Effect of phosphate (sodium polyphosphate 85%, sodium hexametaphosphate 7% and potassium phosphate 7%) on gelatinization of nonwaxy and waxy rice starches was investigated with X-ray diffractometry. The minimum moisture content for the gelatinization of nonwaxy starches was lowered in the presence of phosphate. The minimum temperature for the gelatinization of 5% starch suspensions was not altered by phosphate. However, the degree of gelatinigation of rice starches at the same temperature was higher in the presence of phosphate, except waxy rice starch.

Extracellular biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles with various shapes using the rice bacterial blight bacterium Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae BXO8 is reported. The synthesized silver nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM). Based on the evidence of HR-TEM, the synthesized particles were found to be spherical, with anisotropic structures such as triangles and rods, with an average size of 14.86 nm. The crystalline nature of silver nanoparticles was evident from the bright circular spots in the SAED pattern, clear lattice fringes in the high-resolution TEM images, and peaks in the XRD pattern. The FTIR spectrum showed that biomolecules containing amide and carboxylate groups are involved in the reduction and stabilization of the silver nanoparticles. Using such a biological method for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles is a simple, viable, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly process, which can be used in antimicrobial therapy.

Effects of hydrogenation in amorphous silicon rile growths on Solid Phase Crystallization (SPC) was investigated using x-ray diffractometry, energy dispersive Spectroscopy, and Raman spectrum. Interdiffusion of barium(Ba) and aluminum(Al) compounds of corning substrate was observed in both of rf sputtering and LFCVD films under the low temperature(580$^{\circ}C$) annealing. Low degree of crystallinity resulted from the interdiffusion was obtained. Highly applicable degree of crystallinity was obtained through the mechanical damage induced surface activation on amorphous silicon films. X-ray diffraction intensity of (111) orientation was used to characterize the degree of crystallinity of SPC. Nucleation and growth rate in SPC could be controllable through the employed surface treatment. IIydrogenated LPCVD films showed the superior crystallinity to non-hydrogenated sputtering films. Insignificant effects of activation treatment in sputtered film was of activation treatment in sputtered film was observed on SPC.

Microstructural analyses of synthetic arsenic-containing heavy metal sludges solidified with Portland cement were performed. Heavy metal sludges containing 0.04M of cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, and arsenic were prepared by sodium hydroxide precipitation and successive vacuum filtration. The sludges mixed with cement were cured for 14 days. The solidified sample was characterized by 1) leaching test, 2) scanning electron microscopy and 3) X-ray diffractometry. Of the metals tested, only Pb concentration in the leachate exceeded the Korean regulatory limit. The level of lead in the leachate was as high as 10 times the regulatory limit. X-ray analysis suggested that the metal hydroxides might be present in complex or impure crystalline phases.

Ferroelectric SrBi$_2$Ta$_2$$O_{9}$ thin films were fabricated by tole Sol-Gel method using a spin-on coating with MOD(Metal Organic Dccomposition) solution on Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si(100) substratcs. The films were anncalcd at 80$0^{\circ}C$ for one hour in oxygen atmosphere. The effects of Bi/Ti mole ratios on crystalline orientations, surface morphologies, and subface composition SBT thin films with a Bi/Ta mole ratios from 1.1 to 1.3 were investigated using X-ray Diffractometry (XRD). Atomic Force (AFM), X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy(XPS). Ferroelectric properties of these films were also measured.d.

[ $SnO_2$ ]-doped $TiO_2$ thin films were prepared from tin (IV) bis (acetylacetonate) dichloride and titanium diisopropoxide bis (acetylacetonate) with pluronic P123 or degussa P25 as a structural-directing agent. These hydrolyzed sol were spin coated onto Si(100) wafer substrate. The microstructure, morphology and bonding states of thin films were studied by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The photocatalytic activity of these films was investigated by using indigo carmine solution.

Fe compounds in scoria as distributed in the south-western area of Jeju Island were investigated using X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry, and $^{57}Fe$ $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectroscopy. The samples were prepared from four parasite volcanoes. It was found that these samples are typical basalt comprised of $SiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, Fe, and silicate minerals. The $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectra showed doublets for olivine, pyroxene, and ilmenite as well as sextets for hematite and magnetite. The valence state of Fe is chiefly a 3+ charge state with a slight 2+ charge state. It is expected that these results will add to the body of information related to the formation mechanisms of Jeju Island.

The $TiO_2$ films were prepared in the $H_2SO_4$ solution containing $NH_4F$ at different anodic voltages, to compare the photocatalytic performances of titania for purification of waste water. The microstructure was characterized by a Field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and X-ray diffractometry (XRD). Chemical bonding states and co-doped elements of F and N were analyzed using surface X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The photocatalytic activity of the co-doped $TiO_2$ films was analyzed by the degradation of aniline blue solution. From the result of diffuse reflectance absorption spectroscopy(DRS), it is indicated that the absorption edge of the F-N-codoped $TiO_2$ films shifted toward visible light area, and the photocatalytic reaction of $TiO_2$ was improved by doping an appropriate contents of F and N.

Rifampicin-arginine complex was prepared to increase the solubility and dissolution rate of rifampicin. Solvation method was applied to make the complex and its formation was identified by the solubility method, powder x-ray diffractometry, differential thermal analysis and spectroscopic determination. The complex was formed in the molar ratio of 1 : 1 which was proved by the slope ratio method and continuous variation method. The complex was a non-crystalline form determined by the x-ray powder diffractometric analysis. The solubility of complex in water was significantly higher than that of rifampicin itself. The stability constant and thermodynamical properties of the complex were determined to investigate the solubilization phenomena. The thermodynamic data showed that the complexation between rifampicin and arginine was an exothermic and spontaneous reaction. Simulated absorption studies carried out through the artificial lipid barrier in artificial gastric and intestinal juices. The results showed that the complex had an enhanced absorption rate of rifampicin nearly twice compared with that of rifampicin itself.
