ZZFCa sorbents for hot gas desulfurization in IGCC were prepared by adding calcium oxide to ZZF sorbent in order to improve its attrition resistance in this study. ASTM attrition test for the sorbent was performed at several different weight percentages of CaO to investigate the attrition characteristics of ZBFCa sorbents as a function of CaO content. Attrition index of ZZF without CaO was 28.3% and its collected attrition index was 10.8％. ZZFCa-3 containing 3 wt% CaO showed the lowest attrition index (AI=17.3％, CAI=8.8％) in the test. From the results of SEM morphologies and particle size distribution measurements, ZZFCa-3 maintained a fine shape and a desirable average particle size even after attrition test. In the experiments of sulfidation/regeneration for ZZFCa-3 sorbent concentration of hydrogen sulfide in coal gas was lowered from 10000 ppm to below 1 ppm. Sulfur removing capacity was about 28.8 g S/100 g sorbent. Neither formation of CaSO$_4$ was observed in XRD measurement nor SO$_2$ slippage was observed during sulfidation process.

This study analyzes a correlation between water content values and chemical index of alteration (CIA) for coarse sedimentary rocks of Mt. Cheonsaeng in Gumi-si, Kyeongsangbuk-do. Through measurement of various water values of 20 samples including water content rate, water absorption rate and equipment measuring we comparatively analyzed the values with CIA of the samples obtained by X-ray fluorescence. As a result of analysis water content rate and water absorption rate in a sedimentary rock are likely to be higher when matrix is psephitic and less compact. Furthermore the higher water content rate is, the higher CIA is due to increase of $SiO_2$ and $Al_2O_3$ and decrease of CaO and $Na_2O$ derived by chemical weathering of felspar. This correlation between water content rate and CIA represents a similar result with previous studies targeting granite.

To understand the effects of Cd substitution for Cu, $(Pb_{0.5}Cu_{0.5-x}Cd_x)Sr_2(Ca_{0.7}Y_{0.3})Cu_2O_z$ (x = 0 ~ 0.5) compounds were synthesized and the structural and superconducting properties of the compounds were characterized. Resistivity data revealed that superconducting transition temperature rises initially up to x = 0.25 and then decreases as the Cd doping content increases. Room-temperature thermoelectric power decreases at first up to x = 0.25 and then increases with higher Cd doping content, indicating that the change in $T_c$ is mainly caused by the change in the hole concentration on the superconducting planes by the Cd doping. The non-monotonic dependence of the lattice parameters and the transition temperature with Cd doping content is discussed in connection with the possible formation of $Pb^{+2}$ ions and the removal of excess oxygen caused by Cd substitution in the charge reservoir layer. A correlation between transition temperature and c/a lattice parameter ratio was observed for the $(Pb_{0.5}Cu_{0.5-x}Cd_x)Sr_2(Ca_{0.7}Y_{0.3})Cu_2O_z$ system.

$(Ba_{1-x}Sr_{0.4}Ca_x)TiO_{3}$ (x=0.10, 0.15, 0.20) powders were prepared by the sol-gel method and BSCT thick films were fabricated by the screen-printing method. Their structural and dielectric properties were investigated with variation of composition ratio and $Al_{2}O_{3}$ doping contents. As results of the X-ray diffraction and microstructure analysis, the grain size of BSCT thick films was decreased with increasing $Al_{2}O_{3}$ amount. The thickness of BSCT thick films by 4-coating/drying is about $110{\sim}120{\mu}m$. The tunability increased with decreasing Ca content, and the BSCT(50/40/10) specimen doped with 1.0wt% $Al_{2}O_{3}$ showed the highest value of 12.94% at 5kV /cm.

Oxygen equilibrium and the solubility of MgO have been measured in the $CaO-Fe_tO-MgO-SiO_2({\leq}5mass%)-{\Sigma}M_xO_y$ slag in equilibrium with liquid iron in the temperature range of 1550 to $1700^{\circ}C$. The effect of oxides on the MgO solubility, and a method for calculating the solubility of MgO using slag composition and temperature,were discussed. The solubility of MgO is increased with increasing temperature and $Fe_tO$ content, and with decreasing basicity (C/S). The effect of ${\Sigma}M_xO_y$ on the solubility of MgO is a dilution effect due to the increase in slag volume. The activity and activity coefficient of $Fe_tO$ decreased with increasing basicity (B). The effect of temperature on the activity was negligible. The value of ${\rho}=Fe^{3+}/Fe^{2+}$ increased with the increase of the slag basicity (B") and the decrease of the $Fe_tO$ content in the slag.

