Densities of molten salt mixtures of eutectic LiCl-KCl with $UCl_3$, $CeCl_3$, or $LaCl_3$ at various concentrations (up to 13 wt%) were measured using a liquid surface displacement probe. Linear relationships between the mixture density and the concentration of the added salt were observed. For $LaCl_3$ and $CeCl_3$, the measured densities were significantly higher than those previously reported from Archimedes' method. In the case of $LiCl-KCl-UCl_3$, the data fit the ideal mixture density model very well. For the other salts, the measured densities exceeded the ideal model prediction by about 2%.

Influence of solution treatment (T4) and peak-aging (T6) on damping capacity was investigated in permanent-mold cast Mg-3%Nd alloy. In as-cast state, the microstructure was characterized by eutectic $Mg_{12}Nd$ intermetallic phase network in the intergranular region. T4 treatment resulted in a dissolution of the eutectic particles, but small amount of the particles still remained in the microstructure. After T6 treatment, nano-sized ${\beta}^{\prime}(Mg_{12}Nd)$ particles were precipitated within the matrix. T4 microstructure showed higher damping capacity than as-cast and T6 ones. In view of the microstructural features, this may well be associated with the dissolution of second-phase particles which play a role in pinning the dislocations acting as a damping source.

Differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) was used as a screening technique for assessing the compatibility of some drugs with excipients. On the basis of DSC results, interaction of ibuprofen with PVP K40 was found and eutectic formations with PEG 6000 or magnesium stearate were demonstrated. Fenoprofen Ca was found to interact with PEG 6000. Naproxen showed interactions with PEG 6000, PVP K40, PVPP and Mg stearate. Interactions of tiaprofenic acid with PVP K40 or PVPP were found and eutectic formations with PEG 6000 or Mg stearate were observed. Bisoprolol hemifumarate, metoprolol tartrate and penbutolol sulfate were found to interact with lactose.

The effect of cooling rate on the solidification microstructure and segregation behavior of 7075 and 7050 aluminum alloy was investigated. Samples were solidified with cooling rates from 0.3 to $17^{\circ}K/sec$. Using the cooling curves of each sample, liquidus, eutectic and intermetallic reaction temperatures were estimated. The microstructures were characterized in terms of dendrite arm spacing and eutectic volume fraction. The segregation behavior of each alloying element of these alloys in various cooling rates was discussed.

The use of a sol-gel processed cordierite precursor sinterable about$900^{\circ}C$ allows cosintering of the copper and the ceramic. A strong bonding between the copper film and the cordierite substrate can be achieved through an eutectic bonding technique. These interfaces were investigated using STEM. copper diffusion as well as strong chemical and structural modifications was observed in the interface region. Although these interfaces have good adhesion properties, there was no evidence of the formation of the copper compound at the interface.

In this study the principles of melting phenomena of compacted vermicular graphite cast iron are discussed by considering the effects of the variation of phosphorus content and heating rate on the quenched microstructure of the specimens. In compacted vermicular graphite cast iron containing little phosphorus, the melting phenomena are found initially at the outer region of austenite shell and subsequently progressed with the diffusion of carbon through the austenite shell without regard to heating rate. But as the phosphorus content was increased over than 0.12wt.%, the melting phenomena initiated at the boundary of eutectic shell and progressed along the contact area between the melt and graphite tips at higher heating rate. At lower heating rate, the melt of steadite dissolved at the lower temperature than that of eutectic was moved toward the graphite through the austenite grain-boundary and promoted melting of graphite and matrix.

Unidirectional solidification of $Al-CuAl_2$ eutectic composites was studied under the condition of forced convection by vibration. It has been shown that thermal gradient for solid is different from that for liquid during solidification under force convection by vibration. With increase of vibration, mobility of liquid increases, but decreases with decreasing vibration. The rate of solidification is very high initially, and decreases suddenly. For further solidification, the rate of solidification decrceases slowly, and shows a L-type behavior. The mechanical vibration during solidification effects efficiently on nucleation, and induces a forced convection in liquid. By the forced convection, great thermal gradient of liquid interface between solid and liquid can be obtained. The amount of solute near the interface also decreases as solute distribution is improved by the forced convection.

The effects of thickness, silicon and manganese contents on the mechanical properties of 3.3 wt%C-0.1 wt%S thin-section gray cast iron plates were investigated. The eutectic cell counts and volume fraction of pearlite in the matrix decreased with increased thickness and therefore the strength and hardness decreased with it. Even though the eutectic cell count increased with increased silicon content, the volume fraction of pearlite decreased and the strength and hardness decreased with it. The pearlite was refined more with increased manganese content and therefore the strength and hardness increased with it.

Functionally graded microstructure of centrifugal cast Al-Si alloy, especially distribution of primary Si particles according to the changes of melt pouring temperature and rotation frequency was investigated by numerical simulation. Moving velocity of Si particles increased as the melt pouring temperature and rotational frequency of mold increased. Therefore, segregation tendency of primary Si particles toward inner side of cylindrical sample increased as the melt pouring temperature and rotational frequency of mold increased. Rich distribution region of particles was located at 0.9, 0.7, 0.4 mm from inner surface of cylindrical sample under the centrifugal cast condition of $750^{\circ}C$ melt pouring temperature and 1500, 2000 and 2500 rpm mold rotational frequencies, respectively, by numerical simulation.

To apply the high chromium white cast irons for sliding parts of construction equipments, the wear characteristics of these alloys which have three kinds of microstructure(hypoeutectic, near-eutectic, hypereutectic) were investigated by dry sand/rubber wheel tester. Also, the effect of heat treatment was investigated for the same alloys. As result of the test, heat treatment have no effect on the wear characteristics. And, hypereutectic composition alloy has the highest wear resistance against SiO$_2$. Also after test, cracking was observed in eutectic and primary carbides of all materials tested. This phenomenon was important factor in the wear resistance.
