In general, inlet temperature of cooling sea water for steam turbine condenser is about $25^{\circ}C$ and outlet temperature is about $60^{\circ}C$. For oil cooler, outlet temperature is about $40^{\circ}C$. Therefore corrosion heavily depends on the temperature of the coolant of a heat exchanger system. It is necessary to set the temperature of the cooling water to have maximum heat transfer efficiency. This paper was studied on the effect of temperature on SCC of Al-brass which is used as a tube material of vessel heat exchanger in $3.5\%$ NaCl + $0.1\%\;NH_4OH$ solution under flow by constant displacement tester. Based on the test results, the behavior of polarization characteristic, stress corrosion crack popagation and dezincification characteristic of Al-brass was investigated.

0.75(Bi_1/2Na_1/2)TiO₃-0.25SrTiO₃ (BNT-25ST) ceramics with high densities were successfully prepared at a sintering temperature of 1,000℃ by adding a mixture of 1 mol% CuO and 0.5 mol% Na₂CO₃ or 0.5 mol% CuO and 0.25 mol% Na₂CO₃. Double polarization-electric field (P-E) hysteresis curves and sprout-shaped bipolar strain-electric field (S-E) hysteresis curves with small negative strains were observed in the pristine and CuO-added BNT-25ST ceramics whereas the Na₂CO₃-added sample showed similar P-E and S-E curves to a typical ferroelectric. The pristine BNT-25ST ceramics showed an extremely large strain and a large-signal piezoelectric strain constant (d₃₃^*): 0.287 % at 80 kV/cm and 850 pm/V at 20 kV/cm. Similar values, 0.248 % at 80 kV/cm and 655 pm/V at 20 kV/cm, were obtained in the CuO-added sample. However, the pristine and CuO-added samples showed large hysteresis in unipolar S-E curves at an electric field of less than 20 kV/cm. The Na₂CO₃-added sample showed smaller values of the strain and d₃₃^* but displayed a linear change and small hysteresis in the unipolar S-E curve. The co-added sample with CuO and Na₂CO₃ displayed intermediate P-E and S-E hysteresis curves.

Heterolayered K(Ta,Nb)O₃/Pb(Zr,Ti)O₃ thin films on Pt/Ti/SiO₂/Si substrates were prepared by a sol-gel process and spin-coating method. The structural and electrical properties were measured to investigate the possibility of application as an electrocaloric effect device. All specimens exhibited dense and uniform cross-sectional structures without pores, and the average thickness of the specimen coated six times was approximately 394 nm. Curie temperatures were observed at 5℃ or less in type-I and 10℃ in type-II specimens, respectively. Type-II specimens coated 6 times showed a relative dielectric constant of 758 and remanent polarization of 9.71 μC/㎠ at room temperature. The maximum electrocaloric effect occurred between 20 and 25℃, slightly higher than their Curie temperature, and the electrocaloric property (ΔT) of the type-II specimens coated 6 times was approximately 1.2℃ at room temperature.

In the atmosphere of $N_2$ gas, BaZ $r_{0.08}$ $Ti_{0.92}$ $O_3$ polycrystal was grown by floating zone technique using BaZ $r_{0.08}$ $Ti_{0.92}$ $O_3$ ceramics as a feed and SrTi $O_3$(1l0) single cystal as a seed. The dielectric constant and loss at 10 kHz, 100 kHz, and 1 MHz for the as-grown sample were measured as a function of temperature in the temperature range between -10$0^{\circ}C$ and 150 $^{\circ}C$ to find a dielectric peak with frequency dispersion at Curie point. The hysteresis loop showed that the grown sample had very small polarization which was 0-0.01 $\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$ for the applied dc-electric fields from -7 kV/cm to +7 kV/cm. However, the normal hysteresis loop was appeared after oxygen annealing. The electric-field dependence of the dielectric constant for both the as-grown and the post-annealed samples was studied by measuring the dielectric constants as a function of the biased-electric fields and their tunability was figured out from it at room temperature(27 $^{\circ}C$) and cryotemperature( -73$^{\circ}C$). Tunability for the as-grown sample was 51 % and the figure of merit 20.4 at 10kHz with the biased electric-field of 12 kV/cm. The tunability for the grown sample may be increased up to 80 % if the electric field of 25 kV/cm is applied. Tunability for the post-annealed sample was 41 % and the figure of merit 10.3 at 10 kHz with the biased electric-field of 12 kV /cm. Post-annealing improved the crystallinity of the as-grown sample but decreased its tunability.ability.

