In general, magnetic abrasive polishing can be used to effectively produce a mirror-like surface; however, industrial applications of this process involve some unsolved problems. For example, the polishing efficiency is low, and the used abrasives have to be treated. In this study, which is aimed at solving these problems, a novel medium of silicone gel, consisting of ferromagnetic particles and abrasives, is developed, and the effect of this medium is assessed on the basis of Taguchi's experimental method. The workpiece is a tungsten carbide steel and the surface roughness after magnetic abrasive polishing using the silicone gel is evaluated.

내화학성이 우수하여 화학적 에칭이 어려운 고분자 물질위에 무전해 도금을 실시하기 위하여 흡착식의 촉매 활성화 처리방법이 아닌 졸-겔 코팅공정을 이용한 촉매 활성화 처리공정을 실시하였다. 이러한 공정으로 에칭공정 없이 실리콘 고무위에 무전해 도금이 가능함을 확인하였다.

In gelcasting process of the Si powder slurry mixed with acrylamide monomers, it was characterized the effects of chemical parameters such as monomers and additives(polymerization initiator, catalyst and dispersant), Si powder and humidity at drying on processing parameters such as viscosity and idle time as well as on shrinkage and mechanical strength of green bodies. Generally, idle time decreased as initiator and catalyst amounts were increased, but rather depended on initiator. Idle times of the slurries greatly decreased to less than 1/2 time of the premix solutions in which gelation was delayed at higher MBAM portion as a crosslinking monomer. And fluidity of the slurries became worse at greater than 0.6 wt % dispersant. The green bodies showed only less than 7% of linear shrinkage without crack and distortion when dried for longer than 300 hrs under 98% humidity. Typically, the dried bodies containing 40, 50 vol % of Si powder displayed 64 and 36 Mpa in average, respectively.

The important factors of reaction conditions in sol-gel transition of silicon alkoxide solution have been reviewed and discussed on the basis of Raman study. Various factors such as type of catalyst, alkoxide, solvent, drying control chemical additive and water content affect the conversion mechanism in sol-gel process.

In this paper, a ferrosilicon by-product was evaluated to confirm the feasibility of recycling it as supplementary cementitious material of ordinary Portland cement in concrete. Three different levels of replacement ratio (10 %, 20 % and 30 % of total binder) were applied to find which is the most beneficial to be used as a binder. Ferrosilicon concrete was initially assessed at setting time and compressive strength. Durability was evaluated by the resistance to chloride penetration test(RCPT) and alkali-silica reaction(ASR) with a comparison to silica fume concrete due to their similarity in chemical composition. The porosimetry and X-ray diffraction analysis along with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy give information on the microstructural characteristics of the ferrosilicon concrete. It was found that 10 % ferrosilicon concrete has higher strength while 20 %, 30 % have lower strength than OPC concrete. However, chemical resistance to chloride attack is higher when replacement is increased. Compared to silica fume, the durability of ferrosilicon might be less efficient however, it is obviously beneficial than OPC. High SiO₂ content in ferrosilicon results in producing more C-S-H gel which could make denser pore structure. Most of the risk of alkali silica reaction to silicate binders through length change tests was less than 0.2 %, and both mortar using ferrosilicon and silica fume showed better resistance to alkali silica reaction as the substitution rate increased.Reuse of industrial waste rather than producing highly refined additives might reduce environmental load during manufacture and save costs.

졸-겔 스핀코팅(sol-gel spin-coating)법을 이용하여 실리콘 기판에 ZnO 박막을 증착하였다. 증착된 졸 용액을 전열처리(pre-heat treatment) 후, 다른 속도로 상온까지 냉각시켰다. ZnO 박막의 특성 분석을 위하여 atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman, photoluminescence (PL)을 이용하였다. 전열처리 후 5$^{\circ}C$/min의 속도로 천천히 냉각시킨 ZnO 박막은 산맥구조(mountain chain structure)로 표면이 매우 거친 반면, 빠르게 냉각시킨 ZnO 박막은 매우 매끄러운 표면을 나타내었다. 빠르게 냉각시킨 ZnO 박막의 c-축 배향성(c-axis preferred orientation)이 느리게 냉각시킨 ZnO 박막의 배향성보다 더 우세하게 나타났고, 결정성도 우수하였다. 뿐만 아니라, 빠르게 냉각시킨 ZnO 박막의 광학적 특성이 느리게 냉각시킨 ZnO 박막의 특성보다 우수하게 나타났다. 후열처리(post-heat treatment)에 의해 ZnO 박막의 구조적 및 광학적 특성이 더욱 향상되었다.

Wet gel with surface modification by TMCS was redispersed in EtOH and redispersed silica sol for coat-ing was prepared. After spin coating of redispersed sol was conducted on silicon substrate, processes of drying(8$0^{\circ}C$) and heat treatment(>25$0^{\circ}C$) were, followed at ambient pressure. The influence of heat treat-ment of properties of film was observed, changing temperature at heat treatment. The optimum redisp-ersion condition for stable silica sol was wet gel:EtOH=1g:110$m\ell$ and the concentration and viscosity of redispersed silica sol with average particle size of 30nm were 0.11 M, 2.0-2.2 cP respectively. Crack-free thin film with the refractive index of 1.14 and thickness of 400 nm was obtained through drying at 8$0^{\circ}C$ and subsequent heat treatment at 45$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs respectively after spin coating of 1500rpm, 10 times.

This paper has aims to share fundamental knowledge for magnetic abrasive polishing and to mainly introduce recent research results. In order to enhance a magnetic flux density for nonferrous materials, advanced magnetic abrasive polishing system which is called 2nd generation system was established by electro-magnet array table, and the effectiveness of the electromagnet array table was evaluated in real polishing experiments. To increase adhesiveness of the abrasives in high speed polishing, a silicone gel agent was proposed and carbon nanotube particles as new magnetic abrasives were applied in the magnetic abrasive polishing. In addition, a strategy for optimal step-over determination by heuristic algorithm was introduced for applying large size workpiece. Curved surfaces having a uniform radius were simulated and tested with installed electro-magnet array table.

In this study, a comparative study is conducted on the synthesis methods for silica nanoparticle employing the silicon sludge waste generated from the semiconductor manufacturing processes. Specifically, acid-washed silicon sludge wastes with no impurities are employed as the precursors of sol-gel and hydrothermal methods for silica nanoparticles preparation. The morphologies and properties of silica nanoparticles synthesized via two synthetic methods are examined by various analysis methods. As a result, silica nanoparticles from the sol-gel method are fabricated with high purity and uniform shape, while the hydrothermal method exhibits advantages in yield and ease of synthetic process. This comparative study offers detailed experimental results on the two synthetic methods for silica nanoparticle synthesis, which may contribute to the establishment of manufacturing high-value materials using the by-products generated in the semiconductor process.
