Recently, the fuel oil of diesel engines of marine ships has been increasingly changed to heavy oil of low quality as the oil price is getting higher and higher. Therefore, the spiral gear attached at the motor of the oil purifier which plays an important role to purify the heavy oil is also easy to expose at severe environmental condition due to the purification of the heavy oil in higher temperature. Thus, the material of the spiral gear requires a better mechanical strength, wear and corrosion resistance. In this study, the heat treatment(tempering) with various holding time at temperature of $500^{\circ}C$ was carried out to the alloy of Cu-7Al-2.5Si as centrifugal casting, and the properties of both hardness and corrosion resistance with and without heat treatment were investigated with observation of the microstructure and with electrochemical methods, such as measurement of corrosion potential, cathodic and anodic polarization curves, cyclic voltammogram, and a.c. impedance. in natural seawater solution. The ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}^{\prime}$ and ${\gamma}_2$ phases were observed in the material in spite of no heat treatment due to quenching effect of a spin mold. However, their phases, that is, ${\beta}^{\prime}$ and ${\gamma}_2$ phases decreased gradually with increasing the holding time at a constant temperature of $500^{\circ}C$. The hardness more or less decreased with heat treatment, however its corrosion resistance was improved with the heat treatment. Furthermore, the longer holding time, the better corrosion resistance. In addition, when the holding time was 48hrs, its corrosion current density showed the lowest value. The pattern of corroded surface was nearly similar to that of the pitting corrosion, and this morphology was greatly observed in the case of no heat treatment. It is considered that ${\gamma}_2$ phase at the grain boundary was corroded preferentially as an anode. However, the pattern of general corrosion exhibited increasingly due to decreasing the ${\gamma}_2$ phase with heat treatment. Consequently, it is suggested that the corrosion resistance of Cu-7Al-2.5Si alloy can be improved with the heat treatment as a holding time for 48 hrs at $500^{\circ}C$.

Aoolphane was treated with 30% Hydrochloric acid at $18^{\circ}C$ for two hows with stirring in order to obtain the insoluble form of SiO2 gel and to extract quantitatively both $Al_2O_3$as and $Fe_2O_3AlCl_3{\cdot}6H_2O Fe$ and $Cl_3{\cdot}6H_2O$ forms, respectively, at the same time. $SiO_2$ gel was filtered and to the filterate Ammonia was added to precipitate $Al(OH)_3[Fe(OH)_3 Contaminated ]$ The precipitate was separated by filteration and the filterate was recovered as the form of $NH_4Cl$. The precipitate was treated with 200g (NaOH)/l Concentration of NaOH a little excessively to the equivalent at $65~70^{\circ}C$ as $Fe(OH)_3$ formed was insoluble, it was filtered of and to the filterate containing $NaAl(OH)_4(OH_2)_2$Carbon dioxide gas was bubbled at $50^{\circ}C~90^{\circ}C$ to obtain the precipitate with excellent filterability and crystallinity. The product was certified to be Dawsonite $(NaAl(OH)_2CO_3)$ by X-Ray diffraction analysis at below $40^{\circ}C$, when $CO_2$ gas was bubbled into the relatively lower concentration of $NaAl(OH)_4(OH_2)_2$ solution, the precipitate of very fine particles was formed, which was hard to filter and with the Composition of $\alpha-Al_2O_3-H_2O$ (Boehmite).

The mechanical and electrical properties of the hot-pressed and annealed $\beta$-SiC-ZrB$_2$ electroconductive ceramic composites were investigated as function of the liquid forming additives of $Al_2$O$_3$+Y$_2$O$_3$. Phase analysis of composites by XRD revelled $\alpha$ -SiC(6H), ZrB$_2$, and YAG(Al$_{5}$ Y$_3$O$_{12}$ ). Owing to crack deflection, crack bridging, phase transition and YAG of fracture toughness mechanism, the fracture toughness showed the highest value of 6.3MPa.m$^{1}$2/ for composites added with 24wt% $Al_2$O$_3$+Y$_2$O$_3$additives at room temperature. The resistance temperature coefficient respectively showed the value of 2.46$\times$10$^{-3}$ , 2.47$\times$10$^{-3}$ , 2.52$\times$ 10$^{-3}$ $^{\circ}C$ for composite added with 16, 20, 24wt% A1$_2$O$_3$+Y$_2$O$_3$additives. The electircal resistivity of the composites was all positive temperature coefficient resistance(PTCR) in the temperature range of $25^{\circ}C$ to 90$0^{\circ}C$.

