TiN coating were deposited onto different WC-Co substrates using arc ion plating (AIP) technique. The structure and morphology for the deposited coating were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The adhesion behavior of the deposited TiN coating was investigated with a conventional scratch test. Effects of WC particle size and Co content on the adhesion strength between the deposited TiN coating and substrate were studied. During the scratch test, the value of critical load was dependent of WC particle size and Co content on substrate. As the WC particle size and Co content on substrate decreased, the critical load increased. The highest critical load, approximately 110N, was obtained at WC particle size of 1$\mu\textrm{m}$ and Co content of 10wt.%.

Solder leaching resistance of the metal electrode is an important factor with regard to adhesion properties of ceramic substrate. In the Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics (LTCC), Ag-Pd or Ag-Pt pastes are used instead of pure Ag paste to prevent leaching. Solder leaching behavior of the Ag-Pd paste in relation to LTCC raw material powder size was investigated. First fabrication of LTCC green tape with different particle size was done. LTCC substrates with Ag-Pd electrode were prepared using conventional multilayer ceramic process. Dipping test was performed to test solder leaching behavior of the electrode. Ag-Pd electrode on LTCC substrate with smaller particle size achieved higher solder leaching resistance.

Experimental results of the metal powder production with internal mixing, internal impinging and the atomizer coupled with substrate design are presented in this paper. In a test with internal mixing atomizer, mean powder size was decreased from $37{\mu}m\;to\;23{\mu}m$ for Pb65Sn35 alloy as the gas-to-melt mass ratio was increased from 0.04 to 0.17. The particle size further reduces to $16.01{\mu}m$ as the orifice area is increased to $24mm^2$. The micrograph of the metal powder indicates that very fine and spherical metal powder has been produced by this process. In a test program using the internal impinging atomizers, the mean particle size of the metal powder was decreased from $22{\mu}m\;to\;12{\mu}m$ as the gas-to-melt-mass ratio increased from 0.05 to 0.22. The test results of an atomizer coupled with a substrate indicates that the deposition rate of the molten spray on the substrate is controlled by the diameter of the substrate, the height of the substrate ring and the distance of the substrate from the outlet of the atomizer. This in rum determines the powder production rate of the spraying processes. Experimental results indicate that the deposition rate of the spray forming material decreases as the distance between the substrate and the atomizer increases. For example, the deposition rate decreases from 48% to 19% as the substrate is placed at a distance from 20cm to 40cm. On the other hand, the metal powder production rate and its particle size increases as the subsrate is placed far away from the atomizer. The production of metal powder with mean particle size as low as $3.13{\mu}m$ has been achieved, a level which is not achievable by the conventional gas atomization processes.

The activity of immobilized cell-support particle aggregates is influenced by physical and biochemical elements, mass transfer, and physiology. Accordingly, the mathematical model discussed in this study is capable of predicting the steady state and transient concentration profiles of the cell mass and substrate, plus the effects of the substrate and product inhibition in an immobilized cell-support aggregate. The overall mathematical model is comprised of material balance equations for the cell mass, major carbon source, dissolved oxygen, and non-biomass products in a bulk suspension along with a single particle model. A smaller bead size and higher substrate concentration at the surface of the particle, resulted in a higher supply of the substrate into the aggregate and consequently a higher biocatalyst activity.

For the fabrication of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{x}$ thick film using diffusion process between $Y_3$BaCuO$_{5}$ and BaO+CuO, each material was selected as substrate and doping material. In this paper, we investigated the characteristic of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{x}$ thick film due to both addition of CeO$_2$into substrate and initial particle size of doping material. Through X-ray diffraction patterns and SEM photographs, the variation of composition and thickness of the formed phase was observed. It was from the experiment obtained that the addition of CeO$_2$into $Y_2$BaCuO$_{5}$ substrate and the initial particle size of doping material play important part in promoting the reaction between substrate and doping material.aterial.

