In order to offer monitoring data about standard and specification of metallic kitchenware, we carried out the material test and migration test of lead and antimony in 71 kinds of kitchenwares. As a result of this study, Pb was detected less than 0.06% at the material test and Sb was not defected in 71 kinds of kitchenwares. Pb was also detected less than 0.41 mg/L at the migration test. Currently according to the Food Code of Korea, Pb and Sb in metal product shall not exceed 10% and 5%, respectively and Pb migrated from metal product shall not exceed 1.0 mg/L. Therefore, our all data are not exceeding the standard and specification of metal product and show that all the kitchenwares in domestic circulation may be safe.

Despite the steady effort of kitchen furniture industry, consumers' complains never seem to decrease. The common storage problem of the houses of different sizes(20 pyeong, 30 pyeong, and 40 pyeong) was the dificiency of storage area and inadequate shelf division. It implies that such dificiency in kitchens is not because of the size of storage area, but because of such a great diversity of kitchenware and lack of studies on these items. The purpose of this research is to provide the checklist of the variety and quantity of stored kitchenware in researched area and easily adopt it to the kitchen furniture design. Studied household in average hold 239 types and about 890 items. The size of residence did not effect the number much. The first step of making the checklist is to categorize items into 9 biggest categories considering the usage of items and in which step of the preparing food the item was used. Second step is to categorize the items into 31 smaller categories reflecting the shape of items, the storage style and the place of storage. Third step is to sort the items into smallest categories by the frequency of use, storage type, and additional capacity of an item. Even when items are sorted into the same higher level of categories, the frequency of use caused storage area to differ. Also, storage style of an item differed according to the storage area. Based on these factors, we listed items in detail and made the checklist.

This research is to suggest effective kitchen furniture design for 40, 50 pyeong-size apartment considering the quantity and volume, heights or length of stored items for cooking. The research candidates are purposive-sampled 30 households in Kangnam, Seoul. The observation shows that the volume of kitchen furniture is $3.1{\sim}5.9m^3$ and of utility furniture is $0.3{\sim}3.8m^3$. For each households hold average of 886 kitchenwares, $4.1m^3$. Such were normally stored in the upper and lower storage and tall storage closet for a kitchen. Through the field studies and depth interviews, it is shown that there are 287 (33.2%), $1.67m^3$ of the application for preparing food, certain knives, disposable products and food which is considered absolutely or comparatively hard to organize. Products that are very hard to organize are the small application for cooking, grouped kitchenware such as openers, the applications with long rod shape food, and detergent. There are 96 of such products, taking the volume of $0.32m^3$; thus, such products are considered to improve the kitchen furniture design. And the shelf of storage can the control 3cm hights according to result of this research.

The whole design process drawing outputs from design planning is based on designers' intuitive ideas and differences in technical ability. However, every design professional agrees to the fact that such design process is filled with individuals' implicit acts or inherent intuition rather than following directions in a certain defined frame. If the design process based on such intuition and experience can start from the rational and scientific process, it would be possible to move more systematic design process to the next step. This study aims to examine what system of thinking are used by designers to conduct the design information process, by using the protocol analysis which is the representative qualitative study method of cognitive science, on designers' cognitive behaviors like the contents of the design sketch process which is the initial step of the kitchenware development process, in order to understand professionals' and non-professionals' design application direction. Thus, the scope of this paper would be limited to "the initial protocol analysis on kitchenware" and "encoding of the analysis on thinking" in the qualitative study that can be the most basic to understand the design cognitive science. As a procedure to solve this study question, it aimed to seek for the product development flow and the educational effect by considering the preceding researches and also re-interpreting cognitive thinking in systematic methods.

This study was peformed to survey and evaluate contents of Pb and Cd in colored plastic kitchenwares by Korea Food Sanitation Act. The tested samples were 160 products(32 PE, 65 PP, 10 PS, 18 ABS and 35 MF) in a local market. The Pb and Cd contents range in the samples were $ND\~357.1mg/kg\;and\;ND\~376.6mg/kg$. Pb contents in 6 samples(1 PE, 1 PP, 2 PS and 2 MF) and Cd contents of 2 samples(1 PE and 1 ABS) were above the legal limits. Among the illegal smples, Pb contents were 140.8mg/kg, 283.4mg/kg, 134.0mg/kg, 329.2mg/kg, 357.1mg/kg and 218.3mg/kg, respectively and Cd contents were 123.1mg/kg and 376.6mg/kg. Pb and Cd in various food simulants were not detected in migration test for illegal samples. Simulants were tested at $25^{\circ}C\;and\;60^{\circ}C$ for n-heptane and $4\%$ acetic acid, and $60^{\circ}C\;and\;95^{\circ}C$ for water.

