From isothermal and cyclic oxidation tests on thermomechanically treated Ti-5%Al, Ti47%Al-4%Cr, and Ti-48%Al-2%Cr-2%Nb alloys at 800, 900, 1000℃ in air, it was found that Ti-48%Al-2%Cr-2%Nb and Ti-47%Al-4%Cr had the best and the worst oxidation resistance, respectively. The oxide scales consisted primarily of TiO₂and Al₂O₃, with and without a small amount of dissolved Cr and 7b ions, depending on the alloy composition. These ions were slightly enriched inside the inner oxide layer, and strongly enriched around the scale-matrix interface. The outer TiO₂-rich layer was formed by the outward diffusion of Ti ions, while the inner (TiO₂+A1₂O₃,) mixed layer was formed by the inward transport of oxygen. The outward movement of Al ions farmed the intermediate Al₂O₃-rich Iayer, above talc prepared alloys.

The chemical composition and the semiconducting properties of the passive films formed on Alloy 690 in various film formation conditions were investigated by XPS, photocurrent measurement, and Mott-Schottky analysis. The XPS and photocurrent spectra showed that the passive films formed on Alloy 690 in pH 8.5 buffer solution at ambient temperature, in air at $400^{\circ}C$, and in PWR condition comprise $Cr_2O_3$, $Cr(OH)_3$, ${\gamma}-Fe_2O_3$, NiO, and $Ni(OH)_2$. The thermally grown oxide in air and the passive film formed at high potential (0.3 $V_{SCE}$) in pH 8.5 buffer solution were highly Cr-enriched, whereas the films formed in PWR condition and that formed at low potential (-0.3 $V_{SCE}$) in pH 8.5 buffer solution showed relatively high Ni content and low Cr content. The Mott-Schottky plots exhibited n-type semiconductivity, inferring that the semiconducting properties of the passive films formed on Alloy 690 in various film formation conditions are dominated by Cr-substituted ${\gamma}-Fe_2O_3$. The donor density, i.e., concentration of oxygen vacancy, was measured to be $1.2{\times}10^{21}{\sim}4.6{\times}10^{21}cm^{-3}$ and lowered with increase in the Cr content in the passive film.

This study was carried out the simultaneous removal or organics and Cr(VI) in aqueous suspensions of phtocatalyst under circular type reactor and UV light illumination. In this experiment, comparison on the removal of Cr(VI) by photoreduction using UV light, photocatalyst adsorption using TiO2, ZnO, and FeCl3 as photocatalyst, and phtocatalysis using UV light with photocatalysts as well as the effect of experimental parameters such as phtocatalyst dosage, a kinds of organics and their concentration was examined. The major results of this study were as follows; 1. It was found that photocatalyst adsorption and phtocatalysis were applicable to the removal of Cr(VI), and Cr(VI) was more effectively eliminated by TiO2 than ZnO, and FeCl3. 2. phtocatalytic removal efficiency of Cr (VI) increased with increasing phtocatalyst dosage. However, over 1.0g/l of phtocatalyst dosage, the efficiency reached a plateau. 3. phtocatalytic removal of Cr(VI) was enhanced by addition of organics such as salicylic acid, mandelic acid, EDTA, and citric acid, and phtocatalytic oxidation of organics were also observed. 4. It was found that the simultaneous removal of organics and Cr(VI) using phtocatalysis was possible.

Although the ferrous material was separated by the magnetic separation before the incineration process, the municipal solid waste incineration bottom ash generated during incinerator in metropolitan area consists of many iron products which account for about $3{\sim}11%$ as well as ceramics and glasses. The formation of $NiFe_2O_4$ and $FeCr_2O_4$ with a $Fe_3O_4-Fe_2O_3$ (similar to pure Fe) on the surface of iron product was found during air-annealing in the incinerator at $1000^{\circ}C$, because Ni and Cr has a chemical attraction about iron is using to coat with Ni and Cr metals for poish or to prevent corrosion. Therefore, Fe-Ni Cr oxide can be formed on durface of the iron product and it can be separated from bottom ash through the magnetic separation. So, in this study, the separation ratio of heavy metals as magnetic separation and mineralogical formation of Fe-ion(heavy metal) in ferrous metals corroded were investigated. As the result, the separation ratio of Ni and Cr based on particle sizes accounted for about $45{\sim}50%$, and Cu and Pb accounted for below 20%. Also, the leaching concentration of Ni and Cr in bottom ash separated by magnetic separation was lower than that in fresh bottom ash.

