The effect of forging condition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of 9Cr-1Mo heat-resisting steel was investigated. Microstructure of centrifugal casted 9Cr-1Mo heat resisting steel and forged heat resisting steel are consisted of martensite. With the increase of forging ratio, tensile strength and hardness increased, while elongation and impact value decreased. By increasing of forging starting temperature and finishing temperature, tensile strength and hardness increased, while elongation and impact value decreased. We obtained the optimum forging conditions as follow, forging ratio is 30%, forging starting temperature is $1200^{\circ}C$ and forging finishing temperature is $950^{\circ}C$.

This study was performed to evaluate a newly proposed heating process of blank, which was used for Crank throw in the diesel engine, and provide design guidelines of heating processes. Non-linear numerical analyses were done using ANSYS program to investigate temperature and thermal stress distributions of blank during heating processes. The heating process consists of two stages; one is a heating stage with 20 hours, and the other is a holding stage with 12 hours, totaling 32-hour heating time. Based on analysis results, it was found that the temperature difference between the center and the surface of blank increased linearly during the heating stage but decreased gradually during the holding stage of heating processes, while max. equivalent stress, $12.5kg/mm^2$, was found at the center of blank after 10-hour heating time. As the guideline of blank heating process, it was recommended to keep the temperature difference between the center and the surface of blank to be within $150^{\circ}C$ when the environment temperature in furnace reaches $650^{\circ}C$ during a heating stage.

The effect of forging start temperature, forging ratio on the microstructure and mechanical properties of B7B4 steel ware investigated. Microstructure of centrifugal casted B7B4 steel consisted of martensite and ferrite phase. The volume fraction of ferrite increased with increase of forging start temperature and decreased with increase of forging ratio. Tensile strength and hardness decreased with higher of forging start temperature, while impact value and elongation increased with higher of forging start temperature. With increase of forging ratio, tensile strength rapidly increased up to the forging ratio of 30%, and then slowly increased, but elongation was decreased. Hardness and impact value rapidly increased with increase of forging ratio.

용탕단조방법에 의해 제조된 Mg-6Al-xZn(x=0, 1, 2)합금의 기계적 성질에 미치는 시효열처리의 영향을 조사한결과 아래와 같은 결론을 얻었다. (1) 주조조직을 관찰한 결과 미세한 수지상조직을 나타냈으며 초정${\alpha}$, 과포화 ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$상 등 세가지 상으로 구성되어 있었다. (2) Mg-6Al-xZn합금은 시효경화성을 나타내었으며 Zn의 첨가량이 증가할수록 전시효구간에서 경도값이 높게 나타났다. (3) 시효조직을 관찰한 결과 $200^{\circ}C$의 시효시에는 불연속 석출물이 대부분 차지했으나 $240^{\circ}C$의 시효온도에서는 수지상 경계에서 시작되는 미세분산된 연속석출물이 대부분 이었다. (4) $240^{\circ}C$에서 시효열처리 한 시편은 연속석출물이 석출됨으로서 $200^{\circ}C$에서의 시효열처리된 시편에 비하여 과시효되는 경향이 작았다. (5) T6열처리 후 인장시험 결과 Zn 첨가량에 따라 강도가 증가하였는데 Mg-6Al-2Zn합금의 경우 인장강도는 248.4 MPa을 나타내었으며 Zn양에 따른 연신율의 감소는 나타나지 않았다.

A vulcanization reaction characteristics of an isoprene rubber (IR)-modified natural rubber/carbon black (NR/CB) composite was studied using in-situ electrical property measuring technique. Since the electrical conductivity of the sample composite would be changed continuously during the vulcanization reaction by rearranging of the carbon black particles within the sample, volume resistivity (${\rho}$) might be obtained as a function or reaction time. A stabilization time ($t_i$), maximum reaction speed time ($t_p$), and volume resistivity at that time(${\rho}_p$) were defined from the data for the Arrhenius analysis. Volume resistivity ${\rho}$ showed a comparatively high value of ${\sim}10^8$ order before the reaction started, and dramatically decreased to be stabilized within $1{\sim}2$ minutes as soon as the reaction started. As the more time elapsed, thereafter, ${\rho}$ decreased monotonously to a certain constant value through a peak, ${\rho}_p$ at time $t_p$, which was considered as the maximum reaction rate. As a result, while $t_i$ values were comparatively constant as $1{\sim}2$ minutes, $t_p$ values showed to become shorter and shorter as the reaction temperature.
