$SrTiO_3$powders were synthesized from the chloride and the nitrate aqueous solution by spray pyrolysis method using ultrasonic vibrator. The concentration of mother solution was prepared 0.05M and O.lM. The carrier gas flow rate was 0.5cm/sec and 1.5cm/sec, respectively. The formation processing was investigated in the 0.05M and 0.05cm/sec. The $SrTiO_3$powders could not be synthesized from chloride aqueous solution. The prepared powders from nitrate aqueous solution was SrTi03 with cubic structure and nearly sphere particle for all samples. Mean particle size was increased from $0.49{\mu}m$ to $0.67{\mu}m$ by changing the carrier gas flow rate from O.5cm/sec to 1.5cm/sec. Also, mean particle size increased from $0.49{\mu}m$to $0.55{\mu}m$by changing the concentration of mother solution from O.05M to O.1M. Atomizing droplet size was $14.3{\mu}m$. The shape of particles was very porous by evaporation of solvent at the initial step. But through the each step upwards, shape of particles was formed themselves into a nearly roundish.

The study of the $Na_3YSi_3O_9$ structure, by x-ray diffraction and infrared spectrum, showed that $Na_3YSi_3O_9$ is similar to $Na_4CaSi_3O_9$ except for its being pseudo-cubic instead of cubic. The peaks in the x-ray diffraction pattern of $Na_3YSi_3O_9$ could therefore be indexed on the basis of the $Na_4CaSi_3O_9$ cell. Also, modified $Na_3MSi_3O_9$ (M = Lu, Yb, Tm, Er, Y, Ho, Dy, Gd, Eu, and Sm) type compounds were synthesized by introducing excess sodium, decreasing M(III) concentration, and substituting small amount of phosphorus for silicon. The unit cell parameters of the composition $Na_{3.2}M_{0.7}Si_{2.9}P_{0.1}O_{8.7}$ were estimated from x-ray powder diffraction patterns using the Cohen method.

Aqueous solutions of metallic salts, ZrO(NO3)2.2H2O and Y(NO3)3.5H2O were used as raw materials to synthesize crystalline submicron spherical powders of Zr0.94Y0.06O1.97 with tetragonal crystal phase. Each aqueous solution was mixed on the magnetic stirrer to homogenize for 12 hours. The concentration of the mixed solutionwas changed from 0.01mol/$\ell$ to 0.1mol/$\ell$ calculated as the concentration of Zr0.94Y0.06O1.97. Ultrafine droplets of starting mixed solution were sprayed by the ultrasonic vibrator and carried into the furnace kept at 55$0^{\circ}C$, $650^{\circ}C$, 75$0^{\circ}C$ and 85$0^{\circ}C$ using carrier gas of air (10$\ell$/min) and pyrolysed to form Y-TZP fine powders. The results of this exeriment were as follows. 1) Synthesized powders were nonagglomerated and spherical type. 2) Particle size distribution was narrow between 0.1${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and 1${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. 3) Forming reaction Y-TZP was finished above synthetic temperature 75$0^{\circ}C$. 4) As the synthetic temperature rised from 55$0^{\circ}C$ to 85$0^{\circ}C$, the mean particle size decreased from 0.35${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ to 0.22${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in the concentration of starting solution with 0.02mol/$\ell$. 5) At 75$0^{\circ}C$ of synthetic temperature, the concentration changes of starting solution from 0.01mol/$\ell$ to 0.1mol/$\ell$ increased the mean particle size from 0.24${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ to 0.38${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. 6) Chemical compositions of each synthesized particle were homogeneous nearly.

Photocatalytic oxidation conditions of reactant recirculation flow rate 275 mL/min, aeration rate 2 LPM and $UV+TiO_2+H_2O_2$(500 mg/L) proved to be appropriate for water including organic materials treatment. With increasing turbidity and suspended solids concentration, at turbidity 10 NTU-suspended solids concentration 29 mg/L the phenol degradation efficiency increased, which in turn decreased at turbidity 50 NTU-suspended solids concentration 170 mg/L, however no significant differences were observed, demonstrating similar results with those obtained at zero turbidity and suspended solids concentration. The degradation efficiency of phenol decreased with increasing influent phenol concentrations. The $UV+TiO_2+H_2O_2$ photocatalytic advanced oxidation process conducted is considered to be possibly applied to the drinking water treatment, and the post-treatment process of biological wastewater treatment.

This research investigated the characteristics of NO and $NO_2$ concentration at roadside (Choryangdong) and residential (Sujeongdong) locations in Busan. The NO concentration at roadside and residential were 34.7 and 8.0 ppb, respectively, and $NO_2$ at roadside and residential were 31.6 and $18.0ppb\;{\mu}g/m^3$, respectively. The NO concentration was the highest in winter at roadside at 37.1 ppb, followed by 35.0 ppb and 34.0 ppb in summer and fall, respectively. $NO_2$ concentration was the highest in spring at roadside at 39.6 ppb, followed by 30.4 ppb and 28.3 ppb in fall and winter, respectively. Number of exceedances per year of 1 hr limit value (0.10 ppm) for $NO_2$ at roadside and residential were 3,585 and 3 hours, respectively. Number of exceedances per year of 24 hr limit value (0.06 ppm) for $NO_2$ at roadside and residential were 32 and 1 days, respectively. Number of exceedances per year of 1 hr limit value (0.1 ppm) for $O_3$ at roadside and residential were 1 and 14 days, respectively. These results indicated that understanding the relationship between roadside and residential could provide insight into establishing a strategy to control urban air quality.

