The polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are mostly synthesized by the marine original microorganisms. In this study, the effect of concentrations of glucose, NaCl, and $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ on both the growth and the production of lipid and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) was investigated using Thraustochytrium aureum ATCC 34304. $Y_{Lipid/X}\;and\;Y_{DHA/Lipid}$ increased according to the increase of initial glucose concentration until 15 g/L of glucose. The maximum values of $Y_{Lipid/X}\;and\;Y_{DHA/Lipid}$ were 0.18 g/g and 0.41 g/g respectively at 15 g/L of glucose. The biomass yield, $Y_{x/s}$, however, was constant as 0.378 g/g regardless of initial glucose concentrations in the range of 5 g/L to 25 g/L. The specific growth rate of T. aureum increased also with initial glucose concentration from 5 g/L and 15 g/L. The maximum value was $0.79\;day^{-1}$ at 15 g/L of glucose, and the growth rate decreased to $0.57\;day^{-1}$ and remained constant according to initial sugar concentration in the range of higher than 15 g/L of glucose. The concentration of NaCl was changed from 0 g/L to 48 g/L, in order to study the characteristics of the growth and the production of lipid and DHA according to NaCl concentration. The growth and the production of lipid as well as DHA stopped all at 0 g/L of NaCl and the maximum values of all the three variables occurred at 24 g/L. The effect of $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ concentration was also investigated not to find the growth and the production of lipid and DHA at 0 g/L. However, the growth and the Production with $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ concentration increased to reach the maximum values at 18 g/L of $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$.

A hydrothermal process was used to synthesize dioctahedral smectite from dickite [$A1_2$$Si_2$$O_{5}$ $(OH)_4$], Dickite was previously activated by heating at $800^{\circ}C$ far 4 hours with $Na_2$$CO_3$. After the heat-treatment, $SiO_2$ was added for stoichiometry, The autoclaving was carried out in closed stainless steel vessel (about 1 liter) at the condition of various temperature, pressure, time etc. High quality smectite could be obtaind by heating at $290^{\circ}C$ under the pressure of 60 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ for 48 hours. This experiment reveals that pH of the solution was an important factor and should be maintained at 10 to 11 for the formation of dioctahedral smectite. The synthesized smectite was identified as Na-beidellite by the treatment of ethylene glycol and Greene-Kelly test.

From the ancient to these days, there have been used many kinds of pigment which have two types that are inorganic pigment and organic pigment. At the ancient times, natural pigment had been used but the artificially mixed pigment has been used in modern times. By the way, searching for studies has been studied recently, it would be said the ancient pigments such as Danchung, Wall painting and Mural painting are the mainthema. However, studies about the pigments used in modern pictured relics have rarely can be found. Therefore, this analysis of Ilweolokdo would be important at the point of the pigments used in pictures of royal family in modern times and the results can be briefly summarized as below; Firstly, the results of qualitative analysis of the pigments that base or all pigments of picture was detected components of Ca, Fe and As, this results meaning that picture was used filler and basic paint. Secondly, a result of the analysis on the composition elements of the pigments shows that the main components in their composition are ;White - Lead Cyanamide($2PbCO_3$.$Pb(OH)_2$) or Titanium Oxide($TiO_2$)Blue - Ultramarine($2(Na_2O$.$Al_2O_3$ .$2Si_O2$).$Na_2S_2$)Green - Emerald green($C_2H_3A_s3Cu_2O_8$)Gold - Gold(Au), Red-Red Lead($Pb_3O_4$) or Cinnabar(HgS)Black - Carbon(C)Thirdly, X-ray diffraction analysis of crystalline structure for the blue and green pigment peeling off in picture shows that the components of blue pigment is Ultramarine($2(Na_2O$.$Al_2O_3$ .$2Si_O2$).$Na_2S_2$) and green pigment is Emerald green($C_2H_3A_s3Cu_2O_8$). Especially, microcrystalline structure of the green pigment was the shape like a cross section of wood. Consequently, we knew through the analysis of qualitative and microcrystallinestructures seen on the cross section of analyzed pigments layer that the all pigments used in the Ilweoloakdo is possible to use synthetic pigments in modern.

