40$0^{\circ}C$ $H_2O$ steam 분위기에서 Zr-2,5wt%Nb 및 Zr-20wt%Nb 합금의 산화거동을 열처리조건에 따른 미세조직 관점에서 고찰하였으며, 형성된 oxide를 분석하여 산화기구를 규명하고자 하였다. Zr-Nb 합금의 산화거동은 열처리에 따라 협성된 조직상에 매우 민감하였는데, 주 조직인 a-Zr 상 보다는 $\beta$상들에 ($\beta$-Zr, $\beta$-Nb) 보다 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 보인다. $\beta$-Zr 상은 $\alpha$-Zr 상에 비해 부식저항성이 낮으며, 그 양에 관계없이 유사한 정도의 부식거동을 보인다. $\beta$-Nb 상의 경우, 미세한 크기로 적은양이 존재하는 경우 부식저항성에 별다른 영향이 없어 보이는 반면, 상당량의 $\beta$-Nb 상이 조대한 크기로 (약 0,2$\mu\textrm{m}$) 존재하는 경우 매우 불안정한 부식거동을 보였다. 이들 $\beta$상들의 낮은 산화저항성은 Nb$_2$O$_{5}$ 을 포함한 Nb 계 oxide의 형성에 주로 기인한 것으로 추정된다.

$Na^+$-beta-alumina solid electrolyte was synthesized by solid state reaction using $Li_2O$ and MgO as a phase stabilizer, and the effect of stabilizers on the phase formation and sintering density was investigated. In order to determine the phase fraction according to the synthesizing temperature, the molar ratio of [$Na_2O$] : [$Al_2O_3$] was fixed at 1 : 5, and calcination was conducted at temperatures between $1200{\sim}1500^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. In the $Li_2O$-$Na_2O$-$Al_2O_3$ ternary system, ${\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}$-alumina phase fraction considerably increased by the secondary phase transition at $1500^{\circ}C$, whereas it maintained similarly in the MgO-$Na_2O$-$Al_2O_3$ system. Additionally, the disc-type specimens of $Na^+$-beta-alumina were sintered at the temperature between $1550{\sim}1650^{\circ}C$ for 30 min, and relative sintering densities, phase changes, and microstructures were analyzed. In case of $Li_2O$-stabilized $Na^+$-beta-alumina, ${\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}$-phase fraction and relative density of specimen sintered at $1600^{\circ}C$ were 94.7% and 98%, respectively. Relative density of MgO-stabilized $Na^+$-beta-alumina increased with a rise in sintering temperature.

Iron- silicide has been produced by mechanical alloying process and consolidated by hot pressing. As-consolidated iron silicides were consisted of $\beta$-FeSi$_2$ phase, and untransformed mixture of $\alpha$-$Fe_2Si_5$ and $\varepsilon$-FeSi phases. Isothermal annealing has been carried out to induce the transformation to a thermoelectric semiconducting $\beta$-$FeSi_2$ phase. The condition for $\beta$-FeSi$_2$ transformation was investigated by utilizing DTA, SEM, TEM and XRD analysis. The phase transformation was shown to be taken place by a vacuum isothermal annealing at $830^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. The mechanical and thermoelectric properties of $\beta$-FeSi$_2$ materials before and after isothermal annealing were characterized in this study.

일반적으로 Al-Mg-Zn 합금의 ${\beta}$상($Al_aMg_b$) 조직은 내식성의 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있으며 ${\beta}$상 조직이 입계에 연속적으로 형성될 경우 내식성이 감소하는 주요 원인이 되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Al-Mg-Zn 합금을 균질화하여 ${\beta}$상 조직을 변화시켰고, 그 변화에 따른 내식성의 거동을 확인하였다. 균질화 조건은 ${\beta}$상 조직의 고용 가능한 온도인 $400^{\circ}C$이상의 온도에서 진행 하였으며 균질화 조건에 따른 미세조직, 조성 분석, ${\beta}$상 조직의 고용정도를 확인하기위해 광학현미경(optical microscpe), 전자현미경(scanning electron microscope), X선 회절 분석법(X-ray Diffraction)을 사용하였다. 또한, 미세조직에 의한 내식성은 $25^{\circ}C$, 3.5wt% NaCl용액에서 분극 시험으로 평가하였다.

Microstructure of aluminum alloys produced by the different mixing ratio of secondary ingot made by aluminum UBC (used beverage can) and virgin aluminum was investigated. The phase transitions of casted ingot by heat treatment were also studied. The alloys were melted at the electric resistance furnace, then casted using ceramic filter. Homogenization heat treatment was conducted at $615^{\circ}C$ for 10hrs to control cast microstructure. There were several kinds of phases, in as-cast condition, such as $\alpha$($Al_{12}$ $((Fe,Mn)_3$Si), $\beta$($Al_{6}$ (Fe,Mn)), and fine $Mg_2$Si phases. Especially, the amount of $\beta$-phase which was harmful in forming process was large. The $\beta$-Phase formed was transformed to u-phase by heat treatment. The fine $Mg_2$Si in the aluminum matix was also transformed to $\alpha$-phase by this heat treatment. Impurities filtered during casting process were identified as intermetallic compounds of Fe, Cu, Si.

