The purpose of this study is to find out characteristics of the fillers made by epoxy resin (L-30) and filling epoxy resin (L-50) with talc, quartz sand and wollastonite with different mixture ratio of 5%, 50%, 80%, 120%, and 150%. The viscometer and colorimeter were used to measure the viscosity and chromaticity of the fillers. Additionally, IC and SEM were used to reveal characteristics of the filler, and checked ultrasonic wave velocity, compressive strength and contact angle to estimate the stability between the filler and stones which are essential for conservation treatments. The filler mixed with the talc had the lowest value in the ultrasonic wave velocity analysis, and its compressive strength decreased as the mixing rate of talc increased. On the other hand, wollastonite had higher values than others in the ultrasonic wave velocity and the compressive strength regardless of epoxy resin type, also, these values increased as mixing rate increased. The properties of the filler, which include the granularity and shape, have influence on characteristics of the stone conservation adhesives. Thus, the filler type, characteristic, and mixture ratio must be considered for effective conservation treatment.

The purpose of this study is to examine the possible use of functionally elevated Gochujang, a Korean traditional fermented sauce, and the result is as follows. The water content of Gochujang became significantly higher as jujube concentrate was added. The more amount of jujube powder, the less water content of Gochujang. And the water content of jujube concentrate added Gochujang was higher than jujube powder added Gochujang. For the chromaticity, lightness and yellowness were increased while redness and salinity were decreased with more jujube added. The viscosity of jujube concentrate was decreased when its amount was increased, and the viscosity of jujube powder was increased when its amount was increased The results of sensory tests figured out GJC30(30% of jujube concentrate added) and GJP15(15% of jujube powder added) showed the highest preference, so those seem like the best additional level for elevating the sensory value and instrumental quality characteristics of Gochujang. This study showed that the possibility of using functionally fortified Gochujang by adding jujube which is nutritious and rich of health ingredients.

$TiO_2$ thin films consisting of positively charged poly (diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) and negatively charged titanium (IV) bis (ammonium lactato) dihydroxide (TALH) were successfully fabricated on a poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) by layer-by-layer (LBL) self-assembly method. By the measurement of quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), it was found that as the solution pH of TALH decreased, the deposition volume of TALH increased and the thickness of (PDDA/TALH) thin film coated on the surface of PMMA particles increased. The PMMA particles coated with the coating sequence of (PDDA/TALH)n showed the variation of color changes as a function of the number of bilayer. The number of bilayer (n) of (PDDA/TALH) thin films was 10 and 20, the values of $a^*$ and $b^*$ decreased from those of PMMA particles without coating films and the color changes was shifted to green and blue direction in the $a^*$, $b^*$ chromaticity diagram. And then, the number of n increased to 30 and 40, the values of $a^*$ and $b^*$ increased and the color changes was shifted to red and yellow direction, respectively. Finally the PMMA particles coated with $(PDDA/TALH)_{50}$ thin film showed a little same value of $a^*$ and $b^*$ with the PMMA particles without (PDDA/TALH) thin film.

The objective of this study was to determine the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of Yaksik prepared with different amounts of turmeric powder. Turmeric powder was incorporated into Yaksik at different levels containing 1.7, 2.8, and 3.9% based on the total weight of ingredients. Moisture contents of Yaksik were 41.45~44.93% and increased with higher amount of turmeric powder. Ash and crude lipid contents did not show any significant differences between control and samples. The control group showed higher sweetness and lower pH than the other groups, and sweetness decreased and pH increased upon addition of turmeric powder. In the chromaticity determination, L value decreased while a and b values increased as turmeric powder increased. The total polyphenol and flavonoid contents proportionally increased with levels of turmeric powder. The antioxidant activities measured by DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities as well as reducing power were significantly higher than those of the control and proportionally increased as turmeric powder increased. In the sensory evaluation, control and Yaksik made with 1.7% addition of turmeric powder showed the highest preference in terms of color, taste, texture, and overall acceptance. These results suggest that turmeric powder may be a useful ingredient in Yaksik to improve quality and sensory properties.

This experiment was carried out to enhance the availability of blackberry. Since it is difficult to use blackberry as a fresh fruit, we investigated the quality characteristics of blackberry powder obtained by various drying methods (freeze drying and hot-air drying at $40{\sim}80^{\circ}C$). The L- and b-values of freeze-dried powder was higher than hot-air dried powder. The pH (3.2) was lowest and the acidity (14.4%) was highest in freeze-dried powder. In freeze drying, the brix degree was $65.7^{\circ}Bx$, but it increased from $54.7^{\circ}Bx$ to $68.5^{\circ}Bx$ with increasing temperature during hot air drying. The total polyphenol and flavonoids contents were the highest in freeze-dried powder, at 9.3 and 6.2 mg/g, respectively. The levels increased as temperature increased in hot air drying. Anthocyanin content in freeze-dried powder was 8.51 mg/g, while it sharply decreased to 1.17~2.45 mg/g in hot-air drying. Vitamin C content in freeze drying ($979.4{\mu}g/g$) was higher than that in hot-air drying ($48.3{\sim}303.2{\mu}g/g$). The sample concentration required for 50% reduction of DPPH free radical scavenging ($RC_{50}$) was $79.7{\mu}g/mL$ in freeze drying, and showed high antioxidant activity. Also it decreased from $122.4{\mu}g/mL$ to $87.7{\mu}g/mL$ with temperature increase during hot air drying. We therefore conclude from the above results that freeze drying is more suitable for the production of blackberry powder, because this method showed high value of chromaticity, total polyphenol, flavonoid, anthocyanin content, vitamin C and antioxidant activity.

