Sodium silicate - the usual portland cement which accomplishes a cement pouring reconsideration main stream and sodium silicate(No.3) after reacting sodium silicate(No.3) with the reaction sodium silicate where oxidation natrium which is included does not react with the cement receiving stiffening water it will burn together on underwater and to become the durability lacks pouring it is recognized. From the hazard which improves an advantage it used the additive which relates in congealing and stiffening of the portland cement and sodium tripolyphosphate(STPP) addition hour initial material age(72 hours at once) which does to be revealed the at high-in-tensity is discovered while accomplishing. The effect of additives on the reactions of sodium silicate solution and cement suspesion was investigated by various physical and chemical tests, such as Si-NMR, XRD, SEM uniaxial compression test. The additives were STPP(sodium tripolyphosphate), EDTA, SUGAR. The compressive strength of sodium silicate(No.3) - cement grout with additives was about $1.5{\sim}10$ times higher than that without additive in early age(72 hours).

The engineering properties of composite silicate grout materials that were developed recently were analyzed. In this laboratory tests, OPC (Ordinary Portland Cement) was mainly used as grout materials. Moreover, the properties of composite silica, silica sol and sodium silicate (No.3) acting as coagulating agent were analyzed and compared with each other. For the purpose of finding the engineering properties of composite silicate grout materials, various physical and chemical tests were performed : naked eye measurement, photographing by using SEM, uniaxial compression test and in-situ application test. A series of test results showed that the strength of composite silicate grout materials was about 3～6 times that of ordinary sodium silicate grout materials in 6～24hr. Especially, based on the evaluation of the application of JS-CGM grout to the construction fields, composite silicate grout would be very effective in reducing the coefficient of permeability.

Portland cement and sodium silicate are widely used as the main components of the injection, which are used to prevent flow and improve ground condition. The main problem of the injection material is the leaching of the sodium hydroxite and silicate due to the limited reaction with the cement. This paper studies the effect of cement hydration retarder on the compressive strength of the sodium silicate - cement gel. A series of tests, including digital-type testing machine, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope are performed. Results clearly demonstrate that the sodium tripolyphosphate, which is the cement hydration retarder in the test, significantly improves the initial strength of the homogel.

The effect of sodium gluconic acid on the collapsability of the sodium silicate type $CO_2$ mold was studied. The bending strength was saturated with gassing $CO_2$ for 60 sec. under $1kg/cm^2$ and with the flow rate of $10\;{\ell}\;/min$. It was decreased with aging after having been fully hardened. The retained strength was reduced in the heating temperature range of $100{\sim}1,100^{\circ}C$ and the retained strength peak near the heating temperature of $100^{\circ}C$ was removed by the effect of the sodium gluconic acid. Silica gel, $Na_2CO_3$ and dehydrated sodium silicates were formed from the binder of sodium silicate with the addition of sodium gluconic acid at the heating temperature of $100^{\circ}C$. $Na_4SiO_4$ was formed by the reaction of $Na_2O$, from decomposed $Na_2CO_3$, with the dehydrated sodium silicate at $500^{\circ}C$. The crystobalite type of $SiO_2$ was formed at $900^{\circ}C$. The sodium gluconic acid had no effect on the bending strength at around $1,100^{\circ}C$ due to the combustion loss of it.

Instant face lifting cosmetics contain various film forming agents for stretching the wrinkles on the skin surface. But, most of the film-forming polymers have sticky feels. And they are easily scrubbed out when skin is rubbed on. In this study, we focused on the influence of sodium silicate that has rapid film forming effect on skin surface and immediate wrinkle reducing effect. Sodium silicate, also known as water glass or soluble glass, is a compound containing sodium oxide and silica. Sodium silicate is a white powder that is readily soluble in water, producing an alkaline solution. Sodium silicate is stable in neutral and alkaline solutions. The sodium silicate solution hardens by drying in air and rapidly forms a thin film. When the solution is applied to the skin, the fine membrane coating is formed by water evaporation and ionic bond re-formation. It also makes the strong siloxane (Si-O) bonding on the skin surface. When these fixation properties are applied to cosmetics, they can give remarkable skin tightening effect. The sodium silicate solution can provide the lifting effect by forming a film on skin at a proper concentration. But, skin irritation may be caused with too high concentration of sodium silicate. We studied a desirable range of the sodium silicate concentration and combination with other fixatives for skin care formulation that has no sticky feels and no scrubbing out phenomenon. Immediate lifting gel was developed by using sodium silicate and various thickening systems. Among of the various thickeners, aluminum magnesium silicate showed the best compatibility with sodium silicate for rapid lifting effect. This instant physical lifting gel was confirmed as a low stimulating formula by skin clinical test.

