Titanium carbonitride (Ti(CxN1-x)) ceramics were prepared by hot pressing of the mixture of TiN and graphite. Hot pressing was performed in a graphite mold at 198$0^{\circ}C$ for 40 min under 44 MPa in N2 atmosphere. The effect of graphite addition on sinterability and the mechanical properties of titanium carbonitride were investigated. In this study, the solubility limit of graphite in Ti(CxN1-x) was slightly below 10 wt% based on the results of XRD analysis. Within the solubility limit, graphite dissolved completely into titanium nitride and formed the single phase Ti(CxN1-x) solid solution. Peak relative density of 99% and hardness of 16 GPa were observed for Ti(CxN1-x) ceramics with 7 wt% graphite while maximum flexural strength of 500 MPa and fracture toughness of 4.0 MPa.m1/2 were observed for Ti(CxN1-x) ceramics with 10 wt% graphite. The electrical resistivities of the ceramics with 7 wt% and 10 wt% graphite were observed 40 {{{{ mu OMEGA }}cm and 50 {{{{ mu OMEGA }}cm respectively.

95Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-5PbTiO3 (hereinafter designated as 95PMN-5PT) system was prepared by the columbite-precursor method with 2 mol% excess PbO to compensate the PbO loss during thermal process. The amount of CuO was 1~10 mol%, and the effects of CuO addition on the dielectric properties of this system have been investigated. From the microstructures, XRD analysis and dielectric measurements, the solubility limit of CuO in 95PMN-5PT was found to be around 3 mol%. Lattice parameter and Curie temperature were found to be decreased as the amount of CuO increased up to the solubility limit. This result confirmed that the Cu2+-ions substituted the Pb2+-ions. It was revealed that the addition of CuO on 95PMN-5PT promoted the sinterability and properties. The room temperature dielectric constant, the loss factor and the specific resistivity of the specimens processed with optimum conditions were 23000, 1%, and 8$\times$1011Ω.cm, respectively.

[ $Al_2TiO_5$ ]has a high refractive index and good solubility of the chromophore in the $Al_2TiO_5$ lattice, which allows this structure to be a good candidate for the development of new ceramic pigments. However, pure $Al_2TiO_5$ is well known to decompose on firing at $900{\sim}1100^{\circ}C$. However, this process can be inhibited by the incorporation of certain metal cations into its crystalline lattice. In this study, the synthesis of gray ceramic pigment was performed by doping cobalt on the $Al_2TiO_5$ crystal structure. The $Al_2TiO_5$ was synthesized using $Al_2O_3$ and $TiO_2$, and doped with $Co_3O_4$ as a chromophore material. In order to prevent the thermal decomposition during the cooling procedure, MgO was added to samples by 0.05 mole, 0.1 mole, and 0.15 mole as a stabilizer. The samples were fired at $1500^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours and cooled naturally. The crystal structure, solubility limit, and color of the synthesized pigment were analyzed using XRD, Raman spectroscopy, UV, and UV-vis. $Al_2O_3$ was available for the formation of $CoAl_2O_4$, which should also be considered in order to explain the small amount of this phase detected in the sample with the higher $Co^{2+}$ content (${\geq}$ 0.03 mole). It was found that the solubility limit of $Co^{2+}$ in the $Al_2TiO_5$ crystal was 0.02 mole% through an analysis of Raman spectroscopy. Through the addition of a pigment with 0.02 mole% of $Co^{2+}$ to lime-barium glaze, stabilized gray color pigments with 66.54, -2.35, and 4.68 as CIE-$L^*a^*b^*$ were synthesized.

Glutamic acid can be crystallized inside cation exchange column when displacer NaOH concentration is high enough to concentrate displaced glutamic acid beyond its solubility limit. Resulting crystal layer of glutamic acid was moved with liquid phase through the column, and thus could be eluted from the column and recovered in fraction collector. For the purpose of enhancing crystal recovery, effects of operating parameters on the crystal formation were investigated. The increase in the degree of crosslinking of resin favored crystal recovery because of its low degree of swelling. Higher concentration of displacer NaOH was advantageous. If NaOH concentration is too high, however, crystal recovery was lowered due to the solubility-enhancing effects of high pH and ionic strength. The decrease of mobile phase flow rate enhanced crystal recovery because enough time to attain local equilibrium could be provided, but film diffusion would control the overall crystal formation with extremely low flow rate. Lower temperature reduced solubility of glutamic acid and thus favored crystal formation unless the rate of ion exchange was severely reduced. The ion exchange operated by displacement mode coupled with crystallization was advantageous in reducing the burden of further purification steps and in preventing purity-loss resulted from overlapping between adjacent bands.

