As product packaging becomes an increasingly important tool for conveying brand images to consumers, eco-friendly packaging (EFP) is being extensively adopted by fashion companies. Given this trend, the need for research examining consumer responses to fashion products featuring EFP has increased. This study investigates the effects of attitude and subjective norms on consumers’ purchase intention of fashion products using EFP, and further explores the moderating roles of gender and ethical self-identity (ESI). A survey including 360 male and female consumers in their 20s and 30s was conducted, and the data were analyzed using multiple regression analysis. The results indicate that both attitude and subjective norms positively influence purchase intention. Gender moderated the relationship between subjective norms and purchase intention, with males exhibiting higher purchase intention than females when influenced by social norms. ESI also moderated the relationship between attitude and purchase intention, as well as between subjective norms and purchase intention. Individuals exhibiting higher levels of ESI showed stronger alignment between their attitudes or perceived norms and their purchase intention of EFP products. These findings provide valuable insights and establish a foundational understanding of the key determinants of purchase intention for fashion products with EFP. Furthermore, they provide theoretical insights into sustainable consumer behavior and offer practical implications for fashion marketers seeking to promote eco-conscious consumption.
Marketers increasingly develop strategies to benefit from the potentials of the mobile internet and related technologies. Digitally enhanced product packaging is one prominent example for this evolution and QR (quick response) codes currently give this trend an appearance. QR codes enable manufacturers to provide consumers - despite the limited space on the product package - with comprehensive product information. And consumers increasingly request additional product information, for instance, to monitor environmental factors before purchasing products. Hence, while marketers nowadays regularly use QR codes on product packages to provide consumers with additional product information, they complain about the low usage rates and finally about the effectiveness of QR codes. Extant literature provides little guidance on consumer responses towards these marketing stimuli and, in particular, on how the mere presence of QR codes on product packages affects consumer behavioral and behavior-related responses. Existing research unexceptionally explores how marketers can motivate consumers to scan QR codes (Okazaki et al., 2012; Okazaki et al., 2017) and thus draws a one-sided picture of how marketers can benefit from QR codes. To enrich extant knowledge, this research uses information processing and environmental theory to offer insights into whether and how QR codes on product packages affect consumer product purchasing. The findings of an experimental study illustrate that QR codes affect consumer product purchases by inducing product- and vendor-related cognitive beliefs. In particular, the presence of QR codes on product packaging strengthens consumers’ perceptions about product quality and vendor innovativeness which then positively translate into purchase intentions. Hence, QR codes displayed on product packaging indirectly shape product purchasing. In sum, this research broadens the previous focus on usage-related outcomes by considering how and why QR codes affect consumer purchasing.
본 연구는 포장방법과 저장기간에 따른 국산대두와 연해주 대두의 이화학적인 특성을 조사하기 위하여 TBA test, 산가, POV, fluorescence spectrum test를 실시하였다. 저장 기간이 경과함에 따라 TBA test는 국산대두와 연해주 대두 모두 실험기간 내 포장방법에 따른 유의적인 차이는 있었으나 전체적인 경향은 차이가 없었다. 산가는 국산 대두에서 16일차에 유의미한 차이를 보였으나 20일차에서는 모두 유의차를 보이지 않는 것을 알 수 있었다. 연해주 대두의 경우 저장기간 동안 포장방법에 따른 차이가 없었다. POV의 경우 국산대두에서 저장 16일차까지 유의한 차이가 없었으나 진공포장 20일차에서 1.85 meq/kg oil로 값이 증가하였다. 연해주 대두에서는 초기값과 저장 20일차의 측정값이 10%내의 변화를 보이고 함기포장과 진공포장, 질소충진포장과의 유의차를 나타내지 않아 포장법에 의한 산패도의 차이를 찾아내지 못하였다. Fluorescence spectrum test를 이용한 측정에서는 국산 대두의 경우 같은 경향을 나타내었다. 연해주 대두의 경우도 저장방법 별 산패도 값의 차이는 존재하였지만 같은 경향을 나타내는 것을 알 수 있었다. 연구결과를 토대로 fluorescence spectrum test를 이용하여 산패도를 측정하는데 적합하다고 판단된다. 또한 요오드가, 검화가, 비중 측정을 통해 포장방법과 저장기간을 통한 변화를 측정하였으나 유의할 만한 차이를 나태내지 못하였다. 결과적으로 국산대두와 연해주대두의 저장기간 20일 동안의 산패도의 증가는 나타나지 않았고 포장방법에 따른 산패도의 차이는 없었다. 본 연구의 결과는 연해주산 대두를 수입할 경우 유통기한 중 질소충진과 같은 고비용의 포장법을 적용하지 않더라도 수입 시에 품질변화가 거의 이루어 지지 않음을 보여 주어 실질적으로 국내 소비자에게 연해주산 non-GMO 대두를 경제적으로 공급이 가능함을 보여주었다. 또한 20일의 저장기간 동안 변화가 매우 적음은 현재 대두의 분말가공에 시도되고 있는 집결지 최소가공방식의 최소가공량을 2-3배 확장하여 집결지에서 보다 많은 양을 가공 저장하여 수송함이 가능함을 보여 주고 있다. 이는 연해주대두의 경제적 활용가능성을 보다 높여 줄 것이라 판단된다.

