the functional group and the length of carbon chain of carboxyl acids. These reasons are attributed to the soluble complex formation, that is calcium complex formation between calcium ion and carboxylic acids. The author's proposal was confirmed by the results of electrical conductivity measurement. The formation of calcium complex was surpported by IR spectra.

In this study, fly ash of a fluidized bed boiler produced in a power plant was stabilized by hydration and carbonation reaction. Then, each raw material was pulverized by two kinds of grinding equipment (Planetary mills and pot mills); the degree of grinding and the agglomeration behavior were observed. It was found that there were changes of specific surface area and particle size distribution according to grinding time. The surface of the raw material was observed using an optical microscope. As a result, agglomerates of about 75 ㎛ or more due to electrostatic phenomenon were formed as the grinding time became longer; it was confirmed that the crushing efficiency slightly increased with use of antistatic agent.

The effect of poly[2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine] (pMPC) on the skin permeation property was investigated by performing in vitro skin permeation study of a model drug, nicotinic acid (NA). Effect of pMPC polymer in donor solution on skin permeation rates was evaluated using side-by-side diffusion cells. Also, the structural alterations in the stratum corneum (SC), inter-lamellar bilayer (ILB) and dermis layers in pMPC-treated and -untreated skin sections were investigated with transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The permeation profile of NA without pMPC in donor solution showed biphasic mode: initial $1^{st} phase and 2^{nd}$ hydration phase. The sudden, more than 10-fold increase in flux from the initial steady state (43.5 $\mu g/cm^2$/hr) to the $2^{nd}$ hydration phase (457.3 $\mu g/cm^2$/hr) suggests the disruption of skin barrier function due to extensive hydration. The permeation profile of NA with 3% pMPC in the donor solution showed monophasic pattern: the steady state flux (10.9 $\mu g/cm^2$/hr) without abrupt increase of the flux. The degree of NA permeation rate decreased in a concentration-dependent manner of pMPC. TEM of skin equilibrated with water or 2% pMPC for 12 h showed that corneocytes are still cohesive and epidermis is tightly bound to dermis in 2% pMPC-treated skin, while wider separation between corneocytes and focal dilations in inter-cellular spaces were observed in water-treated skin. This result suggests that pMPC could protect the barrier property of the stratum corneum by preventing the disruption of ILB structure caused by extensive skin hydration during skin permeation study.

The fineness degree of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC henceforth) usually used in Korea's construction sites, is designated as over 2,800㎠/g. But the higher the fineness, the surface area of hydration reaction on water increases as well, resulting in large early age strength and high-intensity; so the trend is to prefer a high degree of fineness. But from a pore-space filling perspective, fine-particled cement is not always beneficial to intensity. Therefore in this study artificial modifications were given to cement fineness to analyze the effect of various fineness changes on the liquidity, air quantity and intensity of lean mixture cement mortar. As a result, the greater the degree of fineness, the better the cement was, with fine particle+OPC having the most satisfactory results due to consecutive particle distribution.

Dried black soybeans were soaked in water at the temperature range of $4^{\circ}C-100^{\circ}C$ and in the solution having various concentration of salt and sugar, in order to investigate their effects on water absorption characteristics. The hydration rate was determined by the method of weight gain during soaking. The times required to reach specified degrees of hydration were reduced logarithmically by increase of temperature, with showing a break point in their Z-values at $60^{\circ}C$. The temperature effect on hydrations of black soybeans was higher at the temperature below $60^{\circ}C$. Increase of NaCl or sucrose concentration in soaking solution reduced the hydration rate. The Z-values were changed at the concentration of 25% for sucrose and 16% for NaCl. The activation energy for hydration of 30%-50% was found to be 5.7-7.2Kcal/mole. The higher activation energy was required to reach higher degree of hydration.

The shrinkage mechanism of high strength concrete is different from that of normal concrete. The shrinkage of normal concrete is subjected to evaporate moisture in concrete, but most shrinkage in high strength concrete is caused by chemical reaction. To analyze shrinkage of concrete exactly, it is necessary to divide drying shrinkage with autogenous shrinkage in terms of degree of hydration, especially in concrete with low W/C ratio. The proposed method can provide a rational basis for prediction of shrinkage in high strength concrete structure.

In this research, it used cement powder and reduction slag, which generates high hydration heat in hydration reaction without heat cure below $-5^{\circ}C$ degree. Purpose of final research is preventing freezing and thawing by making the compressive strength 5MPa in 3days below zero temperature due to own heat of concrete. and it is the result of physical characteristic and thermal property evaluation of reduction slag. Because reduction slag generates high hydration heat, compressive strength development is excellent. By generating highly hydration heat by $C_{12}A_7$ and $C_3A$ in reduction slag, compressive strength is developed in low temperature. In case of displacing only reduction slag without $SO_3$, it is indicated that quick-setting occurs by shortage of $SO_3$. For preventing quick-setting, gypsum is used essentially. According to this research result, in case of using reduction slag and gypsum as a ternary system, compressive strength developed 5MPa in 3 days below zero temperature. It is identified to prevent early frost damage of concrete below zero temperature.

The purpose of this research is to verify the performance of hardening accelerator in cement paste through mechanical performance evaluation and micro structure analysis on hardening accelerator for development of super high early strength concrete. The research results showed that hardening accelerator produced $Ca(OH)_2$ when hydrated with cement, enhancing the degree of saturation of Ca ion by using differential thermal analysis. Moreover, porosity was reduced rapidly as capillary pores were filled by hydration products of $C_3S$. According to the experiment using hydration measurement testing, when 1% and 3% of accelerator were mixed, hydration rate increased toward the second peak point compared to high early strength cement, before the first peak point disappeared. It turned out that adding accelerator accelerated the hydration rate of cement, especially $C_3S$. The shape of C-S-H is shown depending on the amounts of accelerator added and the production and age of $Ca(OH)_2$ by using SEM to observes hydration products. Therefore, it's evident that hardening accelerator used in this research increases amounts of $Ca(OH)_2$ and accelerates $C_3S$, it is effective for the strength development on early age.

Water absorption of the major kernels(7 and 10mesh sizes) of naked barley differing in pearling degrees at $25-50^{\circ}C$ was investigated. The time to reach equilibrium moisture content was reduced by half upon removal of over 20% of the outer layer of the kernel. Water absorption rate and diffusion coefficient of naked barley of 5% pearling degree at $40^{\circ}C$ were faster about 1.5 and 2.8 times than those of unpearled one. The activation energy of hydration for unpearled naked barley was 11.5kcal/mole, which was decreased by approximately 0.4kcal/mole upon increasing the pearling degree by 5%.
