현재 사용 되고 있는 Cu CMP slurry에서 pH 적정제의 역할은 slurry의 연마 거동을 결정 하는 중요한 요소이다. 일반적으로 사용 되고 있는 적정제로는 $NH_4OH$, KOH가 있다. 구리 CMP용 슬러리내에서 CMP 공정 중에 과산화수소 $(H_2O_2)$의 영향에 관한 연구는 있으나, 과산화수소의 농도 (vol %) 변화에 따라서 pH적정제가 하는 역할과 반응이 CMP 공정중에 미치는 영향에 관해서 연구된 바 없다. 이 논문에서는 pH 적정제가 과산화수소의 농도에 따라서 산성, 중성, 염기성에서 어떠한 변화를 일으키는지에 관해서 dynamic etch rate과 removal rate을 비교 하였고, static etch rate을 이용하여 Cu 표면이 etching 되는 속도를 비교 하였다. 그 결과, 산성과 중성에서는 $NH_4OH$와 KOH의 경향성은 비슷하였으나, 염기성에서는 KOH를 첨가한 경우 변화가 나타나지 않았다. 따라서, pH가 염기성으로 갈수록 과산화수소의 저 농도에서 $NH_4OH$의 영향이 더 커짐을 알 수 있었다.

The changes in pH, temperature, R-values and ${\mu}-calpain$ and its inhibitor activity of M. longissimus from Hanwoo steer were investigated at 1, 3, 9 and 24h postmortem. The pH and temperature of M. longissimus were significantly (p<0.05) decreased during 24h postmortem time, and were 6.50 and $31.99^{\circ}C$, respectively, at 3h postmortem. $R_{248}\;and\;R_{250}$ were increased, but $R_{258}$ was decreased after 9h postmortem time (p<0.05). Calpain I and calpastatin activity were decreased after 3h and 9h postmortem time, respectively (p<0.05). pH and temperature showed high positive correlations with $R_{258}$ (r=0.967 and r=0.970, respectively), calpain I (r =0.956 and r=0.954, respectively) and calpastatin (r=0.978 and r=0.986, respectively) but had high negative correlations with $R_{248}$ (r=-0.982 and r=-0.973, respectively) and $R_{248}$ (r=-0.983 and r=-0.976, respectively). from these results, the change of postmortem metabolism of M. longissimus from Hanwoo steer likely occurred after 9h postmortem time. However, the further study on the establishment of metabolism from Hanwoo between postmortem 3h and 9h are necessary to produce Hanwoo beef with high acceptance in meat quality.

The experiments were carried out in the variation of current density, pH, temperature, and duty cycle to investigate the influence of electroplating parameters on the properties of Ni-Fe invar alloys. When the current density and temperature were changed, the composition of invar alloy was varied, however, duty cycle and pH hardly affected on the composition of electrodeposited alloys. However, as the duty cycle was increased, microstructure was changed and the decrease of hardness was also observed.

There have been many efforts to use anionic hydrogels as oral protein delivery carriers due to their pH-responsive swelling behavior. The dynamic swelling behavior of poly(methacrylic acid-co-methacryloxyethyl glucoside) [P(MAA-co-MEG)] hydrogels was investigated to determine the mechanism of water transport through these anionic hydrogels. The exponential relation $M_t/M_{\infty}=kt^n$ was used to calculate the exponent, n, describing the Fickian or non-Fickian behavior of swelling polymer networks. The mechanism of water transport through these gels was significantly affected by the pH of the swelling medium. The mechanism of water transport became more relaxation-controlled in the swelling medium of pH 7.0 that was higher than the $pK_a$ of the gels. Experimental results of time-dependent swelling behavior of the gels were analyzed with several mathematical models. Using ATR-FTIR spectroscopy, the effect of ionization of the carboxylic acid groups in the polymer networks on the water transport mechanism was investigated.

This study was carried out to reveal the influence of discharge change on matters and stream water quality between pH, EC and dissolved matters obtained by observation of long-term and short-term on stream water quality and separated runoff components from stream water by using HYCYMODEL. From January in 1998 to September in 1999, it was estimated by relationships of character of water quality and discharge for the experimental watershed in Mt. Palgong. The results were summarized as follows : 1. Annual average pH values of stream water in 1998 and in 1999 were 6.48(6.22~6.89) and 6.52(5.75~7.18), respectively. The observed annual average pH values were maintaining identical values in general, but pH values decreased continuously during the four months after thinning in the experimental watershed. So thinning is suspected of the major cause for the decrease. 2. Annual average EC values of stream water in 1998 and in 1999 were $26.69(17.95{\sim}33.5){\mu}S/cm$ and $25.19(17.5{\sim}33.8){\mu}S/cm$, respectively. The observed annual average EC values were maintaining identical values in general. 3. As a result of the comparison of average dissolved ions of rainfall and stream water, $Na^+$, $Mg^{2+}$, $Ca^{2+}$, $Cl^-$, $NO_3{^-}$, and $SO_4{^{2-}}$ showed minus values between incomings and outgoings. $Na^+$ and $NO_3{^-}$ among the dissolved ions of stream water showed the highest concentration out of cations and anions respectively. 4. By the change of pH value in stream water due to rainfall events, pH value decreased with increasing runoff as pH value increased before and after peak flow. 5. By the change of EC value in stream water due to rainfall events, EC value decreased with increasing runoff of first rainfall as EC value changed with runoff before and after peak flow. 6. As the runoff increased, the concentration of $Na^+$, $Ca^{2+}$, $K^+$, total cation, $Cl^-$, and $SO_4{^{2-}}$ in stream water lowered. On the other hand, the runoff decreased, their concentration in stream water tended to get high. But in terms of $NO_3{^-}$ and total anion, they turned out vice versa. $Mg^{2+}$ produced no reaction. 7. The base flow among runoff components separated by using HYCYMODEL influenced greatly on pH, EC, concentration of cation and anion.

