The purpose of this research was the optimization of Cirsium setidens blanched at various conditions by response surface methodology. Conducted to investigate the change of Cirsium setidens DPPH radical scavenging activity, total phenolic compounds and flavonoids during the blanching processes. With two parameters such as blanching time and temperature, response surface methodology and central composite design was used to study the combined effect of blanching time (70 to 170 seconds) and blanching temperature (70 to $99^{\circ}C$). The changes of DPPH radical scavenging activity, phenolic compounds, and flavonoids on blanching process conditions such as temperature and time were evaluated. After blanching, total phenolic compound was determined from 13.00 to 35.48 mg/ml. total flavonoids was determined from 2.31 to 8.38 mg/ml. DPPH radical scavenging activity was determined from 42.10 to 67.14 %. The optimum conditions were determined to be blanching temperature of $85^{\circ}C$ and blanching time of 150 sec.

Response surface methodology (RSM) was used for the microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) of the effective components of grape seed, such as its antioxidative and nitrite-scavenging abilities. Microwave power (2,450 MHz, 0-160W), ethanol concentration (0-100%), and MAE time (1-5 min) were used as independent variables (Xi) for the central composite design to yield 16 different MAE conditions. The optimum MAE conditions were predicted for the dependent variables of the extracts, such as the total phenolic content ($Y_1$) antioxidative ability ($Y_2$), and nitrite-scavenging ability ($Y_3$), depending on different microwave powers, ethanol concentrations, and MAE times. The determination coefficients ($R^2$) of the regression equations for the dependent variables ranged from 0.8024 to 0.9498. The maximal values of each dependent variable were predicted at different MAE conditions, as follows: 3.19% total phenolic content at 142.32W, 44.30% ethanol, and 4.36 min, and 1.22 antioxidative ability at 84.44W, 56.60% ethanol, and 3.28 min. More than 99.5% nitrite-scavenging ability was predicted at pH 1.2-3.0, 30.80-106.58W, 49.32-55.18% ethanol, and 3.72-4.58min, respectively. The results indicated that the total phenolic content and anti oxidative ability showed a higher correlation with each other in that they were more influenced by microwave power than by the other variables, while the nitrite-scavenging ability was largely influenced by the ethanol concentration.

A coupled thermomechanical analysis of composite structures in pyrolysis and ablation environments is performed. The pyrolysis and ablation models include the effects of mass loss, pore gas diffusion, endothermic reaction energy, surface recession, etc. The thermal and structural analysis interface is based upon a staggered coupling algorithm by using a commercial finite element code. The characteristics of the proposed method are investigated through numerical experiments with carbon/phenolic composites. The numerical studies are carried out to examine the surface recession rate by chemical and mechanical ablation. In addition, the effects of shrinkage or intumescence during the pyrolysis process are shown.

This paper deals with the study on injection with EPDM(Ethylene propylene dien ter polymer) the gap which narrow, long, and tubular between an ablative composite tube and a steel motor case. Small size motor assembly was designed and manufactured for man-portable air defense propulsion system. Motor assembly is consisted with steel tube, ablative composite tube and insulation rubber. Ablative composite tube was made of carbon/phenolic prepreg by rolling process and insulation rubber was made of EPDM by TPM(Trans-power molding) process. To select the insulation rubber material, we tested ablative insulation property and degradation property at first and we tested fluidity, adhesive property and hardness of EPDM rubber. Finally we designed TPM process to manufacture motor case assembly and the motor case assembly was examined by non-destructive test(X-ray).

Reaction bonded si-SiC composites were prepared by silicon infiltration technique at temperature of 1$600^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes in vaccum atmosphere. The microstructure and mechanical properties of Si-SiC composites were investigated and characterized. UF-15 and SE-10 as SiC powders, phenolic resin and carbon black as carbon source, and metallic silicon powder as molten Si source were used as starting materials. New SiC crystallines nucleatd and grown by reaction of Si and C were detected by TEM and SEM-EDS. The bonding between new and original SiC was found to be strong. But the wetting of SiC by unreacted metallic Si and the rapid grain growth of new SiC decreased density and fracture toughness. Fracture toughness and modulus of rupture of Si-SiC composite were about 3.2 MPa.m1/2 and 480 MPa, respectively.

Two-dimensional carbon/carbon preforms made of PAN-based carbon yarn and phenolic resin were densified with pyrolysis of propane by pulse chemical vapor infiltration where repeated the cycle of gas introduction residence and evacuation. Maximim density increment was 14% when infiltration temperature and time were 100$0^{\circ}C$ and 21.25 hrs respectively. The distribution of deposits of pyrocarbon by this process has been occurred uniformly in the bottom middle and top of carbon/carbon composite preform Pulse CVI with residence is most effective in increasing density and shortening infiltration time among isothermal CVI and pulse CVI with and without residence.

SiC(p)-TiC(p) composites were prepared by gas pressure sintering technique.

Composition with O-3 connectivity were fabricated from PZT and phenolic resin powders. These composites were investigated for dielectric and pizoelectric properties with PZT-polymer interface porosity variation. The interface porosity dependence of dielectric and piezoelectric properties was especially discussed by porosity factors. The interface porosity dependence of piezoelectric constant was larger than that of dielectric constant. It was considered that the interface pore plays the role of a stress buffer. Thus the local stress applied on PZT particles in the composite was remarkably diminish.

As part of the recent low-energy policy, insulation standards for buildings are increasing every year. In addition, the conventional styrofoam heat insulation material has a problem in that the thickness of the heat insulation material to achieve the standard heat transmission rate is rapidly increased. Although the risk of spreading the structure vulnerable to fire due to insufficient spacing between buildings due to thickened insulation is increasing, the high cost of high efficiency insulation is difficult to solve. On the other hand, it is known that the method to be used as a formwork using insulation is excellent in cost reduction effect by reducing the amount of formwork used and simplifying the subsequent insulation work. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the strength characteristics of multi - layered insulation materials with appropriate strength by reducing the thickness of the insulation by appropriately combining high performance phenolic foam insulation and styrofoam insulation.

In spite of unparalleled combination of essential material properties for brake linings and clutch facings, replacement for asbestos is seriously called for since it is a health hazard. Once asbestos is replaced with other material then composition and properties of brake pad changes. In certain cases hardness of the material may be high enough to affect the rotor material. In this study, hardness of the brake pad has been controlled using suitable reinforcement materials like glass, carbon and Kevlar pulp. Brake pad formulations were made using CNSL (cashew net shell liquid) modified phenolic resin as a binder, graphite or cashew dust as a friction modifier and barium sulphate, talc and wollastonite as fillers. Influence of each component on the hardness value has been studied and a proper formulation has been arrived at to obtain hardness values around 35 on Scleroscopic scale. Friction and wear properties of the respective brake pad materials have been measured on a dynamometer and their performance was evaluated.
