AC PDP(P1asma Display Pane1)s use the mixture of inert gases to generate a discharge inside the display pixels. Impurities such as CO, $CO_2$ and OH inside discharge region may deteriorate the characteristics of PDP operation during long life time of PDP. Electro-negative gas such as CO can cause the sustain pulse amplitude to rise by attaching electrons which will play an important role in the earlier stage of the discharge. MgO film is used to protect the dielectric layer in AC PDP, and is in contact with the free space of display pixel where it is filled with the inert gas mixture. So, MgO film can be a main source of impurities. In this experiment, we observed the change of impurity generation of various MgO films which were deposited by different methods, by using QMS. (quadropole mass spectrometer) The main impurites were $H_2$, CO and $CO_2$. And with the comparison of the TPD (temperature programmed desorption) result, it can be understood that impurity gases are generated by sputtering of MgO surface not by outgassing. Deposition method had effects on the characteristics of the impurity generation. The MgO film manufactured by e-beam evaporation generated more amount of impurity gases than the MgO films manufactured by sputtering or ion-plating. And also heat treatment of MgO film after deposition decreased the magnitude of impurity gas generation.

The concentrations of inert gases ($N_2$, Ar, $CO_2$ and He) required to induce the flame instabilities such as swing, rotation, lifted and blow-out were measured in a cup burner nonpremixed flames for $CH_4$ and $C_3H_8$ fuels. Quantitative differences in the extinguishing concentration with fire suppression criteria (i.e. blow-out or onset of flame instability) were also examined. It was found that the difference in extinguishing concentration was increased with the appearance of lifted flame and the low extinguishing performance of inert gaseous. The maximum difference in extinguishing concentration with the suppression criteria was approximately 35% at the highest fuel velocity condition (1.3 cm/s) for the $C_3H_8$-air nonpremixed flame. It can be also expected that the extinguishing concentration by the criteria based on the onset of flame instability will provide the useful information from the viewpoint of the accurate and economical design concentration.

For CFCs and Halons regulated by Montreal Protocol and their alternatives of HFC-23, HFC-125 HFC-227ea, HFC-236fa and the mixtures of inert gases of $Ar, N_2 and CO_2$, the thermodynamic properties of saturated pressure, density, enthalpy and viscosity were compared. In this study, the data from literature were expressed as a function of temperature. Thermodynamic properties of HFC compounds were similar to those of Halon-1301. Inert gas was mainly used as a mixture, but the physical properties of the inert gas does not have the favorable advantages over those of Halon-1301.

Wastes such as shredder dust of disposed vehicles can be decomposed into low calorific flammable gases by Pyrolysis gasification. A stationary electric Power generation using an internal combustion engine fuelled with the waste-pyrolysis gas is an effective way to ease both waste management and energy saving issues. The waste-pyrolysis gas mainly consists of H$_2$, CO, $CO_2$ and $N_2$. The composition and heating value of the gas generated depend on the conversion process and the property of the initial waste. This research analyzed the characteristics of the combustion and the exhaust emissions in a premixed charge spark ignition engine fuelled with several kinds of model gases, which were selected to simulate the pyrolysis-gases of automobile shredder dusts. The influences of the heating value and composition of the fuel were analyzed parametrically. Furthermore, optical analyses of the combustion flame were made to study the influence of the fuel's inert gas on the flame propagation.

A method to measure heating value of natural gas using sound velocity and thermal conductivity is proposed to solve the low heating value issues of imported natural gas in South Korea. Natural gas generally consists of methane, butane, ethane, and inert gases. Heating value changes as the gas material properties, such as density, wobbe index, etc., varies. It is highly important to measure heating values of natural gases accurately because measuring the heating value depends on the given natural gases' components. Therefore, sound velocity and thermal conductivity is measured to estimate indirectly heating value of Natural gas with their changed components.

