  • To investigate the possibility of processing semi-dried jellyfish and to examine its keeping quality, the factors such as moisture content, pH, volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), viable cell counts, color value and texture were analyzed. For processing of the semi-dried product, optimum conditions of drying temperature and drying time were $25^{\circ}C$ and 90min, respectively, under 60 $\pm$ 5% of relative humidity and 2 m/sec of air blast speed. The shelf-life of the products, vacuum-packing method in nylon/polyethylene/linear low density polyethylene (0.015/0.045/0.040 mm) laminated film bag was at least 6 weeks during storage at 4$^{\circ}C$, while that of air packaged one was at least 4 weeks. In case of 2$0^{\circ}C$ storage the shelf-life of the products was at least 3 weeks in both air and vacuum packaged ones.

  • The thermal degradation of polyethylene has been studied using a nonisothermal thermogravimetric technique under a nitrogen atmosphere condition at several heating rates from 10 to $50^{\circ}C/min$. To obtain information on the kinetic parameters, the dynamic thermogravimetric analysis curve and its derivative have been analyzed by a variety of analytical methods such as Kissinger, Freeman-Carroll, Flynn-Wall, Coats-Redfern, Chatterjee-Conrad, Friedman, Horowitz-Metzger, Ozawa and Denq methods. The comparative works for the kinetic results obtained from various methods should be performed to determine the kinetic parameters, because three are tremendous differences in the calculated kinetic parameters depending upon the mathematical method taken in the analysis. From this work, it was found that the apparent activation energy of HDPE was larger than those of LDPE and LLDPE.

  • Purpose: This study was conducted to find the optimal freezing method and storage conditions for welsh onion. Methods: Cut welsh onions (0.3 cm) were packed in nylon/linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) film bags, and frozen utilizing still-air freezing at -$20^{\circ}C$ (SAF20) and -$40^{\circ}C$ (SAF40), and immersed-liquid freezing at -$40^{\circ}C$ (ILF40); they were then stored at -$20^{\circ}C$ for 7 months. During storage, quality characteristics were measured monthly. Results: Drip loss was the lowest in the ILF40 packaging. Color difference in the stem (white part) did not differ significantly according to freezing conditions and storage time. Color difference in the leaf (green part) and stem was the lowest in SAF20. pH remained unchanged, while total aerobic bacterial count, pyruvic acid and moisture content decreased during storage. Pyruvic acid content of ILF40 was the highest among the freezing treatments. Fructose and glucose contents increased gradually during storage. Citric acid, malic acid, succinic acid and fumaric acid contents were unaffected, regardless of the freezing conditions. Conclusion: The optimal freezing method for welsh onions with the least quality changes was determined to be immersed liquid freezing, following by preservation up to 7 months by freeze-storing.

  • The object of this study is to obtain the optimum mix proportion of halogen free compound with flame resistance and, for the purpose, thermal/electrical characteristics test are conducted using compatibilizing agents, flame resistance agents, hydroxide aluminum, sunscreen, antioxidant and silicon oil on the base resin of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE), Ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA). Existing compound method accompanies many requirements to be satisfied including a lot of addition of flame resistance agents, prohibition of impact on mixing capability with base and property and etc. In this study, different from the existing method, the optimum mix proportion is determined and experimented by adding nano clay. Oxygen index test shows no difference between specimens while T-6, T-9 shows oxygen index of 29[%] and 26[%], respectively. This is concluded that hydroxide aluminum, which is a flame resistance agent, leads low oxygen index. From UL94-V vertical flame resistance test, the combustion behavior is determined as V-0, Fail based on UL94-V decision criteria. Viscometry shows low measurements in specimens with separate addition of compatibilizing agents or nano clay. Volume resistivity test shows low measurement mainly in specimens without compatibilizing agents. Therefore, with the flame resistance compound shows better performance for thermal/electrical property and the optimum mix proportion are achieved among many existing materials.

