The degree of conversion of composite resin was known to have influence on the mechanical properties of composite materials such as hardness, strength, wear resisitance, dimensional and color stability. Also unreacted monomer was reported to be harmful to the pulp. So the degree of conversion was a very important factor in the success of composite resin restorations. In recent, the dual cure resin cement was developed with the advocations that it could increase the curing rates in the sites where the curing ligt could not reach. Moreover many manufactors added some adhesive components in the resin cement. This study was undertaken to observe the effects of curing depth and light curing times on the degree of conversion of dual cure resin cements. CR INLAY CEMENT, DUAL CEMENT and OPTEC BOND, by the Fourier transform Infrared analysis, changing the curing depth 1mm, 2mm and 3mm, and varying the light curing time 20 seconds, 40 seconds and 80 seconds at each depth. The cytotoxicity of dual cure resin cements was tested by the in vitro MTT method using L929 cell. The results was evaluated and compared statistically. The results were obtained as follows : 1. The dual cure resin cements reavealed various degree of conversion, CR INLAY CEMENT and DUAL CEMENT had a tendency to be more reactive to the light cure and OPTEC BOND was a more chemical one. 2. CR INLAY CEMENT and DUAL CEMENT showed the lowest degree of conversion in 2 mm depth, and in 3mm depth the degree of conversion increased, which were due to the chemical cure of dual cures, but OPTEC BOND showed decreasing degree of conversion with increasing curing dept h and all experimental groups showed lower degree of conversion than CHEMICAL group which cured in dark room with no light, so the weak light-curing of dual cure resin cement prevented the chemical cure. (P<0.05) 3. CR INLAY CEMENT and DUAL CEMENT showed increasing degree of conversion in 1 mm and 3 mm, according to the increasing cure times, but in 2 mm depth the degree of conversion decreased with increasing light-curing times and OPTEC BOND showed contrary tendency, but there was no ststistical importance in the differences among the experimental group.(P>0.05) 4. The optical density by MTT assay of extractions of CR INLAY CEMENT, DUAL CEMENT and OPTEC BOND revealed no statitically important differences comparing with optical density of negative control.(P>0.05) 5. CR INLAY CEMENT showed a tendency of increaing cytotoxicity with days and DUAL CEMENT and OPTEC BOND showed higher cytotoxicity in 2 days than in 4 days, but there was no statistical importance in the differences.(P>0.05).

It was aimed to study the chemical characteristics and volatile compounds of juices extracted by press (PE) and centrifugal extractors (CE). Citrons cut up cross direction were used as samples in PE. Proportion ratio of peel, flesh, and seed of citron were 43.9, 39.4 and 16.7%, respectively. Yield of juice increased with weight to 120g of citron fruit. pH, brix, pulp, oily materials, amino nitrogen and yield of juice extracted by CE were higher than those of juice by PE. Acidity and transmittance of juice extracted by PE were higher than those of juice by CE. Free sugars of citron juice were consisted of fructose, glucose and sucrose. Free sugar contents of juice by CE were twice as much as those of PE. Major volatile compounds of total steam distillation matters of citron juice extracted by PE were dl-limonene, ${\gamma}-terpinene\;{\beta}-farnesene$, sabinene, linalool, ${\beta}-myrcene$ and terpinolene, while those by CE were dl-limonene, ${\gamma}-terpinene$, sabinene, ${\beta}-myrcene,\;{\alpha}-pinene$, linalool and terpinolene. dl-Limonene and ${\gamma}-terpinene$ consisted of $73{\sim}83%$ of total volatile compounds. dl-Limonene of juice by CE increased about 6% that of juice by PE. ${\beta}-Farnesene$ were observed trace in juice by CE but presented in 7% in juice by PE. The results would suggested that chemical characteristics and volatile compounds of citron juice seemed to depend on extraction methods.