A novel dioscin-glycosidase that specifically hydrolyzes multi-glycosides, such as 3-O-${\alpha}$-L-($1{\to}4$)-rhamnoside, 3-O-${\alpha}$-L-($1{\to}2$)-rhamnoside, 3-O-${\alpha}$-L-($1{\to}4$)-arabinoside, and ${\beta}$-D-glucoside, on diosgenin was isolated from the Absidia sp.d38 strain, purified, and characterized. The molecular mass of the new dioscin-glycosidase is about 55 kDa based on SDS-PAGE. The dioscin-glycosidase gradually hydrolyzes either 3-O-${\alpha}$-L-($1{\to}4$)-Rha or 3-O-${\alpha}$-L-($1{\to}2$)-Rha from dioscin into 3-O-${\alpha}$-L-Rha-${\beta}$-D-Glc-diosgenin, further rapidly hydrolyzes the other ${\alpha}$-L-Rha from 3-O-${\alpha}$-L-Rha-${\beta}$-D-Glc-diosgenin into the main intermediate products of 3-O-${\beta}$-D-Glc-diosgenin, and subsequently hydrolyzes these intermediate products into aglycone as the final product. The enzyme also gradually hydrolyzes 3-O-${\alpha}$-L-($1{\to}4$)-arabinoside, 3-O-${\alpha}$-L-($1{\to}2$)-rhamnoside, and ${\beta}$-D-glucoside from [3-O-${\alpha}$-L-($1{\to}4$)-Ara, 3-O-${\alpha}$-L-($1{\to}4$)-Rha]-${\beta}$-D-Glc-diosgenin into diosgenin as the final product, exhibiting significant differences from previously reported glycosidases. The optimal temperature and pH for the new dioscin-glycosidase is $40^{\circ}C$ and 5.0, respectively. Whereas the activity of the new dioscin-glycosidase was not affected by $Na^+$, $K^+$, and $Mg^{2+}$ ions, it was significantly inhibited by $Cu^{2+}$ and $Hg^{2+}$ ions, and slightly affected by $Ca^{2+}$ ions.

DC saddle-field-plasma-enhanced chemical-vapor deposition(PECVD) 장치를 이용 하여 상온에서 p-type Si(100)기판위에 hydrogenated amorphous carbon nitride [a-C:H(N)] 박막을 증착하였다. 원료가스인 $CH_4$과 $N_2$의 전체압력은 90mTorr로 고정하고 $N_2/CH_4$비를 0 에서 4까지 변화하면서 제작한 a-C:H(N)박막의 미세구조의 변화를 연구하였다. 진공조의 도달 진공도는 $1\times10^{-6}$Torr이고, 본 실험시 $N_2+CH_4$가스의 유량은 5sccm으로 고정하고 배 기량을 조절하여 진공조의 가스 압력을 90mTorr로 고정하였으며 기판에 200V의 직류 bias 전압을 인가하였다. $\alpha$-step과 X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)를 이용한 분석결과 $N_2/CH_4$비가 0에서 0.5로 증가함에 따라 박막 두께는 4840$\AA$에서 2600$\AA$으로 급격히 감소하 였으며, 박막내의 탄소에 대한 질소함유량(N/C비)는 N2/CH4비가 4일 때 최대 0.25로 증가하 는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 XPS 스펙트럼의 fitting 결과 $N_2/CH_4$비가 증가할수록 CN결합이 증가하였다. Fourier Transformation Infrared(FT-IR) 분석결과 $N_2/CH_4$비가 증가함에 따라 박막내의 C-H결합은 감소하고, N-H, C≡N결합은 증가하였다. Optical bandgap 측정 결과 $N_2/CH_4$비가 0에서 4로 증가함에 따라 a-C:H(N)박막의 bandgap 에너지는 2.53eV에서 2.3eV 로 감소하는 것을 확인하였다.

