도가니로를 사용하여 유리제품을 생산하고있는 중소 유리제조업체인 D.H사의 제품내 발생한 결함을 분석하였다. 제품내 결함으로는 기포, 코드(cord), 석물(stone)이 발생하고 있었으며, 광학현미경, EDS 등의 분석장비를 통해 제품내 결함을 분석한 결과 코드는 석물에 의해 발생하고 있음을 확인하였다. 석물의 EDS 분석결과 주요성분은 Si로 나타났으며, 이는 도가니의 장기간 사용시 도가니 내벽과 유리물의 반응에 의한 도가니의 용융침식에 의해 발생한 한가지 결점원에 의한 한가지 결정상으로 SiO₂의 고온결정상인 cristobalite임을 확인할 수 있었다.

LaF, KzFS1, LBO glass were manufactured successfully by using platinum crucible in LaF and using clay crucible in the KzFS1 and LBO. There was optically transparent and the refractive indexes were measured by minum deviation method of prism. LaF, KzFS1, LBO show that the refrective indexes are $n_d$ = 1.770 in LaF, $n_d$ = 1.603 in KzFS1, $n_d$ = 1.560 in LBO. The transmittance were obtained that LaF has 85%, and KzFS1 has 83% and LBO has 89% in visible range. These glasses have no any absorption spectrum under visible range. Therefore it has no any color.

This study focused on the material characteristics and archaeometric relationship between the molten glass and bronze materials within the crucibles and gilt-bronze Bodhisattva statue excavated from the Ssangbukri site in Buyeo, Korea. Yellowish green to red brown vitreous material in the crucibles was identified as lead glass which contained scarce amount of BaO, and low $Al_2O_3$ and CaO. Metallic molten material was identified as bronze of copper-tin-lead alloy with low amount of impurities that indicated well-refined materials. Also, cassiterite was used for raw metal ore of tin. The Bodhisattva statue consisted of major copper with trace impurities in the core metal, and gold amalgam in the gilded layer. Though lead isotopic analysis showed contradictory results in each lead glass, bronze and Bodhisattva statue that required further examination, it could be stated that the statue was made in the Ssangbukri site based on the high-level technical skills of bronze production.

The electrical conductivity of glass melter at high temperature has been measured. The conductivity is an important physical property for the research and the manufacturing process of glass. Because high temperature is an inconvenient situation to measure the conductivity of glass melter, we have made a platinum crucible and electrode and have measured the conductivity at high temperature. KCl solution, of which concentration is adjusted to the conductivity of glass melter, is used to get parameters of the conductivity cell. A measuring circuit is composed with an AC 1 kHz sine wave generator and an operational amplifier. The cell constants are determined from the measured voltages and the equivalent conductances of KCl solution. Various cells are tested to find a suitable shape for high temperature experiment. The results are compared by cell size, electrode depth, and cell configuration. The conductivity of the borosilicate melter is $0.053{\Omega}^{-1}cm^{-1}$ at $1,450^{\circ}C$.

This study was to identify the material characteristics and provenance of the crucibles, potteries and roof tiles from the Wonsinheungdong site in Daejeon, Korea. Similar mineral composition of each samples showed by microscopic observation and X-ray diffraction analysis. However, wall thickness and mineral characterization of each ceramic artifacts are quite different. The pottery is characterized by thin wall with 0.5 to 0.7 cm and fine grained clay matrix. While the crucible and roof tile has thick wall with 1.3 to 2.5 cm, poorly sorted texture of many quarz, orthoclase and plagioclase whithin ceramic fabric. And large elonagated voids formed by hydrocarbone of straw during the firing and loose matrix obseved in crucible. All ceramic samples and ground soil of the site show similar mineralogical characteristics geochemical behavior and clay-mineralization degree. This indicates making that the soil is probable to be a raw material of all ceramic from the Wonsinheungdong site. Also, firing temperature of most ceramic artifacts are estimated as 850 of all ceramic from the Wonsinheungdong site. Also, firing temperature of most ceramic artifacts are estimated as 850 to $950^{\circ}C$ but hardest pottery fired high temperature between 1,050 to $1,150^{\circ}C$. The vitreous molten materials interpreted in slag included segregation of copper and tin. But it can not exclude the possibility that the glass molten material because observed reddish and greenish vitreous fine structure under microscopic.

