The degrees of retrogradation (DR) for 50% rice flour gels kept at $4^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ for the 6-day storage period at 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0% (w/w, on dry weight basis) levels of lipid additives (sucrose fatty acid ester, SE1670; soybean oil) were measured by ${\alpha}$-amylase-iodine method, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffractometry. The DRs were higher in rice flour gels stored at $4^{\circ}C$ than those stored at $20^{\circ}C$. The sucrose fatty acid ester and soybean oil reduced the retrogradation of rice flour gels, but the effect was higher in samples stored for 1 day. The DR decreased more effectively in the addition of SE1670 than that of soybean oil In case of SE1670, the change of enthalpy by DSC showed similar patterns with the degree of retrogradation by ${\alpha}$-amylase method; however, it was not the case for soybean oil. The intensity of peak at $2{\theta}=16.7^{\circ}$ in X-ray diffraction pattern was reduced with lipid additives but it was not clear.

Effect of amylose content on the physical properties of resistant starches (RS) from autoclaved maize starches (with starch:water=1:3.5, at $121^{\circ}C$) which were repeated up to 4 times heating-cooling cycles, were investigated by water uptake, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Amylose content of waxy maize starch (Amioca), common maize starch (PFP), high amylose starch(Amaizo, Amylomaize VII) were 0%, 29%, 50%, and 72%, respectively. Yield of RS increased as amylose content increased. Water uptake of all kinds of native starch was higher than that of RS, but lower than that of autoclaved starch. By SEM, RS showed some small particles on surface but the size of particles was different with amylose content. Single endothermic transition peak exhibited at $40{\sim}70^{\circ}C$ in autoclaved Amioca and PFP (crystalline melting of amylopectin) and at $132{\sim}169^{\circ}C$ in autoclaved Amaizo and Amylomaize VII(crystalline melting of amylose) by DSC. RS from all kinds of autoclaved starches except Amioca showed single endothermic peak over $155^{\circ}C$ but the enthalpy was not related to amylose content.

This study was carried out to investigate the influences of hydrocolloids on suppression of retrogradation in the Korean rice cake. Hydrocolloids were influenced to the textural characteristics of the Korean rice cake. In particular arabic gum and carrageenan had the effect of suppressing the retrogradation. Cohesiveness of the Korean rice cake added with hydrocolloids was shown to be high compared to control in organoleptic characteristics. Hydrocolloids exhibited slightly effective in retarding surface color change of the Korean rice cake. Onset temperature of gelatinization in thermal characteristics showed somewhat low in case of addition of arabic gum into the Korean rice cake and was followed by carrageenan, guar gum, gelatin and locust bean gum in onset temperature of gelatinization order. All samples added with hydrocolloids had low values in change of melting enthalphy and their range was 12.8 ∼ 17.7 J/g. The Korean rice cake added with arabic gum was lowest in melting enthalphy. The recrystallinity of the Korean rice cake added with arabic gum was greatly low compared to rice cake without hydrocolloids. Melting spreadability of the Korean rice cake added with arabic gum or carrageenan was superior in thermal characteristics. The value of exponent of Avrami was 0.97 ∼ 1.12 in study of Avrami equation. In conclusion carrageenan and arabic gum would have a suppressive effect of retrogradation in the Korean rice cake.

