The effects of boron or manganese added as $B_4C$, Mn, $TiB_2$, B on TiC-30vo1.%$Ni_3Al$ cermet sintered at 1380 and $1400^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour, were examined in relation with shrinkage, relative density, microstructure, lattice parameter, hardness and fracture toughness ($K_{IC}$). The results are summarized as follows: 1) The highest shrink-age showed about 30.5% in the specimen added B$_4$C and the maximum relative density was about 99% in the specimen added $TiB_2$; 2) The grains of TiC were grown during sintering and made the surrounding structure by adding boron and manganese. The largest grain size showed about $2.8\mutextrm{m}$ in the specimen with boron sintered at $1400^{\circ}C$;3) The lattice parameter of TiC was about $4.325\AA$ and $Ni_3Al$ about $3.592\AA$ by adding other elements; 4) The highest hardness was about $1100kgf/\textrm{mm}^2$ in the specimen with B4C; 5) The fracture toughness ($K_{IC}$) showed about $15MNm^{-3/2}$ in the specimen added $TiB_2$.

The h-BN powder was synthesized by amorphous $B_2O_3$ and activated carbon at $1550^{\circ}C$ in nitrogen atmosphere, whose properties were examined according to $MgB_6$ addition. Amount of $MgB_6$ addition was varied in the range of $0{\sim}$10\;wt% of the initial mixture. It was observed that $MgB_6$ addition led to an increase in the amount and the grain size of h-BN and decrease in the amount of $B_4C$ forming. When $MgB_6$ added 5 wt%, the amount and crystallinity of h-BN increased as the holding time at the synthesis temperature was prolonged. It was also confirmed that the regularity of three-dimensional ordering of h-BN increases.

To investigate the grain refining mechanism of Al by the addition of Ti-B, the unidirectional solidifications of 99.9%Al and 99.7%Al were performed under the condition of varing the pouring temperature. The solidification modes of Al were studied by the cooling curve analyses, metallographic and microprobe examinations. The results were as follows: 1) Grains were most refined with an addition of 0.15wt.%Ti-0.021wt.%B but the grain size with 0.2wt.%Ti-0.028wt.%B was increased. 2) The grain size of 99.7wt.%Al was even more refined than that of 99.9wt.%Al with the same amount of Ti-B. 3) As the pouring temperature increased, the grain size of pure Al and an alloy with 0.lwt.%Ti-0.014wt.%B was increased. However, an alloy with 0.2wt.%Ti-0.028wt.%B did not show any effects of temperature. 4) TiC(Al-Ti) and (Al-Ti-C) were identified as nucleants for Al.

The sub micron sized spherical $MgB_2$ powders were synthesized by spray reaction method. $MgB_2$ tapes with Al addition were fabricated by Powder in Tube (PIT) method. The superconducting property and microstructure of Al doped $MgB_2$ tapes were characterized by X-ray diffraction, optical microscopy and transport measurement under magnetic field. The $J_c$ value of $MgB_2$ tapes was increased with 10 vol. % Al addition. The $J_c$ value of 5,500 A/$cm^2$ and 11,000 A/$cm^2$ at 4.2 K and 5 T were obtained for the $MgB_2$ tape and 10 vol. % of Al added $MgB_2$ tape without heat treatment, respectively. The $J_c$ value of 8,000 A/$cm^2$ and 33,000 A/$cm^2$ at 4.2 K and 5 T were obtained for the $MgB_2$ tape and 10 vol. % of Al added $MgB_2$ tape with heat treatment, respectively. The $J_c$-B curves show enhancement in $J_c$ (B), which suggests that the microstructure and transport properties of $MgB_2$ tapes have been improved with Al addition.

Examined in this paper, is the effect of B$_{4}$C addition on the frictional characteristics of Cu-Sn based sintered friction materials. For the specimens 1wt%, 2wt% and 4wt% of B$_{4}$C were added into the reference material. A pin-on-disk type friction tester was used to,measure the friction torque with respect to the surface temperature and sliding distance. Wear mechanism of each specimen is analyzed in the view point of the oxide film formation. The specimen containing 4wt% of B$_{4}$C showed stable friction and low wear since the oxide film was sustained up to higher surface temperature ranges.

The influences of Gallium doping on the magnetic microstructures and corrosion behaviors of Nd-Fe-B-Ti-C alloys are investigated. The cooling rate for obtaining fully amorphous structure is raised, and the glassforming ability is improved by the Ga addition. The High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy image shows that the ${\alpha}$-Fe and $Fe_3B$ soft magnetic phases become granular surrounded by the $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ hard magnetic phase. The rms and $({\Delta}{\varphi})_{rms}$ value of Nd-Fe-B-Ti-C nanocomposite alloy thick ribbons in the typical topographic and magnetic force images detected by Magnetic Force Microscopy(MFM) decreases with 0.5 at% Ga addition. The corrosion resistances of $Nd_9Fe_{73}B_{12.6}C_{1.4}Ti_{4-x}Ga_x$ (x = 0, 0.5, 1) alloys are enhanced by the Ga addition. It can be attributed to the formation of more amorphous phases in the Ga doped samples.

The stainless steel sheathed MgB$_2$ tapes with Cu addition were fabricated by PIT method without heat treatment. The $J_{c}$ value of 5,600 A/ $cm^{2}$and 16,000 A/$cm^{2}$ at 4.2 K and 5 T were obtained for the $MgB_{2}$ tape and 10 vol % of Cu added $MgB_{2}$ tape respectively. The $J_{c}$-B curve shows enhancement in J$_{c}$ under magnetic field, which suggests enhancement in flux pinning property with Cu addition.n.

The characteristics and quality of Yakju with addition of ginseng powder originated in Choongchungdo were evaluated. At result, pH was decreased at the beginning stage of two stages fermentation and then slowly increased. Total acidity were increased in the cases of all (A), (B) and (C) during the fermentation. (A) group used Nuruk, crude enzyme and powder yeast showed the highest pH of 7.08 and total acidity of 0.84 at the 4th day of fermentation. The alcohol contents of B(21.0%) and C(20.4%) used cultured yeast were higher than A(19.0%) used powder yeast at the 4th day of fermentation. Also, inhibition against alcohol fermentation by ginseng powder wasn't showed and amino nitrogen contents were higher in (A) and (C) with addition of crude enzyme. Free sugar were the highest in (A) used both Nuruk and crude enzyme such as glucose of 599.16, maltose of 129.11mg%. Free amino acids were much more in A(580.02mg%) than in B(527.48mg%) and C(538.74mg%). from the sensory evaluation, desirable color and flavor qulity for 40 ages was (A) and (B) which was used Nuruk, and that for 20 ages was (C) which was used crude enzyme. However the best taste and overall preference was (B) for 20 and 40 ages of all. Therefore to produce high quality Yauju and commercialize, studies of fermentation process in Yakju should proceed later.
