The magnetic properties of $Ni_{1-x}Zn_{x}Fe_{2}O_{4}$ have been studied by X-ray diffractometry and $M\"{o}ssbauer$ Spectroscopy at room temperature. The X-ray diffraction study show that spinel structure is formed in all x, lattice constants linearly increased from $8.3111{$\AA$}~8.4184{$\AA$}({\pm}0.0003)$ with increasing x from 0 to 1, and oxygen parameter increase with increasing x. $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectrum shows that $Ni_{1-x}Zn_{x}Fe_{2}O_{4}(x=0)$ has two antiparallel magnetic structure due to $Fe^{3+}$ octahedral site and $Fe^{3+}$ tetrahedral site. $Ni_{1-x}Zn_{x}Fe_{2}O_{4}$ with $0.2{\leq}x{\leq}0.6$ has magnetic structure of Yafet and Kittel, in particularly, specimen with x=0.6 shows relaxation effect. Specimen with $x{\geq}0.8$ show paramagnetic quadrupole splitting. The isomer shift is independent of x, but quadrupole splittings decrease with increasing x in the range of $0.8{\leq}x{\leq}1$, and nuclear magnetic fields decrease with in¬creasing x in the range of $0{\leq}x{\leq}0.6$. The magnetic properties of $Ni_{1-x}Zn_{x}Fe_{2}O_{4}$ change from ferrimagnetics to pararnagnetics with increasing x.

We prepared five different ethylene-propylene copolymers (EPCs) for use as the encapsulant of a photovoltaic module. All of the polymers were of commercial grade from ExxonMobile company and had different ethylene/propylene compositions. The crystallization behaviors and crystal structures of the polymers were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry and wide angle X-ray scattering diffractometry, respectively. We observed the general trend that the degree of crystallization, density and glass transition temperature of the EPCs decreased with increasing ethylene content. However, an unexpected result was also observed: the EPC with the highest ethylene content (22.2 mol. %) showed the highest melting temperature. As a result, the EPC with 22.2 mol. % of ethylene shows the highest light transmittance, due to its having the lowest degree of crystallization and highest thermal creep resistance. This abnormal result is attributed to the blocky structure prepared by ExxonMobile's special catalyst technology. It was also observed that new additional melting peaks appeared as the crystallization time increased. Using wide angle X-ray scattering diffractometry, it was confirmed that these additional peaks originated from the formation of a new crystal structure caused by annealing.

Iron oxide compounds in 8 selected Cheju Island soil samples have been analized by X-ray fluorescence spectrometer(XRF), X-ray diffractometry(XRD), selected chemical techniques, and $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectroscopy. The result of this analysis by XRF shows that the rate of quantity of $Fe_2O_3$ in 8 soil samples was from 8.03wt.%(Daejeong paddy soil) to 18.21wt.%(Songag soils). Songag, Heugag and Gueom soils were detected to have lower peaks of intensity of hematite by XRD. In addition, these soils were not detected to have hematite and goethite peaks. Ferrihydrite, which is a short-range-order mineral commonly present in volcanic ash soil, was not detected by XRD due to low concentration and/or poor cristallinity. Ferrihydrite contents estimated from Feo values were 8.8~35.2g/kg for volcanic ash soils and 0.85g/kg for the Daejeong soil. Most of the soil samples represented by the paramagnetic $Fe^{3+}$ doublet obtained from $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectra at room temperature and 18K were considered to arise from the presence of ferrihydrite, superparamagnetic goethite, and silicate minerals. Also the paramagnetic $Fe^{2+}$ doublets are attributable to primary minerals such as olivine, illite, chlorite, augite, biotite, and hornblende. Goethite and hematite were identified as the dominant crystalline iron oxides in these soils from $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectra obtained at room temperature and 18K. All the soil samples exhibited strong superparamagnetic relaxation. Collapse of the $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ magnetic hyperfine splitting at room temperature was due to the small size(${\sim}180{\AA}$) of the oxide particles and/or Al-subsituted goethite.