$Gd_2O_3:Eu/Bi$ nanoparticles were synthesized via spray pyrolysis and applied for the preparation of a luminescent pearl pigment as an anti-counterfeiting material. The luminescence properties were optimized by changing the $Eu^{3+}$ and $Bi^{3+}$ concentration. Ethylene glycol was used as an organic additive to prepare the $Gd_2O_3:Eu/Bi$ nanoparticles. The highest emission intensity was achieved when the total dopant content was 10.0 at.% and the mole fraction of Bi was 0.1. The concentration quenching was mainly due to dipole-dipole interactions between the same activators, and the critical distances were 9.0 and $19.6{\AA}$ for $Eu^{3+}$ and $Bi^{3+}$, respectively. The prepared $Gd_2O_3:Eu/Bi$ powder exhibited an average size of approximately 82.5 nm and a narrow size distribution. Finally, the $Gd_2O_3:Eu/Bi$ nanophosphor coated on the surface of the pearl pigment was confirmed to have good red emission under irradiation from a portable ultraviolet light-emitting diode lamp (365 nm).

The transition of europium-doped gadolinium oxide phosphor to gadolinium borate phosphor with the concentration of boron in the spray pyrolysis was investigated. The particles prepared from spray solution below 10 wt% boric acid of prepared phosphor had crystal structure of $Gd_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor, in which the crystallinity of the particles decreased with increasing the boron concentration. A single phase $GdBO_3:Eu$ phosphor particles were prepared from spray solution above 50 wt% boric acid of prepared phosphor. The phosphor particles prepared from spray solution with 20 wt% boric acid of prepared phosphor had no XRD peaks of $Gd_2O_3:Eu$ and $GdBO_3:Eu$ Therefore the phosphor particles prepared from spray solution with 20 wt% boric acid of prepared phosphor had the lowest photoluminescence intensity under ultraviolet and vacuum ultraviolet. $GdBO_3:Eu$ and $Gd_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles prepared from spray solutions with proper concentrations of boric acid had good photoluminescence intensity under vacuum ultraviolet. The morphology of the phosphor particles were strongly affected by the concentrations of boric acid added into spray solution.

We made $P_2O_5-SiO_2$ films on silicon for integrated optics application by low pressure chemical vapor deposition using TEOS (tetraethylorthosilicate) and TMPite (trimethylphosphite) and studied the deposition characteristics. The activation energy of the reaction was changed from 54.6 kcal/mole to 39.2 kcal/mole by incorporating the TMPite into the reaction of TEOS. The deposition rate and the P concentration of films increased in proportion to the flow of TMPite. As the deposition temperature increased, the deposition rate of the films increased but the P concentration decreased. The fabricated films showed the increase of refractive index of 0.0019 per 1 wt% of P concentration. The nonuniformity of films was ${\pm}$7% in thickness and ${\pm}$0.5wt% in P concentration and we showed this'nonuniformity is due to the nonuniform transport of TMPite. The films of more than 10wt% P concentration developed phosphoric acid on its surface when exposed to air for long time.

Recently, the acid precipitation, composed primarily of dilute $H_2$S $O_4$, HN $O_3$and originating from the burning of fossil fules, has become one of the major environmental problems. This study was carried out to investigate the chemical features of precipitation at Sobaek-san Meteorological Observation Station(mean sea level; 1,340m, 36$^{\circ}$56’N, 128$^{\circ}$27' E)from May 1991 to December 1993. The major Point in this study divided the whole wind directions into two parts. And, the two parts are the north- westerly wind case and south-easterly wind case. The concentration of anions and cations in precipitation were measured by ion chromatography(Dionex 4000i). The volumn weighted mean pH and conductivity values of the whole precipitation period were 5.26, 14.3$mutextrm{s}$/cm, respectively. The order and frequency rate of the major anions concentration in the north- westerly and south easterly wind case were S $O_4$$^{2-}$(49.3%) ＞ N $O_3$$^{[-10]}$ (23.9%) ＞ C $l^{[-10]}$ (14.8%) ＞ $F^{[-10]}$ (12.0%) and S $O_4$$^{2-}$(61.1% ) ＞ N $O_3$$^{[-10]}$ (21.5%) ＞ C $l^{[-10]}$ (13.5%) ＞ F/sip -/(4.0%), respectively. The order and frequency rate of the major cations concentration in the north-westerly and south- easterly wind case were $Ca^{2+}$(49.3%) > N $H_4$$^{+}$(24.2%) >N $a^{+}$(22.4%) ＞M $g^{2+}$(14.9%) > $K^{+}$(3.8%) and N $H_4$$^{+}$(4:3.8%) $Ca^{2+}$(28.6%) ＞ N $a^{+}$(16.8%) > $K^{+}$(6.3%) > $Mg^{2+}$(4.5%), respectively. The larger anions and cations concentration values than others were S $O_4$$^{2-}$, N $O_3$$^{[-10]}$ and $Ca^{2+}$, N $H_4$$^{+}$, respectively. The correlation coefficient between pH value and ion concentrations for the north-westerly and south-easterly wind case was shown less than 0.5 except for Ca/.sup 2+/ in the statistical analysis SPSS. But the correlation coefficient for the all wind case between sulfate and cations was shown high correlation above 0.6.correlation above 0.6.