We investigated the characteristics of electroless plated Cu films on screen printed Ag/Anodized Al substrate. Cu plating was attempted using neutral electroless plating processes to minimize damage of the anodized Al substrate; this method used sodium hypophosphite instead of formaldehyde as a reducing agent. The basic electroless solution consisted of $CuSO_4{\cdot}5H_2O$ as the main metal source, $NaH_2PO_2{\cdot}H_2O$ as the reducing agent, $C_6H_5Na_3O_7{\cdot}2H_2O$ and $NH_4Cl$ as the complex agents, and $NiSO_4{\cdot}6H_2O$ as the catalyser for the oxidation of the reducing agent, dissolved in deionized water. The pH of the Cu plating solutions was adjusted using $NH_4OH$. According to the variation of pH in the range of 6.5~8, the electroless plated Cu films were coated on screen printed Ag pattern/anodized Al/Al at $70^{\circ}C$. We investigated the surface morphology change of the Cu films using FE-SEM (Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy). The chemical composition of the Cu film was determined using XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy). The crystal structures of the Cu films were investigated using XRD (X-ray Diffraction). Using electroless plating at pH 7, the structures of the plated Cu-rich films were typical fcc-Cu; however, a slight Ni component was co-deposited. Finally, we found that the formation of Cu film plated selectively on PCB without any lithography is possible using a neutral electroless plating process.

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (Nps), composed of magnetite, $Fe_3O_4$, or maghemite, ${\gamma}-Fe_2O_3$, core and biocompatible polymer shell, such as dextran or chitozan, have recently found wide applications in magnetic resonance imaging, contrast enhancement and hyperthermia therapy. For different diagnostic and therapeutic applications, current attempt is focusing on the synthesis and biomedical applications of various ferrite Nps, such as $CoFe_2O_4$ and $MnFe_2O_4$, differing from iron oxide Nps in charge, surface chemistry and magnetic properties. This study is focused on the synthesis of manganese ferrite, $MnFe_2O_4$, Nps by most commonly used chemical way pursuing better control of their size, purity and magnetic properties. Co-precipitation syntheses were performed using aqueous alkaline solutions of Mn(II) and Fe(III) salts and NaOH within a wide pH range using various hydrothermal treatment regimes. Different additives, such as citric acid, cysteine, glicine, polyetylene glycol, triethanolamine, chitosan, etc., were tested on purpose to obtain good yield of pure phase and monodispersed Nps with average size of ${\leq}20nm$. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy down to cryogenic temperatures, magnetic measurements and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry were employed in this study.

'Tracers' are bullets that emit light at the backside so that the shooter can see the trajectory of their flight. These light-emitting bullets allow snipers to hit targets faster and more accurately. Conventional tracers are all combustion type which use the heat generated upon ignition. However, the conventional tracer has a fire risk at the impact site due to the residual flame and has a by-product that can contaminate the inside of the gun and lead to firearm failure. To resolve these problems, it is necessary to develop non-combustion-type tracers that can convert heat to luminance, so-called 'thermoluminescence (TL)'. Here, we highly improve the thermoluminescence properties of MgB₄O₇ through co-doping of Dy³⁺+Ce³⁺ and Dy³⁺+Na⁺. The presence of doping materials (Dy³⁺, Ce³⁺, Na⁺) was confirmed by XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy). The as-synthesized co-doped MgB₄O₇ was irradiated with a specific radiation dose and heated to 500 ℃under dark conditions. Different thermoluminescence characteristics were exhibited depending on the type or amounts of doping elements, and the highest luminance of 370 cd/m² was obtained when Dy 10 % and Na 5 % were co-doped.

