Fifteen soils including volcanic ash, acid sulfate and degraded saline soils were investigated for Languir adsorption isotherm of ammonium using $NH_4H_2PO_4$. The results are as follows. Languir adsorption maxima of ammonium (LAMA) ranged from 2.4me/100g soil to 12.3 and the average was 5.3. Initial concentration of 30 to 60 or 40 to 80 ppm(as N) appears to be suitable for LAMA measurement. There were two LAMA in some soils. Difference between adsorption constants (bonding energy) was mostly greater than that between LAMA. LAMA ranged from 9.4% to 72% of cation exchange capacity and average was 47%. It did not show any clear tendency with CEC, pH, organic matter content, base saturation percent, P, K, Ca, Mg, Na and Si. Except volcanic ash soils which were grouped into two groups according to ammonium adsorption LAMA was significantly (r=0.951 at 1%) correlated with adsorption at 200ppm. This single concentration seems suitable for LAMA measurement. Probable mechanism of ammonium adsorption was discussed, in which the associated anions were combined with iron and aluminum and then ammonium was bound to phosphorus. Applicability of Langmuir adsorption isotherm model to the soils under field condition was also discussed.

FeN thin films for inductive recording heads were sputter deposited using RF diode sputtering mehtod from a pure iron target onto 7059 glass substrates, and their magnetic properties were measured. The magnetic properties were greatly affected by film thickness, gas pressure, sputter power and flow ratio of $N_{2}$ to Ar. Single layer FeN films with their thickness varied from $1,000\;{\AA}$ to $6,000\;{\AA}$ were doposited. 800 W sputter power, 3 mT gas pressure, $N_{2}$ to Ar flow ratio of 6.6 : 100 were the sputtering conditions. Up to 7 layers of FeN films having total thickness of $6,000\;{\AA}$ were deposited using $SiO_{2}$ of $30\;{\AA}$ thickness as intermediate layers and their coercivity and saturation magnetization were measured. The sputtering conditions were the same as those in the single layer films. Easy axis coercivity of the single layer FeN films gradually decreased as their thickness was increased, but for the films with their thicknesses above $3,000\;{\AA}$, the coercivity changed very little. As the number of the FeN layers were increased, the coercivity decreased We estimated the grain size of FeN films from the FWHM (Full Width at Half Maximum) of X-ray diffraction peaks. The grain size steadily decreased from about $200\;{\AA}$ to $120\;{\AA}$ as the number of layers were increased. Minimum hard axis coercivity of 0.4 Oe was obtained when the number of layers was four. Maximum relative permeability was 2,900 when the number of layers was three. The cut off frequeocy of the multilayer films were above 100 MHz.

Nano-magnetic materials such as iron-nitrides have been actively studied as an alternative to the application of high density, high performance needs for next generation information storage and also alternative to the rare earth and neodymium magnet. $Fe_4N$ is the basic materials for magnetic storage media and is one of the important magnetic materials in focus because of its higher magnetic recording density and chemical stability. Single phase ${\gamma}^{\prime}-Fe_4N$ nanoparticles have been prepared by a PAD (Plasma Arc Discharge) method and nitriding in a $NH_3-H_2$ mixed gases at temperature, $400^{\circ}C$ for 4 hrs. Also $Fe_{17}Sm_2N_x$ powders were synthesized by nitriding after reduction/diffusion of $Fe_{17}Sm_2$ to compare the magnetic properties with nano-sized $Fe_4N$ particles. The saturation magnetization of $Fe_4N$ and $Fe_{17}Sm_2N_x$ were 149 and 117 emu/g, respectively, but the coercive force was considerably smaller than that of bulk or acicular $Fe_4N$.

Colossal magnetoresistance $La_{0.67}Ca_{0.33}Mn_{0.99}^{57}Fe_{0.01}O_3$ material has been produced by a metal-salt routed sol-gel process method. Magnetic properties of $La_{0.67}Ca_{0.33}Mn_{0.99}^{57}Fe_{0.01}O_3$ have been studied with x-ray diffraction, Rutherford back-scattering spectroscopy(RBS), vibrating sample magnetometer, and Mossbauer spectroscopy. Crystalline $La_{0.67}Ca_{0.33}Mn_{0.99}^{57}Fe_{0.01}O_3$ was perovskite cubic structure with a lattice parameter $a_0=3.868$\AA$$. And there was no appreciable change in the value of the lattice parameter when a small amount (x=0.01) of iron was added. However, Mossbauer and VSM data indicate the Curie temperature of the $La_{0.67}Ca_{0.33}Mn_{0.99}^{57}Fe_{0.01}O_3$ decreased from 282 to 270 k and also the saturation magnetization from 84 to 81 emu/g at 77 K. Mossbauer spectra of $La_{0.67}Ca_{0.33}Mn_{0.99}^{57}Fe_{0.01}O_3$ have been taken at various temperatures ranging form 4.2 K to room temperature. Analysis of $^{57}Fe$ Mossbauer data in terms of the local configurations of Mn atoms has permitted the influence of the magnetic hyperfine interactions to be monitored. The isomer shifts show that the charge state of all Fe ions are ferric. The magnetoresistance of $La_{0.67}Ca_{0.33}Mn_{0.99}^{57}Fe_{0.01}O_3$ was about 33 % at semiconductor-metal transition temperature $T_{SC-M}=250K$.

