The solubility and miscibility measurement apparatus was developed and used to obtain data for refrigerant/oil mixture. The solubility and miscibility data for R-410A/68 ISO VG polyol ester (POE) oil mixture are obtained over the temperature range from -20 to $60^{circ}C\;with\;10^{\circ}C$ intervals and the oil concentration range from 0 to 90 wt%. Using the experimental data, an empirical model was developed to predict the solubility relations for R-410A/POE oil mixture at equilibrium. In the R-410A/Solest 68 oil mixture, the average root-mean-square deviation between measured data and calculated results from the empirical model is 3.4% and in the R-4104/EMKARATE RL 68H oil mixture, that is 2.86%. For R-410A/68 ISO VG POE oil mixture immiscibility was usually observed at the low oil concentrations(5~30 wt%) over the all experimental temperature range($-20~60^{circ}C$) and at the high oil concentrations(50~90 wt%) over the low experimental temperature range($-2O~0^{circ}C$).

This study was conducted to investigate the difference of antimicrobial activity between $\varepsilon$-polylysine/grapefruit seed extract mixture and $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture against food-borne pathogens. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the $\varepsilon$-polylysine/grapefruit seed extract mixture was 100 times lower than that of the $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture. In case of the $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture the MIC of Bacillus cereus (0.1 $\mu$L/mL) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (0.1 $\mu$L/mL) were lower than that of Escherishia coli (15 $\mu$L/mL). When rices were cooked with the $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture the number of total microbial cell was decreased during storage at 2$0^{\circ}C$ as concentration of the $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture increased. The antimicrobial activity was the highest against Escherishia coli as the concentration of the $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture increased. Sensory terms such as taste, flavor and texture were not significantly different in cooked rices prepared with 0.5% $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture, but there was significantly different in cooked rices prepared with 1% (p＜0.05) in the overall acceptability, indicating that the cooked rice with 0.5% $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture was recommended.

The raw oriental lacquer produced in China was used in this study. This lacquer was diluted with ethanol and terpene in different solvent ratios. The diluted lacquer in the solvents had two layers. The upper layer was solvent soluble and the lower contained precipitates. Hanji was treated with the solvent solubles and the mixture containing precipitates, and then properties of the Hanji were evaluated. The average weight, thickness, and density of Hanji treated with oriental lacquer tended to gradually be decreased as the lower concentration of lacquer was used and as the solvent soluble was treated. Tensile strength of the treated Hanji decreased when the diluted lacquer was used and Hanji treated with terpene dilution at the ratio of lacquer to solvent of 1:5 (v/v) showed higher tensile strength than ones treated with ethanol dilution. The folding endurance decreased as the less concentrated lacquer was used and the highest value was obtained when 1:40 (v/v) of lacquer to solvent ratio in both ethanol and terpene mixture. Absorption ratio was higher in the Hanji treated with ethanol mixture, treated with the lacquer in lower concentration, and treated with ethanol mixture. Hanji treated with ethanol dilution at 1:20 (v/v) and the lower ratio of lacquer to solvent showed a hydrophobic property. Amount of the bound dye materials tended to be decreasing as the concentration of lacquer became lower and it was higher in Hanji treated with ethanol mixture than with terpene mixture.

Double-diffusive convection during solidification process of the binary mixture was studied numerically. Enthalpy method and finite element method were implemented in the analysis. Calculation carried out for $R{\alpha}_T=10^3-10^4$ and $R{\alpha}_T=0-10^5$. The results show that the variation of thermal Rayleigh number changes the fields of velocity, temperature and concentration, but the variation of solutal Rayleigh number gives little effects on those. In conclusion, concentration gradient can be negligible compared with temperature gradient in macroscopic point of view, although concentration gradient plays a role in forming dendrite.

The oil trap in oil separator is one of the most important characteristics for normal operation of compressor. In this study, oil separation characteristics has been investigated for $CO_2$/PAG mixture using a gravity type of oil separator. The experimental study has been carried out in the range of oil concentration 0 to 5 weight-percent and the mixture temperature range of $0^{\circ}C$ to $15^{\circ}C$. The results obtained indicate that oil separation ratio in oil separator is increased with an increase in the oil concentration and mixture temperature.

