Poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (EVA) was pyrolyzed to eliminate acetic acid of VA unit using off-line pyrolysis, and the deacetylated EVA was analyzed infrared spectroscopy (IR) and pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS). EVA film for deacetylation was prepared by solution casting on aluminum foil and it was pyrolyzed at low temperature of $300^{\circ}C$ in the off-line pyrolysis apparatus. After deacetylation, carbon-carbon double bond (C=C) was formed by 1,2-elimination of the VA unit in the EVA backbone. Most of C=C bonds were trans-1,4-unit and 1,2-unit was also observed. Presence of the 1,2-unit in deacetylated EVA indicates that terminal or branch VA units exist in the raw EVA. Py-GC/MS chromatogram of deacetylated EVA displayed much smaller acetic acid and much more abundant other pyrolysis products than that of raw EVA, which means that the pyrolysis efficiency and separation condition were improved.

This study was carried out to analyze the light and thermal environment in model greenhouse using infrared absorption film as shading screen and to compare with the case of no shading and using general shading screen such as aluminum foil-backed film, black polyethylene film and thermal blanket. PPFD(photosynthetic photon flux density) of inside the model greenhouse under infrared absorption film was increased by 22% than under general shading screen on the average. And temperature of inside air under infrared absorption film was 2$^{\circ}C$ lower than under general shading screen on the average. So, it is expected that infrared absorption film is useful as shading screen.

1-GW Iodine photodissociation Laser (λ=1.315${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$)is focused to generate the continuum x-ray radiation at titanium(z=22)target. A piced of aluminum(360 )-mylar(8${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) film is used to isolate the soft X-ray radiation emitted. Convex-xurved mica crystal spectrometer is used to obtain the soft x-ray spectra from the laser titanium target plasma and the slope of continum X-ray spectra are found to show two different different electron effective temperaturres, 0.11keV and 7.1KeV. We compare the two temperature result with the foil absorption method.

In this work we have experimentally observed the physisorption isotherms for nitrogen, TMS, cyclohexane, benzene, and n-hexane adsorbed on flat aluminum foil surface and have analyzed them theoretically on the basis of the theory proposed by Chang et al. The results show that the theory by Chang et al. can provide a useful means to describe the physisorption of gases on uniform flat solid surface which is essentially important for analysis of the pore volume distribution in porous solid surface. We have also discussed the application of the results obtained in this work to the analysis of pore volume distribution in porous alumina we reported previously.

In order to investigate the effects of addition of 1M sulfuric acid to the etching solution or 1M hydrochloric acid on the etching behavior of aluminum foil for electrolytic capacitors, the changes in the density of etch pit, the length and diameter of etch tunnels and the capacitance were analyzed using SEM, TEM, LCR meter etc. Sulfate ion as a corrosion inhibitor was contributed to the increase of the surface area comparing with chloride ion. By adding sul-furic acid the density of etch pit and the length of etched tunnel increased and the diameter of the tunnel decreased, resulting in the increase of capacitance. It was also shown that the capacitance decreased when the current density was below $0.9A/\textrm{cm}^2$, while remarkably increased in the other case.

AAO template having nano scale pores of high aspect ratio has been prepared through anodizing of aluminum foil in sulfuric acid electrolyte. The effect of anodizing parameters on the pore size and distribution was also examined to obtain the proper AAO as a template material of nanowire. The surface of AAO template prepared was observed by SEM to examine the mean size and distribution of pores generated by the anodizing and Fe nanowires obtained by AC electroforming using AAO template were also observed with TEM to determine the length and shape of them. From the results of work, it was found that the mean size or distribution of pores was influenced significantly by the anodizing parameters such as voltage and temperature of electrolyte. Mean length and aspect ratio of Fe nanowires prepared in the work were found to be $10{\mu}m\;and\;300\;to\;1,000$, respectively.

An attempt was made in this study to investigate the possibility of processing squid along with pork into an intermediate moisture food, as an acceptable new item in Korea. To obtain a palatable and low cost product, portions of mixture consisting of equal amounts of ground squid and pork were cooked in soy sauce for 20 min, soaked in glycerol for 20 min at $80^{\circ}C$, and then air dried for 90 min at $60^{\circ}C$. During storage for 42 days in saturated humidity incubator at $37^{\circ}C$, the total microbial counts of the products packaged in polyethylene (0.05 mm), polypropylene (0.05 mm) and plastic laminated aluminum foil were decreased from 230 per gram to 40, 20 and 10 per gram respectively. In another long range storage test of 6 months, the results paralleled the above trends. Even though the TBA value of the samples increased during the storage, it was not so serious as to damage on the organoleptic quality of this product. The results indicate that stored product was as acceptable as the freshly prepared one.

This paper describes a study on the effects of $Mg_2Si_{(p)}$ addition on the microstructure, porosity, and mechanical properties namely hardness and tensile properties of AA332 composite. Each composite respectively contains 5, 10, 15, and 20 wt% reinforcement particles developed by a stir-casting. The molten composite was stirred at 600 rpm and melted at $900^{\circ}C{\pm}5^{\circ}C$. The $Mg_2Si$ particles were wrapped in an aluminum foil to keep them from burning when melting. The findings revealed that the microstructure of $Mg_2Si_{(p)}/AA332$ consists of ${\alpha}$-Al, binary eutectic ($Al+Mg_2Si$), $Mg_2Si$ particles, and intermetallic compound. The intermetallic compound was identified as Fe-rich and Cu-rich, formed as polygonal or blocky, Chinese script, needle-like, and polyhendrons or "skeleton like". The porosity of $Mg_2Si_{(p)}/AA332$ composite increased from 8-10% and the density decreased from 9-12% from as-cast. Mechanical properties such as hardness increased for over 42% from as-cast and the highest UTS, elongation, and maximum Q.I were achieved in the sample of 10% $Mg_2Si$. The study concludes that combined with AA332, the amount of 10 wt% of$Mg_2Si$ is a suitable reinforcement quantity with the combination ofAA332.

In this study, the centrifugal tests were performed to evaluate the behavior of reinforced retaining wall that allows the settlement of reinforcement strip. To analyze the stability of reinforced retaining wall, which drives the settlement of reinforcement strip, the results were compared with the conventional reinforced retaining wall. In the centrifugal tests, the aluminum plate for the face was used and the aluminum foil was used as a reinforcement. The decomposed granite soil was adopted as a backfill. As a result, the settlement free reinforced retaining wall reached to the failure at 80g-level. In contrast, the conventional reinforced retaining wall was collapsed at 69g-level. It means that the settlement free reinforced retaining wall has the stronger stability than the conventional reinforced retaining wall. Also, vertical earth pressure of the settlement free reinforced retaining wall near the base of wall was higher 16% than that of the conventional reinforced retaining wall.

We have investigated the electrochemical factors affecting the magnetic properties of hard magnetic CoP nanowires and soft magnetic CoFe nanowires fabricated by ac electrodeposition into self-made AAO(anodic aluminum oxide) nano-templates. AAO template having nano scale pores of high aspect ratio has been prepared through 2-step anodizing of aluminum foil in sulfuric acid. Hard Magnetic properties of CoP nanowires were highly conditional on the applied ac potential which could be a decisive factor to make CoP nanowires made up of either pure hcp crystals or a mixture of hop crystals and fcc crystals. On the contrary to CoFe films, there was no anomalous codeposition in the electrodeposition of soft magnetic CoFe nanowires which exhibited their best saturation magnetization of 238 emu/g at the composition of $Co_{30}Fe_{70}$.
