CO oxidation was performed with Cu-Mn and Cu-Zn co-precipitated catalysts as differential precipitant, metal ratio and calcination temperature. The effects of differential metal mole ratio and calcination temperature in mixed metal oxide catalyst were investigated with CO oxidation reaction. Physiochemical properties were studied by XRD, $N_2$ sorption and SEM. 2Cu-1Mn with $Na_2CO_3$ catalyst calcined at $270^{\circ}C$ has a large surface area $43m^2/g$ and the best activity for CO oxidation. $Cu_{0.5}Mn_{2.5}O_4$ in XRD peak shows the lower activity than others. The catalytic activity over the catalyst calcined $270^{\circ}C$ displayed the highest conversion, and it was better activity comparing with Pt catalysts CO conversion.

The slowly released potassium fertilizer was developed by mixing fly ash with KOH, anthracite coal powder, KCI, $K_2CO_3$ and $Mg(OH)_2$ as the substances for accelerating calcination. Measuring proper ratios of raw materials, we found that the anthracite coal powder was 12 percent and $Mg(OH)_2$ was two to three percent. The optimal calcination temperature and time were proved to be $850^{\circ}C$ and 30 minutes, respectively, however, the trial product with lower temperature and shorter time in calcination had low quality. The K solubility of the product was very low compared to that of the KCl fertilizer.

In this study, the effect on the zinc nuclei crystallization caused by changes preprocessing of the zinc crystalline glaze preparation has been studied. The mechanism of the nuclei formation in the crystalline glaze and development of the nuclei by studying the preprocessing step was explained. The preprocessing step was improved by altering mixing process of the materials prior to sintering: number of sieving dispersion process and ultra-sonication prove tests with various duration of sonication. According to the result, the sieving and sonication of the starting materials facilitated the interface reactions of $ZnO-SiO_2$ from $680^{\circ}C$ where low temperature willemite is formulated, and altered Si bonding for the easier bonding between Zn-Si. In other words, solely sieving was enough to accelerate the formation of willemite in low temperature. When the particles were distributed evenly by sonication, the willemite formation was even more significant.

If the properties of artificial lightweight aggregates produced by rotary kiln can be predicted by using a simulator equipped with a small electric furnace and a specially designed device for specimen movement, large amount of raw materials and plenty of test time can be saved to produce test products of lightweight aggregates. In this study a simulator for the accurate prediction of the artificial lightweight aggregates produced by rotary kiln was assembled by our own design and the properties of lightweight aggregates produced by both the simulator and rotary kiln were compared to speculate its usefulness. The average diameter of aggregates was 8 mm and atmosphere in the furnace was controlled by the amount of carbon powders. Specific gravity, absorption rate (%), black-core area in the cross-sectional view of both aggregates were measured and compared. Unlike oxydizing atmosphere, both specific gravity and absorption rate of the aggregates sintered at reducing atmosphere were increased with increasing carbon addition. It is concluded that the sintering atmosphere was the closest to that of the rotary kiln when the carbon addition was 0.7 g to make a reducing atmosphere in the furnace and the properties of both agreggates was also similar to each other.

In this study, the effect of addition of waste glassy slag produced from recycling of spent catalyst (denoted as waste glass hereafter) on the physical properties of artificial aggregates made of coal bottom ash and dredged soil (7 : 3 by weight base) was evaluated. Especially, the bloating behavior of artificial aggregates was analyzed by performing the relation study between the apparent density, water absorption and microstructure. The apparent density of artificial aggregates increased slightly with sintering temperature at $1050{\sim}1150^{\circ}C$, but decreased above $1150^{\circ}C$ showing bloating phenomenon. The bloating behavior of artificial aggregates was decreased so the apparent density increased with amount of waste glass added. Also, the water absorption of artificial aggregates decreased with sintering temperature. Above $1200^{\circ}C$, big fissure and much liquid were formed at the surface of artificial aggregates and these phenomena could be suppressed by increasing amount of waste glass added. The artificial aggregates fabricated in this study had an apparent density of 1.1~1.6 and water absorption of 8~22 % which meet KS requirements for the artificial lightweight aggregates.

