  • The present investigations were carried out with the purpose of making clear the fundamental features of the seasonal variations in chemical composition of the brown algae. Three species of samples, Ecklonia cava, Sargassum sagamianum and Hizikia fusiforme have been analyzed monthly for their contents of total ash, crude protein, alginic acid, mannitol, and laminarin over a year period. Three kinds of samples were collected from the same locality, situated on the southern coast of the Che-ju Island, from September 1966 to August 1967. In addition, the comparative analysis was made on fronds and stipes of the plant for their chemical composition. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1, In general, the three species examined underwent a similar mode of seasonal variation, and no essential difference was detected among them. 2. The chemical composition of the plant exhibited a considerable difference between the species. The content of total ash in H. fusiforme was remarkably higher than those in the two other species respectively. The alginic acid content was relatively high in S. sagamianum and low in H. fusiforme. The contents of crude protein, mannitol and laminarin were appreciably high in E. cava and low in H. fusiforme in general. 3. The most outstanding feature in the seasonal variation was that, in general, the total ash, crude protein, and alginic acid contents were at a maximum in the winter months while laminarin and mannitol contents were at a minimum. The converse was true in summer. Total ash-Maximum values were observed from December to February and minimum from August till October. Crude Protein-All species exhibited maxima in January and February, and minima from August to October. Alginic acid-Maximum contents occured from January to March and minimum from September to November. Mannitol-The maximum content of mannitol was In May and lune and minimum in January, February and March. Leminerin-Maximum content was in September and October, and minimum in January and February. 4. The wide seasonal variation in chemical constitution occured in the fronds, but the stipes showed a slight seasonal variation. In the chemical composition, the stipe was high in alginic acid, low in mannitol and laminarin. The reverse was in the frond.

  • To resolve the differentiation problem of acetone and acrolein in the analysis of carbonyls by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), we investigated the optimum analytical conditions for their separation. Carbonyl compounds were collected by 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH)-coated cartridges. We examined the influence of three experimental variables: temperature (25, 30, 40, 50 and 60 ${^{\circ}C}$), flow rate (1.0 and 1.2 mL/min), and relative mobile phase composition (among acetonitrile, water and tetrahydrofuran). The experimental results revealed the optimum analytical condition of a flow rate of 1.2 mL/min, temperature of 32 ${^{\circ}C}$ and mobile phase composition of acetonitrile: water: tetrahydrofuran = 34 : 52.8 : 13.2. The analysis of indoor air composition indicated that acrolein and acetone comprised 11% and 42% of all aldehydes, respectively.

  • The PbTiO3 is well known materials having remarkable ferroelectric, piezoelectric, and pyroelectric properties. PbTiO3 thin films with a perovskite structure were successfully fabricated on titanium substrate by chemical vapor deposition. These films were characterized according to composition, crystal structure, and electrical properties. Semi-quantitative compositional analysis of the deposited films was made by Auger Electron Spectroscopy(AES). The PbTiO3 film deposited on titanium substrate at the deposition temperature 75$0^{\circ}C$, the Ti(C2H5O)4 fraction 0.15, and O2 partial pressure 0.06atm, has a columnar structure and grows with(001) preferred orientation, and has stoichiometric composition. A clear dielectric transition and offset in the dc conductivity near the transition temperature(48$0^{\circ}C$) were observed in the deposited lead titanate film.

  • Ion permeability characteristics in nano-polymer membrane structures are performed to investigate the chemical composition and characteristics of MEA(Membrane Electrolyte Assembly) which is one of the most important parts to decide the performance in PEMFC(Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell) system. Subsequently, the MEA manufacturing process is presented for the uniformed MEA product. In the meantime, the analysis of SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope) is carried out in order to investigate the joint aspect and chemical composition of MEA. As a result of SEM analysis, it is found that the bonded catalyst and carbon composition contain the reasonable amount to get unit cell output. It is also found that the humidification gives the better performance result slightly.

  • The aggregation between cationic and anionic surfactants was studied by turbidimetric and nephelometric methods with emphasis on facile analysis of the surfactants and understanding of the mixed micellization. The turbidimetric titration of sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) or cetylpyridinium bromide (CPB) showed maximum turbidity at equimolar composition in the SDS concentration range of 0.1-0.9 mM. The nephelometric titration of the same systems extended the limit of analysis to 0.001 mM. The sodium salts of decylsulfate and sulfonate gave similar maxima, but not at equimolar composition. The coexistence of equimolar aggregates and mixed micelles were shown over broad composition range. The aggregation and mixed micellization of the anionic/cationic surfactants mixtures depended sensitively on the hydrophobic character of the surfactants.

