In this study, the effects of oxide layer farmed on the wear tracks of TiN coated silicon wafer on friction and wear characteristics were investigated. Silicon wafer was used for the substrate of coated disk specimens, which were prepared by depositing TiN coating with 1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in coating thickness. AISI 52100 steel ball was used fur the counterpart. The tests were performed both in air for forming oxide layer on the wear track and in nitrogen to avoid oxidation. This paper reports characterization of the oxide layer effects on friction and wear characteristics using X-ray diffraction(XRD), Auger electron spectroscopy(AES), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and multi-mode atomic force microscope(AFM).

The Ni oxide/PVP nanofibers were synthesized by sol-gel and electrospinning technique. The obtained Ni oxide/PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone) nanofibers were calcined to remove the PVP compound at 873 and 1173 K. The Ni oxide/PVP nanofibers were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The SEM images showed that the mat form was prepared by calcination of Ni oxide/PVP nanofibers at 873 K. And the crystal structure of Ni oxide at 1173 K was also confirmed by SEM images. XRD results shows the crystallinity of metallic Ni and NiO. TEM images also verified the crystal phase of Ni and Ni oxide. XP spectra revealed that the oxidation state of Ni to conclude the chemical composition of Cu oxide nanofibers.

The synthesis of well-defined dendrons based on aliphatic polyether dendritic cores and glassy polystyrene peripheries is described. The synthetic route involves a combination of living anionic polymerization and a stepwise convergent method consisting of iterative Williamson etherification and hydroboration/oxidation reactions. On the basis of molecular weight, as characterized by gel permeation chromatography (GPC), the first generation dendron (Generation-1) shows a random coil conformation like a linear polystyrene, while higher generations (Generation-2 and 3) reveal globular forms in solution.

New inorganic red pigments based on Cr-doped $Y_2O_3$ and $Al_2O_3$ were synthesized by solid state method and characterization of their pigments were characterized by using XRD, FT-IR, SEM and UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The single perovskite phase revealed at $1450^{\circ}C{\sim}1550^{\circ}C$ for 6 h due to using mineralizers. The color of pigment powders resulted out various red-shades depending on the compositions of used materials and temperatures. Glazed tiles painted with pigment powders showed red color in oxidation and reduction firing. The best red colour was obtained when the $Cr_2O_3$ was used 0.04 mole at $1450^{\circ}C$ for 6 h.

A 23-kDa molecular mass of antioxidant protein was purified from human liver. This protein exhibited the preventive effect against the inactivation of glutamine synthetase by a metal-catalyzed oxidation system. This antioxidant activity was supported by a thiol-reducing equivalent such as dithiothreitol in a similar manner to that of the 25-kDa thiol-specific antioxidant protein (TSA) from human red blood cells (HR). However, a thioredoxin-linked peroxidase activity of thiol-specific antioxidant protein of human liver (HLTSA) (0.91 ${\mu}mol/min/nmol$ of HLTSA) was much lower than that of thiol-specific antioxidant protein of human red blood cells (HRTSA) (16.4 ${\mu}mol/min/nmol$ of HRTSA). This HLTSA is also immnologically distinct from HRTSA Amino acid sequences of the three tryptic peptides (P1, P2, P3) of HLTSA were found to be completely homologous to segments of the known Mer5-like protein, which belongs to the known TSA family.

탄소/탄소 복합체의 내산화 코팅을 위하여 산화티탄, 산화알루미늄, 산화이트륨 등을 포함하는 여러 가지 인산염계 유리를 제조하였다. 유리 산화물조성 몰비는 인산에 대하여 인산알루미늄을 15몰%, 30몰%, 45몰%로 하였고 산화티탄은 70몰%, 산화 이트륨은 25몰%이 되도록 코팅 액을 제조하였다. 제조 된 코팅액은 석영 도가니에서 열처리 하여 급냉 시켰으며, 급냉 시키고 다시 130$0^{\circ}C$, 1시간 동안 열처리하여 유리를 제조하였다. 제조된 유리의 열중량, 열팽창율, 열전도도를 분석하여 탄소 복합체와의 적합성을 조사하고, 내산화성 시험을 위해 탄소/탄소 복합체에 코팅액을 도포하여 산화 감량 비율을 측정하였다. 엑스선 회절분석기와 적외선 분광기를 통하여 인산염 유리의 구조분석을 실시하고 비커스 미세 경도 시험기를 이용하여 기계적 물성을 측정하였다.

In this study, the characteristics of gas atomized Mg-3wt%Al-1wt%Zn-1wt%MM alloy powders under vacuum condition were investigated. In spite of the low fluidity and easy oxidation of the molten magnesium, the spherical powders could be successfully produced by using a modified three pieces nozzle attached to the gas atomization unit. It was found that most of the solidified powders less than 50$\mu$m in diameter were single crystal and the solidified structure showed a typical dendritic morphology due to supercooling prior to nucleation. The secondary dendrite arm spacing decreased as the size of powders decreased. The Mg-Al-Ce intermetallic compounds with chemically stable phase were found in the interdendritic regions of $\alpha$-Mg. It is considered that formation of the chemically stable phase may possibly affect to improve the corrosion resistance. Therefore, it is expected that the materials formed of these Mg-Al-Zn-MM alloy powders shows better mechanical properties and corrosion resistance due to the structural refinement.

Fuel characteristics of sewage sludge as required for the fluidized bed incinerators have been evaluated. Sewage sludge is basically a solid fuel with high percentage of moisture. Moisture content of the fuel directly affects the heating value of the fuel and the exhaust gas composition. When the sludge of transported into the incinerator, sludge cake is subject to the mixing, break-up and heat-up. Fluidization process would enhance these physical processes. The sludge fuel could then undergo the moisture evaporation and devolatilization process. Subsequent oxidation of volatiles as well as the remaining char would then follow. Sludge samples are characterized with high percentage of volatiles out of total combustibles. Quantitative understanding of above listed subprocesses would certainly help in the utilization of fluidized bed incinerators. A limited set of fuel characterization tests including calorimetric analysis, proximate analysis, elemental analysis and thermogravimetric analysis were conducted for the selected sludge samples. The measurement reasults of sludge samples were reported along with some published data. Limited experience in the actual incinerator plant is also presented.
