Swelling and fibrillation of two kinds of lyocell, $Tencel^{(R)}$ and $Lyocell^{(R)}$, were investigated using polarizing and scanning electron microscope (SEM). $Tencel^{(R)}$ of a representative lyocell showed that loop tenacity which is related to wrinkle and resilience of fiber does not show significant reduction in wet state. Two kinds of lyocell exhibited surprising degree of swelling in aqueous NaOH solution under free tension. Diameters of $Tencel^{(R)}$ and $Lyocell^{(R)}$ swelled up to 670% and 830%, respectively in the range of around 10% NaOH concentration. Molecular orientation estimated by birefringence also reduced remarkably in alkaline solution. Moreover, diameter and birefringence which changed in alkaline solution did not recovered to original level even after washing and drying. Fibrillation of $Lyocell^{(R)}$ fiber observed by SEM seems to be easier than that of $Tencel^{(R)}$. In order to understand the difference between $Tencel^{(R)}$ and $LyoceJl^{(R)}$, further study on the structure of the two fibers will be followed.

알칼리키토산과 프로필렌옥사이드를 반응시킴에 의해 유방성 및 열방성 액정상을 형성하는 새로운 히드록시프로필키토산(HPCTO)을 합성함과 동시에 HPCTO/메탄올의 유방성 액정용액에 glyoxal첨가하여 주형시킴에 의해 HPCTO의 가교필름들을 제조하였다. 가교필름들의 열 및 팽윤 특성을 검토하였다. 필름들은 cholesteric 액정상의 특징적인 지문조직을 나타내었으며 이들의 pitch는 온도 및 가교제의 농도가 증가할수록 증가하였다. 가교시료들은 물과 메탄을 중에서 이방성 팽윤을 나타내었으며, 이러한 사실은 HPCTO분자들간에 2차원적인 가교가 우선적으로 일어남을 시사한다. 이방성 팽윤의 정도는 용매의 종류에 크게 의존하나 검토된 가교제의 농도에는 의존하지 않았다.

Time-dependent stress-strain behaviour significantly influences the compressibility characteristics of the clayey soil. In this paper, a series of oedometer tests were conducted in two loading patterns and investigated the time-dependent compressibility characteristics of Indian Montmorillonite Clay, also known as black cotton soil (BC) soil, during loading-unloading stages. The experimental data are analyzed using a new non-linear function of the Elasto-Visco-Plastic Model considering Swelling behaviour (EVPS model). From the experimental result, it is found that BC soil exhibits significant time-dependent behaviour during creep compared to the swelling stage. Pore water entrance restriction due to consolidated overburden pressure and decrease in cation hydrations are responsible factors. Apart from it, particle sliding is also evident during creep. The time-dependent parameters like strain limit, creep coefficient and C_αe/C_c are observed to be significant during the loading stage than the swelling stage. The relationship between creep coefficients and applied stresses is found to be nonlinear. The creep coefficient increases significantly up to 630 kPa-760 kPa (during reloading), and beyond it, the creep coefficient decreases continuously. Several parameters like loading duration, the magnitude of applied stress, loading history, and loading path have also influenced secondary compressibility characteristics. The time-dependent compressibility characteristics of BC soil are presented and discussed in detail.

This study was undertaken to find out the effect of dropwort on histopathological changes of cadmium toxicity in mice. Thirty two mice of BALB/c strain were divided into a control group (A) and three experimental groups (B, C, D). Each group was consisted of four males and four females : group A received tap water and basal diet, group B received tap water and diet supplemented with 100 mg/kg of cadmium, group C received dropwort juice and diet supplemented with 100 mg/kg of cadmium, group D received dropwort juice and basal diet. All mice were dissected on the 35th day. Pathological changes in liver, kidney, spleen, heart, lung, stomach and muscle were observed. Group D showed no significant change as the control group. But group B showed many cytoplasmic vacuoles and necrosis of hepatocytes, glomerular swelling, and degeneration and necrosis of convoluted tubules in kidney, marked congestion and hemorrhage, and a large number of variably sized alveolar macrophages appearance in lung and swelling in some part of muscle fiber. On the other hand, group C showed a little convalescent changes and maintained their normal architectures in liver, kidney, lung and muscle.

N-substituted acrylamide hydrogel is reported to have the feature of bing transparent and sensitive enough to response to a temperature stimulus below the temperature of phase transition. Especially at the near of 35 C it becomes shrunk and opaque very quickly. It has also the characteristic of reversing swelling and shrinking. The experiment showed that it is possible to produce a functional gel of super water absorption with the process of free radical polymerizing PVA(polyvinylalcohol) and PAA(polyacrylamide), and crosslinking. The ratio of shrinking and swelling caused by copolymerization rises 10% to 80% at the each temperature of 20 C, 30 C, 40 C, respectively. Phase transition temperature of this gel by copolymerization is50 C while that of ordinary N-substituted acrylamides is between 32~35 C. This temperature reaches the rearing limit of animals and plants so that volumetric transition polymer gel can be ulilized in varying fields such as agriculture/gardening which are water-using field, on-off switch sensing temperature and volumetric variation, processing of liquid wastes and civil engineering works, architecture and electronics. We have no doubt that this material will be the high-functional resin in the hi-tech age of the near future.

The effects of Chelidonii Herba on the cell mediate and humoral immune responses were investigated in ICR mice. ICR mice received intraperitoneal injection of methanol extracts (ether fraction, buthanol fraction, water fraction) for 5 days before sensitization. The change of body weight (%), the organ weight ratio (%), the numbers of RBC and WBC, the ear swelling by dinitrofluorobenzene, the titers of hemagglutination (HA) and hemolysin (HY) to SRBC were determined. The results were as follows; 1. The change of body weight (%) showed a tendency of increasing generally. 2. The weight of spleen (%) revealed decreasing but that of thymus revealed increasing. 3. Ear swelling was maxium at 48 hours after challenge and was significantly decreased in the groups treated with Ether, Buthanol and Water. 4. The numbers of RBC and WBC were decreased generally. 5. HA and HY titers were decreased significantly.

In this paper, the thermal stress analysis of spent nuclear fuel disposal canister in a deep repository at 500m underground is done for the underground pressure variation. Since the nuclear fuel disposal usually emits much heat and radiation, its careful treatment is required. And so a long term safe repository at a deep bedrock is used. Under this situation, the canister experiences some mechanical external loads such as hydrostatic pressure of underground water, swelling pressure of bentonite buffer, and the thermal load due to the heat generation of spent nuclear fuel in the basket etc.. Hence, the canister should be designed to designed to withstand these loads. In this paper, the thermal stress analysis is done using the finite element analysis code, NISA.

Photopolymerization of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate(HEMA), in the presence of ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate(EGDMA) and 1-Hydroxycyclohexyl phenyl ketone as crosslinker and photoinitiator, respectively, produced crosslinked poly-HEMA hydrogels. The hydrogels were colored by the exhaustion of vinylsul-phone-type reactive dyes. Good colorfastness to laundering was achieved when colored with C.I. Reactive Black 5. We investigated that the effect of coloration on the hydrophilicity and swelling properties of the films. More hydrophilic gel-surfaces were generated with in increase in coloration and crosslinking. Higher surface energy was observed with higher crosslinking level. The more rapid and higher water swellability of poly-HEMA gels after coloration may be resulted from a more opened gel structure by the easier hydration of the hydrophilic sulphonic acid groups of the reacted dyes in water.
