Physicochemical properties of potato starches oxidized with sodium hypochlorite containing 1.5, 3.0, 4.5, and 6.0% active Cl/g starch at pH 7.0 were examined. Carboxyl group contents of oxidized potato starches were proportional to active chlorine concentration in use and water binding capacity, alkali number, and solubility increased with increasing the degree of oxidation. Blue value and iodine binding property indicated the change of amylose structure by the oxidation. Gelatinization trends obtained from transmittance and DSC thermograms showed that gelatinization temperature was lower as starch was oxidized higher. X-ray diffraction patterns and scanning electron micrographs implied oxidation might occur on the surface amorphous regions of starch granule.

In this work, the natural indigo production process from Polygonum tinctorium was balanced based on the traditional Niram method in Korea. A standard procedure was determined considering the conditions of indican extraction from plant material, the amount of alkali for precipitation, storage of extract, etc. The effect of experimental conditions on the yield of crude dye was investigated. The contents of indigo and indirubin of the crude dyes were analyzed by HPLC. Increase of the amount of crude dye was observed within 1-2.5 days of extraction time. Longer extraction beyond 2.5 days resulted in a slight decrease in the amount of crude dye. There was no consistency in terms of indigo content depending on extraction pH. We found that the storage of extract or harvested plants affected adversely to dye yield and dye quality. Based on the lab scale extraction, large scale extraction was performed for 2-2.5 days in water and 2.0-2.5 g/L of $Ca(OH)_2$ was applied for precipitation of indigo dye. We obtained natural indigo dye containing about 15% of pure indigo in scale-up production using whole plant except root.

The photovoltaic properties of CIES cells on alumina substrate were improved by using the Na-doped Mo as theabotom layer of hilo back contact. Na was supplied to the CIGS bulk region from alumina/Na-doped Mo/Mo/alumina? structure, as same assimilar to the Na diffusion from soda-lime glass. The content diffusion of Na from Na-doped bfo was smaller more controlled than that from SLG. These Our results indicate that Na-doped bfo act as Na source material and contents of Na amount can be controlled without the use of an alkali barrier layer. The best CIGS solar cell with conversion efficiency of 13.34%, $J_{sc}=34.62mA/cm^2,\;V_{oc}=0.58V$ and FF=66% for an active area of $0.45cm^2$ on the alumina substrate was obtained in the condition of for 100nm Na-doped Mo/1000nm Mo.

Rice consumption per capta, in South Korea, has been decreased dramatically, owing to the changes of living patterns. Because of not only the major energy source of Korean people but also major income source of Korean farmers, diversifying end-use-quality of rice has been demanded. To the context, 'Suweon 472', a high yielding and early mature japonica line and released as 'Namilbyeo' to framers in 2002, was treated with a chemical mutagen, Sodium Azide to find endosperm mutant types. A total of nine endosperm mutat lines, including five waxy, one dull, two floury, and one white core type, were identified from the 3,542 mutatagen treated lines. Amylose contents, iodine reaction, disintegration in alkali solution, gelatinization in urea solution and amylogram properties of those nine endosperm mutant lines were evaluated to address the possibility as new genetic materials for diversifying rice quality of Korean japonica cultivars. All embryo mutants were clearly differentiated from their wild type, 'Suweon 472', in terms of physic-chemical properties evaluated. The endosperm mutant lines would be very useful in expanding untiliztation of rice through opening new rice markets of processed foods from Korean japonica rice.

Recently, the cement industry has been using various wastes as raw materials and fuel for cement as an eco-friendly business. However, most of these waste resources contain large amounts of chloride and alkali, which are concentrated in manufacturing facilities and adversely affect cement production products. Accordingly, in the cement production process, the chlorine ion contained in cement is managed by introducing the Chlorine Bypass System (CBS) into the manufacturing facility and releasing the dust. However, the processing volume of CBS-Dust has been limited due to the shortage of domestic processing companies, and the cost has also been raised, requiring measures to be taken in dealing with CBS-Dust. In this study, rheological properties of CBS-Dust incorporated paste are tested. With the increase of CBS-Dust, flow was decreased due to enhanced viscosity.