This study developed a practical knitwear design with applying the pattern of Queen Yeong's pearl pouch. The ume flower pattern of pearl pouch was simplified to be one repeat pattern, and four simulated knit pattern samples of G-A, G-B, R-A, and R-Bwere made with cable, cross, and two background colors of gray and red using Texpro V.11.0. The items of design application were selected after an interview with a panel of university students in their twenties and knit samples were produced by hand knitting. The small sized G-A for the partial ornament of hat, sweater, skirt, kitchenware case and accessories; the long sized G-B for the tuck of sleeves, hem of skirt and one-piece dress, partial ornament of sweater, scarf, and curtain decoration: the small sized R-A was preferred for point ornament of pouch, boots, hat, partial ornament of children's fashion products and accessories: the long sized R-B for table runner, leg warmer, tuck of sleeves, skirt hem, necktie, and scarf. The knit samples were formulated with partial ornaments attached on dress and props or connected each other. Colors of pastel and navy were also presented to meet the demands of panels. The study placed a limit on the slight difference between the simulation samples and knit samples due to the characteristics of threads and hand tension. The color variation for multiple coordination and activation to reduce the piece rate for young customers remains to be discussed in the near future.

I designed a dietary life kitchen utensils which is focused by the shape of split bamboo that has meaning of health and safety and the shaman who is the religion and incantation performer, and who solve problems, which are impossible to solve in common methods, by borrowing the power and granting the meaning which is connected with transcendent existence and principal. Having closest relation with human being's diet culture is being changed with adding beauty instead of the part of simple practical aspect in our normal life. I tried to show incantation effect with keeping the characteristic of kitchen utensils by granting the symbolic meaning of shamanism which is the shelter that is projected the desire of human beings. the materials were produced of an ebony and steel and varnished with lacquer for coloring. For hand shape, which is hard to treat in irregular forms, the religious image of shamanism was formed by casting which expresses the touch of an ebony and the cold characteristic of metal. an overall design doesn't detail excessively distort or largely transform the form of dietary utensils, keeps its individuality, and emphasizes the image by figuring a grip part which a human can see and a body can approach. in addition, I try to show a point that shamanism has affected human life for long time and symbolic meaning of bamboo-shape shows health and safety. And these things vest with each dietary life tools and should be the role of enzyme about the effect of human life.

The foreign trends of noncompliance occurring frequently in food contact materials during the period of 2011-2019 was investigated by analyzing the food safety risk information DB in the National Food Safety Information Service (NFSI). A total of 2,042 cases of noncompliance of food utensils, containers, and packages were classified into 5 violation categories; administrative procedures, manufacturing and processing standards, residues and migration standards, labeling and advertising, and quality standards. This was again subcategorized according to non-compliance causative factors. The non-compliances in residues and migration standards comprised the largest proportion (76.4%) of the violative categories. The number of noncompliance information collected in 2011 was 88 cases and increased to 373 cases in 2019. A 72.8% of the non-compliance case was identified to be products of 4 countries (China 64.2%, Germany 4.0%, Japan 3.2%, and Taiwan 3.1%), those produce large quantities of containers and packaging products. During the period of 2011-2019, the number of illegal use of hazardous materials and illegal recycling of waste synthetic resins has decreased to less than one a year since 2014. On the other hand, after 2016, inconsistency of heat-resisting temperature labeling (Taiwan), non-compliance in paper container's strength standards, violation of printing standards, and the risk of consumer injury while using the products were newly reported due to the strengthening of consumer safety protection regulations. Migration of hazardous substances in synthetic polymer products such as heavy metals, melamine and formaldehyde in melamine tableware, primary aromatic amines which are colorant components in kitchenware such as ladles and spatulas, and phthalate plasticizers have been continuously reported with high frequency.

This paper proposes a method for classifying the grade of stainless steel using a portable NIR(Near Infrared Ray) spectrometer and a CNN(Convolutional Neural Network) deep learning model. Traditionally, methods for classifying stainless steel grades have included chemical analysis, magnetic testing, molybdenum spot tests, and portable XRF devices. In addition, a classification method using a machine learning model with element concentration and heat treatment temperature as parameters was presented in the paper. However, these methods are limited in their application to everyday products, such as kitchenware and cookware, due to the need for reagents, specialized equipment, or reliance on professional services. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a simple method for classifying the grade of stainless steel using a NIR spectrometer and a CNN model. If the method presented in this paper is installed on a portable device as an on-device in the future, it will be possible to determine the grade of stainless steel used in the product, and to determine on-site whether a product made of low-cost material has been disguised as a high-cost product.

The human's emotion has been used as a key factor in the design area and a marketing technique in a company. Therefore, a company is very interesting in human' emotional factor for the marketing and the design development recently. There have been very few studies carried out on enhancing how to use the emotional design and the emotional marketing in the kitchenware industry. Besides, almost all of the research works, which attempted to encourage how to use emotional factor for the design and the marketing, was carried out in the theory research level rather than a practical research. This research has been conducted both a qualitative research and a quantitative research in the field. The research methods were as follows; first, this research studied what is the emotional design and the emotional marketing through the previous literature research works. second, the researchers set up the hypothesis and research aims through the previous empirical research works from the researchers who are doing this research. Third, as the main body of this research, this research was conducted through the analysis of companies' data, the data come from the interviews by managers, and the data from questionnaire by the users. The results was produced after analyses of the above all the data. As a results, this research has introduced the successful case study which used the emotional design concept and the emotional marketing as a strategic level in the kitchenware industry. This research results would be able to help some one who wants to use the emotional design as a strategic level in order to increase their market share.
