This study was investigated pattern changes of tannin isolated from astringent persimmon fruits. The contents of total phenolics and soluble tannins decreased as the maturing and softening of persimmon fruits proceeded. Green and mature persimmon tannins reacted with acetaldehyde. The more contents of tannin increased, the more reactions became. And the reaction of green Persimmon tannin was more active than mature persimmon tannins. But tannin from soft persimmon fruits did not react with acetaldehyde. Tannins were more polymerized during maturing and softening of fruits. So there was a little difference in chromatography of persimmon tannins. Also green and mature persimmon tannins obtained 4 bands respectively after thin layer chromatography analysis. But there was only 2 bands in soft persimmon tannin. As softening of persimmon fruits proceeded, most of tannins reacted with acetaldehyde, so coagulated. Also the component of soluble tannins was changed during softening of persimmon fruits.

Alumina glazed with a bioactive glass reacted in Simulated Body Fluids(SBF) to investigate the behavior of hydroxyapatite formation on the glass coat layer. Various crystalline phases were found depending on the firing temperatures when the bioactive glass coat was heat-treated. The glass coat was crystallized into ${\beta}$-wollastonite and apatite when fired at 1100$^{\circ}C$, and ${\alpha}$-wollastonite and apatite when fired at 1200$^{\circ}C$. Those samples reacted in SBF, and it is observed that hydroxyapatite developed on the surface of the crystallized glaze. Its formation was much easier in the sample with ${\alpha}$-wollastonite than with ${\beta}$-wollastonite. This is because that the ${\alpha}$-wollastonite dissolves more easily than ${\beta}$-wollastonite does in SBF.

In this study, column tests using relatively uniform Jumunjin sand media were conducted to evaluate the feasibility of calcium polysulfide (CaS_x, CPS) in removing high concentration of Zn²⁺ in groundwater. The injected CPS solution reacted rapidly with Zn²⁺ in artificial groundwater and effectively reduced Zn²⁺ by more than 99% through metal sulfide precipitation. Since the density (d = 1.27 g/cm³ ) of CPS solution was greater than that of water, CPS solution settled down rapidly while capturing Zn²⁺ and formed stable CPS layer similar to dense nonaqueous phase liquid. Mass balance analysis on Zn²⁺ in CPS solution suggested that CPS solution effectively reacted with Zn²⁺ to form metal sulfide precipitates except for high groundwater seepage velocity of 400 cm/d. With greater groundwater seepage velocity, injected CPS did not completely dissolve at the CPS-water interface, but a partially-misible CPS layer continuously moved and reacted with Zn²⁺+ in the direction of groundwater flow. Since hydraulic conductivity (K_h) decreased slightly due to the generated metal precipitates in the inter-pores of media, injection of CPS solution should be optimized to prevent clogging. As evidenced by both XRF and SEM/EDS results, ZnS precipitates were clearly observed through the reaction between the CPS solution and Zn²⁺. Further study is warranted to evaluate the feasibility of CPS to remove high-concentration heavy metalcontaminated groundwater in complex and heterogeneous media.

Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$ ceramic coating layer by gas flame spraying was very porous, therefore it could not have wear and corrosion resistance at all. To get a dense and strong coating layer, a method to infiltrate an alloy into the pores of $Al_{2}$O$_{3}$ ceramic coating was investigated. Cu-Ti alloys, which had good wettability and reactivity with $Al_{2}$O$_{3}$ ceramic, were examined for infiltration. Infiltration of the alloys was performed in vacuum at 1100.deg.C. The melt of Cu-50 at % Ti alloy was well penetrated through the porous $Al_{2}$O$_{3}$ coating and tightly sealed the pores, unbounded area and microcracks in the coating. The alloy melt in the pores reacted with $Al_{2}$O$_{3}$ ceramic to produce a suboxide phase, Cu$_{2}$Ti$_{4}$O. This composite layer which was composed of $Al_{2}$O$_{3}$ and Cu$_{2}$Ti$_{4}$O phase had good microstructure and wear and corrosion resistance. Additionally, microstructures at interfaces between coating layers were greatly improved owing to the effect of vacuum heat treating.

Single crystal growth of $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ by the solid state crystal growth method was attempted. Seed crystals of ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ were pressed into pellets of $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ + 2 wt% $BaCO_3$ and heat-treated at temperatures between $1150^{\circ}C$ and $1250^{\circ}C$ for up to 100 hours. Instead of single crystal growth taking place on the seed crystal, BaO diffused into the seed crystal and reacted with it to form a polycrystalline reaction layer of $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$. The microstructure, chemical composition and structure of the reaction layer were studied using scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), x-ray Diffraction (XRD) and micro-Raman scattering and confirmed to be that of $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$. XRD showed that the reaction layer shows a strong degree of orientation in the (h00)/(hk0) planes in the sample sintered at $1200^{\circ}C$. $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ layers with a degree of orientation in the (hk0) planes could also be grown by heat-treating an ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ seed crystal buried in $BaCO_3$ powder.

