In this work, the cure kinetics and rheological and mechanical properties of diglycidylether of bispheonol A (DGEBA, EP)/polyurethane (PU) blends were investigated. The 1 wt% N-benzylpyrazinium hexafluoroantiminate (BPH) was used as a latent thermal catalyst. Latent properties were performed by measurement of the conversion as a function of reaction temperature using DSC. And the rheological properties of the blend systems were investigated under isothermal conditions using a rheometer. Crosslinking activating energies (Ec) were also determined from the Arrhenius equation based on gel time and curing temperature. The impact strengths were measured as mechanical properties of the casting specimens. The BPH in the blend systems could be an excellent latent thermal catalyst without any co-initiator. The rheological results showed that Ec was highest when PU content was 30 wt% which was in good agreement with the impact strengths. This was probably due to the intermolecular hydrogen bonding between the hydroxyl group in PU and EP, resulting in increasing the crosslinking density.

This study examined the flow properties, paste clarity, freeze-thaw stability and gel strength of acetylated sweet potato starch (ASPS) pastes and gels as a function of degree of substitution (DS). ASPS showed high shear-thinning flow behaviors with high Casson yield stress ($\sigma_{oc}$). Consistency index (K), apparent viscosity ($\eta_{a,100}$) and $\sigma_{oc}$ values of ASPS increased with an increase in DS. In the temperature range of $25{\sim}70^{\circ}C$, ASPS followed an Arrhenius temperature relationship. The activation energies (Ea=13.2~14.3 kJ/mol) of the ASPS samples were much lower than that (18.1 kJ/mol) of the native sweet potato starch (SPS). ASPS gels showed better freeze-thaw stability with a significant decrease in syneresis (%) compared to SPS gel. The gel strength values of ASPS were much lower than that of SPS, and significantly decreased with an increase in DS. The clarity of native SPS paste increased after acetylation.

The heat decomposition rate of guanosine-5'-monophosphate was investigated in pH range from 5.52 to 7.00, and 0.1 of the ionic strength. The result showed that the rate was a first-order reaction and the rate of guanosine-5'-monophosphate loss was maximum near $pKa_2$. The loss of guanosine-5'-monophosphate was temperature dependent and followed to the Arrhenius equation in the temperature region from $93^{\circ}C$ to $108^{\circ}C$. The rate constant as function of temperature ($93^{\circ}C$ to $108^{\circ}C$) and neutral pH($pKa_2$, 6.0, to 7.0) was correlated by least-square fit of the experimental data; $$K=4.19{\times}10^{26}\;{\exp}\;[-1.3(pH+E/RT)]$$

Respiration of 'Fuyu' persimmon (Diospyros kaki) fruits were measured in terms of oxygen consumption rate and carbon dioxide evolution by closed system experiments at 0, 5, and $20^{\circ}C$. Enzyme kinetics-based respiration model was used to describe respiration rate as function of $O_2\;and\;CO_2$ gas concentrations $(R=V_m[O_2]/K_m+(1+[CO_2]/K_i)[O_2])$, and Arrhenius equation was applied to analyze temperature effect. $V_m\;and\;K_m$ increased, while $K_i$ decreased, with increasing temperature. $K_m\;of\;O_2$ consumption was greater than that of $CO_2$ evolution at equal temperature. Inhibitory effect of reduced $O_2$ level on $O_2$ consumption was more prominent than that on $CO_2$ evolution. Activation energy of respiration decreased with reduced $O_2$ and elevated $CO_2$ concentrations. Activation energy of $CO_2$ evolution was greater than that of $O_2$ consumption. Permeable package experiments verified respiration model parameters by showing good agreement between predicted and experimental gas concentrations in package.

We present bulk diffusion rates of hydroxide ions in amorphous solid water (ASW) at 135 ~ 160 K. Previous researches showed that the diffusion mechanism of hydroxide is different from one of hydronium ions, and this implies that they have different diffusion rates. In ultra-high vacuum (UHV) chamber, low-energy scattering (LES) was used to measure ion population and temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) was conducted for measuring ASW thicknesses. To determine the diffusion rates, a simple model for $H_2O/NaOH/H_2O$ sandwich films was developed using Fick's second law. The measured surface population of hydroxide ions as a function of time was well fitted to the model, and the rates were well agreed to an Arrhenius equation.