This paper is studies the effects of additives on the magnetic properties of Sr-ferrite. The specimens have been composed of SrO and Fe$_2$O$_3$with ratio of 1:5.9. As 1st additives, it is mixed to 0.2wt%, 0.7wt% and 1wt% of CaCo$_3$with 0.3wt% SiO$_2$. As 2nd addition, it is mixed to 0.5wt%, 1wt% of Na$_2$SiO$_3$, 0.5wt%, 1wt% of Cr$_2$O$_3$and 0.5wt%, 1wt% of Al$_2$O$_3$and sintering conditions was carried out at 1210$^{\circ}C$, 1230$^{\circ}C$ and 1250$^{\circ}C$. From experiments on the magnetic properties of specimen, the results were shown follows; (1) In case of additive SiO$_2$and CaO, it is stable magnetoplumbite structure for liquid phase grown, enhances mignetic propertics. (2) In case of basic compositions + 0.5wt% Al$_2$O$_3$, it is confirmed better properties by increasing of the coercivity than 0.5wt% Cr$_2$O$_3$additives. (3) In case of mixed additives of Cr$_2$O$_3$and Al$_2$O$_3$, magnetic propeties decrease with sintering density.

Thin CrAlMgSiN films, whose composition were 30.6Cr-11.1Al-7.3Mg-1.2Si-49.8N (at.%), were deposited on steel substrates in a cathodic arc plasma deposition system. They consisted of alternating crystalline Cr-N and AlMgSiN nanolayers. After oxidation at $800^{\circ}C$ for 200 h in air, a thin oxide layer formed by outward diffusion of Cr, Mg, Al, Fe, and N, and inward diffusion of O ions. Silicon ions were relatively immobile at $800^{\circ}C$. After oxidation at $900^{\circ}C$ for 10 h in air, a thin $Cr_2O_3$ layer containing dissolved ions of Al, Mg, Si, and Fe formed. Silicon ions became mobile at $900^{\circ}C$. After oxidation at $900^{\circ}C$ for 50 h in air, a thin $SiO_2-rich$ layer formed underneath the thin $Cr_2O_3$ layer. The film displayed good oxidation resistance. The main factor that decreased the oxidation resistance of the film was the outward diffusion and subsequent oxidation of Fe at the sample surface, particularly along the coated sample edge.

Gas sensing materials for detecting inflammable gas such as alcohol, propane, acetic acid, carbon monoxide, hydrogen were developed by utiliting $MgO-Cr_2O_3-TiO_2$ system. Between 30$0^{\circ}C$ and 50$0^{\circ}C$, reversible chemisorption becomes dominant and the electrical canduction of P-type semiconductive with the gas chemisorption. The ceramic sensor exhibits a high sensitivity to particular reducing gas such as alcohol, whereas propane and butane have little effect on the resistivity. The time response of adsorption is estimated to be about 20 sec. On the other hand, the desorption process, which corresponds to oxidation due to oxygen adsorption, take more than 60 sec. Thus the ceramic sensor can be used as a alcohol sensor in an ambient aunosphere. As the oxygen concentration is increased from 0.1 to 10 precent($10^3-10^6ppm$), the resistance decreases rapidly but stabilizes at higher concentration.

Cr-CrO cermet solar selective coatings with a double cermets layer film structure were prepared using a special direct current (dc) magnetron sputtering technology. The typical films structures from surface to bottom substrate were measured to be an $Al_2O_3$ anti-reflection layer on a double Cr-CrO cermet layer on an Al metal infrared reflection layer. Optical properties of optimized Cr-CrO cermet solar selective coating were absorptance (${\alpha}$) = 0.95 and emittance (${\varepsilon}$) = 0.10 ($100^{\circ}C$). Atomic force microscopy (AFM) image showed that Cr-CrO cermet film was very smooth and their grain size was also very small The results of thermal stability test showed that the Cr-CrO cermet solar selective coatings were stable for use at temperature of $400^{\circ}C$.