  • Optimization of process parameters in polymer extrusion is an important task to reduce manufacturing cost. To determine the optimum values of the process parameters, it is essential to find their influence on the elongation of polymer breathable thin film. The significance of six important process parameters namely, extruder cylinder temperature, extruder speed, extruder dies temperature, cooling roll temperature, stretching ratio, stretching roll temperature on breathable film elongation of polymer extrusion was determined. Moreover, this paper presents the application of Taguchi method and analysis of variance(ANOVA) for maximization of the breathable film elongation influenced by extrusion parameters. The optimum parameter combination of extrusion process was obtained by using the analysis of signal-to-noise ratio. The conclusion revealed that stretching ratio were the most influential factor on the film elongation. The best results of film elongation were obtained at lower stretching ratio.

  • Biodegradable plastics were developed using biodegradable pellets made of corn stalk and rice husk and their safety as food packages and their biodegradability against light (ultraviolet (UV)), heat, and fungi were evaluated. Four kinds of 50-${\mu}m$ biodegradable plastics were produced by extruding the mixtures of the biodegradable pellets, low-density polyethylene (LDPE), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) with different compositions. Developed biodegradable plastics were safe to be used as food packages. The initial tensile strength and percentage elongation of the plastics were similar to those of LDPE, but the values decreased with increased their exposure time to UV and heat. The fungal biodegradability of the biodegradable plastics was higher than that of LDPE. The biodegradability of the biodegradable plastics shows the potential for them to be used as sustainable food packages.

  • 도로, 철도 등의 횡단통로, 오폐수관로, 지하배수관 등 연약지반에서 상재하중과 부등침하에 의한 파괴 위험을 줄이기 위해 구조적인 안전성과 내구성이 개선된 다양한 관로들이 활용되고 있다. 관은 매설특성에 따라 콘크리트관, 도관, 합성수지관, 덕타일 주철관, 파형강관, 유리섬유 강화 플라스틱과 폴리에스테르수지 콘크리트관 등의 종류로 구분된다(환경부, 2017). 수리설계 시 이러한 관의 단면 규모 결정 및 흐름 특성을 파악하기 위해 관수로 유량측정에 이용되는 Manning의 경험식을 이용하고 있으며, 관로의 주요 재질에 따른 다양한 조도계수가 제시되어 있다. 새로운 재질을 이용하여 제작된 관은 수리실험을 통해 조도계수를 결정하는 것이 바람직하지만, 조도계수 실험은 대규모의 실험시설과 유량공급이 요구되기 때문에 여러 한계가 있다. PE관의 경우, 미국의 ASTM 표준에 의해 저밀도 폴리에틸렌(LDPE), 선형 저밀도 폴리에틸렌(LLDPE), 고밀도 폴리에틸렌(HDPE) 등으로 분류되는데 본 연구에서는 HDPE 재질의 서로 직경이 다른 다중벽관 PE관을 대상으로 조도계수를 결정하기 위한 현장 실규모 수리실험을 수행하였다. 본 실험에서는 식생, 수로의 불규칙성, 수로노선, 침전과 세굴, 장애물, 계절적 변화, 부유물질과 소류사는 무시되며 표면조도, 관의 크기와 형상, 수위와 유량이 조도계수에 영향을 미치는 주요 인자라고 할 수 있다. 수리실험은 실물모형(Prototype)으로 한국농어촌공사 농어촌연구원의 대형수리모형실험장에서 수행되었으며. 길이 24 m, 직경 150 mm의 PE 관은 고정식 개수로, 직경 800 mm의 관은 대형유사순환수로에 각각 설치되었다. 관로의 전면에 차폐막을 설치하여 상류부 수위를 안정시킨 상태에서 실험을 수행하였고, 차폐막으로부터 하류방향으로 약 7 m(측정기준지점), 11 m, 13 m, 15 m, 17 m 떨어진 곳에서 각각 수위와 유속을 측정하였다. 실험 결과, φ150관은 직경대비 수심이 클수록 조도계수가 감소하는 경향이 나타났고, φ800관은 직경대비 수심의 변화에 따른 조도계수의 경향이 크게 드러나지 않았다. 결론적으로 PE관의 조도계수는 수심별로 변화하는 것으로 나타났으며, 특정 수심을 지나면 조도계수가 다시 감소할 것으로 판단된다.

