The structure and mechanical properties of the extruded specimens were investigated in rapid solidified Al-(1, 3, 5) Cr alloys after mechanical alloying. Finer lamellar microstructure could no longer be resolved in the bars obtained by extrusion of the spherical particles after 200 min. of processing time. The structure of extruded bars are highly depended on the processing time of splats. The isothermal annealing of the extruded bars showed that all the alloys had good thermal stability up to $400^{\circ}C$ and did not show the recrystallization phenomena. Severe working of Al-(1, 3, 5) Cr splats produced a very fine grain size and substructural strengthening (high dislocation density and fine grain size). Effects of mechanical alloying on the thermal stability of the extruded bars Al-(1, 3, 5) Cr alloys decreases, with increasing Cr content. But the ultimate tensile Strength in the extruded bars increases with increasing Cr content.

Mineral filler is used for resin compounds, because it increases the stiffness and thermal stability of a resin compound, and it also cuts down the cost. Calcium carbonate, silica, magnesium oxide, and others are used as filler materials in general, and the type of filler material, the size, and content can affect the physical properties of compounds. Those factors also influence the viscosity of resin mixtures and the workability, and should be adjusted by changing the contents of the filler, which depends on the size. In this study, five kinds of ground calcium carbonate, which were different in size, were used to produce polyester compounds ; the physical properties were compared with the filler size and contents. The mechanical properties were measured by bending strength and tensile strength, and the heat deflection temperature was obtained for thermal stability.

In an attempt to develop the immobilized biocatalysts based on immobilized Saccharomyces cerevisiae, immobilized yeast was investigated with respect to the conditions affected to ethanol productivities. Saccharomyces cerevisiae was immobilized in the form of the beads by magnetic-calcium alginate, non magnetic-calcium alginate and acrylamide polymerization. Magnetic immobilized yeast, nonmagnetic immobilized yeast and polyacrylamide immobilized yeast were compared in respect of their pH stability, thermostability, heat tolerance, the relation between the concetration of native yeast and retained activity of immobilized yeast, the activity depending on bead size of immobilized yeast, and the effects of magnesium and cobalt on the activities. The more small bead had retained the higher activity for the three kinds of immobilized yeast. In case of 1.0mm diameter of beads, the retained activity was 40~50% for the all groups. The pH stability profile for the immobilized yeast showed a broad range of optimun activity while the native yeast gave a sharp pick for its optimun pH value. The thermostability was at the range of 25~55$^{\circ}$C for the immobilized yeast groups. It was investigated that the influent magnesium and cobalt concentration, and the relative activity have an influent on heat tolerance at steady state. Both protein content released from immobilized yeast and activity of immobilized yeast were changed after activation of immobilized yeast cell.

In this article, $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were synthesized by using $O_2$-enriched coflow, hydrogen, diffusion flames. We investigated the thermal stability of the flame-synthesized $TiO_2$ nanoparticles by examining the crystalline structures of the nanoparticles. Also, the results were compared with those of commercial P-25 nanoparticles. $TiO_2$ nanoparticles, which were spherical with diameters approximately ranging from 30 to 60nm, were synthesized. From the XRD analyses, about 96wt% of the synthesized nanoparticles were anatase-phase. After the heat-treatment at $800^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes, the synthesized $TiO_2$ nanoparticles showed no significant changes of their shapes and crystalline phases. On the other hand, most of the commercial particles sintered with each other and changed to the rutile-phase. Based on the result of XRD analysis it is believed that the flame-synthesized $TiO_2$ nanoparticles have higher thermal stability at $800^{\circ}C$ than the commercial particles.

This paper describes the heat resistance characteristics of the imaging device installed in behind the engine due to monitoring the engine condition, and this paper includes the introduction and development of the imaging probe. Because the imaging device which is at the rear end of the engine is exposed to a high temperature and high pressure, the stability of the device should be secured by changing the device shape and supplying cooling water. The imaging probe in ADD engine test facility is installed at the rear end of the engine, and it is designed by reflecting the heat resistance characteristics to ensure the stability of the device.

