This study was performed to obtain the basic data which can be applied to the use of foaming mortars. The data was based on the properties of foaming mortars depending upon various mixing ratios and addings to compare those of cement mortar. The foaming agents which was used at this experiment were pre-foamed type and mix-foaming type which is being used as mortar structures. The foaming mortar, mixing ratios of cement to fine aggregate were 1:1, 1: 2, 1 : 3 and 1 : 4. The addings of foaming agents were 0.0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0%, 2.5% and 3.0% of cement weight. The results obtained were summarized as follows; 1. At the mixing ratio of 1 : 1, the lowest water-cement ratios were showed by foaming mortars, respectively. But it gradually was increased in poorer mixing ratio and decreased in more addition of foaming agent. The water-cement ratios were decreased up to 1. 8~22. 0% by G, 2. 2~24. 1 % by U and 0. 7~53. 1% by J foaming mortar than cement mortar. 2, At the mixing ratio of 1 : 1, the highest bulk densities were showed by foaming mortars, respectively. But, it gradually was decreased in poorer mixing ratio and more addition of foaming agent. The bulk densities were decreased up to 1. 4~20. 7% by G, 2. 3~23. 7% by U and 26. 5~56. 5% by J foaming mortar than cement mortar. Therefore, foaming mortar could be utilized to the constructions which need low strengths. 3. At the mixing ratio of 1:1, the lowest absorption rates were showed by foaming mortars, respectively. But, it gradually was increased in poorer mixing ratio and more addition of foaming agent. Specially, according to the absorption rate when immersed in 72 hours, the absorption rates were showed up to 1. 01~1. 24 times by G, 1. 03~1. 58 times by U and 1. 10~5. 91 times by J foaming mortar than cement mortar. It was significantly higher at the early stage of immersed time than cement mortar. 4. At the mixing ratio of 1:1, the lowest air contents were showed by foaming mortars, respectively. But, it gradually was increased in poorer mixing ratio and more addition of foaming agent. Air contents were contented up to 4. 0~17. 2 times by G, 5. 2~23. 2 times by U and 23. 8~74. 5 times by J foaming mortar than cement mortar. 5. At the mixing ratio of 1 : 1, the lowest decreasing rates of strengths were showed by foaming mortars, respectively. But, it gradually was increased in poorer mixing ratio and more addition of foaming agent. Specially, the strengths of 28 days were decreased 0. 4~2. 2% than those of 7 days by foaming mortar, respectively. Also, the correlations between compressive and tensile strength, compressive and ending strength, tensile and bending strength were highly significant as a straight line shaped, respectively. 6. The correlations between absorption rate, air content, compressive strength and bulk density, absorption rate, compressive strength and air content were highly significant, respectively. The multiple regression equations of water-cement ratio, bulk density, absorption ate, air content, compressive strength, tensile strength and bending strength were computed depending on a function of mixing ratio and addition of foaming agent. It was highly significant, respectively. 7. At the mixing ratio of 1 : 1, the highest strengths were showed by cement mortar and foaming mortars, by chemical reagents. But, it gradually was decreased in poorer mixing ratio. The decreasing rates of strengths were in order of H $_2$S0 $_4$, HNO$_3$ and HCI, J,U,G foaming mortar and cement mortar. Specially, at the each mixing ratio, each chemical reagent and 3.0% of foaming agent, J foaming mortar was collapsed obviously. Therefore, for the structures requiring acid resistence, adding of foaming agent should be lower than 3.0%.

This literature study is focused on the improvement of lightweight concrete in perspective of foaming agent. Lightweight concrete is the cured concrete as putting required amount of foaming agent to slurry which is a mixture of a certain amount of cement, sand, and water. It has lower density than general concrete, because foaming agent disintegrates numerous bubbles evenly and independently. Thus, it is capable of lightening the weight and great for sound absorption and insulation, In foreign countries, studies for structural lightweight concrete mainly of tunnel grouting and weight lightening of heavy structures are going along actively. Domestically, exterior panel and ALC blocks are alternatively used for flooring. Therefore, this research consider improvement of lightweight concrete in perspective of foaming agent with foundation study.

Pre-foaming, one of the manufacturing way of foamed concrete, is influenced by foaming agent. When the foaming agent diluted with water, surface tension and viscosity are varied. Therefore, this study is reviewing the surface tension, viscosity and unit weight of foam by experimental factor such as foaming agent types(AES, AOS, VS FP) and foam agent dilution concentration (1, 3, 5%) and temperature of materials (5, 10, 20℃). As an expeimental result, the surface tension and viscosity slightly increased with increasing concentrations. Meanwhile, when increasing temperature, the viscosity has decreased. FP produce relatively stable foams only in case 3% or more, which produce unstable foams containing large amount of water content by decreasing only insignificant surface tension when diluted at concentration of 1%.