It is unable to derive the standard emf ($E^{\circ}$) of the cell at high pressure from the conventional method. However, when the concept of the complete equilibrium constant($K{\circ})$) is available to the conventional Nernst equation, it is possible to get the standard emf of the cell at high pressure(complete Nernst equation). Moreover, the other thermodynamic properties, such as the net change of solvation number(k), the compressibility of solvent(${\beta}$), ionization constant(K), the standard free energy change(${\Delta}G^{\circ}$), the standard enthalpy change(${\Delta}H^{\circ}$) and the standard entropy change (${\Delta}S^{\circ}$) of the cell reaction at equilibrium state have been also obtained. In this experiment, the emf of the cell; 12.5 % Cd(Hg)│$CdSO_4(3.105{\times}10^{-3}M),\;Hg_2SO_4│Hg$ have bee measured at temperature from 20 to $35^{\circ}C$ and at pressures from 1 to 2500 atms. The emf of the cell increased with increasing pressure at constant temperature, and did with increasing temperature at constant pressure. The net change of solvation number(k) of the cell reaction was 41.96 at $25^{\circ}C$, and kept constant value with pressure, while, K and ${\Delta}S^{\circ}$ increased with pressure, but whereas ${\Delta}G^{\circ}$ and ${\Delta}H^{\circ}$ decreased. Since the standard emf of the cell at high pressure can be calculated from the complete Nernst equation, the theory of chemical equilibrium could be developed with at high pressure as well as at the atmosphere.

The x values and electrical conductivity of the nonstoichiometric compound NbO$_x$ have been measured in a temperature range 700$^{\circ}C$ to 1100$^{\circ}C$ under oxygen partial pressure of 2 ${\times}$ 10$^{-1}$ ∼ 1 ${\times}$ 10$^{-5}$ atm. The NbO$_x$ is a stoichiometrical compound of Nb$_2$O$_5$ under oxygen partial pressure higher than 1.0 ${\times}$ 10$^{-2}$ atm at the above temperature range. The x values were found to vary between 2.48491 and 2.49900 in a temperature range 700$^{\circ}C$ to 1100$^{\circ}C$ under oxygen partial pressure lower than 1 ${\times}$ 10$^{-3}$ atm. The enthalpy of the formation for x' in NbO$_{2.50000-x'}$(${\Delta}H_f$) increased of 15.98 to 17.26 kcal/mol under the conditions. The electrical conductivity (${\sigma}$) of the oxide varied from 10$_4$ to 10$_1$ ohm$_1$cm$_1$ in the above conditions. The activation energy for the conduction was about 1.7 eV. The oxygen pressure dependency of the conductivity (or 1/n value) was about -1/4. The nonstoichiometric conduction mechanism of the oxide has been discussed with the x' values, the ${\sigma}$ values, and the thermodynamic data.

The solubilities of the n-propyl iodide in nitrobenzene and m-xylene have been measured at 8$^{\circ}$, 15$^{\circ}$ and 25$^{\circ}C$ in the presence and the absence of gallium iodide. When gallium iodide does not exist in the system, the solubility of n-propyl iodide in m-xylene is greater than in nitrobenzene, indicating a stronger interaction of n-propyl iodide with m-xylene than that with nitrobenzene. It could be thought that n-propyl iodide forms unstable complex with gallium iodide in the presence of gaillium iodide in the system. This complex has been assumed in various ways and evaluated, that instability constant (K value) is relatively certain under the assumption of 1:1 complex, n-C$_3H_7I{\cdot}GaI_3$. Therefore, the complex would form the following equilibrium in the solution: n-C$_3H_7{\cdot}GaI _3{\rightleftharpoons}n-C_3H_7I+1/2Ga_2I_6$ the instability of the complex of n-propyl iodide with gallium iodide is compared with similar complexes of gallium iodide with methyl iodide. The changes of enthalpy, free energy and entropy for the dissociation of the complex are also calculated.

The effects of added alcohols on the critical micelle concentration(CMC) of cetylpyridinium bromide(CPB) were investigated by the UV-Vis spectrophotometer at the temperature range of 8∼45$^{\circ}C$. The CMC of CPB was increased with the addition of methanol in the whole temperature region studied, while decreased with the addition of ethanol and propanol. The increase of CMC with the addition of methanol may be attributable to the increasing solvent power of the methanol-water mixture, because methanol was scarcely solubilized into the palisade layer of the micelle of CPB. The decrease of CMC with the inclusion of ethanol and propanol may be derived from the solubilization of alcohols into the micelles. On the other hand, the CMC was decreased with the temperature rise in the low-temperature region below about 25$^{\circ}C$, and the CMC was increased in the high-temperature region above that. The thermodynamic parameters (${\Delta}G_M^{\circ},\;{\Delta}H_M^{\circ},\;and\;{\Delta}S_M^{\circ}$) of the micellization of CPB were obtained in some aqueous alcohol solutions. In the whole temperature region (8∼45$^{\circ}C$), the values of ${\Delta}G_M^{\circ}$ were negative, while those of ${\Delta}S_M^{\circ}$ were positive. And in the temperature region below about 25$^{\circ}C$ the ${\Delta}H_M^{\circ}$ values were positive, while in the temperature region above that the values were negative.

