In this study, ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM) rubbers reinforced with various particle size of carbon black were prepared and tested. We followed recently published CSA/ANSI CHMC2 standard "the test methods for evaluating material compatibility in compressed hydrogen applications-polyemr". Measurement of change in hardness, tensile strength and volume were performed after exposure to maximum operating pressure, 87.5 MPa, for 168 hours (1 week). Once EPDM was exposed to high-pressure hydrogen, the samples experience volume increase and degradation of the physical properties. Also, after the dissolved hydrogen was fully eliminated from the specimens, the hardness and the tensile properties were not recovered. The rubber reinforced with smaller sizes of carbon black particles showed less volume expansion and decrease of physical properties. As a result, smaller particle size of carbon black filler led to more resistance to high-pressure hydrogen.

Productivity, nutrient contents, in vitro gas production and in sacco degradability of different fractions and whole OPF were determined to assess the feeding value of OPF as a ruminant feed. An in vivo digestibility trial was also carried out using goat. Freshly harvested OPF was randomly collected, partitioned and weighed. An OPF from 21 years older palm weighed 13.4 kg and the annual fresh matter yield of petiole, leaflet and midrib was 46.5, 11.8 and 3.4 ton/ha, respectively. Leaflet contained 439, 926, 698, 501, 168, 196, 748 and 52 (g/kg) of dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), cellulose (CE), hemicellulose (HC), total carbohydrate (TC) and non fiber carbohydrate (NFC), respectively. Petiole contained lower (p<0.01) DM, CP and EE contents than leaflet. Organic matter, CE and TC contents were higher (p<0.01) in petiole compared to leaflet. Silica and lignin contents were highest (p<0.01) in midrib followed by leaflet, whole OPF and least in petiole. The Ca, P, Na, K and Mg contents (g/100 g DM) of leaflet were 0.529, 0.182, 0.039, 0.876, and 0.168, respectively. In vitro DM digestibility (g/100 g) at 48 h of leaflet, petiole and midrib was 32.7, 38.7 and 30.2, respectively. The in sacco DM degradation (g/100 g) at 48 h of leaflet was higher than that of whole OPF, petiole and midrib. The in vivo digestibility of DM, OM, CP and ADF of whole OPF was 52, 56, 43 and 26%, respectively. It can be concluded that leaflet is the most nutritious fraction of OPF and midrib is the least. The nutrient content and digestibility of the whole OPF showed that OPF could be an alternative roughage source for ruminant diets.

Candida utilis can assimilate fatty acids, so it was hypothesized that the treatment of rice by Candida utilis would improve feed quality by reducing fat content and adding the yeast function that would stimulate rumen microbes. In this study, the oil assimilation ability of Candida utilis IFO1086, 0988, 0626 and the effect of treatment of Candida utilis IFO1086, IFO0626 on the nutrient contents of rice bran were examined. The effect of Candida utilis addition on the in vitro degradability of forage was also investigated. It was found that the oil assimilating ability of IFO1086 and IFO0626 was significantly (p<0.01) higher than that of IFO0988. Candida utilis treatment reduced the EE content and increased the CP, ADF and NDF percentage. The absolute amount of ether extract was decreased by 35.9% in IFO1086 and IFO0626 treatment. The absolute amount of crude protein was not changed by yeast treatment. The ADF and NDF amounts were increased. The addition of Candida utilis increased in vitro forage degradability significantly (p<0.05). Based on these results it can be postulated that treatment of rice bran by Candida utilis may improve feed quality by reducing fat content, increasing the CP content and adding the function of yeast for stimulating rumen microbes.

Selected microbiological and biochemical characteristics of the steeping process for the production of yukwa, a traditional Korean oil-puffed snack made of waxy rice, were investigated during steeping of waxy rice in water for 15 days. The lengthy steeping process was largely predominated by lactic acid bacteria (LAB), particularly, Lactobacillus and Leuconostoc. The predominat type of bacterium isolated was the Y26 strain tentatively identified as Lactobacillus plantarum. The titratable acidity of the steeping medium increased from 0.01 to 1.13%, in parallel with the decrease in pH ranging from 6.3 to 4.2 as the steeping period increased from 0 to 15 days. A high amount of lactic acid and to a much lesser extent, butyric acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, and succinic acid were detected during the steeping process. The amount of reducing sugars in the steeping medium increased from 0.61 to 10.43 mg/mL, whereas sucrose decreased from 0.46 mg% to an undetectable level. Starch degradation products including glucose, maltose and oligosaccharides ranging G3-G7 were not initially noticed, but their content increased during the steeping process until completion. However, no oligosaccharides larger than G8 were detected in the steeping medium. The activities of $\alpha$-amylase, $\beta$-amylase and protease in the steeping medium of waxy rice tended to rise increase with time during the steeping process. From these results, the lengthy steeping process in yukwa production can be characterized as the spontaneous fermentation, dominated by lactic acid bacteria, which is a necessary process for inducing biochemical modification of waxy rice.

