Polypropylene filaments were spun from a mixture of PP chips of two different Melt Flow Index (MFI) (3 MFI and 35 MFI). A significant difference was observed in the melting characteristics of the resultant filaments from either of the individual components as observed from the DSC. The main difference being in the degree of melting achieved at any temperature in the initial stages of the melting range, which was found to be higher in case of the filaments spun from the b]end. These filaments were then thermally bonded using silicon oil bath and heated roller method. Subsequently the bond strength of the filaments was measured on the Instron Tensile Tester using the loop technique. The values of the world strengths obtained from the blend were compared with those made from the individual component. It was found that the bond strength of the bonds obtained from the blended filament at a given temperature was higher than that of the bonds made from the filaments of either of the individual components, which is also suggested by the DSC curves. The difference in the bond strength was found to be as high as 25% in case of the blend with 60:40 composition ratios of the 3 MFI and 35 MFI components respectively.

Recently, PTFE-polymide composites are being used self-lubricating parts for industrial field. Thus, this study is mainly concerned with friction and wear properties for the piston ring of non-lubricating air compressor which made of PTFE-polymide composites. The friction and wear test was carried out for the different composition ratio under the atomsphere room temperature and constant load of 7.69N and their friction and wear properties were compared with each other at various sliding speed. notable results are summarized as follows. PTFE 100% showed that friction coefficient was almost same values at 0.94 and 1.88m/s but the value was decreased at 2.83m/s because the friction temperature is higher than low speed. PTFE 80%-PI 20% showed the lowest mean friction coefficient at 2.83m/s. PTFE 20-PI 80% showed the highest friction coefficient at 0.94m/s and the value was decreased at high speed but the value is higher than other materials except PTFE 100 %. PI 100% showed the highest friction coefficient at 0.94 and 1.88m/s becuase adhesive wear mainly occurred that speed. PTFE 100% showed highest specific wear rate on the whole. Specific wear rate of PTFE 80%-PI 20% was almost the same value with PTFE 20%-PI80%. PI 100%showed the lowest value at high sliding speed because the friction surface was thicken and carbonated by high friction temperature.

In this study, we examined the effects of egg yolk powder added to flour dough on the lipid oxidation of fried products during storage. The flour dough containing the egg yolk powder (0, 5, and 10%) was fried in sunflower oil at $180^{\circ}C$ for 90 sec. The fried products were then stored at $60^{\circ}C$ for 9 days in the dark. The lipid oxidation of the fried products was evaluated by fatty acid composition, peroxide values (POV), conjugated dienoic acid (CDA) contents, and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values. The color and phospholipids (PL) contents of the fried products were also determined by colorimetry and high performance liquid chromatography, respectively. The addition of egg yolk powder to the dough decreased the POV, CDA contents, and TBA values of the fried products during storage. Although POV, CDA contents, and TBA values significantly increased in the products without egg yolk powder during storage, little change was observed in the products with egg yolk powder. The PL contents remained relatively constant in the flied products added with egg yolk powder during storage. The lightness and greenness of the fried products decreased, and the yellowness increased, as the storage time increased. The results clearly indicate that the addition of egg yolk powder to the dough improved the lipid oxidative stability of the fried products during storage in the dark, and the PL in the egg yolk might have contributed to the improvements in lipid oxidative stability.

Super water-absorbent resins were prepared by inverse suspension copolymerization of sodium acrylate, acrylamide and 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate using N, N'-methylene-bis-acrylamide as cross-linker. For the suspension copolymerization, monohexadecyl phosphate was employed as the dispersing agent, cyclohexane as the dispersing medium and potassium persulfate as the initiator. The dependence of water-absorption capacity on the amount of crosslinking agent, oil/water ratio, degree of neutralization and the composition of the copolymer were systematically investigated. Furthermore, the swelling kinetics of the super water-absorbent copolymer was carried out. The absorption of the resins is more than 1800 g/g for deionized water and 100 g/g for 0.9% NaCl solution, respectively. The copolymers showed an increased salt resistance and enhanced water retention of soil.

