The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of heating times of soy protein isolate(SPI) and mixing ratio of coagulants mixture on water holding capacity(WHC) and oil absorption capacity (OAC) of SPI, texture properties and yield of tofu. The effect of heating at $100^{\circ}C$ on the amounts of coagulants required for coagulation showed that the amounts of $CaCl_{2},\;MgCl_{2}$ and GDL decreased as the heating time extended to $6{\sim}9$ minutes while $CaSO_{2}$ was changed little. The tofu yield showed maximum for the tofu prepared by 6 minutes boiling and coagulation with $CaSO_{4}$. The WHC of SPI was significantly reduced by heating at $100^{\circ}C$ while OAC was rather increased until 9 minutes of heating. The textural properties of SPI tofu coagulated with mixed coagulants$(CaSO_{4}-GDL,\;CaSO_{4}-CaCl_{2},\;CaCl_2-GDL)$ showed that softer tofu was obtained as the ratio of $CaSO_{2}$ increased and harder tofu as the ratio of $CaCl_{2}$ and GDL increased. The maximum and minimum tofu yields were prepared from 100% of $CaSO_{2}$ and 100% of GDL, respectively. Organoleptic properties showed that more uniform and tender tofu were obtained with higher portion of $CaSO_{2}$ in the mixed coagulants and higher intensity of sourness and bitterness were scored as the GDL and $CaCl_{2}$ added more.

Hydrothermal deposition of hydroxyapatite coatings on $Al_2$O$_3$ substrates was studied using aqueous solutions of Ca(NO$_3$)$_2$ㆍ4$H_2O$ and (NH$_4$)$_2$HPO$_4$ containing EDTA disodium salt as a chelating agent for $Ca^{2+}$. For the precipitation of the coatings the EDTA-Ca$^{2+}$ chelates were dissociated thermally at 20$0^{\circ}C$ or decomposed by oxidation with $H_2O$$_2$ at 9$0^{\circ}C$. Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction were used to investigate the deposition behavior and the phase of the coatings. Hydroxyapatite coatings were not deposited with the thermal dissociation method, whereas uniform deposition of the coatings (about 0.7 $\mu\textrm{m}$ thickness) was obtained with the oxidative decomposition method. The coatings consisted of fine rod-like hydroxyapatite crystals (hexagonal structure) with 60-80 nm diameters, having some preferred orientation with their length (i.e., the c axis) perpendicular to the substrate.ate.

The purpose of this study is to observe the growth habit and investigate a possibility of cultivating the GM rice (CaMsrB2-8) as a rice cultivar having drought resistance. Germination viability test showed that there was no significant difference between the drought-resistant GM(CaMsrB2-8) and non-GM (Ilmi) rice which was the parent variety at the GM rice. All the seeds of CaMsrB2-8 and Ilmi germinated after 6 days. Viviparous germination was not found in CaMsrB2-8 and Ilmi that was grown in greenhouse at $23{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ with water spraying for 40 days. Ratooning of CaMsrB2-8 and Ilmi was observed in 7-14 days and found uniform in field condition. CaMsrB2-8 seemed to grow faster than Ilmi. But CaMsrB2-8 and Ilmi were similar in 14-21 days. Both CaMsrB2-8 and Ilmi showed low seed shattering and more than 90% grains were ripened. All the seeds scattered in the paddy soil surface were not germinated after passing the winter. This study suggests that the drought-resistant GM rice was not significantly different with the parent variety of Ilmi in many agronomic characteristics such as wildness traits.

PEO (plasma electrolytic oxidation) was applied to modify the surface of AZ31 magnesium alloy in this study. The mixed solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and sodium silicate (Na₂SiO₃) was used as the electrolyte, and 0 - 0.05 g/L of Ca-GP (Glycerol Phosphate Calcium salt) was added in the electrolyte as an additive. PEO treatment was conducted at a current density of 30mA/cm² for 5 minutes using a DC power supply. The surface properties were identified by SEM, XRD and surface roughness analyses, and the corrosion resistance was evaluated by potentiodynamic polarization and immersion tests. In addition, the biocompatibility was evaluated by immersion test in SBF solution. As the concentration of Ca-GP was increased, the surface morphology was denser and more uniform, and the amount of Ca and the thickness of oxide layer increased. Only Mg peak was observed in XRD analysis due to very thin oxide layer. The corrosion resistance of PEO-treated samples increased with the concentration of Ca-GP in comparision with the untreated sample. In particular, the highest corrosion resistance was identified at the group of 0.04g Ca-GP through potentiodynamic polarization and immersion tests in saline solution (0.9 wt.%NaCl). During the immersion in saline solution, pH rapidly increased at the beginning of immersion period due to rapid corrosion, and then increase rate of pH decreased. However, the pH value in the SBF temporarily increased from 7.4 to 8.5 during the day, then decreased due to the inhibition of corrosion with HA(hydroxyapatite) formation.

