The crystallization behaviours of nanocomposite made by a function of quenching rate (roller speed) were studied. The results showed that there was one step c$\mathbb{r}$ystallization process for the alloy quenched at roller speed of 32 m/s, which could be shown as, Am (amorphouse) + ${\alpha}-Fe/Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ ${\rightarrow}$ ${\alpha}-Fe/Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ . For the alloy quenched at roller speed of 40 m/s, there was steps crystallization process taking place at different temperatures, which could be shown as, Am ${\rightarrow}$ ${\alpha}-Fe/Nd_2Fe_{23}B_3+Nd_2Fe_{14}B+Am`$ ${\rightarrow}$ ${\alpha}-Fe/Nd_2Fe_{14}B$. The presence of transition phase ($Nd_2Fe_{23}B_3$) was harmful to get fine and uniform grain size during crystallization process. Uniform microstructures and high magnetic properties could be attained for the as-quenched alloy containing less amorphous phase and no presence of transition phase during annealing treatment. For the alloy prepared at roller speed of 32 m/s, the following properties were obtained, $B_r= 0.904 T,_iH_c = 801 kA/m, (BH)_{max} = 122 kJ/m^3 and M_r/M_s = 0.6$.

In the study, the effects of $130{\sim}150^{\circ}C$ annealing condition and 1~10 wt% isopropylphenyl diphenyl phosphate (IPPP) on crystallization behavior and flame retardancy of a full name (PLA) film were determined. The crystallization kinetics of PLA films with adding 1, 5, and 10 wt% IPPP at $140^{\circ}C$ were higher than those at 130 and $150^{\circ}C$. The average crystallinity and crystallite size of PLA film with 1 wt% IPPP were 21.3% and 24.8 nm, respectively. With an increasing IPPP content, the crystallinity of PLA film increased and the crystallite size decreased. The burning rate lowered with an increasing IPPP content as well.

We investigated the effects of Al2O3 addition on (1-x)Li2B4O7-xAl2O3 (LBAO; x = 0, 0.005, 0.01, 0.05, 0.07, and 0.1) glasses. The glasses were synthesized by a conventional melt-quench method. Structural transformations of the LBAO glasses were assessed via X-ray diffraction analysis. Estimations of ΔT, KGS = (Tc-Tg)/(Tm-Tc), activation energy, and the Avrami parameter were performed using differential thermal analysis and differential scanning calorimetry. An interpretation of non-isothermal kinetics of the crystallization process is presented using the modified Ozawa equation. The activation energy E increased from 3.3 to 3.5 eV for the LBAO (x < 0.01) glasses whereas those of the LBAO (x > 0.05) glasses slightly increased from 3.75 to 4.05 eV. The exponent n was estimated to be 3.9 ± 0.1 for the LBAO (x < 0.01) glasses and 3.2 ± 0.02 for the LBAO (x > 0.05) glasses. Microstructural characterization of the glassy and crystalline phases using atomic force microscopy was investigated. The effects of Al2O3 on the LBAO glasses include a decreased nucleation rate in the crystallization process and a significantly reduced crystal size.

Hadong Kaolin (Halloysite) was granulated cylindrically and treated with 1N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution for 6-48 hrs at 60-10$0^{\circ}C$. The crystalling structure of surface of the products was studied by X-ray powder diffraction method. The reaction rate of halloysite to sodium A zeolite showed a gradual decrease from surface to inner layer. At the surface layer, the reaction mechanism was observed as first order consecutive reaction as follows: halloysitelongrightarrowamorphous aluminosilicatelongrightarrowsodium A zeolitelongrightarrowhydroxysodalite By applying the above reaction mechanism, the rate constants and activation energies was measured.

Performance extension of the absorption refrigerator with LiBr solution is often faced to operate very close to the crystallization limit. Especially in the development of an air-cooled cycle, the crystallization of working solution in the system is a very difficult problem to overcome. This paper describes the cycle of hot water driven absorption system using a new working absorption solution instead of LiBr solution to improve the efficiency. In this study, we found out the characteristics of new working absorption solution through the cycle simulation and compared LiBr solution to evaluate. The effect of cooling water temperature, weak solution flow rate, hot water temperature and hot water flow rate were also examined. The COP is increased 22% higher in the case of LiBr＋Li1＋LiC1＋LiNO$_3$＋$H_2O$, 2% LiBr＋HO(CH$_2$)$_3$OH＋$H_2O$ than that of LiBr solution for the same operation condition.

