Commonly-used polymers are manufactured as versatile forms. Furthermore, continuous polymer fibers are recently manufactured using nylon or aramid fiber. One of common epoxy was also used to make polymer fibers. Bisphenol-A type was used as base epoxy whereas amine and anhydride were used as hardeners. Epoxy fibers was cured by stepping up the temperature to maintain the shape of epoxy fiber. Surface energy was measured to confirm the degree of interfacial adhesion by modified static contact angle method. After mechanical properties were measured via fiber tensile test, the evaluation of fiber fracture was proceeded. Tensile strength of epoxy fiber using amine type hardener was higher as 138 MPa than anhydride case as 70 MPa. Fractured surface exhibited different failure patterns at the cross-section.

The functional vice (Oryza sativa L.) has been highly regarded recently, in the change of rice maykets in the world. Goami2 (GA), one of the functional rice varieties, was developed from high-quality rice, Ilpumbyeo (IP). From the previous study, GA has been proved its beneficial effect on the improvement of metabolic control and body weight reduction especially in obesity, We could certain that GA was very difficult to be gelatinized due to the micro lump shown in the Scanning electron micrographs (SEM) photos. To improve its cooking quality, we investigated the changes of physicochemical properties, which were differentiated by the conditions of milling and blending. As GA was milled every $2\%$ until eliminating $12\%$, the nitrogen content was decreased linearly. But the decreasing rate of nitrogen content of GA during milling process was relatively lower than that of IP. Thus, we assumed that GA has relatively high nitrogen in inner starch of grain. The degree of milling had no effect on the gelatinization of cooked GA, but affected lightness and whiteness linearly, which were ranged in normal values when the rice was milled more than $10\%$ in weight. So we could concluded that the milling process was not proper to improve cooking quality of GA. And we could suggested that GA was needed to soak into water at least one hour before cooking by it water absorption rate at normal temperature$(21^{\circ}C)$ and sensory evaluation. From the texture analysis, cooked GA had higher hardness than other varieties. Therefore, we blended GA with IP, Baekjinju(BJ) and Hwasunchalbyeo(HS), then subjected to sensory evaluation. All evaluation items including the sensory preference were the highest scores for the rice blended with glutinous rice varieties, BJ and HS.

The Korean economy has recently changed from industry-based economy toward information-based one, empha-sizing on information utiliation and technological development. It is important to examine the background for the incoming information society and spatial aspect of infromation, because informati-zation process itself contains spatial features like spatial concentrtion and dispersion. This paper generally focuses on the socio-cultural aspects of the informati-zation aspects. The main questions are as follows: 1) what are the ain questions of the exsisting Korean case studies on the informatization; 2) how can we find the charateristics of spatial concentration of informatization by informatization indices; 3) is there any relationship between the degree of informatiztion and regional development? The results of this study can be found in the following facts: (1) The exsisting studies cannot be generallized as spatial analysis on the informatization In general, they focus only a single aspect of information industry or information job. Futhermore, their spatial unit of analysis is limited to provincial level, rather thn city-level micro study. (2) There are big differences between the Capital region, especially Seoul, and others with regard to the socio-cultural aspects of informatiation. Such informatization is concentrated in Seoul. Inchon and Kyeonggi-do, which are the better positions in information intensive activities. (3) The regional differences for the level of informatization are much bigger than those for the level of welfare, suggesting that the informatization tends to concentrate in specified large cities like Seoul. It is clear the Korea is now entering the initial stage of information society.

The relation between performance maintenance conditions and those cost efficiency was studied to choose an optimum operating condition in the seawater desalination pretreatment system. A hollow fiber microfiltration module, which was developed with domestic technology, was tested with the various operating conditions such as chemically enhanced backwash cycles and design dosages of a cleaning chemical. Transmembrane pressure was measured to investigate membrane fouling status and cleaning degree. In addition, economic analysis was performed to compare water production costs by the operation condition. As a result, The operation mode III, chemically enhanced backwash at once a day with 100 mg/L of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) was selected. The concurrent evaluation between membrane filtration performance and its economic analysis will be suitable to choose an efficient optimum condition.

Problems appear when triptans are taken orally. For example, the bioavailability of triptan is reduced by the digestive system, and the drug level in the blood reduces rapidly over time; there is also a possibility of gastrointestinal disorder. To improve side effects, a transdermal patch has been prepared in hydrogel form. The polymer matrix that makes up the hydrogel uses PVA; PEG is used as an additive to induce inter/intra hydrogen bonding of the PVA and almotriptan drug is added. In addition, to accelerate micro-phase separation between PVA chains, liquid nitrogen is used. In FT-IR analysis, the absorption bands of PVA, PEG, and almotriptan were found. The degree of crystallinity, the water uptake ability and tensile strength were increased with increasing PEG content. In drug release tests, the amount of drug released increased depending on the PEG content. In this study, hydrogels with 10 wt% PEG showed better performance in drug release. Approximately 60% of the total drug amount was released in 2 hr, and the drug continued to release for 1 day. Thus, the prepared hydrogel patch is suitable as a transdermal formulation for the second dose administration of triptans to patients who require recurrent migraine treatment within 24 hr after the first administration.