In order to improve the oxidation resistance of $Ti_3Al$, Ti-25at.%Al composites containing dispersed particles of 15wt.%SiC were prepared by a tubular mixing-spark plasma sintering method. The sintered composites had $Ti_3Al$, SiC, $Ti_5Si_3$ and TiC. The presence of $Ti_5Si_3$ and TiC indicates that some of SiC particles reacted with Ti to from more stable phases. From oxidation tests at 800, 900 and $1000^{\circ}C$ under 1 atm of pure oxygen, it was found that the oxidation rate of Ti3Al was effectively reduced by the addition of SiC. The scale was primarily composed of an outer $TiO_2$ layer having some $Al_2O_3 $islands, an intermediate relatively thick $Al_2O_3 $ layer, and an inner $TiO_2+Al_2O_3+SiO_2$ mixed layer. Beneath the scale, Kirkendall voids were seen.

The TiCrN Coatings haying three kinds of Compositions of $Ti_{36}$ $Cr_{26}$ $N_{38}$ , $Ti_{31}$ $Cr_{35}$ $N_{34}$ / and $Ti_{14}$ $Cr_{52}$ $N_{34}$ were deposited on STD 61 steel substrate by arc ion plating and were oxidized between 700 and 100$0^{\circ}C$ to identify the oxide scales formed on the coatings. The oxide scales were then analyzed using EPMA, XRD and GAXRD. During oxidation, the coatings consisting of TiN and CrN phases were reduced to TiO2 and $Cr_2$$O_3$, respectively. Titania tended to form at the outer oxide layer, whereas chromia tended to form at the inner oxide layer, owing to the different oxygen affinity. The substrate elements as well as coating elements diffused outwardly toward the oxide layer due to the concentration gradient. The growth of oxide from the TiCrN coatings was schematically expressed on the basis of thickness measurement of the reacted and unreacted coatings. The Cr element showed its stronger role to keep the TiCrN coatings from oxidation, when compared with Ni.

We have fabricated YBa$_2$Cu$_3$$O_{7-x}$ (YBCO) ramp-edge Josephson junctions by modifying ramp edges of the base electrodes without depositing any artificial barrier layer. YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O/7-x//SrTiO$_3$ (YBCO/STO) films were deposited on SrTiO$_3$(100) by on-axis KrF laser deposition. After patterning the bottom YBCO/STO layer, the ramp edge was cleaned by ion-beam and then reacted with deionized water under various conditions prior to the deposition of counter-electrode layers. The top YBCO/STO layer was deposited and patterned by photolithography and ion milling. We measured current-voltage (I-V) characteristics, magnetic field modulation of the critical current at 77 K. Some showed resistively shunted junction (RSJ)-type I-V characteristics, while others exhibited flux-flow behaviors, depending on the dipping time of the ramp edge in deionized water. Junctions fabricated using optimized conditions showed fairly uniform distribution of junction parameters such as I$_{c}$R$_{n}$ values, which were about 0.16 mV at 77 K with 1$\sigma$~ 24%. We made a dc SQUID with the same deionized water treated junctions, and it showed the sinusoidal modulation under applied magnetic field at 77 K. 77 K.

To investigate the effect of the weathering process of biotite on Cs sorption, sorption experiment of Cs with $10^{-3}M$ solution was carried out on the biotite reacted at different reaction times at pH 2 and 4, and 1 M solutions of Na, K, Ca, Mg, Rb, and Cs. Peak changes were observed for some samples by XRD, indicating that new mineral phase formed by biotite weathering. Among several factors, cations in solutions have the most significant influence on the mineralogical changes. The samples reacted with Na showed the most outstanding change with increasing peak width and appearance of $12{\AA}$ peak and $14{\AA}$ peak. This new peaks indicate the formation of hydrobiotite and vermiculite. The new peaks had stronger peak intensity for the sample reacted at pH 4 than that at pH 2, probably due to the fast dissolution of small particles and edges and resultant decrease in the formation of expandable layers. The biotite reacted at Mg solution showed small intensity at $14{\AA}$. Based on XRD results, the degree of biotite weathering was in the order of Na, Mg, and Ca. The samples reacted with K, Rb, Cs solutions did not show noticeable mineralogical changes caused by weathering. The amount of sorbed Cs on weathered biotite showed close relationship with the degree of weathering indicated by XRD. At both pH 2 and 4, the biotite reacted with Na solution showed the highest Cs sorption, and those with Mg and Ca solutions showed the next highest ones. The sorbed amounts of Cs on the bitote reacted with K, Rb, Cs solutions were relatively low. This indicates that at the Cs concentration ($10^{-3}M$) which we used for this experiment and which was much higher than the maximum Cs concentration sorbed on the frayed edge site, expandable layer plays more important role than frayed edge. In the cases of K, Rb, and Cs solutions, Cs sorption was decreased because K is the same cations as the one in the interlayer or the sorption of Rb and Cs on the frayed edge prevents the formation of expandable layers.

The mechanisms of formation of transfer film under the condition of wear of Steel AISI1020 by natural rubber were investigated. The transfer film was observed and the formation mechanisms were clarified. The formation process of transfer film on the worn surface of the steel could be divided into two stages. Firstly, the adhesive layer emerged on the worn surface of the steel by adhesion of natural rubber. in which the macromolecular chains of natural rubber joined to the surface of the steel by Van der Waals' force. And then, the iron atom and metal oxide reacted with the macromolecular of natural rubber in the adhesive layer and produced Fe-polymer compound. As a result, the transfer film was formed on the worn surface of the steel. The transfer film was joined to the worn surface of the steel by the chemical bonds and electrostatic force.
