The corrosion characteristics of Al-Si-Mg alloy were investigated in $O_2$ and $H_2S/H_2$ environments at high temperature. The weight gain and the reaction rate constant of the Al-Si-Mg alloy were measured in the oxygen and hydrogen sulfide environments at 773K. The weight gain of Al-Si-Mg alloy was showed parabolic increase in the oxygen and hydrogen sulfide environments. The reaction rate constants were confirmed to be $1.45{\times}10^{-4}mg^2cm^{-4}sec^{-2}$ in the oxygen environment and $6.19{\times}10^{-4}mg^2cm^{-4}sec^{-2}$ in the hydrogen sulfide environment respectively. As a result of XPS analysis on the specimen surface, $Al_2O_3$ and MgO compounds were detected in oxygen environment and $Al_2(SO_4)_3$ sulfate was detected in the hydrogen sulfide environment. Corrosion rate of Al-Si-Mg alloy was about 4.3 times faster in hydrogen sulfide environment than oxygen environment.

We obtained sputtering yields for the MgO, $MgAl_2O_4$ and $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ films using the FIB system. $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ protective layers have been found to have less $24^{\sim}^30%$ sputtering yield values from 0.24 atoms/ion up to 0.36 atoms/ion than MgO layers with the values from 0.36 atoms/ion up to 0.45 atoms/ion for irradiated $Ga^+$ ion beam whose energies ranged from 10 keV to 14 keV. And $MgAl_2O_4$ layers have been found to have lowest sputtering yield values from 0.88 up to 0.11. It is also found that $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ and MgO have secondary electron emission $coefficient({\gamma})$ values from 0.09 up to 0.12 for $Ne^+$ ion whose energies ranged from 50 eV to 200 eV.

It is known that $MgAl_2O_4$ has higher resistance to moisture than MgO, in humid ambient MgO is chemically unstable. It reacts very easily with moisture in the air. In this study, the characteristic of $MgAl_2O_4$ and $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ layers as dielectric protection layers for AC- PDP (Plasma Display Panel) have been investigated and analysed in comparison for conventional MgO layers. MgO and $MgAl_2O_4$ films both with a thickness of $1000\AA$ and $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ film with a thickness of $200/800\AA$ were grown on the Cu substrates using the electron beam evaporation. $1000\AA$ thick aluminium layers were deposited on the protective layers in order to avoid the charging effect of $Ga^+$ ion beam while the focused ion beam(FIB) is being used. We obtained sputtering yieds for the MgO, $MgAl_2O_4$ and $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ films using the FIB system. $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ protective layers have been found th show $24{\sim}30%$ lower sputtering yield values from 0.244 up to 0.357 than MgO layers with the values from 0.364 up to 0.449 for irradiated $Ga^+$ ion beam with energies ranged from 10 kV to 14 kV. And $MgAl_2O_4$ layers have been found to show lowest sputtering yield values from 0.88 up to 0.109. Secondary electron emission coefficient(g) using the ${\gamma}$- FIB. $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ and MgO have been found to have similar g values from 0.09 up to 0.12 for indicated $Ne^+$ ion with energies ranged from 50 V to 200 V. Observed images for the surfaces of MgO and $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ protective layers, after discharge degradation process for 72 hours by SEM and AFM.

Phase stability diagrams were constructed for magnesium alanate (Mg(AlH₄)₂) nanoparticles to investigate the reversible hydrogen storage reaction by using density functional theory. Our findings indicate that bulk Mg(AlH₄)₂ shows favorable hydrogen release, but unfavorable hydrogen uptake (adsorption) reactions. However, for Mg(AlH₄)₂ nanoparticles, it was observed that hydrogen release and recharge can be achieved by controlling the particle size and temperature. Furthermore, by predicting the decomposition phase diagram of Mg(AlH₄)₂ nanoparticles with varying hydrogen partial pressure, it was discovered that reversible dehydrogenation reactions can occur even in relatively large nanoparticles by controlling the hydrogen partial pressure.

This paper reports the studies on the wear-corrosion behavior of Al-Mg alloy in various pH environments. In various pH of sea water, corrosion and wear-corrosion loss of Al-Mg alloy were investigated. Also, the polarization test of Al-Mg alloy using potentiostat/galvanostat was carried out. And the rubbed surface of Al-Mg alloy using scanning electron micrographs after wear-corrosion test was examined in various pH values of sea water. The main results are as following : The polarization resistance of Al-Mg alloy in pH 4 solution is higer than that in pH 6.7 solution, and the corrosion current density in pH 4 is controlled than in pH 6.7 solution. The wear-corrosion loss of Al-Mg alloy with lowering pH becomes sensitive. As the oxide product of Al-Mg alloy appears granular structure and exholiation phenomenon, wear-corrosion loss of Al-Mg alloy increases.

