The purpose of this study is to investigate the contamination rate of barium sulfate suspension made in the exposed state in usual circumstances. This study was performed in four university hospital using the contrast media by barium sulfate powder. The specimen were detected at dispensing water, agitator and mixing tank. We also classified the suspension into general bacteria, mycete, and Bacillus coli infection. The tap water were used to dispense water in the all hospitals. Bacillus colt were not detected in the all. General bacteria and mycete were not detected in the one specimen, but detected in two specimen over defined value. In the contamination rate of agitator, mixing tank, and the manufactured, Bacillus coli were not detected in all. However, general bacteria and mycete were detected too numberous to count. In conclusion, the refined water must be used in dispensing water in manufacturing suspension. The disinfectant is also used in washing the agitator and mixing tank for sterilization. Hand washing is indispensible to manufacturing suspension for preventing from infection.

High temperature materials used in the elevated temperature and corrosive atmosphere must have the good oxidation resistance and preserve their own mechanical properties simultaneously. For the oxidation resistance, it is very important to form a protective oxide scale such as $Al_2O_3$ or $Cr_2O_3$ on the substrate. However, the additions of protective oxide forming elements such as Cr and Al in the alloy to enhance its oxidation resistance are limited due to the deleterious effects on their mechanical properties. PECVD(P1asma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition) coating processes were employed to improve the oxidation resistance at high temperature. Cr and/or A1 were coated on the substrates of Ni and Inconel 600 at various temperatures of 400, 500, $600^{\circ}C$ and at different conditions of specimen surfaces. Then, coated specimens were exposed to isothermal and cyclic oxidation conditions in air at 1000 and $1100^{\circ}C$. In order to enhance the adhesion between the substrate and coated layer, heat treatments of the coated specimens were conducted in a vacuum. At isothermal oxidation experiments, Al-coated Ni specimen showed better oxidation resistance than pure Ni. At cyclic oxidation experiments at $1000^{\circ}C$. Cr and Al-coated specimen showed better oxidation resistance. Cr-coated Inconel 600 had also showed better oxidation resistance due to Cr in the substrate. By PECVD coating process, oxidation resistance could be improved, but it was not improved as expected due to the weakness of the adhesion between the substrate and the coated layer.

The present study concerns the corrosion mitigation of electrochemical chloride extraction (ECE) in concrete structure. Concrete specimen was fabricated with 5.0% chloride in cast, while the other specimen was exposed to 4.0M NaCl solution for 1 year to accelerate corrosion of steel. Then, the ECE was applied to the concrete specimen with 1000 mA/m² of the current density for 2, 4 and 8 weeks, respectively. During the ECE, the corrosion current density and corrosion potential were regularly monitored. As a result, the ECE was very effective in mitigating the degree of corrosion on the steel surface. The corrosion current density was significantly reduced from thousands to decades mA/m², while the corrosion potential was mostly shifted to positive direction. Assuming that the corrosion starts at 1.0 mA/m² of the corrosion current density or/and -275 mV vs SCE of the corrosion potential, the ECE could not fully achieve the repassivation of the steel, although its degree was lowered more or less depending on the duration of the treatment and type of chloride contamination. A visual examination confirmed that an increase in the duration of the treatment could lower the rust formation, but never fully removed all rust stains.

To investigate the surface state of $Mg_2Ni$ which was exposed to the air, a chemical treatment was undertaken with $H_2SO_4$ solution. During chemical treatment, the change of pH was measured continuously and the chemically treated specimen was hydrided to study the effect of chemical treatment on the hydrogenation. The pH changing behavior with the various $H_2SO_4$ concentration appeared very diffemrently. Especially in the solution including 3CC $H_2SO_4$, the behavior of pH change can be divided 3 steps. It is also shown that the $Mg_2Ni$ chemically treated with $H_2SO_4$ can be hydrided even under room temperature. By the SEM observation the was reasion that after chemical treatment the surface of a particle was covered with Ni layer.

There is high possibility of steel corrosion on the reinforced concrete exposed to marine environment by chloride ion penetration. And it show a big difference of concrete durability under conditions of splash zone, tidal zone, and immersion zone. Therefore, in this paper, half-cell potential and chloride ion penetration depth was measured to evaluate the durability of slag concrete by marine exposure experiment. As a result, SC70 specimen showed no steel corrosion, regardless of the marine exposed conditions. Also, a deterrent effect on chloride ion penetration by replacement of slag in tidal zone and immersion zone could be confirmed.

An experimental study to evaluate corrosion protection systems was undertaken with 47 reinforced concrete slab specimens subjected to cyclic wet and dry saltwater exposure. Corrosion measurements included monitoring marcrocell corrosion currents, which are generally accepted in United States practice. Test results indicate that specimens containing 2 kg/$\textrm{m}^3$ of NaCl an exposed to a 10 percent of NaCl show high values of corrosion currents. For the specimens with water repellent membrane currents kept relatively low numerical values, while test specimens with surface corrosion inhibitor hyprotective systems show high values of corrosion currents. No clear indication of the corrosion inhibitor protective systems might be due to the extremely high chloride exposure of the specimens, which has brought the accelerated corrosion. It would be expected that evaluation of the corrosion protective systems need long-term measurement with specimen exposed les chloride but simulating the real condition.

There is high probability of steel corrosion on the reinforced concrete exposed to marine environment by penetration of chloride ion. When making concrete structure with slag as admixture in marine environment, salt damage can be prevented. Therefore, this paper presents experimental results of steel corrosion resistance of slag concrete considering marine environment through half-cell potential method which is one of the nondestructive test. As a result of half-cell potential experiment, it was assumed that every specimen exposed to marine environment was not corroded, and as a result of destroying specimens, it was confirmed that there was no corrosion in specimens.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate electrical and structural degradation of flexible CIGS sollar cell exposed to high temperature and humid atmosphere. Method: Accelerated degradation was performed for various time under $85^{\circ}C/85%RH$ and then electrical and structural properties were analyzed by 4-point probe method, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Results: Sheet resistance of the top ITO layer increased with exposure time to the high temperature and humid atmosphere. Blunting of the protrusion morphology of ITO layer was observed for the degraded specimen, while no phase change was detected by XRD. Oxygen was detected at the edge area after 300 hours of exposure. Conclusion: Increase in electrical resistance of the degraded CIGS solar cell under high temperature and humid environment was attribute to the oxygen or water absorption.

This study is aimed to investigate the electrically conductive properties of epoxy nanocomposites exposed to an acidic environment under various mechanical loads. For simultaneous assessment of the acidic environment and mechanical load on the electrical conductivity of the samples, the samples with and without carbon nanotubes were exposed to the acidic environment under three different loading conditions for 20 days. Then, the aged samples' strength and flexural stiffness degradation under crude oil and bending stress were measured using a three-point flexural test. The aged samples in the acidic environment and under 80 percent of their intact ultimate strength revealed a 9% and 26% reduction of their electrical conductivity for samples with and without CNTs, respectively. The presence of nanoparticles declined flexural stiffness by about 16.39%. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of the specimen were used to evaluate the dispersion quality of CNTs. The results of this study can be exploited in constructing conductive composite electrodes to be used in petroleum environments such as crude oil electrostatic tanks.
