The purpose of this study is to investigate the properties of underwater concrete using three kinds of cellulose ether which has viscosity and water retention. The result is that water retention in underwater concrete shows in inverse proportion to PH value and the compressive strength is almostly effected by water retention. It can be certificated by the zeta electro potential value of an undispersed underwater concrete.

In this study, effects of alkali swelling at low concentration below 2 percent on properties of hardwood bleached kraft pulp (HwBKP) were elucidated. Swelling treatment of HwBKP was performed at various NaOH concentrations with/without beating. Then, the swelling characteristics of pulp fiber was evaluated by measuring the solvent retention values such as water retention value (WRV) and isopropyl alcohol retention value (LRV). It was found that fiber characteristics were influenced by NaOH swelling even at low alkali concentration and beating treatment as well. The values of WRV and LRV were decreased when the alkali concentration was increased. It is the result from the decreased acidic groups of pulp which were formed during beating. The acidic groups could be neutralized and then removed by alkali. The difference between WRV and LRV was decreased with increasing alkali concentration while the difference was increased when the alkali swollen pulp was beaten. In addition, the crystalline structure of HwBKP was almost not changed while the crystallinity was influenced by swelling treatment at a low alkali concentration.

In order to provide informations for designing packaging and storage condition of dry jujube (Zizyphus jujuba MILLER), moisture sorption isotherm was determined for temperatures of 20, 30 and 4$0^{\circ}C$, and quality changes were evaluated as function of temperature and water activity. Dry jujube at a given water activity showed higher equilibrium moisture content for lower temperature. Moisture isothem could be fitted by GAB model equation, giving higher C value, lower m0 and relatively constant k value with increase in temperature. Ascorbic acid was lost more highly at higher temperature and water activity, and showed negligible retention for whole range of water activity and temperature studied after 141 days. Browning increased with water activity up to 0.73 at 30 and 4$0^{\circ}C$. Dry jujube of high water activity had high L value in surface color, which represent brightness of surface color. Considering quality retention in the storage, dry jujube is desired to be dried to water activity of 0.42 and be stored at temperature below 3$0^{\circ}C$

To achieve a wide suction range, the low suction was imposed on compacted silt specimens by the axis translation technique and the high suction was imposed by the vapor equilibrium technique with saturated salt solutions. Firstly, the results of soil water retention tests on compacted silt show that the soil water retention curves in terms of gravimetric water content versus suction relation are independent of the dry density or void ratio in a high suction range. Therefore, triaxial tests on compacted silt with constant water content at high suctions can be considered as that with constant suction. Secondly, the results of triaxial shear tests on unsaturated compacted silt with the initial void ratio of about 0.75 show a strain-hardening behavior with a slightly shear contraction and then strain-softening behavior with an obviously dilation. As the imposed suction increases, the shear strength increases up to a peak value and then decreases when the suction is beyond a special value corresponding to the peak shear strength. The residual strength increases to fair value and those at high suctions are almost independent of imposed suctions. In addition, the contribution of suction to the strength of compacted silt would not diminish even in a high suction range.

Unsaturated soil at high suctions is widespread. Many civil engineering projects are related to the hydro-mechanical behavior of unsaturated soils at high suctions, particularly in arid and semiarid areas. To investigate water retention behaviors of nine clayey soils (one is classified as fat clay and the others are classified as lean clay according to the unified soil classification system), the high suction (3.29-286.7 MPa) was imposed on the specimens at zero net stress by the vapor equilibrium technique. In this paper, the effect of void ratio on the water retention behavior at high suction was discussed in detail. Validation data showed that soil types, i.e., different mineralogical compositions, are critical in the soil water retention behavior at a high suction range. Second, the hysteresis behavior at a high suction range is mainly related to the clay content and the specific surface area. And the mechanism of water retention and hysteresis behavior at high suctions was discussed. Moreover, the maximum suction is not a unique value, and it is crucial to determine the maximum suction value accurately, especially for the shear strength prediction at high suctions. If the soil consists of hydrophilic minerals such as montmorillonite and illite, the maximum suction will be lower than 10⁶ kPa. Finally, using the area of hysteresis to quantify the degree of hysteresis at a high suction range is proposed. There was a good correlation between the area of hydraulic hysteresis and the specific surface area.

Soil-water retention curve (SWRC) contains key information for the application of unsaturated soil mechanics principles to engineering practice. The SWRC variables are commonly used to describe the hydro-mechanics of soils. Generally, these parameters are determined using the graphical method which can be time consuming. The SWRC is highly dependent on the pore size distribution (PSD). Theoretically, the PSD obtained by mercury intrusion porosimetry test can be used to determine some SWRC variables. Moreover, the relationship between SWRC and shrinkage curve has been investigated. A new method to determine total SWRC variables directly without curve-fitting procedure is proposed. Substituting the variables into linear SWRC equations construct SWRC. A good agreement was obtained between predicted and measured SWRCs, indicating the validity of the proposed method for unimodal SWRC.

Polyurethane prepolymer에 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate(HEMA)와 acrylamide(AA)를 반응 시켜 두 가지 타입의 polyurethane-acrylate 중합체들을 합성하였다. 합성된 중합체들을 소량의 benzyl chloride와 증류수를 이용하여 수용성 중합체인 폴리우레탄-아크릴레이트계 양이온성 보류향상제를 제조하였다. 이렇게 두 가지 형태로 제조된 중합체에 대하여 보류향상제로서 중요한 특성인 보류, 탈수특성 및 비압축강도 등의 물성들을 다양한 방법으로 고찰하였다. 합성된 폴리우레탄-아크릴레이트계 양이온성 보류향상제는 rpm에 따라 큰 변화 없이 70% 내외의 보류도를 유지하였으며, 합성한 보류향상제의 첨가로 인한 화학적 산소 요구량(COD)의 경우는 미첨가시의 COD보다 상당히 낮은 값이 관찰되었다. 탈수량의 경우 무처리한 펄프보다 보류향상제의 처가 시에 탈수성이 향상되었으며, 보류향상제의 첨가 시 비압축강도가 소량 증가되었고, PU-HEMA가 PU-AA보다 우수한 강도를 나타내었다.

The quality parameters of sponge cake supplemented with soy protein concentrate (SPC) were evaluated. The addition of SPC to wheat flour increased the protein content and alkaline water retention value, but decreased the sedimentation value. Protein content had a positive correlation with the alkaline water retention value, and a negative correlation with the sedintentation value. The higher the concentration of SPC, the higher the RVA pasting temperature and the lower the viscosity. Increasing the level of SPC in flour led to a decrease in mixogram peak time, whereas peak height, width at peak, and width at 8 min progressively increased. As the amount of SPC increased in the formulation, the pH and specific gravity of cake batter increased, whereas the volume and specific volume of sponge cake decreased. The total isoflavones content in SPC increased after heat treatment. The hardness, gumminess, and chewiness increased progressively in accordance with increasing level of SPC.

WCT (Wet compaction test) is a new fiber evaluation method developed recently by Seo and its test results can be used as a predictor for pulp quality and its paper property Bleached chemical pulps (SwBKP, HwBKP), recycled pulp (OCC), and mechanical pulp (BCTMP) were used for the furnishes to be tested by WCT We compared the WCT results to conventional fiber evaluation tests such as WRV (Water Retention Value), free ness, and fiber length in this study, and found that WCT always gave better regression coefficients in relation to pulp quality (drainage), and paper properties (density, tensile, tear, and burst strength). WCT may be used on-line in papermachine.
