  • This study was undertaken to examine the feasibility of black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) as substrates for several edible mushrooms. For the cultivation of several edible and/or medicinal fungi on black locust, optimum bulk densities, synthetic or semisynthetic additives, natural additives and pretreatment methods were investigated. Fruit body yields of the fungi on various sawdust media composed of different wood species were also analyzed for testing the capability of black locust as a substrate for mushroom production. Mycelial growths decreased proportional when the bulk density increased. The most suitable carbon and nitrogen sources as additives to promote the mycelial growth were sucrose (2%, w/w) and ammonium phosphate (0.2%, w/w) respectively. When corn-powder and beer-waste as natural additives were added to sawdust of black locust showed the significant growth of mycelia. And the optimum mixing ratio was 10:2:1 (sawdust: corn-powder: beer-waste, w/w). Black locust after cold water treatment showed the outstanding mycelial growths. Any significant changes of pH, moisture content (%) and dry-weight losses (%) could not be found among culture substrates (sawdust of black locust, oak and poplar wood) examined before and after harvesting of fruit bodies. Yield of fruit bodies on black locust culture media were comparable with those culture media composed with oak and poplar wood. The present work indicated strongly the potentiality of black locust as raw materials for edible and medicinal mushrooms.

  • This study was planned considering the chain length, hydrophilicity, and hydrophobicity of the additives to be used in the polymerization, while various ophthalmic lenses that use various additives with similar water contents were manufactured before their optical and physical properties were compared and analyzed. With regard to the additives required for manufacturing high-, medium-, and low-water content lens groups, HEA (hydroxyethyl acrylate), PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone), and NMV(N-methyl-N-vinylacetamide) were used as additives for preparing the high-water content lens group, HEMA(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate), HPMA(hydroxypropyl methacrylate) and BD(1,4-butanediol) were used for the medium-water content lens group. For the low-water content lens group, BMA(buthyl methacrylate), BDDA(1,4-butanediol diacrylate), and Bis-GMA(bisphenol A glycerolate diacrylate) were used, respectively. The average water content of HEA was 40.14%; that of PVP, 39.63%; and that of NMV, 40.52%. The mean of water content was 35.92% for HEMA, 35.74% for BD, and 34.62% for HPMA. For the low-water content lens group, the mean of water content was 26.69% for BMA, 27.76% for BDDA, and 26.14% for Bis-GMA. With regard to the results of the water content measurement using a moisture analyzer, the average water content of the high-water content lens group was 41.34% for HEA, 42.62% for PVP, and 42.73% for NMV. Finally, for the low-water content lens group, the average water content was 28.62% for BMA, 28.82% for BDDA, and 28.32% for Bis-GMA. The measurements of the water contents of the lenses using the two methods showed that the water content and refractive index of the lenses were similar in all the lens groups. The measurements of the contact angles, however, showed a different wettability value for each lens with a similar water content. Also, the change tendency of the lens curvature according to the change of time showed that the change amount became larger and the recovery time became longer from the lens samples with a lower water content to those with a higher water content. Based on these results that will be helpful for the study of ophthalmic lenses.

  • An experimental study is performed for extinguishing of n-heptane pool fire by water mist containing potassium acetate as a fire suppression additive. Water mist was generated by a single pressure nozzle in a small-scale chamber. The drop size distribution of water mist was measured using laser diffraction(Malvern particle sizer). The flame temperature, oxygen concentration and carbon monoxide concentration were measured. In case of using additives, the fire extinguishing time was shorter than that of pure water at a given discharge pressure and it was because the momentum of a water droplet containing additives was increased. And also dissociated metal atoms, potassium, were reacted as a scavenger of the major radical species OH, H which were generated for combustion process. Moreover, at a high pressure of 4MPa, the fire was extinguished through blowing effect as well as primary extinguishing mechanisms.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the effects of medicinal plants with additives on storage characteristics of sausage. The water activity of the sausage with the additives tended to decrease with the storage time: the highest value was shown in the Angelica added sausage samples, in both cases added with dried powder as well as with extracted powder. The Paeonia extract powder added sausage had the lowest pH value. The herbal plant added sausages showed the lowest cooking and storage losses among all. The values of TBA (thiobarbituric acid value) and VBN (volatile basic nitrogen) increased with storage time, but the values of the sample with the extract powder additive were lower than those of the freeze-dry powder additive. Total plate counts of bacteria increased with storage time fur all samples, but those for the samples with Pueraria, Platycodon, Angelica, Bupleurum and Paeonia additives exhibited lower values than the control. From the above results, the sausages with medicinal plant additives showed the superior storage safety and quality characteristics.