Polycrystalline samples of $(Ru_{0.8}Nb_{0.2})Sr_2(Gd_{1.5-x}Nd_xCe_{0.5})Cu_2O_z$($ 0{\leq}x{\leq}1.25$) have been synthesized by a solid-state reaction route. The X-ray diffraction data revealed that the Nd solubility limit can be placed between x=0.5 and x=0.75. The superconducting transition temperature decreased with increasing Nd content, confirming that Nd entered the lattice. Room-temperature thermoelectric power measurements showed that all the samples are in the underdoped state and the partial substitution of Nd for Gd resulted in a decrease in the carrier density on the superconducting layers.

Equilibrium concentrations of major elements in an underground repository with a capacity of 100,000 drums have been simulated using the geochemical computer code (EQMOD). The simulation has been carried out at the conditions of pH 12 to 13.5, and Eh 520 and -520 mV. Solubilities of magnesium and calcium decrease with the increase of pH. The solubility of iron increases with pH at Eh -520 mV of reducing environment while it almost entirely exists as the precipitate of Fe(OH)$_3$(s) at Eh 520 mV of oxidizing environment. All of cobalt and nickel are predicted to be dissolved in the liquid phase regardless of pH since the solubility limit is greater than the total concentration. In the case of cesium and strontium, all forms of both ions are present in the liquid phase because they have negligible sorption capacity on cement and large solubility under disposal atmosphere. And thus the total concentration determines the equilibrium concentration. Adsorbed amount of iodide and carbonate are dependent on adsorption capacity and adsorption equilibrium constant. Especially, the calcite turns out to be a solubility-limiting phase on the carbonate system. In order to validate the model, the equilibrium concentrations measured for a number of systems which consist of iron, cement, synthetic groundwater and radionuclides are compared with those predicted by the model. The concentrations between the model and the experiment of nonadsorptive elements cesium, strontium, cobalt nickel and iron, are well agreed. It indicates that the assumptions and the thermodynamic data in this work are valid. Using the adsorption equilibrium constant as a free parameter, the experimental data of iodide and carbonate have been fitted to the model. The model is in a good agreement with the experimental data of the iodide system.

ZnO내 $Al_2$ $O_3$의 고용은 $Al^{3+}$ 의 ZnO 결정의 $Zn^{2+}$자리, 즉 wurtizite 구조에서 4개의 산소가 만드는 4면체 공간자리로서 치환반응으로 정의될 수 있다. 이 반응은 아연-빈자리 혹은 산소-빈자리와 연관되어 일어나므로 ZnO의 비화학량론성 및 결정결함반응들과 상관관계를 가진다. 이러한 상호연관성은 아연-빈자리 및 산소분압(P $o_2$) 의존성을 낳으며, 결과적으로 ZnO내 Al 용해도([Al/sug zn/]$_{max}$)의 산소분압 의존성을 야기한다. 본 논문은 ZnO내에 Al의 용해도는 산소분압이 증가하면 감소한다는 것을 처음으로 곗나하여 보고한다.

$Pb(Zr_{0.525} Ti_{0.475})O_3$ piezoelectric ceramics both unmodified and doped with NiO were prepared by the conventional oxide techniques using sintering temperature from 900 to to 125$0^{\circ}C$. The difference in densification process between unmodified and NiO doped PZT ceramics was studied by shrinkage vs. firing temperatures and it was caused by increasing defect concentration in calcining process of NiO doped PZT ceramics. And nickel oxide solubility limit for $Pb(Zr_{0.525} Ti_{0.475})O_3$ ceramics is shown to be at the range from 0.2wt% to 0.5wt% from this defect model micro-structures dielectric and piezolectric properties of Nio doped PZT ceramics.

미세조직에 따라 기계적 성질 및 내산화성.내부식성 등의 제반 성질이 크게 변하는 Zr계 핵연료 피복관은 미세조직의 최적화가 중요하다. 이러한 미세조직은 합금원소의 고용도에 크게 의존하지만, Zr은 대부분의 용질합금원소의 고용도가 매우 작아서 측정이 곤란하였다. 본 연구에서는 핵연료 피복관 재료의 주요한 기본조성 재료인 Zr-0.8Sn 합금에 대한 Nb의 고용도를 TEP 측정방법을 이용하여 연구하였으며, 광학현미경과 전자현미경으로 미세조직을 관찰하여 이를 확인하였다. 균질화 처리온도가 증가함에 따라 고용된 Nb 함량이 증가하여 Zr-0.8Sn 합금의 TEP는 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 처리온도가 더욱 증가하면 TEP의 포화가 발생하였는데 이는 TEP에 영향을 미치는 고용된 합금원소의 함량 변화가 없기 때문이다. 따라서, TEP의 포화영역이 나타나기 시작하는 균질화 처리온도가 첨가된 Nb이 Zr-0.8Sn 합금에 모두 고용되는 시점이며, 이를 토대로 온도에 따른 Zr-0.8Sn 합금에서의 Nb 고용도 ($C_{Nb}$ )를 $4.69097{\times}10^{16}{\times}e^{-25300\times\;I/T}$(ppm.at.%)로 나타낼 수 있었다.
