$TiO_2-SiO_2-In_2O_3$ nanocomposite thin film was deposited on the glass substrates using a dip coating technique. The morphology, surface composition, surface hydroxyl groups, photocatalytic activity and hydrophilic properties of the thin film were investigated by AFM, XPS, methyl orange decoloring rate and water contact angle measurements. The hydroxyl content for $TiO_2$, $TiO_2-SiO_2$ and $TiO_2-SiO_2-In_2O_3$ nanocomposite films was calculated to be 11.6, 17.1 and 20.7%, respectively. $TiO_2-SiO_2-In_2O_3$ film turned superhydrophilic after 180-min irradiation with respect to pure $TiO_2$ and $TiO_2-SiO_2$ thin films. The photocatalytic decomposition of methyl orange for $TiO_2$, $TiO_2-SiO_2$ and $TiO_2-SiO_2-In_2O_3$ thin films was measured as 38.19, 58.71 and 68.02%, respectively. The results indicated that $SiO_2$ and $In_2O_3$ had a significant effect on the hydrophilic, photocatalytic and self-cleaning properties of $TiO_2$ thin film.

Oxide powders of $Cr_2O_3 \;and\;Cr_2O_3+3{\%}TiO_2$ were prepared by spray drying, plasma densification and fused+crushed processes. The oxide coating layers were made by plasma spray and characterized by microstructure, hardness, adhesion strength and relative density. The optimum spray distance for the high quality coatings by spraying dried powders was found to be 9cm. A small amount addition of $TiO_2\;in\;Cr_2O_3$ powder significantly improved coating characteristics by lowering the melting point of powders. The hardness and relative density of coating layers of the plasma densified powders were comparable to fused and crushed powders, however, the adhesion strength was much higher in the former case.

Alumina supports for TiO2 ultrafiltration membrane coating were prepared by presintering disk-type preforms at 140$0^{\circ}C$. These supports showed uniform microstructures which had the apparent porosity of 40%, the pore size distribution in the range of 0.1~0.5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, and the water flux of 1400ι/$m^2$.h at the pressure difference of 10 atm. The optimum pH and concentration of the TiO2 sol for coating were 0.8 and 1.0 wt%, respectively, and sol particles were identified as rutile forms of 20 nm size. Crack-free alumina-supported rutile TiO2 membranes could be prepared through well controlled drying and heating the gel layer coated by the sol-gel dipping. The pore size of the TiO2 membranes heat-treated at 50$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs was 30~80$\AA$, and their thickness varied from 1.1 to 3.8 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in accordence with the dipping time (4~40 min). The flux of water through this composite membrane at 10 atm was found to be in the range from 800 to 1100ι/$m^2$.hr depending on the dipping time (10~40 min). The membrane thickness increased linearly with the square root of the dipping time and the slope was 0.62 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$/{{{{ SQRT { min} }}.

[공기 $ISiO_2ITiNI$ 유리]설계의 반사율이 가시광선 영역에서 0이 되는 TiN의 이상적인 복소수 굴절률을 계산하였다. TiN과 $SiO_2$의 각 층의 두께 변화에 따른 2층 무반사 코팅의 반사율을 전사모의하였으며, 그 결과 TiN의 두께를 조절함으로써 최저 반사율 영역의 폭과 반사율을 변화시킬 수 있었고, $SiO_2$층의 두께를 조절함으로써 반사율이 최저가 되는 중심을 이동시킬 수 있었다. RF 마크네트론 스퍼터링 방법으로 증착한 TiN 박막의 화학적, 구조적, 전기적 특성은 각각 Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS), atomic force microscope(AFM), 4점 탐침 측정기를 이용하였다. 또한 TiN 박막과 2층 무반사 코팅의 광학적 특성은 분광광도계와 variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometer(VASE)를 이용하여 조사하였다. AFM 측정 결과 TiN 박막의 rms 거칠기는 $9~10\AA$으로 비교적 박막의 표면은 균일하고, 높은 기판온도에서 증착한 TiN 박막의 비저항은 4점 탐침측정 결과 $360~730\mu$\Omega $ cm로 매우 낮으며, RBS측정 결과 Ti:O:N=1:0.65:0.95 비율로 산소가 포함되어 있음을 알았다. 이러한 TiN 박막의 특성과 전산모의 바탕으로 증착한 TiN층을 이용한 2층 무반사 무정전 코팅[공기 $ISiO_2ITiNI$ 유리]의 반사율은 440~650 nm영역에서 0.5% 미만이었다.

Candidate coating materials for re-usable metallic nuclear fuel crucibles, TaC, TiC, ZrC, $ZrO_2$, and $Y_2O_3$, were plasmasprayed onto a niobium substrate. The microstructure of the plasma-sprayed coatings and thermal cycling behavior were characterized, and U-Zr melt interaction studies were carried out. The TaC and $Y_2O_3$ coating layers had a uniform thickness, and high density with only a few small closed pores showing good consolidation, while the ZrC, TiC, and $ZrO_2$ coatings were not well consolidated with a considerable amount of porosity. Thermal cycling tests showed that the adhesion of the TiC, ZrC, and $ZrO_2$ coating layers with niobium was relatively weak compared to the TaC and $Y_2O_3$ coatings. The TaC and $Y_2O_3$ coatings had better cycling characteristics with no interconnected cracks. In the interaction studies, ZrC and $ZrO_2$ coated rods showed significant degradations after exposure to U-10 wt.% Zr melt at $1600^{\circ}C$ for 15 min., but TaC, TiC, and $Y_2O_3$ coatings showed good compatibility with U-Zr melt.

