최근 환경오염 문제로 인한 연비 규제 강화 속도가 빨라지고 있으며 이에 따른 연비 향상 기술이 크게 대두 되고 있다. 연비 향상 기술 중 경량화 방안소재로 알루미늄(Al), 마그네슘(Mg) 등의 비철금속을 주로 사용하고 있으며, 이중 알루미늄은 다른 경량화 금속소재보다 우수한 경쟁력을 가지고 있다. 하지만 경제적인 측면에서 철 대비 비용적인 어려움을 가지고 있고 용접성이 떨어지기 때문에, 자동차 부품의 일부만 알루미늄 소재를 선택하여 사용하고 있는 실정이며 알루미늄의 높은 이온화 경향으로 인해 기존 자동차 철강 소재와 접촉 시 쉽게 부식되는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서는 알루미늄의 금속원소를 첨가하는 연구가 지속적으로 개발 되고 있다. 알루미늄 합금에서 마그네슘의 첨가는 좋은 용접성과 내식성, 강도를 향상시킨다. 하지만 3%이상의 마그네슘 첨가는 입계에 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$석출상이 석출되게 되며, 입계에 연속적으로 형성된 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$석출상은 응력 부식 균열 (Stress corrsion cracking)과 입계 부식(Intergranular corrosion)을 야기하는 결과를 가져온다고 알려져 있다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 Al 5000계열 합금의 Zn의 첨가를 통해 ${\tau}(Al_xMg_yZn_z)$을 입계에 석출시켜서 입계에 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$상의 석출을 방지함으로써 내식성을 향상시키거나 Al 5000계열 합금의 열처리를 통해 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$석출상을 고용시킴으로써 응력부식균열의 발생을 억제하는 연구도 있다. 하지만 열처리 후 Polarization test를 이용한 내식성 연구는 잘 안 알려져 있다. 따라서 이번 연구에서는 Al5000계열의 주조한 합금을 DSC분석을 통하여 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$석출상의 고용 온도가 약 $470^{\circ}C$라는 것을 확인한 후, 실온에서 $100^{\circ}C/hr$으로 가열하고 조건에 따라 $450^{\circ}C$에서 3시간, 6시간, 12시간, 24시간, 30시간 항온 유지시킨 후 공냉을 진행하였다. 열처리를 마친 시편은 에폭시를 이용하여 마운팅 하였으며, 시편표면을 2000#까지 연마 후 증류수로 세척한 다음 질소를 이용하여 건조 후 분극 시험을 진행하였다. 3.5wt% NaCl 용액에서 분극 곡선을 통해 부식거동을 확인한 결과 24시간까지 시간이 증가 할수록 내식성이 우수해지는 것을 확인하였으며, 추가적으로 조직사진, SEM & EDS 분석과 XRD, TEM 분석을 통해 내식성은 입계에 존재하는 Mg의 조성이 감소하게 되면 내식성이 향상되는 것을 관찰하였다.

사용후핵연료는 열전도도가 극히 불량하다. 그러므로 지금까지는 파단면을 관찰하거나 또는 성분분석을 위해 EPMA을 이용할 때는 시편 표면을 Au나 란소 등으로 증착시키고 있다 그러나 사용후 핵연료에서는 강력한 방사선이 방출되므로 시편의 증착처리는 핫셀(hot cell)에서 원격조정기(manipulator)를 사용하여 수행하므로 많은 어려움이 있다. 특히 시편 표면의 Au나 탄소의 증착시에는 균일한 증착이 필요한데, 핫셀내에 설치한 기기는 유지 보수의 어려움으로 양호한 진공도 유지가 어려워 시편 표면의 균질한 증착은 문제점으로 되어 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 이산화우라늄 소결체를 표면의 증착처리 없이도 파단면 관찰이나 성분 분석을 할 수 있는 방법을 연구하여 silber paint법을 개발하였다. 특히 탄소가 미량 함유된 시편을 탄소 증착처리를 하면 증착된 탄소와 시편에 함유된 탄소를 분리해야 하는 어려운 점이 있으므로 이러한 경우에는 silber paint 법이 아주 편리하다.

A palatable paste-type lactic fermented rice (LFR) was prepared by lactic acid fermentation after liquefaction and saccharification of cooked rice. A mixed culture of Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus (1 : 1) produced the LFR of the best quality. A great improvement in quality of the LFR was achieved by 0.02% each ${\alpha}-amylase$ and glucoamylase treatment during the fermentation (simultaneous saccharification and fermentation), which resulted from the increased sourness and sweetness and the decreased size of solid particles contained in the LFR. The resulted LFR was superior in quality. Physical and chemical properties of the LFR were evaluated.

