In this study, the effect of the reinforcement on the wear behaviour and mechanical properties of hypereutectic Al-Si alloys was investigated. The Gas atomized hypereutectic Al-20Si alloy powders were mixed with 1, 3, and 5 wt.% AlN and TiC ceramic particles and consolidated by hotpress. The Al-20Si powder has both finely dispersed primary Si phases and eutectic structures. The Al-20Si-AlN, TiC composites showed that the reinforcements were distributed along the boundary of the Al-20Si alloy. The UTS increased with increasing the AlN, TiC contents. At a lower load, with an increasing weight fraction of reinforcements, the wear rate decreased in both composites and the wear mechanism was adhesive wear. At a higher load, the shape of the debris changes the mechanism of the AlN composites to abrasive-adhesion wear and this resulted in an increase of the wear rate.

Pressable ceramics have many applications in the field of dental industry because of their excellent esthetic, compressive strength, chemical durability. Despite these attractive characteristics, they have not been widely used since they are very brittle and extremly sensitive to porcelain. In this study, the fabrication of pressable dental porcelain ($SiO_2-Al_2O_3-K_2O-Na_2O$) as a function of contents of $Al_2O_3,\;BaO\;and\;ZrO_2$ were investigated. And then compressive strength, Vickers hardness, density and thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) tests have been carried out to evaluate properties of pressable dental porcelain fabricated. The property of pressable dental porcelain fabricated by adding of 15%$Al_2O_3$ and 2%BaO contents was closely approximated to that of natural tooth.

The 2, 4, 6 and 8mol% Y2O3 doped-ZrO2 powders (20 kinds) with the addedtion of Al2O3 upto 8wt% were prepared by coprecipitation method using the zirconium oxyacetate, yttrium chloride and aluminum nitrate as starting materials. The coprecipitated powders were characterized by XRD, TG-DTA, FT-IR and SEM. The sintering properties of zirconia-alumina composites prepared by 2YSZ and 8YSZ powders containing various Al2O3 contents were also investigated. With increasing the yttria stabilizer contents, the amount of exothermic heat for zirconia crystallization decreased. And it was confirmed that the crystallizing temperature of coprecipitated zirconia powders increased and the crystallization process occurred in a wide temperature range, as Al2O3 content increased in 8YSZ.

The relationship between storage stability and chlorophyll contents of dried laver(DL), roasted laver(RL) and roasted seasoned laver(RSL) according to packaging during storage at 20$\pm$0.5$^{\circ}C$ were investigated by measuring the acid value(AV) and the peroxide value(POV). There results are as follows; 1.The storage stability was decreased in the rank of 0 < 3< 6 < 9 months by storage term, RL < DL < RSL by the kind of laver products and PP/PE/AL/PE/LLDPE(Al) < PP/PE(PP) y packaging. 2. When the silica gel was added to RSL, the storage stability was improved. The more the addition level of silica gel was increased, the more the storage stability was improved. The rank order was 2g < 4g in RSL. 3. Reduction of the total chlorophyll content in RSL were deacreased to 10% when packed with Al and 24% when packed with PP.

This paper researches the Chloride Binding of Cement Paste according to the Ca/Si and Ca/Al Ratio. The mechanisms of chloride ion binding are not completely known, although it is believed that Alumina contents in cementitious system have an important role. For changing cement paste composition, Ordinary Portland Cement(OPC) paste is substituted by Granulated Ground Blast Slag(GGBS). With increasing the ratio of GGBS substitution(Thus alumina contents is increasing), The chloride binding capacity has a tendency to increase of binding chloride ion capacity.

The mixture of (opalit+Al) powder was ignited by electric shock for the preparation of sialon powder by changin the contents of Al. The formation reaction of sialon was investigated by heating the specimens of ignited mixture (opalit+Al) in nitrogen atmosphere at various temperature. The phases existing inthe specimens nitrided between 1400 and 1$600^{\circ}C$ were found $\beta$-sialon 15R-sia-lon $Al_2O_3$ and AlN but the mixture $\beta$-sialon and 15R-sialon was finally acquired by heating the ignited mixture of (Al 50%+opalit) at 175$0^{\circ}C$ for 3hours in nitrogen atmosphere.

