Silica aerogel is a porous material with a very low density and high specific surface area. Still, its application is limited due to its weak mechanical properties due to structural features. To solve this problem, a method of complexing it with various polymers has been proposed. We synthesized polyimide cross-linked silica aerogel by the sol-gel process to obtain high mechanical properties. Tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) was used as a precursor to make silica aerogel, and 3- aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) was used as a coupling agent for cross-linking polyimide. Polyimide was synthesized using pyromellitic dianhydride and 3,5-diaminobenzoic acid, and mechanical properties were improved by crosslinking polyimide with 10 repeating units in the polyimide chain using the reaction formula ${\frac{n_1}{n_2}}={\frac{n}{n+1}}$ To realize silica aerogel, polyimide having various weight ratios was added before gelation, resulting in a 19-fold or greater increase in maximum compressive strength compared to pure silica aerogel. From this study, an enhancement of silica aerogel could be enhanced through polymer cross-linking bonds.

Polymerization shrinkage of photoinitiation type composite resin cause several clinical problems. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the shrinkage strain stress, linear polymerization shrinkage, compressive strength and microhardness of recently developed composite resins. The composite resins were divided into four groups according to the contents of matrix and filler type. Group I : $Denfil^{TM}$(Vericom, Korea) with conventional matrix, Group II : $Charmfil^{(R)}$(Dentkist, Korea) with microfiller and nanofller mixture, Group III : $Filtek^{TM}$ Z250(3M-ESPE, USA) TEGDMA replaced by UDMA and Bis-EMA(6) in the matrix, and Group IV : $Filtek^{TM}$ Supreme(3M-ESPE, USA) using pure nanofiller. Preparation of acrylic molds were followed by filling and curing with light gun. Strain gauges were attached to each sample and the leads were connected to a strainmeter. With strainmeter shrinkage strain stress and linear polymerization shrinkage was measured for 10 minutes. The data detected at 1 minute and 10 minutes were analysed statistically with ONE-way ANOVA test. To evaluate the mechanical properties of tested materials, compressive hardness test and microhardness test were also rendered. The results can be summarized as follows : 1. Filling materials in acrylic molds showed initial temporary expansion in the early phase of polymerization. This was followed by contraction with the rapid increase in strain stress during the first 1 minute and gradually decreased during post-gel shrinkage phase. After 1 minute, there's no statistical differences of strain stress between groups. The highest strain stress was found in group IV and followed by group III, I, II at 10 minutes-measurement(p>.05). In regression analysis of strain stress, group III showed minimal inclination and followed by group II, I, IV during 1 minute. 2. In linear polymerization shrinkage test, the composite resins in every group showed initial increase of shrinkage velocity during the first 1 minute, followed by gradually decrease of shrinkage velocity. After 1 minute, group IV and group III showed statistical difference(p<.05). After 10 minutes, there were statistical differences between group IV and group I, III(p<.05) and between group II and group III(p<.05). In regression analysis of linear polymerization shrinkage, group II showed minimal inclination and followed by group IV, III, I during 1 minute. 3. In compressive strength test, group III showed the highest strength and followed by group II, IV, I. There were statistical differences between group III and group IV, I(p<.05). 4. In microhardness test, upper surfaces showed higher value than lower surfaces in every group(p<.05).

Processing conditions of mackerel sausage were optimized for number of washes (0, 1, 2, and 3 times) and percentages of various additives: salt (1, 1.5, 2, 3%), phosphate complex (0.1, 0.3, 0.5%), sugar (1, 2, 3%), and corn starch (1, 3, 5%). The whiteness of mackerel sausage significantly increased with increasing washing time, but the whiteness of mackerel sausage prepared with additives did not show large differences. Conditions consisting of two washes, 2% salt, 2% sugar, and 5% corn starch showed the highest hardness and gel strength, whereas the group supplemented with phosphate complex showed no considerable differences compared to the control. In the sensory evaluation, the mackerel sausage prepared with two washes compared to the control scored higher for color, aroma, and overall preference. In addition, mackerel sausage supplemented with 2% salt, 2% sugar, and 5% corn starch scored highest in overall preference. There was no significant difference in mackerel sausage supplemented with phosphate complex. Therefore, these results suggest the optimal conditions for improving the texture and sensory properties of mackerel sausage were two washes, 2% salt, 0.5% phosphate complex, 2% sugar, and 5% corn starch.

