Eupatilin (5,7-dihydroxy-3",4",6-trimethoxyflavone) is an active ingredient of an ethanol extract of Artemisia asiatica (DA-9601) that is used in the treatment of gastritis. In vitro and in vivo metabolism of eupatilin in the rats has been studied by LC- electrospray mass spectrometry. Rat liver microsomal incubation of eupatilin in the presence of NADPH and UDPGA resulted in the formation of four metabolites (M1-M4). M1, M2, M3 and M4 were tentatively identified as 3"- or- 4"-O-demethyl-eupatilin glucuronide, eupatilin glucuronide, 6-O-demethyleupatilin and 3"-or 4"-O-demethyl- eupatilin glucuronide, eupatilin glucuronide, 6-O-demethyleupatilin and 3"-or 4"-O- demethyl-eupatilin glucuronide, eupatilin glucuronide, 6-O demethyleupatilin and 3"-or 4"-O-demethyl-eupatilin glucuronide, respectively.

This study was conducted to study the influence of Co and Fe on the color of glaze and diopside crystals in the diopside crystal glaze empirically produced and used by ceramic artists, in case of adding $Co_3O_4$ and $Fe_2O_3$. As a result, the color of glaze was blue when $Co_3O_4$ was added to the diopside crystal glaze and the diopside crystals appeared pastel violet with Co included. When $Fe_2O_3$ was added to the diopside crystal glaze, the color of glaze appeared brown and the color of diopside crystals was goldenrod with Fe included. The crystals precipitated on the surface of diopside consisted of diopside crystals and diopside precursors. With longer retention time, the amount of diopside precursors decreased and the amount of diopside crystals increased. Also, Co was more easily included by the diopside crystals than Fe was and crystallizability of dispside was improved in case of including Co. Including Fe lowered peak intensity of properties and partially dissolved the diopside crystals.

This study investigates $Bi_2O_3$-$B_2O_3$-BaO-ZnO glass with variations of the $Co_3O_4$ content (0.25, 0.5, 1, and 2 wt%) and the interaction between transparent dielectric and Ag electrodes heat-treated at $500-560^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. The glass transition temperature, softening temperature and thermal expansion coefficient were $432^{\circ}C$, $460^{\circ}C$ and $81.4{\times}10^{-7}/^{\circ}C$, respectively. The transmittance of 0.25 wt% $Co_3O_4$ to which dielectric was added was highest and was decreased due to coloration with the addition of more than 0.25 wt%. However, without $Co_3O_4$, the transmittance of the transparent layer was decreased due to the formation of $Ba_5Bi_3$; however, the occurrence of the crystal phase decreased as a result of the addition of $Co_3O_4$. The amount of $Co^{2+}$ ions increased as the $Co_3O_4$ increased. With a maximum of $Co^{3+}$ ions, the highest transmittance was observed.

A solid-state electrochemicall cell for sensing CO2 gas was fabricated using a solid electrolyte of Li2CO3-Li3PO4-Al2O3 mixture and a reference electrode of LiMn2O4. The e.m.f. (electromotive force) of sensor showed a good accordance with theoretical Nernst slope (n=2) for CO2 gas concentration range of 100-10000 ppm above 35$0^{\circ}C$. The e.m.f. of sensor was constant regardless of oxygen partial pressure at the high temperature above 0.1 atm. It was, however, a little depended on oxygen partial pressure as the pressure decreased below 0.1 atm. The oxygen-dependency of our sensor gradually disappeared as the operating temperature increased. The sensing behavior of our CO2 sensor was affected by the presence of water vapor, but its effect was small comparing with other sensors.

Co, $Fe_3O_4$ and Co/$Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticles were synthesized by a polyol process in order to develop their new applications and improve chemical, magnetic properties. The synthesis involved a polyol process using Fe, Co acetylacetonate as precursors and 1-2 hexadecanediol as the polyol. The synthesized $Fe_3O_4$ and Co/$Fe_3O_4$ nanocomposite particles were monodispersed and self arrayed ranging in size of 8~10 and 10~25 nm, respectively. The Co nanoparticle has a crystallite size of 10~40 nm. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by their structural, morphological, compositional and magnetic properties using TEM-EDS, XRD, and PPMS techniques.