Sintering kinetics of ball-milled $MoSi_2$ was studied with the addition of Ni. $MoSi_2$ powder with the average particle size of 1 $\mu\textrm{m}$ was obtained from ball-milling of 10 $\mu\textrm{m}$ powder. Small amount of Ni was added to the ball-milled $MoSi_2$ powder by salt solution and reduction method. The powder was compacted into cylindrical shape at 200 MPa and isothermally sintered in a $H_2$ atmosphere at the temperature range of 1100~$1400^{\circ}C$ for 3~600 minutes. The changes of linear shrinkage and sintered density were monitored as a function of sintering time. The microstructure was observed by using optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Phases were identified by X-ray diffratometer and electro-probe micro analysis. Sintering kinetics of Ni-added powder was compared to as-milled powder and the apparent activation energy was calculated from Arrhenius plot.

Rubber components are widely used in many application such as vibration isolators, damping, ride quality. Rubber spring is used in primary suspension system for railway vehicle. Characteristics and useful life prediction of rubber spring was very important in design procedure to assure the safety and reliability. Non-linear properties of rubber material which are described as strain energy function are important parameter to design and evaluate of rubber spring. These are determined by physical tests which are uniaxial tension, equi-biaxial tension and pure shear test. The computer simulation was executed to predict and evaluate the load capacity and stiffness for rubber spring. In order to investigate the useful life, the acceleration test were carried out. Acceleration test results changes as the threshold are used for assessment of the useful life and time to threshold value were plotted against reciprocal of absolute temperature to give the Arrhenius plot. By using the acceleration test, several useful life prediction for rubber spring were proposed.

The ionic conductivityof NASICON solid electrolytes was simulated by using Monte Carlo Method (MCM) based on a hopping model as functions of temoperature and composition. Two conduction paths were used : jumping from Na1 to Na2 and jumping from Na1 to Na2 and jumping from Na2 to Na2. Vacancy availability factor, V was affected by composition, temperature and the conduction paths. For β"-Alumina, it was known that the minimum of charge correlation factor, fc appears at the composition, p=0.5, but there was not shown the minimum of fc for NASICON. When the NASICON composition, x, approaches 2.5, the curve of In σT vs. 1/T* was shown Arrhenius behavior and also In (VWfc) was a linear function of 1/T*. The results of simulations on the considered conduction paths didn't agree with the experimental results. Thus it will be necessary to include the another Na sites as mid-Na site on the conduction path to obtain the better results.

The method to characterize the fresh produce respiration was presented with possible application of modified atmosphere package design. Particularly the respiration model based on enzyme kinetics was introduced as function of oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations. The method to estimate the equilibrated package atmosphere for any package conditions was presented by incorporation of $O_2$ and $CO_2$ permeabilities of the packaging film. Temperature dependences for fresh produce respiration and gas permeation were given by Arrhenius equation and then used to analyze the effect of temperature on the package atmosphere. An example analysis was presented for better understanding of the concept.

The typical MCFC (molten carbonate fuel cell) anode is made of Ni-10%Cr alloy. The work of this paper is focused concerning long life of anode because Ni-10% Cr anode is suffering from sintering and creep behavior during cell operation. Therefore, Ni-coated Alumina powder($20{\mu}m$) was developed by electroless nickel plating. Optimum condition of electroless nickel coation on $20{\mu}m$ alumina is as follows: pH 11.7, temperature $65{\sim}80^{\circ}C$, powder amount $100cm^2/l$. The deposition rate for Ni-electroless plating was as a function of temperature and activation energy was evaluated by Arrhenius Equation thereby activation energy calculated slope of experimental data as 117.6 kJ/mol, frequency factor(A) was $6.28{\times}10^{18}hr^{-1}$, respectively.