In this study, surface characteristics and corrosion behaviors have been investigated in addition to Zr elements on the low elastic modulus Ti-30Ta alloy. Low elastic modulus Ti-30Ta-xZr(x : 3, 7 and 15 wt %) alloys were prepared by arc melting and then heat treated at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 24 hrs in an argon atmosphere. Microstructures of the alloys were examined by field emission scanning electron microscope(FE-SEM) and X-ray diffractometer(XRD). Electrochemical experiments were performed using a conventional three-electrode configuration with a sample working electrode, a high density carbon counter electrode and a saturated calomel reference electrode. According to the result of polarization behavior in the Ti-30Ta-xZr alloys, the current density of homogenized Ti-30Ta-15Zr in the passive region was lower than the other alloys.

The evolution of microstructure and phases of Mg-10Al-Mn alloy by cooling plate method during homogenization treatment have been investigated with metallographic analysis, scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The ingots used for this experiment were prepared by cooling plate and homogenization heat treatment was performed at 300 and $400^{\circ}C$ for various holding times (0, 1, 4, 8 and 12h). The casting ingots were consisted of the fine grains and eutectic phases. And, these eutectic phases were dissolved into the matrix during homogenization treatment at $400^{\circ}C$ but the lower temperature (at $300^{\circ}C$) did not be.

Effects of Ti addition and homogenizing heat treatment on the mechanical properties in Cu-Zn-Al alloy (high strength yellow brass) were investigated. Grain refinement was successfully achieved by Ti addition. The microstructure, which was composed of island or fine feather-like branched Ti compounds was changed to feather-like eutectic microstructure as the content of Ti increased. The highest hardness value was obtained for 0.5 wt.% Ti specimen and the second was Ti non-added specimen in as-cast condition. The highest tensile strength was obtained for 0.5 wt.% Ti specimen. Because of the presence of cast defects and worse castability, tensile strength decreased as the content of Ti increased. Elongation increased with increasing homogenizing time and temperature; remarkable increase was obtained for $400^{\circ}C$ homogenizing temperature in the 0.5 wt.% Ti specimen. For $500^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$ homhgenizing, temperature, high elongation was obtained in 2 and 4 wt.% Ti specimen.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of P addition and homogenizing heat treatment on the mechanical properties of Cu-Sn-Ni alloy. The addition of P was 0.025wt.%P to 0.085wt.%P and homogenizing heat-treated at 400, 500, $600^{\circ}C$ under $N_2$ gas atmosphere. Mechanical properties was investigated in this study were Rockwell hardness, tensile strength, and elongation. Tensile strength and elongation increased with P and homogenizing time. Temperature was significantly influence on mechanical properties. Hardness decreased with increasing homogenizing time and temperature, but 0.085wt.%P specimen was showed higher hardness and lower tensile strength and elongation than 0.073wt.%P specimen due to the presence of more $Cu_3P$ in matrix.

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.

In this paper, a new radiating structure with a multi-layered two-dimensional metallic disk array was proposed for shaping the flat-topped element pattern. It is an infinite periodic planar array structure with metallic disks finitely stacked above the radiating circular waveguide apertures. The theoretical analysis was in detail performed using rigid full-wave analysis, and was based on modal representations for the fields in the partial regions of the array structure and for the currents on the metallic disks. The final system of linear algebraic equations was derived using the orthogonal property of vector wave functions, mode-matching method, boundary conditions and Galerkin's method, and also their unknown modal coefficients needed for calculation of the array characteristics were determined by Gauss elimination method. The application of the algorithm was demonstrated in an array design for shaping the flat-topped element patterns of $\pm$20$^{\circ}$ beam width in Ka-band. The optimal design parameters normalized by a wavelength for general applications are presented, which are obtained through optimization process on the basis of simulation and design experience. A Ka-band experimental breadboard with symmetric nineteen elements was fabricated to compare simulation results with experimental results. The metallic disks array structure stacked above the radiating circular waveguide apertures was realized using ion-beam deposition method on thin polymer films. It was shown that the calculated and measured element patterns of the breadboard were in very close agreement within the beam scanning range. The result analysis for side lobe and grating lobe was done, and also a blindness phenomenon was discussed, which may cause by multi-layered metallic disk structure at the broadside. Input VSWR of the breadboard was less than 1.14, and its gains measured at 29.0 GHz. 29.5 GHz and 30 GHz were 10.2 dB, 10.0 dB and 10.7 dB, respectively. The experimental and simulation results showed that the proposed multi-layered metallic disk array structure could shape the efficient flat-topped element pattern.
