Quarternary $Li_2O-B_2O_3-Al_2O_3-SiO_2$ glasses were fabricated by the function of $R({\equiv}Li_2Omole%/B_2O_3mole%)$ and $K({\equiv}(Al_2O_3mole%+SiO_2mole%/B_2O_3mole%)$. The structures of these glasses were investigated through refractive index and Vicker's hardness. The refractive index increased as the increase of the polarizability in the glass network. In the region of low $Li_2O$ content, the refractive index increased due to the increase of the polarizability in the glass network but, in the region of high $Li_2O$ content, the rate of increase of the refractive index decreased due to the increase of the molar volume caused by the formation of $BO_3{^-}$ units with relatively high molar volume. And, the refractive index decreased as the increase of $Al_2O_3+SiO_2$ content with the molar volume in the glass network. The increase and decrease of vicker's hardness values for those glasses depended on the fraction of tetrahedral $BO_4$ units and it of triangle $BO_3{^-}$ units with non-bridging oxygen, respectively.

UV/H_2O_2$, $O_3$, $O_3/H_2O_2$, $UV/H_2O_2/O_3$ processes were tested for the removal of COD and color from terephthalic acid wastewater. COD removal efficiencies were 10, 48, 56, 63% in the $UV/H_2O_2$, $O_3$, $O_3/H_2O_2$, $UV/H_2O_2/O_3$ process respectively. Color removal efficiency of $UV/H_2O_2$ process was 80% and $O_3$, $O_3/H_2O_2$, $UV/H_2O_2/O_3$ processes were almost more than 99%. Terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid and benzoic acid were completely destructed in terephthalic wastewater within 120 min by $UV/H_2O_2/O_3$ process and shows high COD and color removal efficiencies. The optimum concentration of $H_2O_2$ dosage was found to be 0.5 M, 25 mM and 5 mM for $UV/H_2O_2$, $O_3/H_2O_2$ and $UV/H_2O_2/O_3$ processes respectively, Organic destruction efficiency was enhanced and also reducing the consumption of $H_2O_2$ dosage by combining UV, $H_2O_2$ and $O_3$ process.

has been synthesized using the layered organic-inorganic hybrids, Cu2(OH)3(CH3COO)·H2O as a precursor. Cubic Cu2O is synthesized by reducing Cu2(OH)3(CH3COO)·H2O with glucose in water at 75oC. The effects of precursor and glucose are investigated. The structure of Cu2(OH)3(CH3COO)·H2O plays an important role in preparing the uniform size of Cu2O.

Effects of grain size distribution on the breakdown voltage of ZnO varistors were investigated in the ZnO-Bi2O3-CoO-Sb2O3 and ZnO-Bi2O3-CoO-Sb2O3-Cr2O3 systems, respectively. The grain size was increased with increasing sintering temperature maintaining lognormal distribution in both systems. The width of grain size distribution of ZnO-Bi2O3-CoO-Sb2O3 system was narrower than that of ZnO-Bi2O3-CoO-Sb2O3 system. The breakdown voltage(Vb) was decreased by increasing sintering temperature(1000~135$0^{\circ}C$) and sintering time(0.5~5hr), due to the enhancement of ZnO grain growth. The current path of the ZnO varistor was dependent on the distribution of the largest grains (chains of long grains) between the electrodes.

The surge current characteristics of ZnO-$Pr_6O_{11}$-CoO-$Cr_2O_3-Dy_2O_3$-based varistors were investigated with various $Dy_2O_3$ contents. The sintered density decreased in the range of $5.2{\sim}4.6g/cm^3$ with increasing $Dy_2O_3$ content. The incorporation of $Dy_2O_3$ markedly enhanced the nonlinear properties of varistors above 10 times in nonlinear exponent, compared with the varistor without $Dy_2O_3$. The varistor ceramics doped with 0.5 mol% $Dy_2O_3$ exhibited the highest electrical stability. However, the remainder varistors resulted in thermal runaway due to low density of varistor ceramics. The clamping voltage ratio exhibited a minimum value of 2.03 in 1.0 mol% $Dy_2O_3$ at surge current of 100 A(8/20 ${\mu}s$).