In this study, an experiment is performed to recover the Li in $Li_2CO_3$ phase from the cathode active material NMC ($LiNiCoMnO_2$) in waste lithium ion batteries. Firstly, carbonation is performed to convert the LiNiO, LiCoO, and $Li_2MnO_3$ phases within the powder to $Li_2CO_3$ and NiO, CoO, and MnO. The carbonation for phase separation proceeds at a temperature range of $600^{\circ}C{\sim}800^{\circ}C$ in a $CO_2$ gas (300 cc/min) atmosphere. At $600{\sim}700^{\circ}C$, $Li_2CO_3$ and NiO, CoO, and MnO are not completely separated, while Li and other metallic compounds remain. At $800^{\circ}C$, we can confirm that LiNiO, LiCoO, and $Li_2MnO_3$ phases are separated into $Li_2CO_3$ and NiO, CoO, and MnO phases. After completing the phase separation, by using the solubility difference of $Li_2CO_3$ and NiO, CoO, and MnO, we set the ratio of solution (distilled water) to powder after carbonation as 30:1. Subsequently, water leaching is carried out. Then, the $Li_2CO_3$ within the solution melts and concentrates, while NiO, MnO, and CoO phases remain after filtering. Thus, $Li_2CO_3$ can be recovered.

NiO nanoparticles were synthesized by hydrothermal method for the application to ethanol gas sensor. They were composited with $Co_3O_4$ nanoparticles to improve the sensitivity to ethanol gas. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the synthesized NiO nanoparticles were plate-shaped with the approximate size and thickness of 60 - 120 nm and 20 nm, respectively. On the other hand, $Co_3O_4$ nanoparticles mixed with NiO was observed to be spherical with the size range of 30 - 50 nm. The sensitivities of NiO sensors composited with $Co_3O_4$ nanoparticles at an optimal ratio of 8 : 2 were enhanced to approximately 1.44 - 1.79 times as high as those of as-synthesized NiO sensors for the ethanol concentration of 10 - 200 ppm at $200^{\circ}C$. The mechanism of the improved ethanol gas sensing of the NiO sensors composited with $Co_3O_4$ nanoparticles was discussed.

ZnO varistor ceramics which were fabricated with variation of added of 0.5～1.0 mol% Co$_3$O$_4$, were sintered at 1150 $^{\circ}C$. In the specimen added 0.7 mol% Co$_3$O$_4$, sintered density was 6.03 g/㎤ and electrical properties were superior to any other compositions. The nonlinear coefficient a and clamping voltage ratio were 83 and 1.35, respectively. But, endurance surge current in the specimen added 0.5 mol% Co$_3$O$_4$ was 7000 A/$\textrm{cm}^2$, and deviation of varistor voltage was Δ-3.23 %. As P.C.T and T.C.T environmental test were succeed in all specimens, and deviation of varistor voltage in the specimen added 0.6 mol% Co$_3$O$_4$ was Δ-0.81 %. All specimens showed good leakage current property on the High Temperature Continuous Load Test(HTCLT) for 1000 hr at 85 $^{\circ}C$ and variation rate of the varistor voltage below Δ-2.0 %.

$LiMO_{2}(M=Co,Ni)$ samples were synthesized with $Li_{2}CO_{3},\;Co_{3}O_{4}$, and NiO by the solid-state reaction method. In the case of $LiCoO_{2}$, at low temperature$(T=400^{\circ}C)$ spinel structure was synthesized and the obtained spinel phase was transformed to layered phase at high temperature$(T\ge600^{\circ}C)$. The phase transition behaviors of $LiCoO_{2}$ were investigated with various heating temperature and time. The rate of transition was directly proportional to the concentrations of reactant, and activation energy of reaction was around 6.76 kcal/mol. When CoO(rock salt structure) was used as a starting material instead of $Co_{3}O_{4}$(spinel structure), layered structure of $LiCoO_{2}$ was obtained at low temperature. In the case of $LiNiO_{2}$ the transition from layered structure to rock salt structure occurred easily by disordering/ordering reaction, but did not occur in $LiCoO_{2}$. The difference in metal ion radii in $LiCoO_{2}$ and $LiNiO_{2}$ results in different behaviors of phase transitions.

The formation of strontium titanate from several molar $SrCO_3$ and $TiO_2$ mixtures was studied in air and $CO_2$ gas Mixtures of $SrCO_3$ and $TiO_2$ were heated in air at 400-$600^{\circ}C$ DTA-TG was used to obtain thermal histories of simples heated in air and $CO_2$ gas. X-ray diffraction analysis was used to determine both the phase composition and the amounts of each phase present. The phase relationship of various compounds $SrTiO_3$, $Sr_2TiO_4$, $Sr_2Ti_3O_7$ and $Sr_4Ti_3O_{10}$ formed by the sintering in each composition was shown by the calibration curves. High temperature X-ray analysis was used to determine both the formation process and deformation process of each products. Small amount of SrTiO3 is formed first at the surface af contact SrTiO3 reacts with $SrCO_3$ to form Sr2TiO4 this is affected on the $CO_2$ pressure.
