We tried to prepare polystyrene composite particles containing carbon black by suspension polymerization with water as a reaction medium. Hydrophobic silica was selected as a stabilizer and oil-soluble azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN), as an initiator. All polymerization reactions were carried out at a fixed temperature of $75^{\circ}C$. Stabilizer concentration was varied from $0.17{\sim}3.33wt%$ compared to water, where particles with $7.96{\mu}m$ in average diameter were obtained at 1.57 wt% of stabilizer. Increase in divinylbenzene concentration, as a crosslinking agent, from $0.1{\sim}1.0 wt%$ compared to monomer exhibited a large increase in average particle diameter Incorporation of 1wt% of carbon black compared to monomer produced an increase in average diameter It is speculated that viscosity lower than that necessary to induce even dispersion of carbon black particles led to poor dispersion, and as a result, large particles. For a styrene mixture containing 3 wt% carton black compared to monomer, enhanced dispersion due to an increase in carbon black concentration reduced average particle diameters. For styrene mixtures containing 1 and 3 wt% carbon black compared to monomer, preparticles before polymerization and polymer composite particles after polymerization showed a similar tendency towards particle formation. When carbon black concentration compared to monomer was increased to 5 and 7 wt%, styrene mixtures exhibited a large increase in viscosity and thus better dispersion of carbon black particles, which led to a decrease in preparticle diameters. However, these particles experienced agglomeration in the polymerization process, and polystyrene composite particles increased in average diameter.

The hydrolysis reaction of sulfur mustard(HD, bis 2-chloroethylsulfide), one type of the blister agents was studied in water to find the operation conditions which can convert HD into less toxic compounds. The reaction was proceeded into two steps. First, 10~20 wt% of HD was hydrolyzed in water at $90^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr and aqueous sodium hydroxide solution(2.1 eq) was subsequently added to the reaction mixture at room temperature. The efficiency of HD hydrolysis at this experimental conditions was greater than 99.99% and the final degradation products of HD were 68 wt% of thiodiglycol, 8 wt% of 1,2-bis(2-hydroxyethylthio)ethane and 24 wt% of bis(2-hydroxyethylthioethyl)ether.

The geology of the Chulmasan area consists of Precambrain Sogeunri formation, granitic gneiss, foliated biotite granite, foliated mica granite, basic dyke and acidic dyke. REE mineralization in the area occurs at granitic gneiss and foliated mica granite. Minerals with minor amounts of REE and Th from granitic gneiss and foliated mica granite are zircon ($Y_2O_3$ 0.00~1.18 wt.%, $Gd_2O_3$ 0.00~0.59 wt.%, $Er_2O_3$ 0.00~0.22 wt.%, $Yb_2O_3$ 0.00~0.34 wt.%, $Lu_2O_3$ 0.00~0.48 wt.%, $ThO_2$ 0.00~0.33 wt.%), thorianite ($Nd_2O_3$ 0.00~0.24 wt.%, $Lu_2O_3$ 0.00~0.26 wt.%), berthierine ($La_2O_3$ 0.04~0.26 wt.%, $Nd_2O_3$ 0.00~0.20 wt.%, $Tb_2O_3$ 0.04~0.12 wt.%, $Dy_2O_3$ 0.17~0.26 wt.%, $Er_2O_3$ 0.33~0.44 wt.%, $Lu_2O_3$ 0.00~0.19 wt.%, $ThO_2$ 0.61~0.93 wt.%), chlorite ($La_2O_3$ 0.44~0.68 wt.%, $Ce_2O_3$ 0.12~0.13 wt.%, $Nd_2O_3$ 0.31~0.44 wt.%, $Eu_2O_3$ 0.03~0.08 wt.%, $Dy_2O_3$ 0.09~0.21 wt.%, $Ho_2O_3$ 0.04~0.14 wt.%, $Er_2O_3$ 0.18~0.32 wt.%, $Lu_2O_3$ 0.07~0.21 wt.%, $ThO_2$ 0.00~0.97 wt.%), biotite ($Nd_2O_3$ 0.02~0.08 wt.%, $Gd_2O_3$ 0.07~0.08 wt.%, $Tb_2O_3$ 0.02~0.07 wt.%, $Dy_2O_3$ 0.35~0.43 wt.%, $Ho_2O_3$ 0.15~0.26 wt.%, $Er_2O_3$ 0.24~0.28 wt.%, $Yb_2O_3$ 0.06~0.18 wt.%, $ThO_2$ 0.00~0.12 wt.%), orthoclase ($Dy_2O_3$ 0.05~0.12 wt.%, $Ho_2O_3$ 0.05~0.06 wt.%, $Er_2O_3$ 0.28 wt.%, $Yb_2O_3$ 0.06~0.12 wt.%) and plagioclase ($Ho_2O_3$ 0.01~0.03 wt.%, $Er_2O_3$ 0.10~0.27 wt.%, $ThO_2$ 0.11~0.13 wt.%). REE minerals (bastnaesite and fergusonite) were sealed fractures in mainly fledspar, mica, zircon, apatite and ilmenite. Therefore, bastnaesite and fergusonite from the Chulmasan area were formed from redissolution/reconcentration of REE-and Th-bearing minerals from granitic gneiss and foliated mica granite at late stage by several igneous activies and metamorphism.

