To develop a freshness indicator of Chonggak-kimchi for marketing purposes, Chonggak-kimchi was prepared and pH, total acidity, total aerobic bacterial load, lactic acid bacterial levels, and reducing sugar content were measured. Sensory evaluation tests on product stored at $4^{\circ}C,\;10^{\circ}C,\;and\;20^{\circ}C$, were performed. The pH increased slightly early in storage, and then decreased to pH 4.2-4.3 for all samples. The rate of decrease of pH rose with increasing storage temperature. Total acidity values rapidly increased after 1, 5, and 7 days of storage at $20^{\circ}C,\;10^{\circ}C,\;and\;4^{\circ}C$, respectively. Populations of total aerobic bacteria and lactic acid bacteria increased slightly until 4 days, 10 days, and 30 days of storage at $20^{\circ}C,\;10^{\circ}C,\;and\;4^{\circ}C$, respectively, and then decreased drastically. Sensory evaluation data showed that Chonggak-kimchi was edible until 4 days(pH 4.5), 10 days(pH 4.4), and 30 days(pH 4.3) of storage at $20^{\circ}C,\;10^{\circ}C,\;and\;4^{\circ}C$, respectively. These results clearly suggest that the shelf-life of Chonggak-kimchi depends on storage temperature, and the pH limit for marketing is 4.3; this is a freshness indicator for Chonggak-kimchi.

The B4C-C system was investigated to gain an understanding of the sintering behaviors of B4C. In order to get sintered density of 97% TD, sintering temperature of 225$0^{\circ}C$ was necessary. Since such a high temperature operation is actually difficult on a commercial basis, our objective was to examine the possibility of decreasing the sintering temperature by adding SiC. The addition of SiC in B4C increases the sintering rate about at 210$0^{\circ}C$ and results in a fine microstructure with more than 98% relative density on 55 wt% B4C-40wt% SiC-5 wt% C composition. The probability of liquid phase sintering was investigated, but the evidences of liquid phase formation were not observed with XRD and TEM observation. It was proposed that the addition of SiC and carbon to B4C reduce interface energy during sintering, which results in enhanced grain-boundary diffusion. Thus, the enhanced grain-boundary diffusion and retarded grain growth by SiC improve densification.

초미립 SiC분말과 SiC platelet을 2차성으로 Si3N4에 첨가하여 SiC/Si3N4 하이브리드 복합체를 가압소결로 제조한 후 2차상의 영향을 조사한 결과핫프레스법을 이용한 경우 SiC platelet은 Si3N4 기지 복합채의 치밀화를 저해하지 않고 초미립의 SiC 첨가는 Si3N4의 입성장을 효과적으로 억제하여 미세한 $\beta$-Si3N4의 grain을 형성함을 관찰하였다. 초미립 SiC첨가를 통한 복합체의 강도 증진은 상대적으로 $\beta$-Si3N4입자의 미세화에 의한 인성의 저하를 유도하나 SiC platelet을 첨가하여 급격한 강도 저하 없이 높은 인성을 갖는 하이브리드 복합체를 제조할 수 있었으며 SiC/Si3N4 하이브리드 복합체의 인성증진은 elongated $\beta$-Si3N4와 platelet SiC의 debonding에 의한 grain pull-out 영향임을 알 수 있었다.

PTMSP/LDH composite membranes were prepared by adding 0, 1, 3, and 5 wt% LDH contents to PTMSP. The gas permeability and selectivity for $H_2$, $N_2$, $CH_4$, $C_3H_8$, $n-C_4H_{10}$ were investigated as a function of LDH content. As LDH content of PTMSP/LDH composite membranes increased to 5 wt%, the gas permeability for $H_2$ and $N_2$ gradually decreased, while $n-C_4H_{10}$ permeability rapidly increased. The gas permeability for $CH_4$ and $C_3H_8$ was found to decrease for the membranes with LDH content range of 0~3 wt%, however increase in the range of 3~5 wt%. As LDH content of PTMSP/LDH composite membranes increased to 5 wt%, the selectivity of membranes gradually increased for $H_2$, $N_2$, $CH_4$, $C_3H_8$, $n-C_4H_{10}$ over $H_2$, $N_2$. However the selectivity for $C_3H_8$ and $n-C_4H_{10}$ over $CH_4$ increased in the range of LDH content 0~3 wt% but decreased in the range of 3~5 wt%. The $CH_4$ and $n-C_4H_{10}$ selectivity over $H_2$ and $N_2$ increased as $CH_4$ and $n-C_4H_{10}$ permeability increased. The $n-C_4H_{10}$ selectivity over $CH_4$ increased with increasing $n-C_4H_{10}$ permeability up to 182,000 barrer and decreased above 182,000 barrer of $n-C_4H_{10}$ permeability. The $C_3H_8$ selectivity over $H_2$ and $N_2$ was found to decrease as the $C_3H_8$ permeability increased from 46,000 to 50,000 barrer, but to increase with increasing permeability from 50,000 to 52,300 barrer and decrease again with increasing permeability from 52,300 to 60,000 barrer. The $C_3H_8$ selectivity over $CH_4$ was found to decrease with increasing $C_3H_8$ permeability up to 52,300 barrer but increase above 52,300 barrer.

