Non metallic composite materials, for example, GECM(graphite epoxy composite material) show high specific strength because of low density. These kinds of non metallic composite materials improved the structural effectiveness and operation economics. However, if these materials contacted several metals, corrosion can be arisen since non metallic composite materials have electrical conductivity. This paper dealt with galvanic corrosion between graphite epoxy composite material and several metals. Base on the electrochemical galvanic corrosion test between GECM and metals, corrosion current of carbon steel and aluminium increased with time but corrosion current of stainless steels and titanium decreased and galvanic potential increased. This behavior shows the galvanic corrosion depends upon the presence of passive film. Also, galvanic effect of GECM coupled with ferrous alloys and non-ferrous alloys was lower than that of 100% graphite, which is attributed to lower exposed area of graphite fiber in the GECM than apparent area of the GECM specimen used for the calculation of galvanic current in this work.

Metallic ferromagnet LA$_{1-x}$ Sr$_{x}$MnO$_3$ has received considerable attentions because of its metallic conductivity and giant magnetic resistivity. It is generally believed that layered perovskite SrO(LA$_{1-x}$ Sr$_{x}$MnO$_3$)$_{n}$ phase is insulating and shows no metallic transition. But recent report revealed that some single crystal SrO(LA$_{1-x}$ Sr$_{x}$MnO$_3$)$_{n}$ phase showed MR effect. In this study, layered perovskite SrO(LA$_{1-x}$ Sr$_{x}$MnO$_3$)$_2$ Phases were synthesized by solid state reaction at 140$0^{\circ}C$ in air atmosphere, for wide range of x and their phases were confirmed by X-ray diffraction. Electrical and magnetic properties were measured down to 10K and the possibility of MR effects was investigated.as investigated.

최근 열교환기의 향상을 위해 발포다공성매체의 적용이 증가하고 있다. 열교환기의 적용에 있어서 발포다공성매체의 이점을 살펴보기 위해 본 연구에서는 2가지 실험을 수행하였다. 첫 번째는 수력의 관점에서 투과계수 및 내부계수를 결정하는 것이고, 두 번째는 열교환의 관점에서 다공성매체의 유효전도율을 측정하는 것이다. 본 실험에서는 기공도는 거의 같으나 기공의 크기가 각각 20 ppi와 40 ppi인 구리 다공성매체를 사용하였다. 실험의 결과는 40 ppi 크기의 다공성매체가 수력과 열교환, 두가지 관점 모두에서 보다 높은 저항 효율을 나타낸다는 것을 보여준다.

Graphene was coated on austenitic and martensitic stainless steels to simulate the metallic bipolar plate of proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). Graphene oxide (GO) was synthesized and was reduced to reduced graphene oxide (rGO) via a hydrazine process. rGO was confirmed by FE-SEM, Raman spectroscopy and XPS. Interfacial contact resistance (ICR) between the bipolar plate and the gas diffusion layer (GDL) was measured to confirm the electrical conductivity. Both ICR and corrosion current density decreased on graphene coated stainless steels. Corrosion resistance was also improved with immersion time in cathodic environments and satisfied the criteria of the Department of Energy (DOE), USA. The total concentrations of metal ions dissolved from graphene coated stainless steels were reduced. Furthermore hydrophobicity was improved by increasing the contact angle.

In this paper, the effect of change of sleeve type on fireproofing performance of through-penetration firestop system on metallic pipes was analyzed. As a result, if the material of the sleeve is high in thermal conductivity and thick, a large amount of heat is transferred to the top of the support structure.

Dielectrophoresis has received considerable attention for separating nanotubes according to electronic types. Here we examine the effects of surface conductivity of semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT), induced by ionic surfactants, on the sign of dielectrophoretic force. The crossover frequency of semiconducting SWNT increases rapidly as the conductivity ratio between the particle and medium increases, leading to an incomplete separation of ionic surfactant suspended SWNT at an electric field frequency of 10 MHz. The surface charge of SWNT is neutralized by an equimolar mixture of anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and cationic surfactant cetyltrimenthylammonium bromide (CTAB), resulting in negative dielectrophoresis of semiconducting species at 10 MHz. A comparative Raman spectroscopy study shows a nearly complete separation of metallic SWNT.

Many studies have been conducted to increase heat transfer in fluid. One of the various heat transfer enhancement techniques is to suspend fine metallic or nonmetallic solid powder in traditional fluid. Nanofluid is defined at a new kind of heat transfer fluid containing a very small quantity of nanometer particles that are uniformly and stably suspended in a liquid. In this study CuNi or CuAg nano particles are used to investigate heat transfer enhancement. The result shows the thermal conductivity of nanofluid is much higher than that of traditional fluid.

Dissolution process of serpentine in distilled water was systematically investigated for study on pre-treatment of serpentine which was a candidate material for carbon dioxide sequestration. The metallic ions(Ca, Si, Mg etc.) were dissolved in distilled water at ambient condition and their concentrations were changed with dissolution time. The precise evaluation of dissolution process for serpentine dissolved solvent was performed by ion conductivity and pH measurement. Serpentine dissolution in distilled water was evaluated as a stable pre-treatment process without changes of crystallographic structure and chemical structure changes.

We have developed a terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) system for transmission and reflection measurements of metallic thin films. Using our THz-TDS system, we studied the conventional superconductor niobium (Nb) in the normal state in the spectral range from 5 to $50cm^{-1}$. Both the real and imaginary parts of the conductivity are acquired without Kramers-Kronig analysis. Nb exhibits a nearly frequency independent real conductivity spectrum in the terahertz range, with a very small imaginary part.

Conductive polymers(CPs) are a relatively new class of organic materials displaying as their foremost property a high conductivity combined with very light weight, flexibility and reasonably facile processability[1]. Due to their high conductivity/weight ratio, they have recently evinced much interest in potential application as EMI shielding screens, coatings or jackets for flexible conductors, rechargeable batteries and as possible substitutes for metallic conductors or semiconductors in wide variety of electrical devices[2].
