It was investigated whether mechanical alloying (MA) processing could be more effective to the formation of metallic composite powder in Cu-C system. Elemental powder mixtures of Cu-70vo1.%C were mechanically alloyed with an attritor in an argon atmosphere and microstructural evolution was examined by X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. It has been found that even with the high volume fraction of immiscible graphite in Cu-C system, the refinement with a few ten nanometer size as well as the highly uniform distribution of copper phases have been achieved by the MA processing.

Five sandwiched multilayers consisting of PBT(Polybutyleneterephthalate), PS(Polystyrene) and clay were prepared to investigate the migration mechanism of clay in the polymer blend system. Rheometry (RMS800) was used to apply well-defined shear on the above multilayer samples in order to well understand dominant factors controlling the migration. Applied shear force was enough to move clay tactoids to the interface, if either long time or high shear was available, but it was not sufficient to separate into individual platelets of clay. The morphology evolution was subsequently studied in term of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), respectively.

Olefinic compatibilized blend(R-PP/R-PE)/layered silicate composites have been prepared by melt intercalation technique directed from $Na^{+}$ montmorillonite(MMT) or organophilic montmorillonites while using magnesium hydroxide as flame retardant. Morphology and flammability properties were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD), transmission electron microscopy(TEM), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), thermogravimetry analysis(TGA), limiting oxygen index(LOI), UL94 test. It is found that the compatibilized blend/layered silicate(Cloisite 20A) nanocomposites have a mixed immiscible-intercalated structure and there is better intercalation when a compatibilizer is combined with the polymer and layered silicate to be melt blended. A very large increase in the LOI value was observed with hybrid filler addition and further enhancement in thermal stability and compatibility of blend was obtained for the compatibilized blend containing small amount of layered silicate.

Cotton fabric was deed with a reactive dye in water/dichloromethane two-phase immiscible solvent media. In order to minimize dye loss due to its hydrolysis, the reactive dyeing was carried out in dichloromethane containing a small amount of water. With only 2ml of water in 23m1 of dichloromethane, 1.0g of cotton fabric could be dyed perfectly. The uptake ratio was increased greatly, compared with that of normal reactive dyeing in a waters medium. It would seem that the one of hydrophobic solvents, dichloromethane, can assist the eden dyeing as it disperses a small amount of dye-dissolved water phase and conveys this water phase to the fabric entirely and uniformly.

The properties of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET)/maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene (MAgPP)/poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride)(PScMA) ternary blend were investigated. The ternary blend was immiscible based on the glass transition temperatures measured by dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA). The degradation of MAgPP during melt mixing for 30 min at 280$^{\circ}C$ did not affect the properties of the ternary blend. The interaction among the components was confirmed from the rheological properties, which was increased with the PSCMA contents. In terms of the mechanical properties, it was observed to satisfy the mixture rule for a multiple system.

In this study, we present the evaluation chart for assessing the applicability of $CO_2$ flooding method to oil reservoirs. The evaluation chart consists of four categories as source availability, miscibility, applicability and injecting method of miscible flooding. The applicability of reservoir and oil in the chart has basic items of the properties such as oil gravity, viscosity, oil saturation, reservoir temperature and permeability, and these are quantitatively graded. Meanwhile, for additional items of $CO_2$ purity, reservoir thickness and formation dip, they are graded as "highmediumlow". In the case of evaluating the injection method of either continuous injection or WAG ($CO_2$), the qualitative decision will be made according to formation dip, vertical permeability, reservoir thickness, etc. The recommended score in the chart was assigned by utilizing 51 oil producing fields which $CO_2$ flooding is successfully being applied. The evaluation chart developed in this work has been applied to the Captain oil producing field located in Scotland as well as to the Onado oil field of Venezuela, which Korean oil companies have participated in. For the Captain field, the reservoir quality in terms of permeability and porosity is considered to be very excellent to flow the oil. The oil in captain field contains heavier component of $C_{21+}$ as 54%. Therefore, this heavy oil could be immiscibly displaced, hence the evaluating result with the basis of immiscible criteria shows that $CO_2$ immiscible flooding in this field could be properly applied. In the case of Onado oil producing field, since the estimated minimum miscibility pressure is lower than the reservoir pressure, it was assessed that the Onado field would be efficiently conducted for $CO_2$ miscible flooding.