This study investigates the effect of particle size on the detergency of particulate soil using an $\alpha-Fe_2O_3$ particle as the model. Monodispersed spherical $\alpha-Fe_2O_3$ particles were prepared by the hydrothermal aging of an acidic $FeCl_3$ and HCl solution. The $\xi$-potential of PET fiber was measured by the streaming potential method. The potential energy of interaction between the particle and fiber was calculated using the heterocoagulation theory for a sphere-plate model. The $\xi$-potential of PET fiber and potential energy of interaction between particles and fiber increased with a decreasing particle size in a DBS solution. However, in the nonionic surfactant solution, the $\xi$-potential signs of PET fiber and $\alpha-Fe_2O_3$ particles were (-) and (+), respectively; there was no repulsive power between the particles and substrate. The adhesion of particles to the fabric increased with increasing particle size in the anionic surfactant solution and their removal from the fabric increased with a decreasing particle size. The adhesion of particles to the fabric and their removal from the fabric was biphasic with a maximum and minimum at 0.1% concentration of the surfactant solution. In the nonionic surfactant solution the adhesion of particles to fabric and their removal from the fabric were greater than the ones in the anionic surfactant DBS solution.

FePt nanoparticles suspension was synthesized by reduction of platinum acetylacetonate and decomposition of iron pentacarbonyl in the presence of oleic acid and oleyl amine. FePt nanoparticles were coated on a substrate by convective assembly from the suspension. To prevent the coalescence during the annealing of FePt nanoparticles double convective coatings were tried. First convective coating was for silica particle assembly on a silicon substrate and second one was for FePt nanoparticles on the previously coated silica layers. It was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) that FePt nanoparticles were dispersed on the silica particle surface. After annealing at $700^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes under nitrogen atmosphere, FePt nanoparticles on silica particles were maintained in a dispersed state with slight increase of particle size. On the contrary, FePt nanoparticles that were directly coated on silicon substrate showed severe particle growth after annealing due to the close-packing of nanoparticles during assembly. The size variation during annealing was also verified by X-ray diffractometer (XRD). It was suggested that pre-coating, which offered solvent flux oppose to the capillary force between FePt nanoparticles, was an effective method to prevent coalescence of nano-sized particles under high temperature annealing.

The predominant sintering mechanisms of low firing temperature ceramic substrate which consists of borosilicate glass containing alumina as a filler are the rearrangement of alumina particles and the viscous flow of glass powders. In this system, sintering condition depends on the volume ratio of alumina to glass and on the particle size. When the substrate contains about 35 vol% alumina filler and the average alumina particle size is 4 $\mu\textrm{m}$, the best firing condition is obtained at the temperature range of 900∼1000$^{\circ}C$. The extensive rearrangement behavior occurs at these conditions, and the optimum sintering condition is attained by smaller size of glass particles, too. The formation of cristobalite during sintering causes the difference of thermal expansion coefficient between the substrate and Si chip. This phenomenon degradates the capacity of Si chip. Therefore, the crystallization should be prevented. In the alumina filled borosilicate glass system, the crystallization does not occur. This effect may have some relation with aluminum ions in alumina. For aluminum ions diffuse into glass matrix during sintering, functiong as network former.

The purpose of this study is to improve the efficiency of anti-pollution film for PV module. The anti-pollution coating process was performed on a glass substrate, which is the same material as the glass substrate for the PV module. We coated the anti-pollution film on the glass substrate by spray coating. After coating process, annealing process was performed during 1 hour at $200^{\circ}C$, $300^{\circ}C$, and $400^{\circ}C$. And then we analyzed the surface characteristics according to the annealing temperature of the film. Annealing process can also improve the durability of the coated film. And then we analyzed the anti-pollution characteristics, particle size of anti-pollution film, light transmittance. The particle size of anti-pollution film was analyzed with FE-SEM. The light transmittance was analyzed with UV-Visible spectroscopy including integrating sphere.

Thin tin oxide film with nano-size particle was prepared on silicon substrate by hydrothermal synthetic method and successive sol-gel spin coating method. The fabrication method of tin oxide film with ultrafine nano-size crystalline structure was tried to be applied to fabrication of micro gas sensor array on silicon substrate. The tin oxide film on silicon substrate was well patterned by chemical etching upto 5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$width and showed very uniform flatness. The tin oxide film preparation method and patterning method were successfully applied to newly proposed 2-dimensional micro sensor fabrication.
