In this paper, we studied the short circuit current and molten mark of polyvinyl chloride insulated flexible cords(VFF). The calory decreased remarkably with increase of current. The surface structure and composition of a strand wire were analyzed by stereoscope, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy(EDX). The surface of a strand wire showed columnar and void. The intensity of CuL spectrum increased in melted mark.

In this study, CdSe-$TiO_2$ photocatalyst were synthesized by a facile solvothermal method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis and UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectrophotometer. The photocatalytic activity was investigated by degrading methylene blue (MB) in aqueous solution under irradiation of UV light as well as visible light. The absorbance of degraded MB solution was determined by UV-vis spectrophotometer. The results revealed that the CdSe-$TiO_2$ photocatalyst exhibited much higher photocatalytic activity than $TiO_2$ both under irradiation of UV light as well as visible light.

Joining or welding of dissimilar metallic materials is very difficult problem because material properties like heat conductivity, melting points, coefficient of thermal expansion, etc. are different each other and cracks are occurred easily due to formation of intermetallic compounds. Nevertheless, deep attention from great industrial demands and trials to joining dissimilar materials has been increased steadily. In this study, TIG welding of Cu to Al is tried and tensile test, SEM and EDX analysis are carried out.

In this study, we used activated carbon(AC) as a carbon source, along with zeolite, to prepare spherical carbons using sucrose, starch and phenolic resin(PR) as binder material. The physicochemical characteristics of the three samples(AZ4P, AZ6P and AZ8P) were examined by BET, XRD, SEM, EDX, $H_2S/NH_3$ gas adsorption, compressive strength and ignition test techniques. Through comparative analysis of the compressive strength and ignition test results the AZ8P sample was found to have the best hardness and the highest temperature resistance capacity. After activation, the AZ8P sample had the best $H_2S$ adsorption capacity, and AZ6P was the most suitable for the adsorption of ammonia.

To improve the efficiency of the high voltage cable for BLU(backlight unit) of TFT-LCD(Thin Film Transistor-Liquid Crystal Display), the analysis for the trial products(UL3239, UL3633) is conducted by using SEM(scanning electron microscope) and EDX(Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy). The result that it is possible to accumulate the know-how to about stranding pitch through effective improvement of stranding process. The troubles which are the badness of withstanding voltage and tensile strength etc. are solved by development of excellent material. Furthermore, phenomenon of conductor unfasten in the harness work is solved by improvement of the stranding wire process.

We examined the photo catalytic activity and catalytic recyclability of CdSe/graphene nanocomposites fabricated via modified hydrothermal technique. The prepared composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopic analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The photocatalytic behavior was investigated through decomposition of RBB as a standard dye under visible light radiation. Our results indicate that there is significant potential for graphene based semiconductor hybrids materials to be used as photocatalysts under visible light irradiation for the degradation of organic dyes from industry effluents.

The composition, weight decrease, DTA, and surface structure of vinyl insulated wire with thermal treatment conditions have been investigated. The composition of Cu by EDX analysis indicates Cu, Cl, and O lines, and oxidation reaction results from thermal treatment. Thermal treated IV and HIV appeared chemical reaction at $269^{\circ}C$ and $265^{\circ}C$, respectively. SEM of thermal treated Cu at $250^{\circ}C$ disappears an elongation structure, and appears an original structure.

The electrochemical removal (ECR) of water pollutants by activated carbon fiber (ACF) electrodes from wastewater was investigated over wide range of electrochemical reaction time. The ECR capacities of ACF electrodes were associated with their internal porosity and were related to physical properties and to reaction time. And, surface morphologies and elemental analysis for the ACFs after electrochemical reaction are investigated by SEM and EDX to explain the changes in adsorption properties. The FT-IR spectra of ACFs for the investigation of functional groups show that the electrochemical treatment is consequently associated with the homogeneous removal of pollutants with the increasing surface reactivity of the activated carbon fiber surfaces. The ACFs were electrochemically reacted to waste water to investigate the removal efficiency for the COD, T-N and T-P. From these removal results of pollutants using ACFs substrate, satisfactory removal performance was obtained. The outstanding removal effects of the ACFs substrate were determined by the properties of the material for adsorption and trapping of organics, and catalytic effects.

In this study, we prepared graphene by using the modified Hummers-Offeman method and then introduced the metals (Pt, Pd and Fe) for dispersion on the surface of the graphene for synthesis of metal-graphene composites. The characterization of the prepared graphene and metal-graphene composites was performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). According to the results, it can be observed that the prepared graphene consists of thin stacked flakes of shapes having a well-defined multilayered structure at the edge. And the metal particles are dispersed uniformly on the surface of the graphene with an average particle size of 20 nm.

A preliminary study has been conducted to demonstrate the effect of laser heat treatment on Ni Ti alloy dental arch wires ($0.016"\;{\times}\;0.022"$ and $0.018"\;{\times}\;0.026"$, rectangular shape). Changes in mechanical and thermal properties and surface morphologies are investigated by using optical and scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive x-ray microprobe analysis(EDX), differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), and micro hardness tester. The results indicate that the laser can affect the thermal equilibrium state of the localized surface. Titanium rich surface film is formed by the laser treatment. The surface film and rapidly resolidified underlying structures show better chemical resistance than the matrix material. Phase transition temperatures which are related to shape recovery temperatures are changed after laser treatment. Hardness of resolidified area and heat affected zone are lower than before treatment.
