Valence states and electronic structures of Cr-doped $Nd_{1/2}A_{1/2}Mn_{1-y}Cr_{y}O_3$(NAMO; A=Ca, Sr) manganites have been investigated using x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and high-resolution photoemission spectroscopy (PES). All the Cr-doped NAMO systems exhibit the clear metallic Fermi edges in the Mn $e_{g}$ PES spectra near $E_{F}$. The spectral intensity at $E_{F}$ is higher for Cr-doped N $d_{l}$ 2/S $r_{l}$ 2/Mn $O_3$(NSMO) than for Cr-doped N $d_{l}$ 2/C $a_{l}$ 2/Mn $O_3$ (NCMO), reflecting the stronger metallic nature for NSMO than for NCMO. The measured Cr 2p XAS spectra are found to be very similar to that of C $r_2$ $O_3$, indicating that Cr ions in Cr-doped NAMO are in the trivalent C states ( $t^3$$_{2g}$). The Cr 2p XAS data are consistent with the Cr 3d PES spectra located at ∼1.3 eV below $E_{F}$ and having no emission near $E_{F}$.

Three new cyanide-bridged $Cr^{III}Mn^{II}$ binuclear complexes, $[Mn(phen)_2Cl][Cr(bpmb)(CN)_2]{\cdot}H_2O$ ($\mathbf{1}$) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, $bpdmb^{2-}$ = 1,2-bis(pyridine-2-carboxamido)-4-methyl-benzenate), $[Mn(phen)_2Cl][Cr(bpmb)-(CN)_2]{\cdot}H_2O$ ($\mathbf{2}$) ($bpdmb^{2-}$ = 1,2-bis(pyridine-2-carboxamido)-4,5-dimethyl-benzenate), and $[Mn(phen)_2Cl]-[Cr(bpClb)(CN)_2]{\cdot}CH_3OH{\cdot}H_2O$ ($\mathbf{3}$) ($bpClb^{2-}$ = 1,2-bis(pyridine-2-carboxamido)-4-chloro-benzenate) were obtained based on $Mn(phen)_2Cl_2$ and a series of dicyanidechromate(III) building blocks. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows the structures of the three complexes are dimeric type with two different metal centers linked by a cyanide group from corresponding dicyanidechromate(III) building block. Magnetic investigations indicate the existence of relatively weak antiferromagnetic coupling between Cr(III) and Mn(II) ions with best-fit constants $J_{CrMn}=-2.78(5)cm^{-1}$ for $\mathbf{1}$, $J_{CrMn}=-3.02(2)cm^{-1}$ for $\mathbf{2}$ and $J_{CrMn}=-2.27(3)cm^{-1}$ for $\mathbf{3}$ based on the spin exchange Hamiltonian = $-2J_{CrMn}\hat{S}_{Cr}\hat{S}_{Mn}$. The magneto-structural correlation of cyanide-bridged $Cr^{III}Mn^{II}$ complexes has been discussed at last.

A new polystyrene-divinylbenzene chelating resin containing 4,5-dihydroxy-naphthalene-2,7-disulfonic acid (chromotropic acid : CTA) as functional group has been synthesized and characterized. The sorption and desorption properties of this chelating resin for Cr(III) ion and Cr(VI) ion including nine metal bloodstain. As a results, FOB test kit could be effectively applied to identification of human blood at chelating resin was stable in acidic and alkaline solution. The Cr(VI) ion is selectively separated from Cr (III) ion at pH 2 and the maximum sorption capacity of Cr(VI) ion is 1.2 mmol/g. In the presence of anions such as $F^-$, $SO{_4}^{2-}$, $CN^-$, $CH_3COO^-$, $NO{_3}^-$, the sorption of Cr(VI) ion was reduced but anions such as $PO{_4}^{3-}$ and $Cl^-$ revealed no interference effect. The elution order of metal ions obtained from breakthrough capacity and overall capacity at pH 2 was Cr(VI)>Sn(II)>Fe(III)>Cu(II)>Cd(II)${\simeq}Pb(II){\simeq}Cr(III){\simeq}Mn(II){\simeq}Ni(II){\simeq}Al(III)$. Desorption characteristics for Cr(VI) ion was investigated with desorption agents such as $HNO_3$, HCl, and $H_2SO_4$. It was found that the ion showed high desorption efficiency with 3 M HCl. As the result, the chelating resin, XAD-16-CTA was successfully applied to separation and preconcentration of Cr (VI) ion from several metal ions in metal finishing works.

