We present nondestructive characterization for remanent life of advanced ferritic steels, next-gen energy facility materials by reversible permeability. The reversible permeability is based on the theory that the value of reversible permeability is the same differential of the hysteresis loop. The measurement principle is based on the foundation of harmonics voltage induced in a sensing coil using a lock-in amplifier tuned to the frequency of the exciting one. The peak interval of reversible permeability(PIRP), Vickers hardness, and tensile strength(TS) of the aged samples decreased with aging time. We could estimate the remanent life of advanced ferritic steel by using the relationship between the peak interval of reversible permeability and Larson-Miller parameter(LMP), non-destructively.

Pore structures of Alkoxide-derived aluminas are investigated by BET Nitrogen Sorption method. Aluminas are derived from hydrolysis of aluminum isopropoxide at 3$^{\circ}$and 8$0^{\circ}C$ with stoichiometric quantities of water in use. The resulting hydrolysates are then subjected to thermal treatment for a fixed period of time from 200$^{\circ}$to 50$0^{\circ}C$ in gradual fashions. The hydrolysates obtained at 3$^{\circ}C$ increase their pore volumes with increasing heat treatment, exhibiting their pore-size distributio as twinpeaked. In contrast, the reverse is true to the hydrolysates obtained at 8$0^{\circ}C$, showing their pore size distribution as single-peaked. This suggests that the pore shapes of the former shall be slit-shaped, whilst whose as the latter shall be of a ink-bottle shape. All the evidence indicates that the hydrolytic temperatures play an important role not only in determining the pore shapes of the alumina samples, but in controlling the liberation of structural water in the alumina layers. It is also, surmized that the subsequent heat treatment may at best affect the mode of pore size distribution for the resulting alumina product(s).

A floating type of memristor emulator which acts like the behavior of $TiO_2$ memristor has been developed. Most of existing memristor emulators are grounded type which is built disregarding the connectivity with other memristor or other devices. The developed memristor emulator is a floating type whose output does not need to be grounded. Therefore, the emulator is able to be connected with other devices and be utilized for the interoperability test with various other circuits. To prove the floating function of the proposed memristor emulator, a Wheatstone bridge is built by connecting 4 memristor emulators in series and parallel. Also this bridge circuit suggest that it is possible to weight calculation of the neural network synapse.

An abrasive, calcium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate (DCPD), was synthesized in a Box-wilson experimental design by reactions between phosphoric acid and milk of lime, and calcium chloride and sodium phosphate solutions, and stabilized with TSPP and TMP. The optimum conditions for preparation of DCPD from phosphoric acid with milk of lime were such as; reaction temp.; $51.9^{\circ}C$, conc. of lime; 25.9%, conc. of phosphoric acd; 77.9%, drying temp.; $60.2^{\circ}C$ and final pH; 6.46. The physico-chemical and pharmaceutical properties of DCPD were showed as follows: glycerin absorption value(68 ml/100g), whiteness(99.5%), particle size(10.9 nm), pH(7.8), and set test(pass). XRD and SEM of DCPD indicated a monoclinic system crystallographically. $N_2$ adsorption isotherm curve by BET showed non porous type II form. The micromeritic parameters of DCPD showed that surface area was $3.27{\sim}4.6\;cm^{2}/g$ and pore volume, pore area and pore radius were negligible. The rheogram of the toothpaste containing DCPD showed pseudoplastic flow with yield value of 321, and thixotropic behavior forming hysteresis loop. These results meet the requirements as abrasive standard, and sythesized DCPD is expected as a good dental abrasive such as a high quality grade in practice.

Ferroelectric properties of $SrBi_2TaNbO_9$ (SBTN) thin films were changed by the amount of Bi content in SBTN. We suggested that the addition of excess Bi into the films could be accomplished by heat-treating $SBTN/Bi_2O_3/SBTN$ heterostructure fabricated by r.f. magnetron sputtering method. Excess Bi composition was controlled by the thickness of the sandwiched $Bi_2O_3$ from 0 to $400\;\AA$. When the SBTN thin films were inserted by $400\;{\AA}\;Bi_2O_3$ layer, $Bi_2Pt$ phase was formed as a second phase in SBTN films, resulting in poor ferroelectric properties. The onset temperature for hysteresis loop can be reduced by heat treating $SBTN/Bi_2O_3/SBTN$ heterostructure. The films with $SBTN/Bi_2O_3(100\;{\AA})/SBTN$ hetero-structure followed by annealing at $650^{\circ}C$ for 30 min show 2Pr and Ec of $5.66\;{\mu}C/\textrm{cm}^2$ and 54 kV/cm, respectively.