In this study, rare earth elements (REE) leaching from a refractory REE ore containing goethite as a major gangue mineral was conducted, introducing a two-stage method of chemical decomposition-acid leaching. At the chemical decomposition step, using one of alkaline agent, NaOH, the ore was decomposed, changing NaOH concentration from 20 to 50 wt% at 10% (w/w) of pulp density and the maximum temperature achieved without boiling at each NaOH concentration. With increasing NaOH concentration, light REE (Ce, La and Nd) and iron were concentrated in the solid phase which is the decomposed product, while aluminum (Al) and phosphorus (P) were removed to the liquid phase, and their concentrations in the solid phase were down to 0.96 and 0.17%, respectively. In addition, through XRD analysis, it was found that the crystallinity of goethite was considerably decreased. At the acid leaching step, the product decomposed by 50 wt% NaOH was leached at 3.0 M HCl and 80 ℃ for 3 hr, then the REE leaching efficiency was above 94% (Ce 80%), and the leaching efficiencies of Al and P were decreased to 12 and 0%, respectively. Therefore, in terms of both REE leaching efficiency and impurity removal, those decomposition and leaching conditions were chosen as optimum processing methods of the investigated material. In terms of REE leaching mechanism, because REE and iron leaching efficiencies showed the positive correlation each other, so it can be concluded that decreasing crystallinity of goethite affect the improvement of REE leaching.

In order to find an alternative source of inoculum to caecal content for studying the fermentation activity of rabbit hindgut, caecal content and faeces of 25 hybrid Hyla rabbits were used as inocula for an in vitro gas production trial. About 1 g of three substrates (dehydrated alfalfa meal, dehydrated beet pulp, barley) was weighed, in quadruplicate per inoculum, in 120 ml bottles; 75 ml of anaerobic medium and 4 ml of reducing solution were added and bottles were placed at $39^{\circ}C$. Caecal content and faeces were diluted respectively 1:2 (CI) and 1:8 (FI) with anaerobic medium and were introduced in the respective bottles (10 ml). Gas production was recorded 20 times at 2-24 h intervals throughout fermentation (96 h). The fermentation characteristics (i.e. degraded organic matter, OMd; potential gas production, A; fermentation rate, Rmax; time at which it is reached, Tmax; pH, volatile fatty acid, VFA) were studied by inoculum and feedstuffs. The feedstuffs, according to their chemical composition, showed very different fermentation characteristics. In particular, OMd, A and Rmax allowed feedstuff classification as follows: barley>beet pulp>alfalfa. The inocula differ (p<0.05) in Tmax, were higher for CI (15.53 vs. 11.96 h) and in VFA production. In particular, CI produced higher levels of acetate (38.9 vs. 33.4 mM/g OM incubated, p<0.01) and isobutyrate (0.72 vs. 0.42, p<0.01) but less propionate (7.1 vs. 10.3, p<0.01) and butyrate (11.3 vs. 14.0, p<0.01). However, the trend of gas production, similar for the inocula according to the fermented substrate, and the good regression equation to estimate some caecal fermentation parameters from faeces suggest that, after standardisation, the faeces could be used as an alternative inoculum for gas tests in rabbit.

White ledger usually includes white office paper, computer paper, and copy machine paper. Because these grades need high optical properties, fluorescent whitening agents (FWAs) are widely used in the papermaking process. FWAs are the most powerful and effective chemical used to obtain high CIE whiteness and ISO brightness in papers. The rising demand for white or ultra-white papers has increased the use of FWAs. However, FWAs used in white ledger can restrict its use, even though white ledger is widely used as a raw material in paperboard mills. Therefore, it is necessary to develop methods to control FWAs from white ledger to increase its use in paperboard mills. In this study, the behaviors of disulpho fluorescent whitening agent (D-FWA), tetrasulpo fluorescent whitening agent (T-FWA), and hexasulpho fluorescent whitening agent (H-FWA) during the recycling process were identified as a first step to remove FWAs from white ledger. We prepared four types of papers (dyed with D-FWA, T-FWA, and H-FWA), disintegrated these papers, and made handsheets. This recycling process was carried out three times in a laboratory. After each round of recycling, the hand-sheets' CIE whiteness and fluorescence index were measured, and the distribution of FWAs in the Z-direction was observed using CLSM images. FWA reductions in the model papers were calculated using fluorescence indices as a function of the number of recycling. FWAs in handsheets containing T-FWA and H-FWA decreased linearly as a function of the number of recycling, but D-FWA did not show a significant reduction in the fluorescence index after recycling. T-FWA and H-FWA showed similar distributions of D-FWA after recycling. Therefore, as much T-FWA and H-FWA as possible must be detached in the early processes of papermaking at paperboard mills.

