The powder manufacturing process using the gas atomizer process is easy for mass production, has a fine powder particle size, and has excellent mechanical properties compared to the existing casting process, so it can be applied to various industries such as automobiles, electronic devices, aviation, and 3D printers. In this study, a modified A4032-xSn (x = 0, 1, 3, 5, and 10 wt.%) alloy with low melting point properties is investigated. After maintaining an argon (Ar) gas atmosphere, the main crucible is tilted; containing molten metal at 1,000℃ by melting the master alloy at a high frequency, and Ar gas is sprayed at 10 bar gas pressure after the molten metal inflow to the tundish crucible, which is maintained at 800℃. The manufactured powder is measured using a particle size analyzer, and FESEM is used to observe the shape and surface of the alloy powder. DSC is performed to investigate the change in shape, according to the melting point and temperature change. The microstructure of added tin (Sn) was observed by heat treatment at 575℃ for 10 min. As the content of Sn increased, the volume fraction increased to 1.1, 3.1, 6.4, and 10.9%.

The physical properties of polymeric foams depend on the density of foams, physical properties of base polymers, the content of open cells, and cell structures including the size and its distribution, the shape of cell, and the thickness of skin layer. The foam density is affected by the chemistry of raw materials, the concentration of crosslinking agent and the blowing agent as well as the operating parameters during production process. In this study, the basic formulations of foams are composed of polyester polyol, MDI, amine catalyst, tin catalyst, silicone surfactant, and water. Cross-linking density of polyurethane was increased by using chain extenders. Also, the mechanical properties of polyurethane foam were improved by using the inorganic fillers (silica 1,2 and talc 1,2) having different $SiO_2$ contents and particle sizes. We investigated the properties of modulus, tensile strength, compressive strength and hardness of foams obtained by changing kind of inorganic filler and chain extender, and observed the distribution of inorganic filler as well as variation of cell size within the foams by electron microscopy.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of pupal development and adult longevity of Spodoptera litura larvae reared on leaves of different leguminos plants of 11 varieties or cultivars. Pupal duration varied from 8.7 to 9.5 days depending upon different diets and duration of female pupa (8.3~9.1 days) was about 1 day shorter than that of male's (9.4~10.1 days). Prepupal an postpupal duration were 1.7 to 2.0 days and 6.7 to 7.7 days, respectively. Pupal weight ranged from 0.23g to 0.43g for female and 0.24g to 0.35 g for male. Percent change of pupal weight was lowest (11%) on geomjeongkong-1 and highest (16%) on bukwangkong. Adult longevity was in ranging from 7.8 days on dongbu to 11.2 days on bukwangkong and tended to become slightly longer in female than tin male. Significant relationships were recognized between moisture content of feeding leaf, the pupal duration and weight and adult longevity.

The $SnO_2$ thin films doped with Pd and CNT as $NO_2$ gas sensor were prepared by spin coating and then the $NO_2$ gas response of these films were evaluated under $1ppm{\sim}5ppm\;NO_2$ concentration and operating temperature of $200^{\circ}C$. It was found that the sensor resistance was increased with $NO_2$ exposure and $NO_2$ concentration. The 3wt% Pd doped sample showed a sensitivity of 26.5 which was 10 times higher than that of pure $SnO_2$. And also the sensitivity of CNT doped sample increased with CNT content and it had 72 when 0.225 wt% of CNT was added under 5ppm $NO_2$ concentration.

In this work, Fe-Pd alloy films have been electrodeposited on different substrates using an electrolyte containing $[Pd(NH_3)_4]^{2+}$ (0.02 M) and $[Fe-Citrate]^{2+}$ (0.2 M). The influences of substrate and overpotential on chemical composition, nucleation and growth kinetics as well as the electrodeposited films morphology have been investigated using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), current-time transients, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns. In all substrates - brass, copper and sputtered fluorine doped tin oxide on glass (FTO/glass) - Fe content of the electrodeposited alloys increases by increasing the overpotential. Also the cathodic current efficiency is low due to high rate of $H_2$ co-reduction. Regarding the chronoamperometry current-time transients, it has been demonstrated that the nucleation mechanism is instantaneous with a typical three dimensional (3D) diffusion-controlled growth in the case of brass and copper substrates; while for FTO, the growth mode changes to 3D progressive. At a constant overpotential, the calculated number of active nucleation sites for metallic substrates is much higher than that of FTO/glass; however by increasing the overpotential, the number of active nucleation sites increases. The SEM micrographs as well as the XRD patterns reveal the formation of Fe-Pd alloy thin films with nanostructure arrangement and ultra-fine grains.

