The engineering ceramic needs the properties of high strength, hardness, corrosion-resistance and heat-resistance in order to withstand thermal shock or applied nonuniform stresses without failure. The densely coated porous ceramics can be used for machine component, electromagnetic component, bio-system component and energy-system component by their high-performances from superior coating properties and light-weight characteristics due to the structure including pore by itself. In this study we controlled the porosity of silica and alumina, $8.2\~25.4\%$ and $23.4\~36.0\%$, respectively, by the control of sintering temperature and starting powder size. We made bilayer structures, consisting of a transparent glass coating layer bonded to a thick substrate of different porous ceramics by a thin layer of epoxy adhesive, facilitated observations of crack initiation and propagation. The elastic modulus mismatch could be controlled using different porous ceramics as the substrate layer. Then we applied 150 N force using WC sphere with a radius of 3.18 mm by Hertzian indentation. As a result, the crack initiation in the coating layer was delayed at lower porosity in the substrate layer, and the damage in the coating layer was relatively smaller at the bilayer structure coated on higher elastic substrate.

Protein affinity membranes were prepared via coating of chitosan gel on the porous flat and hollow-fiber polysulfone membranes, followed by the immobilization of the reactive dye (Cibacron Blue 3GA) to the chitosan gel. Maximum protein binding capacity of these affinity membranes was about 70 $\mu{g/cm}^2$. Using the affinity flat membrane module, the elution chromatography of human serum albumin (HSA) was performed to determine the optimum condition of eluent buffer. The optimum condition of eluent was the universal buffer solution of 0.06 M concentration containing 1 M KCl at pH 10. For the frontal chromatography of HSA using the flat module, the dynamic protein binding capacity was rapidly decreased from the equilibrium values with increasing flow rate and HSA concentration of the loading solution. However, in the case of hollow-fiber module, the dynamic binding capacity was maintained an equilibrium value without depending on the operating conditions. These results showed that the hollow-fiber module was more effective than the flat module as an affinity chromatography column.

Thin-film composite reverse osmosis membranes of aromatic polyamides were prepared by the interfacial polymerization. Aromatic polyamides as active skin layer were made from the interfacial polymerization of MPD(m-phenylene diamine) in the aqueous and TMC(trimesoyl chloride) in HCFC(1,1-dichloro-1-fluoroethane) organic solvent. The performances of the various reverse osmosis composite membranes prepared by changing processing variables were examined. The performance of membrane manufactured by batch system was varied with organic solvent, monomer concentration, dipping time, heat treatment temperature, acid acceptor, ethanol post treatment, and acid post treatment. Ethanol post treatment was the most dominant factors in increasing permeate amount, while the monomer concentration and dipping time were the main factors in increasing selectivity. The spiral-wound module was produced with the membrane prepared at optimum condition of the continuous process. Comparing the performance of this membrane module made here with that of commercial membrane module, the permeate flux was increased by 33% while the rejection was decreased by 5%.

A hollow fiber membrane containing BSA as ligand was Prepared by radiation-induced grafting GMA onto a porous polyethylene hollow fiber and subsequent reacting with DEA and TEA. The density of the DEA and TEA of the membrane were 3.4 mmol/g, 1.7r mmol/g, respectively. The DEA membrane exhibited a higher amount of than the TEA membrane. BSA was immobilized by the graft chains during the permeation of BSA solution throught the DEA and TEA membrane. The BSA was adsorbed in multilayer binding of 8 onto the DEA membrane whereas adsorption onto the TEA membrane remained constant. A two-stage stepwise BTC was observed due to independent chiral recognition for L, D-Trp solution by DEA-BSA membrane.

A study on the polymerization of polyethylenedioxythiophene (PEDOT) and the carbonization process of a separator was carred out in order to apply conductive polymer PEDOT to the winding typed aluminum condenser as a solid electrolyte and a negative electrode. PEDOT was polymerized with ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) as a monomer and ferric-p-toluenesulfonate as an oxidizing agent. The separator of condenser element was carbonized to control its fibrous tissue for the purpose of making it easy to impregnate the PEDOT solution into the microporous etched pit of aluminum foil by preventing separator from concentrating the PEDOT solution on itself. The characteristics of condenser such as capacitance, dissipation factor, equivalent series resistance, and thermal resistance depended on a carbonization temperature and a carbonization time. It was found that a thickness and a density of the used separator were major parameters of carbonization process and the characteristics of condenser were affected by these parameters.