Heavy metal accumulation in living organisms through food-wed can give serious damage on physiological responses for vital activities. The initiation of heavy metal supposed to begin from the bio-accumulation of plants. To establish basic data fur heavy metal contents in plants at the area without artificial contamination, both woody and herb plants at Mt. Kwang-Duk were studied. The content of heavy metals in various organs of plants were analyzed by ICP. The range of heavy metals in plants for Al, As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe. Mn, Pb, Se and Zn were 1.019∼257.200ppm, O∼2.929ppm, 0∼0.079ppm, 0∼0.054ppm, 0.023∼3.007ppm, 0∼1.997ppm, 2.031∼148.500ppm, 1.069∼51.320ppm, O∼126.900ppm, 0.708∼4.927ppm and 0.846∼4.949ppm, respectively. The amount of heavy metals in plants are much less than that of soil except some species. In woody plants, it was detected that the metal contents of leaves were higher than that of stems especially in case of Al and Fe with statistical significance. There were significant differences between shoots and roots of herb plants in metal content of Al, Co and Fe. Those metals have more accumulated in roots comparing with shoots. Some species of plants had shown the difference tendency of heavy metal accumulation. Generally, most species had not exceeded over twice of mean value each other, and had various difference according to the kinds of heavy metals.

The purpose of this study is to produce artificial lightweight aggregate. The properties of aggregate are deducted by analysing the plasticity of aggregate according to the addictive contents of $CaCO_3$ and $Al_2O_3$ on constant plastic temperature($1150^{\circ}C{\sim}1160^{\circ}C$) and the specific gravity, the percentage of water absorbtion. The density on the temperature of $1150^{\circ}C{\sim}1160^{\circ}C$ which results from that the plastic temperature of pottery stone is decreased by increasing the addictive contents of $CaCO_3$ and $Al_2O_3$ manufacturing artificial light weight aggregate using pottery stone is included in the arrange of light weight aggregate density. And the percentage of water absorbtion is 4.2~14% which is similar to or lower than existing artificial light weight aggregate. The unit volume weight is in inverse proportion to density and to increase addictive contents of flux.

In order to improve the production process of low cost and high purity Vanadium, this study was done to reduce $V_2O_5$ into V-Al master alloy by Aluminothermic Reduction, followed by refining of V-Al master alloy electron beam melting. As melting time was increased in electron beam melting of V, the contents of interstitial impurities and Al, Fe were decreased but the contents of Si, Mo and W were increased due to lower vapor pressure of these elements than that of matrix V. Consequently, it was profitable that melting of V was done for 180 seconds. In addition, with number of melting, the purity of V did not significantly vary, because volatile impurities in V were removed mostly during the first step of melting. As a result of V refining by electron beam melting, high purity Vanadium of 3N(99.91wt%) was acquired including interstitial impurities total contents of which were maximum 400ppm.

The AZO thin films were deposited on the corning 1737 glass plate by the RF magnetron sputtering and effects of working pressure and oxygen contents on the electrical properties were investigated. XRD spectra showed a preferred orientation along the c-axis and a minimum FWHM for the 70mTorr. From the surface analysis (AFM), the number of crystal grain of AZO thin film increased as working pressure increased. The film deposited with 70mTorr of working pressure showed n-type semiconductor characteristic having suitable resistivity $-1.59{\times}10^{-2}{\Omega}cm$, carrier concentration $-10.1{\times}10^{19}cm^{-3}$, and mobility $-4.35cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$ while other films by 7 mTorr, 20 mTorr of working pressure closed to metallic films. The films including the oxygen represent stoichiometric composition similar to the oxide. The transmittance of the film was over 85% in the visible light range regardless of the changes in working pressure and oxygen contents.