We studied on the effects of hot-worm rolling on recrystalized structures and tensile strength in over-aged 7075 A1 alloy, to develop the process for improving properties. It showed more clear effect of the grain refinement with over-aging before plastic deformation. That means, the coarse precipitates from over-aging play a roll as nucleation sites in the course of recrystallization. And on this study, the relations between yield strength and grain size was not satisfied with Hall-Petch equation because of the elongated structure, but the yield strength is proportional to aspect ratio of grains. In TMT process for improving strength and toughness, the worm working is available for increase of those properties than cold working.

Two types of CaO-Al₂O₃-SiO₂ (CAS) glass powder applied spray coating on the surface of sintered Al₂O₃ were researched for sintering behavior; (1) Si-rich, glass containing high content SiO₂, (2) Ca-rich, containing high content CaO. Foaming of bubbles remaining inside the Ca-rich glass was produced at a viscosity of approximately 10⁷~10⁹ poise, resulting in decreasing shrinkage (interfering with sintering) and increasing surface roughness. In case of Si-rich glass, there was no serious foaming bubbles phenomenon like Ca-rich below 1000℃, however cristobalite crystals with low density occurred at 1200℃ and then produced re-foaming of bubbles, resulting in abnormal sintering behavior. These phenomenon is considered to be a decrease in viscosity due to an increase in the Ca content of the glass according to the formation of low-density cristobalite crystals. Therefore, in case of CAS glass, it is necessary to consider the increase of surface roughness and the sintering interference because of foaming bubbles phenomenon at low temperature sintering. Especially, when containing high SiO₂ content, abnormal foaming phenomenon due to crystallization at high temperature should be predicted.

ZnO-Pr$_{6}$O$_{11}$-Co$_3$O$_4$-CaO 사성분계에 SiO$_2$를 0.4at%까지 첨가하여 1180, 1200 및 125$0^{\circ}C$에서 소성하여 미세구조 및 전기적인 특성을 조사하였다. 소성온도 120$0^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 치밀한 시편을 얻을 수 있었고, Si는 주로 입계에 분포하고 있으며, SiO$_2$첨가는 결정립성장을 억제하였다. 이 현상은 고상소결만이 일어나 120$0^{\circ}C$에서 소결된 시편과 액상소결이 일어난 125$0^{\circ}C$에서 소결된 시편 모두에서 관찰되었으며, SiO$_2$첨가에 의한 기공의 증가에 기인하는 것으로 판단된다. SiO$_2$의 첨가에 의해 바리스터의 비선형계수가 크게 변화하였으며, 시편의 소성과정이 고상소결인 경우 비선형계수가 증가한 반면 액상소결인 경우에는 감소하였다. 적절한 양의 SiO$_2$(약 0.3at%)를 첨가하여 액상이 형성되지 않는 120$0^{\circ}C$에서 소성하여 80 이상의 비선형계수를 갖는 바리스터를 제조할 수 있었다.

Most metals are polycrystalline material whose deformation is dominated by the slip system. During the deformation process, orientation of slip systems is rearranged with preferred orientations, leading to deformation-induced crystallographic texture which is called deformation texture. Depending on the texture development, the property of material can be changed. The rate-independent crystal plasticity which is based on the Schmid law as a yield function causes a non-uniqueness in the choice of active slip systems. In this work, to avoid the slip system ambiguity problem, rate-independent crystal plasticity model based on the smooth yield surface with rounded-off corners is adopted. In order to simulate the polycrystalline material under plastic deformation, we employ the Taylor model of polycrystal behavior that all the grains are assumed to be subjected to the macroscopic velocity gradient. Rigid-plastic finite element program based on this rate-independent crystal plasticity is developed to predict the grain-level deformation behavior of FCC metals during metal forming processes. In the finite element calculation, one integration point is considered as a crystalline aggregate which has a number of crystals. Macroscopic behavior of material can be deduced from the behavior of aggregates. As applications, the extrusion processes are simulated and the changes of mechanical properties are predicted.

The difference of plasma resistance between the CAS glass bulk and coating films were compared. Plasma resistance was confirmed by analyzing the etch rate and the microstructure of the surface when the CAS glass bulk and the glass coating film were etched with CF₄/O₂/Ar plasma gas. CAS glass coating film was etched up to 25 times faster than the glass bulk. A statistically high correlation between the surface roughness and the etching rate of the coating film was derived, and thus, the high surface roughness of the coating film was determined to cause rapid etching. In addition, cristobalite crystals that has a low Ca content and a high Si content, was foamed on the glass coating film. Therefore, the CAS glass coating film is considered to have low plasma resistance compared to the glass bulk.
