This paper suggest tungsten (W)-carbon (C)-nitrogen (N) thin films for diffusion barrier that W is main material and C and N are additives. W-C-N thin films are deposited with fixed rates of W and C but with a variation of $N_2$ gas flow and W-C-N thin films are heated at $600^{\circ}C$. From the experimental results, the variation of elastoplastic region for W-C-N thin film measured by tribological property is larger than that of elastic region with a variation of $N_2$ gas flow. These results show that the $N_2$ gas flow is more directly related with the elastoplastic region of W-C-N thin film. Nanoindenting test executed 16 times consecutively and we got the stress-strain curve graphs and hardness datas at each sample. Through the stress-strain curve graphs, the standard diviation of stress-strain curve for $N_2$ gas flow rate of 2.0 sccm is smaller than that of 0, 0.5, 1.5 sccm. Consequently, the physical stability of W-C-N thin film depends on the flow rate of $N_2$ gas.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the types of conceptions of mixing phenomena related to dissolution and diffusion in high school students. The subjects of the investigation consisted of 108 students who took chemistry I course at 11th grade and 29 students who took chemistry II course at 12th grade. For this study, it was found that the many students had the alternative conception that chalk didn't dissolve in water because chalk was a nonpolar material. Most of the students understood the phenomena which carbon tetrachloride and water will not mix as the attraction conception. But many of the other students understood the phenomenon as characteristic of the materials such as difference of density. Many of the students understood the phenomenon of mixing ethanol and water constantly as ‘Attraction conception'. The phenomenon which is mixed ink and water was just accepted by the most students as the spreading of ink in water without understanding the reason of mixing. The phenomena of mixing iodine and carbon tetrachloride was understood as ‘Space conception' or ‘Attraction conception'. It could be inferred that the diverse alternative conceptions related to dissolution and diffusion phenomena were generated by the absence of entropy concept. Therefore, the explanations of science textbooks related to dissolution and diffusion phenomena need to change for students to understand them correctly.

As the seriousness and necessity of responding to climate change and reducing carbon emissions increases, countries around the world are continuing their efforts to reduce greenhouse gases. Among various efforts, research on CCUS, capturing and utilizing carbon dioxide generated when using carbon-based fuels, is actively being conducted. Studies on pressurized oxy-fuel combustion (POFC) that can be used with CCUS are also being conducted by many researchers. The purpose of this study is to analyze basic information related to the flame structure and pollutant emissions of pressurized oxy-fuel combustion. For this, a counter-flow diffusion flame model was used to analyze the combustion characteristics according to pressure and oxygen concentration. As the pressure increased, the flame temperature increased and the flame thickness decreased due to a reaction rate improvement caused by the activation of the chemical reaction. As oxygen concentration increased, both the flame temperature and the flame thickness increased due to an improvement to the reaction rate and diffusion because of a change in oxidizer momentum. Analyzing the related heat release reaction by dividing it into three sections as the oxygen concentration increased showed that the chemical reaction from the oxidizer side was subdivided into two regions according to the mixture fraction. In addition, the emission index of NO classified according to the NO formation mechanism was analyzed. The formation trend of NO according to each analysis condition was presented.

The characteristics of autoignited lifted flames in laminar jets of carbon monoxide/hydrogen fuels have been investigated experimentally in heated coflow air. In result, as the jet velocity increased, the blowoff was directly occurred from the nozzle-attached flame without experiencing a stabilized lifted flame, in the non-autoignited regime. In the autoignited regime, the autoignited lifted flame of carbon monoxide diluted by nitrogen was affected by the water vapor content in the compressed air oxidizer, as evidenced by the variation of the ignition delay time estimated by numerical calculation. In particular, in the autoignition regime at low temperatures with added hydrogen, the liftoff height of the autoignited lifted flames decreased and then increased as the jet velocity increased. Based on the mechanism in which the autoignited laminar lifted flame is stabilized by ignition delay time, the liftoff height can be influenced not only by the heat loss, but also by the preferential diffusion between momentum and mass diffusion in fuel jets during the autoignition process.

Methanol extracts from 25 seed samples belonging to the family Leguminosae were subjected to an in vitro screening for their growth-promoting and inhibitory activities towards Bifidobacterium adolescentis, B. longum, B. bifidum, and Lactobacillus casei, using spectrophotometric and paper disc agar diffusion methods under $O_2-free$ conditions, respectively. The responses varied with both bacterial strains and plant species. Among seed extracts, extracts from Glycine max (light-green color) and Arachis hypogaea (dark-brown) enhanced the growth of lactic acid bacteria in media with or without carbon sources, suggesting that bifidus factor(s) might be involved in the phenomenon. This growth-promoting effect was most pronounced with L. casei among lactic acid bacteria used. Additionally, all seed extracts did not adversely affect the growth of the lactic acid bacteria tested.