The preparation of ZrC/SiC mixed powders from $ZrSiO_4/C$ and $ZrSiO_4/Al/C$ systems was attempted in the temperature range below $1600^{\circ}C$ under Ar or $Ar/H_2$ gas flow(100-500ml/min). The formation mechanism and kinetics of ZrC/SiC were suggested and the resultant powders were characterized. In $ZrSiO_4/C$ system, ZrC and SiC were formed by competitive reaction of $ZrO_2(s)$ and SiO(g) with carbon at temperature higher than $1400^{\circ}C$. The apparent activation energy for the formation of ZrC was approximately 18.5kcal/mol($1400-1600^{\circ}C$). In $ZrSiO_4/Al/C$ system, ZrC was formed by reaction of ZrO(g) with Al(l, g) and carbon at temperature higher than $1200^{\circ}C$, and SiC was formed by reduction-carbonization of SiO(g) with Al(l, g) and carbon at temperature higher than $1300^{\circ}C$. The products obtained at $1600^{\circ}C$ for 5h consisted of ZrC with lattice constant of $4.679{\AA}$ and crystallite size of $640{\AA}$, and SiC with lattice constant of $4.135{\AA}$ and crystallize size of $500{\AA}$. And also, the mean particle size was about $21.8{\mu}m$.

Recent investigation and developments of A. Iqbal on diketo-pyrrolo-pyrrole (DPP) pigments has prompted us to synthesize and close observation of a few properties of these molecules. Described are synthesis, via 1-phenyl-2-ethoxycarbonyl-5-pyrrolinone intermediate, of asymmetric derivatives such as 1,4-Diketo-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-phenyl-pyrrolo-(3,4c)-pyrrole (4), 1,4-Diketo-3-(4-bromophenyl)-6-phenybpyrrolo-(3,4c)-pyrrole (5), 1,4-Diketo-3-(3-cyanophenyl)-6-phenyl-pyrrolo-(3,4c)-pyrrole (6), 1,4-Diketo-3-(4-cyanophenyl)-6-phenyl-pyrrolo-(3,4c)-pyrrole (7), 1,4-Diketo-3-(4-pyridyl)-6-phenyt-pyrrolo-(3,4c)-pyrrole (8), 1,4-Diketo-3-(3-pyridyl)-6-phenyl-pyrrolo-(3,4c)-pyrrole (9), 1,4-Diketo-3-(2-pyridyl)-6-phenyl-pyrrolo-(3,4c)-pyrrole (10), 1,4-Diketo-3-($\beta$-naphthyl)-6-phenyl-pyrrolo-(3,4c)-pyrrole (11), and UV-Vis absorption spectrum of the above compounds. Results from calculation of their absorption maxima using PISYSTEM are also described.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of B4C or Y2O3 additives on the tendency of sintering, $\beta$-SiC synthesis and mineral phase changes by reaction bonding of SiC at 145$0^{\circ}C$. At the sintering temperature of 145$0^{\circ}C$, the additives such as B4C or Y2O3 did not improved porosity and bending strength. Added more than 1.5% of Y2O3, 0.5-0.3% of B4C, the formation of $\beta$-SiC was increased. At higher temperature above 145$0^{\circ}C$, it seems that the bodies added B4C, contained 3C form of SiC were denser than that of Y2O3 added. Because the transition of 3Clongrightarrow4Hlongrightarrow6H promoted sintering.

The geometries and energies of $C_2-C_5$ clusters have been calculated using simple semiempirical potential energy functions. The results of the calculations show that the most stable structure of the $C_2-C_5$ clusters is linear and that not only the rhombic $C_4$ but also the Y-shaped $C_4$ hale similar energy to the linear $C_4$.

The result of the study on the classification of $C_3 and C_4$ type plans in Korea is as follows. Seven families and 92 species of $C_4$ type plants(Table 1) were contained among the the herbaceous plants naturally growin in Korea. Most of $C_4$ type plants were Gramineae of mononcotyledons, and the $C_4$ type plants of dicotyledons were weeds in cultivating area, tidal halophtes, and horticultural plants.

The production and productivity of $C_3 and C_4$ type plants in Korea was studcied In the areas, in which the summer temperature is above $30^{\circ}C,;C_3$ type plants showed“M” type productivity curves exhibiting two peaks in spring and autumn, and C4 type plants showd “Bell” type productivity curves which show one peak in summer(Figs. 1,2,3,4,5). From the result of researching the standing crop of $C_3 and C_4$type plants dcuring August and September in which the standing crop reaches the highest peak, the dominant plants in the natural grass vegetation were almost all of $C_4$ type plants, showing the high standing crop, while the standing crop of $C_3$ type plants shows its high peak in the humid areas, riversides and dams.