In this study, the following results were obtained by analysis of electric properties with FT-IR, DSC, XRD, and SEM, in the range of temperature 30~160℃ and frequency 0.1~200 kHz, when filling agent (0~100 phr) and silicone oil (0~12 phr) were added to raw silicone rubber. In the case of 100 phr mixed samples, the relative dielectric constant εr gradually decreased from 4.3 to 3.96 as frequency increased, and the dielectric loss tan δ decreased to 0.01 at 300 Hz, then increased to 0.022 at 30 kHz, then decreased to 200 kHz. The FT-IR analysis identified the same binding structure according to the chemical composition of added silica (SiO₂). Through DSC analysis, we could determine the change of heat quantity and the glass transition temperature of each specimen. In the XRD analysis, it was found that the images SiO₂, TiO₂, and Fe₂O₃ appeared for specimens with 0%, 50% and 100% filling agent. Finally, the SEM analysis confirmed that particles of 0.5 to 1.5 ㎛ size with silica (SiO₂) mixing were dispersed evenly.

The response of crossbred Holstein milking cows to the neutralized urea-treated rice straw feeding was investigated. Rice straw was treated with 6% urea for at least 21 days and further with sulfuric acid for overnight to complete the neutralization. The neutralized straw was then sun-dried and its feeding value was compared with that of the dried non-neutralized urea-treated straw. They were fed to the cows with concentrates either by the ration formulation based on the nutrient requirements for milk production recommended by NRC or by the traditional way in which straw was fed ad libitum and concentrates at 1 kg/2 kg of milk production. The results showed that milk production as well as milk composition of cows were not different between neutralized and non-neutralized straw. The feeding of the neutralized straw could significantly reduce the supply of protein-rich feed such as soybean oil meal, and it was demonstrated that ammonium sulfate in the neutralized straw could be utilized as effective as the plant origin protein. The results also suggested that if the traditional feeding method is applied to the dairy cattle, protein content of the supplementing concentrates should be increased to meet the requirement.

This study was conducted to investigate the growth rate and hematological changes of the rats when supplemented with the powdered tubers of chufa(Cyperus esculentus) for four weeks. Nutritional composition of the powdered tuber of chufa is crude lipid(22.3%), crude protein(7.0%), crude fiber(8.8%), ash(5.1%), nitrogen free extract(48.9%) and water(7.9%), respectively. Sixteen Sprague-Dawley male $rats(173.1\pm3.8$ g) were randomly divided into two groups, control group and chufa group. Rats in control group were fed with American Institute of Nutrition(AIN)-76 diet and rats in chufa group were fed with modified AIN-76 diet contained the powdered tubers of chufa at the proportion of 26% of total diet in order to substitute the oil content of AIN-76 diet. Final body weight, gain of body weight and feed intake of rats in chufa group were larger than those of rats in control group significantly. But feeding efficiency of rats in chufa group was less than that of rats in control group significantly. All hematological values such as hemoglobin concentration and hematocrit and serological values such as glucose, total protein, albumin, AST, ALT, cholesterol, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol and triglyceride were not significantly different between control and chufa group, respectively. Thus powdered tuber of chufa showed good tastefulness and did not provoke any adverse effect to the health indicators of rats. Therefore tuber of chufa would be used as new adequate feed resource for animals and possibly as suitable food resource for humans.

The thermal behavior, morphology, ester-interchange reaction of Poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT)/poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) melt blends were investigated over the whole composition range(xPTT/(1-x)PET) using a twinscrew Brabender. The melt blends were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy ($^{13}{C-NMR}$), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Single glass transition temperature ($T_g$) and cold crystallization temperature ($T_cc$) were observed in all melt blends. Melt blends were found to be due to the ester-interchange reaction in PTT/PET blend. Also the randomness of copolymer increases because transesterification between PT and PET increases with increasing blending time This reaction increases homogeneity of the blends and decreases the degree of crystallinity of the melt blends. In PTT-rich blends, mechanical properties decrease with increase of PET content compared with that of pure PTT. And, in PET-rich blends, tensile modulus decreases with increase of PTT content, but tensile strength and elongation is similar to that of pure PET.
