This study investigates the physicochemical and sensory properties of the soy-based patties using κ-carrageenan (CG) and methyl-cellulose (MC) as binders. Soy-based patties were prepared using 0%-2% of κ-carrageenan and methyl-cellulose in proportion, and the quality change of soy-based patties was measured by storing them at 4oC for 4 weeks. During the storage periods, the water holding capacity of ‘MC 1.5%+CG 0.5%’ showed high values. As the MC content increased, the weight loss and cooking loss tended to decrease, and both values increased significantly during the storage period. As the MC content increased, the lightness and redness tended to decreased. The hardness and chewiness of soy-based patties tended to increase as the MC content increased. During the storage period, the total aerobic bacteria and the coliforms tended to increase. The VBN content was showed 14.6-17.5 mg%/100g in first week, since then, the VBN content has continued to increase. As a result of sensory evaluation, the springiness, taste and overall acceptability of soy-based patties with ‘MC 1.5%+CG 0.5%’ and ‘MC 2.0%’ showed the highest value.

In the present work, AMC/ZnO, AMC/Au, and AMC/Zeo conjugated membranes was prepared by vapor induced phase separation (VIPS) method and used for fouling study. each membrane the nanoparticles [Zinc oxide (ZnO), gold(Au) & Zeolite (Zeo)] was used separately. The prepared membranes are characterized by surface morphology and contact angle to investigate the influence of nanoparticles. The fouling resistant ability of the AMC conjugated membranes was analyzed using bovine serum albumin(BSA) protein and calculated the series model analysis by means of resistance. The fouled membranes was investigated to realize the surface properties considered as essential for fouling propensity. The experimental results correlate the changes in BSA separation efficiency and fouling resistance properties of AMC conjugated membranes with surface morphology.

막분리 공정의 응용범위와 시장규모가 증가함에 따라 효과적인 물질분리를 위해 다양한 분리공정이 이용되고 있다. 이중 정수처리공정에서 수질의 안전성, 자동화 등의 장점 때문에 분리막에 대한 관심이 증가되고 있으며, 정수처리에 사용되는 대부분의 분리막은 강한 내구성, 장수명성 등이 요구되어, 이를 위하여 막오염 저항성이 크게 요구된다. 일반적으로 셀룰로오스 계열은 친수성이 강하며 막오염 저항성이 우수하고 정밀여과막이나 한외여과막 소재로 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 고분자량을 갖는 친수성 소재인 아세틸화된 메틸 셀룰로오스를 사용하여 한외중공사막을 다양한 조건에서 제조하고 제조된 막의 구조적 특성 및 투과분리 특성에 대하여 살펴보았다.

Methyl methacrylate(MMA) was grafted onto microcrystalline cellulose(MCC) with ceric ammonium nitrate(CAN) as a redox initiator at the various conditions. The cellulose triacetate(CTA) composite films added MCC and MMA-grafted MCC powders were prepared on a glass plate. The graft yield(GY) and graft efficiency(GE) of the grafted MCC were calculated with the simple equations by the weight balance method. The double bond of C=O on the grafted MCC surfaces was confirmed by the fourier transform infrared spectroscopy with attenuated total reflection(FT-IT ATR) spectrophotometer. After grafting, the degree of crystallinity of cellulose powders was decresed by judging from x-ray diffraction(XRD) data. Scanning electron microscope(SEM) photos showed the only solvent and CAN solution could change the roughness of MCC powders and the effect of powder dispersions in composite matrix. The tensile strength of MCC/CTA composite films was decreased with increase of MCC powder contents. When 5% grafted MCC was added, the tensile strength of grafted MCC/CTA composite films was increased from 82.3 MPa to 97.2 MPa. The thermal property of powders was also analyzed by the thermogravimetric analysis(TGA).

기존의 솔레노이드 밸브는 전자부품에 기계적 운동요소를 포함하여 비선형성을 내포하고 있으나, MC 성분의 ER유체를 이용하면, 유동체의 통과부분을 전기장 제어를 통하여 솔레노이드 밸브 기능을 대신할 수 있는 메카니즘을 구현할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 유기성인 MC성분 ER유체를 유압시스템에 솔레노이드 밸브 역할에 적용하기 위해, 부과하는 직류 전기장의 사이클 수에 따른 기계적특성에 대한 평가는 다음과 같다. MC성분 ER유체의 전단속도비에 대한 전단응력 분포변화는 2.0kV/mm까지 전기장을 인가했을 경우, 횡축의 전단속도가 증가하여도 종축의 전단응력은 거의 변하지 않았다. 60만 사이클을 반복한 후 ITMC25의 전단응력 실험결과, 2.0kV/mm 이상 전기량을 인가하면 2차원적인 곡선의 형태를 형성하지만 표준편차의 평가치가 오차한계 이내이므로 직선으로 판단하여도 무리가 없을 것으로 사료되었다. 구리 전극으로 전기장을 부과한 경우 MC 성분의 ER유체는 0.1~0.3μm까지의 표면거칠기를 나타냈고, 알루미늄 전극을 사용한 경우는 전기장 부과 초기에 0.3μm의 표면거칠기가 0.2μm로 감소하였으나 40만 사이클의 전기장 부과 이후는 약간의 요철변화가 있었다.(이 논문의 결론 부분임)
