Particle Image Velocimetry combined with developed image processing method is adopted to study the liquid-solid two phase flow in the centrifugal pump impeller with crystallization phenomenon. The tracer particle is used to follow the liquid phase, which has the diameter between 8 to $12{\mu}m$. The crystal particle precipitates from the sodium sulfate solution does change the wavelength of the laser, and which has great laser scattering characteristics. The diameter of the crystal particle is larger than $20{\mu}m$. Through calculating the diameter of the particles in the image, the tracer particle and the crystal particle can be distinguished. By analyzing the experimental result, the following conclusion has been obtained. During the delay period, there is not any crystal particle and the pump performance has not been changed. As the crystallization process begins, the crystal nuclei appears from the supersaturation solution and grows larger with temperature decreasing, which has the tendency of moving towards the pressure side. The characteristics of liquid-solid two phase flow with crystallization phenomenon in the pump are obtained according to analysis of experimental results, and some guiding advices are presented to mitigate the crystallization phenomenon in pump impeller.

Effects of ${AI_2O_3}/{P_2O_5}$ ratio on the crystallization of a series of glasses with the nominal composition of 41.4wt % $SiO_2$, 35.0wt % CaO, 20.6wt % (${P_2O_5}$+${AI_2O_3}$) and 3.0wt% MgO were investigated with DTA, XRD and SEM. The major crystalline phases are apatite and anorthite. The glass transition temperature ($T_g$) and the softening point ($T_s$) are shifted to the upper temperature by increasing $AI_2O_3$ content. The temperature of apatite crystallization ($T_{p1}$) is increased by $AI_2O_3$ content, but the tempera¬ture of anorthite crystallization ($T_{p2}$) is not affected significantly. With increased of $AI_2O_3$, the apatite crystallization is decreased, but anorthite crystallization is increased.

Separation of naphthalene from naphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene mixture has been studied by layered melt and solution crystallization using ethylalcohol. Purity and yield of naphthalene depended mainly on the cooling rate: The effective distribution coefficient ($K_{eff}$) as the degree of impurity removal was observed to decrease with the decreasing in cooling rate. Purity of naphthalene can be enhanced to $5{\sim}7%$ by melt crystallization using 90% naphthalene and the purity of naphthalene can be obtained to be 99% up by solution crystallization.

Polycarbonate (PC)/sulfonated polystyrene (SPS) ionomer/organoclay nanocomposites were prepared by a solution intercalation process using the SPS ionomer as a compatibilizer. The effect of an organoclay on the melt crystallization behavior of the ionomer compatibilized PC were examined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The melt crystallization behavior of PC was dependent on the extent of organoclay dispersion. The effect of the ionomer loading and cation size on intercalation/exfoliation efficiency of the organoclay in PC/SPS ionomer matrix was also studied using wide angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Dispersion of the organically modified clay in the polymer matrix improved with increasing ionomer compatibilizer loadings and cation size. The SPS ionomer compatibilized PC/organoclay nanocomposite showed enhanced melt crystallization compared to the SPS ionomer/PC blend. Well dispersed organoclay nanocomposites showed better crystallization than the poorly dispersed clay nanocomposites. These nanocomposites also showed better thermal stability than the SPS ionomer/PC blend.

Aluminum-induced crystallization (AIC) as a route to reduce the fabrication cost and to obtain polycrystalline Si (p-Si) thin-film of large grain size is a promising alternative of single-crystalline (s-Si) substrate or p-Si thin-film obtained by conventional methods such as solid phase crystallization (SPC) and laser-induced crystallization (LIC). As the AIC process occurs at the interface between a-Si and Al thin-films, there are various process and interface parameters. Also, it directly means that there is a certain parametric window to obtain p-Si of large grain size having uniform crystal orientation. In this article, we investigate the effect of the various process and interface parameters to obtain p-Si of large grain size and uniform crystal orientation from the literature review. We also suggest the potential use of the p-Si as a virtual substrate for the growth of various compound semiconductors in a form of low-dimension as well as thin-film as a way for their monolithic integration on Si.

에틸렌-테트라플르오르에틸렌(ETFE) 공중합체의 비등온 결정화 거동을 DSC와 imaging FTIR을 이용하여 살펴보았다. 변형 비등온 Avrami 분석 결과, DSC에 의한 열분석의 경우 상대적으로 적은 결정화 엔탈피 변화로 인하여 Avrami 식에 의한 ln[-ln(1-X(t))] vs. ln(t) 곡선이 선형을 이루지 못하는 반면, 결정화에 의한 IR 흡수 강도 image의 변화에 의한 분석 방법인 imaging FTIR의 경우보다 선형적인 결과를 얻음에 따라 imaging FTIR이 ETFE 비등온 결정화 연구에 보다 효과적임을 알 수 있었다. 이와 함께 비등온 결정화에 의한 ETFE의 광학특성을 살펴본 결과, 서냉에 의하여 형성된 ETFE 결정의 빛 산란에 의하여 haze가 증가하며 따라서 투명도가 감소함을 알 수 있으며 비등온 결정화에 의하여 최대 8%의 투과도 감소가 일어남을 확인할 수 있었다. 이상의 결과로부터 결정화를 조절하는 냉각속도가 유리 대체 소재로 사용되고 있는 ETFE 필름의 광투과도 조절에 주요한 가공 변수임을 확인할 수 있었다.