The measurments of neutral semiquinone radicals, which were formed from the laser flash photolysis of anthraquinone (AQ) in the mixed solvents were carried out by the time resolved electron spin resonance (trESR) spectroscopy. The chemically induced dynamic electron polarization (CIDEP) spectra of the neutral semiquinone radical (AQH${\cdot}$) and semiquinone radical anion (AQ${\cdot}$-) were successively detected in the laser flash photolysis of AQ in the mixtures of 2-propanol (PrOH) and triethylamine (TEA). The neutral semiquinone radical was short-lived with the half-life of 0.8 ${\mu}sec$, whereas the semiquinone radical anion was relatively stable and then its cwESR could be observed. The rate constant of the spin-depolarization of semiquinone radical anion was $2.6{\times}10^5 sec^{-1}$ and the decay of the radical anion was the first order reaction with the rate constant of $3.0{\times}10^2\; sec^{-1}$. No CIDEP of semiquinone radical anion was observed in the mixture of PrOH and the lower concentration of TEA than 2 percent. The CIDEP spectrum of the neutral semiquinone radical was detected in the mixture of benzene and TEA with the half-life of 3.0 ${\mu}sec$. The neutral semiquinone radical could not be detected by cwESR. Neither CIDEP nor ESR absorption could be observed in PrOH, TEA or benzene only.

Thin films of )$Pb(Zr, \;TiO_3$ are fabricated by MOCVD using ultrasonic spraying. The films having perovskite structure are made at low deposition temperature, $300-450^{\circ}C$. The phase and composition of the films vary with the composition of the starting solution and the deposition temperature. Dielectric constant of the films is 187 at 1MHz. Ferroelectric hysterysis loop measurements indicate a remanant polarization of $5.5{\mu}C/cm^2$, and coercive field of 65kV/cm. Resistivity of thin films is about $10^{11}{\Omega}cm$ and the breakdown electric field abort 35kV/cm.

In this study, SBN60(x=0.6) thin film was manufactured by ion beam sputtering technique. Using the prepared SBN60 target in $Ar/O_2$ atmosphere as-deposited SBN60 thin film on Pt(100)/$TiO_2/SiO_2/Si$ substrate crystallization and orientation behavior as well as electric properties of SBN60 thin film were examined. SBN60 deposition up to $3000{\AA}$ in thickness, SBN60 thin film was heat-treated at $650^{\circ}C{\sim}800^{\circ}C$. The orientation was shown primarily along (001) plane from XRD pattern where working pressure was $4.3{\times}10^{-4}$ torr. The deposited layer was uniform, preferred orientatin and crystallization behavior resulted in the change of $O_2$ ratio was observed. In electric propertie of Pt/SBN60/Pt thin film capacitor remnant polarization (2Pr) value was $10{\mu}C/cm^2$, the coercive filed (Ec) 50 kV/cm, and the dielectric constant 615, respectively.

The PZT thin films werre deposited on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrate by R. F. magnetron sputtering with $Pb_{1.1}Zr_{0.53}Ti_{0.47}O_3$ target. When interlayers(PbO, $TiO_2$, PbO/$TiO_2$) were inserted between PZT and Pt, the crystallization of the PZT thin films was considerably improved and the processing temperature was lowered. Compared to the pure PZT thin films, dielectric constant, dielectric loss and polarization properties of PZT thin films with interlayers were considerably improved. From XPS depth profile analysis, it was confirmed that PZT thin films and interlayers existed independently. In particular, PZT thin films deposited on interlayer(PbO/$TiO_2$) showed the best dielectric property (${\varepsilon}_r$=414.94, tan${\delta}$=0.0241, Pr=22${\mu}C/cm^2$).

The structural, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of $[Bi_{1-x}(Na_{0.7-x}K_{0.2}Li_{0.1})]_{0.5}BaxTiO_3$ (BNKLBxT) ceramics were studied for the compositional range, x = 0-0.08. The samples were prepared by conventional sintering technique. The result of X-ray diffraction (XRD) suggest that $Ba^{2+}$ diffuse into the $[Bi(Na_{0.7}K_{0.2}Li_{0.1})]_{0.5}TiO_3$ (BNKLT) lattices to form a solid solution with a single phase perovskite structure. The ceramic show excellent piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties, and optimum properties measured are as follows: piezoelectric constant $d_{33}=230pC/N$, planar electromechanical coupling factor $k_p\;=\;40.3%$, remanent polarization $P_r\;=\;30\;{\mu}C/cm^2$, and coercive field $E_c\; =\;2.5\;kV/mm$, respectively.
