Abstract The growth and dissolution behaviour of reaction phase was studied during dissolution reaction between sintered alumina and $CaMgSiO_4$ at $1600^{\circ}C$ for various times. The formation of $CaO{\cdot}6Al_2O_3$ an intermediate reaction phase, and $CaMgSiO_4$ spinel, the final reaction product were observed during dissolution reaction of alumina into $CaMgSiO_4$ liquid phase. The growth and dissolution shape of $CaO{\cdot}6Al_2O_3$, an intermediate phase, was quite different.

Hydrothermal synthesis of 1.13nm tobermorite was performed to obtain the mixing ratio of raw materials, the optimum reaction time and the effect of aluminum in two systems, $CaO-SiO_2-H_2O$ and cement sludge-$SiO_2-H_2O$. 1.13nm tobermorite($5CaO{\cdot}6SiO_2{\cdot}5H_2O:C_5S_6H_5$) was synthesized excellently from $CaO-SiO_2-H_2O$ system on each mole ratio (0.4, 0.8) of $CaO/SiO_2$ at $180^{\circ}C$. But a tobermorite crystals had a sign of crystal conversion after 6 hours of reaction times in the case of $CaO/SiO_2=0.4$ and 4 hours of reaction time in the case of $CaO/SiO_2=0.8$. However, a tobermorite synthesized from cement sludge wastes did not show the crystal conversion on each mole ratio(0.4, 0.8) of $CaO/SiO_2$ within 10 hours of reaction times. It is considered that aluminum ions dissolved from cement sludge wastes retarded the recrystallization of tobermorite. This role of aluminum ion was confirmed in $CaO-SiO_2-H_2O+Al$ powder system. According as added amount of Al powder was increased from 0.8% to 3.0%, the crystal had a highly flatter and larger shape. Recrvstallization was not detected within the same reaction times when aluminum was added.

제강공정에서 발생되는 $CaO-Al_{2}O_{3}-SiO_{2}$계 조성을 갖는 2 차 정련슬래그 (래들 슬래그)를 이용하여 하수슬러지용 고화재개발 및 하수슬러지 고화체의 물성에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 래들슬래그는 냉각과정에서 분화되는 성질이 있어 냉각후 분말상의 슬래그가 만들어진다. 분말상 슬래그의 주 결정상은 $12CaO{\cdot}7Al_{2}O_{3}$ 및 $2CaO{\cdot}SiO_{2}$로 구성되어 있다. $12CaO{\cdot}7Al_{2}O_{3}$ 상은 속경성 시멘트의 특징이 있다. 또한 $CaSO_{4}$와 혼합사용시 ettringite 상을 형성시켜 하수슬러지의 함수율 저감효과 및 강도발현 효과가 우수한 결과를 얻었다. $Cl^{-}$ 이온의 고정화면에서는 고화재중 래들슬래그의 혼합비가 높을수록 고화체 구조내에 $Cl^{-}$ 이온이 고정화되어 용출량은 감소하였다. 고화재로서 제강부산물을 사용하기 때문에 경제성이 있으며, $Cl^{-}$ 이온 함량이 높은 하수슬러지 고화재로서의 재활용이 기대된다.

It is known that bones get damaged by accidents and aging. Since the discovery of Bioglass, various kinds of ceramics have been also found to bond to living bone; some of these ceramics are already being clinically used as bone-repairing materials. In the present study, antibacterial calcium silicate gel ($Ag-30CaO{\cdot}70SiO_2$ gel) was prepared by sol-gel method in order to control the microstructure, which is related to the dissolution rate and induction period of apatite formation in body environment. In addition, biological $Ag-30CaO{\cdot}70SiO_2$ is tested. This was done to impart antimicrobial activity to the $30CaO{\cdot}70SiO_2$. Ag ion was added during sol-gel synthesis to replace the $H_2O$ added during the making of the $30CaO{\cdot}70SiO_2$ gel, which has silver solutions of various concentration. After the sol-gel process, 1N-$HNO_3$ solution was used to wash the gel when synthesizing the gel, in order to maintain the porous structure and remove PEG, water soluble polymers. Then, the apatite forming ability of the sol-gel derived CaO-$SiO_2$ gels was investigated using simulated body fluid (SBF), which had almost the same ion concentration as that of human blood plasma. The gels were analyzed by FT-IR spectroscopy, SEM observation, XRD, and fluorescent microscopy. The apatite was successfully created even after washing the gel; apatite is present in an amorphous state, and was found to affect the concentration of the Ag ion in cells in MC3T3 live & dead assay results. From these results, it is suggested that a good material that can be used to repair defects of nature bone is $Ag-30CaO{\cdot}70SiO_2$ gel.