The characteristics of enzymatic methanolysis of castor oil were investigated as a clean technology. Among 16 lipases tested in this study, Novozym 435 showed the highest activity in methanolysis. Solvents had different effects on the methanolysis of castor oil according to weight percent (wt%) of Novozym 435. Heptane showed best activity with 1 wt% of Novozym 435, while isopropyl ether gave the best yield of ricinoleic acid methyl ester with 0.5 wt% of that. Ricinoleic acid methyl ester was obtained in 86% of yield through the methanolysis of castor oil catalyzed by Novozym 435 (1.0 wt%) during 24hr.

The effects of intermediate annealing (IA) and the final cold rolling (CR) condition on the microstructure and sagging resistance during brazing were investigated using three layer clad sheets composed of the Al-7.5 wt.%Si alloy (filler, thickness: 10 ㎛)/Al-1.3 wt.%Mn based alloy (core, 80㎛)/Al-7.5 wt.%Si alloy (filler, 10㎛). Also, the effect of 1.2∼2 wt.% Zn addition into the core on the sagging resistance of the clad sheets was determined. It was revealed that all the clad sheets fabricated by the optimum condition (IA at 690 K and CR to 20∼45%) show excellent sagging resistance with a limited erosion due to the formation of a coarsely recrystallized grain structure in the core during brazing. It was also revealed that the recrystallization behavior of the Al-1.3 wt.%Mn based alloy is hardly affected by the addition of 1.2-2 wt.%Zn during the brazing cycle. Therefore, the sagging resistance of the clad sheets is found to be governed not by the Zn content added in the A1-1.3wt.%Mn based core, but by the intermediate annealing and final cold rolling condition.

In this study, the powders of Mg-3wt%Al-1wt%Zn-1wt%MM alloy were produced under vacuum condition by the inert gas atomization and the rapidly solidified powders were consolidated by the vacuum hot extrusion. Then the structural change of powders during extrusion was investigated. The effects of misch metal addition to AZ31 on mechanical properties of extruded bars were also examined. During extrusion of the rapidly solidified powders, their dendrite structure was broken into fragments and remained as grains of 2 ${\mu}m$ size in extruded bar. The Mg-Al-Ce intermetallic compounds formed in the interdendritic regions of powders were broken finely, too. The yield stress, tensile strength and ductility obtained in as-extruded Mg-3wt%Al-1wt%Zn-1wt%MM alloy were ${\sigma}_{0.2}=325$ MPa, ${\sigma}_{T.S.}=417$ MPa and ${\varepsilon}=16.8%$. All of these improvements on mechanical properties result from the refined micostructure and second-phase dispersions.

Pre-aging heat treatment after solution heat treatment (SHT) of Al-0.4 wt%Mg-1.2 wt%Si-0.1 wt%Mn alloy sheets for auto-bodies was carried out to investigate the effect of pre-aging and its conditions on the bake-hardening response. Mechanical properties were evaluated by a tensile and Vickers hardness test. Microstructural observation was also performed using a transmission electron microscope (TEM). It was revealed that pre-aging treatments play a great role in the bake-hardening response. In addition, it was found that the sphere-shaped nanosized clusters that can directly transit to the needle-shaped ${\beta}$" phase during the paint-bake process, not being dissolved into the matrix, are formed at 343 K. The result, reveals that the dominant factor of the bake-hardening response is the pre-aging temperature rather than the pre-aging time.