This paper addresses the financial performance effect according to the implementation of SCM packages. Eight financial performance measures were selected based on the literature review. KIS-FAS2004 data on the fifteen companies that implemented SCM packages before December, 2003 were collected to test the effect of SCM implementation. The obtained experimental results show that there are some differences on financial performance measures between before and after the SCM implementation.
This paper proposes an evaluation methodology of commercial Enterprise Resource planning(ERP) packages in the view if end users when the ERP system is employed especially in SMEs. Considering the characteristics and functions of ERP packages, five factors(vendor, technology, function, A/S, price) are obtained based on the review of literature. The proposed evaluation procedure consists of several evaluation items and processes which support the selection of ERP packages for a certain SME. When a company tries to implement the ERP system, the proposed method suggests the suitable ERP package for its own business environment.

To safely dispose of highly radioactive spent resin and concentrate waste generated through nuclear power plant operations, it is essential to meet the physicochemical properties requirements of the packages and ensure the accuracy and reliability of radiological characteristics determination. Both spent resin and concentrate are packaged in high-integrity containers (HICs) after drying and are homogeneous waste products generated in the primary system and liquid radioactive waste treatment system. Meeting the physicochemical properties requirements does not appear to be difficult. However, to achieve reliable radiological characterization of high-integrity container packages, it is necessary to take a representative sample and perform accurate radiological analysis. Therefore, this paper discusses the methodology for evaluating the radionuclide inventory of high radioactive resin and concentrate packages, as well as the essential element technology and considerations. For relatively high radioactive resin and concentrate packages, the radionuclide inventory for each package should be evaluated with high reliability through direct radiological analysis of the representative samples collected for each package. This can contribute to the efficient operation of radioactive waste disposal facilities. Radionuclide-specific concentrations directly analyzed for each package will be managed in a database. As analytical data accumulates and direct measurements of high-integrity container package such as the radwaste drum assay system (RAS) become feasible, statistical techniques such as correlation analysis between easy-tomeasure (ETM) nuclides and difficult-to-measure (DTM) nuclides can lead to the development of efficient and reasonable indirect evaluation methods, such as scaling factor and the mean activity concentration method. As for the element technology, a remote representative sampling technique should be developed to safely and effectively take representative samples of highly radioactive materials, including granulated or hardened concentrate waste. Considerations should also be given to determining the sample quantity representing each package, as well as establishing radiation calibration and measurement methods appropriate to the radiation levels of the representative samples.
Licensing for the application of the Polymer Concrete High Integrity Container (PC-HIC) to nuclear power plants has been completed or is in progress. Approval for the expanded application to all domestic nuclear power plants has been completed to utilize the 860 L PC-HICs for the 2nd stage surface repository, and the regulatory body is reviewing the license application to use the 510 L PCHICs for the 1st stage underground repository in the representative nuclear power plants. The 860 L PC-HICs, which have been licensed for all domestic nuclear power plants, will be used for safe storage management and disposal of low-dose dried concentrate waste and spent resin, and a total of 100 units is expected to be supplied to representative nuclear power plants that have been licensed first. The 510 L PC-HICs are planned to be used for underground disposal of high-dose spent resin and dried concentrate waste. Prior to the application of PC-HICs to nuclear power plants and disposal to the repository, it is necessary to establish realistic and reasonable requirements through close consultations between waste generator and disposal operators to ensure the suitability for disposal of PC-HIC packages and to carry out disposal delivery and acceptance work. Since the Polymer Concrete High Integrity Container (PC-HIC) has long-term integrity of more than 300 years and the barrier does not temporarily collapse, spent resin and dried concentrate waste, which are radioactive wastes to be solidified, can be disposed of much more safely in PC-HIC packages than solidified types. Acceptance criteria for the PC-HIC packages should be prepared fully reflecting the advantages of PC-HIC, and quality assurance methods for physical/chemical/radiological characterization results based on the Waste Certification Program (WCP) should be supported. In addition, infrastructure should be secured for safe transportation, handling, and storage of the PC-HIC packages. In this paper, we have tried to find a reasonable acceptance criteria, quality assurance method, and infrastructure level according to the dose and disposal conditions of PC-HIC packages.