Turbocharger steels were manufactured by the powder metallurgical and casting method. They consisted primarily of a large amount of ${\gamma}$-Fe, a small amount of ${\alpha}$-Fe, and fine $Nb_6C_5$ precipitates. The casting method was better than the powder metallurgical method, because a sound matrix with little oxides were obtained. When turbocharger steels were oxidized at $900^{\circ}C$ for 50 h, $Mn_2VO_4$ and (Mn,Si)-oxides were formed along grain boundaries, while $Mn_2O_3$ and $CrMn_2O_4$ were formed intragranularly. Fe, Nb, and Ni were depleted in the oxide scale.

The glass in the system of CaO-$SiO_2-P_2O_5$ and the corresponding glass-ceramics are prepared for bone cements and the behaviors of the hardening and hydroxyapatite formation were studied for the glass and glass-ceramic powders. The glass crystallized into apatite, $\alpha$-wollastonite and $\beta$-wollastonite depending on the glass composition when they were heat-treated at $950^{\circ}C$ for 4 h. A DCPD (dicalcium phosphate dihydrate : $CaHPO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$) was developed when the prepared glass and glass-ceramic powders were mixed with 3M-$H_3PO_4$ solution. The DCPD (Ca/P=1.0) transformed to HAp (Ca/P=1.67) when the bone cement was soaked in simulated body fluid (SBF), and this HAp formation strongly depended on the releasing capacity of $Ca^{2+}$ ions from the glass and glass-ceramic cements. The glass-ceramic bone cement containing $\alpha$-wollastonite crystals showed faster transformation of DCPD to HAp than other glass-ceramics containing $\alpha$- and $\beta$-wollastonite crystals. No hydroxyapatite was observed when the glass-ceramic bone cement containing apatite crystals (36P6C) was soaked in SBF even for 1 month, because no $Ca^{2+}$ ion can be released from the stable apatite crystals.

In order to determine the optimum harvest time for the seed production of inbreds and hybrids in silage corn, the ears of sib-pollinated 'KS5', 'KS7rhm', and 'Ga209' and cross-pollinated 'KS5' $\times$ 'KS6' (Suwon19), 'KS7 rhm' $\times$ 'KSl17' (Suwonok), and 'Ga209' $\times$ 'DB544'(Kwanganok) were harvested at the one-week intervals from 4 to 10 weeks after silking. The optimum harvest time for the seed production for 'KS5', 'KS5' $\times$ 'KS6', 'KS7 rhm', and 'KS7rhm' $\times$ 'KS117' was 7 weeks after silking considering both emergence rate and plumule growth in cold test. Although earlier harvested seeds showed similar germination rate as the seeds harvested at the optimum time at $25^{\circ}C$, their emergence rate were lower in cold test. Seed weight and $\alpha$-amylase activity of earlier harvested seeds were lower compared to those of seeds harvested at the optimum time, while leakage of total sugars and electrolytes were higher. However, the later harvested seeds showed lower germination rates at $25^{\circ}C$ and emergence rates in cold test probably due to the lower $\alpha$-amylase activity although they showed increased seed weight and reduced leakage of total sugars and electrolytes. In contrast, the emergence rate of 'Ga209' and 'Ga209' $\times$ 'DB544' in cold test increased up to 10 weeks after silking probably due to the increased seed weight and $\alpha$-amylase activity and reduced sugar and electrolyte leakages during the germination. The cross-pollinated F$_1$ hybrid seeds showed higher germination and emergence rates at $25^{\circ}C$ and in cold test, and higher plumule growth and $\alpha$-amylase activity compared to those of sib-pollinated inbreds.