$TiO_2$ 코팅매체를 이용한 humid acid의 광분해 특성을 조사하였다. $TiO_2$ 코팅은 $TiOCl_2$ 수용액을 암모니아수로 침전시킨 겔을 과산화수소로 용해한 용액 혹은 졸이나 titanium tetraisopropoxide (TTIP)의 가수분해로부터 제조한 졸을 이용하여 dip-coating법으로 제조하였다. Titanium peroxo 용액을 열처리하여 제조한 졸을 이용한 코팅층은 X-선 회절 분석으로부터 $25^{\circ}C{\sim}500^{\circ}C$ 온도 범위에서 모두 anatase형 결정구조를 가지고 있었다. 반면에 TTIP의 가수분해로 생성된 졸로부터 만든 코팅막은 $400^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 anatase의 결정형이 나타났다. 이로부터 titanium peroxo 용액을 열처리하여 제조한 졸은 내열성 및 비내열성 기판에도 결정성 $TiO_2$ 코팅층을 만들 수 있는 장점이 있다. 코팅막의 두께 및 균일성은 인출속도, 코팅졸의 농도 및 코팅 횟수에 영향을 받았으며, 코팅막의 두께에 따라 다양한 간섭색상을 나타냈다. 0.2M 졸을 이용하여 인출속도 2.5cm/min로 2회 코팅했을 경우, 약 50nm 두께의 투명하면서도 균일한 흐린 남색을 띠는 $TiO_2$ 코팅막을 얻을 수 있었다. 이상의 방법으로 직경 0.3cm의 유리구슬에 $TiO_2$ 코팅막을 제조한 후 $580cm^3$의 반응조를 사용하여 $UV/H_2O_2$ 공정으로 humic acid를 40분 동안 광반응시킨 결과, 초기 시료의 $COD_{cr}$ (40ppm) 을 약 85% 이상, 흡광물질을 약 95% 이상 제거하였다.

Ti-Al-N ($Ti_{75}$ $Al_{25}$ N) and Ti-Al-Si-N ($Ti_{69}$ $Al_{23}$ $Si_{8}$N) coatings synthesized by a DC magnetron sputtering technique were studied comparatively with respect to phase characterization and high-temperature oxidation behavior. $Ti_{69}$ $Al_{23}$ $Si_{ 8}$N coating had a nanocomposite microstructure consisting of nanosized(Ti,Al,Si)N crystallites and amorphous $Si_3$$N_4$, with smooth surface morphology. Ti-Al-N coating of which surface $Al_2$$O_3$ layer formed during oxidation suppressed further oxidation. It was sufficiently stable against oxidation up to about $700^{\circ}C$. Ti-Al-Si-N coating showed better oxidation resistance because both surface Ab03 and near-surface $SiO_2$ layers suppressed further oxidation. XRD, GDOES, XPS, and scratch tests were performed.

Mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) has been used to enhance the dispersity of Au nanoparticles in organic solvent and the affinity between the Au nanoparticles surface and titanium dioxide shell in the synthesis of $Au/TiO_2$ core-shell composite nanoparticles. The dispersity of the MUA-coated Au nanoparticles in ethanol aqueous solution with different concentration of $H_2O$ was investigated by UV-Vis. absorption spectrum and the coating amount of MUA was varied from 0.02 mM to 1.0 mM. The MUA-coated Au nanoparticles were highly dispersed in pure $H_2O$ in the wide range of the coating amount of MUA. On the contrary, the MUAcoated Au nanoparticles showed an enhanced stability in the ethanol/$H_2O$=8/2 mixed solution only when the coating amount of MUA was 0.05 mM, and in the ethanol/$H_2O$=7/3 mixed solution when the coating amount of MUA was in the range from 0.02 mM to 0.17 mM. From this systematic study, it can be inferred that the stability and the dispersibility of Au nanoparticles in organic solvents are highly sensitive towards the amount of MUA coating.

Generally it requires high sintering temperatures more than 135$0^{\circ}C$ to make semiconductive BaTiO3 ceramics. Also it is very difficult to achieve a homogeneous mixing in solid-state reaction method. Therefore the liquid phase distributed to non-uniform dilute the characteristics of PTCR. In order to improve the uniformity this study is used the sol-gel coating method. Using this method we studied the new manufacturing process that had a high reproducibility and mass production capability. Tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) was used as a source of Si. The semiconductive BaTiO3 ceramics which was produced by sol-gel method for the SiO2 addition and sintered between 124$0^{\circ}C$ and 130$0^{\circ}C$ showed almost same resistivity at room temperature among 125$0^{\circ}C$ and 130$0^{\circ}C$. As the results We could be sintered the semiconducting BaTiO3 ceramics at lower temperature even at 125$0^{\circ}C$ maintaining the same specific resistivity ratio ($\rho$max/$\rho$min) at 130$0^{\circ}C$. The specific resistivity both below and above the Curie temperature were increased by slow cooling and the steepness of the plots in the reasion of transition from low to high resistance increased as the cooling rate decreased.
