The effects of H₂O and residue SO₂ in flue gases on the activity of the Fe/zeolite catalysts for low-temperature NH₃-SCR of NO were investigated. And the addition effect of Mn, Zr and Ce to Fe/zeolite for low-temperature NH₃-SCR of NO in the presence of H₂O and SO₂ was investigated. Fe/zeolite catalysts were prepared by liquid ion exchange and promoted Fe/zeolite catatysts were prepared by liquid ion exchange and doping of Mn, Zr and Ce by incipient wetness impregnation. Zeolite NH₄-BEA and NH₄-ZSM-5 were used to adapt the SCR technology for mobile diesel engines. The catalysts were characterized by BET, X-ray diffraction (XRD), SEM/EDS, TEM/EDS. The NO conversion at 200 ℃ over Fe/BEA decreased from 77% to 47% owing to the presence of 5% H₂O and 100 ppm SO₂ in the flue gas. The Mn promoted MnFe/BEA catalyst exhibited NO conversion higher than 53% at 200 ℃ and superior to that of Fe/BEA in the presence of H₂O and SO₂. The addition of Mn increased the Fe dispersion and prevented Fe aggregation. The promoting effect of Mn was higher than Zr and Ce. Fe/BEA catalyst exhibited good activity in comparison with Fe/ZSM-5 catalyst at low temperature below 250 ℃.

In this study, a series of $LiNbO_{3}$ crystals with different [Li]/[Nb] ratios, congruent $LiNbO_{3}$ crystals with doped Mg and with Mg and codoped with Mn were grown by the Czocharalski method. These were investigated by UV and IR spectrophotometry. Stoichiometry dependences of the UV absorption edge and the $OH^{-}$ absorption spectra were studied with different [Li]/[Nb] ratios. The position of the UV absorption edge adn the shape and peak point of the $OH^{-}$ absorption spectra changed monotonously upto a critical concentration of Mg ions. The mechanism of the incorporation of Mg ions changes at this concentration. The decomposition of the $OH^{-}$ absorption spectra using a Gaussian lineshape function showed that in Li-deficient crystals the absorption spectra consist of five components in contrast to more or less perfect stoichiometric crystals which reveal to three components. On the basis of these results, the intrinsic and the extrinsic defect structure models in $LiNbO_{3}$ crystals were examined. The behaviour of $\nu$ (OH) reflects the defect structure and supports the Li-site vacancy model as the intrinsic defect structure model and the corresponding extrinsic defect model. A brief discussion is also given of the behaviour of $\nu$ (OH) in $LiNbO_{3}$ crystals simultaneously doped with several kinds of impurity.

The permeability vs. temperature curve, the loss factor and the microstructure of a commercial Mn-Zn ferrites were investigated by X-ray diffractometer, SEM and LCR meter, where the additives, such as $SnO_{2}$ and $GeO_{2}$, were added to the main composition. Their wt% were 0.05, 0.3 and 1.0, respectively. When the content of additives increased, the SPM (Secondary Peak Maximum) of the permeability moved from $80^{\circ}C$ to below the room temperature. This movement, without the significant change of the microstructure, is because Sn and Ge, having the different ionic radius, were soluble in the matrix. There was no variation of the permeability with the frequency up to 100 kHz. And the loss factor showed the maximum value at 10 kHz.

Alumina added with Mn3O4 up to 7.5 cat% of Mn was prepared by conventional ceramic processing, and the sintering behavior and the optical properties of which were studied as functions of Mn content. Densification and grain growth of alumina were enhanced by Mn addition up to 0.75 cat% but was leveled off at higher concentrations. XRD revealed that $Al_2MnO_4$(galaxite) was formed as a second phase in the specimens with more than 0.75 cat% of Mn. Thus it is believed that either the solid solution effect of Mn or the Zener effect of $Al_2MnO_4$ becomes predominant in the sintering of Mn-added $Al_2O_3$ according to the additive concentration. UV-VIS reflectivity(SCI) spectra of Mn-added $Al_2O_3$ consisted of smooth bottoms in 300~550 nm wavelength range and plateaus at wavelengths longer than 650 nm. The reflectivity spectrum continuously moved downward, and the specimen color became darker and thicker with increasing Mn content. The CIELAB color change with respect to standard white was also dependent on the amount of Mn added: ${\Delta}L^*$(D65) negatively increased and ${\Delta}E_{ab}^*$(D65) positively increased with increasing Mn content, probably due to Mn substitution to Al and/or the mixing effect of black $Al_2MnO_4$ as a second phase.

$V_{2}O_{5}/TiO_{2}$ catalysts promoted with Mn were prepared and tested for selective catalytic reduction of NOx in $NH_3.$ The effects of promoter content, degree of catalyst loading were investigated for NOx activity while changing temperatures, mole ratio, space velocity and $O_2$ concentration. Among the various $V-{2}O_{5}$ catalysts having different metal loadings, $V-{2}O_{5}$(1 wt.%) catalyst showed the highest activity(98%) under wide temperature range of $200-250^{\circ}C.$ When the $V-{2}O_{5}$ catalyst was further modified with 5 wt.% Mn as a promoter, the highest activity(90-47%) was obtained over the low temperature windows of $100-200^{\circ}C.$ From Mn-$V_{2}O_{5}/TiO_{2}$, it was found that by addition of 5 wt.% Mn on $V_{2}O_{5}/TiO_{2}$ catalyst, reduction activity of catalyst was improved, which resulted in the increase of catalytic activity and NOx reduction. According to the results, NOx removal decreased for 10%, but the reaction temperature down to $100^{\circ}C.$

Electrical properties and microstructure were investigated on the effects of $MnO_2$ and the lead-free $(Na_{0.44}K_{0.52}Li_{0.04})(Nb_{0.83}Sb_{0.07}Ta_{0.1})O_3$ ceramics with the addition of $MnO_2$ were fabricated by a conventional mixed oxide method. A gradual change in the crystal and microstructure was observed with the increase of $MnO_2$ addition. For the NKN-LST-xmol%$MnO_2$ sintered at $1100^{\circ}C$, bulk density increased with the addition of $MnO_2$ and showed maximum value at addition 1.0mol% of $MnO_2$. Curie temperature of the NKN-LST ceramics slightly decreased with adding $MnO_2$. The dielectric constant, piezoelectric constant ($d_{33}$) and electromechanical coupling factor ($k_p$) increased below 0.25mol% of $MnO_2$ addition, which might be due to the increase in density. The high piezoelectric properties = 145 pC/N, electromechanical coupling factor = 0.421 and dielectric constant = 2883 were obtained for the NKN-LST-0.25mol%$MnO_2$ sintered at $1100^{\circ}C$ for 4h.