This study was designed to elucidate the effects of lysozyme, clupeine, sucrose, and sodium chloride on the foaming properties of egg albumen and podered beef plasma. Surface tensions of egg albumen(5%, w/w) and powdered beef plasma(5%, w/w) adding to lysozyme, clupeine, sucrose, and sodium chloride were 46.8$\pm$0.379~52.4$\pm$ 0.404dyne/cm(control, 51.5$\pm$0.416dyne/cm) and 54.6$\pm$0.231~60.7$\pm$0.467dyne/cm(control, 53.9$\pm$0.153dyne/cm), respectively. Turbidities of the solutions were 77.0$\pm$0.058~97.9$\pm$ 0.058(control, 91.2$\pm$0.153) and 90.3$\pm$0.058~98.5$\pm$0.115 (control, 82.7$\pm$0.100), respectively. Surface hydrophobicities of the solutions were 524~811(control, 485) and 5102~ 7128(control, 4665), respectively. The solution with high hydrophobicity revealed good foaming properties. Analysis of egg albumen and powdered beef plasma foam by electrophoresis showed that lysozyme was retained for a long time in foam. The optimal concentraitons of lysozyme and clupeine for foaming properties were 0.5% and 0.3% in egg albumen(5%, w/w) and 0.5% and 0.5% in powdered beef plasma(5%, w/w), respectively. In case of egg albumen, sodium chloride dominantly enhanced the action of clupeine. The addition of 0.3% clupeine with sodium chloride(2.0M) to egg albumen(5%, w/w) increased overrun and foam stability by 119.5% and 70.9%, respectively. The addition of 0.5% clupeine to powdered beef plasma(5%, w/w) also increased overrun and foam stability by 43.7% and 127.3%, respectively.

Nowadays, the companies use polymer materials for many purposes fur they have many advantages. The costs of these materials take up too high a proportion of the overall cost of products that use these materials as their major material. It is advantage for polymer industries to reduce these costs. The microcellular foaming process was developed in the early 1980s to solve this problem and proved to be quite successful. Microcellular foaming process uses inert gases such as $CO_2,\;N_2$. As these gases solve into polymer matrices, many properties are changed. The microcellular foaming process makes the glass transition temperature of polymers to low, and diminish the residual stress of polymer matrices. Besides, the microcellular foaming process has several merits, impact strength elevation, thermal insulation, noise insulation, and raw material saving etc. In previous research, many facts of microcellular foaming process are founded its characteristics. But previous researcher found the characteristics of microcellular foaming process with pure gas, for example $CO_2,\;N_2$ and so on, they did not found the characteristics of microcellular foaming process with one more gases. If one more gases inlet the resin, the characteristics of microcellular foaming process is changed very amazingly. In this paper, discuss on the characteristics of microcellular foaming process wi th gas cocktail about cell morphology.

Egg white powders (EWPs) were produced after pH adjustment (PH 6-9) of fresh egg white, followed by spray-drying, and foaming and gelling properties of EWPs were examined. EWP produced after pH adjustment to 6.5 (EWP-6.5) resulted in significantly higher foaming ability and gel hardness than control and other pH-adjusted EWP. Significant increases in surface -SH content and surface hydrophobicity of EWP-6.5 coincided with improved foaming ability and gel hardness. Significantly higher consistency index for reconstituted EWP-6.5 indicates unfolding of egg white protein was substantially increased in EWP-6.5. Decreased a-helix content in EWP-6.5 was confirmed by circular dichroism spectral analysis. These results indicate pH adjustment prior to spray-drying leads to structural changes in egg white proteins, significantly affecting major functionalities of EWP.

Recently, inorganic-organic hybrid materials have attracted much attention not only for their excellent thermal conductivity but also for their flame retardant properties. In this study, the properties of organic-inorganic hybrid insulating materials using inorganic fillers and polyurethane foam with different foaming conditions have been investigated. The addition of 1.5 wt% water to polyurethane as foaming agent shows the best foaming properties. The pore size was decreased in the foaming body with increasing of the $CaCO_3$ addition. The apparent density and thermal conductivity were increased by increasing the $CaCO_3$ addition. With an increasing amount of $CaCO_3$ powder, the flame retardant property is improved, but the properties of thermal conductivity and apparent density tend to decrease. When the addition of fine particles of $CaCO_3$, the apparent density and thermal conductivity were increased and, also, with the addition of coarse particles over $45{\mu}m$ in size, the apparent density and thermal conductivity were increased as well. In this study, the adding of $CaCO_3$ with average particle size of $27{\mu}m$ led to the lowest thermal conductivity and apparent density. After evaluation with different inorganic fillers, $Mg(OH)_2$ showed the highest thermal conductivity; on the other hand, $CaCO_3$ showed the lowest thermal conductivity.

Macroporous pellets were prepared from industrial waste flyash by foaming method. The surface and inside of flyash pellets, the shape was almost spherical and the average size was about 3 mm, were composed of the spherical pores interconnected through windows. The controlling of pellet size was conducted with solid loading. The flyash pellets with different relative density were characterized for porosity, average pore size, and specific surface area. As results, most physical properties had a tendency to increase as relative density decreased - extension ratio increased. The correlation between relative density and other properties was inspected through microstructural features evaluated by SEM. As a result, high porosity and high specific surface area were estimated to result from the superior connectivity between pores.