  • Poly(ethylene 2, 6-naphthalate-co-tetramethylene 2, 6-naphthalate) (PEN/PBN) copolymers were synthesized and studied by 13C NMR spectroscopy, DSC analysis and X-ray diffraction. A minimum in the melting point vs. composition curve was found at approximately 60 mol% tetramethylene 2, 6-naphthalate. The PEN/PBN copolymers were shown to be statistically random throughout the range of 1, 4-butanediol compositions. The melting point depression behavior of annealed PEN/PBN copolymers depended upon the sequence propagation probability, PS, which is suggested by indivisual crystal formation of two pure comonomers; that is, ethylene-naphthalate-ethylene, EE, and tetramethylene-naphthalate-tetramethylene, BB. However, it can be seen from the X-ray curve that the peaks of PEN/PBN copolymers appear from a crystal lattice which is governed only by the rich component between two different aliphatic units in the copolymer composition.

  • The objective of this study is to check the applicability of the improved trait through the nutritional value of loin and the estimation of genetic parameter through the chemical composition analysis(moisture, crude fat, crude protein, crude ash) for Hanwoo carcass traits and loin. The data of 1kg of loin sampled and analyzed for 2,033 Hanwoo progeny test(steers) from $47^{th}$ to $57^{th}$ were used as the disclosure material used in this study. The study resulted that the heritability for carcass weight, eye muscle area, back fat thickness and marbling score which are Hanwoo carcass traits was estimated to be 0.37, 0.51, 0.44 and 0.57, respectively and the heritability for moisture, crude fat, crude protein and crude ash which are the chemical composition analysis to be 0.62, 0.64, 0.58 and 0.12, respectively. And the genetic correlation estimate between carcass weight and crude fat was 0.35, and marbling score with moisture, crude fat, crude protein and crude ash was -0.966, 0.964, -0.924 and -0.664, respectively. The genetic correlation between moisture and crude fat, crude protein was analyzed to be -0.998, 0.969 and a high genetic correlation was shown in crude fat and crude protein, -0.979. As the chemical composition analysis value showed high heritability in moisture, crude fat and crude protein, improved traits are considered to be available.

  • The crack in a J85 engine V.G. actuator arm shaft for a bell crank on the engine compressor was investigated. The crack was observed in twenty two shafts during the inspection of 238 shafts. The failure analysis of shaft cracks was performed by chemical composition analysis using ICP(Inductively Coupled Plasma) and by fracture surface and microstructure analysis using FE-SEM and optical microscope. The crack initiated from the top and bottom and propagated to the center along the grain boundaries. From the chemical composition analysis, the fractography of the fracture surface and the microstructure, it was found that the failure mechanism of the shafts is the inclusion-related intergranular decohesion crack. The inclusion was found out from MnS particle by EDS(Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy). The crack initiated MnS inclusion in the grain boundary and propagated with the increase of applied shear stress during long operation. In order to prevent the fracture, NDI(Nondestructive inspection) is needed periodically as recommended.

  • On this study, $CO_2$ gas, net of Ar gas, and mixed gas in solid wire(AWS ER 70S-6) and flux cored wire(AWS E71T-1) were used to weld on Mild steel(SS400). After the progress, the status changes of the welds in Mild steel(SS400) were investigated with compositional changes. For stable experiments, welding was conducted using the automatic feeder. Radiation testing, hardness testing, chemical composition analysis and penetrated cross-section were measured. Through these experiments, shapes of penetrated cross-section, chemical composition changes, and weld defects according to the variation of welding gas were known. Weld defects and weld cross-sectional shapes by the variation of the welding voltage were also detected.

  • Vibrio vulnificus endotoxin was extracted, analyzed the chemical composition, tested its biological activity, and compared to those of Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium. The major fatty acid of three endotoxins were different each other; V. vulnificus endotoxins were different each other; V. vulnificus endotoxin was myristric acid (C14:0), E. coli was lauric acid (C12:0), S. typhimurium was capric acid (C10:0). The biological activities of V. vulnificus endotoxin were similar to those of E. coli and S. typhimurium in terms of the gelation activity of the Limulus amebocyte lysate and the lethal toxicity. But the result of enzyme (AST, ALT, and LDH) analysis showed that the enzyme activity of V. vulnificus endotoxin was similar to that of E. coli, but smaller than that of S. typimurium.