This study was carried out to compare of yield, physico-chemical and sensory characteristics for chicken surimi manufactured by alkaline (pH 11) adjustment with different raw materials. Four experimental groups were surimi with chicken breast (T1) and chicken leg (T2) by spent hen, SF-MDCM (T3) and JY-MDCM (T4). Yield was higher in order of T1>T2>T3>T4 (p<0.05). The yield, physico-chemical and sensory characteristics of T1 were significantly higher than those of other treatments. Especially, $L^*$ and W value, shear force, textural properties, folding test, breaking force, gel strength, breaking $force{\times}deformation$, flavor, color and overall acceptability were higher in T1 but ar value, cooking loss, collagen and myoglobin content of T1 were lower than those of other treatments (p<0.05). Deformation, aroma, juiciness, tenderness were higher but met-myoglobin and yield of T4 were lower than those of T2 and T3 (p<0.05). Crude fat cooking loss and met-myoglobin content were higher in T2 but $b^*$ value, brittleness, hardness, gumminess, chewiness, folding test, breaking $force{\times}deformation$ and aroma of T2 were lower than those of other treatments (p<0.05). pH, collagen and moisture content and br value were higher but crude protein, folding test, $L^*$ and W value, cohesiveness, tenderness of T3 were lower than those of other treatmene (p<0.05). Correlation coefficients (r>0.8) between folding test and other items was positive in crude protein $L^*$ value, shear force and cohesiveness but negative in moisture content (p<0.05).

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of washing time and the addition of sodium chloride(2%) on the quality characteristics of surimi made with chicken breast. The control(C) prepared from Alaska pollack was washed 2 times without sodium chloride. For the test treatments, ground chicken breast was washed 2 times only(T1), washed 2 times followed by the addition of sodium chloride(T2), washed 3 times(T3), washed 4 times with added sodium chloride(T4), washed 6 times(T5), and washed 6 times with added sodium chloride(T6) to produce chicken breast surimi. The $L^*,\;a^*$, W, shear force, and juiciness values were significantly higher, but the hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, aroma, flavor, and overall acceptability of Tl were significantly lower than those of the control(p<0.05). The $L^*$ value decreased as the washing time increased, and the $a^*$ and W values were significantly higher, however the hardness, breaking force, gel strength, shear force, and overall sensory scores of the samples washed 2 times were lower than those washed 4 and 6 times (p<0.05). The $L^*,\;b^*$, and shear force values were significantly lower but the $a^*$, W, hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, folding test results and overall sensory scores were significantly higher due to the addition of sodium chloride (p<0.05). The correlation coefficients(r>0.6) for the overall sensory scores and other items were positive for the folding test, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and flavor, but negative for shear force(p<0.05). Overall, T4 had the highest qualities and economic value among all treatments.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of cryoprotectants(sugar, sorbitol, polyphosphate) on quality properties of chicken breast surimi manufactured by pH adjustment(pH 11.0) during frozen storage. Final surimi was divided into experimental units to which the following treatments were randomly assigned: C(Alaska pollack surimi, two times washing, 4% sugar＋5% sorbitol＋0.3% polyphosphate additive); T1(chicken breast surimi, 0.3% polyphosphate additive); T2(chicken breast surimi, 5% sorbitol ＋0.3% polyphosphate additive); T3(chicken breast surimi, 4% sugar＋5% sorbitol＋0.3% polyphosphate additive). All amino acid contents of control were higher than those of all treatments, while T2 was higher in amino acid contents among the treatments. Shear force of all treatments were higher than that of control, but the breaking force, deformation and gel strength were lower. The TBARS(thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) and VBN(volatile basic nitrogen) values of all treatments were lower than those of control, The TBARS values of all treatments were increased with increased storage period. In sensory evaluation, the score of appearance, meat color and overall acceptability of control were higher than those of all treatments, but aroma, juiciness and tenderness were lower than those for all treatments.

This study was conducted to provide fundamental information in developing muscle-specific strategies to improve the quality and value of low-fat pork cuts upon evaluating meat qualitative parameters of twenty one (21) muscle samples selected from ten (10) market-weighted crossbred pigs. The following observations were made. The pH was highest for subscpularis and lowest for gluteus superrificialis (p<0.05); the subscpularis can hold water the most (p<0.05), biceps femoris loses the most content upon cooking, while subscpularis loses the least content (p<0.05); gluteus superrificialis (p<0.05) has the most purge loss contents, and infraspanatus and gastrocneminus contained the most collagen, while adductor had the least collagen (p<0.05); biceps femoris has the most WB-shear force values while subscpularis (p<0.05) has the least; pectoralis profundi-fan was the most protein soluble; semitendinosus has the most gel strength (p<0.05). In the properties of meat color, tensor fasciae latae shows the highest CIE $L^*$ (lightness) values (p<0.05) and supraspinatus, brachiocephalicus and infraspanatus have the highest CIE $a^*$ (redness, p<0.05) values; vastus intermedius has the most myoglobin content while longissimus dorsi (p<0.05) has the least; infraspanatus is the most tender (one of the sensory properties) while biceps femoris was the most tough among all tested muscles (p<0.05); the pectoralis profundi-fan was the most flavorful pork while vastus intermedius was the least (p<0.05); supraspinatus, infraspanatus, semitendinosus, and vastus intermedius were juiciest while longissimus dorsi was the driest (p<0.05). In overall likeness, the semitendinosus and infraspanatus were most liked while biceps femoris and longissimus dorsi were the least (p<0.05). This study presents the results of several parameters in selected pork muscle samples which are useful information for developing new muscle-specific strategies to improve the quality of consuming meat and meat products.