Polycrystalline nonstoichiometric bismuth-substituted yttrium iron garnet films with cation ratios of Bi:Y:Fe=1.5+u:1.5:5 and Bi:Y:Fe=1.5:1.5+v:5, where $-0.7{\leq}u{\leq}1.0$ and $-0.7{\leq}v{\leq}1.3$, have been prepared by pyrolysis. The crystal phases formed in these films at various temperatures have been analyzed by high power x-ray diffractometry (XRD). The saturation ma- gnetization, the Curie temperatures, and the Faraday rotation at the wavelength of 633 nm have been measured as a function of u and v. The XRD studies indicated that the bismuth and yttrium depleted (u < 0 and v < 0) films consisted of the mixed phases of garnet and impunity. While in the bismuth and ytrium overdosed films, no impurity lines were observed over a wide composition range of $0{\leq}u{\leq}0.5$ and $0{\leq}v{\leq}0.7$. The observed magnetic and magneto-optic data of these overdosed films, however, could only be reasonably explained by assuming the presence of samll amount of spurious phases, not detectable by the XRD.

The effect of ferrous/ferric molar ratio and precipitants on the formation of nano size magnetite particle was investigated by coprecipitation method. Ferrous sulfate and ferric sulfate were used as iron sources and sodium hydroxide and ammonium hydroxide was used as a precipitant. Single phase magnetite was synthesized with all of experiment conditions (ferrous/ferric molar ratios and precipitants). Particle size was smaller, and particle size distribution was narrower when NaOH was used than $NH_4OH$ was used. The crystallinity and particle size was increased and narrower particle size distribution with increasing molar ratio ferrous/ferric sulfate with the same precipitant. Super paramagnetism could be obtained at all of experiment conditions. The highest saturation magnetization (72 emu/g) was obtained when the ferrous/ferric molar ratio was 2.5 and precipitant was used $NH_4OH$.

The morphological, physical, chemical, and mineralogical characteristics of planosols in Korea were studied in an effort to establish the suitabilition of the planosols for agricultural development. The Yeongog series which are planosols were established in Korea. Results from the Yeongog series are briefly as follows : 1. Morphologically, the surface soils are brown to dark brown friable loam and subsoils are of varied colors but mainly are dark brown, black and pale brown mottles. The texture of these horizons are silty clay loam with moderate to strong platy structure and clay cutans are on the ped faces. The consistences of these horizons are extremely compact and hard when moist and sticky, plastic when wet. The substrata show varied soil colors and loam to clay loam. 2. Physically, the clay content of the Yeongog soils is highest in the subsoils and gradually decreases below the subsoils. Water holding capacity and bulk desity is higher than in other mineral soils. 3. Chemically, the organic matter content is low and soil reaction ranges from very strongly to strongly acid. The cation exchange capacity is medium and base saturation a high. Active iron, easily reducible manganese and available silicate are high compared with normal soils. 4. In chemical composition of clay fraction of the Yeongog series, sesquioxide ratio, $Fe_2O_3$, $K_2O$ and MgO are high. The cation exchange capacity of the clay fraction is also very high. 5. The clay minerals in Yeongog series are mainly kaoline, vermiculite with Al interlayers and illite. The quarts, primary minerals are in the Yeongog soils. 6. These soils are formed in a warm, humid climate under native grasses on the terraces and rolling or hilly footslopes. In soil classification, the Yeongog soils are classified planosols with claypan. According to 7th approximation system in U.S.A., the Yeongog series are classified as Fragiudalfs because they have an argillic horizon, a hard pan and a high base saturation which is more than 35 percent and classified as Eutric Planosols by FAO/UNESCO classification system.

