Worldwide magnesium market has been considerably growing recently due to adoption as light materials for automobile engines and electronic devices such as mobile phones. In this study, it is to prepare magnesium oxide, which is the first-step product in smelting of magnesium from the ore, using magnesite of Yongyanag mines in North Korea as raw ores. MgO grade of the magnesite was about 45 wt%, and SiO$_2$, CaO, Al$_2O_3$ and Fe$_2O_3$ were contained as impurities. The sample ore was crushed, classified and thermally analyzed to determine its calcination temperature. The sample of 45-75 ${\mu}m$ size was calcined at 600-900$^{\circ}C$, and effect of temperature on calcination and change of the particle shape was investigated. Optimum temperature of the calcination was about 750$^{\circ}C$, and 30 minutes was sufficient to obtain over 99% conversion. The purity of the calcined MgO was about 95 wt%.

This research examined the fundamental property of the MgO as the fundamental study that substituted the MgO in the low melting point modified sulfur mortar to examine the physical properties.In this research, the table floor, flexural strength test, and compressive strength test were performed. And as the replacement ratio increased, the floor showed the tendency to increase. And when being the replacement ratio 3%, the flexural strength and compressive strength made the high strength. In case of being substituted for over 5% they displayed the tendency that the intensity is degraded.

Mg합금은 지극히 열악한 내산화성을 갖는 MgO로 산화되기 때문에, 모든 Mg합금은 고온에서는 쉽게 산화되고 발화된다. 그러나, CaO를 첨가하면 CaO가 시편의 노출면적을 줄이고, 산소의 내부확산을 억제함으로써 시편 표면에 얇고 균일한 보호피막을 형성하여 Mg합금의 산화 저항성을 증가시켰다.

Meander 형태의 인덕터를 각각 산화마그네슘 (MgO)기판과 산화 알루미늄 ($Al_2O_3$) 기판 위에 구현하여 고주파 특성을 구조 시뮬레이션을 통해 연구하였다. 고주파 시뮬레이션을 통해서 적절한 구조의 meander 형태의 인덕터를 선정하여 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 시뮬레이션시 사용된 알루미늄 상부전극은 길이 282 nm, 폭 45 nm, 두께 100 nm, 간격은 15 nm의 구조 였으며, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13턴의 meander 형태 인덕터 소자들을 이용하여 고주파 수동소자 응용을 위한 고주파 구조 시뮬레이션을 50 MHz에서부터 30 GHz까지 수행하였다. 주파수에 따른 인덕턴스와 품질계수를 등가회로를 이용하여 계산하였다. 시뮬레이션으로부터 자기공진주파수 (SRF, self resonance frequency)가 인덕터의 턴 수가 증가함에 따라 저주파 영역으로 이동하는 것을 확인하였고, 고주파 시뮬레이션 결과에서 산란 매개변수 (S-parameter, $S_{21}$)로부터 인덕턴스와 품질계수를 추출해내었다.

The volume change in concrete takes place with changes in temperature and water content immediately after concrete casting. In the early age stage, the thermal and drying shrinkages can cause cracks that are very crucial to the durability of concrete. It was reported that when the cement with lightly-burnt MgO powder was used, the shrinkage of concrete can be reduced. This study investigates fundamental properties of cement composites with lightly burnt MgO powder by performing various experiments. The stability test results verified that MgO powder in cement composites does not cause any abnormal expansion. Also, the hydrate product analysis results obtained from MgO cement paste showed that MgO powder reduces the shrinkage at the longterm ages. In addition, the cement composites containing the proper amount of MgO powder could improve compressive strength. Finally, the shrinkage reduction from using MgO powder can be optimized by increasing MgO replacement level and curing temperature.

Concrete containing lightly burnt MgO has long term expansibility. It also could compensate for the thermal shrinkage of mass concrete, because the hydration of MgO proceeds at a slow pace to long-term age. Thus, lightly burnt MgO has been applied to the construction of mass concrete such as dams. Recently, the expansion characteristics of MgO concrete with fly ash that could be applied to mass concrete for the reduction of hydration heat have been studied and however, limited studies on its durability. This study investigates the long-term durability characteristics of fly ash concrete with lightly burnt MgO. The durability tests on carbonation, freezing-thawing, diffusion of chloride, and resistance to sulfate attack were carried out for MgO concrete with curing for 360 days in submerged condition with different temperature of 20 and $50^{\circ}C$. The results reveal that MgO concrete shows a greater resistance of carbonation, diffusion of chloride, and resistance to sulfate attack. On the other hand the resistance of freezing-thawing was little influenced by MgO powder.

Herein, we fabricated magnesium oxalate nanostructures by chemical etching of a magnesium foil in alcoholic solvents containing acidic media. Interestingly, we could obtain magnesium oxalate nanowires in ethanolic oxalic acid. Growth mechanism for magnesium oxalate nanowires was investigated in terms of etching time. Annealing conditions were determined from TGA results. Magnesium oxalate nanowires were converted to magnesium oxide nanowires by thermal treatment and the magnesium oxide nanowires were examined by FE-SEM and FT-IR measurement.

A novel approach is presented to address issues associated with the use of strong acidic solutions for the leaching of magnesium oxide (MgO) from spent magnesia-carbon refractories. An ultrasonic flotation and separation process is employed, with a mildly acidic solvent, acetic acid, used to selectively chelate MgO from the spent refractories. When using 2 M acetic acid as a solvent, the recovery of the graphite exhibited 99.7 % with high purity of 72.7 %, showing a significant improvement compared to using water as the solvent. Furthermore, the technology presented in this study offers a method for producing magnesium acetate through the reaction of MgO in spent refractory with acetic acid, providing a means for the purification and separation of graphite.
