Wet wire drawing of brass coated steel wire, used for tire reinforcement, is realized with Tungsten Carbide(WC) dies sintered with a cobalt(Co) binder. Dies wear represents an important limitation to the production process and cost savings. Several parameters, such as Co content, WC grain size of tungsten carbide, sintering conditions, and so on, affect on the wear of the drawing die. In this study, the effect of the diamond abrasive particle size on the life of the WC centered dies of the wet wire drawing was investigated. Wet wire drawing experiments were carried out on a wet wire drawing machine. From the experiments, the dies life, dies fracture, wire surface roughness, and wire breaks were investigated. From the results, it was found that the wear of the WC dies increased with the increase in the diamond abrasive particle size.

The microstructure of particle stabilized wet foams can be tailored by using parameters including the amphiphile concentration, contact angle, and surface tension. The influence of these parameters on the porosity is satisfactorily described in terms of a combined influence of the contact angle and surface tension of the initial suspensions that are directly affected by the amphiphile concentration. The resulting macroporous structures exhibited a total porosity of 82%. The foam cells were predominantly closed due to the air bubbles of the original wet foams being completely covered.

Nano-sized cobalt powder was fabricated by wet chemical reduction method at room temperature. The effects of various experimental variables on the overall properties of fabricated nano-sized cobalt powders have been investigated in detail, and amount of NaOH and reducing agent and dropping speed of reducing agent have been properly selected as experimental variables in the present research. Minitab program which could find optimized conditions was adopted as a statistic analysis. 3D Scatter-Plot and DOE (Design of Experiments) conditions for synthesis of nano-sized cobalt powder were well developed using Box-Behnken DOE method. Based on the results of the DOE process, reproducibility test were performed for nano-sized cobalt powder. Spherical nano-sized cobalt powders with an average size of 70-100 nm were successfully developed and crystalline peaks for the HCP and FCC structure were observed without second phase such as $Co(OH)_2$.

Many techniques have been proposed and investigated for microlens array manufacturing in three-dimensional (3D) structures. We present fabricating a microlens array using selective laser etching and a CO₂ laser. The femtosecond laser was employed to produce multiple micro-cracks that comprise the predesigned 3D structure. Subsequently, the wet etching process with a KOH solution was used to produce the primary microlens array structures. To polish the nonoptical surface to the optical surface, we performed reflow postprocessing using a CO₂ laser. We confirmed that the micro lens array can be manufactured in three primary shapes (cone, pyramid and hemisphere). Compared to our previous study, the processing time required for laser processing was reduced from approximately 1 hour to less than 30 seconds using the proposed processing method. Therefore, micro lens arrays can be manufactured using our processing method and can be applied to mass productionon large surface areas.

Multi-pass wet wire drawing process is used to produce fine wire in the industrial field. The production of fine wire through multi-pass wet wire drawing process with appropriate dies pass schedule would be impossible without understanding the relationship among many process parameters such as material properties, dies reduction, friction conditions, drawing speed etc However, in the industrial field, dies pass schedule of multi-pass wet wire drawing process has been executed by trial and error of experts. This study investigated the relationship among many process parameters quantitatively to obtain the important process information fur the appropriate pass schedule of multi-pass wet wire drawing process. Therefore, it is possible to predict the many important process parameters of multi-pass wet wire drawing process such as dies reduction, machine reduction, drawing force, backtension force, slip rate, slip velocity rate, power etc. The validity of the analyzed drawing force was verified by FE simulation and multi-pass wet wire drawing experiment. Also, pass redesign was performed based on the analyzed results, and the wire breakage between the original pass schedule and the redesigned pass schedule was compared through experiment.

Purpose: This study was to investigate the quality characteristics of wet noodle added with radish juice containing with pulp. Methods: Wet noodles were prepared with different amounts of radish juice (0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100%, w/w) instead of water. Results: As the amount of radish juice was increased, water absorption, volume increasing rate, and turbidity of soup were decreased. Lightness (L) values of uncooked wet noodles and cooked noodles were decreased with the addition of radish juice, while redness (a) and yellowness (b) values had no tendency of increasing or decreasing, regardless of the amount of radish juice. Moreover, lightness, redness, and yellowness values of uncooked noodles were higher than those of cooked noodles. The texture of cooked noodles showed significant differences in hardness and chewiness. It was increased as the amount of radish juice was increased. Their adhesiveness and springiness were lower than those of the control. Appearance, texture, and overall acceptability of sensory evaluation revealed that the noodle added with 80% of radish juice had the highest scores, although there were no differences among noodles added with different amounts of radish juice. Conclusion: In summary, the most desirable blending ratio of radish juice and water for the kneading of wet noodles was 80:20.

This study presents the results of an overall effort to detemine the applicability of the chemical wet process informing lead titanate electronic ceramics. Although pure lead titanate has not proven to be an important technological materials when prepared via conventional processing procedures this work is interesting as a study of chemical wet processing and a way of preparing pbTiO3 for study. The result obtained from this experiment were as follows ; Optimum synthesis condition which synthesize PbTiO3 by chemical wet process was obtained by firing at 50$0^{\circ}C$ after mixing $Pb(OH)_2$- gel and $Ti(OH)_4$ -gel at 7$0^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours.

Cobalt coated tungsten carbide-cobalt composite powder has been prepared through wet chemical reduction method. The cobalt sulfate solution was converted to the cobalt chloride then the cobalt hydroxide. The tungsten carbide powders were added in to the cobalt hydroxide, the cobalt hydroxide was reduced and coated over tungsten carbide powder using hypo-phosphorous acid. Both the cobalt and the tungsten carbide phase peaks were evident in the tungsten carbide-cobalt composite powder by X-ray diffraction. The average particle size measured via scanning electron microscope, particle size analysis was around 380 nm and the thickness of coated cobalt was determined to be 30~40 nm by transmission electron microscopy.