종이는 제조 후 시간의 경과에 따라 노화가 야기되기 시작하며 이에 수반되는 현상으로서 종이의 기계적 강도 손실 및 종이의 색 변화를 들 수 있다. 종이의 노화 현상은 주로 빛, 열, 대기 오염물질, 미생물, 곤충 및 화학약품 등의 외부 인자들에 의해 종이 내에서의 가수 분해 또는 산화작용을 발생시키며 이는 종이의 폭넓은 이용올 제한하는 중요한 원인이 되고 있다. 종이의 노화기작은 주로 산 가수분해 및 산화작용 그리고 가교결합 둥으로 해석되고 있다. 이는 종이의 주 구성요소인 셀룰로오스의 수산기가 반웅하여 카르보닐기를 형성하면 서 저분자화 되거나 산소에 의해 산화되면서 저분자화 되어 종이의 강도적 손실이 일어난다 고 보고되고 있으며 종이의 황색화(Yellowing) 현상은 주원인이 종이에 잔존하고 있는 리그 년이 빛과 열에 의해 반응하여 산화됨으로써 야기된다고 설명되고 있다. 즉, 열이나 자외선 및 가시광션의 조사로 인한 셀룰로오스 및 기타 종이 구성물의 산화에 의해 종이가 퇴색되 거나 강도가 저하되는 현상이 일어나게 된다. 특히 이러한 노화 거동은 상온의 경우에서는 펄프와 종이의 황색화가 천천히 일어나지만 옹도가 점차 올라갈수록 그 속도는 빨라진다. 종이가 노화되면서 일어나는 산화반용은 주로 대기 중의 산소와 접촉하기 쉬운 표변에서부 터 발생하기 쉽다. 열처리를 통해 표면에서의 산화 작용은 촉진되고 종이의 구성원소의 결 합에 화학적 변화가 야기된다. 이를 분석하기 위해서 모든 원소가 독특한 결합에너지를 가 지고 있다는 것에 착안 시료 표면에 특정 x-선 및 전자빔을 입사하여 방출하는 광전자의 에너지를 측정함으로써 시료 표면의 조성 및 화학적인 결합상태를 알 수 있는 ESCA ( (Electron Spectroscopy for Chemical Analysis)를 이용하였다 .. ESCA는 주로 표면 원소의 규 명 및 정량분석과 화학결합 상태의 정성, 정량 분석, 깊이에 따른 원소의 농도 분포 분석, 고분자화합물의 특성 조사, 표면 원소의 화학결합에 따른 전자상태 연구 둥에 활용되 고 있 다. 즉, 종이가 노화되면서 원소들 사이에 변화되는 결합을 이러한 에너지 분석에 의해 원소 정성분석 또는 정량분석을 하고자 하였으며, 이를 분석하여 열처리 시 종이 표면에서 일어 나는 변화를 구명하고자 하였다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 종이의 노화를 가속화시키는 빛, 대기오염물질, 및 기타 다른 인 자들은 배제하고 열 만을 가해 노화의 진행속도를 높인 후, 노화 진행 시 종이 표변에 일어 나는 산화작용 및 가수분해를 표면 분석 장치인 ESCA를 이용하여 종이의 주 구성원소인 탄소와 산소가 열처리 시 변하는 에너지를 측정하였다. 또한 카르복실기 정량과 종이의 pH 측정 및 X -ray Diffractometer를 이용하여 결정화도를 측정하였다. 본 연구의 결과, 시간의 경과에 따라서 탄소의 결합에너지는 분포가 C-H에서 COO-, 또는 C=O로 달라짐으로써 종 이가 산화되고 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 이 결합에너지 분포의 변화가 펄프의 종류 에 따라서 다르게 이동함으로써 제조된 시트의 표면 산화반응이 서로 다르게 일어나고 있음 을 알 수 있었으며, 이는 사용한 펄프의 화학 조성분의 차이에 기인한 것이라 사료된다.

