In this study, new abrasives that were composed of iron powder and carbon nanotube (CNT) particle were attempted to be abrasives for magnetic abrasive polishing. Because the CNT particles itself are very small ones with high hardness and magnetic strength, these properties are effective for magnetic abrasive polishing of nonmagnetic materials. As an experimental result for evaluating the machining characteristics in magnetic abrasive polishing, the CNT particles showed better performance than the conventional abrasives such as Fe and CBN powder.

Almost monodisperse iron oxide nanoparticles with an average particle size ranging from 5 to 43 nm were fabricated using an environmentally friendly starting material, ferrous acetate. The smallest particles were formed in the presence of a reductant, 1,2-dodecanediol, while the particle size increased with increasing concentration of dispersing agents. The dispersants consisted of various combinations of oleic acid, oleylamine, trioctylphosphine, and polyvinylpyrrolidone. The threshold temperature to form crystalline particles was found to be $240^{\circ}C$. The 43 nm nanoparticles exhibited a room temperature saturation magnetization and coercivity of 57 emu/g and 47 Oe, respectively.

In this research, fine-structure TiO2 bulks were fabricated in a combined application of magnetic pulsed compaction (MPC) and subsequent sintering and their densification behavior was investigated. The obtained density of $TiO_2$ bulk prepared via the combined processes increased as the MPC pressure increased from 0.3 to 0.7 GPa. Relatively higher density (88%) in the MPCed specimen at 0.7 GPa was attributed to the decrease of the inter-particle distance of the pre-compacted component. High pressure and rapid compaction using magnetic pulsed compaction reduced the shrinkage rate (about 10% in this case) of the sintered bulks compared to general processing (about 20%). The mixing conditions of PVA, water, and $TiO_2$ nano powder for the compaction of $TiO_2$ nano powder did not affect the density and shrinkage of the sintered bulks due to the high pressure of the MPC.

Iron nitride magnetic fluid was oxidized by exposing it to the air under normal atmospheric conditions. After exposure of 3.2 hours, the relative saturation magnetization of the iron nitride magnetic fluid is less than 0.4 compared to the value of the unexposed sample, and it is nearly zero after exposure for 1008 hours. The structure of the oxidized iron nitride is considered to be a non-magnetic hematites. The thickness of the oxidation layers of the iron-nitride particles are nearly the same, about 3 nm, regardless of the different particle sizes.

In this paper a structurally coupled and magnetically decoupled Ba-ferrite thin film medium is proposed to evade the superparamagnetic limit and reduce media noise. The proposed medium consists of ferrimagnetic Ba-ferrite nano-grains (< 10 nm) and a non-magnetic grain boundary material. Magnetic grains are crystallographically matched with the grain boundary material. Spherical or cubic shaped Ba-ferrite particle is also proposed for above 100 Kfci particulate recording application.

Nanoparticles of $Fe_2O_3$ with a mean particle size of 4-30 nm have been prepared by a pulsed wire evaporation method, and its structural and magnetic properties were studied by SQUID magnetometer and Mossbauer spectroscopy. From the main peak intensity of XRD and absorption rate of Mossbauer spectrum, the amounts of $\gamma-Fe_2O_3$ and $\alpha-Fe_2O_3$ in as-prepared sample are about 70% and 30%, respectively. The coercivity (53 Oe) and the saturation magnetization (14 emu/g) are about 20% of those of the bulk $\gamma-Fe_2O_3$. The low value of coercivity and saturation magnetization indicate that the $\gamma-Fe_2O_3$ phase nearly shows the spin glass-like behavior. Analysis of the set of Mossbauer spectrum indicates a distribution of magnetic hyperfine fields due to the particle size distribution yielding 20 nm of average particle size. The magnetic hyperfine parameters are consistent with values reported of bulk $\gamma-Fe_2O_3$ and $alpha-Fe_2O_3$. A quadrupole line on the center of spectrum represents of superparamagnetic phase of $\gamma-Fe_2O_3$ with a mean particle size of 7 nm or below.

The objective of this study was to see if fairly simple magnetic nano-particle treatment enhances boar semen qualities. Boar semen samples were prepared from the swine AI center and samples were divided by 4 different motility groups (1, >90%; 2. 80~90%; 3. 70~80%; 4. <70%) using computer assisted sperm analysis (CASA) evaluation. Boar semen was extended using BTS extender and same number of magnetic nano-particles as total number of spermatozoa in each sample was treated for 20 min and collected for 5 min at room temperature. Sperm qualities such as motility and viability were evaluated by the CASA before and after treatment. Sperm abnormality and degree of agglutination were also evaluated under the microscopic examination before and after treatment. There were significant changes (p<0.05) on sperm motility from all 4 different groups in the average of 7.11% after treatment. The enhancement of sperm motility changes was more clear in the groups of lower sperm motile groups (<70% and 70~80%; 19.12±1.08% and 5.67±0.71%, p<0.05). The sperm motility character in terms of curvilinear velocity (VCL), straight line velocity (VSL), average path velocity (VAP) and linearity (LIN, %) showed also similar pattern but motility enhancement wear more clear in below 70% motile group. Average sperm viability was increased to 4% by magnetic nano-particles (p<0.05). The percentage of sperm abnormality was also reduced significantly (p<0.05) to the range of 3.7~4.5% before after treatment. The degree of sperm agglutination was also reduced in lower motility groups by the magnetic nano-particle purification.

The patterning of microbead in microfluidics channel is a practical technique for application in bio and medical areas. An approach is described for a direct patterning of magnetically active microbeads in microfluidic devices without inner structure. Local magnet arrangements - flat arrangement and stack arrangement - contacting same poles or opposite poles of magnet were utilized for generating trapping magnetic fields. The arrangement of magnets contacting same poles generated isolated patterns by repelling of magnetic field. The flat arrangement of vertically reverse magnet arrays shaped trapping patterns repelling magnetic field line between same poles. Spatially, the stack compositions of magnet arrangements allow diverse isolated trapped patterns of magnetic particles. Trapped magnetic particles in fluidic channels were stable on the $18m{\ell}/hr$ flow conditions and magnetic force of 1.08 mT in the all experiments. This experimental study suggests the simple and versatile methods to pattern magnetic particles, and has potential of wide application to bio and medical area.
