  • Changes in shear force value, transverse sections, myofibrils and intramuscular connective tissue of bovine skeletal muscle exposed to the combination of high-pressure up to 400 MPa and heat (30 and $60^{\circ}C$) were studied. The shear force value decreased by pressure-heat treatment up to 200 MPa at 30 and $60^{\circ}C$, and then slightly increased over 200 MPa at $30^{\circ}C$. Shear force values of treated muscles were lower than those of untreated ones. Gaps between muscle fibers in the untreated muscle were a little clear, and then they became very clear in the treated muscles up to 200 MPa at 30 and $60^{\circ}C$. However, the gaps reduced significantly over 200 MPa at $30^{\circ}C$. The remarkable rupture of I-band and loss of M-line materials progressed in the myofibrils with increasing pressure applied. However, degradation and loss of the Z-line in myofibrils observed in the muscle treated at $60^{\circ}C$ was not apparent in the muscle treated at $30^{\circ}C$. The length of the sarcomere initially contracted by pressure-heat treatment of 100 MPa at $30^{\circ}C$ seemed to have recovered with increase of the pressure up to 400 MPa. In the muscle treated at $60^{\circ}C$, the length of sarcomere gradually decreased with increase of the pressure up to 400 MPa. In the treated muscles, changes in the honeycomb-like structure of endomysium were observed and accelerated with increase of the pressure. A wavy appearance clearly observed at the inside surface of endomysium in the untreated muscles gradually decreased in the treated muscles with increase of the pressure. Tearing of the membrane was observed in the muscles treated over 150 MPa at $30^{\circ}C$, as observed in the sample pressurized at 100 MPa at $60^{\circ}C$. The roughening, disruption and fraying of the membrane were observed over 200 MPa at $60^{\circ}C$. From the results obtained, the combination of high-pressure and heat treatments seems to be effective to tenderize tough meat. The shear force value may have some relationship with deformation of intramuscular connective tissue and myofibrils.

  • The dyeing of polyester fiber with two different disperse dyes (Disperse Red 60 and Disperse Yellow 54) was carried out using supercritical carbon dioxide ($SCCO_2$) as a dyeing medium at temperatures ranging from $50^{\circ}C$ to $90^{\circ}C$ and at pressures from 15 MPa to 30 MPa. The dye uptake of Disperse Red 60 on polyester fiber was found to increase with temperature at constant pressure and $SCCO_2$ density (700 kg/$m^3$). At $90^{\circ}C$ and 30 MPa, the dye uptake on polyester fiber increased with dyeing time and the saturation concentration of Red 60 was attained within 240 min, while a longer dyeing time was required for Yellow 54 to reach its saturation concentration. When dyestuff mixtures with mixing ratios of 0.01 to 9.0 (Red 60/Yellow 54) were used, the uptake ratio of the two dyes was found to be proportional to 0.26 power of their mixing ratio. Dyed fibers showed an orange color and the depth of the color depended upon the mixing ratio of the dyestuffs.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the effect of different steam condition and dehydration condition on physicochemical characteristics of Olbyeossal made from Waxy rice. All samples were steamed at $95-100^{\circ}C$ for 60 min or at $121^{\circ}C$ for 20 min and then were dehydrated using hot air 45, 60, $80^{\circ}C$ and sun-dried to achieve moisture contents 13-15%. Initial pasting temperature of Olbyeossal was the lower than that of nontreatment sample by parboiling. The combination in steaming $95-100^{\circ}C$ and hot drying at $45-60^{\circ}C$ was showed appropriate pasting properties compared with other condition. The hardness of Olbyeossal was significantly affected by steaming and dehydration condition. The hardness of Olbyeossal showed the higher value for steaming at $121^{\circ}C$ than $95-100^{\circ}C$. The water binding capacity (WBC) and swelling power (SP) were higher steaming at $121^{\circ}C$ than $95-100^{\circ}C$. No significant differences on WBC and SP of Olbyeossal by dehydration condition were observed. As the sensory evaluation results, the combination in steaming at $121^{\circ}C$ and hot-air drying at 45 or $80^{\circ}C$ led to increase preference for appearance, color, taste and overall acceptability. These results indicate that steaming and dehydration condition were affecting factor on physicochemical characteristics of Olbyeossal.

  • Pasteurization of low salt dongchimi juice was studied for the effect of heating temperature and time on total viable counts and some physicochemical and sensory properties. The juice was prepared by fermentation of the radish at $20^{\circ}C$ in 0.5% NaCl solution. Heating the juice (pH 3.8) at $60{\sim}100^{\circ}C\;for\;5{\sim}30$ min caused little changes in pH and total acidity while the lightness (L value) was decreased and the turbidity, a and b values of color were increased as the heating temperature and time increased. The total viable counts of microorganisms was significantly decreased to 18 at $60^{\circ}C$ and 6 at $70^{\circ}C$ after 30 min heating and was not detected after heating at 90 and $100^{\circ}C$ for 10 min. The sensory test showed that heating up to $70^{\circ}C$ for 20 min caused a little cooked off-flavor. After storage of the pasteurized juices at $30^{\circ}C$ for 10 days, the pH, total acidity and color were changed little while the unheated juice changed significantly. The total viable counts of microorganisms was also remained initial level after pasteurization. Therefore pasteurization at $60^{\circ}C$ for 30 min or $70^{\circ}C$ for 20 min was recommendable in the aspects of storage stability and quality characteristics.