We studied to find out the effect of water temperature on the egg development of pearl oyster, Pincata fucata martensii and Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas. The optimum water temperatures for egg development were $20{\~}25^{\circ}C$ in P. fucata martensii and $15{\~}25^{\circ}C$ in C. gigas. The required time from fertilization to D-shaped lana was $41.7\;hours\;at\;20^{\circ}C$ and 27.5 hours at $25^{\circ}C$ in P. fucata martensii, and 35.3 hours at $15^{\circ}C$, 26.3 hours at $20^{\circ}C$ and 17.6 hours at$ 25^{\circ}C$ in C. gigas, respectively. The relationships between the water temperature ($WT:^{\circ}C$) and the required time (h: hour) from fertilization to each developmental stage were given as follows; P. fucata martensii Up to 8-cell $$1/h=0.0463WT-0.6945 (r^2=0.9702)$$ Up to morula $$1/h=0.0196WT-0.2184 (r^2=0.8118)$$ Up to trochophore $$1/h=0.0076WT-0.0802 (r^2=0.8756)$$ Up to D-shaped larva $$1/h=0.0031WT-0.0380 (r^2=0.9075)$$ C. gigas Up to 8-cell $$1/h=0.0210WT-0.1123 (r^2=0.9862)$$ Up to morula $$1/h=0.0143WT-0.1077 (r^2=0.9833)$$ Up to trochophore $$1/h=0.0052WT-0.0218 (r^2=0.9857)$$ Up to D-shaped lawn $$1/h=0.0029WT-0.0170 (r^2=0.9689)$$ Biological minimum temperature for egg development of P. fucata martensii and C. gigas was calculated as $$12.3^{\circ}C and 5.7{\circ}C$$, respectively.

We have studied the effects of Ag on the characteristics of Sn₄₈In₅₂Ag_x (wt%) low-melting solders for photovoltaic ribbons. The Sn₄₈In₅₂ (wt%) solder coexisted in the InSn₄ and In₃Sn alloys. Ag atoms added in the solder formed an AgIn₂ alloy by reacting with some part of In atoms, while they did not react with Sn atoms. The addition of Ag atoms in the Sn₄₈In₅₂Ag_x (wt%) solders showed useful results; an increase in peel strength and a decrease in melting temperature. The peel strength of the ribbon plated with the Sn₄₈In₅₂ (wt%) solder was 53.6 N/mm², and that of the Sn₄₈In₅₂Ag₁ (wt%) solder largely increased to 125.1 N/mm². In the meanwhile, the melting temperature of the Sn₄₈In₅₂ (wt%) solder was 119.2℃, and that of the Sn₄₈In₅₂Ag₁ (wt%) solder decreased to 114.0℃.

We examined the effects of stimulants including sunlight and UV-irradiation on the spawning induction and early development of the noble scallop, Chlamys nobilis. The sunlight stimulation resulted in nuch faster spawning induction (100% success within 40 minutes) compared to UV-irradiation (100% success within 70 minutes). Early development of the scallop larva took place between 15$^{\circ}C$ to 3$0^{\circ}C$. The time to reach the early D-shaped stage was 63.5, 31.5, 18.5 and 17.0 hours at 15, 20, 25 and 3$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. The correlations between the water temperature-(WT) regimes and the time (t) required for each developmental stage are as follows. 2 cell stage: 1/t=0.0606WT-0.6194 ($r^2$=0.9791) 8 cell stage: 1/t=0.0304WT-0.3453 ($r^2$=0.9941) Morula: 1/t=0.0100WT-0.1049 ($r^2$=0.9663) Trochophore: 1/t=0.0058WT-0.0618 ($r^2$=0.9848) D-shaped larva: 1/t=0.0030WT-0.0282 ($r^2$=0.9731) These correlations indicated that the biological minimum temperature of the species is around 10.44$^{\circ}C$. The highest survival rate up to D-shaped larva at different water temperature was observed at $25^{\circ}C$.
