Effects of $Ca(OH)_2$ concentration(0.16~0.64 wt%), total volumetric flow rate(3~6 L/min) and $CO_2$ volume fraction(0.3~0.6) on morphology of the precipitated $CaCO_3$ and the mean particle size of the precipitated $CaCO_3$ were investigated in the slurry bubble column reactor. Experiments were carried out in acrylic reactor($0.11m-ID{\times}1.0m-high$) with a internal tube($0.04m-ID{\times}1.0m-high$). The calibration curve on the mass ratio of $CaCO_3$ to $Ca(OH)_2$ was obtained by FT-IR for the conversion of $Ca(OH)_2$ with the reaction time. The reaction rate of $Ca(OH)_2$ increased with increasing the volumetric flow rate of $CO_2$. From SEM images, the crystal size of $CaCO_3$ increased with increasing the reaction rate in the saturated concentration of $Ca(OH)_2$ (0.16 wt%). In addition, the crystal size of precipitated $CaCO_3$ decreased with increasing the concentration of $Ca(OH)_2$, but the mean particle size of precipitated $CaCO_3$ increased with increasing the concentration of $Ca(OH)_2$.

Reaction kinetics for the solid-state reaction of $\alpha-Al_2O_3$ with amorphous $TiO_2$ to produce $Al_2TiO_5$ (Tialite) was studied in the temperature range of $1200~1300^{\circ}C$. Rate of kinetic reaction were determined by using $TiO_2$-coated $Al_2O_3$ compact containing 50 mol% $TiO_2$ and heating the reactant mixtures in MgO at definite temperature for various times. Amount of products and unreacted reactants were determined by X-ray diffractometry. Data from the volume fraction and ratio of peak intensities of $\beta-Al_2TiO_5$ indicated that the reaction of $\alpha-Al_2O_3$ with $TiO_2$ to form pseudobrookite starts between 1280 and $1300^{\circ}C$. The activation energy for solid-state reaction was determined by using the Arrhenius equation ; The activation energy was 622.4 kJ/mol.

The steel industry, a representative industry that significantly consumes raw materials and energy, produces steel as well as a large amount of by-product steel slag through the production process. The vast habitat foundation of marine life has been destroyed due to recent reckless marine development and environment pollution, resulting in intensification of the decline of marine resources, and a solution to this issue is imperative. In order to propose a method to recycle large amounts of by-product slag into a material that can serve as an alternative to natural aggregate, the engineering properties and applicability for each mixing factor of environment friendly porous concrete as a material for the composition of marine ranches were evaluated in this study. The test results for percentage of voids per mixing ratio revealed that the margin of error for all conditions was within 2.5%. The compressive strength test results showed that the most outstanding environmental friendly porous concrete can be manufactured when mixing 30% slag aggregate and 10% specially treated granular fertilizer for the optimum volume fraction. As concrete for marine applications, the best seawater resistance was obtained with mixing conditions for high compression strength. An assessment of the ability to provide a marine life habitat foundation of environmentally friendly porous concrete showed that a greater percentage of voids facilitated implantation and inhabitation of marine life, and the mixing of specially treated granular fertilizer led to active initial implantation and activation of inhabitation. The evaluation of harmfulness to marine life depending on the mixture of slag aggregate and specially treated granular fertilizer revealed that the stability of fish is secured.

The aim of this research is providing a fundamental idea on reducing viscosity of high performance cementitous materials. In rheological aspect, to determine the fluidity of the cementitious materials, both yield stress and viscosity should be controlled. For the high performance cementitious materials with low water-to-binder ratio and high volume fraction, it was difficult to reduce the viscosity with superplasticizer while reducing yield stress was relatively easy. Hence, in this research, with the goal of reducing viscosity of the cementitious materials, both ways of reducing viscosity were suggested: achieving proper combination of powder conditions, and adding low-viscosity typed water reducer. First, by replacing various byproduct powders, specifically, raw coal ash and wasted limestone powder showed favorable results on reducing viscosity of the cement paste. Regarding the low viscosity typed superplasticizer, it showed a good performance on reducing viscosity comparing with generic superplasticizer. Therefore, based on the results of this research, it is expected to provide a fundamental idea on reducing viscosity of cementitious materials by various methods.

Liquid Chromatographic behavior of Ni(II) in Isonitrosoethylacetoacetate Imine(IEAA-NR), Ni(IEAA-NH)(IEAA-NR)(R = H, CH_3, C-2H_5, n-C_4H_9, C_6H_5-CH_2) chelates were investigated by reversed-phase HPLC on Micropak MCH-5 column using methanol/water as mobile phase. The optimum conditions for the separation of Ni(IEAA-NH)(IEAA-NR) chelates were examined with respect to the effect of the flow rate, sample solvent, mobile phase strength and column temperature. It was fo$und that metal chelates were properly eluted in an acceptable range of capacity factor value(0{\le}logk'{\le}1). The dependence of the logarithm of capacity factor (k') on the volume fraction of water in the binary mobile phase as well as on the liquid-liquid extraction distribution ratio (Dc) in methanol-water/n-alkane extraction system showed the good linearties, and the dependence of the logarithm of capacity factor (k') on the column temperature and on the enthalpy exhibited the good linearties, and the compensation temperature ({\beta}) from the slope was 773.47{\circ}K. It was suggested that the retention of metal chelates was largely affected by the hydrophobic effect.

