It has been reported that the $Ca^{2+}$-ATPase and the $Ca^{2+}-Na^+$ exchanger play an important role for the regulation of intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ in somatic cells, the $Ca^{2+}$-ATPase located in the plasma membrane helps the $Ca^{2+}$ concentration in maintain low $[Ca^{2+}]_i$. Roldan & Fleming reported that the spermatozoan $Ca^{2+}$-ATPase plays an important role in the capacitation and acrosome reaction. We used to assess $Ca^{2+}$ changes by chlortetracycline (CTC) patterns in the capacitation and acrosome reaction of human and hamster spermatozoa. In the present study applying quercetin which has been known as an ATPase antagonist, the enzymatic effect of $Ca^{2+}$-ATPase on capacitation and acrosome reaction was found to be remarkable: a significant increase of the transformation from the original type to the B type and the AR type of spermatozoa. This finding suggests that $Ca^{2+}$-ATPase play an important role in the efflux and the influx of the $Ca^{2+}$ which have been known to be an essential factor for the capacitation and acrosome reaction, and that the inhibitory action of the $Ca^{2+}$-ATPase might be a prerequsit step toward the capacitation and acrosome reaction. In conclusion, this study suggest the considerable evidence as follows: the increment of the intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ concentration occurred by controlling the slope of $Ca^{2+}$ concentration through $Ca^{2+}$-ATPase activites in both the intracellular and extracellulr fluid may be important procedures for the capacitation and the acrosome reaction, and finally for fertilization of the sperm and ovum.

Differential Scanning Calorimetry(DSC)를 이용하여 파이로점화장치에 사용되는 세 가지 고에너지 물질의 열분석 실험을 수행하였다. DSC 실험 데이터를 이용하여 고에너지 물질의 반응속도식을 추출해내는 이론적 방법을 제안하고 반응속도식 추출을 수행하였다. DSC 실험 결과는 Friedman 등전환법으로 분석되었다. 질량분율에 따른 활성화에너지와 빈도인자를 추출해 내어 반응속도식을 완성하였다. 추출된 반응속도식은 고에너지 물질의 화학반응과정을 몇 단계의 주요단계로 가정하는 형태가 아닌 전체 화학 반응 과정을 나타내는 형태를 갖는다. 이는 기존의 열분석 실험을 통해 추출되는 화학반응속도식 형태에 비해 이론적 측면과 정확성 측면에서 상당한 장점을 갖는다. 도출된 반응속도식을 이용하여 실제 추진기관에 운용되는 세 가지 고에너지 물질의 성능변화를 20년에 대하여 예측하였다.

In nanomachining processes, chemical effects are more dominant factor compared with physical deformation. For example, during the nanoscratch on a silicon surface in the atmosphere, micro protuberances are formed due to the mechanochemical reaction between the diamond tip and the surface. On the contrary, in case of chemically stable materials, such as ceramics or glasse, the surface protuberance are not formed. The purpose of this study is to understand effects of the mechanochemical reaction between tip and surfaces on deformation behaviors of hard-brittle materials. Nanometerscale elasoplastic deformation behavior of single crystal silicon (100) was characterized with the surface protuberance phenomena, and compared with that of borosilicate (Pyrex glass 7740).

The dehydrogenation of propane to propylene has been studied in an isothermal high-temperature shell-and-tube membrane reactor containing a Pd-coated ${\psi}$-Al2O3 membrane and a Pt/K/Sn/Al2O3 packed catalyst . A tubular Pd-coated ${\psi}$-Al2O3 membrane was prepared by an electroless plating method. This membrane showed high hydrogen to nitrogen permselectivities (PH2N2 = 10-50) at 400 $^{\circ}C$ and 500 $^{\circ}C$ with various transmembrane pressure drops. The employment of a membrane reactor in the dehydrogenation reaction, which selectively separates hydrogen from the reaction mixture along the reaction path, can greatly increase the conversion and enable operation of the reactor at lower temperatures. High hydrogen permselectivity has been confirmed as a key factor in determining the reactor performance of conversion enhancement.