The adsorption characteristics of coffee were mvestigated at $5, 15, 25, and 35^{\circ}C$ under various water activities such as 11, 32, 57, 75 and 90% and prediction models were developed by optimization program. The moisture adsorption isotherm curves were similar to the typical sigmoid type. The values of equilibrium moisture content and the monolayer moisture content were highest in the Freeze Dried, which was due to porous structure by the drying method. In the result of adjusting the isotherm models in this paper, Halsey model generally gave the best fit for isotherms of coffee. Prediction model for equilibrium moisture content was established with water activity and temperature. Adsorption prediction models were also developed with water activity, with water activity and time, and with water activity, time and temperature, respectively.

The removal of particulate matter ranging from $0.01{\mu}m{\sim}10{\mu}m$ can be performed by using membrane filters composed of fibers. Electrospinning techniques offer the production of very thin fibers with a uniform fiber diameter over conventional techniques including template synthesis, melt-blown, phase separation, etc. Air filtration will be improved with electrospun membranes due to the open pore structures, high porosity, and large surface area of the membranes. In the present study, filtration efficiency increased with pore size decrease and fiber density increase induced by carbon nanotube and the increased CA (cellulose acetate) concentration during electrospinning process.

A Study on the characteristics of $Ta/Ta_2O_5/MnO_2$ capacitor applied $MnO_2$ by means of pyrolysis of manganese nitrate solution was carried out. Single phase of $MnO_2$ was obtained in the pyrolysis temperature range of 230 to $250^{\circ}C$ by TG/DSC analysis on manganese nitrate solution. Temperature of pyrolysis, concentration of manganese nitrate solution and the number of pyrolysis were selected for the basic parameters of embodying $MnO_2$ solid electrolyte and then the effects of these parameters on the characteristics of capacitor were estimated. The characteristics of capacitor pyrolyzed radiationally was superior to that of capacitor pyrolyzed convectionally on the basis of these optimized parameter conditions. It was verified that radiational pyrolysis formed smaller spherical $MnO_2$ particles than those of convectional one relatively and these facts resulted in forming uniform and dense solid electrolyte layer into the microporous sintered body of capacitor.

The chlorination kinetics of synthetic rutile prepared by selective chlorination of ilmenite with Cl₂ and CO gas mixture were studied in a fluidized bed. Th e effects of reaction temperature, reaction time, and the ratio of Cl₂ and CO partial pressure ($p_{Cl_2}/p_{CO}$) on the conversion rate of TiCl₄ were investigated. The conversion rate of TiC₄ was low under the high $p_{Cl_2}/p_{CO}$ conditions. Moreover, it was considered that the partial pressure of CO gas was more effective than that of Cl₂ gas when comparing the stoichiometric conversion rate and experimental results of high CO partial pressure. Considering the porous structure of particles, the rate controlling step of the chlorination of synthetic rutile was determined to be chemical reaction and the activation energy was calculated as 53.77 kJ/mol.

This study aims at evaluating feasibility of Bottom ash-mixed Foam Cement Banking(BFCB) Method on the enhancement of soft soil, which is developed to reduce self-weight of banking by applying bottom ash and foam. to cement slurry. In order to measure the behavior of soil when BFCB layer was covered to soft ground, a testing equipment for mock-up test was fabricated and phased loads were applied up to measurement of yielding and ultimate strengths as well as movement of ground particles. In addition, these measured values such as settlement and heaving were compared with ones of surface-hardening method prevailing on soil improvement. As the result through mock-up test, BFCB showed lower values of ground deformation, while wider range of deformation was observed in compare to the other method. And settlement and heaving were measured lower, which implies the method developed is very effective to applicability of soft ground.