The crystallization behavior of homo polypropylene (PP) and PP in the PP-poly($\varepsilon$-caprolactone) (PCL) blends during isothermal crystallization has been investigated using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and advanced rheometric expansion system (ARES). From the storage modulus data of the homo PP and PP-PCL blends during isothermal crystallization, the volume fraction of crystallized material ($X_t$) of the homo PP and PP in the PP-PCL blends was calculated using the various rheological models. The results of $X_t$ of the homo PP and PP in the PP-PCL blends from ARES measurement were compared with the results from DSC. The $X_t$ of the homo PP was found to be higher in the ARES measurement than in the DSC. The crystallization rate of the homo PP was found to be faster in the rheological measurements than in the thermal analysis. The $X_t$ of PP in the PP-PCL blends with various compositions was obtained from the thermal analysis and rheological measurements. The $X_t$ of PP in the PP-PCL blends obtained from the thermal analysis and rheological measurements are not consistent. This discrepancy of $X_t$ may be due to the morphological changes resulted from the different crystallization kinetics of PP in the PP-PCL blends.

This study was performed to evaluate the feasibility of industrial by-products such as converter slag, olivine, red mud and fly ash as a seed crystal of struvite crystallization for the removal of highly concentrated $NH_4-N$ and $PO_4-P$. In the kinetic experiments, more than 90% of $NH_4-N$ and $PO_4-P$ was eliminated by struvite crystallization within 30 minutes of reaction time. The pH range in meta-stable region of struvite crystallization was found to be pH 7.0~9.0 under the Mg:N:P=1:1:1 equi-molar condition with 100 mg/L of $NH_4-N$. Total removal efficiencies of $NH_4-N$ and $PO_4-P$ by both struvite precipitation and crystallization were increased with the increase of pH. Removal efficiencies of $NH_4-N$ and $PO_4-P$ were significantly enhanced by struvite crystallization using industrial by-products as a seed crystal compared with those by struvite precipitation without seed crystal. Red mud, converter slag, olivine and fly ash enhanced the removal efficiencies of $NH_4-N$ by 40.9%, 37.7%, 28.4% and 16.4%, respectively. Removal efficiencies of $PO_4-P$ for converter slag, red mud, fly ash, olivine were increased by 3.7 times, 2.6 times, 72.4% and 68.0%, respectively. Converter slag and red mud showed higher feasibility as a seed crystal than others for the removal of highly concentrated $NH_4-N$ and $PO_4-P$. In particular, converter slag might have a high capacity of phosphorus removal.

a-Si을 poly-Si으로 결정화하는 전형적인 방법으로는 고상결정화(Solid Phase Crystallization, SPC)가 있다［1-3］. 고상결정화는 균일한 공정특성과 생산비가 저렴하다는 장점이 있으나, 고상결정화 공정에서 높은 공정온도와 긴 공정 시간은 유리 기판의 손상으로 인해 적용되기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 고상결정화의 저온공정과 짧은 공정시간을 위해 교번자장결정화(Alternating Magnetic Field Crystallization, AMFC) 시스템 내에서 결정화하는 동안 교번자장(Alternating Magnetic Field)을 적용하는 새로운 방법을 소개한다. 고상결정화의 경우, 열처리 시간은 570℃에서 24시간이 소요되었으나, 교번자장결정화의 경우, 같은 온도에서 20분이 소요되었다.

For high-performance TFT (Thin film transistor), poly-crystalline semiconductor thin film with low resistivity and high hall carrier mobility is necessary. But, conventional SPC (Solid phase crystallization) process has disadvantages in fabrication such as long annealing time in high temperature or using very expensive Excimer laser. On the contrary, MIC (Metal-induced crystallization) process enables semiconductor thin film crystallization at lower temperature in short annealing time. But, it has been known that the poly-crystalline semiconductor thin film fabricated by MIC methods, has low hall mobility due to the residual metals after crystallization process. In this study, Ni metal was shallow implanted using PIII&D (Plasma Immersion Ion Implantation & Deposition) technique instead of depositing Ni layer to reduce the Ni contamination after annealing. In addition, the effect of external magnetic field during annealing was studied to enhance the amorphous silicon thin film crystallization process. Various thin film analytical techniques such as XRD (X-Ray Diffraction), Raman spectroscopy, and XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy), Hall mobility measurement system were used to investigate the structure and composition of silicon thin film samples.