Recently, the applications of carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRPs) have become broader than ever when it comes to such industries as automotive, ships, aerospace and military because of their lightweight-ness and high mechanical properties. Thermosetting plastics like epoxy are frequently used as the binding matrix in CFRPs due to their high hardness, wetting characteristics and low viscosity. However, they cannot melted and remolded. For this reason, thermosetting plastic wastes have caused serious environmental problems with the production of fiber reinforced plastics. Thus, many studies have focused on the carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastics (CFRTPs) and recycling carbon fiber. In this study, recycled carbon fiber (RCF) was prepared from CFRPs using a pyrolysis method, which was employed to separate resin and carbon fiber. The degree of decomposition for epoxy resin was confirmed from thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The RCF was cut and ground to prepare a carbon fiber composite sheet (CFCS). CFCS was manufactured by applying recycled carbon fibers and various thermoplastic fibers. Various characterizations were performed, including morphological analyses of surface and cross-section, mechanical properties, and crystallization enthalpy of CFCS at different cooling conditions.

Batch adsorption studies were carried out for equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic parameters for quinoline yellow adsorption by granular activated carbon ($8{\times}30mesh$, $1,578m^2/g$) with varying the operating variables like initial concentration, contact time and temperature. Equilibrium adsorption data were fitted into Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherms. From estimated Langmuir constant ($R_L=0.0730{\sim}0.0854$), Freundlich constant (1/n = 0.2077~0.2268), this process could be employed as effective treatment for removal of quinoline yellow. From calculated Temkin constant (B = 15.759~21.014 J/mol) and Dubinin-Radushkevich constant (E = 1.0508~1.1514 kJ/mol), this adsorption process is physical adsorption. From kinetic experiments, the adsorption process were found to confirm to the pseudo second order model with $r^2$ > 0.99 for all concentrations and temperatures. Thermodynamic parameters like activation energy, change of free energy, enthalpy, and entropy were also calculated to predict the nature adsorption. The activation energy value (+35.137 kJ/mol) and enthalpy change (35.03 kJ/mol) indicated endothermic nature of the adsorption process. Entropy change (+134.38 J/mol K) showed that increasing disorder in process. Free energy change found that the spontaneity of process increased with increasing adsorption temperature.

It is known that the Fe-Al transition metal compounds have a lot of disagreement about structural stability and magnetism. In this study, the correlation between magnetism and atomic structure of ordered $B_2$, $L1_2$, and $D0_3$ structured Fe-Al compounds has been investigated using the all-electron full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FLAPW) method based on the generalized gradient approximation (GGA). We found that considered all the structures were calculated to be stabilized in a ferromagnetic state. The calculated spin magnetic moments of the Fe atoms for B2 and $L1_2$ structures were 0.771 and 2.373 ${\mu}_B$, respectively, and that of Fe(I) and Fe(II) in $D0_3$ structure calculated to be 2.409 ${\mu}_B$, 1.911 ${\mu}_B$, respectively. In order to investigate structural stability between $L1_2$ and $D0_3$ structures, we performed the formation enthalpy calculations. As a result, the $D0_3$ structure is found to be more favorable than $L1_2 one by energy difference 16 meV/atom, which is well consistent with the experimental observation. We understood about structural stability and magnetism for Fe-Al compounds in terms of analysis of their atomic and electronic structures.
