The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of chemical reaction with a bonding glass on physical and magnetic properties of Fe-Hf-N/SiO$_2$ and Fe-Hf-N/Cr/SiO$_2$ thin films. When the Fe-Hf-N/SiO$_2$ films were reacted with the bonding glass, the soft magnetic properties of them were extremely degraded. At $600^{\circ}C$, the saturation magnetization of the reacted film decreased to 1 kG, and its coercivity increased to 27 Oe, and its effective permeability decreased to 70. It was found that the degradation of soft magnetic properties of the Fe-Hf-N/SiO$_2$ films reacted with the bonding glass were attributed to the oxidation of the Fe-Hf-N layers to HfO$_2$ and Fe$_3$O$_4$. The soft magnetic properties of the Fe-Hf-N/Cr/SiO$_2$ films reacted with the bonding glass were degraded less than those of Fe-Hf-N/SiO$_2$ films. At $600^{\circ}C$, the saturation magnetization of the reacted film decreased to 13.5 kG, and its coercivity increased to 4 Oe, and its effective permeability decreased to 700. It was found that the Cr layer suppressed the oxidation of the Fe-Hf-N layers during the chemical reaction between the Fe-Hf-N layer and bonding glass.

$Fe_5Si_Xb_{5-x}$ (x=0, 1, 2, 3) powders were prepared by mechanical alloying, and their phases and magnetic properties were investigated by using XRD, TEM, Mossbauer spectroscopy and VSM. Starting elements are incorporated into $\alpha$-Fe in the early stage of mechanical alloying, and the stable phases are formed as the milling proceeds. After the annealing at 80$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours, it is found that the FeB and $Fe_2B$ phases coexist for the $Fe_5B_5$(x=0) composition. By substituting Si for B, the formation of $Fe_2B$ phase is restricted and the $Fe_5SiB_2$, $Fe_2Si_{0.4}B_{0.6}$ and paramagnetic phase begin to appear. The FeB phase has wide range of hyperfine magnetic field because it is not fully crystallized on the annealing at 800 $^{\circ}C$. On the contrary, others have good crystalline phases and show well-defined hyperfine magnetic field. Magnetic saturation is highest for the $Fe_5B_5$ composition where the amount of the $Fe_2B$ phase in large.

$TiO_2$ as a raw material for producing titanium can be produced by carbon reduction of natural ilmenite ores over 1823 K and acid leaching of the obtained titanium-rich slag. However, the conventional process can cause very high energy consumption and a large amount of leaching residues. In the present study, we proposed the sulfurization of $FeTiO_3$ with $Na_2SO_4$ at temperatures below 1573 K, which can separate Fe in $FeTiO_3$ as the FeS based sulfide phase and Ti as the $TiO_2-Na_2O$ based oxide phase. This study is a fundamental study for sulfurization of $FeTiO_3$ to investigate the influence of reducing atmosphere, reaction temperature and the sulfur/Fe ratio on the separability and distribution behaviors of of Fe, Ti, and Na between the oxide phase and the sulfurized phase. At 1573 K and carbon saturation condition, the Fe can be separated from $FeTiO_3$ as Fe-C-S metal and a part of FeS, and the concentration of Fe in oxide decreased to 4 mass% after sulfurization.

For me1t-spun Fe-Nd-C alloys, variation of phase development and magnetic properties with the variety of alloy compositions and production conditions were investigated. To find out whether hard magnetic $Fe_{14}Nd_2C$ is crystallized direct1y from the melt by rapid quenching, the phase development of the as-spun ribbons spun at various speed was a1so studied. For the ribbons spun at 10m/s, ${\alpha}-Fe$ was the primary crystallization phase followed by the secondary $Fe_{17}Nd_2C$. At 20m/s ${\alpha}-Fe$ was suppressed so that the primary $Fe_{17}Nd_2C$ coexisted with the secondary ${\alpha}-Fe$ and the amorphous phase. Above 30m/s the ribbons were a1most amorphous, and the amorphization was complete at 40m/s. $Fe_{14}Nd_2C$ therefore was not found in as-spun state but obtained after heat treating the ribbons. The effective temperature range ($700{\sim}900^{\circ}C$) in which $Fe_{14}Nd_2C$ can be obtained was wider than that of a cast alloy. An alloy made with the wheel speed of 20 or 30m/s yielded higher coercivities after heat treatment. In iron-rich Fe-Nd-C, the composition range in which a high coercivity (more than 10kOe) is expected is narrow, i.e., 77~78 Fe and 7~8 C(at.%).

Electronic and magnetic properties of the novel rare-earth permanent magnet, $Sm_{2}Fe_{17}N_{3}$, are investigated by performing self-consistent local density functional electronic structure calculations. Employing the LMTO(Linearized Muffin-Tin Orbital) band method, we have obtained the electronic band structures for both paramag-netic and ferromagnetic phases of $Sm_{2}Fe_{17}N_{3}$. Based on the energy band structures, we have studied bonding ef-fects among Sm, Fe, and N atom as well as electronic and magnetic structures. It is found that the N atom sub-stantially reduces the magnetic moment of neighboring Fe atoms through the hybridization interaction and also plays a role in stabilizing the structure. the average magnetic moment of Fe atoms in the ferromagnetic phase of $Sm_{2}Fe_{17}N_{3}$ is estimated to be $2.33{\mu}_B$, which is ~8% larger than the magnetic moment of $Sm_{2}Fe_{17}$, $2.16{\mu}_B$. The Fe I (c) atom, which is located farthest from the N atom and surrounded by 12 Fe nearest neighbors, has the largest magnetic moment ($2.65{\mu}_B$), while the Fe III (f), whose hybridization interaction with N atom is very strong, has the smallest magnetic moment($1.96{\mu}_B$).