  • In one dyeing system of silk/synthetic blend fabrics (polyester, nylon, acetate) with acid dyes/disperse dyes, dyeability and desorptibility of disperse dyes on silk fabric and transfer from dyed silk fabrics to synthetic fabrics by color difference were examined. When silk dyed with C.I. Disperse Red 19 and C.I. Disperse Red 60 at 10$0^{\circ}C$ for 60 minutes, color difference of dyed silk were $\Delta$E=56.72, $\Delta$E=47.65 for blank silk, respectively. The desorption rate of the dyed silks were measured in boiling bath with and without dye-free synthetic fibers. The desorption rate of dyed silk was effected by affinity of synthetic fabrics contained. When silk dyed with Red 19 and Red 60 was reduced at 10$0^{\circ}C$ for 60 minutes, the decolouration rates of dyed silk were 75% and 40%, respecdtively.

  • We have fabricated vertical type organic thin film transistor using $C_{60}$ as a n-type active material to improve the problems of conventional OTFTs. In general, it can be argued that the characteristics of organic transistor were influenced by carrier mobility and density. We have used several kinds of metals as source and gate electrodes to optimize the device characteristics using $C_{60}$. In addition, we have examined the feasibility of fabrication of organic light-emitting transistor (OLET) using MEH-PPV as an emission layer.

  • Organic photovoltaic effects were studied in a device structure of ITO/CuPc/Al and ITO/CuPc/$C_{60}$/BCP/Al. A thickness of CuPc layer was varied from 10nm to 50nm, we have obtained that the optimum CuPc layer thickness is around 40nm from the analysis of the current density-voltage characteristics in CuPc single layer photovoltaic cell. From the thickness-dependent photovoltaic effects in CuPc/$C_{60}$ heterojunction devices, higher power conversion efficiency was obtained in ITO/20nm CuPc/40nm $C_{60}$/Al, which has a thickness ratio (CuPc:$C_{60}$) of 1:2 rather than 1:1 or 1:3. Light intensity on the device was measured by calibrated Si-photodiode and radiometer/photometer of International Light Inc(IL14004).

  • Organic photovoltaic properties were studied in $CuPc/C_{60}$ and $ZnPc/C_{60}$ heterojunction structure by varying the organic layer thicknesses. Current density-voltage characteristics of organic photovoltaic cells were measured using Keithley 236 source-measure unit and a 500 W xenon lamp (ORIEL 66021) for a light source. From the analyses of current-voltage characteristics such as short-circuit current density, open-circuit voltage and power conversion efficiency, optimum thickness of the organic layer were obtained.

  • It is well established that halogenated fullerene derivatives act as synthetic intermediates for further substitution via replacement with nucleophlies. In the present work, systematic studies were carried out on the synthesis of bromofullerenes under different experimental conditions. The effect of reaction time on the product formed was observed. We observed the formation of new compound of bromofullerenes in a different stoichiometric ratio i.e., $C_{60}Br_{14}$; in addition to previous reported bromofullerenes in the stoichiometric ratio of $C_{60}Br_6$, $C_{60}Br_8$, and $C_{60}Br_{24}$. The new derivative of bromofullerene was isolated and well characterized by various analytical techniques like FT-IR, TGA, DSC, and elemental analysis. In this paper, detail of the synthesis and characterization of the bromofullerene prepared are described. The yields obtained were better than those reported previously.

  • 등방성 피치계 탄소섬유를 Co$_{2}$gas중에서 등온산화시켜 활성탄소섬유를 제조하였다. 산화된 섬유의 비표면적은 BET장치를 이용하여 측정하였다. Burn-off가 증가하여도 반응속도는 크게 감소하지 않았으며, 80$0^{\circ}C$와 90$0^{\circ}C$에서 산화된 섬유의 비표면적은 40%-60%의 burn-off에서 급격히 증가하다가 60%이상에서 감소하였다. 110$0^{\circ}C$에서 산화된 시편은 40%이상 burn-off되어도 비표면적은 크게 증가하지 않고 60%를 지나서도 계속해서 표면적이 증가하는 현상을 나타내었다. 100$0^{\circ}C$에서 60.4%의 burn-off가 일어난 산화섬유의 비표면적은 3,614$m^2$/g로 가장 큰 값이 얻어졌다. 등방성 탄소섬유는 미세한 흑연결정립들이 무질서한 배향을 하고 있으며, 미세기공벽으로 작용할 수 있는 결정립층이 많기 때문에 활성탄소섬유 제조를 위한 원료로 적합하다고 판단된다.
