인공광을 이용한 보광은 시설재배에서 작물의 정상적인 생육과 수확량을 유지하고 품질 향상을 위하여 사용되는 실용적인 방법이다. 본 연구의 목적은 황 플라스마 램프(SP)와 고압 나트륨 램프(HPS)의 보광이 파프리카의 생육 및 수확량에 미치는 영향을 조사하는 것이다. 생장상에서는 SP 및 HPS를 기본 광원으로, 온실에서는 보광으로 사용하여 작물 생육에 미치는 효과를 비교 분석하였다. 생장상에서는 정식 2 주 후 SP와 HPS 하에서 초장, 엽면적, 줄기 직경, 엽수, 생체중 및 건물중을 매주 측정 하였다. 온실재배에서는 무보광을 대조구로 하였다. 보광은 07:00부터 21:00까지 외부일사 100W·m-2 미만일 때 처리되도록 하였다. 보광 처리 후 3주부터 매주 생육량을 측정하였고, 2주 마다 수확하여 과실수와 과실무게를 측정하였다. 생장상에서는 높은 광합성속도로 인하여 SP가 HPS보다 생육이 양호하였고, 온실에서는 보광처리가 대조구보다 수확량이 유의적으로 높았다. 온실에서의 초장, 마디수, 엽장, 생체중, 건물중은 SP와 HPS 간의 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 그러나 수확 시 과실수와 수량은 광합성 증진과 및 과실수의 증가로 인하여 SP에서 많았다. SP는 태양광과 유사한 광 스펙트럼을 보였으나, HPS와 비교하여 높은 PAR과 적색과 원적색 파장의 광양자속의 합이 높았기 때문에 파프리카의 광합성과 수확량을 증가시켰다.

바다속 60 km 깊이의 수압과 같은 압력을 사용하여 순간적이고 균일한 압력전달로 가열공정을 최소화함으로써 신선한 맛과 향, 텍스처, 비타민의 유지 등 품질보존을 할 수 있는 기술인 HPP는 식중독과 부패미생물을 억제하는 효과를 가져올 수 있는 기술로 현재 가장 활발히 연구되고 있는 분야이다. 기존의 열처리가 단백질의 변성, 화학적 변화, 전분의 호화, 효소의 활성에 영향을 미쳐서 보존성을 유지한다면 HPP는 열처리의 장점은 그대로 갖고 있으면서 열처리에서 야기되는 원치 않는 화학적 변화를 최소화할 수 있다는 장점을 갖고 있다 보존기간이 길어 소비자들이 우려하는 첨가물의 사용이 필수적인 육류가공품에 대해서는 초고압처리에 대한 국내 연구가 미비하여 본 연구에서는 대표적인 육가공품인 슬라이스햄에 대해 600MPa 초고압처리(0분, 4분, 6분)가 이들의 신선도에 미치는 영향을 실험하였다. 수분함량은 48~69%, 염도 1.07-1.11%에서 변화를 보이고 있었고, pH는 처음 6.4-6.5에서 6.1-6.15까지 낮아졌으나 대조군과 처리군간의 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 초고압처리 후 20oC에서 보관한 일반세균 결과는 4주까지 모든 군에서 미미한 수준에서 일반미생물이 발견되었으나 5주부터는 대조군과 HPP 6분 처리군에서 105을 초과하였고 7주에는 4분 처리군, 6분처리군에서 식품으로 섭취가 불가능한 106을 초과하는 것으로 나타났다. 대장균군은 20oC 가중실험으로 7주간 관찰하였음에도 불구하고 모든 군에서 대장균군이 발견되지 않았다. 육류의 단백질 신선도 판정에 사용되는 방법인 VBN은 4주차까지는 1 mg% 미만의 VBN값을 보였고 5주부터는 1~2 mg%의 값을 나타냈다. 그러나 군별 차이는 나타나지 않았다(p > 0.05). 육의 조직내 지방 산패 정도의 지표로 사용되는 TBA는 7주가 끝날 때까지 0.18 mgMA/kg 이하였고 이 수치는 신선육의 범위에 들며, 처리군별 차이를 보이지 않았다. 본 실험에서는 포장재의 변성이 발생하지 않았고 가스의 발생으로 인한 부풀어 오름도 발생하지 않았는데, HPP의 효과가 전혀 관찰되지 않은 사실은 포장재의 밀착으로 인한 공기와의 차단만으로 기본적인 보존 효과를 보인 것이 아닌가 사료된다.

The investigation on the lightweight of automobiles has been underway in commercial vehicles as well as passenger cars due to global warming and strengthening of European emission standards. In this study, the V-arm were developed for lightweight parts using aluminum alloy instead of steel with high pressure die casting processing. This study has focused on lightweight adaptive concept design. Several models of V-arm were designed and analyzed for the fluidity and solidification. V-arm was produced with ADC12 by high pressure die-casting process. The mechanical properties of developed V-arm were measured; such as tensile strength, elongation, shear strength, and durability. The possibility of mass production with the light weight aluminum V-arm substitute from the steel. The weight was reduced about 38% from 16kg to 9.98kg. The productivity was improved with decreasing the process from 8 to 5 by All-in-0ne process using high pressure die-casting.

