Four designed $Nb_{3}$Sn superconductors have been fabricated in order to investigate the effect of pre-heat treatment for internal tin process. 3 types of sub-elements and 2 types of Sn reservers were fabricated. Diffusion of Sn is better in the strand divided Sn equally than in the strand had one large Sn reserver during pre heat-treatment.

The low-temperature sinterability of TiO₂-CuO systems was investigated using a solid solution of SnO₂. Sample powders were prepared through conventional ball milling of mixed raw powders. With the SnO₂ content, the compositions of the samples were Ti_1-xSn_xO₂-CuO(2 wt.%) in the range of x ≤ 0.08. Compared with the samples without SnO₂ addition, the densification was enhanced when the samples were sintered at 900℃. The dominant mass transport mechanism seemed to be grain-boundary diffusion during heat treatment at 900℃, where active grain-boundary diffusion was responsible for the improved densification. The rapid grain growth featured by activated sintering was also obstructed with the addition of SnO₂. This suggested that both CuO as an activator and SnO₂ dopant synergistically reduced the sintering temperature of TiO₂.

Sn whiskers are one of the serious causes of the failure of electronics. Sn whiskers grow spontaneously from Sn-based, lead-free finished surfaces, even at room temperature. A primary factor of these Sn whiskers growth is compressive stress, which enhances the diffusion of Sn or other elements. The sources of compressive stress are the growth of non-uniform large intermetallic compounds along the interface between the Sn grain boundary and Cu substrate. Recent studies revealed the methods for reducing Sn whisker growth. This paper gives an overview about recent researches for mitigation methods of Sn whisker growth during nearly room temperature storage.

This work investigated the stability of a Sn-modified Pt electrode, which was used for reduction of nitrate, fabricated by an adsorption or electro-deposition of Sn on Pt. In order to find the causes for instability of the electrode, the effects of the solutions in which the electrode was used and the potential applied to the electrode on the electrochemical and metallurgical behaviors of Sn on Pt were studied. The Sn of freshly- prepared modified-Sn Pt electrode existed as Sn hydroxide form, which brought about an easy loss of the electro-activity of the electrode even staying in water, especially in acid solution. When the Sn-modified Pt electrode was used for the reduction of nitrate, the electro-activity of the electrode was affected depending on the potential applied to the electrode. When a more negative potential than the redox equilibrium potential between $Sn(OH)_2$ and Sn was applied to the electrode, the Sn hydroxide was converted to Sn that could diffused into Pt, which leaded to the loss of electro-activity of the electrode as well. The solid diffusion of Sn increased linearly with the applied potential. The Sn-electrodeposited Pt electrode which had more Sn on the electrode was more favorable to maintaining the integrity of the electrode during the reduction of nitrate than the Sn-adsorbed Pt electrode prepared in the under-potential deposition way.

The network analysis is done to explore what kind if issues are diffused about earthquake and the role of social media. The types of disaster information is classified into formal and informal. The role of actor is classified based on the concentrativeness and the diffusion of issue. Youttube is functioned as a formal channel and an informal channel when disaster happened. In case of government's video, issue contractiveness is high but the diffusion is low. In case of media's video, issue contractiveness and the diffusion are all high. In case of individual channel, issue contractiveness is low, but diffusion is high. In disaster, youtube is a tool to respread the disaster issue. Government needs to try diffusion of government's news actively in disaster.

A study on the improvement of wear resistance of brasses by electroplating and diffusion treatment of tin was carried out. The optimum condition of the treatment obtained was as follows. Plating thickness of tin : 5 - 9 $\mu\textrm{m}$ Condition of diffusion treatment : atmosphere ; fused nitrate bath (KNO3 + NaNO3) temperature and time ; 1st step 320$^{\circ}C$, 60min. and 450$^{\circ}C$, 30min. During the diffusion treatment, internetallic compounds of Cu-Sn were formed and these compounds were identified as η, $\varepsilon$ and $\delta$ phase from the outer tin layer. It was considered that the improvement of wear resistance of brasses by the treatment is because of the formation of intemetallic compounds particalarly $\varepsilon$phase which is very hard, between soft tin layer brass.

$Nb_3Sn$ superconducting wires were fabricated in order to investigate the effect of pre-heat treatment for internal tin process. 2 types of Sn reservoir were fabricated. One was arranged one large Sn reservoir in the center of wire, the other arranged several Sn reservoirs inthe wire. Diffusion of Sn is better in the strand divided Sn equally than in the strand had one large Sn reservoir during pre heat-treatment. Critical current was better in the wires divided Sn reservoirs uniformly after whole heat treatment.

The effects of sintering atmosphere and dopant addition on the behavior of densification and grain growth of SnO2 ceramics were investigated with consideration of defect chemistry. CoO and Nb2O5 were chosen as dopants, and oxygen and nitrogen were used for controlling of sintering atmospheres. With the decrease of oxygen partial pressure, densification was depressed due to evaporation of SnO2 ceramics. In the case of SnO2 sintering, the addition of CoO, which produced oxygen vacancy in SnO2 ceramics, led to acceleration of densification and grain growth. On the contrary, when Nb2O5 as a dopant producing Sn vacancy was added to SnO2 ceramics, densification and grain growth were simultaneously retarded. As results, it was conformed that diffusion of oxygen ions was rate determinant in densification and grain growth of SnO2 ceramics.
