Rhtological properties of surimi gel from white fishes by acid (acid surimi) and alkali (alkali surmi) process and effect of chemicals on gelation were investigated by punch and dynamic tests. The breaking force and deformation values of heat-induced gel of acid surimi were less than their values of alkali and conventional surimi gel, and whiteness was greatly decreased, Gel point of acid surimi was decreased but it of alkali surimi was increased with increasing moisture content in the range of 80 to $85\%$. Storage modulus of acid surimi was the highest vaule in pH 6.8, but that of alkali surimi showed high value at neutral and slightly alkali pH. Propylene glycol increased storage modulus in $20\~50^{\circ}C$, hut urea and 2-mercaptoethanol suppressed it. Potassium bromide improved storage modulus in $20~80^{\circ}C$, The results suggest that alkai process is used for making surimi instead of conventional method.

Imported seaweeds Gracilaria sp. and Gelidium sp. from the Philippines and Gracilaria sp. from Brazil were subjected to the examination of yield and quality of agar according to various pretreatment conditions. As pretreatment condition for alkali-treated Gracilaria sp. from the Philippines, $0.05{\sim}0.1%$ concentration of sulfuric acid was proper to obtain the higher yield of agar for which a reverse proportionality was shown between the acid concentration and the strength of extraction condition. Highest yield from Gelidium sp. from the Philippines was obtained by pretreating with 5% sodium hydroxide at $90^{\circ}C$ for one hour, followed by 0.1% sulfuric acid treatment. Gracilaria sp. from Brazil gave the highest yield of agar by pretreatments with 1% sodium hydroxide followed by 0.05% sulfuric acid, both at room temperature for one hour. Acid treatment of alkali-treated Gracilaria sp. from the Philippines brought about the decrease of total nitrogen, total sulfur and crude ash, the increase of jelly strength and no marked change in gelation point and gelation ability. In general, acid-treatment conditions to give rise to high yield of agar improved the quality of product.

Domestic seaweeds Gracilaria verrucosa collected from coastal areas of Namhae, Wando and Yeosoo, Korea were subjected to the examination of yield and quality of agar prepared according to various pretreatment conditions. In alkali treatment at high temperature, higher alkali concentration for one-hour period at $90^{\circ}C$ gave rise to higher yield of agar. In acid treatment, higher yield was obtained by higher acid concentration and longer treating period. Alkali treatment at room temperature gave rise to a slightly decreased yield at higher alkali concentration and longer treating time. Total nitrogen and crude ash of agar samples were greatly decreased by pretreatments. Jelly strength, gelation ability, gelation point and viscosity of agar samples tended to increase as the alkali-treating condition of seaweed became stronger. It was shown that sulfur content of agar had a high negative correlation with jelly strength of its gel. Various alkali treatments of seaweed at room temperature showed no marked difference in agar quality and did not exhibit any good effect comparable to alkali treatment at high temperature.

The cure behavior of commercial epoxy molding compounds (EMC) commonly used for IC package was studied at constant cure temperatures as well as at constant heating rates using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), rheometer, and dielectric analyzer (DEA). The cure kinetics were obtained using autocatalytic reaction model according to the Ryan Dutta method after assuming m+n equal to 2. The prediction of reaction rates by the model equation corresponded well to experimental data at all temperatures except for 10$0^{\circ}C$. The phase transitions such as gelation and vitrification occurred during network formation. At each isothermal cure temperature, $T_{g}$ was measured in accordance with cure time, and the vitrification point was attained when $T_{g}$ was equal to $T_{cure}$. The temperature dependence of gel points and vitrification points showed good agreement with Arrhenius relation. DEA using parallel plate electrode was effective for the monitoring of EMC cure. we knew that if the resin systems are materials of comparable quality, $_{gel}$$T_{g}$ is constant regardless of accelerator concentration in TTT (Time-Temperature-Transformation) diagram.

The effect of aminosiloxane modifier on the chemorheological properties of ortho-cresol novolac epoxy/phenol novelac/triphnylphosphine resin system was investigated aat different isothermal curing temperatures. By adding the aminosiloxane to the resin system, not only conversion rate and conversion were increased but also glass transition temperature was promoted. Critical conversion and gelation time obtained at the crossover point between storage and loss moduli were reduced and thus the viscosity was increased by the aminosiloxane. $C_1$ and $C_2$ in the WLF equation calculated from the glass transition temperature as a function of conversion and measured viscosity were found to vary with the curing temperature. By applying the change of glass transition temperature with conversion, $C_1$ and $C_2$ to WLF equation, it was possible to predict accurately the viscosity change with isothermal curing reaction.