Since the IB (Immersed Boundary) method, which can perform coupling analysis with objects and fluids having an impermeable boundary of arbitrary shape on a fixed grid system, has been developed, the IB method in various CFD models is increasing. The representative IB methods are the directing-forcing method and the ghost cell method. The directing-forcing type method numerically satisfies the boundary condition from the fluid force calculated at the boundary surface of the structure, and the ghost-cell type method is a computational method that satisfies the boundary condition through interpolation by placing a virtual cell inside the obstacle. These IB methods have a disadvantage in that the computational algorithm is complex. In this study, the simplified immersed boundary (SIB) method enables the analysis of temporary structures on a fixed grid system and is easy to expand to three proposed dimensions. The SIB method proposed in this study is based on a one-field model for immiscible two-phase fluid that assumes that the density function of each phase moves with the center of local mass. In addition, the volume-weighted average method using the density function of the solid was applied to handle moving solid structures, and the CIP method was applied to the advection calculation to prevent numerical diffusion. To examine the analysis performance of the proposed SIB method, a numerical simulation was performed on an object falling to the free water surface. The numerical analysis result reproduced the object falling to the free water surface well.

Phenolic acids are regarded as harmful materials in food and environment science but recently, as useful materials, and thus adsorption is recommended as an effective separation technique to recover or remove phenolic acids from diluted solution. If the adsorbed phenolic compounds were useful materials, the materials should be recovered through desorption. Desorption using supercritical carbon dioxide(SC-$CO_2$) was tried to separate food-borne phenolic acids from charcoal in single solute system. In the comparisons of desorption amounts, gallic acid had the lowest lolubiligy to SC-$CO_2$. Gallic acid has more hydroxy functional groups than the other phenolic acids, which was immiscible with nonpolar SC-$CO_2$. Ferulic acid was yielded more than p-coumaric acid, because ferulic acid had much bigger molecular weight, which was affected more by van der Waas force. It was found that the most affecting factor on desorption amounts was the solubility of phenolic acids to SC-$CO_2$. The second affecting factor was van der Waals force. Response surface methodology(RSM) was conducted to read the trend of desorption. Increasing density of SC-$CO_2$ raised solubility of phenolic acids.

We recently showed from the neutron diffraction and extended X-ray absorption fine structure studies the structural evidence for the formation of an amorphous phase in immiscible Cu-Ta system subjected to mechanical alloying. In a system with a positive heat of mixing like Cu-Ta, we consider it necessary to confirm the formation of an amorphous phase not only from the structural studies but also from a change in the electronic properties. We show the electronic evidence for the formation of the chemical bonding between the unlike atoms Cu and Ta for the 120 h-milling sample through changes in superconducting transition temperature and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy valence band structure.

Single crystals of the compound MeI $(LiMoO_4)$ and $Me^I(LiWO_4)$ ($Me^I=K$, Rb, Cs) were synthesized by slow evaporation from aqueous solution and bycooling from melt. The compounds of potassium or rubidium are hygroscopic and they form easily hydrated crystals $Me^I LiMoO_4$.$H_2O$ or $Me^ILiMoO_4$.$H_2O$ or $Me^ILiWO_4$.$H_2O$ from aqueous solution. The structures of these hydrated crystals are each other isotypic and they are built up of distorted layers of $(LiMoO_5)$ or $(LiWO_5)$. There exist two types of tetrahedral framework structures in this group of anhydrous molybdates and tung-states ; tridymite-type and cristobalite-type. $KLiMoO_4$ and $KLiWO_4$ have two types of polymorphic structures where as only the cristobalite-type is found in the Rb-and Cs-compounds. The system $KLiSO_4-KLiMoO_4$ was studied. Two components are almost immiscible but there eixst a narrow area of solid solution on the side of sulfate in the system.
