Porous glass in the ZrO2-SiO2 system containing up to 30 mol% zirconia were prepared from the mixed solutions of Zr(O.nC3H7)4 and partially prehydrolyzed TEOS by the sol-gel method. Pore characteristics, physical properties and alkali resistance were investigated. The gels converted into the porous glass by heating at $700^{\circ}C$, it was found that the glass like skeleton was already made up in lower temperature regions. The specific surface area of the porous glass was 227 $m^2$/g, average mean pore size was about 19$\AA$ and porosity was 19.2%, pore characteristics and physical properties depended on heating temperature. Alkali resistance of the porous glass increased as the zirconia content increased, because of the appearance of Zr-enriched layer at glass surface.

The purpose of this study was to investigate multiple body-image and clothing-benefit sought according to body-cathexis. The questionnaire was administered to 458 female college students in Daegu and Kyungpook. The results were obtained as follows. Most respondents were dissatisfied with their body, especially with lower parts and weight. Among three factors of multiple body-image, degree of appearance-conscious was high, but degree of weight control and physical attractiveness were evaluated low. According to body-cathexis, differences were found in degree of weight control and physical attractiveness between groups. Respondents sought practical use of one's clothing most and comfort, figure flaws compensation, in turn. According to body-cathexis, differences were found in 4 factors of clothing-benefit sought, those were figure flaws compensation, sex appeal, individuality, practical use between groups. Between the factors of multiple body-image and the factors of clothing-benefit sought, positive or negative correlations were found, so it indicated that one's body-image was effected on clothing-benefit sought.

This study was carried out to examine the characteristics of hydrogen sulfide adsorption using an iron hydroxide-based adsorbent. The prepared adsorbent was discussed with regard to its adsorption capacity and analyzed via surface analysis methods to illustrate the physical characteristics of hydrogen sulfide adsorption. As the drying temperature increased, the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent decreased from 29.15wt% to 22.73wt%. The adsorption capacity was decreased as the space velocity increased and showed an adsorption capacity of about 3.65 at $3,157.6h^{-1}$. The effect of sulfur dioxide was to decrease the adsorption capacity from 29.15wt% to 27.94wt%. The adsorbent exhibited the amorphous type in its physical appearance based on XRD and EDS analysis.

The technology of virtual environments has been developed with better-quality appearance on a computer display in mind, but without consideration for objects' precise measurements in physical units. With the increased application of computer graphics in a variety of areas, there is a need for precise measurement functionality in addition to visualization. This paper describes the definition of physical properties using measurement units for X3D based virtual objects, to provide their precise physical information in virtual environments. To this end, we have included the physical property node in the X3D specification. The physical measurement units, such as length, mass, time, temperature, etc., are based on SI units (International System of Units).

This study examines the fashion and beauty involvement according to a conspicuous consumption tendency. Questionnaires were used for female university students in their 20s and employees residing in Busan. The results of this study are as follows: The subfactors of conspicuous consumption tendency were divided into the individual pursuit orientation, brand orientation, high price orientation, and fashion pursuit orientation. The subfactors of fashion involvement were composed of physical supplementations, social symbols, outward appearance direction, sex appeal, and assimilation; in addition, those of beauty involvement consisted of hair design, skin management, make-up application, and shape management. Because of the examination of the differences, fashion involvement, and beauty involvement, conspicuous consumption tendency had a significant difference between the two groups in brand orientation, fashion in physical supplementation and outward appearance direction as well as beauty involvement in skin management and make-up direction. The conspicuous consumption tendency in the student influences the fashion pursuit orientation of fashion and beauty involvement because of the examination of the effect. Conspicuous consumption tendency in employees influences the individuality pursuing orientation and high price orientation in fashion involvement. In conclusion, the results show the tendency that university students put the most importance on fashion for fashion and beauty related product purchases and management direction; in addition, employees with income pursue high prices that can show their positions and economic power at work.