This study was designed to investigate the adsorption of heavy metal ions by untreated bark according to the treatment conditions of aqueous solution. The effect of temperature and pH of aqueous solution, particle size of bark, addition of light metal ions on the adsorption was examined, and the competition in adsorption among heavy metal ions was also evaluated. te The adsorption ratio of $Cu^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ increased with increasing themperature of solution from $-5^{\circ}C$ to $10^{\circ}C$ however, it was relatively constant at temperatures between $10^{\circ}C$ and $55^{\circ}C$. The adsorption ratio of $Cr^{6+}$ increased continuously with increasing the temperature of solution. The maximum adsorption ratio of $Cu^{2+}$, $Zn^{2+}$, and $Pb^{2+}$ was noted at pHs ranged 6 to 7; however, the adsorption ratio declined sharply on either sides of the optimum. The adsorption ratio of $Cr^{6+}$ decreased continuously with increasing the pH of solution. The adsorption ratio increased as decreasing the particle size of bark, and there was little differences in adsorption tendency between pine and oak bark. By the addition of $Ca^{2+}$ or $Mg^{2+}$(10~25 ppm), the adsorption ratio of $Cu^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ increased. An increase of the adsorption ratio was higher in oak bark than in pine bark. However, the adsorption ratio of $Pb^{2+}$ and $Cr^{6+}$ was not affected by the addition of light metal ions. As the mixed solution of 2 or 3 kinds of heavy metal ions($Cu^{2+}$, $Zn^{2+}$, $Pb^{2+}$) was treated with the untreated bark, the adsorption of $Zn^{2+}$ decreased considerably because of the competitive adsorption among heavy metal ions. Also the adsorption of $Cu^{2+}$ was more and less reduced. However the adsorption of $Pb^{2+}$ was not affected by the presence of other heavy metal ions.

This investigation was made to evaluate the corrosion inhibiting effects of urotropine for mild steel in HCl. 1) Formaldehyde produced by the decomposition of urotropine also showed positive inhibiting effects. 2) In the presence of the ions, such as $Cu^+$, $Cu^{++}$, $Fe^{+++}$, $SO_3^=$, $SO_4^=$, $NO_2^-$, $NO_3^-$, $Cr_2O_7^=$, the inhibiting capacity of the urotropine was decreased. Alkali and alkaline-earth metal ions had no effects but the halogen ions improved it. 3) From measurements of polarization curves, it was assumed that the anode reaction was more retarded by the urotropine and the halogen.

Cation exchange capacity of clay, white clay and zeolite was measured by the adsorption test for 3 different heavy metal (Cd, Cr, Zn) standard solutions whose concentrations were varied by 10, 20, 30 ppm and pH were varied by 3, 5, 7, 9, respectively. The adsorption rate of Cd and Zn increased with increasing pH and slowly increased with increasing pH above pH 5. However, adsorption rate of Cr did not increase with increasing pH. Especially, Cr adsorption rate of the mixture of clay and white clay at pH 5 showed an half decrease compared to that at pH 3. The adsorption rate of mixed heavy metal solutions was in the order of Cd, Zn > Cr; however, the order was changed by Fe>Pb, Cu>Cr>Zn>Cd in case of Cu, Fe and Pb addition.

The quantitative determination of chromium(VI) by separation from chromium(III) complex of 8-hydroxyquinoline using solvent extraction has been studied. The reaction conditions for chromium(III) complex of 8-hydroxyquinoline and the solvent extraction of complex were investigated in detail. The chromium(III) complex was extracted with organic solvent (n-hexane) and residual chromium(VI) was determined by ICP-AES in aqueous layer. This technique is quantitative in the pH range of 8-9 and the limitations such as interfering ions were discussed.

Heavy metal ion immobilization properties of microporous ettringite (3Ca$O{\cdot}Al_2O_3{\cdot}3CaSO_4{\cdot}32H_2$) body were examined using standard solutions of typical heavy metals. Microporous Ettringite body with desirable shape for an ionic adsorbent was obtained by the self hardening of the paste prepared from the mixture of tricalcium aluminate($C_3$A) and gypsum(CaS$O_4{\cdot}2H_2$O). Crushed grains of ettringite were soaked in each standard solutions of Pb, Co, Cd, Mn and Cr concentrated at 200 ppm. In order to evaluate the ionexchange and immobilization ability, the ionic concentration of the filtrate solution as well as the solution obtained after leaching test was measured. As a result, for the heavy metal ions excepting Cr, porous ettringite body was revealed to be excellent in ionic exchange and immobilization properties though some ions eluted at the severe condition of pH 2. The adsorption and keeping capacity for four heavy metals showed the order of $Pb{>}Co{>}Cd{>}$Mn.

Erbium doped garnet crystals were grown by Czochralski method. Relationshipes between crystal quality and crystal growth factors such as pulling rate, rotation rate and concentration of active ions and sensitizers were investigated. Optimum pulling and rotation rate for high quality Er:YAG crystal were 1 mm/hr and 20 rpm and for Er,Cr:YSGG crystal 2-4 mm/hr and 10 rpm respectively. The size of the crystals grown was up to 20-30 mm in diameters and 95-135 mm in length. Er:YAG crystal grown under the nitrogen atmosphere was pink and transparent and Er,Cr:YSGG under the 98% {{{{ { N}_{ 2} }}}} and 2% {{{{ { O}_{2 } }}}} was dark green and transparent. Under the polarizing microscopic observations with crossed polar, striations and {211} core facets were detected. Spectroscopic properties for Er,Cr:YSGG laser rods with <111> axis, 80 mm in length and 6.3 mm in diameter for medical laser applications of 2.79 ${\mu}$m wavelength were manufactured and then laser oscillation was achieved.