Most of the materials used in various industrial fields and also in our daily life are multi-component materials or composite materials, and it is well known that there are many cases where adhesion between the constituents within the bonded systems plays an important role. There are various types of performance evaluation tests for the bonded materials, among which tests for evaluating the bond performance under various conditions may be regarded as the most interesting ones for those engaged in work related to adhesion. I have studied on the mechanism of adhesion form the rheological standpoint with my colleagues, including some students from Korea, and I am very happy to be able to have a talk on some of our research works. In Japan, the so-called "adhesives" are usually classified into two categories;adhesives and pressure sensitive adhesives (PSA). Adhesives are the materials which solidify after bonding and are after used as the structural adhesives because the adhesive strength is comparatively strong. On the other hand, the pressure sensitive adhesives never solidify and are used as PSA tapes, labels or decals. About the adhesives, we have examined the dependence of adhesive strength(shear, tensile, peel) upon both temperature and rate of deformation, and found out some empirical rules which are applicable to most of the adhesive systems. We have also developed a simplified theory of adhesion, which is deseribed in terms of mechanical equivalent mode1 and a few failure criteria. Although some of the common rules can be accounted for according to this theory, it must be pointed out that a fracture mechanical approach ms inevitable especially in the region where the meehanical relaxation time of the adhesive is extremely large [W. W. Lim and H. Mizumachi]. About the pressure sensitive adhesives, we have studied on the PSA performance (peel, tack, holding power) as a function of both the viscoelastic properties and surface chemical properties of the materials, and found out some rules, and again we have developed a theory which deseribes the mechanism. And in addition, we have studied on the miscibility between linear polymers and oligomers, because PSA is generally manufactured by blending gums and tackifier resins. Many phase diagrams have been found and some of them have been analyzed on thermodynamic basis, and it became evident that the miscibility is a very important factor in PSA [H. J. Kin and H. Mizumachi]. In this presentation, I want to emphasize the fact that the adhesion performance is closely related to the structure/property of the adhesives.adhesives.

This study was made to investigate the effect of variation in pulping process conditions such as wastepaper blending treatments, temperature, and chemical blending treatments on the deinked pulp. Design of experiments was used to select the major factors which significantly influenced on the deinked pulp. As one of the statistical analysis technique, analysis of variance and multiple comparison technique was used to find the best process condition and the predicted values and confidence intervals for brightness and strength were obtained. In the condition of $Na_2SiO_3$ 2.0%, $H_2O_2$ 0.5% and wastepaper blending treatments (KONP : AONP : OMG = 40 : 30 : 30 wt %) the highest brightness of 50.5% was predicted with 90% confidence interval (49.0, 52.0). On a concentration of $H_2O_2$ 0.5%, the highest tensile index of $35.7N{\cdot}m/g$ was predicted with 90% confidence interval (34.6, 36.6) at the pulping temperature of $50^{\circ}C$. On a concentration of surfactant 0.1%, the highest burst index of $0.129kPa{\cdot}m^2/g$ was predicted with 90% confidence interval (0.125, 0.133) at the pulping temperature of $50^{\circ}C$.