In a color image, people and especially facial patterns are important and interesting visual objects. Thus, effective skin color reproduction is essential, as skin color is a key memory color in color application systems. Previous studies suggested skin color reproduction by mapping only to the center value of preferred skin region. However, it is not suitable to determine one preference color because preference color from the observer's preference test is not dominant. In this paper, skin color reproduction using multiple preferred skin colors for each race is proposed. The proposed method first defines multiple preferred skin colors for each race according to their luminance level. After that, skin region is detected in an image. The race is then selected by calculating distance between average chromaticity of detected region and that of each racial skin from a database to assign preferred skin color for each race. Next, each corresponding preferred skin color is determined for each selected race. Finally, input skin color is proportionally mapped toward preferred skin color according to the difference between the input skin color and the preferred skin color for a smoothly reproduced skin color. In the experimental results, the proposed method gives better color correction on the objective and subjective evaluation than the previous methods.

The objective of this study is to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of yanggaeng prepared with different amounts of aronia juice. Aronia juice was incorporated into yanggaeng at different levels (containing 50, 100, and 150 g of aronia juice in AJ 50, AJ 100, and AJ 150, respectively) based on the total weight of water. Total acidity and sugar contents showed a significant increase, however, pH showed a decrease with increasing levels of aronia juice. Hardness also showed an increase with increasing levels of aronia juice. Regarding texture profile analysis, hardness, springiness, and chewiness of yanggaeng were increased, however, cohesiveness was similar compared to the control and aronia juice added treatments. In chromaticity determination, L and b values showed a decrease, however, a value increased with increasing levels of aronia juice. The total polyphenols, flavonoids, and anthocyanin contents were increased proportionally with increasing levels of aronia juice. Antioxidant activity measured by DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities were significantly higher than those of control and increased proportionally according to the concentration of aronia juice. The sensory evaluation indicated that AJ 100 showed the best preference in color, taste, texture, flavor, and overall acceptance. These results suggest that aronia juice may be a useful ingredient in yanggaeng for improvement of quality and antioxidant potential.

In this study, we compared the properties of 23 high and 55 low price sunglass lenses with the standards in the ordinary optical properties, materials, coloration, UV, IR and luminous transmittance, color acceptance for traffic signal, chromaticity and contrast sensitivity. The ordinary optical properties of the lenses met comparatively the requirements of the KS standard. The HIGH-type and LOW-type lenses were primarily made by glass and acrylate, respectively. In the coloration, HIGH-type was in group around neutral color but LOW-type was distributed widely on the line between 570 nm and 485 nm. There are fails in 7% of HIGH-type and 18% of LOW-type in the stimulus purity of the luminous transmittance. Wavelength of the UV/VIS cut-off was over 350 nm for HIGH-type but 6% of LOW-type was under 350 nm. In the erythemal UV, all HIGH-type met the needs of standards but 5 LOW-type failed with DIN standard In the near UV, KS standard worked in stringency, and HIGH-type showed more failure than LOW-type. The characteristics of the IR transmittance of HIGH-type was better than that of LOW-type. In the color acceptance of traffic signal, all HIGH-type met the needs of ANSI standards but 21.8% of LOW-type failed with the standard. In the contrast sensitivity tested with various coloured sunglasses, the value increased with increasing of Land decreasing of test distance. In view of the results so far, HIGH-type met with excellent properties as compared with LOW-type.

The effects of aronia powder on the rheological and sensory characteristics of Sulgidduk were investigated. The moisture content of Sulgidduk ranged from 40.86 to 44.40%; however, addition of aronia powder to Sulgidduk tended to decrease its moisture content. With regard to the rheological properties, the addition of aronia powder decreased the hardness, springiness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, chewiness, gumminess, and brittleness of Sulgidduk. Chromaticity determination revealed a decrease in L and b values, while the a value increased with the increasing amounts of aronia powder. Total polyphenol, total flavonoid and total anthocyanin contents increased with the increasing amounts of aronia powder. Antioxidant activity, measured by DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities, was significantly higher than that of the control, and increased proportionally with the amount of aronia powder. During 4 day storage, the growth of total aerobic colony and coliform content significantly decreased with increasing levels of aronia powder in Sulgidduk. Sensory evaluation demonstrated the best score in color, taste and overall acceptance when aronia powder was added at 5% of rice powder. These results suggest that 5% aronia powder can be added for the preparation of Sulgidduk.