What satisfies the desire of human beings about taste most easily is sweet taste, and it has seemed that the pronoun of sweet taste is sugar. Sugar is used in confectionery and bread-making essentially, and it has influence on the structure and touch of baked confectionery. In addition, if we soften the and apply heat, coloring is made. Thus, it colors good. It doesn't have a sweet taste, but it has the effect to emit fragrance variously, balance and soften the product. The kinds of sugar are very diverse, and it is sugar to be referred to as white sugar is used most frequently. In this study, this researcher examined the classification of physicochemical property and melting point etc. of sugar in confectionery and bread-making through theoretical study, about the simple classification of sugar. In addition, this researcher approached about the role of sugar in confectionery and bread-making and about the influence to have when it is more or less than proper quantity, centering around function. As the result, this researcher extracted the importance of sugar in confectionery and bread-making. It means that the increase of 5% of sugar quantity decreases the absorption quantity of moisture by 1% in bread-making and that the excess of 8% of sugar slow the action of yeast in straight method. Besides, there are the properties such as absorptive property, permeability, storage nature, aging prevention of starch, oxidation restraint of oils and fats, the gelation action of pectin, the fermentation acceleration of yeast, and the emulsification-maintaining-nautre and antiseptics effect of fat-soluble material. And in confectionery, sugar makes fragrance and peel color, increases the storage nature with moisture maintenance and has the softening effect. So, it is considered that the attitude to study and make efforts continuously on the basis of the role of sugar will have to be unfolded in confectionery and bread-making.

A laboratory study was made to develop a simple and economic model method for the systematic determination of functional properties of 'Soy Protein Isolates (SPI)' prepared from defatted soybean meal. These are required to evaluate and to predict how SPI may behave in specific systems and such proteins can be used to simulate or replace conventional proteins. Data concerning the effects of pH, salt concentration, temperature, and protein concentration on the functional properties which include solubility, heat denaturation, gel forming capacity, emulsifying capacity, and foaming capacity are presented. The results are as follows: 1) The yield of SPI from defatted soybean meal increased to 83.9 % as the soybean meal was extracted with 0.02 N NaOH. 2) The suitable viscocity of a dope solution for spinning fiber was found to be 60 Poises by using syringe needle (0.3 mm) with 15 % SPI in 0.6 % NaOH. 3) Heat caused thickening and gelation in concentration of 8 % with a temperature threshold of $70^{\circ}C$. At $8{\sim}12\;%$ protein concentration, gel was formed within $10{\sim}30\;min$ at $70{\sim}100\;^{\circ}C$. It was, however, disrupted rapidly at $125\;^{\circ}C$ of overheat treatment. The gel was firm, resilient and self-supporting at protein concentration of 14 % and less susceptible to disruption of overheating. 4) The emulsifying capacity (EC) of SPI was correlated positively to the solubility of protein at ${\mu}=0$. At pH of the isoelectric point of SPI (pH 4.6), EC increased as concentration of sodium chloride increased. Using model system$(mixing\;speed:\;12,000\;r.p.m.,\;oil\;addition\;rate:\;0.9\;ml/sec,\;and\;temperature\;:\;20{\pm}1\;^{\circ}C)$, the maximum EC of SPI was found to be 47.2 ml of oil/100 mg protein, at the condition of pH 8.7 and ${\mu}=0.6$. The milk casein had greater EC than SPI at lower ionic strength while the EC of SPI was the same as milk casein at higher ionic strength. 5) The shaking test was used in determining the foam-ability of proteins. Progressively increasing SPI concentration up to 5 % indicated that the maximum protein concentration for foaming capacity was 2 %. Sucrose reduced foam expansion slightly but enhanced foam stability. The results of comparing milk casein and egg albumin were that foaming properties of SPI were the same as egg albumin, and better than milk casein, particularly in foam stability.

Sol-gel methods offer many advantages over conventional slip-casting, including the ability to produce ceramic membranes. They are purer, more homogeneous, more reactive and contain a wider variety of compositions. We produced ormosil sol using sol-gel process under various molecular weight of polymer species[polyethylene glycol(PEG)] in total system [Tetraethyl ortho silicate(TEOS)-polyethylene glycol(PEG)]. The properties of as-prepared ormosil sol such as viscosity and gelation time are characterized. Also, the ceramic membrane was prepared by dip-coating with synthetic sol and its microstructure was observed by scanning electron microscopy. The permeability and rejection efficiency of membrane for oil/water emulsion were evaluated as cross­flow apparatus. The ormosil sol coated membrane was easily formed by steric effect of polymer and it improved flux efficiency because infiltration into porous support decreased. Its flux efficiency was elevated about $200\;l/m^2h$ compared with colloidal sol coated membrane at point of five minutes from starting test.

This study was conducted to investigate the mechanism involved with gelation of soybean proteins, 7S and 11S. For the preparations of soybean gels, calsium coagulation and isoelectric point precipitation through the lactic acid fermentation were employed. The textural properties and microstructure of soybean curds were examined by Instron Universal Testing Machine and Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM), respectively. Soybean cheeses were also prepared from soyprotein curds. The characteristics of prepared soybean cheeses were studied by Instron and Sensory evaluation. Microstructure of soybean curds demonstrated by SEM differed markely, postulating that molecular interaction occured in the curds varied with type of protein and coagulative conditions. Textural parameter measured by Instron demonstrated that the curds and the cheeses made through lactic acid fermentation showed higher values in hardness, gumminess and chewiness than those coagulated with $CaCl_2$ 11S PRF could give the curds with higher values in hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness than SPI and 7S PRF Sensory evaluation results showed that soybean cheese made from 11S PRF scored higher values in taste, chewiness, and hardness. However, panels preferred soybean cheese prepared from SPI in color, chewiness and brittleness.