Workability and aging behavior of Mg-Li-Al alloys hate been investigated with variation of Li and Al contents. It was found that ${\alpha}$(HCP) + ${\beta}$(BCC) two phase structure reveals better workability than ${\alpha}$(HCP) single phase structure. Increase of workability is attributed to the additional slip on pyramidal and prism planes besides the slip on basal plane of HCP Mg. Workability of ${\alpha}$+${\beta}$ two phase structure is improved with increased amount of Al. Among alloys studied in the present study, reduction limit up to 62 % was obtained for Mg-8.08Li-4.26Al. MgL$i_2$Al(${\theta}$) aging precipitation was observed in ${\alpha}$+ ${\beta}$ two phase structure, while it was not in a single phase structure. Result of microhardness reveals peak hardness for ${\alpha}$ +${\beta}$ two phase structure due to $\theta$ precipitate in ${\theta}$ phase. In ${\alpha}$+${\beta}$ two phase Mg-Li-Al alloys, hardness increased with increasing amount of Al. It is believed that addition of Al raised the amount Al partition in u phase and ${\theta}$ precipitation in ${\beta}$ phase.

Mn((Cu0.66AI0.34)1-x(Bi0.3Sb0.7)x) 및 Mn((Fe0.66AI0.34)1-x(Bi0.3Sb0.7)x) 합금계의 상의 변화와 자기적 특성을 조사하였다. Mn((Cu, SI)(Bi, Sb)) 합금계는 Bi상, MnSb상, MnBi상, k-상, Heuser상, Mn2Sb 및 $\beta$-Mn상의 혼합상으로 이루어졌으며 x가 증가함에 따라 Bi상과 Mn2Sb상이 증가하고 K-상, Heusler상 및 $\beta$-Mn상이 줄어들거나 사라졌다. 자기적 성질은 자성을 띄는 MnSb상, MnBi상, Mn2Sb상, k-상 및 Hseusler상과 비자성인 Bi상과 $\beta$-Mn상의 상대적 분율에 의해 결정됨을 알 수 있었고, 150K-200K 부근에서 그 이하로 온도가 감소함에 따라 자화값이 급격히 감소하는 현상이 나타났다. Mn((Fe, AI)(Bi, Sb))합금계는 Bi상, MnSb상, MnBi상, MnBi상,$\beta$-Mn상, k-상 및 Mn2Sb상의 혼합상으로 나타났으며, 자기적 성질은 조사한 전 조성에서 강자성을 띄고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

월성1호기 압력관의 수소흡수 관련 자료들을 분석하였으며, 캐나다 발전소들의 결과와도 비교하였다. 압력관의 수소흡수 특성은 압력관내 위치, 사용온도, 가동이력 등에 영향을 받아 Inlet 쪽보다는 Outlet 쪽이, 사용온도가 높을수록, 또한 가동에 따른 조사량이 증가할수록 수소흡수량이 증가하였다. 한편 압력관내로의 수소흡수 거동을 규명하기 위해 Zr-2.5wt%Nb 합금의 열처리 조직 차이에 따른 수소흡수특성을 분석하였다. 수소흡수는$\alpha$-Zr 상에 비해 $\beta$-Zr, $\beta$-Nb 상에 크게 영향을 받는 것으로 보인다. 또한 합금내의 수소량 증가가 압력관 부식특성 자체에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위하여 열처리 시편에 일정량의 수소를 charging 시킨 후 부식시험을 수행하였다. Zr-2.5wt%Nb 합금의 부식거동은 미세조직에 가장 큰 영향을 받아$\alpha$-Zr과 $\beta$-Zr 상의 시편이$\alpha$-Zr과$\beta$-Nb 상의 시편에 비해 큰 부식속도를 보였다. 또한 시편내 150ppm 이하의 수소함량은 시편의 부식거동에 별다른 영향을 없거나, 부식속도를 약간 감소시키는 것으로 추정된다.

In this experiment the Iron phthalocyanine (FePc) films on Si-wafer and alumina pallet were prepared using vacuum sublimation with conditions of changing reaction time, temperature, and deposition rate. Then, some samples were annealed following annealing. Techniques such as XRD, SEM, and resistance measurement method, were dedicated to characterize the changes of surface structure, phase transformation and electric resistance sensitivity in accordance with change of film thickness. In proportion to the decrease of deposition temperature from $370^{\circ}C$ to $350^{\circ}C$, intensities of (200), (011), (211) and (114) planes of $\alpha$-phase were decreased and (100) plane of $\beta$-phase were appeared. The film thickness were controlled by regulating the volume of precursor material during rapid deposition. As a result, it was observed that crystalline particle size had been increased according to the increase of film thickness and $\alpha$-phase transformed to $\beta$-phase. In consequence of measuring the crystallinity of films annealed between $150^{\circ}C$ and $350^{\circ}C$, $\alpha$- to $\beta$-phase transformation was appeared to begin at $150^{\circ}C$ and completely transformed to $\beta$-phase at $350^{\circ}C$. Electric resistance sensitivity of FePc film to $NO_x$ gas along temperature change of FePc films was observed to be more stable with the decrease of the film thickness.

${\alpha}$-lactalbumin and ${\beta}$-lactoglobulin in whey proteins were separated by high performance membrane chromatography (HPMC). The separation mechanism involved anion-exchange, and the stationary phase was anion CIM (Convective Interaction Media) DEAE, QA disk and cation exchanger SO$_3$(16${\times}$3 mm). Two types of mobile phase were used, buffer A (20 mM Tris-HCI, pH 7.3) and buffer B(buffer A + 1 M NaCl), As the amount of NaCl dissolved in buffer linearly increased, which enabled a gradient elution mode. The optimum mobile phase and operating condition (Buffer A/Buffer B = 100/0 - 30/70 vol%, gradient time 1 min, 30/70 - 10/90 vol.%, gradient time 2 min) were experimentally determined. In this experimental condition, ${\alpha}$-lacta1bumin, ${\beta}$-lactoglobulin were separated within 5 min at a mobile phase flow rate of 4 mL/min.