Fluorine-doped $SmFeAsO_{1-x}F_x$ single crystals with the nominal value of x=0.2 were grown at $1350-1450^{\circ}C$ under the pressure of 3.3 GPa by using the self-flux method. Plate-shaped single crystals in the range of a few-150 ${\mu}m$ in their lateral size were obtained. The detailed crystal structure was analyzed by using the x-ray diffractometry. Superconducting transition temperature, determined by the resistive transition, of a single crystal was about 49 K with a narrow resistive transition width of ${\sim}1$ K. A relatively sharp transition, a low residual resistivity, and a large residual resistivity ratio compared with those reported for $REFeAsO_{1-x}F_x$(RE=Sm, Nd) single crystals indicate the high quality of our single crystals.

Inclusion complex formation of octyldimethl p-aminobenzoate with $\beta$-cyclodextrin in aqueous solution and in the solid state was studied by the solubility method, spectroscopic(UV, FT-lR) and X -ray diffractometry. The solid complex of octyldimethy p-aminobenzoate with $\beta$-cyclodextrin was obtained in molar ratio of 1 : 2(guest/host). A spatial relationship between host and guest molecule was clearly reflected in the magnitude of the apparent stability constant (K') and in the stoichiometry of the inclusion complex. Furthermore, a typical type Bs phase-solubility diagram was obtained for octyldimethyl p-aminobenzoate and p -cyclodextrin in water at $25^{\circ}C$. The results indicated that the solubility of the guest molecule was higher by the formation of $\beta$-cyclodextrin inclusion complex.

A new crystal form of valsartan dipotassium was isolated by recrystallization using the one-pot method. The new crystal form was identified as a monohydrate form ($C_{24}H_{27}N_5O_3K_2.H_2O$) and characterized by diffential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and X-ray powder diffractometry (PXRD). The new crystal data demonstrated to be clearly different from those known for the tetrahydrate form ($C_{24}H_{27}N_5O_3K_2.4H_2O$). It was observed that the monohydrate of vasartan dipotassium salt was completely dissolved in water within 1 hour and its dissolution rate was much faster than anhydrous free form of valsartan.

$Al_2O_3$/NiO powder was obtained through hydrolysis-condensation reactions and thermal treatments. An organic additive, triblock copolymer surfactant P123, was added to the starting materials to control the surface area and morphology. The synthesized powder was characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and a Brunner-Emmett-Teller surface analysis (BET). The heterogeneous catalytic activity of this powder was applied to an epoxidation reaction of styrene and was monitored using a gas chromatograph with mass spectrophotometry (GC/MS).

Two types of polyimide/silica composite films were prepared using sol-gel method through hydrolysis and polycondensation of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) with the polyamic acid (PAA) and end-capped PAA solution. Samples were characterized by the means of differential thermogravimetry, X-ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy, universal test, impedance analyzer, chemical resistance test, etc. All of the PAA/silanol solutions heat-treated at 300$^{\circ}C$ for 6h were transformed to polyimide/silica composites. It has been demonstrated that the properties of polyimide/silica composites were affected by the amount of silica addition and the bend type existed between polyimide and silica.

[ $Zn(BH_4)_2$ ] ($8.4\;wt\%$ theoretical hydrogen storage capacity) powders have been successfully synthesized by mechanochemical reaction from mixtures of $ZnCl_2$ and $NaBH_4$ powders in a 1:2 molar ratio in different times. $$ZnCl_2\;+\;2NaBH_4\rightarrow\;Zn(BH_4)_2\;+\;2NaCl\;(1)$$ $Zn(BH_4)_2$ powders were characterized by X-ray diffractometry(XRD), and Furier Transform Infrared spectrometry(FT-IR). The thermal stabilities of $Zn(BH_4)_2$ powders were studied by Differential scanning calorimetry(DSC), Thermogravimetry analysis(TGA), and Mass spectrometry(MS). $Zn(BH_4)_2$ can be tested for hydrogen evolution without further purification. The reaction to yield hydrogen is irreversible, the other products being compounds of Zn, and borane. $Zn(BH_4)_2$ thermally decomposes to release borane and hydrogen gas between about 85 and $150^{\circ}C$.