Some iron(III)porphyrin complexes were prepared, and identified by the spectroscopic methods. Elution behavior of iron(III)porphyrin complexes was investigated by reversed-phase HPLC. The optimum conditions for the separation of iron(III)porphyrin complexes were examined with respect to flow rate and mobile phase strength. These complexes were successfully separated on NOVA-PAK $C_{18}$ column using methanol / water(95/5) for $[T_pCF_3PP)Fe(R)]$ and methanol / water (98/2) for $[(P)Fe(C_6F_5)]$ as a mobile phase. It was found that these complexes were largely eluted in an acceptable range of capacity factor value ($0{\leq}logk'{\leq}1$). The dependence of the capacity factor (k') on the volume fraction of water in the binary mobile phase as well as the dependence of k' on the liquid-liquid extraction distribution ratio$(D_c)$ in methanol-water / n-pentadecane extraction system showed a good linearity. It means that the retention of iron(III)porphyrin complexes on NOVA-PAK $C_{18}$ column is largely due to the solvophobic effect. Also, there was a good linear dependence of the capacity factor(k') on the column temperature and enthalpy calculated by van't Hoff plot. From these results, it was confirmed that the retention mechanism of iron(III)porphyrin complexes in reversed-phase liquid chromatography was invariant under the condition of various temperature, and the solvophobic binding process exhibited isoequilibrium behavior.

The characteristics of particles were evaluated through the measurement data of PM$_{2.5}$, PM$_{10}$ and TSP instruments located in air quality monitoring stations installed and operated by Seoul Metropolitan city. The data of particulate mass on the filter was collected bv a high volume air sampler during the sand storm period. The number of days of sand storm in Seoul showed a different pattern from 1990 to November 2002, We can see a trend of increased occurrence and duration of sand storms. The ratio of PM$_{10}$ to TSP was shown as 52.9% and 59.4% during the sand storm period in 2000 and 2001. respectively. It was indicated that the particles larger than 10${\mu}$m increased by approximately 10% in sand storm periods compared to no sand storm period. While PM$_{10}$ size fraction reached 71.4% in 2002, the contribution of sand storm to total particulate concentration was estimated to be 11.9% for PM$_{2.5}$, 23.1% for PM$_{10}$, 19% for TSP in 2002, respectively and sand storms highly correlated with annual total particulate concentration.

We study free vibration analysis of sigmoid functionally graded materials(S-FGM) nano-scale plates, using a nonlocal elasticity theory of Eringen in this paper. This theory has ability to capture the both small scale effects and sigmoid function in terms of the volume fraction of the constituents for material properties through the plate thickness. Numerical solutions of S-FGM nano-scale plate are presented using this theory to illustrate the effect of nonlocal theory on natural frequency of the S-FGM nano-scale plates. The relations between nonlocal and local theories are discussed by numerical results. Further, effects of (i) power law index (ii) nonlocal parameters, (iii) elastic modulus ratio and (iv) thickness and aspect ratios on nondimensional frequencies are investigated. In order to validate the present solutions, the reference solutions are compared and discussed. The results of S-FGM nano-scale plates using the nonlocal theory may be the benchmark test for the free vibration analysis.

Many researches have been performed on hybrid fiber reinforced concrete for years, which is to improve some of the weak material properties of concrete. Researches on characteristics of hybrid fiber reinforced concrete using amorphous steel fiber and organic fiber, however, yet remain to be done. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to estimate the compressive strength, long term drying shrinkage, and resistance to freezing and thawing of hybrid fiber reinforced concrete(HFRC) using amorphous steel fiber and polyamide fiber as one of organic fibers. For this purpose, HFRCs containing amorphous steel fiber and polyamide fiber were made according to their total volume fraction of 1.0% for target compressive strength of 40 and 60 MPa, respectively, and then the compressive strength, length change, and resistance to freezing and thawing of these were evaluated. As a result, the long term length change ratio of HFRC used in this study decreased by more than 30%, 25% than plain concrete at 365 and 730 days, respectively, and the durability factor of HFRC was very excellent as more than 90%.

To investigate the reinforcing effects of functional fillers in nitrile rubber (NBR) materials, high-structure carbon black (HS45), coated calcium carbonate (C-CaCO3), silica (200MP), and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were used as functional filler, and carbon black (SRF) as a common filler were used for oil-resistant rubber. The curing and mechanical properties of HS45-, 200MP-, and MWCNT-filled NBR compounds were improved compared to those of the SRF-filled NBR compound. The reinforcing effect also increased with a decrease in the particle size of the fillers. The C-CaCO3-filled NBR compound exhibited no reinforcing effect with increasing filler concentration because of their large primary particle size (2 ㎛). The reinforcing behavior based on 100% modulus of the functional filler based NBR compounds was compared by using several predictive equation models. The reinforcing behavior of the C-CaCO3-filled NBR compound was in accordance with the Smallwood-Einstein equation whereas the 200MP- and MWCNT-filled NBR compounds fitted well with the modified Guth-Gold (m-Guth-Gold) equation. The SRF- and HS45-filled NBR compounds exhibited reinforcing behavior in accordance with the Guth-Gold and m-Guth-Gold equations, respectively, at a low filler content. However, the values of reinforcement parameter (100Mf/100Mu) of the SRF- and HS45-filled NBR compounds were higher than those determined by the predictive equation model at a high filler content. Because the chains of SRF composed of spherical filler particles are similarly changed to rod-like filler particles embedded in a rubber matrix and the reinforcement parameter rapidly increased with a high content of HS45, the higher-structured filler. The reinforcing effectiveness of the functional fillers was numerically evaluated on the basis of the effectiveness index (��SRF/��f) determined by the ratio of the volume fraction of the functional filler (��f) to that of the SRF filler (��SRF) at three unit of reinforcing parameter (100Mf/100Mu). On the basis of their effectiveness index, MWCNT-, 200MP-, and HS45-filled compounds showed higher reinforcing effectiveness of 420%, 70%, and 20% than that of SRF-filled compound, respectively whereas C-CaCO3-filled compound exhibited lower reinforcing effectiveness of -50% than that of SRF-filled compound.