Transport packages have been developed to transport the decommissioning waste from the nuclear power plant. The packages are classified with Type IP-2 package. The IAEA requirements for Type IP-2 packages include that a free drop test should be performed for normal conditions of transport. In this study, drop tests of the packages were performed to prove the structural integrity and to verify the reliability of the analysis results by comparing the test and analysis results. Half-scale models were used for the drop tests and drop position was considered as 0.3 m oblique drop on packages weighing more than 15 tons. The strain and impact acceleration data were obtained to verify the reliability of the analysis results. Before and after the drop tests, radiation shielding tests were performed to confirm that the dose rate increase was within 20% at the external surface of the package. Also, measurement of bolt torque, and visual inspection were performed to confirm the loss or dispersion of the radioactive contents. After each drop test, slight deformations occurred in some packages. However, there was no loss of pretension in the lid bolts and the shielding thickness was not reduced for metal shields. In the package with concrete shield, the surface dose rate did not increase and there was no cracks or damage to the concrete. Therefore, the transport packages met the legal requirements (no more than a 20% increase of radiation level and no loss or dispersion of radioactive contents). Safety verifications were performed using the measured strain and acceleration data from the test, and the appropriate conservatism for the analysis results and the validity of the analysis model were confirmed. Therefore, it was found that the structural integrity of the packages was maintained under the drop test conditions. The results of this study were used as design data of the transport packages, and the packages will be used in the NPP decommissioning project in the future.
Radioactive spent resin and concentrate waste powder generated from the primary system of nuclear power plants (NPPs) should be treated and disposed of in the form of solidified products or high integrity container (HIC) packages. We are preparing for the application of polymer concrete high integrity containers (PC-HICs) that has been approved for disposal and field application after going through the disposal suitability review of the repository operator and the license review process of the regulatory body. A reliable assessment of nuclide inventory in waste drum is required for the disposal of the radioactive waste drums, and the representative samples should be collected for both the indirect (non-destructive assessment based on the scaling factor, average radioactivity concentration, etc.) and direct (destructive analysis) evaluation of the difficult-to-measure (DTM) nuclides. It is important to secure the representativeness of samples for reliable and accurate evaluation of radionuclide inventory and approval of methodologies for highly radioactive waste such as spent resin and concentrate waste poser, and in order to secure the radiation safety of the sampling workers and representativeness of the samples, a remote sampling method is required with excellent convenience and safety and sufficient representativeness of the sample. The simple sampling device used in the past to collect samples for the scaling factor does not have a remote control function, so high-radiation samples must be collected within a very short time and it is difficult to obtain sufficiently representative samples due to structural characteristics that cannot collect the entire sample in the axial direction of the package. Therefore we developed concept designs for a remote sampling device that can satisfy both sample representativeness, operator convenience and safety.
High Integrity Container (HIC) made of polymer concrete was developed for the efficient treatment and safe disposal of radioactive spent resin and concentrate waste in consideration of the disposal requirements of domestic disposal sites. Permission for application of Polymer Concrete High Integrity Container (PC-HIC) to the domestic nuclear power plants (NPPs) has been completed or is under examination by the regulatory agency. In the case of 860 L PC-HIC for very-low-level-waste (VLLW) or low low-level-waste (LLW), the application of four representative NPPs has been approved, and the license for extended application to the rest NPPs is also almost completed. A licensing review is also underway to apply 510 L PC-HIC for intermediate and low-level-waste (ILLW) to representative nuclear power plants. In order to handle and efficiently store and manage PC-HICs and high-dose PCHIC packages, a gripper device that can be remotely operated and has excellent safety is essential, and the introduction of NPPs is urgent. The conventional gripper device developed by the PC-HIC manufacturer for lifting test to evaluate the structural integrity of PC-HIC requires a rather wide storage interval due to its design features, and does not have a passive safety design to handle heavy materials safely. In addition, work convenience needs to be reinforced for safety management of high radiation work. Therefore, we developed a conceptual design for a gripper device with a new concept to minimize the work space by reflecting on-site opinions on the handling and storage management conditions of radioactive waste in NPPs, and to enhances work safety with the passive safety design by the weight of the package and the function of checking the normal seating of the device and the normal operation of the grip by the detector/indicator, and to greatly improves the work efficiency and convenience with the wireless power supply function by rechargeable battery and the remote control function by camera and wireless monitoring & control system. Through design review by experts in mechanical system, power supply and instrumentation & control fields and further investigations on the usage conditions of PC-HICs, it is planned to facilitate preparations for the application of PC-HIC to domestic NPPs by securing the technical basis for a gripper device that can be used safely and efficiently and seeking ways to introduce it in a timely manner.