  • The cutaneous tolerability of detergent formulations can be improved by means of suitable additives. They complex the surfactant molecules lowering the concentration of their free monomeric species. Proteins derivatives used as additives for detergency are usually prepared by partial hydrolysis of plant reserve proteins. The main purpose of the hydrolytic cleavage is to make them water soluble and suitable for liquid products. Water solubility and stability are obtained by means of complexation with surfactants which also increase their actual hydrophobicity, an important parameter affecting cosmetic properties of proteins. Transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and electric capacitance (EC) have been adopted as investigation technigues to evaluate the skin integrity/damage in vitro tests, The performance of native wheat protein / surfactant complexes has been compared with traditional protein hydrolysates as detergent additives. The results show a noticeable reduction of skin irritation in surfactant formulations with addition of native wheat protein.

  • 염색 산업에서 발생하는 염색폐수는 적절한 처리가 필요한 유해 폐수로 분류된다. 파이롯트 규모의 선택적 무촉매 환원반응 (SNCR) 실험 장치에서 염색폐수를 연소 배가스에 포함된 질소산화물을 효과적으로 저감할 수 있는 첨가제로 사용하는 연구를 수행하였다. 염색 산업에서 배출되는 염색폐수는 환원제의 첨가제로 사용되기 위해서는 표준화된 제제 형태이어야 하며 이를 위해 여러 단계의 정제과정을 거쳤다. 엄격하게 처리되어야 할 염색폐수는 적어도 유용성 면에서 약 87%의 NO 저감 효율을 보일 정도로 만족할 만한 효율을 보이나, CO 제거에서는 거의 효과가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 첨가제 첨가효과는 $750-1150^{\circ}C$ 구간에서 처음에는 온도가 증가함에 NO 제거 효율이 증가하다가 그 다음에는 감소하는 형태를 보인다. 최적의 온도조건에서 최대의 NO 제거 효율은 87% 이었다. 염색폐수에 포함된 약 1000ppm의 Na 화합물의 영향으로 NO 저감 효율 면에서 약 10%의 효율 향상이 있었으며, 이와 더불어 첨가제를 첨가하지 않은 경우에 비해 $N_2O$ 저감 효율과 SNCR 반응의 반응온도 확장 면에서 뚜렷한 효율 증진을 얻을 수 있었다.

  • The pulp mold attract the increasing concern as recyclable, biodegradable, and eco-friendly packaging materials. In order to broaden the applicability of the pulp mold as substitutes of the expanded styrofoam, the properties of various raw materials for the pulp mold were evaluated and the way for improving water resistance properties of the pulp mold were also tested by applying some additives. The higher value in the fines contents and in the water retention value were shown for the TMP (thermomechanical pulp), which resulted in the bulkier pulp mold with the higher moisture absorption property. In case of water resistance properties, the pulp mold made of white ledger stock showed the higher value in water contact angle and very slow water absorption rate. The addition of oil palm EFB fiber showed the improvement in the water resistance of the pulp mold made of UBKP. The effects of various additives on the improvement in the water resistance properties of the pulp mold were tested by using AKD, PVAm, epoxy resin. The application of AKD leaded to the higher increase in the water resistance. The results in this study showed the effects of AKD for the pulp mold could be improved and optimized by the application with fixing agent and by the ageing treatment after production.

  • Experimental investigation of drag reduction by adding a polymer additive(polyacrylamid, N-401P) into water is carried out in a Circular Water Channel. The effect of viscosity, surface roughness and degradation as a function of running time is also measured with varying the concentration of polymer additives(20ppm,100ppm) and Reynolds numbers. Near and far wakes past a circular cylinder are observed by LDV. Drag forces are measured with a strain-gaged device. The experimental results show that around 5%-30% of drag reduction with the polymer solution are observed. The larger effects of drag reduction can be found at low range of Reynolds number, more roughened surface cylinder. The effect of polymer solution for near wakes is larger than for far wakes.

  • This study examined the effect of curing conditions on the compressive strength of dry mortar for floor. The compressive strength according to the relative humidity during curing was compared, and the influence of expansive additives on compressive strength under water curing was reviewed. As a result, low relative humidity conditions during curing was not effective in improving the compressive strength of dry mortar for floor, and it was judged that the continuous hydration reaction insufficient due to lack of the moisture supply. In order to improve compressive strength, high relative humidity maintenance was found to be an important factor. However, under water curing conditions, the compressive strength has decreased as a result of continuous volume expansion due to the use of the expansive additives.
