Reaction bonded si-SiC composites were prepared by silicon infiltration technique at temperature of 1$600^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes in vaccum atmosphere. The microstructure and mechanical properties of Si-SiC composites were investigated and characterized. UF-15 and SE-10 as SiC powders, phenolic resin and carbon black as carbon source, and metallic silicon powder as molten Si source were used as starting materials. New SiC crystallines nucleatd and grown by reaction of Si and C were detected by TEM and SEM-EDS. The bonding between new and original SiC was found to be strong. But the wetting of SiC by unreacted metallic Si and the rapid grain growth of new SiC decreased density and fracture toughness. Fracture toughness and modulus of rupture of Si-SiC composite were about 3.2 MPa.m1/2 and 480 MPa, respectively.

The role of added metal oxide in the adherence mechanism of low melting glass to several metal plates such as oxygen free high conducting copper, low carbon steel, chrominum galvanized on copper, and stainless steel was investigated. The metal oxide which added to glass were cupric oxide, ferric oxide, chromic oxide, and stainless steel oxide. The glass to that various metla oxide were added, sealed with several metal plates in the electric furnace at $650^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes. The results as follows; 1) The interfacial reaction was promoted and strong chemical bonding with glass and metals by which the surface energy was decreased showed excellent sealing by addition of metal oxide. 2) When the interfacial reaction of glass and metals was promoted by addition of metal oxide found out that various adhernece mechanism were related to the sealing. 3) When the amount of metal oxide addition was 3-5% the excellent sealing was achieved.

The behavior of the burn-on in sand mold has been investigated by varying the pouring metal, bonding materials, additive materials and molding sand. The results obtained from thease experiments are as follows; 1) The burn-on layer of silica sand decreased in order of carbon steel, gray cast iron and stainless steel, and thease burn layer proceeded mostly by producing FeO. 2) The burning reaction of silica sand mold in carbon steel castings declined with increasingly bentonite content, but water-glass scarcely took part in the burn-on reaction. 3) The addition of feldspar and seacoal to silica sand promoted the inhibiting burn-on. 4) The burn-on layer of sand mold decreased of silica sand, chromite sand and olivine sand.

Satellites with flexible lightweight solar panels are sensitive to vibration that is caused by internal actuators such as reaction or momentum wheels which are used to control the attitude of the satellite. Any infinitesimal amount of unbalance in the reaction wheels rotors will impose a harmonic excitation which may interact with the solar panels structure. Therefore, quenching the solar panel's vibration is of a practical importance. In the present work, the panels are modeled as laminated composite beam using first-order shear deformation laminated plate theory which accounts for rotational inertia as well as shear deformation effects. The vibration suppression is achieved by bonding patches of piezoelectric material with suitable dimensions at selected locations along the panel. These patches are actuated by driving control voltages. The governing equations for the system are formulated and the dynamic Green's functions are used to present an exact yet simple solution for the problem. A guide lines is proposed for determining the values of the driving voltage in order to suppress the induced vibration.

The experimental determination of equilibrium constants is required to estimate concentrations of reagents and/or products in environmental chemical reactions. For an example, the choice of copper (Cu) complexation reactions was motivated by their fast kinetics and the ease of measurement of Cu by an ion-sensitive electrode. Each individual titrant of sulfate ($SO{_4}^{2-}$) and oxalate ($C_2O{_4}^{2-}$) was expected to have its own unique characteristics, depending on the bonding in Culigands connected to the aqueous species. The complexation reaction of Cu with $SO{_4}^{2-}$ somewhat fast reached equilibrium status compared with $C_2O{_4}^{2-}$. The experimental equilibrium constants ($K_{eq}$) of copper sulfate ($CuSO_4$) and copper oxalate ($CuC_2O_4$) were determined $10^{2.2}$ and $10^{3{\sim}4.3}$, respectively.

Various $\alpha$-silicon carbied and colloidal graphite particles were sintered at 155$0^{\circ}C$ in vacuum atmosphere by reaction bonding sintering method, and the physical properties and microstructural analysis of specimen were investigated. With decreasing particle size, sintered density and 3-point bending strength of materials were increased and 3.2${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ specimen showed high density and strength, 3.05g/㎤, 40kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$, respectively. The results of X-ray diffractometer and optical micrographs analysis showed that graphite and silicon melt reacted to convert to fine $\beta$-SiC particle and the body was changed to dense material.

In this study, Au thin films were etched with a Cl$_2$/Ar gas combination in an inductively coupled plasma. The highest etch rate of the Au thin film was 3500 A/min at a Cl$_2$/(Cl$_2$+Ar) gas mixing ratio of 0.2. The surface reaction of the etched Au thin films was investigated using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis. There is Au-Cl bonding by chemical reaction between Cl and Au. During the etching of Au thin films in Cl$_2$/Ar plasma, Au-Cl bond is formed, and these products can be removed by the physical bombardment of Ar ions[l].

The mechanical properties of Al2O3-ZrO2 composites fabricated by RBAO(reaction bonded aluminium oxide) process were investigated. As the amount of ZrO2 increased the sinstered density of Al2O3-ZrO2 composites decreased slightly, but wear resistance was enhanced. Bending strength of Al2O3-ZrO2 composites increased in proportion to the amount of al in case of a fixed ZrO2 content. When the amount of Al was fixed bending strength reached its maximum value at 25 wt% ZrO2. The fracture toughness(K1c) increased with increasing content of ZrO2, but decreased with increasing Al amount. On the other hand, the fracture mode of Al2O3-ZrO2 composites was the mixed mode of inter-and transgranular fracture.

The purpose of this study was to examine the interfacial reaction between diamond grits and Ni-based, Ag-based, brazing filler metal, respectively. The morphology of the interface between diamond grits and Ni-based, filler metal exhibited a very good condition after this heat treatment. Cr-carbide and Ni-rich compounds were detected by XRD analysis in the vicinity of the interface between diamond grits and Ni-based, filler metal after vacuum induction brazing. Chromium carbide is considered to play an important role in the high bonding strength achieved between diamonds grits and the brazing alloy.

A number of hydrophilic acrylic comonomers were incorporated into styrene-butadiene soap-free emulsion polymerization. It was found that reaction rate decreased according to : AN>AA>MMA>EA>IA>AAM>MA>HEMA. It was also observed that reaction rate increased with decreasing H-bonding factor contribution to the solubility parameter of the hydrophilic comonoer. The SBR latexes were very monodisperse with the particle size distribution of $1.03{\times}1.12$. Since growth rate is proportional to polymerization time, the difference in conversion rates between various comonomers was resulted from the particle number density of SBR latexes for the various hydrophilic comonomers. It was also found that the colloidal stability of the latexes was excellent because no external emulsifier was incorporated.