The properties of Fe ions in the $ CdFe_2$$O_4$ and $CdFeAlO_4$ were investigated using the Mossbauer spectroscopy, in the temperature range from 300K to 900K. The calculated Debye temperature, recoil free fraction, mean square displacement and velocity are, 476.5K, 0.835, 3.39$\times$10\ulcorner$\textrm{cm}^2$, and 1.11$\times$10\ulcorner$\textrm{cm}^2$sec$^2$for Fe ions in the $CdFe_2$$O_4$ and 369.0K, 0.741, 5.65$\times$10\ulcorner$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 1.33$\times$10\ulcorner$\textrm{cm}^2$/$sec^2$in the $CeFeAlO_4$. The difference of the properties in the two samples were explained by the variation of the Fe\ulcorner-O\ulcorner bonding length with the substituted Al ions.

Postabsorptive serum iron level was determined after oral administration of the compounds to human. In serum and whole blood, $Fe^{3+}$ was measured by ion chromatography (IC) using a pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (PDCA) as an eluent. The serum sample solutions were pretreated with I N HCI and 50% TCA. The whole blood sample solutions were treated with 3 N HCI for 30 min at $125^{\circ}C$. The limit of detection (LOD) of the IC technique is $0.2 {\mu}M$ for$Fe^{2+}$and 0.1 $\mu$M for $Fe^{3+}$. The area under concentration (AUC) can be obtained by the above analytical condition. In addition, to compare the stability of $Fe^{2+}$ to that of $Fe^{3+}$ in pharamaceutical preparations, accelerated stability test was carried out. After storing the samples under $40^{\circ}C$, 75%RH in light-resistant container for various time intervals, the contents of iron of different valencies were determined separately by the IC technique and the change and/or the interchange of among those iron species in preparations was investigated. Iron raw materials are stable, but $Fe^{2+}$ in$Fe^{3+}$ source materials was slightly converted to $Fe^{3+}$ by oxidation. $Fe^{2+}$ in$Fe^{3+}$ source raw materials and $Fe^{3+}$ in $Fe^{2+}$ raw materials are determined as impurities. Therefore, IC technique is found to be an appropriate method for comparative evaluation of dissimilar bioavailability of $Fe^{2+}$ and $Fe^{3+}$, stability of $Fe^{2+}$ and $Fe^{3+}$ raw materials and preparations.

FeOOH/$TiO_2$, a heterojunction structure between FeOOH and $TiO_2$, was prepared by covering the surface of the $\sim$100-nm-sized FeOOH particles with Degussa P25 by applying maleic acid as an organic linker. Under visible light irradiation (${\lambda}{\geq}$ 420 nm), FeOOH/$TiO_2$ showed a notable photocatalytic activity in removal of gaseous 2-propanol and evolution of $CO_2$. It was found that FeOOH reveals a profound absorption in the spectral range of 400 - 550 nm, and its valence band (VB) level is located relatively lower than that of $TiO_2$. The considerable photocatalytic efficiency of the FeOOH/$TiO_2$ under visible light irradiation was therefore deduced to be caused by the hole transfer between the VB of FeOOH and $TiO_2$.

The effects of H₂O and residue SO₂ in flue gases on the activity of the Fe/zeolite catalysts for low-temperature NH₃-SCR of NO were investigated. And the addition effect of Mn, Zr and Ce to Fe/zeolite for low-temperature NH₃-SCR of NO in the presence of H₂O and SO₂ was investigated. Fe/zeolite catalysts were prepared by liquid ion exchange and promoted Fe/zeolite catatysts were prepared by liquid ion exchange and doping of Mn, Zr and Ce by incipient wetness impregnation. Zeolite NH₄-BEA and NH₄-ZSM-5 were used to adapt the SCR technology for mobile diesel engines. The catalysts were characterized by BET, X-ray diffraction (XRD), SEM/EDS, TEM/EDS. The NO conversion at 200 ℃ over Fe/BEA decreased from 77% to 47% owing to the presence of 5% H₂O and 100 ppm SO₂ in the flue gas. The Mn promoted MnFe/BEA catalyst exhibited NO conversion higher than 53% at 200 ℃ and superior to that of Fe/BEA in the presence of H₂O and SO₂. The addition of Mn increased the Fe dispersion and prevented Fe aggregation. The promoting effect of Mn was higher than Zr and Ce. Fe/BEA catalyst exhibited good activity in comparison with Fe/ZSM-5 catalyst at low temperature below 250 ℃.

Magneto resistance properties in spin-valve sandwiches with various thickness of nanmagnetic layer in contact with the ferromagnetic NiFe film were investigated. The NiFe layer in contact with the NiO film was pinned by strongly exchange-biased coupling and the free NiFe layer at the film surface induced a sharp change in the magnetoresistance at -5~15Oe due to small coercivity. The NiO/NiFe/Cu/NiFe film showed a magnetoresistance ratio in the range of 2.3~2.9% and a field sensitivity above 2.2%/Oe with various of nonmagnetic layer. The NiO/NiFe/Cu/NiFe film of the field sensitivity above 2.2%/Oe suggests stang possibility of magnetic sensor matter.