Using a high pressure homonizer, we report on the electrochemical performance of Li4Ti5O12(LTO) particles manufactured as anode active material for lithium ion battery. High-pressure synthesis processing is performed under conditions in which the mole fraction of Li/Ti is 0.9, the synthesis pressure is 2,000 bar and the numbers of passings-through are 5, 7 and 10. The observed X-ray diffraction patterns show that pure LTO is manufactured when the number of passings-through is 10. It is found from scanning electron microscopy analysis that the average size of synthesized particles decreases as the number of passings-through increases. LiCoO2-based active cathode materials are used to fabricate several coin half/full cells and their battery characteristics such as lifetime, rate capability and charge transfer resistance are then estimated, revealing quite good electrochemical performance of the LTO particles as an effective anode active material for lithium secondary batteries.

The purposes of this study was to investigate the effect of high pressure processing (HPP) on a sterilization and microbiological shelf-life of commercial beef patties by varying the pressure level (200, 300, 400, and 500 MPa), treatment time (0-10 min), and storage period (0-16 day at 4oC). The HPP treatment of 200 MPa were ineffective, however the treatment of 300, 400, and 500 MPa reduced the bacterial count by 0.61-1.16, 1.11-1.69, and 2.73-3.86 log (CFU/g), respectively. During 16 days of storage, the viable cell numbers in beef patties treated with 400 and 500 MPa were substantially lower than those in the non-treated control. The control count reached 6.6 log CFU/g after 16 days at 4oC, but after the same storage time, the counts in HPP-treated samples of 400 and 500 MPa were 4.7 and 3.1 log CFU/g, respectively. After an HPP treatment of 200-500 MPa, the pH values were approximately 5.83-6.28. During the 16 days of storage, the pH values in the samples of 400-500 MPa were maintained at initial levels throughout the storage period, regardless of treatment time for HPP.

The objectives of this study were to characterize the physicochemical properties of ginger (Zingiber officinale Rosc.) and the optimum extract processing condition to increase the solubilization efficiency of 6-gingerol and polysaccharides disintegration. The physicochemical properties were investigated under high-pressure enzyme (HP) and enzyme (WB) treatment conditions such as reaction time (1, 2, 3 h), pressure (50, 70, 100 MPa) and sample types, and cell wall degradation enzyme (hemicellulase, cellulase, pectinase, glucosidase, etc.) The effect of high-pressure enzyme treatment depending on sample types was significantly highest in the freeze-dried ginger powder. The optimum condition for high-pressure enzyme treatment was with Pectinex Ultra SP-L (Pec) enzymes for 2 h at 50oC and 100 MPa. Water soluble indexes increased 4.6 and 3.8 times more compared to CON (15.35%) while total polyphenol contents increased by 1.8 and 1.7 times compared to CON (1.43%). The total contents of indicator components such as 6, 8, 10-gingerol and shogaol was 1.53%, increasing 2.7 times more compared to CON (0.57%) with a significant difference (p<0.001). The high-pressure and enzymatic approach described in this study would be beneficial to food industries for developing ginger functional product and materials.

Molybdenum (Mo) is one of the representative refractory metals for its high melting point, superior thermal conductivity, low density and low thermal expansion coefficient. However, due to its high melting point, it is necessary for Mo products to be fabricated at a high sintering temperature of over 1800-2000 oC. Because this process is expensive and inefficient, studies to improve sintering property of Mo have been researched actively. In this study, we fabricated Mo nanopowders to lower the sintering temperature of Mo and tried to consolidate the Mo nanopowders through ultra high pressure compaction. We first fabricated Mo nanopowders by a mechano-chemical process to increase the specific surface area of the Mo powders. This process includes a high-energy ball milling step and a reduction step in a hydrogen atmosphere. We compacted the Mo nanopowders with ultra high pressure by magnetic pulsed compaction (MPC) before pressureless sintering. Through this process, we were able to improve the green density of the Mo compacts by more than 20% and fabricate a high density Mo sintered body with more than a 95 % sintered density at relatively low temperature.

본 연구는 홍삼 유화 음료의 유통기한 예측을 위하여 수행하였다. 저장기간 동안 이화학적 특성 (산도, pH, 지방구크기, 색도) 및 관능적 특성의 변화를 주기적으로 조사하였다. 저장 초기에 홍삼 유화 음료의 산도, pH 및 지방구 크기는 거의 변화하지 않았으나 저장 후반기(70일 이후)에는 유의적으로 변화하 였으며 이는 주로 Maillard reaction 의한 것으로 추정하였다. 관능특성과 이화학적 특성들과의 상관분석을 통하여 색도 a 값(적색도)을 홍삼 유화 음료의 이화학적 품질지표로 설정하였다. Arrhenius 식에 의한 a값 변화에 대한 활성화 에너지 및 Q10-value는 각각 13.37 kcal/mol, 1.56-2.14로 조사되었으며, 홍삼 유화 음료의 유통기한은 상온(20℃) 보관의 경우 730일(약 2년)로 예측되었다.