$Zn_{1-x}\;^{57}Fe_xO(x=0.01, 0.02, 0.03)$ compounds were fabricated using the solid-state reaction method. In order to determine magnetic behavior and ionic state of the doped transition metal ($^{57}Fe$) in ZnO, we carried out $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$ measurements at various temperatures ranging from 13 to 295 K. $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$spectra for $Zn_{0.97}\;^{57}Fe_{0.03}O$ at 4.2 K have shown the ferromagnetic phase (sextet), but the only paramagnetic phase (doublet) is seen at 295 K. The hysteresis loop below 77 K for $Zn_{0.97}\;^{57}Fe_{0.03}O$ indicated the coexistence of ferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases.

Magnetic bias phenomena of field-annealed CoFeSiB amorphous ribbons showing asymmetric giant magnetoimpedance was investigated by MOKE method. The specimens removed the crystalline layer at one surface side by chemical etching were prepared and measured magnetization curves by MOKE to investigate the effect of the crystalline layer on magnetization of inner soft amorphous phase. We observed the shift of hysteresis loop, and concluded that the crystalline layer exerts bias field effect on inner soft amorphous phase and the direction of bias filed is opposite to the magnetization direction of surface crystalline layer.

In this study, heavy rare earth garnet $Tb_2Bi_1Ga_1Fe_4O_{12}$ powders were fabricated by a sol-gel and vacuum annealing process. The crystal structure was found to be single-phase garnet with a space group of Ia3d. The lattice constant $a_0$ was determined to be 12.465 ${\AA}$. From the analysis of the vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) hysteresis loop at room temperature, the saturation magnetization and coercivity of the sample are 7.64 emu/g and 229 Oe, respectively. The N$\acute{e}$el temperature($T_N$) was determined to be 525 K. The M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectrum of $Tb_2Bi_1Ga_1Fe_4O_{12}$ at room temperature consists of 2 sets of 6 Lorentzians, which is the pattern of single-phase garnet. From the results of the M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectrum at room temperature, the absorption area ratios of Fe ions on 24d and 16a sites are 74.7% and 25.3%(approximately 3:1), respectively. These results show that all of the non-magnetic Ga atoms occupy the 16a site by a vacuum annealing process. Absorption area ratios of Fe ions are dependent not only on a sintering condition but also on the temperature of the sample. It can then be interpreted that the Ga ion distribution is dependent on the temperature of the sample. The M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer measurement was carried out in order to investigate the atomic migration in $Tb_2Bi_1Ga_1Fe_4O_{12}$.

Magaldrate. an antiacid was synthesized by reacting magnesium oxide, aluminum sulfate, and dried aluminum hydroxide gel. The optimum synthesis conditions based on the yield of t he product were established by applying Box-Wilson experimental design. It was found that the optimum synthesis conditions of Magaldrate were as follows: Reaction temperature; 61~$85{\circ}C$, concentration of two reactants. Mgo and $Al(OH)_3$: 16~19.8%, molar concentration ratio of two reactants, [MgO]/[$Al(OH)_3$]; 4.2~5.0, temperature of washing water; 36~$41^{\circ}C$ and drying temperature of the product: 76~$80^{\circ}C$. Magaldrate was synthesized under the optimum synthesis conditions and identified by analyzing the chemical composition, and by differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction method. The Magaldrate sample synthesis under these conditions was used to prepare 15.6% Magaldrate original suspension which was utilized to make 13% Magaldrate suspension dispered in various concentrations of eight types of suspending agents. The acid-neutralizing capacity of 13% Magaldrate suspension dispersed in 0.25% suspending agents was examined by Rosset-Rice method. The maximum pH was reached within 1 minute in all suspension tested, and duration maintained between pH 3~5 was decreased in the order of Na alginate Na silicate(meta) Veegum HV pectin agar>Na>CMC>xanthan gum>bentonite. It was found that the hysteresis loop area was increased with temperature in the case of Riopan Plus and the addition of agar, whereas the area was decreased with temperature in the case of the addition of Na alginate and xanthan gum. 13% Magaldrate suspension tends to sediment by the addition of bentonite.

With the object of developing a non-gap choke core, effects of annealing in oxygen atmosphere on magnetic properties for Fe$_{78}$Si$_{9}$B$_{13}$ amorphous alloy were investigated. After annealing for 2 hrs at 440 $^{\circ}C$, optimum magnetic properties for choke core were obtained, where the effective permeability was 180 and was almost constant up to several MHz, and the decrease in permeability upon large DC bias current of 12 A or DC bias magnetic field of 8,000 A/m was very little. Moreover the AC magnetic loss was very low as compared to the conventional choke cores. Upon the optimum annealing, the magnetic hysteresis loop was inclined accompanying the increase of coercive force and the appearance of fine crystallites of $\alpha$-Fe phase. The good choke core properties was considered to be due to the suppression of domain boundary motion and domain refinement by the crystallites.
