The $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticle was synthesized by the hot-injection method while varying the injection time of the precursor solution. The crystal structure was determined to be cubic inverse spinel with space group of Fd-3m based on X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements and the morphology of the prepared $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticle was studied with a high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM). When the precursor solution was injected for 0.5 min, the size of the $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticle was 7.63 nm, while the size of the obtained particle was 21.27 nm with the injection time of 60 min. The magnetic properties of the prepared $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticle were investigated by both vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and $^{57}Co$ M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy at various temperatures. From the hyperthermia measurement, we observed that the temperature of the $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticle powder reached around $120^{\circ}C$ under 250 Oe at 50 kHz, when the injection time of the precursor solution was 60 min.

The crystallographic properties and cationic distribution of $M_{0.2}Fe_{2.8}O_4$ (M =Mn, Ni, Cu) and $Fe_3O_4$ thin films prepared by sol-gel method have been investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and conversion electron M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy (CEMS). The ionic valence, preferred site, and hyperfine field of Fe ions of the ferrites could be obtained by analyzing the CEMS spectra. The $M_{0.2}Fe_{2.8}O_4$ films were found to maintain cubic spinel structure as in $Fe_3O_4$ with the lattice constant slightly decreased for Ni substitution and increased for Mn and Cu substitution from that of $Fe_3O_4$. Analyses on the CEMS data indicate that $Mn^{2+}$ and $Ni^{2+}$ ions substitute octahedral $Fe^{2+}$ sites mostly, while $Cu^{2+}$ ions substitute both the octahedral and tetrahedral sites. The observed intensity ratio $A_B/A_A$ of the CEMS subspectra of the samples exhibited difference from the theoretical value. It is interpreted as due to the effect of the M substitution for A and B on the Debye temperature of the site. The relative line-broadening of the B-site CEMS subspectra can be explained by the dispersion of magnetic hyperfine fields due to random distribution of M cations in the B sites.

The internal oxide scale of twelve superheater and reheater tubes were tested which were serviced for 30,000~120,000 hours in thermal power plants. The oxide scale was formed in three layers. The Cr-rich area was observed beneath the original metal surface. The hematite ($Fe_2O_3$) phase was formed on the outer surface. The intermediate layer was magnetite ($Fe_3O_4$). The thickness of Cr-rich layer was about half of the total scale. All layers grew during the operation hour of the plant. The thickness of thickest scale was 0.2mm in superheater tubes. This can increase the tube metal temperature about $7^{\circ}C$ more than initial state. $7^{\circ}C$ tube metal temperature can reduce tube life about 30%, but the boiler tube's design margin is big enough therefore it has been analyzed that it would not effect on the life span.

Both oriented and non-oriented ferroxplana $Co_{1-x}Zn_xZ(Ba_3Co_{2(1-x)}Zn_{2x} Fe_{24}O_{41})$ with x=0.00, 0.45 were prepared by conventional ceramic method. The magnetostrictions of thus prepared specimens were measured by use of the three terminal capacitor device at room temperature. The magnitude of measured values was approximately five times greater than that of ZnY ferroxplana. The easy-magnetization plane at room temperature of both CoZ and Co0.55 $Zn_{0.45}$Z was their basal plane. The magentostrictions in the basal plane and the other planes showed saturated values at magnetic field intensity of about 2Koe and 4Koe, respectively. The magnetostriction constants $K_1, \; K_2, \;K_3\; and\; K_4$ for CoZ were -2.4, -10.5, -5.9 and -45.2$\times10^{-6}$ , while those for $Co_{0.55}Zn_{0.45}Z$ were +0.1, -1.2, -6.3 and -39.0$\times$10^{-6}, , respectively.

Perovskite-type mixed oxides LaBO$_3$(B = Mn, Fe, Co) were prepared by citrate sol-gel method in $air(850^{\circ}C$, 24h). The oxygen stoichiometries and structures of these oxides were determined by XRD and TPR results as followings; LaMnO$_{3.16}$(a = 5.507, c = 13.329 $\AA$, hexagonal), LaFeO$_{3.17}$(a = 5.554, b = 5.555, c = 7.863 $\AA$, orthorhomibic), LaCoO$_{3.0}$(a = 5.436, c = 13.095 $\AA$, hexagonal). The temperature programmed reduction(TPR) experiments in static 300 torr H$_2$ atmosphere shows that the reduction reaction of LaBO$_3$(B = Mn, Fe, Co) proceeds into two stages, and thermal stabilities of these oxides decreased in the order of LaMnO$_3$ > LaFeO$_3$ > LaCoO$_3$. According to the kinetic analysis the lowest activation energy was obtained for LaCoO$_3$.

In this paper, we propose a new method to infiltrate $Fe_3O_4$-nanoparticles into a porous silicon film and a monitoring technique to detect packing density of nanoparticles within the film. Recently, research to use porous silicon as a drug carrier or a new functional sensor material by infiltrating $Fe_3O_4$-nanoparticles has been extensively performed. However, it is still necessary to enhance the packing density and to develop a monitoring technique to detect the packing density in real time. In this light, we forcibly injected a nanoparticle solution into a rugate-structured free-standing porous silicon (FPS) film by applying a pressure difference between the two sides of the film. We found that the packing density by the pressure-infiltration method proposed in this paper is enhanced, relative to that by the previous diffusion method. Moreover, a continuous shift in wavelength of the rugate reflectance peak measured from the film surface was observed while the nanoparticle solution was being injected. By exploiting this phenomenon, we could qualitatively monitor the packing density of $Fe_3O_4$-nanoparticles within the FPS film with the injection volume of the nanoparticle solution.

Effect of Fe content on the electrical properties of Zn2Y (Ba2Zn2Fe12O22) was studied by investigating X-ray diffraction patterns, microstructure and resistivity of samples. When x(Ba2Zn2Fe12＋xO$\delta$) is between ＋1 and -1, Zn2Y single phase was obtained and electrical resistivity was inversely proportional to Fe content. The possible defect model of Zn2Y was proposed based on the observation. When x<-1 or x>1, second phase(ZnFe2O4 for x<-1, ZnFe2O4 and Ba3Zn3Fe24O41 for x>1) were observed and the electrical resistivity was inversely proportional to the sample density. The activation energy of electrical conductivity of the stoichiometric Zn2Y was 0.49eV below 20$0^{\circ}C$ and 0.07eV above 50$0^{\circ}C$.

The purpose of this study was to figure out the impacts of iron oxide types and dosages to bloating when producing artificial lightweight aggregates by utilization of recycled resources such as bottom-ash, reject-ash and dredgedsoil. In order to figure out chemical characteristics of raw materials, XRD and XRF analyses were performed. 50 wt% of dredged-soil, 15 wt% of bottom-ash and 35wt.% of reject-ash were mixed, then the amount of iron oxide was varied at 5 to 30 wt% with intervals of 5 wt% with $Fe_2O_3$ and $Fe_3O_4$ respectively. As molded aggregates were sintered by rapid sintering in intervals of $40^{\circ}C$ from $1060^{\circ}C$ to $1180^{\circ}C$, specific gravity and water absorption were measured. As a result, the artificial lightweight aggregate with iron oxide of 10~15 vol% showed the lowest specific gravity, and it was identified that the more iron oxide vol% increases, the more specific gravity increases because of liquid phase sintering.