Effect on alginate, pectin and Ca salts on textural properties of whole soybean gel(soygel) was investigated. The soygel was prepared by addition of sodium alginate, pectin and Ca salts into whole soy flour(300 mesh, WSF) suspension followed by through mixing. Addition of sodium alginate or pectin into WSF suspension significantly increased the hardness, adhesiveness and cohesiveness of the gel. The most uniform gel was obtained by $12{\sim}15%$ addition of sodium alginate or pectin, while their mixture rather decreased the textural properties. Sensory evaluation by ranking test for the gels showed that 12% sodium alginate and 0.125g $CaSO_4/g$ WSF produced the most desirable gel in terms of elasticity, uniformity, smoothness and total acceptability, followed by 12% sodium alginate and 0.12g Ca $gluconate-CaSO_4$(50 : 50). From the results, the optimal preparative conditions for soygel were suspension of WSF in 10 times of water(v/w), addition of 12% sodium alginate(w/w of WSF) and 12.5% $CaSO_4$ or Ca $gluconate-CaSO_4$(50 : 50) into WSF suspension followed by gel formation at $4^{\circ}C$.

Locality of domestic high-Ca limestones can be divided into three districts, i.e., (1) the Jecheon-Danyang area, (2) the Samcheok-Taebaek-Jungsun area, and (3) the Uljin-Andong area, in accordance with their geologic background and type of the deposits. Except for some crystalline limestones from the Jecheon-Danyang area, domestic high-Ca limestones were mostly recrystallized and Ca-enriched by the effects of hydrothermal alteration and/or thermal metamorphism. The lime-stones can be also divided into crystalline limestone type, marble type, micro- and mega-crystalline calcite types on the basis of their composition, crystallinity, and mineral facies. An applied-mineralogical characterization of the high-Ca limestones was done through the systematic analyses and tests for the limestones. The high-Ca limestones from the area (1), which are megascopic ally close to the original limestone in lithology, display lower whiteness, higher contents of CaO (51 ～ 54 wt.%), low crystallinity, and fine-grained texture. Two typical hydrothermal types of the high-Ca limestones from the area (2), i.e., micro- (mostly 0.2～0.3 mm) and mega-crystalline (2～15 em) calcite types, have comparatively higher whiteness and rather variable CaO contents (50～55 wt.%) with exhibiting quite different crystallinity each other. The micro-crystalline calcite type is especially dominant in this area, and has comparatively uniform crystallinity and homogeneous composition. Compared to these limestones, the high-Ca limestones from the area (3) show remarkable differences in grade and quality according to their types of deposit and occurrence. Based on these mineral characters and chemical composition, a possible scheme for industrial uses of the domestic high-Ca limestones was suggested.

It is important to determine supporting locations for structural stability when a structure is loaded with non-uniform load or supporting locations as well as the number of the supporting structures are restricted by the problem of space. Moreover, the supporting location optimization of complex structure in real world is frequently faced with discontinuous design space. Therefore, the traditional optimization methods based on derivative are not suitable Whereas, Genetic Algorithm (CA) based on stochastic search technique is a very robust and general method. The KSTAR in-vessel control coil installed in vacuum vessel is loaded with non- uniform electro-magnetic load and supporting locations are restricted by the problem of space. This paper shows the supporting location optimization for structural stability of the in-vessel control coil. Optimization has been performed by means of a developed program. It consists of a Finite Element Analysis interfaced with a Genetic Algorithm. In addition, this paper presents an algorithm to find an optimum solution in discontinuous space using continuous design variables.

Composition effects on microstructure and metallizing properties of the alumina sintered body were evaluated to develop the metallized alumina tubes having superior properties for electronic devices. SEM observation revealed that resultant micrographs and fractographs were varied with composition chance of additives and $SiO_2$-rich specimens showed better microstructural characteristics with uniform distribution of fine and round particles than other CaO-rich or MgO-rich ones. The resultant interfacial microstructure of the $SiO_2$-rich metallized alumina tubes also showed good metallizing properties with no defects between layers and uniform thickness of metallizing layer.

Cellulose is a beneficial material that has low cost, lightweight, high compatibility and biodegradability. Recently electroactive paper (EAPap) on cellulose base was discovered as a smart material and actuator through ion migration and piezoelectric effect. Furthermore cellulose has a potentiality to apply the display material, because of its high reflectivity, flexibility and high transmittance. The various shapes and height patterns of the Cellulose acetate (CA) solution, such as circle and honeycomb patterns, were fabricated and observed by field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM, S4300 Hitachi). The resulting pattern showed uniform size in the large area without defect. After stretching the CA film with saponification process in the sodium methoxide in methanol solution, Most of the compositions become one directional ordered nanofibers below 50nm.