High quality polycrystalline silicon is very critical part of the high quality thin film transistor(TFT) for display devices. Metal induced lateral crystallization(MILC) is one of the most successful technologies to crystallize the amorphous silicon at low temperature(below $550^{\circ}C$) and uses conventional and large glass substrate. In this study, we observed that the MILC behavior changed with abrupt variation of the amorphous silicon active pattern width. We explained these phenomena with the novel MILC mechanism model. The 10 nm thick Ni layers were deposited on the glass substrate having various amorphous silicon patterns. Then, we annealed the sample at $550^{\circ}C$ with rapid thermal annealing(RTA) apparatus and measured the crystallized length by optical microscope. When MILC progress from narrow-width-area(the width was $w_2$) to wide-width-area(the width was $w_1$), the MILC rate decreased dramatically and was not changed for several hours(incubation time). Also the incubation time increased as the ratio, $w_1/w_2$, get larger. We can explain these phenomena with the tensile stress that was caused by volume shrinkage due to the phase transformation from amorphous silicon to crystalline silicon.

In this study, we used TIPS (thermally induced phase separation) for the application of water treatment membrane, and observed the change in morphology of separation membrane due to the change of solidification temperature and heat capacity. For manufactured membrane, PVDF and silica with excellent mechanical properties and chemical resistance were used, and DOP (dioctyl phthalate), DBP (dibutyl phthalate) were used as the diluent. Using the SEM (scanning electron microscope), the morphology of each different coagulation solutions of heat capacity change was observed. As the heat capacity increased, the crystallization rate of PVDF was decreased and showed large pore. In contrast, It also confirmed that the smaller heat capacity, the faster the crystallization rate and make smaller pores.

The crystal size was determined as a function of reaction temperature, during the crystallization process of NaX zeolite. The measured rate constants for linear growth were as 0.0441$\mu\textrm{m}$/h at $80^{\circ}C$, 0.0595$\mu\textrm{m}$/h at $90^{\circ}C$ and 0.0972$\mu\textrm{m}$/h at $100^{\circ}C$, respectively. The activation energy calculated from the relation between the linear growth rate an the reaction temperature was 43.243kJ/mol. The reaction of crystal growth were revealed as 20 days at $80^{\circ}C$, 16 days at $90^{\circ}C$ and 9 days at $100^{\circ}C$, respectively. Both the final product crystal size an the crystallization time were decreased with increasing reaction temperature.

A cycle analysis was achieved to predict the characteristics by comprehensive modeling and simulation of an air-cooled, double-effect absorption system using a new $H_2O/LiBr+HO(CH_2)_3OH$ solution. The simulation results showed that the new working fluid may provide the crystallization limit 8% higher than the conventional $H_2O/LiBr$ solution. With a crystallization margin of 3wt%(weight%), the optimal solution distribution ratio was found in the range of 36 to 40%. Variation of cooling air Inlet temperature has a sensitive effect on the cooling COP and corrosion problem. The simulation of heat exchangers with UA value revealed that the absorber and the evaporator are relatively important for an air-cooled system compared with the condenser and the low temperature generator. The effect of cooling air flow rate, circulation weak solution flow rate and chilled water inlet temperature were also examined. The new working fluid may provide the COP approximately 5% higher than the conventional $H_2O/LiBr$ solution.

The crystallization of $Li_2O-SiO_2$ system glasses and the effect of phase separtion to crystal nucleation were studied. The crystallization temperatures of various glasses were determined by DTA and glasses were nucleation heat treated at the temperatures ranging from 45$0^{\circ}C$ to 5$25^{\circ}C$. These glasses were thengown at $700^{\circ}C$ to observable size in the optical microscope. Crystal nucleation rates of various glasses were obtained by estimating the number of crystals per unit volume. The main crystal phase of these glasses identified by X-ray diffraction was lithium disilicate ($Li_2O$.$2SiO_2$). It was found that the crystal nucleation rate of glass (19.5% $Li_2P$-80.5% $SiO_2$), the nearest composition to lithium disilicate, was higher than other glasses. The opalescence caused by phase separation was observed in the nucleation heat treated glass (16.3% $Li_2O$-83.7% $SiO_2$). The result from nucleation density measurement of this glass indicated that the nucleation was enhanced during early stage of phase separation. The molphologies of crystals in glasses and crystal growth rate at $600^{\circ}C$ were also discussed.