The effect of different source silicon ($CaSiO_3$, $K_2SiO_3$, and $NaSiO_3$) and their application methods (foliar application and subirrigation) on the growth of potted kalanchoe was investigated. Rooted terminal cuttings of Kalanchoe blossfeldiana 'Peperu' were transplanted into 10.5 cm plastic pots containing a commercial growing medium. Then, a nutrient solution, containing 0 or $50mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ Si as $K_2SiO_3$, $Na_2SiO_3$, or $CaSiO_3$ and adjusted to EC 1.4-$1.6mS{\cdot}cm^{-1}$ and pH 6.0, was supplied through subirrigation along with the nutrient solution or by a foliar application. Plants were grown in a glasshouse under a mean temperature of $23^{\circ}C$ and RH of 70-80%. After 12 weeks of cultivation, plant growth characteristics and leaf tissue contents of P, K, Ca, Mg, Na, S, and Si were measured. Both subirrigational supply and foliar application of Si decreased the plant height and flower stem length. However, the plant condition in the foliar application resulted in disease-like soft rot on the leaf. Among three silicon sources tested, $CaSiO_3$ supplied through a subirrigation system increased shoot tissue contents of Si and chlorophyll as compared to the $Na_2SiO_3$ or $K_2SiO_3$ treatment. Shoot tissue contents of Ca, K, and Na increased when the plant was supplied with $CaSiO_3$, $K_2SiO_3$, and $Na_2SiO_3$, respectively. Subirrigational supply of $K_2SiO_3$ and $NaSiO_3$ decreased the shoot tissue contents of Ca and Mg, and K and Ca, respectively. Therefore, $CaSiO_3$ supplied through a subirrigation system could improve plant quality of kalanchoe 'Peperu' making compact potted plants.

AlSiCa powders were prepared from the domestic Hadong Kaolin ($Al_2O_3{\cdot}2SiO_2{\cdot}2H_2O$). As a result of the reaction of Hadong Kaolin and carbon powder at reducing atmosphere, $Al_2O_3{\cdot}SiC$ composite started to form at $1300^{\circ}C$ and completed at $1400^{\circ}C$. The optimum amount of carbon was 1:4 in mole ratio. It was found that only bright-green $\beta-SiC$ phase forms when the mixture was packed without carbon powder in alumina crucible.

Elelctrical properties of $BaTiO_3$ were characterized with addition of $Y_2O_3, CaO,SiO_2$ and Mn to develope the composition of PTC thermistor suitable as a current limiting device for automobile motor system. With the addition of 0.2 mol% $Y_{2}O_3$ to $BaTiO_3$, the minimum resistance of 16.5 ${\Omega}{\cdot}$cm was obtained at room temperature. $(Ba_{0.996}Y_{0.004})TiO_3$ exibited a minimum resistance of 50${\Omega}{\cdot}$cm with addition of 1.6 mol% $SiO_2$. The grain size of $(Ba_{0.996}Y_{0.004})TiO_3$ decreased from 34.95 ${\mu}$m to 13.4 ${\mu}$m and thus breakdown voltage could be improved by changing the composition as $(Ba_{0.996}Y_{0.004}Ca_{0.05}) TiO_3$ with substition of 5 mol% Ca into Basites. When 0.04 mol% Mn was added, the optimum PTCR properties could be obtained : the resistivity at room temperature and ${\rho}_{max}/{\rho}_{min}$ were 30~40${\Omega}{\cdot}$cm and $1.5{\times}10^5$ respectively.

To study the effects of chemical composition on the fusion temperatures of coal ashes, the chemical composition, mineral matter, and fusion temperature were studied with 54 kinds of coal ash samples including Korean anthracite coals. CaO, MgO and $Fe_2O_3$ were observed to be major fluxing elements in reducing and oxidizing atmosphere. The fluxing effect of $Fe_2O_3$ was increased more in reducing atmosphere. In a base/acid ratio, the fusion temperature decreased with increasing amounts of basic components. Nevertheless, the correlation between a fusion temperature and base/acid ratio was not shown well in a higher ratio of $Fe_2O_3/CaO$. The differences of fusion temperatures between oxidizing and reducing atmosphere showed close relationship with $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$ ratio rather than with $Fe_2O_3$ contents. Multiple regression was used to predict the fusion temperature of coal ashes, and it was established that the major predictors in oxidizing atmosphere were Base/Acid, $Fe_2O_3/CaO$, $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$, and $(SiO_2/A1_2O_3){\cdot}(Base/Acid)$ and Base/Acid, $Fe_2O_3/CaO$, $SiO_2$, and $TiO_2$ were major ones in reducing atmosphere.

유해 중금속을 다량 함유하고 있는 산업폐기물의 고화 처리에 사용되는 칼슘설포알루미네이트(4CaO$\cdot$$3Al_2O_3$$\cdot$$SO_4$이후부터 CSA로 기입) 의 제조를 위해 철강부산물인 압연 슬러지를 활용하여 그 특성에 대해 조사하였다. 본 연구에서는 철강 부산물인 압연슬러지 외에 석회석 미분물, 인산부산 석고를 혼합하여 칼슘알루미네이트상을 합성하였다. 합성 결과 소성온도 1250$^{\circ}C$에서부터 CSA가 합성되었고, 이와 함께 칼슘실리케이트 (2CaO$\cdot$$SiO_2$)와 칼슘알루미노페라이트(4CaO$\cdot$$Al_2O_3$$\cdot$$Fe_2O_3$)도 함께 합성되었다. CSA 합성에 미치는 중금속 영향을 관찰한 결과 원료의 중금속이 CSA 합성 온도를 낮추는 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. CSA를 이용한 철강산업 폐기물의 중금속 고용 처리 연구에서도 본 실험에서 합성된 CSA가 폐기물의 중금속 고화 처리에 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다.