Differences in electrode properties and in fluorine electrolysis behaviors of various carbon anodes, which were the YBD-like grade carbon, the YBD grade carbon and the P2X grade carbon, containing different pore sizes and distributions were investigated. The evaluations were performed by measuring their mechanical properties, cyclic voltammograms and chronoamperometries in 0.5 M $K_2SO_4$ solution with 1 mM $[[Fe(CN)_6]^\;{3-}/Fe(CN)_6$] $^{4-}$ redox couple and electrochemical behaviours of fluorine electrolysis in molten KF . 2HF electrolyte at $85^{\circ}C$. It was found that the P2X grade carbon anode showed better electrode properties in the cyclic voltammogram and chronoamperometry than the other carbon anodes while the YBD-like grade carbon anode which contained the pore size of 200~300$\mu$m showed superior electrode properties for fluorine electrolysis to the others. These differences in the electrode properties of various carbon anodes seemed to be owing to different sizes and distributions of pores on their surfaces.

Gas diffusion layers (GDLs) of carbon composite type in polymer electrolyte fuel cells were prepared by simple and cheap manufacturing process. To obtain the carbon composite GDLs, carbon black with polymer binder was mixed in solvent, rolled to make sheet, and finally heat-treated at $340^{\circ}C$. The performance of fuel cell using composite GDLs was changed by PTFE content. The physical properties of composite GDLs for pore, conductivity and air permeability were analyzed to compare with the variation of fuel cell performance. The conductivity of composite GDLs was very similar to carbon paper as commercial GDL but pore properties and air flux were considerably different. The porosity, PTFE content and conductivity for composite GDLs did not have an influence on the cell performance much. The increase of pore diameter and air flux led to enhance cell performance.

고강도강의 용접성은 저온균열 저항성으로 대변되는데, TMCP강과 HSLA강 등이 개발되면서 고강도강의 저온균열저항성이 크게 향상되어 무예열 용접성이 확보되었다. 그러나 용접재료 측면에서는 그에 상응하는 재료의 개발이 지연되어 용착금속부에서의 저온균열이 심각한 문제로 대두되고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 문제는 800 MPa급인 HY-100강재를 HSLA-100강으로 대체하는 과정에서 현실적인 문제로 제기 되었다. 즉 HSLA강은 용접 예열이 필요치 않았으나 기존의 용접재료, 즉 HY-100 강재에 사용하던 용접재료를 사용하게 되면 용착금속부에서 저온균열이 발생하여 용접예열을 생략할 수 없다는 판단에 이르게 되었던 것이다. 이에 본 연구의 목적은 HSLA-100강을 무예열 용접할 수 있는 GMA 용접와이어 개발하는 것이며, 구체적인 개발 목표는 무예열 용접조건에서 800 MPa 이상의 인장강도를 가지며 $-50^{\circ}C$에서의 충격인성이 50 J 이상인 GMA 용접와이어 개발하는 것이다. 이러한 용접재료를 합금설계함에 있어 무예열 용접성을 확보하기 위하여 용접재료의 탄소함량을 0.01% 수준으로 하고, 용착금속의 인장강도와 저온 충격치에 미치는 Mn과 Mo 함량의 영향을 검토하고 각각의 조성을 실험계획법으로 확정하였다. 그리고 확산성수소량에 따른 저온균열 발생 여부를 확인하여 무예열용접성을 확보하기 위해서는 확산성수소량이 3ml/100g 이하가 되어야 한다는 사실을 실험적으로 확인하였다. 그리고 이를 달성하기 위해서는 원자재인 와이어로드의 표면 품질이 중요하다는 사실도 확인할 수 있었다. 다음으로는 실험계획법에 의거하여 선정된 합금조성의 신뢰성을 검증하기 위하여 800kg 중량의 시제품을 생산하였으며, 생산된 시제품에 대해서는 실험계획법에서 사용한 Ar+5%CO2외에도 Ar+20%CO2를 적용하여 보호가스의 영향을 검토하였다. 검토 과정에서 Ar+20%CO2용으로 사용하기 위해서는 용접재료의 Si 및 Mn 함량이 상향조정되어야 함을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 탄소함량을 0.05% 수준으로 증가시키면 Mo 함량을 크게 저하시킬 수 있음도 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 과정을 거쳐 개발된 GMA 용접재료는 무예열 용접조건에서 저온균열이 발생하지 않았으며, 인장강도는 830 MPa이었으며 $-50^{\circ}C$에서의 충격치는 90 J 이상이었다.

A two-dimensional Monte Carlo simulation has been used to investigate the effect of the reaction temperature on the formation of the silicon carbide conversion layer near the surface of graphite substrate The carbothermal reduction of silica is the reaction mechanism of silicon carbide formation on graphite substrate by chemical vapor reaction methods. The chemical composition of silicon carbide conversion layer gradually changes from carbon to silicon carbide because gaseous reactants diffuse through micropores within graphite substrate and react with carbon at the surface of inner pores. The simulation was carried out under the condition of reaction temperature at 1900K, 2000K, 2100K and 2200K for 500MCS. It was found from the results of simulation that the thickness of silicon carbide conversion layer increases with reaction temperature.
