We have studied the effect of C/Ti atomic ratio of TiCx (x=0.5, 0.75 and 1.0) raw powder on the properties of the Ti-Mo-WTiC sintered hard alloy. The decrease of C/Ti atomic ratio accelerated the densification in the sintering process. The hardness was remarkably improved up to 1350HV with decreasing the C/Ti atomic ratio because of increase of TiCx phase volume content and its fine dispersion. From the results of electro-chemical tests in acid and 3% NaCl solutions, it was obvious that every alloy had excellent corrosion resistance, which meant about 200 times better than that of WC-Co cemented carbide.

To investigate the effect of tungsten addition on mechanical properties, we prepared refractory (62χ)Nb-18Si-l00Mo-l0Ti-χW (χ=0, 5, 10 and 15 mol.%) in-situ composites by the conventional arc-casting technique, and then explored the microstructure, hardness and elastic modulus at ambient temperature and tensile properties at 1670 K. The microstructure consists of relatively fine (Nb, Mo, W, Ti)/sub 5/Si₃, silicide and a Nb solid solution matrix, and the fine eutectic microstructure becomes predominant at a Si content of around 18 mol.%. The hardness of (Nb, Mo, W, Ti(/sub 5/Si₃, silicide in a W-free sample is 1680 GPa, and goes up to 1980 GPa in a W 15 mol.% sample. The hardness, however, of Nb solid solution does not exhibit a remarkable difference when the nominal W content is increased. The elastic modulus shows a similar tendency to the hardness. The optimum tensile properties of the composites investigated are achieved at W 5 mol.% sample, which exhibits a relatively good ultimate strength of 230 MPa and an excellent balance of yield strength of 215 MPa, and an elongation of 3.7%. The SEM fractography generally indicates a ductile fracture in the W-free sample, and a cleavage rupture in W-impregnated ones.

나노결정질 다이아몬드(Nanocrystalline Diamond: NCD) 박막은 고경도와 낮은 마찰계수를 가지고 있어 고속도강과 같은 절삭공구 위에 코팅하여 공구의 성능 향상을 도모하고자 하는 노력이 있어 왔다. 그러나 NCD 박막의 잔류응력이 크고, 철계금속에는 NCD가 증착되지 않는다는 문제점이 있다. 잔류응력 완화와 다이아몬드 핵생성을 위하여 제3의 중간층 재료가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 Ti과 W을 중간층으로 하여 고속도강(SKH51)에 NCD 박막을 코팅하고 기계적 특성을 비교하였다. 고속도강 위에 DC 마그네트론 스퍼터를 이용하여 2 ${\mu}m$ 두께의 Ti 또는 W 중간층을 증착하고, 그 위에 Microwave Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition (MPCVD) 방법으로 NCD 박막을 2 ${\mu}m$ 두께로 코팅 한 것과 Ti, W순으로 각각 1 ${\mu}m$ 두께로 증착 후 그 위에 NCD 박막을 2 ${\mu}m$ 두께로 코팅 한 시편을 비교하였다. 세 가지 종류의 시편에 대하여 FESEM을 이용하여 표면과 단면의 형상을 관찰하였고, XRD와 Raman spectroscopy를 통해 NCD 박막의 결정성을 확인하였다. 그리고 Tribometer를 이용해 코팅된 박막의 내마모성을 비교하였으며 Rockwell C Indentation test를 이용하여 접합력을 비교하였다. 연구 결과 Ti/W 복합중간층 위에 코팅된 NCD의 접합력이 가장 우수하였으며 그 다음 W, Ti 순으로 나타났다. NCD와 고속도강의 큰 열팽창계수 차이가 복합중간층으로 인해 줄어들고 잔류응력이 완화되어 접합력이 향상되는 것으로 여겨진다.

In this paper, characteristics of Ta-Ti alloy was studied as a gate electrode for NMOS devices to replace the widely used polysilicon. Ta-Ti alloy was deposited directly on $SiO_2$ by a co-sputtering method using two of Ta and Ti targets. The sputtering power of each metal target was 100W. To compare with Ta-Ti, Ta deposited with a 100W sputtering power was fabricated as well. In order to investigate the thermal/chemical stability of the Ta-Ti alloy gate, the alloy was annealed at $600^{\circ}C$ with rapid thermal annealer. No appreciable degradation of the device was observed. Also the results of electrical analysis showed that the work function of Ta-Ti metal alloy was about 4.1eV which was suitable for NMOS devices and sheet resistance of alloy was lower than that of polysilicon.