This paper represents a new type low power High Frequency technological ion source (HF TIS) for ion - beam processing: the surface modification of materials, cleaning of surface, sputtering, coating of thin films, and polishing. The operational principle of HF TIS is based on the excitation of electrostatic waves in plasma located in the external magnetic field. Low power HF TIS with diameter 92 rom gives the opportunity to obtain beams of inert and chemically reactive gases with currents range from 5 to 150 mA (current density $0.015\;~\;3.5\;mA/\textrm{m}^2$) and ion beam energy 100 ~ 2500 eV at a HF power level 10 ~ 150 W. Three grid concave type ion optical system (IOS) is used for extraction and formation ofion beam.n beam.

Ignition energy effects of concentration of mixed gas In closed cylindrical vessel(1, 832㎤) are studied. The ignition energy ranged from 25 Joule to 110 Joule, and hidrogen and methane gases were used for flammable gas at stoichiometric condition with oxygen gas and nitrogen gas (N2) was for inert gas, which concentration was maximum 60% . The explosion pressure, temperature, concentration of product gases were calculated. It is found that - The explosion pressure and explosion velocity increase with ignition energy. - The gradience of explosion velocity with ignition energy is steeper than explosion pressure. - The results of calculation are similiar with results of experiment. - NOx is not serious product gas for methane and hydrogen gas, but CO is serious at certain concentration for methane in asphyxiation.

Due to pressure from threatened legislation in Europe, consumer and governmental pressure in Japan, and glob머 market considerations in the US, there is a rapidly growing interest in lead-free solderinger, Although the move to lead free soldering seems inevitable, many problems will arise in production assembly. It is generally acknowledged that the lead-free solders available offer a much s smaller process window than lead/tin, related mainly to the higher soldering temperatures which naturally result from increases of liquidus temperatures of at least 300 C. However, raising reflow temperatures from the current 220-2300 C to 250 2600 C will lead to problems with the boards and components as well as i increasing oxidation effects. There is a need to keep reflow temperatures low without reducing solderablity. Some results on benefits of inert atmospheres are discussed in this paper. For example, testing in a nitrogen atmosphere, with 300 ppm oxygen, by the N National Physical Laboratory (NPU has revealed clear benefits for ine$\pi$mg lead-free alloys, by restoring the solderability to lead/tin levels, by enabling lower soldering temperatures. However, there has been little testing over a range of oxygen levels in nitrogen and this is an important issue in determining n nitrogen supply and oven costs. Some results are reported here from work by NPL conducted for BOC in w which solderability was evaluated for tin기ead and tin/silver/copper eutectic a alloys in a wetting balance over a range of oxygen levels form 10 ppm to 21% ( (air). The studies confirm that acceptable wetting times occur in inert atmospheres a at soldering temperatures 20 to 300 C lower than are possible in air.

For the inert gases of Ar, $N_2$and $CO_2$, the empirical equations of the gas mixture were correlated in terms of saturated pressure, density and viscosity. They were obtained by regression analysis based on the mixing rule. The empirical equation of saturated pressure was assumed as the first order function of temperature. The empirical form of density was expressed as compressibility factor and saturated pressure while the empirical equation of viscosity was formulated as a power function of temperature. This empirical equations of the physical properties were obtained in the composition of Ar, $N_2$and $CO_2$, 40/50/10(mol. %).

Thermally-driven effusion of inert gases out from Si(100), into which energetic $\~l keV\;He^+,\;Ne^+,\;A^r+,\;and\;Kr^+ ions$ had been implanted at a moderate substrate temperatures of $\~400 K$, was investigated by means of temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) mass spectrometry. While He effused out broadly over $500\~1,100 K$, Ne, Ar, and Kr effusion occurred sharply at 810, 860, and 875 K, respectively. Hydrogen adsorption/desorption analysis for the ion-treated Si(100) surfaces indicated minimal to severe damage by ions with increasing mass from He to Kr. Implications of these results in light of literature reports are discussed.
