Friction characteristics of the brake friction materials without environmentally regulated ingredients were examined to find their role in the brake performance. Five friction materials were produced based on a nearcommercial formulation by changing the relative amount of potentially hazardous ingredients to health and environment, such as $Sb_2S_3$, potassium titanate, and brass fiber. Tribological properties of the friction materials were obtained using a scale dynamometer and Krauss type tribometer. Results showed that the excluded three ingredients played important synergetic effects on tribological properties in terms of fade resistance, wear resistance and friction effectiveness. In particular, brass fibers played important roles in the friction stability by providing excellent thermal diffusivity at the friction interface. Potassium titanate whiskers showed excellent fade resistance and wear resistance compared to the substituted barite. Antimony trisulfide, on the other hand, showed little effect on the high temperature fade resistance and wear resistance, while it increased friction effectiveness at moderate temperatures. The friction materials without the three ingredients showed severe fade, indicating antisynergy effects.

Organic light-emitting device (OLED) have become very attractive due to their potential application in flat panel displays. One important problem to be solved for practical application of full-color OLED is development of three primary color (Red, Green and Blue) emitting molecule with high luminous operation. Particularly, the development of organic materials for blue electroluminescence (EL) lags significantly behind that for the other two primary colors. For this reason, Flu-Si was synthesized and characterized by means of high-resolution mass spectro metry and elemental analyses. Flu-Si has the more wide optical band gap (Eg = 3.86) than reference material (Cz-Si, Eg = 3.52 eV). We measured the photophysical and electrochemical properties of Flu-Si. The HOMO-LUMO levels were estimated by the oxidation potential and the onset of the UV-Vis absorption spectra. The EL properties were studied by the device fabricated as a blue light emitting material with FIrpic.

The properties of LiMnO$_2$ was studied as a cathode active material for lithium polymer batteries. LiMnO$_2$ cathode active materials were synthesized by the reaction of LiOH . $H_2O$ and Mn$_2$O$_3$at various temperature under argon atmosphere.

And the relationship between the characteristics of powders and electrochemical properties was studied in this research. A maximum discharge capacity of 160-170 mAh/g for ο-LiMnO$_2$ cell was achieved. Used that SP270 as electric active material in LiMnO$_2$, it is excellent than property of electric active material used Acetylene black or KS6 at charge/discharge capacity.

A piezoelectric ultrasonic linear motor shaped with 'Butterfly' wings has been developed for thin electronics such as cellular phone and PDA. The butterfly piezoelectric transducer is simply composed of an elastic plate, which includes a tip for energy transfer and two protrusions to fix it, and two piezoelectric ceramics. Contact materials, such as a brass, and steel and alumina can make it possible to improve dynamic properties of the motors over a wide range of tribological conditions. The dynamic properties of the motor have been intensively measured and analyzed according to the applied voltage wave forms at the various frequencies. The results of numerical study and experimental investigation will be used for the future optimization of the actuator and the realization of the advanced ultrasonic motor.

Along the few nano sizing dimensions of integrated circuit (IC) devices, acceptable interlayer material for design is inevitable. The interlayer which include dielectric, interconnect, barrier etc. needs to achieve not only electrical properties, but also mechanical properties for endure post manufacture process and prolonging life time. For developing intermetallic dielectric (IMD) the mechanical issues with post manufacturing processes were need to be solved. For analyzing specific structural problem and material properties Raman spectroscopy was performed for various researches in Si semiconductor based materials. As improve of the laser and charge-coupled device (CCD) technology the total effectiveness and reliability was enhanced. For thin film as IMD developed material could be analyzed by Raman spectroscopy, and diverse researches of developing method to analyze thin layer were comprehended. Also In-situ analysis of Raman spectroscopy is introduced for material forming research.

To measure electrical properties and viscoelasticity of semiconducting materials in power cable, we have investigated dielectric properties and modulus of EEA/acetylene black composite showed by changing the content of acetylene black. The permittivity from experimental result was increased, while tan6 was decreased by an increment of the content of acetylene black. The modulus of specimens was increased according to a increment of a acetylene black content. And modulus was rapidly decreased at the glass transition temperature. The tan$\delta$ of specimens was decreased according to a increment of a acetylene black content.

Using the theory of linear piezoelectricity, the dynamic response of a central crack in a functionally graded piezoelectric ceramic under anti-plane shear impact is analyzed. We assume that the properties of the functionally graded piezoelectric material vary continuously along the thickness. By using the Laplace and Fourier transform, the problem is reduced to two pairs of dual integral equations and then into Fredholm integral equations of the second kind. Numerical values on the dynamic stress intensity factors are presented to show the dependence of the gradient of material properties and electric loading.

The optical properties of multi layered thin films with $Sb_2O_3/Na_3AlF_6/Sb_2O_3/Cr$ were simulated by using EMP(Essential Macleod Program). EMP is a comprehensive software package to design and analyse the optical characteristics of multi-layered thin film. $Sb_2O_3$ and $Na_3AlF_6$ were selected as a high refractive index and low refractive index material respectively. Additionally Cr was chosen as mid reflective material. Optical properties including color effect were systematically studied in terms of different optical thickness of low refractive index material. The optical thickness of $Na_3AlF_6$ was changed as 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and $1.0\lambda$. The film with 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and $1.0\lambda$ of optical thickness showed mixed color range between purple and red range, yellowish green and bluish green, purple and mixed color range of green and purple respectively.

This paper is aimed to study the influence of aluminium dross from Thai aluminum casting factory on polypropylene matrix-polymer composite material properties. The summarized experimental results are as follows. An increase in the amount of aluminum dross polymer composite material affected to increase hardness, modulus of elasticity and abrasion resistance. However, the increase of the aluminum dross had no effects to change the yield strength and the melting temperature of the polymer composite material. The aluminum dross also affected to form the crystallinity at $117-122^{\circ}C$ and directly increased the rigid property of the composite materials. The microstructure examination revealed that the aluminum dross was located in a polymer matrix and affected to increase the dark colour of the polymer composite material.

Rubber material properties and lifetime evaluation are very important in design procedure to assure the safety and reliability of the rubber components. This paper discusses the failure mechanism and material tests were carried out to predict the useful lifetime of NBR and EPDM for compression motor, which is used in refrigerator component. The heat-aging process leads not only to mechanical properties change but also to chemical structure change so called degradation. In order to investigate the aging effects on the material properties, the accelerated test were carried out. The stress-strain curves were plotted from the results of the tensile test for virgin and heat-aged rubber specimens. The rubber specimens were heat-aged in an oven at the temperature ranging from $70^{\circ}C\;to\;100^{\circ}C$ for a period ranging from 1 to 180 days. Compression set results changes as the threshold are used for assessment of the useful life and time to threshold value were plotted against reciprocal of absolute temperature to give the Arrhenius plot. By using the compression set test, several useful lifetime prediction equations for rubber material were proposed.