We investigated the influence of germination and high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) treatment conditions on the conversion of functional compounds and antioxidant activity in adzuki bean. The adzuki bean germinated at 25°C for three- or six-days, and was later subjected to HHP at 0.1, 50, 100, or 150 MPa for 24 h. The highest polyphenol content (5.36 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/g) and flavonoid content (0.91 mg catechin equivalents (CE)/g) were observed after germination for six days and HHP treatment at 100 MPa for 24 h, respectively. The total phenolic acid contents increased with increasing applied pressure from 88.86 to 208.26 μg/g (100MPa, 24h). Phenolic acids are divided into two categories; those that exhibit increased content upon HHP treatment, and those that exhibit decreased content. The increasing phenolic acids were gallic acid, chlorogenic acid, (+)-catechin, ρ-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, heperidin, salicylic acid, protocatechuic acid, cinnamic acid, naringenin. The total anthocyanin content decreased with increasing applied pressure from 22.42 mg/100 g to 6.28 mg/100 g (150 MPa, 24 h). The highest ABTS radical scavenging activity (8.02 mg eq AA/g) and DPPH radical scavenging activity (1.22 eq Trolox/g) were observed after germination for six days and HHP treatment at 100MPa for 24h, respectively. These results suggested that the combination of HHP and germination can lead to improved functionality in adzuki bean.

The objective of this study was to investigate the non-thermal sterilization effect of methods such as high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) and UV-irradiation (specifically with regard to the storage stability and shelf-life of carrot juice. The microbial counts of the non-sterilized product increased from 5.51 to 7.34 log CFU/mL up to the fifth day, and then decreased to 5.46 log CFU/mL at six days. UV-irradiation was increased from 2.37 to 4.92 log CFU/mL. HHP was maintained under the 3 log CFU/mL. The pH of UV-irradiation and HHP was maintained withing the range of 6.29~6.30 and 6.20~6.22 during storage. However, the pH arising from non-sterilization decreased from 6.31 to 4.49. The color of non-sterilization changed significantly during storage, but UV-irradiation and HHP were similar during storage. The β- carotene content of non-sterilization was noted to have decreased from 269.45 to 65.19 μg/mL during storage. The UV- irradiation and HHP decreased from 263.46 and 268.35~281.16 μg/mL to 243.42 and 244.09~269.29 μg/mL, respectively. In conclusion, these findings suggest that HHP can be used for the pasteurization, or sterilization, of carrot juice and the optimal condition is two minutes.

Synthesized monocrystalline nanodiamond (nD) particles are heat-treated at various temperatures to produce highly structured diamond crystals. The heat-treated nDs show different weight loss ratios during thermogravimetric analysis. The crystallinities of the heat-treated nDs are analyzed using Raman spectroscopy. The average particle sizes of the heat-treated nDs are measured by a dynamic light scattering (DLS) system and direct imaging observation methods. Moreover, individual dispersion behaviors of the heat-treated nD particles are investigated based on ultrasonic dispersion methods. The average particle sizes of the dispersed nDs according to the two different measurement methods show very similar size distributions. Thus, it is possible to produce highly crystallized nD powder particles by a heattreatment process, and the nD particles are relatively easy to disperse individually without any dispersant. The heattreated nDs can lead to potential applications such as in nanocomposites, quantum dots, and biomedical materials.

In this study, two Fe-30Mn-0.2C-(1.5Al) high-manganese steels with different surface conditions were hydrogencharged under high temperature and pressure; then, tensile testing was performed at room temperature in air. The yield strength of the 30Mn-0.2C specimen increased with decreasing surface roughness(achieved via polishing), but that of the 30Mn-0.2C- 1.5Al specimen was hardly affected by the surface conditions. On the other hand, the tendency of hydrogen embrittlement of the two high-manganese steels was not sensitive to hydrogen charging or surface conditions from the standpoints of elongation and fracture behavior. Based on the EBSD analysis results, the small decrease in elongation of the charged specimens for the Fe-30Mn-0.2C-(1.5Al) high-manganese steels was attributed to the enhanced dislocation pile-up around grain boundaries, caused by hydrogen

Cutting tools tend to wear gradually with progressing of machining process due to extremely high surface loads and temperature from the relative motions between tool and workpiece. Especially, the high cutting temperature is a dominant factor in the relation to tool life. High-pressure coolant has been reported as an effective method to prevent the severe wear from cutting temperature. This research investigates efficient supplying conditions of high-pressure coolant with the CFD results from a internal-flush drilling process. The flow rate of coolant is increased drastically up to three times under 70 bar compared to conventional way.
