Fe compounds of volcanic basalt samples distributed at the Hantan riverside in Cheorwon were investigated by means of X-ray diffractometry (XRD), X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) and $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectroscopy. We found that samples were typical basic rock which consisted of augite, anorthite, albite and sanidine etc. They had the total amount of iron compounds including hematite (${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$) varies from 6.20 w% to 12.8 w% depending on the different regions by XRF. The $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectra of the samples were consisted of three doublets. The balance state of Fe ions of all samples were chiefly $Fe^{2+}$, and $Fe^{2+}/Fe^{3+}$ ratios were 2.27~3.42.

M-type barium ferrite (BaFe12O19) powders were synthesized through the co-precipitation method. Starting material composition $Fe^{3+}:\;Ba^{2+}$ mole ratio was fixed as 8 and the relative amount of $Fe^{3+}$ and $Ba^{2+}$ was controlled. Structure and magnetic properties and powder morphology were investigated using XRD, SEM, VSM. Powder showing high coercivity and small magnetization was obtained at pH8 and $Fe_{3+}:\;Ba_{2+}$ of 12 : 1.5. Small magnetization value was originated from the existence of ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$. Single-phase Mtype barium ferrite were obtained regardless of the heat treatment condition and the amount of $Fe_{3+}\;and\;Ba_{2+}$ at pH$\approx$10. The largest value of magnetization (55.7 emu/g) under investigation were obtained when $Fe_{3+}:\;Ba_{2+}$ of 13.6 : 1.7 and furnace cooled powder in $O_2$. Particle size of powder was in the range of 50~200 nm.

The CO oxidation was performed on $H_2$-reduced NiO-${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ in the temperature range 150-$250^{\circ}C$. The kinetic study and the conductivity measurements indicate the oxidation reaction follows Langmuir-Rideal type process that is uncommon in heterogeneous catalyst$^1$. No active site is found on the catalyst surface for CO adsorption, but an oxygen vacancy adsorbs an oxygen, and this step is rate initiation. The partial orders are half for $O_2$ and first for CO, respectively. Apparent activation energy for over-all reaction is 9.05 kcal/mol.

An ${\alpha}$-Ferrite (Fe) powder dispersed with 4 vol.% of $Al_2O_3$ was successfully produced by a simple miling at 210 K with a mixture of $Fe_2O_3$, Fe and Al ingredient powders, followed by 2 step high temperature consolidation: Hot Pressing (HP) at 1323 K and then Hot Isostatic Pressing at 1423 K. The microstructure of the consolidated material was characterized by standard metallographic techniques such as XRD (X-ray Diffraction), TEM and STEM-EDS. The results of STEM-EDS analysis showed that the HIPed materials comprised a mixture of pure Fe matrix with a grain size of ~20 nm and $Al_2O_3$ with a bimodal size distribution of extremely fine (~5 nm) and medium size dispersoids (~20 nm). The mechanical properties of the consolidated materials were characterized by compressive test and micro Vickers hardness test at room temperature. The results showed that the yield strength of the ODS (Oxide Dispersion Strengthened) Fe alloy are as much as $674{\pm}39$ MPa and the improvement of the yield strength is attributed to the presence of the fine $Al_2O_3$ dispersoid.

$Cu_xFe_{3-x}O_4$ catalyst and $Zn_xFe_{3-x}O_4$ catalyst were synthesized by the air oxidation method with various C(II) and Zn(II) weights. Activated catalysts decomposed carbon dioxide to carbon at $350^{\circ}C$, $380^{\circ}C$, $410^{\circ}C$ and $440^{\circ}C$. The value of carbon dioxide decomposition rate for $Cu_{0.003}Fe_{2.997}O_4$ and $Zn_{0.003}Fe_{2.997}O_4$ catslysts than was better catalysts. The decomposed rate of the catalysts is about 85%${\sim}$90%. The reaction rate constant(4.00 $psi^{1-{\alpha}}/min$) and activation energy(2.62 kcal/mole) of $Cu_{0.003}Fe_{2.997}O_4$ catalyst are better than $Zn_{0.003}Fe_{2.997}O_4$

[ ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ ] precursor was synthesised by sol-gel method using aluminum sulfate, sodium sulfate and sodium carbonate as law materials. The flaky ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ crystals were prepared by heating using precursor about $1,050^{\circ}C$. In this study, the effect of some transition-metal sulfate ($FeSO_4,\;SnSO_4,\;ZnSO_4$) addition have been investigated. When iron sulfate was added, it could see that act on impurities in crystal growth process. In case of tin sulfate, distribution of Platelets was very broad. When flaky ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ crystals were prepared zinc sulfate addition, thickness, size, and distribution of platelets was suited to industrial application. The average diameter of flaky ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ crystals was about 20 $\mu$m, and its thickness was about 0.3 $\mu$m. Increasing addition of zinc sulfate, thickness of ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ platelet was decreased.

Mechanochemical synthesis of zinc ferrite, $ZnFe_2O_4$, was attempted from a powder mixture of iron (III) oxide, alpha-$Fe_2O_3$ and zinc (II) oxide, ZnO. Nanocrystalline zinc ferrite, $ZnFe_2O_4$ powders were successfully synthesized only bymilling for 30 hours. Evidence of the $ZnFe_2O_4$ formation was absent for the powders milled for 10 and 20 hours; the milling lowered the crystallinity of the starting materials. Heating after milling enhanced the formation of $ZnFe_2O_4$, crystal growth of $ZnFe_2O_4$ and the unreacted starting materials. The unreacted starting materials decreased their amounts by heating at higher temperatures.

Immobilized polyethylene glycols onto metal oxides such as ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$, ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$, $SiO_2$ and $TiO_2$ were used as phase transfer catalysts for the room temperature synthesis of aniline from nitrobenzene and ironpentacarbonyl. The amount of attached PEG molecules increased with specific surface area of metal oxides. Among the immobilized catalysts tested PEG/${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ showed the highest activity. The reaction rate increased with the chain length of PEG mole-cules and the aqueous NaOH concentration. Mechanistic study carried out using infrared spectrometer revealed that the role of PEG was to increase the formation of $HFe(CO)_4{^-}$ ion, which is known as active species, and its movement from aqueous to organic phase.

$Zn_{x}Fe_{3-x}O_{4}(0.00.<X<0.08)$ was synthesized by air oxidation method for the decomposition of carbon dioxide. We investigated the characteristics of catalyst, the form of methane by gas chromatograph after decomposition of carbon dioxide and kinetic parameter. $Zn_{x}Fe_{3-x}O_{4}(0.00.<X<0.08)$ was spinel type structure. The surface areas of catalysts($Zn_{x{Fe_{3-x}O_{4}(0.00.<X<0.08)$) were $15{\sim}27$ $m^{2}/g$. The shape of $Zn_{0.003}Fe_{2.997}O_{4}$ was sphere. The optimum temperature for the decomposition of carbon dioxide into carbon was $350^{\circ}C$. $Zn_{0.003}Fe_{2.997}O_{4}$ showed the 85% decomposition rate of carbon dioxide and the degree of reduction by hydrogen(${\delta}$) of $Zn_{0.003}Fe_{2.997}O_{4}$ was 0.32. At $350^{\circ}C$, the reaction rate constant and activation energy of $Zn_{0.003}Fe_{2.997}O_{3.68}$ for the decomposition of carbon dioxide into carbon were 3.10 $psi^{1-{\alpha}}/min$ and 0.98 kcal/mole respectively. After the carbon dioxide was decomposed, the carbon which was absorbed on the catalyst surface was reacted with hydrogen and it became methane.
