The oxidation of (W,Mo)$Si_2$ powders has been investigated at 400, 500 and $600^{\circ}C$ for 12.0 hours in air. It was shown that the low temperature oxidation resistance of (W,Mo)$Si_2$ was worse than that of $MoSi_2$, and they showed great changes in mass, volume and colour. Especialy at $500^{\circ}C$, the amount of volume expansion of (W,Mo)$Si_2$ was as high as about $7\sim8$ times and color changed from black to yellow after 4.0h with $MoO_3$, $WO_3$, (W,Mo)$O_3$ and amorphous $SiO_2$ as main reaction products. The mass gain and oxidation rate were relatively slower at $400^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$ than that at $500^{\circ}C$.

This work presents oxidation of formic acid on Bi-modified Pt nanoparticles of various sizes. The sizes of the studied Pt nanoparticles range from 1.5 to 5.6 nm (detailed in Rhee, C. K.; Kim, B.-J.; Ham, C.; Kim, Y.-J.; Song, K.; Kwon, K. Langmuir 2009, 25, 7140-7147), and the surfaces of the Pt nanoparticles are modified with irreversibly adsorbed Bi. The investigated coverages of Bi on the Pt nanoparticles are 0.12 and 0.25 as determined by coulometry of the oxidation of adsorbed hydrogen and Bi, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The cyclic voltammetric behavior of formic acid oxidation reveals that the adsorbed Bi enhances the catalytic activity of Pt nanoparticles by impeding a poison-forming dehydration path with a concomitant promotion of a dehydrogenation path. The chronoamperometric results indicate that elemental Bi and partially oxidized Bi are responsible for the catalytic enhancement, when the Bi coverages on Pt nanoparticles are 0.12 and 0.25, respectively. The size effect of Bi-modified Pt nanoparticles in formic acid oxidation is discussed in terms of specific activity (current per unit surface area) and mass activity (current per unit mass).

The electrochemical oxidation behavior of p-cresol on platinum anode had been investigated by cyclic voltammetric method for the variation of concentration, scan rate of potential, temperature and pH of electrolyte. The oxidation potential of p-cresol was dependent on the electrolyte until the pH=11.5, but in basic solution over its, it was held at o.40V(vs. SCE). A diffusion was rate determining step of oxidation as irreversible reaction by the transfer atone electron. The current of peak was proportional to concentration of p-cresol until the 0.1N and optimum concentration was found to be about 0.1N. The activation energy was calculated for 5.8kcal/mol from the plot of log $I_l$ vs. 1/T.

The effects of laser heating on soot formation and oxidation of propylene diffusion flames have been studied experimentally under nearly sooting conditions. The non-sooting flame can be converted to a sooting flame when the laser light heats up a flame at 7 mm height, while a sooting flame can be changed to a non-sooting flame when a flame is heated with laser light at flame height of 13 mm. The selective heating at the soot formation and/or oxidation region determines the sooting behavior of a diffusion flame. The increased soot/flame temperatures are most likely to be responsible for both the decreased and increased soot formation/oxidation.

Alloys of Ti-43%Al-2%W-0.1%Si were oxidized isothermally and cyclically between $900^{\circ}C$ and$ 1050^{\circ}C$, and their oxidation characteristics were studied. During isothermal tests, the alloys oxidized slowly up to 100$0^{\circ}C$, but fast at $1050^{\circ}C$. Though the scale adherence was not good above $900^{\circ}C$, the alloys displayed better oxidation behavior than unalloyed TiAl alloys. The oxide scales consisted primarily of an outer $TiO_2$ layer, intermediate $Al_2$$O_3$-rich layer, and an inner mixed layer of (TiO$_2$ $+Al_2$$O_3$). Tungsten was present mainly at the lower part of the oxide scale, while Si over the whole oxide scale.

In a salb-preheating furnace of steel-making industry, the oxidation/degradation behavior of Cr3C2 ceramic composited dkid button reaction with scale in Fe-oxide system occurs and was thermodynamically examined. The reaction of scale with Cr3C2 skid button produces Cr3C2(s) and C(s), and Co gas is then evolved from the reaction of C(s) with Fe-scale. Cr3C2(s) from oxidation of Cr3C2(s) reacted with Fe-oxide(s) becomes high-melting chromite. The chromite acts as protection layer against further oxidation and improves resistance of the reaction of Cr3C2 skid button with Fe-scale.

Methanol oxidation effect on carbon supported Pt was investigated as a function of Pt content in a sample which is closely correlated with Pt particle sizes. After prolonged methanol oxidation the Pt particle size did not change within the experimental error ranges. The $^{13}C$ chemical shift and linewidth of CO adsorbed on Pt show non-linear behavior simply due to the Pt particle size difference. The Pt size variation difference between this work and the previous reports of the particle growths is explained by the experimental temperature difference.

Nickel modified NiOOH electrodes were used for the electrocatalytic oxidation of ethanol in alkaline solutions where the methods of cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry (CA) were employed. In CV studies, in the presence of ethanol, an increase in the current for the oxidation of nickel hydroxide is followed by a decrease in the corresponding cathodic current. This suggests that the oxidation of ethanol is being catalysed through mediated electron transfer across the nickel hydroxide layer comprising of nickel ions of various valence states. Under the CA regime the reaction followed a Cottrellian behavior and the diffusion coefficient of ethanol was found to be $1{\times}10^7cm^2s^{-1}$.

This study presents the dielectric properties of $Ta_2O_5$ MIM capacitor structure processed by thermal oxidation. The AES(auger electron emission) depth profile showed thermal oxidation effect gives rise to the $O_2$ deficiened into the new layer. The leakage current density respectively, at $1{\sim}3{\times}10^{-3}$(kV/cm) were $3{\times}10^{-4}-10^{-8}(A/cm^2)$. Leakage current density behavior is stable irrespective of applied electric field, the frequency va capacitance characteristic enhanced stability. The capacitance vs voltage measurement that, $V_{fb}$(flat-band voltage) was increase dependance on the thin films thickness, it is changed negative to positive.

The electrochemical oxidation behavior of phenol on platinum anode had been investigated by cyclic voltammetric method. The initial oxidation potential of phenol was dependent on the pH in acid solution. But in basic solution, it was held 033-0.40V(vs. S.C.E.). The peak current was proportional to the concentration of phenol and the optimum concentration was found to be about 0.1N. The oxidation reaction of phenol was found to be irreversible and controlled by diffusion.