This study is performed to investigate the relation between cell components and hardness which affect to the quality of dried persimmons. Moisture contents of dried persimmons were interrange of 30 to 36%. Enpung Junsi (EJ), Dungsi (Young dong) (DY) and Haman Susi (HS) had higher moisture contents than Dungsi (Sang Ju) (DS), Kojongsi (KS) and Hagakure (HK). Hardness was high in the varieties which has low moisture content such as DS, KS and HK. The significant differences of hardness and fracturability among varieties were appeared conspicuously but those of cohesiveness, adhesiveness and springiness were not appeared. Crude cell wall content, pectin and calcium content of cell wall were high in hard varieties. In the pectin fractions, water soluble pectin content was high in EJ, HS and DY but that of acid and alkali soluble pectin were high in DS, KS and HK. The cell wall of high hardness varieties observed thick and firm than that of low hardness varieties.

Ion exchange strengthening is a chemical process whereby large alkali ions(such as potassium) are substituted for smaller ions(sodium) within the surfaces of glasses and ceramics, thereby reducing the thermal expansion coefficient of this surface region, and creating beneficial state of compressive stress within the near surface region. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of ion exchange and etching treatments on the strength of some dental porcelains. Two feldspathic dental porcelains(Vitadur-N, G-Cera) were used in this study. A commercial ion exchange paste and etching gel containing 8% hydrofluoric acid were used for surface conditioning. Transverse strength was measured using a universal testing machine and the technique of EPMA(electron probe micro analysis) was used to access the potassium contents. The results were as follows: 1. Improvement in strength was only obtained by treating the surface placed in tension. 2. No changes in the dimensions of the treated specimens were detected when samples were measured with a micrometer. 3. There was significant increase in transverse strength of G-Cera IV group treated with etching and ion exchange, compared with G-Cera II group only treated with ion exchange. 4. From the results of EPMA test, increase in potassium contents was observed on the surface treated with ion exchange paste.

The rice quality related traits including physico-chemical traits were evaluated with one hundred sixty-four MG RILs derived from the cross between Milyang 23, Indica/Japonica hybrid type, and Gihobyeo, Japonica type. The variation distribution of all traits examined approximately fit normal distribution and transgressive segregants over parents were observed for all traits. The occurrence of such transgression could be associated with the interactions of complementary QTL alleles from two parents. However in this study, it could not be concluded that our results of segregation were due to either complementary gene effects or overdominance of a major gene. These factors should be verified by further studies. Correlations between traits were evaluated by regressing phenotypic values of one trait on those of another traits. There are highly significant correlation between grain thickness with grain width, white core and white belly. But between white belly and alkali digestion value showed highly negative significant correlation. Contents of protein showed highly negative correlation with amylose and Mg/K ratio but showed highly correlation with K and Fat contents. Hardness of cooked rice showed highly correlation with adhesiveness, elasticity, gumminess, chewiness.

Thermomechanical pulping process uses large amounts of energy, mostly electricity to run electrical facilities. Thermomechanical pulp (TMP) made from Pinus densiflora also has a big drawback that refining consumes 90 per cent of the total energy used in TMP process. This study explored to draw up a way to save refining energy through different thermal treatment at the stages of presteaming and refining. Presteaming temperature was $80^{\circ}C$, $100^{\circ}C$, and $120^{\circ}C$. After presteaming at each temperature, refining was carried out at $100^{\circ}C$, $120^{\circ}C$, and $140^{\circ}C$ respectively. In a presteaming stage, steaming temperature over $120^{\circ}C$ greatly contributed to the decrease of refining energy leading to earlier attainment of a target freeness, irrespective of refining temperature. In addition, NaOH treatment with presteaming enhanced better development of fiber properties during refining than presteaming without NaOH. High temperature refining at $140^{\circ}C$ produced a high strength paper, and wood chips treated by alkali responded better to refining than at over $120^{\circ}C$. Improved softening effect on wood chips led to the decrease in shives contents but it gave no effect on pitch contents of TMP.
