Three composition in the system of $YO_{1.5}-BaO-CuO$ were grown using a cold crucible (skull) melting technique with a 50 kW R.F. induction generator operating at 4 MHz as the power source. The starting materials were prepared by conventional ceramic powder processing methods, loaded into the skull, and melted at about $1200^{\circ}C$. For this study, compositions near the $YBa_2Cu_3O_X$ region were selected. The growth rates used ranged from 4 cm/hr to 0.25 cm/hr. The relation between the microstructures and the starting composition of each ingot was determined using metallograph, X-ray diffraction, and energy dispersive X-ray analysis. Both $YBa_2Cu_3O_X$ and $Y_2BaCuO_5$ needle-shaped crystals, aligned with the growth direction, were formed in the $CuO-BaCuO_2$ eutectic matrix of the $YBa_2Cu_7O_x and YBa_5Cu_{11}O_x$ ingot.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of the short-term weathering on the flame retardant performance of wood coated with Dancheong. Flame retardants were applied on the Dancheong coated Korean red pine. Flame retardants applied panels were layed at the two conditions of outdoor exposure and artificial aging to assess the reliability of artificial aging. Flame retardants used were commercial products developed for historical wooden buildings. Scanning electron micrographs revealed the forming of carbonized membrane by melting of flame retardant on wood surface. These carbonized membranes may help delay the further combustion of wood. Flame retardant performance was assessed by measuring heat release rate (HRR) and total heat release (THR) by cone calorimetry. There was no difference in flame retardant performance between before and after 6-month outdoor exposure tests. And also no difference in flame retardant performance between before and after 2-week artificial aging which corresponds to 6-month outdoor exposure. Both tests showed the similar results of combustion characteristics.

In order to overcome trade-off among compositions, process and properties of the glasses with high PbO-base composition for PDP Rib, we studied glass crystallization and crystallization kinetics by Differential Thermal Analysis(DTA). Glass powder was obtained through melting/cooling/grinding, with 3 wt%TiO2 addition for the crystal nucleation and growth in $62PbO-19B_2O_3-10SiO_2-9(Al_2O_3-K_2O-BaO-ZnO)$(in wt%) composition glass. This powder was heat-treated for 1 to 10 h at $445^{\circ}C$ for nucleation. DTA measurements were performed to obtain the crystallization peak with $5∼25^{\circ}C/min$ heating rates. DTA crystallization peak temperature increased with increasing the heating rate and decreased with increasing the heating time. Because the Avrami parameter (n) was approximately 1, the surface crystallization occurred. The maximum nucleation time was 2 h.

The effect of ozone surface treatment of montmorillonite (MMT) was investigated in thermal stabilities of polypropylene (PP) nanocomposites. Sodium montmorillonite (Na$\^$+/-MMT) was organically modified with dodecylammonium chloride. The surface properties of MMT, including the specific surface area (S$\_$BET/), equilibrium spreading pressure ($\pi$$\_$e/), and London dispersive component (${\gamma}$s$\^$L/), were studied by the BET method with $N_2$ adsorption. Also, the thermal stabilities of the nanocomposites were investigated in DSC and TGA. As experimental results, $\pi$$\_$e/ and ${\gamma}$s$\^$L/ of the ozonized dodecylammonium chloride (DA-MK ( $O_3$)) were increased in about 1.7 and 3.5 mJ/ $m^2$, resulting from the increasing of the micropores. From the DSC results, it was found that the melting temperature and crystallization temperature of PP/DA-MK and PP/DA-MK ( $O_3$) were higher that those of pure PP. These results were explained that dodecylammonium chloride of nano-scale led to a nucleation effect for PP crystallization. Also, it was found that E$\_$t/ of the PP/DA-MK ( $O_3$) nanocomposies was increased within about 64 kJ/mol. These results were probably explained by the improvement of dispersivity of DA-MK ( $O_3$) in a PP matrix.

Naphtha cracking bottoms(NCB) oil was reformed by varying the heat treatment temperature, treatment time, and nitrogen flow rate in preparation of precursor pitch for isotropic pitch-based carbon fibers and activated carbon fibers. The reformed pitches were investigated in the yield, softening point, elementary analysis, and molecular weight distribution, and then the precursors reformed were melt spun to certify the optimum reforming conditions. The optimum precursor pitch was prepared when the NCB oil was reformed at $380^{\circ}C$, 3 h and 1.25 vvm $N_2$, and it's the softening point was around $240^{\circ}C$. The reforming resulted in product yield of 21 wt％. The C/H mole ratio of the precursor pitch increased from 1.07 to 1.34, the aromaticity increased from 0.85 to 0.88. The insolubles in benzene and quinoline were 30.0 wt％ and 1.5 wt％, respectively. The spinning temperature was about $50^{\circ}C$ higher than the softening point. The molecular weights of the precursor components were distributed from 250 to 1250, and 80％ of them were in the range of 250 to 700.

