FT-IR and thermography were used to investigate the infrared radiation characteristic of SiO$_2$ film and SiO$_2$/Fe$_2$O$_3$film coated on aluminum. Through FT-TR spectrum, SiO$_2$film showed high infrared absorption in accordance with the stretching vibration of Si-O-Si, and as$ Fe_2$$O_3$was mixed additional absorption band appeared resulting from the stretching vibration of Fe-O at $590cm^{-1}$ and the bond of Si-O-Fe at $900 cm^{-1}$ The two kinds of film measured by the integration method and the reflective method coincided with each other in the wavelength area of infrared absorption and radiation, and corresponded well with Kirchhoff's law as the infrared emissivity is high in wavelength where infrared absorption rate is high. The emissivity of $SiO_2$ film was 0.65 and that of $SiO_2$/Fe$_2$$O_3$film was 0.77, so the addition of$ Fe_2$$O_3$ raised the infrared emissivity by approximately 13%.$ SiO_2$$Fe_2$$O_3$ film is efficient as an infrared radiator at below $100^{\circ}C$. The temperature of heat radiation after 7 minutes was 117$^{\circ}C$ in aluminum plate and $155^{\circ}C$ in $SiO_2$$Fe_2$$O_3$ film, $38^{\circ}C$ higher than the former.

High Temperature wear behavior of plasma sprayed zirconia coatings containing up to 10 mol% of Fe$_2$O$_3$ were investigated. The wear test results showed that the addition of Fe$_2$O$_3$ particles to zirconia improved the wear resistance and lowered the coefficient of friction. Optimum concentration of Fe$_2$O$_3$ was about 5 mol%. Similar degradation behavior was observed at about 40$0^{\circ}C$ for both zirconia and Fe$_2$O$_3$ added zirconia coatings. The results indicated that stabilization of tetragonal phase and changes in mechanical properties such as hardness and toughness were responsible for tribological behavior of plasma sprayed zirconia contain Fe$_2$O$_3$.

Effects of V substitution of Fe on the magnetic properties of $Fe_3O_4$ have been investigated by x-ray diffraction (XRD), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), conversion electron Mossbauer spectroscopy (CEMS), and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) measurements on sol-gel-grown films. XRD data indicates that the $V_xFe_{3-x}O_4$ films maintain cubic structure up to x=1.0 with little change of the lattice constant. Analyses on V 2p and Fe 2p levels of the XPS data indicate that V exist as $V^{3+}$ mostly in the $V_xFe_{3-x}O_4$ films with the density of $V^{2+}$ ions increasing with increasing V content. Analyses on the CEMS data indicate that $V^{3+}$ ions substitute tetrahedral $Fe^{3+}$ sites mostly, while $V^{2+}$ ions octahedral $Fe^{2+}$ sites. Results of room-temperature VSM measurements on the films reveal that the saturation magnetization for the x=0.14 sample is larger than that of $Fe_3O_4$, while it becomes smaller than that of $Fe_3O_4$ for $x{\geq}0.5$. The coercivity of the $V_xFe_{3-x}O_4$ films is found to increase with x, attributed to the increase of anisotropy by the substitution of $V^{2+}(d^3)$ ions into the octahedral sites.

To study the effects of chemical composition on the fusion temperatures of coal ashes, the chemical composition, mineral matter, and fusion temperature were studied with 54 kinds of coal ash samples including Korean anthracite coals. CaO, MgO and $Fe_2O_3$ were observed to be major fluxing elements in reducing and oxidizing atmosphere. The fluxing effect of $Fe_2O_3$ was increased more in reducing atmosphere. In a base/acid ratio, the fusion temperature decreased with increasing amounts of basic components. Nevertheless, the correlation between a fusion temperature and base/acid ratio was not shown well in a higher ratio of $Fe_2O_3/CaO$. The differences of fusion temperatures between oxidizing and reducing atmosphere showed close relationship with $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$ ratio rather than with $Fe_2O_3$ contents. Multiple regression was used to predict the fusion temperature of coal ashes, and it was established that the major predictors in oxidizing atmosphere were Base/Acid, $Fe_2O_3/CaO$, $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$, and $(SiO_2/A1_2O_3){\cdot}(Base/Acid)$ and Base/Acid, $Fe_2O_3/CaO$, $SiO_2$, and $TiO_2$ were major ones in reducing atmosphere.

The $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$ gas sensor, prepared by the precipitation of Fe(OH)$_3$ from a solution of iron(III) sulfate and tin (IV) chloride, was composed of fine particles and was superior in sensitivity to other $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$. The gas sensitivity was found to depend on the amounts of remaining sulfate ion the microstructure and a small amount of iron(II) species generated through the reduction of $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$. The sensing mechanism of $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$gas sensor was confirmed to be due to the reduction of $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$ to the low resistive Fe$_3$-xO$_4$ by combustible gas and to depend on the crystral structure.