Two different kinds of cases, with and without addition of noncrystalline silica to the Hadong kaolin were studied to obtain useful information on the synthesis of zeolite. The research was carried out to investigate the formation area and the crystalized degree of zeolite according to a synthetic time, the water content of raw material mixture, KOH concentration, and stirring intensity. In the case of without addition of noncrystalline silica to the Hadong kaolin and the low concentration range of KOH, the structure of the kaolin was not changed. However, when the mole ratio of K2O/SiO$_2$ in natural kaolin was increased, Linde-L zeolite and unknown structure of kaolins, U-1 and U-2 were produced. While in the high concentration range of KOH, the unknown structure of kaolins, U-6 and U-2, were produced and the production rate of U-6 was increased with the increased of K2O/SiO$_2$ mole ratio. In the case of with addition of noncrystalline silica to the Hadong kaolin and treatment with KOH hydrothermal processing, ZSM-5, ZSM-35, and Linde-L zeolites and the mixture of unknown structure of zeolites, U-1, U-2, U-3, and U-4, were obtained. Both cases demonstrated that the synthesis of zeolite from the Hadong kaolin was highly influenced by KOH concentration of raw material mixture.

This study explored the health hazard of those exposed to methylene chloride by assessing its atmospheric concentration when a tear gas mixture was aerially dispersed. The concentration of methylene chloride ranged from 311.1-980.3 ppm (geometric mean, 555.8 ppm), 30 seconds after the dispersion started. However, the concentration fell rapidly to below 10 ppm after dispersion was completed. The concentration during the dispersion did not surpass the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health 'immediately dangerous to life or health' value of 2,300 ppm, but did exceed the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists excursion limit of 250 ppm. Since methylene chloride is highly volatile (vapor pressure, 349 mmHg at $20^{\circ}C$), the post-dispersion atmospheric concentration can rise instantaneously. Moreover, the o-chlorobenzylidenemalononitrile formulation of tear gas (CS gas) is an acute upper respiratory tract irritant. Therefore, tear gas mixtures should be handled with delicate care.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of NaCl, pH and phosphate on the functional properties of a mixed system of plasma protein and myofibrillar proteins. The solubility of plasma protein, myofibrillar protein and the mixture (plasma+myofibrillar protein) increased according to the increase of NaCl concentration ($0{\sim}4%$) and pH $pH4{\sim}8$). The solubility, emulsifying activity and capacity of the mixture were lower than those of plasma protein, whereas higher than those of myofibrillar protein. The gel strength of the mixture and myofibrillar protein showed a significant increase when NaCl concentration was increased from 2 to 3%. The gel strength of myofibrillar protein increased about four times when 0.3% polyphosphate added to the sample containing 2% NaCl, whereas the moisture loss of the mixture and myofibrillar protein decreased significantly. The gel strength of plasma protein, myofibrillar protein and the mixture increased slightly at $3{\sim}5%$ protein concentration, whereas the gel strength of those increased significantly as the protein concentration increased from 5 to 9%.

This paper presents the effects of initial pressure of mixture on CO, $CO_2$ and NOx emissions in constant volume combustion chamber. The CO, $CO_2,O_2,N_2$ concentrations in the chamber are determined by thermal conductivity detection (Gas-chromatograph) wile the NOx concentration is measured by chemiluminescent detection (NOx Analyser). Methane-air mixture is used as premixed fuel and the measurements are taken with equivalence ratios($\phi$) varing from 0.6 to 1.3, and initial pressures of methane-air mixture varing from 0.1MPa to 0.8MPa in constant volume combustion chamber. The NOx concentration steadily increases with increasing equivalence ratio, peaks in lean flame ($\phi$=0.85~0.9), and then rapidly decreases. However, as the initial pressure of mixture is increased, the equivalence ratio corresponding to the point of peak [NOx] shifts towards leaner conditions. This is caused by a similar shift in the peak [CH], which is caused by the variation with pressure and equivalence ratio of the rate of CH production from $CH_2$ and OH. The maximum combustion pressure peaks at $\phi$ =1.05 and the $CO_2$ concentration peaks at $\phi$=0.95~1.0 while the CO concentration rises sharply at the condition of fuel-rich mixtures. This is caused by complete combustion at $\phi$=0.95.

Methylisothiazolinone (MIT) has been used in combination with methylchloroisothiazolinone (CMIT) for cosmetic products such as shampoo, body lotion, and skin care products. The mixture of CMIT/MIT has been found to cause allergic contact dermatitis and is thus no longer permitted for use as a preservative in leave-on cosmetics. However, MIT itself was approved as a stand-alone preservative at a maximum concentration of 100 ppm as the toxicity was derived from CMIT rather than MIT. However, in many countries, allergic skin irritation caused by MIT remains a social concern. In this study, skin irritation was assessed for the presence of MIT, propylene glycol, and their mixture using a 3D human skin model $EpiDerm^{TM}$. Although non-diluted MIT causes serious skin toxicity, skin irritation was not observed at a concentration of 100 ppm, the maximum permissible level for cosmetics and personal care products according to European regulations. Propylene glycol, the most widely used vehicle for MIT, did not cause skin irritation in the 3D skin model. The results are expected to provide information for regulatory policies and guidelines on the use of biocides in consumer products.