High alumina refractory used in a coal gasifier was analyzed and the degradation mechanism by molten slag was investigated. The depth of refractory severely damaged by slag varied between 12~40 mm, including the adhered slag layer. The sample also showed the cracks formed in parallel to the slag/refractory interface. The degree of degradation varied with the micro-structures in the refractory. Fused alumina grains showed the uneven boundary and pore formation just along the edges, while the tablet alumina showed the slag penetrated between sintered alumina around which the formation of Al-Fe phase was observed. Calcium aluminate cements were not observed at the high temperature zone near the slag/refractory interface, probably due to dissolution into molten slag. Around large grains of alumina, rod shape alumina, which appeared to be recrystallized during cooling, were observed, and large pores were also formed around those grains. Therefore, in high alumina refractories, hot molten slag dissolves the bonding phase and rod-shape alumina phase is recrystallized upon cooling. During this process, cracks are developed due to structural change, and the degradation occurs by physical causes such as structural spalling.

Soil washing techniques coupled with high pressure air jet were applied for diesel-contaminated soils sampled by an underground oil reservoir of which the initial total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) ($2,828{\pm}206\;mg/kg$) exceeded 5 times of current standard level (500 mg/kg) regulated by the Soil-Environment Conservation Law. Through several tests, we found that the position of impeller has a critical impact for washing efficiencies. The highest washing efficiency was obtained at an oblique angle (30 degree) for the impeller and optimized mixing speed (300 rpm) that could have high shearing forces. Considered economical and feasible aspects, the optimum mixing time was 10 min. Rate constants of TPH removal derived from the first-order equation were not linearly increased as mixing speed increased, indicating that mechanical mixing has some limits to enhance the washing efficiencies. Application of high-pressure air jet in washing process increased the washing efficiency. This increase might be caused by the fact that the surface of micro-air bubbles strongly attached hydrophobic matters of soil particles. As the pressure of air jet increased, the separation efficiencies of TPH-contaminated soil particles increased. In the combined process of high-pressure air jet and mixing by impeller, the optimum mixing speed and air flow-rate were determined to be 60 rpm and $2\;kg/cm^2$, respectively. Consequently, the washing technique coupled with high-pressure air jet could be considered as a feasible application for remediating petroleum-contaminated soils.

To investigate the pyrolytic and anatomical characteristics of Korean softwood, Pinus densi-flora, Pinus rigida and Larix leptolepis, and hardwood, Acer palntatum, Fraxinus rhynchophylla and Quercus variabilis, chemical components analysis, TG-DTA (Thermogravimetric Analysis & Differential Thermal Analysis), MBA (Methylene Blue Adsorption) test and SEM observation were carried out. For TG-DTA, samples were carbonized up to $800^{\circ}C$ at the heating rate of $10^{\circ}C$/min under $N_2$ flows 1 l/min using thermogravimetric analyzer. Chemical component analysis of all samples resulted in typical contents of major wood component. In TG-DTA results, softwood showed higher char yield than hardwood, and lignin displayed the highest char yield among the major wood components. All samples showed typical TGA, DTG and DTA curves for wood pyrolysis except a few differences between softwood and hardwood. Content of lignin influenced its pyrolysis characteristics, while molecular structure of lignin affected not only the weight loss but also the yield of char. In MBA test results, MBA of softwoods was higher than that of hardwoods. Char of Pinus densiflora showed the highest MBA, but its degree was lower than activated carbon or fine charcoal about 23 and 4 times, respectively. SEM observation showed carbonization process preserves wood structure and retain the micro-structure of wood fibers.

$Pb(Fe_{0.5}Nb_{0.5}O_3(PFN)$ thin films were prepared by rf magnetron co-sputtering method on $SiO_2/Si$, ITO/glass, and $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrates and post-annealed at the $N_2$ atmosphere by RTA(rapid thermal annerling). The degree of crystallinity of PFN films was identified on various substrates. Electrical properties of PFN films was characterized for $Pt/PFN/Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ structure. The composition of PFN films was estimated by EPMA (electron probe micro analysis). PFN films would be crystallized better to perovskite phase on ITO/glass substrate than $SiO_2/Si$ substrate. This may be induced by the deformation of Pb deficient pyrochlore phase due to Pb diffusion into $SiO_2/Si$ substrate. PFN films on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrate. PFN films with 5-10% Pb excess were crystallized to perovskite phase from $500^{\circ}C$ temperature. In summary, we show that Pb composition and annealing temperature were critically influenced on crystallinity to perovskite phase. When PFN film with 17% Pb excess was annealed at $600^{\circ}C$ at the $N_2$ atmosphere for 300kV/cm and 88. Its remnant polarization coercive field $2.0 MC/cm^2$ and 144kV/cm, respectively.
