In general the chemical composition of glass ceramics in Li2O-Al2O3-SiO2 system is similar to the composition of $\beta$-spodumene (Li2O-Al2O3-4SiO2). With the object to manufacture the glass ceramics which can be produced in the domestic pot the composition of glass was so settled at 1.0 Li2O.0.9Al2O3.6.0SiO2 in order to reduce the contents of Li2O, to prevent the corrosion of the pot and to decrease the cost of raw materials. 0.2 mole and 0.1 mole of the mixture of TiO2 and ZrO2 as nucleants were added to the basic composition of 1.0 Li2O-0.9Al2O3-6.0SiO2. Each sample was divided into two kinds with a TiO2/ZrO2 ratio of 2 to 1 and the other with a TiO2/ZrO2 ratio fo 1 to 1. Thermal expansion coefficient, the most important property of glass ceramics, was tested. The softening point and the melting point of the samples were observed by the use of a heating microscope. The results obtained were as follows. The manufacturing of glass ceramics seems to be possible in the industrial plant using the domestic pot. 1) The composition of the glass which can be melted in the domestic pot process was near 1.0 Li2O.0.9Al2O3.6.0SiO2. 2) The temperature range of crystal creation and crystal growth was between 850-94$0^{\circ}C$, and 5 hours holding the samples at the temperature range was enough to crystallize them. The major crystal was $\beta$-spdumene and there existed petalite partialy. 3) The thermal expansion coefficient fo the crystallized glass was negative. 4) The deforming point of the crystallized glass was 1435$^{\circ}C$.

Two kinds of humidity sensor are made, one by anodizing pure aluminum and the other by evaporation Sn02 on the anodized pure alumia film, and their electrical characteristics are investigated in various humidity atmosphere. The change of surface resistance with humidity of $AI_2O_3/AI$ and $SnO_2-AI_2O_3/Al$ sensors are found to be $1.40 \times 10^{-2}\Omega$/RH and $1.56 \times 10^{-2}\Omega$/RH, respectively. The hysteresis phenomena associated with the irreversibility of surface resistance-humidity is less in $SnO_2-AI_2O_3/Al$ sensor than in $AI_2O_3/AI$. It is concluded that $SnO_2-AI_2O_3/Al$ film can be used as humidity sensor in room temperature region because temperature dependence of surface resistance of the film is found to be as $0.56 \times 10^{-2} \Omega /^{\circ}C$ in O~ $20^{\circ}C$ range, where as $2.50 \times 10^{-2} \Omega /^{\circ}C$ in 40-$50^{\circ}C$.

In this study an investigation was made to determine optimum ratio between $SO_3$, MgO and $K_2O$ that maximizes $C_2S$ formation in Clinkering reaction Using response surface analysis method. It was proved that 1) Residual $K_2O$ int he clinker should be converted to $K_2SO_4$ because $K_2SO_4$ has less effect on the burnability than $K_2O$, 2) Optimum ratio if $SO_3$/K2O is 1.5, 3) Optimun balance between $CaSO_4$ and MgO is to be adjusted to such a level that w/o SO3=0.7(w/o MgO-2).4) In case of lack of $K_2O$ free CaO was minimized when $K_2SO_4$=2.3w/o and MgO=1.5w/o but if remaining $K_2O$ was 2w/o free CaI was minimized in the level that $K_2SO_4$=2.3w/o and MgO =1.5 w/o but if remaining $K_2O$ was 2 w/o free CaO was minimized in the level that $K_2SO_4$=4.5w/o and MgO =3.0 w/o.

CaO was added to the $MgAlCrO_4$ spinel, a main component of the mag-chro refractroies, by 0, 1, 5 and 10 mol% before sintering at 135$0^{\circ}C$ in air. The X-ray diffraction analysis produced an additional X-ray diffraction pattern of 8CaO.$6Al_2O_3$.$2CrO_3$ besides that of $MgAlCrO_4$. The formation of 8CaO.$6Al_2O_3$.$2CrO_3$ was interpreted as due to the presence of CaO.8CaO.$6Al_2O_3$.$2CrO_3$ was unstable and easily vaporized. It was concluded that formation of the unstable pollutant 8CaO.$6Al_2O_3$.$2CrO_3$ could be prevented in reducing atmospheres. It was found that the basic refractories containing $Al_2 O_3 -CaO-Cr_2 O_3$ system would be more stable and much less toxic in reducing at mospheres than in oxidizing stmosphere.

In order to investigate the effect of NiO on the ethanol gas sensing performance of ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ nanoparticles, NiO and ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ nanoparticles are synthesized by hydrothermal method. The sensor with ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ and NiO nanoparticles mixed at an optimum ratio of 7:3 showed 3.8 times improved sensing performance for 200ppm ethanol gas at $200^{\circ}C$. The enhanced gas sensing performance can be considered to be caused by pn heterojunction at the grain boundaries of ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ and NiO nanopartcles.