PTC thermistor are characterized by an increase in the electrical resistance with temperature. The PTC materials of middle Curie point were produced or that of high Curie point (above $200^{\circ}C$), it was determined that compositional modifications of $Pb^{2+}$ for $Ba^{2+}$ produce change sin the Curie point to higher temperature. PTC ceramic materials with the Curie point above $120^{\circ}C$ were prepared by adding $PbTiO_3$, PbO or $Pb_3O_4$ into $BaTiO_3$. Thereby, adding $Pb^{2+}$ into $BaTiO_3$-based PTC material to improve Tc was studied broadly, however, weal know that PbO was poisonous and prone to volatilize, then to pollute the circumstance and hurt to people, so we should dope other innocuous additives instead of lead to increase Tc of composite PTC material. In order to prepare lead-free $BaTiO_3$-based PTC with middle Curie point, the incorporation on $Bi_{1/2}Na_{1/2}TiO_3$ into $BaTiO_3$-based ceramics was investigated on samples containing 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 50mol% of $Bi_{1/2}Na_{1/2}TiO_3$. $Bi_{1/2}Na_{1/2}TiO_3$ was compounded as standby material by conventional solid-state reaction technique. The starting materials were $Bi_{1/2}Na_{1/2}TiO_3$, $BaCO_3$, $TiO_2$ and $Y_2O_3$ powder, and using solid-state reaction method, too. The microstructures of samples were investigated by SEM, DSC, XRD and dielectric properties. Phase composition and lattice parameters were investigated by X-ray diffraction.

Metal/cobalt ferrite composite thin films with the saturation magnetization (M_s$)of~580 emu/cm3 and the coercivity(Hc) of 1700 Oe were prepared by the reactive sputtering. With increasing substrate temperature, Ms of the thin films increased, while Hc of the thin films decrease. This sttributed to the precipitation of $Co_xFe_{1-x}(x {\appro}x0.62)$ metal phase in the thin films. The metal phase showed the BCC structure ($a_0$=2.89 $\AA$) and Im3m space group. Also, the cobalt ferrite phase was identified as$ CoFe_2O_4$ with a cubic structure ($a_0=8.39 $\AA$$) and a space group of Fd3m. For the higher cobalt content than the stoichiometric composition,$ Co_{37.8}Fe_{62.2}$, the thin films with high Ms and Hc could be obtained in the wide substrate temperature range (200-40$0^{\circ}C$).

This study investigates the mechanical properties and reaction products of activated slag pastes depending on gypsum presence and calcium carbonate addition in terms of compressive strength tests and synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The chemicals of CaO and NaOH are used as activators with different two dosages. The reaction of CaO-activated slag without gypsum just accelerated by addition of calcium carbonate at early ages, but no improvement was observed at later ages. On the other hand, the mechanical properties of CaO-activated slag pastes with gypsum were improved with calcium carbonate, enhancing the stability of ettringite. The variation of mechanical properties of NaOH-activated slag pastes was negligible depending on calcium carbonate addition in case of no gypsum. The addition of calcium carbonate into NaOH-activated slag pastes with gypsum deteriorated its mechanical properties due to the ion competition between CO₃^2- ions and SO₃^2- ions, decreasing crystallinity of reaction products.

$Ni_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}(OH)_2$ powders have been synthesized in a continuously stirred tank reactor via a co-precipitation reaction between aqueous metal sulfates and NaOH using $NH_4OH$ as a chelating agent. The co-precipitation temperature is varied in the range of $30-80^{\circ}C$. Calcination of the prepared precursors with $Li_2CO_3$ for 8 h at $1000^{\circ}C$ in air results in Li $Ni_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ powders. Two kinds of obtained powders have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy, particle size analyzer, and tap density measurements. The co-precipitation temperature does not differentiate the XRD patterns of precursors as well as their final powders. Precursor powders are spherical and dense, consisting of numerous acicular or flaky primary particles. The precursors obtained at 70 and $80^{\circ}C$ possess bigger primary particles having more irregular shapes than those at lower temperatures. This is related to the lower tap density measured for the former. The final powders show a similar tendency in terms of primary particle shape and tap density. Electrochemical characterization shows that the initial charge/discharge capacities and cycle life of final powders from the precursors obtained at 70 and $80^{\circ}C$ are inferior to those at $50^{\circ}C$. It is concluded that the optimum co-precipitation temperature is around $50^{\circ}C$.