To evaluate the effect of lobed structure on pollutant emission, an experimental study examines NOx and CO emissions associated with four burner geometries, such as a conventional circular burner and three lobed ones. Rapid mixing allowed by the lobed burner to produce lean premixed flames, with narrower flame stability diagram than for the conventional circular one. Conventional circular burner of wide and uniform burner rim has an advantage of flame stabilization. Correlation on fuel discharge velocity for flame blowout should be included a variable related to the wall effect of the burner. NOx emission reduces by about 5% at the burner with lobed structure in fuel discharge side compared to conventional circular one. This is due to lower flame temperatures through flame elongation and increased radiative heat losses, caused by partially luminous flame in flame front. Meanwhile, at the burner with lobed structure in air discharge side and both fuel and air discharge sides, NOx emission somewhat increases with reduced radiative heat losses in spite of flame elongation. Therefore, the rapid mixing by lobed structure does not always have an advantage on NOx reduction.

Air-cooling method is adopted on the basis of the requirements for the thermal stability and convenient field use of an electrical source transmitter. The power losses of the transmitter are determined after calculating the losses of the alternating current (AC)-direct current (DC) power supply, the constant-current circuit, and the output circuit. According to the analysis of the characteristics of a heat sink with striped fins and a fan, the engineering calculation expression of the Nusselt number and the design process for air-cooled dissipation are proposed. Experimental results verify that the error between calculated and measured values of the transmitter losses is 12.2%, which meets the error design requirements of less than 25%. Steady-state average temperature rise of the heat sink of the AC-DC power supply is $22^{\circ}C$, which meets the design requirements of a temperature rise between $20^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$. The transmitter has favorable thermal stability with 40 kW output power.

Tribological behavior of novolac resin-based friction materials with three different relative amounts of graphite and zirconium silicate was investigated by using a pad-on-disk type friction tester. The goal of this paper is to examine the effects of the relative amount of a lubricant and an abrasive in the automotive friction material on friction and wear characteristics at elevated temperature. Friction and wear of friction materials were affected by the existence of transfer film(3$\^$rd/ body layer) at friction interface and the composition of friction material, especially lubricant amount. The friction material with higher content of graphite indicated homogenized and durable transfer film, and resulted in stable friction coefficient regardless of the increase in friction heat. The experimental result also showed that the higher concentration of ZrSiO$_4$ in friction material aggravated friction stability and wear resistance due to the higher friction heat generated at fiction interface during high temperature friction test.

The stainless steel wire is extensively used for the orthodontic treatment. But, the stainless steel wire that has commonly superior corrosion resistance has caused hypersensitive reaction or allergy as side effects because of corrosion in the oral environment. For improving the problem of corrosion, we was evaluated the suitability of the duplex stainless steel(DSS) as orthodontic wire through this study. The DSS wire was evaluated the mechanical strength and bio-stability for suitability and bio-compatibility as orthodontic wire. In this work, the DSS and stainless steel(SS) as common use of medical grade were prepared for the tensile strength test. The DSS wire were treated by heat. and Temperature conditions of the heat treatment were $28^{\circ}C$, $500^{\circ}C$, $600^{\circ}C$, $700^{\circ}C$, $800^{\circ}C$, $900^{\circ}C$, respectively. And the DSS wires that treated by heat on the optimum temperature condition were conducted the bending moment test and calculated the S-Max value and the modulus of elasticity. For evaluating the bio stability, each materials were conducted in vitro test for measuring the cell survival rate. The most interesting results was that the tensile strength test of SS wire($8.17\times10^4\;N/mm^2$) and DSS wire($8.05\times10^4\;N/mm^2$) that treated at $500^{\circ}C$ by heat were similar in mechanical strength. In the bio-stability study, the DSS has no cytotoxicity (p=0.05) Thus, we could make a conclusion that the duplex stainless steel wire has vastly superior corrosion resistance was suitable as orthodontic wire.

This study was conducted to investigate the possibility of spontaneous ignition in Butadiene popcorn polymer, which is used as raw material and product in a chemical plant. A component analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, thermal stability analysis, spontaneous ignition point measurement and accelerated velocity calorimetric analysis were performed. As a result of analysis, various kinds of flammable components were measured and thermogravimetric analysis showed a weight loss of 95.6% in air and 89.2% in nitrogen. As a result of the thermal stability analysis, heat generation started at $88^{\circ}C$ in the air atmosphere, and the heat generation rate increased sharply in the vicinity of the natural ignition point ($220^{\circ}C$). The heat generation started at about $70^{\circ}C$ in nitrogen atmosphere, and the two exothermic peak values were observed up to $450^{\circ}C$. As a result of accelerated rate calorimetry, there was no exothermic phenomenon, and the lowest ignition temperature was $211.7^{\circ}C$ as a result of analysis of natural ignition point. Based on the results obtained from the thermal stability evaluation, it is considered that the possibility of inducing the thermal deformation of the column by the heat of reaction is sufficient.