A variety of metal oxides were coated by sol-gel process from their metal alkoxides on the ribbons of Co-based and Fe-based amorphous alloys, and the effects of surface oxide coating on the magnetic properties of the alloy are investigated. The core loss is found to be reduced significantly by the oxide coating, the loss reduction becoming more prominent at higher frequencies. The shape of the hystersis loop is also dependent upon the kind of the coated metal oxide. The coatings of MgO, SiO2, MgO·SiO2 and MgO·Al2O3 induce tensile stress into the Fe-based ribbon whereas those of BaO, Al2O3, CaO·Al2O3, SrO·Al2O3 and BaO·Al2O3 induce compressive stress. These results may be explained by the modification of domain structures via magnetoelastic interactions with the shrinkage stress induced by the sol-gel coating.

In the cloud service, system resource such as CPU, memory, I/O bandwidth are shared among multiple users. Particularly, in Linux containers environment, I/O bandwidth is distributed in proportion to the weight of each container through the BFQ I/O scheduler. However, since the I/O scheduler can only be applied to conventional block storage devices, it cannot be applied to Zoned Namespace(ZNS) SSD, a new storage interface that has been recently studied. To overcome this limitation, in this paper, we implemented a weighted proportional I/O bandwidth sharing scheme for ZNS SSDs in dm-zoned, which emulates conventional block storage using ZNS SSDs. Each user receives a different amount of budget, which is required to process the user's I/O requests based on the user's weight. If the budget is exhausted I/O requests cannot be processed and requests are queued until the budget replenished. Each budget refill period, the budget is replenished based on the user's weight. In the experiment, as a result, we can confirm that the I/O bandwidth can be distributed on their weight as we expected.

PURPOSES : About 35% of air pollutant is occurred from road transport. NOx is the primary pollutant. Recently, the importance of NOx removal has arisen in the world. $TiO_2$ is very efficient for removing NOx by photocatalytic reaction. The mechanism of removing NOx is the reaction of photocatalysis and solar energy. Therefore, $TiO_2$ in concrete need to be contacted with solar radiation to be activated. In general, $TiO_2$ concrete are produced by substitute $TiO_2$ as a part of concrete binder. However, 90% of $TiO_2$ in the photocatalysis can not contacted with the pollutant in the air and solar radiation. Coating and penetration method are attempted as the alternative of mixing method in order to locate $TiO_2$ to the surface of structure. METHODS : The goal of this study was to attempt to locate $TiO_2$ to the surface of concrete, so we can use the concrete in pavement construction. The distribution of $TiO_2$ along the depth were confirmed by basing on the comparison of $TiO_2$ compare by using the EDAX(Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy). RESULTS : $TiO_2$ were distributed within 3mm from concrete surface. This distribution of $TiO_2$ is desirable, since the $TiO_2$ induce photocatalysis are located to where they can be contacted with the air pollutant and solar radiation. CONCLUSIONS : Nano size $TiO_2$ is easily penetration in the top 3mm of concrete surface. By the penetration $TiO_2$ concrete can be produced with the use of only 10% of $TiO_2$, by comparing the mixing types.

Geopolymer is an alumina silicate-based ceramic material that has good heat-resistance and fire-resistance; it can be cured at room temperature, and thus its manufacturing process is simple. Geopolymer can be used as a reinforcement or floor finish for high-speed curing applications. In this manuscript, we investigate a high-speed curing geopolymer achieved by adding calcium to augment the curing rate. Metakaolin is used as the main raw material, and aqueous solutions of KOH and $K_2SiO_3$ are used as the activators. As a result of optimizing the high bending strength as a target factor for geopolymers with $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$ ratio of 4.1 ~ 4.8, the optimum ranges of the active agent are found to be $0.1{\leq}K_2O/SiO_2{\leq}0.4$ and $10{\leq}H_2O/K_2O{\leq}32.5$, and the optimum range of the curing accelerator is found to be $$0.82{\leq_-}Ca(OH)_2/Al_2O_3{\leq_-}2.87$$. The maximum flexural strength is found to be 1.35 MPa at $Ca(OH)_2/Al_2O_3=2.82$, $K_2O/SiO_2=0.3$, and $H_2O/K_2O=11.3$. The physical and thermal properties are analyzed to validate the applicability of these materials as industrial insulating parts or repairing finishing materials in construction.

Pure SnO₂ has proven very difficult to densify. This poor densification can be useful for the fabrication of SnO₂ with a porous microstructure, which is used in electronic devices such as gas sensors. Most electronic devices based on SnO₂ have a porous microstructure, with a porosity of > 40%. In pure SnO₂, a high sintering temperature of approximately 1300℃ is required to obtain > 40% porosity. In an attempt to reduce the required sintering temperature, the present study investigated the low-temperature sinterability of a current system. With the addition of TiO₂, the compositions of the samples were Sn_1-xTi_xO₂-CoO(0.3wt%)-CuO(2wt%) in the range of x ≤ 0.04. Compared to the samples without added TiO₂, densification was shown to be improved when the samples were sintered at 950℃. The dominant mass transport mechanism appears to be grain-boundary diffusion during heat treatment at 950℃.