유지와 탄화수소를 탄소원으로 하여 Acinetobacter calcoaceticus를 배양하여 탄소원의 분해와 균체의 생육정도를 측정하고 활성오니법을 이용한 폐수정화에 이 균주의 이용가능성을 검토하였다. 실험에 사용된 모든 유지와 탄화수소가 분해되었다. 삼각플라스크에 의한 진탕배양의 경우 분해율은 어유가 26로 식물성 유지의 40-54에 비하여 분해율이 낮게 나타났다. 포화지방산은 어유 중에서 약 55, 식물성유지 중에서는 6-12 각각 함유되어 있었다. Hexadecane의 분해율은 약 60로 식물성유지에 비하여 높게 나타났다. 탄소원의 분해에 따라 균체량의 증가가 관찰되었고, jar fermentor 배양에 의하면 모든 탄소원이 80 이상 분해되었고 균체수율도 1.00% 내외로 개선되었다.배양조건에 따라 탄소원의 분해율에 영향을 받는다고 볼 수 있으며, 이는 초기 기질농도가 기질 분해율에 영향을 준 결과에서도 증명되었다. 유지 또는 탄화수소를 3% 함유한 인공폐수를 A. calcoaceticus로 우선 분해시키고, 그 분해산물을 활성오니법에 의하여 정화를 시도한 결과 탄소원의 농도는 0.06%이하로, 부유물질농도는 53mg/ml 이하로 각각 저하되어 이 균주를 폐수정화에 이용할 수 있음을 시사하였다.

Generally pigment differs from dye stuff because it cannot be melted in water but also because it is stable physically and chemically. In this study you will discover the function, properties and effects of Micai-TiO$_2$-SiO$_2$pigment as abase material pigment. But until now used Mica of the base material is about 7-l5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ with an average diameters of 15${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. A new characteristic superficial pigment was obtained from covering the TiO$_2$ and SiO$_2$ with the adsorption result of isoelectric point of a Mica flake, TiO$_2$ and SiO$_2$In the composition reaction study of adsorption was done as well as the physical characteristics of the superficial texture of the obtained material. L,a,b of color change as oil was absorbed, optical nature and change of reflection according to direct and diffused reflection. In the composition of Mica slurry the best result obtained was in a solution with pH 2.0 to 2.3. Following this result, we can come to the idea that electrical attraction was done during the change of electrical charge of the Mica and TiO$_2$ deposit. Also this pigment shows a big scale between the direct reflection and diffused reflection light. Using this characteristic in cosmetic, it was obtained a natural but a contrast between light and shadow making possible a sculptured make-up. Color change due to oil adsorption was insignificant which improved the last of make up.

In the present study, the chemical constituents of Artemisia fukudo essential oil (AFE) were investigated using GC-MS. The major constituents were ${\alpha}$-thujone (40.28%), ${\beta}$-thujone (12.69%), camphor (6.95%) and caryophyllene (6.01%). We also examined the effects of AFE on the production of nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$), tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ (TNF-${\alpha}$), interleukin-IL-$1{\beta}$ (IL-$1{\beta}$), and IL-6 in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated RAW 264.7 cells. Western blotting and RT-PCR analyses indicated that AFE has potent dose-dependent inhibitory effects on pro-inflammatory cytokines and mediators. We investigated the mechanism by which AFE inhibits NO and $PGE_2$ by examining the level of nuclear factor-${\kappa}B$ (NF-${\kappa}B$: p50 and p65) activation within the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK: ERK, JNK and p38) pathway, which is an inflammation induced signal pathway in RAW 264.7 cells. AFE inhibited LPS-induced ERK, JNK and p38 phosphorylation. Furthermore, AFE inhibited the LPS-induced phosphorylation and degradation of $I{\kappa}B-{\alpha}$, which is required for the nuclear translocations of the p50 and p65 NF-${\kappa}B$ subunits in RAW 264.7 cells. Our results suggest that AFE might exert an anti-inflammatory effect by inhibiting the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Such an effect is mediated by a blocking of NF-${\kappa}B$ activation which consequently inhibits the generation of inflammatory mediators in RAW 264.7 cells. AFE may be useful for treating inflammatory diseases.

Herein, we investigated the thermal conductivity and thermal stability of natural rubber composite systems containing hybrid fillers of boron nitride (BN) and aluminum nitride (AlN). In the hybrid system, the bimodal distribution of polygonal AlN and planar BN particles provided excellent filler-packing efficiency and desired energy path for phonon transfer, resulting in high thermal conductivity of 1.29 W/mK, which could not be achieved by single filler composites. Further, polyethylene glycol (PEG) was compounded with a commonly used naphthenic oil, which substantially increased thermal conductivity to 3.51 W/mK with an excellent thermal stability due to facilitated energy transfer across the filler-filler interface. The resulting PEG-incorporated hybrid composite showed a high thermal degradation temperature (T₂) of 290℃, a low coefficient of thermal expansion of 26.4 ppm/℃, and a low thermal distortion parameter of 7.53 m/K, which is well over the naphthenic oil compound. Finally, using the Fourier's law of conduction, we suggested a modeling methodology to evaluate the cooling performance in thermal management system.

Oil이나 Gas생산시 발생하는 Produced water의 양은 미국 내에서만 연간 수십억 배럴에 육박한다. 이러한 Produced water의 재이용을 위한 첫 번째 과제는 유해 유기물질을 제거하는 것으로, 본 연구에서는 수중의 BTEX를 가스상태로 변화시킨 후 Vapor phase biofilter (VPB)로 분해, 제거 효능을 평가하였다. VPB 시스템은 짧은 기간의 시스템 shutdown에는 거의 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 주입 되는 농도가 Peak 형태를 가질때는 제거효능의 저하가 관찰 되었으며, 이중 Benzene이 가장 민감하게 반응하였다. 이를 위한 해결책으로 GAC로 충진된 Buffering Column이 사용되었으며, 이는 peak 형태의 유입농도 Profile을 완만한 형태로 buffering하는 역할을 하였다. 현장 적용을 통하여, 본 시스템이 Produced water내에 존재하는 용존 BTEX를 효과적으 로 제거할 수 있음을 확인하였다.