As the kettle excavated from a site in Hwangnam-dong, Gyeongju was presumed to have been used as a melting crucible in a glass production workplace, we decided to prove its usage by scientific analysis. First, we performed conservation treatment to find the original status of the kettle, and then SEM-EDS and XRD analysis of the five corrosions created on the surface of the kettle. The fragment of the spout, which played a crucial role for the kettle to be considered as a melting crucible, was discovered during the conservation treatment. So the mouth rim of the kettle was restored to perfection. When we observed the microstructure of the metal sample, it was proved to be cast iron gradually cooled without heat treatment. In the corrosion products, the main components were Fe and O and other components such as P, Si, Ca, and S were found. The main compounds were quartz, vivianite, goetheite, akaganite, lepidocrocite, hematite, etc. Although these components were used as raw materials for making glass, these were found not in the melting status but mere raw materials. This can be an evidence to show these site where the kettle was excavated had been a glass production workplace. However, it is not sure that the kettle was used as a melting crucible. Moreover, if we consider the organic mold and sand clay accumulated in the well site when the kettle was excavated at first, we can see this as a formative factor of the corrosions of the kettle. Therefore, we concluded that the kettle is a typical cast iron and was not used as a melting crucible of glass.

내열성과 내부식성, 촉매능력등이 뛰어난 백금은 자동차 배출가스 정화촉매, 유/무기화학반응의 공정 촉매, 석유화학산업에서의 촉매 등 촉매 뿐만 아니라 용융유리용 도가니, 유리 섬유용 부싱 등의 유리산업, 백금 열전대 외에도 전기/전자기기, 치과용 합금, 장신구, 항공우주,등의 많은 분야에서 폭넓게 쓰인다. 한편 낮은 기계적 특성을 개선하기 위하여 로듐 등의 백금족 원소를 첨가한 합금을 제조하여 이용하고 있지만 로듐의 공금 부족과 이에 따른 가격 상승으로 인한 대체조성의 설계가 요구되고 있다. 또한 고온의 산화분위기에 노출이 되면 산화물이 형성되고 이것이 휘발하여 중량의 손실이 생긴다고 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 백금 합금의 이러한 문제점의 해결방안을 제시하고자 백금족 원소를 첨가하고 첨가 원소별 산화휘발의 정도를 측정하였다. 시편은 plasma arc melting법으로 각각 Pt, Pt-20%Rh, Pt-11%Ir, Pt-10%Rh-10%Ir의 조성을 가지는 합금을 만든 후 압연을 하여 판상으로 만들었고, 이를 각각 $1000^{\circ}C$, $1200^{\circ}C$, $1400^{\circ}C$ 등에서 각각 96시간 까지 산화휘발시켜 중량손실량을 측정하였고 이를 XPS를 이용한 표면분석을 하여 산화휘발거동을 규명하였다. 그 결과 Pt-20%Rh가 가장 우수한 고온산화휘발특성을 보였으며 상대적으로 고온산화휘발특성이 좋지 않은 Pt-Ir 2원계 합금에 Rh를 첨가한 Pt-10%Rh-10%Ir 3원계 합금을 만들어 약 60% 향상된 결과를 얻을 수 있었고 이 결과를 증기압 관점에서 고찰하였다.

The crucibles of Baekje Kingdom from the Ssangbukri Site which were used for glass and metal melting had light brown, grayish blue and grayish brown colored bodies. In thin section, the crucibles contained numerous quartz grains and pottery fragments. The surface was covered with fine grained quartz for thermal resistance. Based on decomposition of mica group minerals and formation of mullite detected by X-ray diffraction analysis, it was inferred that all crucibles have been fired over $1,000^{\circ}C$. It was also found that firing temperature has exceeded $1,100^{\circ}C$ in some crucibles because feldspar was not detected. The maximum temperature was assumed at $1,200^{\circ}C$. The magnetic susceptibility values and geochemical characteristics sorted out the crucibles into two groups that differed from the characteristics of the local soils. This reflected geological setting of the site where the alluvium was formed from two kinds of surrounding rock masses, granite gneiss and biotite granite. However, the local soils had similarities with the crucibles in weathering degree and geochemical behavior of major elements. In consequence, it was considered that the raw clay of the crucibles was supplied from the local area of the site.

This paper summarizes the processing inorganic continuous fibers from Korean minerals. Continuous filament fibers have been produced from two rocks, basalt and quartz diorite porphyry(QDP), by melting method. The essence of the method is that the vitrified materials was placed into the bushing, platinum/rhodium alloy crucible with a nozzle, and heated electrically to a temperature which allowed fiber spinning. Vitrified basalt without additive was suitable for producing continuous filament fiber. However doping quartz diorite porphyry with boric oxide yielded a material which could be pulled continuously.