In this study, we confirmed that the SWRO(Sea Water Reverse Osmosis) production water has more hard corrosiveness than the tap water by fundamental experiment. According to the result, the target of this study was aimed at developing maintenance and anti-corrosion method. In the early stages of the research, batch tests using mild steel coupons and electrochemical experiments were applied to compare the corrosiveness between SWRO production water and the tap water. After then, two corrosion control methods for SWRO production water were applied. Liquid lime($Ca(OH)_2$) and Carbon Dioxide($CO_2$) were inserted and compared with the combination of liquid lime with phosphate corrosion inhibitor and carbon dioxide. The water qualities were evaluated through LSI(Langelier Saturation Index) and proper injection ratio was deduced by the result. Since then, simulated loop system test were performed to evaluate anti-corrosion effect depending on corrosion inhibitors. Subsequently, carbon steel pipes equipped at the loop system were detached for SEM, EDX and XRD analysis to acquire quantitative and qualitative data of the major corrosion products inside the pipes. In conclusion, the controled groups with anti-corrosion techniques applied were effective by appearing 97.4% and 90.9% of improvements in both case of liquid lime and the liquid lime with a phosphate corrosion Inhibitor. furthermore, major components of scale were iron oxides, on the other hand, protective effect of film formation by calcium carbonate($CaCO_3$) could be confirmed.

To clarify the soil characteristics and genesis of the clayey terrace soils distributed in Yeongcheon (inland region) and Yeongil (coastal region), 9 typifying pedons including a recent local deposits were studied. The physico-chemical properties found were summarized as follows; 1. The contents of available water of the terrace soils were ranged from 12.0 to 20.3%. They were increased with increaseing clay content up to 35%, and then decreased at clay content of 35 to 55%, but were maintained about 12 to 13% when the clay content exceeds 55%. 2. The amount of water stable aggregates in the surface soils were ranged from 55.0 to 81.1%, and were low in cultivated upland where water erosion were accelerated while high in the paddy where the double cropping were practiced. The index of aggregate in cultivated upland were higher in the surface soils but the paddy soils were higher in subsoils. 3. The colloidal reactions checked by the differences between pH in $0.01N-Na_2SO_4$ and $H_2O$ indicate exchangeable acidity to exchangeable neutrality, which means a sort of Red-yellow soil forming process had been prevailed during genesis of the terrace soils. 4. Cation exchange capacity of the clayey terrace soils were averaged about 15.8-20.2me/100g of fine earth and 35.6-52.6me/100g of clay. The rates of base saturation were 32.7 to 57.6% and the rates decreased with increasing the elevations of terraces. 5. The activities of free iron oxides were 0.061 to 0.739 and the values decreased with increasing elevation while the crystallinity index of iron oxides positively correlated with elevations the values ranged from 0.067 to 0.537.

Chemical determination were made to analyze the concentration of nutrients including proximate composition, vitamins, minerals, amino acids and fatty acids in three kinds of locally produced infantile formula milk(DFM) and one fermented milk(FM). An attempt was also made to compare the analytical values of nutrients against guaranteed values. The results obtained are summarized as follows; 1. The analyzed value of protein and fat content in DFM-A.B.C was slightly lower than that of guaranteed values and a reverse trend was observed in the case of total carbohydrate. There were no differences in proximate composition among the three kinds of DFM. It was found that the FM contained less protein and fat than the fresh milk, but it seemed that a considerable amount of sugar was added to FM. 2. The analyzed values of vitamin $A(2{\sim}3\;times)$ and $E(4{\sim}6\;times)$ contents in DFMS were higher than those of the guaranteed values except niacin. There were a little differences in vitamin contents among DFMS analyzed. 3. In the case of minerals, the analyzed values were similar to the guaranteed values except the calcium concentration that analyzed value was much higher than guaranted value. When the DFMS were diluted to 15% by adding water to compare with the human and fresh cow milk, it was found that the diluted DFMS resembled the human milk rather than cow milk in the content of energy, carbohydrates, protein and ash. The higher contents of iron and most vitamins in the diluted DFMS than the human milk or cow milk would indicate that they were fortificated with these nutrients. When these diluted DFMS were compared with the Korean R.D.A. for infant, it was clear that they could supply sufficient amount of the nutrients required by R.D.A. except the niacin which failed to reach the recommended level. The fact that iron content of DFM-C was not sufficient while vitamin A supply was excessive by 6 fold would indicate that further studies for the improvement may be necessary. 4. There was a little difference among DFMS in amino acid composition. The similarity of the essential amino acids composition between DFMS and cow milk indicated that there was no modification of the essential amino acids. However, present data showed that the amino acid compositon of FM was similar to that of the cow milk. 5. There was no difference among DFMS in the degree of saturation of fatty acids. The similar or higher levels of essential fatty acids contents of DFMS as compared with human milk revealed that essential fatty acids were added to DFMS during the course of process. From the experimental results described above, it may be concluded that the nutritive effects of three kinds of locally produced DFMS were much alike. It was also found that macro and micro nutrient composition except amino acid composition of locally produced dried formula milk was very much similar to that of the human milk. Moreover, fortification of iron and vitamins resulted in improving their nutritive values as the single form of infantile food, but it seemed that more consideration should be given on the fortification of some nutrients.