Thermal stability of the major color component, cyanidin 3-glucoside, isolated from Korean pigmented rice (Oryza sativa var. Suwon 415) were investigated to explore possible application of value-added natural colors as food additives. The anthocyanin showed red and blue color with maximum absorption peaks at 511 nm and 572 nm in acidic (pH 2.0) and alkaline (pH 9.0) buffer solutions, respectively, and the thermal degradation reactions were carried out with different temperature ranges at $50{\sim}95^{\circ}C$. Degree of degradation was determined with UV/Vis spectra which indicate characteristic absorption patterns with sharp isosbestic points at 350 nm (pH 2.0), and 275, 310, and 405 nm (pH 9.0). Thus the reaction follows simple first-order kinetics. The anthocyanin was very stable against heat at acidic pH and relatively stable at alkaline pH with half-life values of 50.3 hr and 0.6 hr at $70^{\circ}C$, respectively. The activation energies and Arrhenius frequency factors of the pigment were 26.9 kcal $mol^{-1}\;and\;6.0{\times}10^{11}\;s^{-1}$, at pH 2.0, and 15.2 kcal $mol^{-1}\;and\;1.4{\times}10^{6}\;s^{-1}$, pH 9.0, and respectively.

The surface of $Li[Ni_{0.35}Co_{0.3}Mn_{0.35}]O_2$ cathode was modified by $[Li,La]TiO_3$ coating using pH controlled coating solution. At low pH values (acidic solution), cathode powders, which is oxides, have a positive surface charge, whereas, they have a negative surface charge at high pH values. As a result, their charge could affect the formation of the coating layer on the surface of cathode powder. To determine the optimal pH value, the surface coating of the pristine powder was carried out at various pH values of the coating solution. The surface morphology of coated samples was characterization by SEM and TEM analyses. Impedance analysis and cyclic voltammogram presented that internal resistance of the cell was dependent upon the pH of coating solution.

Corrosion fatigue fracture with change in the grain size of M.E.F. dual phase steel is investigated in 3.5% NaCI aqueous solution at pH 2, 4, 6, 9, and 11. Generally speaking, decrease in corrosion fatigue life is strongly dependent on decrease in pH and slightly on the grain size. For the B material with the big grain size, the fatigue life is small due to its large reduction ratio of corrosion fatigue life. The influence of grain size on the reduction ratio of corrosion fatigue life is large at pH 11-6. Whi9le at pH 4-2 the reduction ratio of corrosion fatigue life only depends on the corrosion effect. The larger grain size and the lass pH result in the greater influence on corrosion fatigue crack propagation rate. As pH decreases, the plateau portion in the crack propagation rate curves of the B material are distinct. Crack propagation rate curves become slow down at high .DELTA.K range because crack closure effect by minute corrosion products inside crack causes the oxidation corrosion action less effective for a certain period of time. In A material with small grain size, fatigue life is increased in proportion with increase of martensite intergranular which brings forth restraining the crack propagation decreases crack propagation rate. Corrosion pit which is created in the surface of specimen is found at pH 6,4 and 2 which is noticeable and the unevenness of the surface of the specimen becomes severe as pH decreases. The unevenness of corrosion fatigue fracture surface is severe as the effect of pH increases i.e. as pH decreases. In proportion with increase in the grain size and decrease in pH, the aspect of brittle fracture becomes evident.

Collapsed perflurostearic acid (PFS) films were prepared on the different pH and the various metal ion ($Na^+$, $Ca^{2+}$, $La^{3+}$) containing subphase using Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) trough. The degree of ionization of collapsed PFS film formed from floating monolayer has been determined by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The intensity of C = O of -COOH peaks of collapsed PFS decreased with increasing pH of subphase. The order of ionization of collapsed PFS on the subphase of the same pH was $La^{3+}$ > $Ca^{2+}$ > $Na^+$. The degree of ionization of collapsed PFS on the Deionized (D.I.) water subphase is above 50% even at subpahse pH 3, which is much higher degree of ionization than that of stearic acid.

This study was attempted to investigate the occurrence and the characteristics of ascorbic oxidase in cucumbers. Ascorbic acid oxidase was isolated from cucumbers and concentrated using ammonium sulfate precipitation. The results of this study are as follows ; 1) Ascorbic acid oxidase activity was detected in whole cucumber homogenate. 2) Highest amounts of ascorbic acid destroyed after 10 minutes' incubation of ascorbic acid oxidase with its substrate. 3) The optimum pH and temperature of this enzyme were found to be pH 6.5 and $40^{\circ}C$, respectively. 4) Ascorbic acid content in cucumber juice prepared using the cold water $(4^{\circ}C)$ was higher than that made with water at $30^{\circ}C$. 5) When orange juice ( pH 3.4 )was added, ascorbic acid destruction was completely ceased. (The ascorbic acid oxidase was inactivated at pH 3.9) Decreasing the temperature and pH are recommended to achieve maximum stability of ascorbic acid in preparing cucumber juice.