This study aims to develop a bio-grouting material in a powder form like cement. Sand gel samples were produced with the ratio of sodium silicate No.3 to water (50 : 50, 35 : 65, 20 : 80), and the ratio of cement to bio-grouting material (100 : 0, 90 : 10, 70 : 30) to select a mixing ratio of bio-grouting, respectively, and then analyzed the geltime over time. The uniaxial compressive strength was evaluated to select and suggest a mixing ratio optimized for construction conditions. The indoor test reveals that preferred geltime and uniaxial compressive strength is obtained in 35 : 65 with respect to the ratio of sodium silicate No.3 to water, and 90 : 10 with respect to the ratio of cement to bio-grouting material to demonstrate best optimal mixing ratios.

Effect of catalysts, which was catalyzed by acid(HCl and HNO3) and base(NH4OH), on characteristics of the mullite powders prepared by sol-gel methdo wa sinvestigated by XRD, TGA, SEm AND BET. As a result, weight loss as a function of catalysts was in order of HCl=32.6%>HNO3=25.44%>Non=24.0%>NH4OH=22.5%. The mullite powder dried at 100$^{\circ}C$ appeared spherical shape in acid catalyst and different shape in base catalyst, but sintering powder at 1400$^{\circ}C$ appeared very fine particle of 0.05∼0.1$\mu\textrm{m}$ regardless of catalysts. In all cae, the pore quantity, which was capable to adsoprtion, was decreased with increasing temperature. In base catalyst, no change of special surface area in mullite appeared.

This study was intended to evaluate the improved strength of the ground by applying the bio grouting method to a loose sandy ground. The injection material was prepared in the form of cement-like powder, with the bio injection material produced by microbial reactions. The grouting test was conducted under the conditions similar to the field where the bio injection material can be applied. In addition, the injection materials (cement and sodium silicate No. 3) used for Labile Waterglass (LW) method and the conventional grouting methodwere prepared through a two-solution one-step process. The injection into the specimens was done at a pressure of 150 kPa and then, with a bender element, their moduliof elasticity were measured on the 7th, 14th, 21st and 28th curingdays to analyze their strengths according to the duration of curing. It was confirmed that in all injection materials the moduli of elasticity increased over time. In particular, when 30% of the bio injection material was added to 100% cement, the modulus of elasticity tended to increase by about 15%. This confirmed that the applicability became higher when the bio injection material was used in place of the conventional sodium silicate.

The residual effect of silicate fertilizer (crushed slag from the steel industry) on rice yield was evaluated through 4-year field experiments. Applications of the silicate fertilizer at rate of 2500 kg/ha to Gangseo sandy loam soil (Fluvaquentic Eutrochrepts) very low in available silica increased the grain yield by 7 to 12% depending on the mesh size of the fertilizer in the first year. The yield in the fourth year showed no residual effect. Seventeen to eighteen months after the application, available silica content of the soil (1N-sodium acetate extractable) decreased down to 130 ppm which is a, base level for the silicate fertilizer application. Decreasing tendency of available silica concentration of the soil with time differed according to the mesh size of the silicate fertilizer applied. In 36 to 48 months after the application, the extractable silica content of the soil converged to 90 to 100 ppm.

The synthetic technology of improved polyaluminiumchloride (IPAC) similar to characteristics of PACS was established with minimum expense for modifying existing production line. The conditions for activating silicate was studied before the synthesis of IPAC, and the IPAC was synthesised with raw materials such as aluminumhydroxide and concentrated hydrochloric acid, followed by adding activated silicate and alginate. The specification of product, chemical structure, and coagulating properties were tested by using specification testing method, instrumental analytical method, and Jar tester, respectively. As a result, the product, IPAC, contained aluminium oxide content more than 17%, and no precipitation was shown at all while the IPAC solution was preserved, and the larger floc and faster coagulation were represented compared to existing PAC under the same conditions. It was suggested that these synthetic technology could be applied to the existing production line for producing PAC without approximately cost raising factor because of adding sulfuric acid-activated silicate instead of sodium sulfate.