Undoped $SnO_x$ thin films were deposited on Si(100) substrate by using reactive ioassisted deposition technique (R-IAD). In order to investigate the effect of initial oxygen content and heat treatment on the oxidation state and crystalline structure of tin oxide films, $SnO_x$ thin films were post-annealed at 400~$600^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr. in a vacuum ~$5 \times 10^{-3}$ -3/ Torr or were directly deposited on the substrate of $400^{\circ}C$ and the relative arrival ration ($Gamma$) of oxygen ion to Sn metal varied from 0.025 to 0.1, i.e., average impinging energy ($E_a$) form 25 to 100 eV/atom. As $E_a$ increased, the composition ratio of $N_ON{sn}$ changed from 1.25 to 1.93 in post-annealing, treatment and 1.21 to 1.87 in in-situ substrate heating. In case of post-annealing, the oxidation from SnO to $SnO_2$ was closely related to initial oxygen contents and post-annealing temperature, and the perfect oxidation of $SnO_2$ in the film was obtained at higher than $E_a$=75 eV/atom and $600^{\circ}C$. The temperature for perfect oxidation of $SnO_2$ was reduced as low as $400^{\circ}C$ through in-situ substrate heating. The variation of the chemical state of $SnO_x$ thin films with changing $E_a$'s and heating method were also observed by Auger electron spectroscopy.

Adhesion of W to TiN which is used as a glue layer in the blanket tungsten process has been investigated using the pulling and scratch methods and analysed using surface roughness measurements by SEM and the reflectivity measurement, the stress measurement and the SIMS depth profiling Significant differences between the adhesion of the CVD tungsten film to the s-TiN and that to the a-TiN were found. It appeared that the fomer were better than the latter, which is due to the facts that the s-TiN film has a rougher surface and a lower stress level and a higher oxygen content than the a-TiN film. Also the ashesion strength was degreaded with increasing the TIN film thickness because of the increase of the TiN film stress.

The electrical conductivity of carbon-fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP's) has been improved by indium-tin oxide (ITO) nano-particle coating on carbon fibers for the purpose of lightning strike protection of composite fuselage skins. ITO nano-particles were coated on the surface of carbon fibers by spraying the colloidal suspension with 10~40% ITO content. The electrical conductivity of the CFRP has been increased more than three times after ITO coating, comparable to or higher than that of B-787 composite fuselage skins with metal wire-meshes on the outer surface, without sacrificing the tensile property due to the existence of nano-particles at fiber-matrix interface. The damage area by the simulated lightning strike was also verified for different materials and conditions by using ultrasonic C-scan image. As the electrical conductivity of 40% nano-ITO coated sample surpass that of the B-787 sample, the damage area by lightning strike also appeared comparable to that of the materials currently employed for composite fuselage construction.

The characteristics of a co-sputtered indium zinc tin oxide (IZTO) films prepared by dual target dc magnetron sputtering from IZO and ITO targets at a room temperature are investigated. Film properties, such as sheet resistance, optical transmittance, surface work function and surface roughness were examined as a function of ITO dc power at constant IZO dc power of 100 W. It was shown that the increase of the ITO dc power during co-sputtering of ITO and IZO target resulted in an increase of sheet resistance of the IZTO films. This can be attributed to high resistivity of ITO film prepared at room temperature. Surface smoothness and roughness were investigated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). The synchrotron x-ray scattering results obtained from IZTO film with different ITO contents showed that introduction of ITO atoms into amorphous IZO film resulted in a crystallization of IZTO film with (222) preferred orientation due to low alc transition temperature of ITO film. However, the transmittance of the IZTO films with thickness of 150 nm is between 80 and 85 % at wavelength of 550 nm regardless of ITO content. Possible mechanism to explain the ITO and IZO co-sputtering effect on properties of IZTO is suggested.
