The polyol process which applies to cobalt, nickel. copper and precious metals is a interesting and unexpected example of such a method for preparing uniform metal powders. The reaction proceeds via dissolution, and the polyol acts simultaneously as a solvent, a reducing agent, and to some extent a protective agent. Submicrometer uniform cobalt particles can be obtained by seeding the reactive medium ($AgNO_3$) to achieve a complete substitution of homogeneous by heterogeneous nucleation. By varying the number of nuclei it is possible to control to some extent the average particle size in the submicrometer (0.5$\mu$m) range.

A new process for uniform coating of copper to submicron tungsten powder has been developed. W-Cu alloy where copper can be uniformly distibuted has been made by the liquid phase sintering of thus prepared tungsten powder. It has been found that copper content can be lowered less than IOwt. % in our new process, maintaining the uniform distribution of copper in W-Cu alloy. Relative density above 96% was obtained after the liquid phase sintering when small amount of cobalt was added. It was revealed that the rapid increase of densification rate was due to the enhancement of wettability between tungsten particle and liquid copper.

DNA 센서의 중요한 역할 중의 하나는 염기서열을 분석함으로써 유전적인 질병이나 돌연변이를 찾아낸다는 점이다. 염기서열 분석법으로 질량, 광학, 전기 화학적 측정법 등이 있는데, 그 중 전기 화학적 측정방법이 타 방법에 비해 간편하고 비용도 저렴해서 전망이 매우 밝다. 전기 화학적 측정을 위해서는 전극의 표면 처리 공정과 전극 표면에서의 DNA immobilization, hybridization 공정 및 전기적 신호를 발생시키는 intercalator, 그리고 전기적 신호 검출을 위한 측정 장비가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 전극의 표면 처리 물질로서 2-mercaptoethanol을 사용했고 double strand DNA의 intercalator로써 methylene blue를 사용했으며, methylene blue의 환원 전류값을 측정하여 double strand DNA를 bare Au 또는 single strand DNA와 구분할 수 있었다. 이러한 연구 결과를 토대로 하여 전기 화학적 신호 검출을 이용한 DNA 센서의 가능성과 개발 방향을 제시하고자 한다.

Ag nanoparticles are extensively studied and utilized due to their excellent catalysis, antibiosis and optical properties. They can be easily synthesized by chemical reduction methods and it is possible to prepare particles of uniform size and high purity. These methods are divided into vapor methods and liquid phase reduction methods. In the present study, Ag particles are prepared and analyzed through two chemical reduction methods using solvents containing a silver nitrate precursor. When Ag ions are reduced using a reductant in the aqueous solution, it is possible to control the Ag particle size by controlling the formic acid ratio. In addition, in the Polyol process, Ag nanoparticles prepared at various temperatures and reaction time conditions have multiple twinned and anisotropic structures, and the particle size variation can be confirmed using field emissions scanning electron microscopy and by analyzing the UV-vis spectrum.

Nitrogen oxides (NOx) in combustion flue gas are currently mitigated by chemical processes such as catalytic reduction, absorption and adsorption. However, development of environmentally sustainable biological processes is necessary in the near future. In this paper, the up-to-dated R&D trend of biological methodologies regarding NOx removal was reviewed, and their advantages and disadvantages were discussed. The principles and applications of bacterial system including nitrification and denitrification and photosynthetic microalgae system were compared. In order to enhance biological treatment rate and performance, the insoluble nitric oxide (NO) should be first absorbed using a proper solubilization agent, and then microbial degradation or fixation is to be followed. The use of microalgal system has a good prospect because it can fix $CO_2$ and NOx simultaneously and requires no additional carbon for energy source.

In the recycling industry, the recuperation of zinc from Electric Arc Furnace dust by the Waelz process generates important quantities of slag. This slag presents good mechanical properties, and for the most siliceous slag. a high stability which would enable its use by total or partial substitution of certain granulates in civil engineering Our study (within the framwork of a European programme cofunded by the European Commission-DGXII) concerns the physico-chemical and mineralogical characterization and leaching behaviour of several types of Waelz slag. The leaching tests are regulatory tests and specific characterization tests of leaching behaviour. They take into account the influence of several main parameters of the valorization scenarios envisaged for the slag(e.g. pH, Redox potential, chemical nature of the leachant, type of contact-liquid/ solid etc.).

A low temperature processing route for fabricating porous SiC ceramics by carbothermal reduction has been demonstrated. Effects of expandable microsphere content, sintering temperature, filler content, and carbon source on microstructure, porosity, compressive strength, cell size, and cell density were investigated in the processing of porous silicon carbide ceramics using expandable microspheres as a pore former. A higher microsphere content led to a higher porosity and a higher cell density. A higher sintering temperature resulted in a decreased porosity because of an enhanced densification. The addition of inert filler increased the porosity, but decreased the cell density. The compressive strength of the porous ceramics decreased with increasing the porosity. Typical compressive strength of porous SiC ceramics with ${\sim}70%$ porosity was ${\sim}13 MPa$.

In this study, we evaluated tendency and degree of corrosion damages of Inconel 600 after chemical decontamination treatments under three different conditions. In the decontamination processes, the oxidation and reduction were performed as one cycle. Each process was continued up to 5 cycles. Characteristics of corrosion under decontamination processes were evaluated by Tafel analysis and weight loss. Characteristics of surface damage were observed by scanning electron microscope(SEM) and three-dimensional(3D) microscope. As the cycle proceeded, weight loss and corrosion current density increased. Intergranular corrosion damage occurred on the surface of the materials. The result revealed that the surface of Inconel 600 was attacked by the strong acid solution under all chemical decontamination processes, but the degree of the corrosion damage was different depending on the processes.