The effect of advanced oxidation processes such as $O_3$, $UV/TiO_2$, $O_3/UV$ and $O_3/UV/TiO_2$ on decolorization and COD removal of Rhodamine B(RhB) wastewater were considered. The results showed that the higher the $O_3$ concentration was, the higher the decolorization observed and the optimum $TiO_2$ dosage was 0.4 g/L in $UV/TiO_2$ and $O_3/UV/TiO_2$ process. $O_3/UV$ process showed the higher initial decolorization rate constant and the shorter termination time for decolorization than those of the $O_3$ process. The decolorization rate constants in various systems followed the order of $O_3/UV/TiO_2>O_3/UV>O_3{\gg}UV/TiO_2$. The decolorization rate of the RhB solution in every processes was more rapid than the mineralization rate identified by COD removal. The latter took longer time for further oxidation. The COD removal rate constants in four systems followed the order of $O_3/UV/TiO_2>O_3/UV>UV/TiO_2{\geqq}O_3$. Among four processes, combined photocatalysis and ozonation$(O_3/UV/TiO_2)$ was the most prospective process for removing color and COD such as dye wastewater.

In this study, $In_2O_3-ZnO$ thin films are prepared on quartz substrates by the pulsed laser deposition and their optical and electrical properties are investigated as the function of substrate temperatures ($200{\sim}600^{\circ}C$) at the fixed oxygen pressure of 200 mTorr. The XRD measurement shows that polycrystalline $In_2O_3-ZnO$ thin films are formed. In the XRD measurement, the intensity of the (400) $In_2O_3$ peak at $35.5^{\circ}$ decreases and that of the (222) $In_2O_3$ peak at $30.6^{\circ}$ increases with the increase substrate temperature up to $500^{\circ}C$. From the result of AFM measurement, the morphology of $In_2O_3-ZnO$ thin films are observed as round-type grains. The lowest surface roughness (6.15 nm) is obtained for the $In_2O_3-ZnO$ thin film fabricated at $500^{\circ}C$. The optical transmittance of $In_2O_3-ZnO$ thin films are higher than 82% in the visible region. The maximum carrier concentration of $2.46{\times}10^{20}cm^{-3}$ and the minimum resistivity of $1.36{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}cm$ are obtained also for the $In_2O_3-ZnO$ thin film fabricated at $500^{\circ}C$.

MoSi2-Al2O3 composites were prepared by thermal explosion mode of self-propagating high temperature syn-thesis (SHS) using element powders of MoO3 Mo Si and Al. The combustion products of MoSi2 which have 10, 20, 30 and 40 wt% Al2O3 showed the molten state in the range of Mo to MoO3 6:1-9.5:1, 2:1-8:1, 1:1-5:1, and 1:1-3:1 (molar ratio) respectively. The combustion products which made least seperation the molten phase from the slag phase were in Mo/MoO3=9, 5:1, 8:1, 5:1 and 3:1 (molar ratio) respectively. Particles size of MoSi2 and Al2O3 in the combustion product were decreased as the molar ratio of Mo to MoO3 increase. By XRD analysis only MoSi2 and $\alpha$-Al2O3 peaks were identified in the combusion products, In case of MoSi2 containing 20wt% Al2O3 5.1wt% Al existed into MoSi2 grains and 30.7wt% Si and 7.7wt% Mo existed into Al2O3 grains. The relative density of MoSi2 containing 10, 20, 30 and 40 wt% Al2O3 were 82.7, 85.2, and 81.9% respectively. The fracture strength of MoSi2-Al2O3 composites increased with increasing Al2O3 and that of MoSi2-20wt% Al2O3 composite was 195 MPa.

To study the effects of chemical composition on the fusion temperatures of coal ashes, the chemical composition, mineral matter, and fusion temperature were studied with 54 kinds of coal ash samples including Korean anthracite coals. CaO, MgO and $Fe_2O_3$ were observed to be major fluxing elements in reducing and oxidizing atmosphere. The fluxing effect of $Fe_2O_3$ was increased more in reducing atmosphere. In a base/acid ratio, the fusion temperature decreased with increasing amounts of basic components. Nevertheless, the correlation between a fusion temperature and base/acid ratio was not shown well in a higher ratio of $Fe_2O_3/CaO$. The differences of fusion temperatures between oxidizing and reducing atmosphere showed close relationship with $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$ ratio rather than with $Fe_2O_3$ contents. Multiple regression was used to predict the fusion temperature of coal ashes, and it was established that the major predictors in oxidizing atmosphere were Base/Acid, $Fe_2O_3/CaO$, $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$, and $(SiO_2/A1_2O_3){\cdot}(Base/Acid)$ and Base/Acid, $Fe_2O_3/CaO$, $SiO_2$, and $TiO_2$ were major ones in reducing atmosphere.