A $Fe_3O_4$-graphite nanofiber composite for use as an anode material was successfully synthesized by calcining $Fe_3O_4$ and graphite nanofiber (GNF) together in a $N_2$ atmosphere. Using this $Fe_3O_4$-GNF composite in a lithium ion battery resulted in a higher lithium storage capacity than that obtained using $Fe_3O_4$-graphite ($Fe_3O_4$-G). The $Fe_3O_4$-GNF (10 wt%) electrode exhibited a higher lithium ion diffusion coefficient ($2.29{\times}10^{-9}cm^2s^{-1}$) than did the $Fe_3O_4$-G (10%) ($3.17{\times}10^{-10}cm^2s^{-1}$). At a current density of $100mA\;g^{-1}$, the $Fe_3O_4$-GNF (10 wt%) anode showed a higher reversible capacity ($1,031mAh\;g^{-1}$) than did the $Fe_3O_4$-G (10%) anode ($799mAh\;g^{-1}$). Moreover, the $Fe_3O_4GNF$ electrodes showed good cycling performance without the addition of a conductive material.

The material properties of $SnO_2$ were investigated as a function of the amount of $Fe_2O_3$, the partial pressure of oxygen, the concentration of CO gas, and temperature. $Fe_2O_3$-doped $SnO_2$ thick films were prepared by the screen printing technique on alumina substrate. The specimens sintered at $700^{\circ}C$ for 6 hours showed little difference of the grain size and narrow distribution with the content of $Fe_2O_3$. The electrical conductance of undoped $SnO_2$ is high at low firing temperature and at low partial pressure of oxygen. The electrical conductance of $Fe_2O_3-$-doped $SnO_2$ is increased with measurement temperature, but decreased with the content of $Fe_2O_3$. The dependence of oxygen partial pressure is decreased with dopant addition. The highest sensitivity and the good properties of response speed and repeatability for CO gas were observed on the specimen with 0.1 mol% $Fe_2O_3$ at $350^{\circ}C$.

Ultrafine iron oxide powder, {{{{ gamma }}-Fe2O3 and $\alpha$-Fe2O3, were prepared by the thermal decomposition of organometallic compounds. The formation process of powder includes the thermal decomposition and oxidation of the organometallic precursors, Fe(N2H3COO)2(N2H4)2 (A) and N2H5Fe(N2H3COO)3.H2O (B). The organometallic precursors, A and B, were synthesized by the reaction of ferrous ion with hydrazinocarboxylic acid, and characterized by quantitative analysis and infrared spectroscopy. The mechanistic study for the thermal decomposition was performed by DAT-TG. The iron oxide powder was obtained by the heat treatment of the precursors at 20$0^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$ for half an hour in air. The phases of the resulting product were proved {{{{ gamma }}-Fe2O3 and $\alpha$-Fe2O3 respectively. The particle shape was equiaxial and the particle size was less than 0.1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Magnetic properties of the {{{{ gamma }}-Fe2O3 powder obtained from A and B was 234 Oe of coercivity, 64.26 emu/g of saturation magnetization, 23.59 emu/g of remanent magnetization and 24.1 Oe, 47.27 emu/g, 3.118 emu/g respectively. The value of $\alpha$-Fe2O3 powder was 1.494 Oe, 0.4862 emu/g, 0.1832 emu/g and 1,276 Oe, 0.4854 emu/g, 0.1856 emu/g respectively.

M type hexa-ferrites were prepared by means of a solid state reaction using mill scale, $Fe_{2}O_{3}$, and the mixture of mill scale and $Fe_{2}O_{3}$. The mixture of powders were calcined at $1150^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs. and sintered at $1250^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs, with varing the mole ratio of $Fe_{2}O_{3}$/$BaCO_{3}$, by 5.2~6.0. And the magnetic properties and morphologies of Baferrites with impurities such as $SiO_{2},\;Al_{2}O_{3},\;MgO,\;CaO\;and\;Na_{2}O$ in the mill scale were investigated. The magnetic properties were worsened by the addition of $Na_{2}O because of non-reacted iron oxide and intermediate compound of $BaFe_{2}O_{4}$ but they were improved apparently by the addition of $Si_{2}$ and $Al_{2}O_{3}$ in the composition of $BaO.5.6Fe_{2}O_{3}$. Moreover, $M_{s}$ decreased but $_{B}H_{C}$ increased through the addition of $Al_{2}O_{3}$ in Ba-ferrite. ${(BH)}_{max}$ of sintered BM($BaCO_{3}$, mill scale mixture) and BFM($BaCO_{3}$, $Fe_{2}O_{3}$, and null scale mixture) were 0.86 and 1.04 MGOe, respectively, and the magnetic properties were changed around $440^{\circ}C$.