This paper is an introduction of pessimum program for the identification of alkali-silica reaction of alkali-aggregate reaction which is known as one of a major factor of concrete deterioration. A series of gel-pat testing program was undertaken to observe the reactivity of potentially alkali-silica reactive concrete aggregates which were found to be reactive by previous petrographic examination (ASTM C 295). And then a pessimum program was performed in accordance with mortar-bar test method (ASTM C 227) with different percentage of those reactive components included in the fine aggregate source to determine the pessimum quantity. Chert and quartzite were found to be major components of reactive mineral/rock, and the pessimum condition for chert was about 3%, even though the test was performed with up to 25% of the component. In the case of quartzite, however, the mortar-bar expansion appeared to be directly proportional to the amount of quartzite sample with increasing tested quantity up to 35%. Both of the expansion results were well 3 and 6 month specified maximum limitation of 0.05% and of 0.1% respectively.

This paper presents the analysis of the analysis of thrust characteristics of linear induction motors(LIMs) according to secondary reaction plate. LIMs are well known as high speed transport systems, which can obtain thrust directly without gears and links, or auxiliary mechanisms. A simple structure, easy maintenance, and less environmental pollution are advantages of LIMs. In transport systems using LIMs, the secondary reaction plate is an important design factor, because it has considerable impact on the cost of the railway as well as the performance of the LIMs.

Heat treated whole cell of Aspergillus niger containing glucose oxidase-catalase system was entrapped in gelatin matrix crosslinked by glutaral-dehyde. The reaction characteristics of immobilized enzyme was studied in a fludized reactor. Heat treatment enhanced the stability and improved the properties of micellium for the immobilized process. The immobilized enzyme system showed the maximum activity at $35^{\circ}C$ and at pH 5.5. The optimum substrate concentration was 0.04M glucose. The activity of immobilized glucose oxidase was in proportion to the concentration of dissolved oxygen in reaction mixture as other reaction conditions were fixed. It was also demonstrated that the limiting factor for the activity of the immobilized glucose oxidase was the oxygen diffusion resistance which increases proportionally to the glucose concentration.

The reaction mechanisms and kinetics of tertiary butylhydroquinone(TBHQ) as an antioxidant in soybean oil oxidation were studied. The oxidation reaction of soybean oil at 55, 60 and $65^{\circ}C$ was a first order. The activation energies of soybean oil containing 0, 25, 50, and 75ppm TBHQ were 12.15, 6.05, 6.15 and 6.17kcal/mole. respectively. The addition of THQ to soybean oil containing 0, 25, 50, and 75ppm TBHQ were 1.88$\times${TEX}$10^{7}${/TEX}, 4.10$\times${TEX}$10^{2}${/TEX}, 4.32 $\times${TEX}$10^{2}$p/TEX} and 3.97$\times${TEX}$10^{2}${/TEX}, respectively. The decrease of frequency factor rather than the activation energy. The effects of antioxidants on the temperature dependecy of lipid oxidation could be effectively evaluated by measuring their effects on the activation energy of lipid oxidation.

Phase mixtures of Titanium boride, nitride, and carbide powder were produced by the reduction of a mixture of titanium and boron oxides with carbon via a gas-solid phase reaction. Boron oxides produce a vapour phase or decompose to a metal sub-oxide gaseous species when reduced at elevated temperature. The mechanism of BO sub-oxide gas formation from $B_2O_3$ and its subsequent reduction to titanium diboride for the production of uniform size hexagonal platelets is explained. These gaseous phases are critical for the formation of boride, nitride and carbide ceramics. For the production of ceramic phase composite microstructures, the nitrogen partial pressure was the most critical factor. Some calculated equilibrium phase fields has been verified experimentally. The theoretical approach therefore identifies conditions for the formation of phase mixtures. The thermodynamic and kinetic factors that govern the phase constituents are also discussed.

The cure characteristics of metal particle filled DGEBA/MDA/SN/ zeolite epoxy resin composite system for EMI shielding were investigated by dynamic DSC run method and FT-lR spectroscopy. As the heating rate increased, the peak temperature on dynamic DSC curve increased because of the rapid cure reaction. From the straight line of the Kissinger plot, the curing reaction activation energy and pre-exponential factor could be obtained. As the post-curing time at 15$0^{\circ}C$ increased, the glass increased the glass transition temperature or the thermal stability increased. When the post curing time is too long, the system filled with metallic Al particle can be thermally oxidized by the catalytic reaction of metal filler and the thermal stability of the composite for the EMI shielding application may be decreased.