In a previous study, the total phenolic content in ethanol extracts of medicinal plants that naturally grow on Jeju Island were analyzed with the extracts of Raphiolepsis indica leaf found to have the highest. The current study was carried out to evaluate the total flavonoid content, radical-scavenging activity, and the protective effect of R. indica extracts and solvent fractions on oxidative stress in HaCaT keratinocytes. More specifically, total flavonoid content and 2-azino-bis 3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) radical-scavenging activity were measured to assess anti-oxidative activity, and protective effects against hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) were determined by 3-[4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay on the HaCaT cells. Of the various fractions analyzed, the ethyl acetate extract of R. indica showed the highest total flavonoid content (149.13 mg/g extracts) and the lowest remaining ABTS. In addition, the ethyl acetate fraction was significantly more resistant against H₂O₂ than the negative control. Our results therefore suggest that an ethyl acetate fraction of R. indica protects HaCaT cells against oxidative stress and could prove useful for developing functional cosmetic materials.

Microwave dielectric properties of $(Pb_{0.2}Ca_{0.8})[(Ca_{1/3}Nb{2/3})_{1-x}Ti_x]O_3$ ceramics were investigated as a function of $Ti^{4+}$ content (0.05$\leq$x$\leq$0.35). A single perovskite phase was obtained from x=0.05 to x=0.15, and $TiO_2$ and $CaNb_2O^6$ were detected as a secondary phase beyond x=0.2. The structure was changed from orthorhombic at x=0.05 to cubic at x=0.35. Dielectric constant(K) was increased with increase of $Ti^{4+}$ content due to increase of rattling effect, and was inversely proportional to the cube of the average radius of B-site cation, however, Qf value was decreased, which was due to the decrease of grain size and the secondary phase. With the increase of $Ti^{4+}$ content, the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency(TCF) was controlled from -27.36 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ value to +18.4 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ value, which was caused by the influence of tolerance factor(t) and the bond valence of B-site. Typically, K of 51.67, Qf of 7268(GHz), TCF of 0 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ were obtained in the $(Pb_{0.2}Ca_{0.8})[(Ca_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{0.8}Ti_0.2]O_3$ sintered at 13$50^{\circ}C$ for 3h.

The purpose of this study is development of technique to use cementitious powder as recycle cement produced from deteriorated Concrete waste which has a large quantity of calcium carbonate. Therefore, after having theoretical consideration based on the properties of hish-heated concrete and concerning about neutralization of Concrete, we analysis chemical properties of ingredients of cementitious powder After making origin cement paste, then processing the accelerated carbonation, we consider the properties of hydration and chemical properties of cementitious powder under various temperature conditions As a result of the thermal analysis, the CacO3 content of cementitious powder would affect decision of heat temperature to recover its hydrated ability because CacO3 content is increased when neutraliTation is preBlessed. And as a result of XRD analysis. in case of origin powder of non-neutralized paste, CaO peak is found at $700^{\circ}C$. but, heat temperature to generate CaO would increase when the content of neutralized ingredients is increased. Finally, recycle cement heated at $700^{\circ}C$ shows the best compressive strength when the content of neutralized ingredients in recycle cement is less then 50%. However, it would be quite difficult to manage quality of recycle cement according to recycling points of various concrete waste.

$SiO_2$ and CaO are added to decrease the smelting temperature in the reduction-smelting method for manganese nodule processing. These elements are components of the manganese nodules and might be very important controlling factors in the processing due to the locally variable content. The 707 chemical data of manganese nodules acquired from 1994 to 2001 in KODOS(Korea Deep Ocean Survey) area were used for the hierarchical cluster analysis. The chemical data were classified by the morphological types, and the averages of the chemical data for each station were classified by the facies groups and the localities. All data are plotted on the $SiO_2-CaO-MnO$ phase diagram at $1773^{\circ}K$ to compare with the best compositional area in the nodule smelting. Variations and distributions of $SiO_2$ and CaO in KODOS nodules were also reviewed. The mineral phases assigned by the cluster analysis are CFA(Carbonate Fluorapatite), Fe-oxide, Al-silicate, and Mn-oxide. MnO contents are generally higher than $SiO_2$ contents in most of the morphological types except for the Is- and It-type. The Dt- and Tt-type show wider range and the E-types show high anomaly in their CaO contents. The stations which belong to facies group A and B show generally higher MnO contents than $SiO_2$ contents, however, the stations of facies group C and D show wide range in their MnO and $SiO_2$ contents. It seems to be very important to control the $SiO_2$ contents in the processing because of the wide range in the northern area. The additions of approximately 10 wt.% CaO and 10 wt.% $SiO_2$ are recommended for the northern area, whereas, the additions of approximately 10 wt.% CaO and 20 wt.% $SiO_2$ are recommended for the southern area.