In this study, the effect of pre-aging treatment for inhibition of natural aging of Al-4.8Zn-1.3Mg alloy by extrusion process was investigated. Firstly, the as-cast microstructure of Al-4.8Zn-1.3Mg alloy billet and its evolution during homogenization($460^{\circ}C$, $4h+510^{\circ}C$, 5h) were investigated by means of optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), hardness analysis. The as-cast microstructures of Al-4.8Zn-1.3Mg alloy reveal $Mg_2Zn$, $Al_5Cu$, $Al_{13}Cu$ formed between dendrities. After homogenization, MgZn, $Al_4Cu$, $Al_{13}Cu$ phases precipitated into the matrix. In addition, standard deviation of homogenized billet was improved than as-cast billet from 2.62 to 0.99. According to pre-aging($100^{\circ}C$, 1h) Al-4.8Zn-1.3Mg alloy by extrusion process, yield strength and tensile strength deviation improved more than condition by natural aging.

Mg/Al layered double hydroxide with two-dimensional (2D) nanostructures was synthesized by a hydrothermal technique. The morphology and aspect ratio of $Mg_4Al_2(OH)_{14}3H_2O$ were controlled by the concentration and kinds of the hydrolysis agent, and temperature. The aspect ratio of $Mg_4Al_2(OH)_{14}3H_2O$ layered double hydroxides with the 2D hexagonal crystal structure was tailored from about 12.6 to about 45.7. The intercalated $CO{_3}^{2-}$ anions of the synthesized 2D $Mg_4Al_2(OH)_{14}3H_2O$ layered double hydroxides were exchanged to $NO_3{^-}$ anions. The bulk 2D $Mg_4Al_2(OH)_{14}3H_2O$ layered double hydroxides with the increased space between two layers due to the anion exchange were exfoliated in a formamide solution. The aspect ratio of the exfoliated 2D $Mg_4Al_2(OH)_{14}3H_2O$ layered double hydroxides increased to 570.3.

Nanofiltration was performed with polyaluminium chloride solutions at different pH conditions to understand effects of inorganic compounds on aluminum hydrolysis products, i.e., three distinctive groups of aluminum species: polymeric Al at low pH; $Al(OH)_3$ at neutral pH; and ${Al(OH)_4}^-$ at high pH. The PACl solution was prepared to be approximately 4.0mM and adjusted to the designated pH. The influence of inorganic compounds on Al species fouling was investigated with 4.9mM $CaCl_2$ and 3.5mM $MgSO_4$ because $Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$, $Cl^-$, ${SO_4}^{2-}$ are the most common inorganics in the drinking water. NF membrane fouling was measured by flux decline rate. The impact of $CaCl_2$ was not significant on the individual Al hydrolysis products fouling. However, the flux decline rate was drastically changed in the presence of $MgSO_4$. The concentration of particulate matters was considerably increased possibly due to interaction between Al species and ${SO_4}^{2-}$ where $MgSO_4$ was introduced. The particulates were accumulated on the membrane and enhanced the hydraulic resistance of the cake layer. In addition, conductivity removal of the membrane was decreased when Al-hydroxide was dominant due to reduction of membrane surface charge. The rejection of $Ca^{2+}$and $Mg^{2+}$ were considerably different, which implys that composition of inorganics paly a role on conductivity removal.

Motukoreaite and quintinite-3T, Mg-Al layered double hydroxides, were found in the Sinyangri Formation of Jeju Island. They fill the pores of basaltic volcaniclastic sediments in globular and botryoidal aggregates of fine platy particles. Globular aggregates of quintinite-3T were crusted with the parallel overgrowth of motukoreaite plates. X-ray diffraction data and chemical composition are consistent with those reported in literature, while the Mg/Al ratio of motukoreaite is higher. Structural formula of motukoreaite and quintinite-3T derived from electron microprobe analysis are $Na_{1.6}Ca_{0.1}Mg_{40.7}Al_{20.7}Si_{0.9}(CO_3)_{13.6}(SO_4)_{7.4}(OH)_{108}56H_2O$, and $Mg_{3.7}Al_{1.9}Si_{0.2}(OH)_{12}(CO_3)_{0.8}(SO_4)_{0.2}3H_2O$, respectively. Motukoreaite and quintinite-3T were formed by reaction between seawater and basaltic glass, and contributed to the cementation and lithification of the volcaniclastic sediments.