In this study, we report the microstructure and characterization of Ta₂₀Nb₂₀V₂₀W₂₀Ti₂₀ high-entropy alloy powders and sintered samples. The effects of milling time on the microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated in detail. Microstructure and structural characterization were performed by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The mechanical properties of the sintered samples were analyzed through a compressive test at room temperature with a strain rate of 1 × 10^-4 s^-1. The microstructure of sintered Ta₂₀Nb₂₀V₂₀W₂₀Ti₂₀ high-entropy alloy is composed of a BCC phase and a TiO phase. A better combination of compressive strength and strain was achieved by using prealloyed Ta₂₀Nb₂₀V₂₀W₂₀Ti₂₀ powder with low oxygen content. The results suggest that the oxide formed during the sintering process affects the mechanical properties of Ta₂₀Nb₂₀V₂₀W₂₀Ti₂₀ high-entropy alloys, which are related to the interfacial stability between the BCC matrix and TiO phase.

In this study, we investigated the $NH_3$ oxidation reaction characteristic over $W/TiO_2$ catalyst in order to control $NH_3$ generated from a thermoelectric power plant or incinerator. As a result, it was found that the optimal content of tungsten in $W/TiO_2$ catalyst is 10 wt% and $NH_3$ removal efficiency decreased due to decreasing specific surface areas of catalyst with increasing tungsten contents. When $NH_3$ was injected more than 420 ppm, $NH_3$ conversion decreased at the middle temperature range. In addition, $NH_3$ conversion decreased due to the competitive adsorption of moisture and with increasing oxygen concentration, the $NH_3$ conversion increased while the $N_2$ selectivity decreased.

The photocatalytic degradation of Mordant Yellow-12 (MY-12) was investigated using a UV-Visible Spectrophotometer and pH meter. The UV-Visible absorbance spectra of the MY-12 contaminated water before and after treatment were presented in figure. The decrease of absorbance occurs at the range of 250 and 450 nm, this result suggests that photocatalytic degradation involves destruction of the aromatic rings in this experiment. More than 32% of the MY-12 was decomposed after one hour in 26-W fluorescent lamp, whereas it was 17% and 24% respectively in 15-W and 21-W lamps. MY-12 was decomposed completely after three hours in 26-W fluorescent lamp. The destruction rate constants were calculated from the change of absorbance and pH.

Nanofibers have a large potential in air filtration applications. In this work, we have developed a photocatalytic polyvinyl alcohol PVA/$TiO_2$ nanofibers membrane for the treatment of air filtration by using electrospinning method. PVA were electrospun into nanofibrous membranes and $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were loaded in PVA nanofibers in various contents from 10% (w/w) to 50% (w/w). The UV-Vis spectra were conducted for testing the existence of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles in PVA fibers. SEM analysis indicated that $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were loaded on the surface of PVA fibers and dispersed linearly along the fiber direction, which originated from the effect of polarization and orientation caused by high electric field. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to determine the crystalline of the membrane. Tensile strength was measured to evaluate the physical properties of the membrane. Therefore, our work suggested that PVA/$TiO_2$ nanofiber membrane has a potential application in air filtration area.

The effect of TiO$_2$addition has been studied on the power loss, density, initial permeability, resistivity, and microstructure of Mn-Zn ferrites. TiO$_2$addition increased the density of sintered body and decreased of the initial permeability. Activation energy for electron hopping as well as electrical resistivity increased with TiO$_2$addition. The toroidal core sintered at 1150 $^{\circ}C$ with 1.5 wt% of TiO$_2$demonstrated the power loss of 83 mW/㎤ at 1 MHz, 25 mT, 8$0^{\circ}C$. However, the same specimen sintered at 120$0^{\circ}C$ lead to the power loss, 1168 mW/㎤ at 1 MHz, 25 mT, 8$0^{\circ}C$ and developed an exaggerated grain growth.