  • In this study, environmental evaluation of high barrier coated paper (coating layer/paper) packaging is conducted in comparison with conventional aluminum laminated (PET/VMPET/LLDPE) plastic packaging. The target product for this packaging is a KF94 mask, which requires a high barrier of water and oxygen to maintain the filtration ability of the mask filter. The functional unit of this study is 10,000 mask packaging materials based on a material capable of blocking oxygen (<1 g/m2day) and moisture (<3 g/m2day) for the preservation of KF94 masks. In order to understand the results easily, paper-based mask packaging system divided into 6 stages (pulp, pulping & paper making, calendaring & coating, printing, packing and waste management), while plastic-based mask packaging consists of 5 stages (material production, processing, printing, packing, waste management) In case of paper-based mask packaging, most contributing stage is calendaring & coating, resulting from heat and electricity production. On the other hand, plastic-based mask packaging is contributed more than 30% by material production, specifically due to linear low density polyethylene and purified terephthalic acid production. The comparison results show that global warming potential of paper-based mask packaging has 32% lower than that of plastic-based mask packaging. Most of other impact indicators revealed in similar trend.

  • This study aimed at improving the packaging technology of Yukwa to improve the quality and extend the shelflife using secondary packaging. After packaging the Yukwa using an OPP film, P2, P3, and P4 packaging materials were applied secondarily. Various films including (1) P1: OPP (oriented polypropylene), (2) P2: P1+OPP/LLDPE (linear low density polyethylene), (3) P3: P1+PET (polyethylene terephthalate)/NY (nylon)/CPP (cast polypropylene) and (4) P4: P1+PET/AL (aluminum)/NY/CPP (P4) were used for packaging Yukwa. The experiment was conducted at $25^{\circ}C$ for 12 weeks. P1 showed the highest acid value score (1.26 mg KOH/g), and P3 had the highest peroxide value score (32.91 meq/kg) among all packaging groups. Nevertheless, these values did not exceed the guideline values of 2.0 g KOH/g and 40 meq/kg specified in the Korean food code. The overall color difference showed a tendency for decreasing Hunter 'L' values and increasing 'a' and 'b' values; however, no noticeable difference in the outer appearance was observed in any of the packaging treatments except in the P1 for greater than 10 weeks of storage. Some texture defects were observed in the Yukwa when the moisture contents dropped below 5%. The P4 packaging treatment had the lowest moisture permeability and showed the least rheological deterioration change, followed by P3 and P2. In conclusion, the use of a secondary packaging with less gas and moisture permeability was more effective for maintaining the quality and extending the shelf-life of Yukwa than other types of packaging material.

  • Aseptic packaged cooked rice without oxygen absorber and EVOH material was not suitable for good quality during long storage at room temperature. Quality change of aseptic packaged cooked rice with OPP/EVOH/EPL(P-1), PET/EVOH/EPL(P-2) and OPP/EVOH/LLDPE(P-3) for lid material and FX and TSQ for oxygen absorber was observed during storage(60 days) at $20^{\circ}C,\;30^{\circ}C\;and\;40^{\circ}C$. To evaluate quality change of aseptic packaged cooked rice, water content, color, pH, acidity, hardness, and total plate count were measured periodically. The results showed that moisture content was decreased as storage time increased while storage temperature showed no significant effect. P-2 and FX combination had the lowest evaporation of water. L value was decreased as storage time increased while a value increased in all treatment. P-2 and FX combination had the best result for color value. Titratable acidity and pH of P-3 increased up to 20, 5.5, respectively at the end of storage while the other treatment showed no significant effect. Hardness of aseptic packaging of cooked rice was decreased as temperature of storage increased while lid materials and oxygen absorber types showed no significant effect. Result of total plate count showed that there was no detection for $20^{\circ}C\;and\;30^{\circ}C$ storage temp. while more than $1{\times}10^6\;CFU/g\;for\;40^{\circ}C$ storage temp. at the end of storage. In conclusion, aseptic packaged cooked rice could be stored and distributed for 6 month at room temp. and effect of lid materials on quality change of aseptic packaged cooked rice was more significant than oxygen absorber.