분무주조법으로 제조된 Al-25Si-(Fe,V) 합금빌렛의 미세조직을 광학현미경, 주사전자현미경, 투과전자현미경으로 분석하였으며, 빌렛내에서 관찰되는 2차상의 형성거동을 정확히 분석하기 위해 over-sprayed 분말의 미세조직을 분무주조 빌렛과 함께 관찰하였다. 먼저 분무주조 빌렛을 표면으로부터 중심부까지 관찰한 결과, 분무주조 빌렛의 미세조직은 표면부 10mm 가량을 제외하고는 매우 균일한 미세조직을 보여주었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 분무주조 빌렛의 표면부와 중심부, 그리고 over-sprayed 분말조직으로 구분하여 각각에서 관찰되는 2차상을 관찰하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 분무주조 빌렛내에 형성된 2차상의 형성기구를 규명하고자 하였다. Over-sprayed 분말의 미세조직은 기지조직내에 균일하게 분포된 침상의 $\delta$-AlFeSi 상과 각형의 Si 입자로 구성되어 있었다. 반면, 분무주조 빌렛의 경우, 그 중심부에서는 기자조직내에 균일하게 분포된 막대형의 $\beta$-AlFeSi과 부정형의 조대한 Si입자가 관찰되었으며, 표면부에서는 부정형의 Si 입자와 함께 막대형의 $\beta$-AlFeSi/$\delta$-AlFeSi 복합상이 관찰되었다. 특히, 빌렛 표면부의 $\beta$-AlFeSi 상과 $\delta$-AlFeSi 상간에는 일정한 방위관계가 존재하였으며, 이러한 결과는 분무주조 빌렛내에 분포된 $\beta$-AlFeSi상들이 분무액적내에 형성된 준안정 $\delta$-AlFeSi 상으로부터 상분해되어 형성되었음을 제시한다. 이상의 분무주조 조직과 over-sprayed 분말의 미세조직으로부터 분무주조 빌렛의 최종 주조조직은 반응고상태의 분무액적 조직에 의해 지배됨을 알 수 있다.r plate)의 단면 미세조직 사진으로써 모재부와 오버레이충을 함께 보여주고 있다. 모재와 오버레이 충간의 경계면은 모재 일부가 용융된 후 웅고하면서 형성됨으로 인해서 도금이나 용사층과는 달리 매우 견고하게 결합되어 있다. 따라서 계면부의 탈락이라는 문 제점은 거의 없어 심한 응력을 받는 기계구조물 및 부품에도 본 기술은 널리 적용되고 있다. 그리고 사진 1에서 알 수 있는 바와 같이 모재와는 전혀 상이한 재료를 자유로이 선택하여 표면 유효층 일부만 오버레이시키며I 주조 및 단조가 불가능한 재료까지도 표면부에 오버레이 시킴으로 서 부품 및 설비의 제조에 있어 재료비의 절감과 제품의 수명이 획기적으로 개선될 수 있다. 그리고 최근에는 도금 빛 용사 둥과 같은 표면처리를 할 경우임의 소재 표면에 도금 및 용 사에 용이한 재료를 오버레이용접시킨 후 표면처리를 함으로써 보다 고품질의 표면층을 얻기위한 시도가 이루어지고 있다. 따라서 국내, 외의 오버레이 용접기술의 적용현황 및 대표적인 적용사례, 오버레이 용접기술 및 용접재료의 개발현황 둥을 중심으로 살펴봄으로서 아직 국내에서는 널리 알려지지 않은 본 기 술의 활용을 넓이고자 한다. within minimum time from beginning of the shutdown.및 12.36%, $101{\sim}200$일의 경우 12.78% 및 12.44%, 201일 이상의 경우 13.17% 및 11.30%로 201일 이상의 유기의 경우에만 대조구와 삭제 구간에 유의적인(p<0.05) 차이를 나타내었다.는 담수(淡水)에서 10%o의 해수(海水)로 이주된지 14일(日) 이후에 신장(腎臟)에서 수축된 것으로 나타났다. 30%o의 해수(海水)에 적응(適應)된 틸라피아의 평균 신사구체(腎絲球體)의 면적은 담수(淡水)에 적응된 개체의 면적보다 유의성있게 나타났다. 해수(海水)에 적응(適應)된 틸라피아의 신단위(腎單位)의 사

2010년 약 19.5 GWp 의 규모로 성장한 태양광 시장의 주요 소재는 실리콘을 이용한 태양전지이며, 고성능 및 고효율 태양전지 시장이 급성장 하였다. 이러한 고품질 태양전지에 사용되는 주요 원료인 9N 급 폴리실리콘은 2008년 4월 $265/kg 까지 상승하였으나, 점차 하향안정세에 있으며, 급속한 가격 경쟁을 통해 당분간 장기공급가가 50$/kg 이하로 하락할 것으로 전망된다. 이러한 실리콘 제조기술 중 가장 많이 사용되는 기술은 Trichloro-silane (TCS) 또는 Mono-silane (MS)를 사용하는 기상법인 일명 Siemens 공정이다. 이러한 기상법의 경우 12N 이상의 초고품질 실리콘 제조가 가능하나, 대규모의 설비투자(1억원/폴리실리콘 1톤)와 높은 에너지(120 kWh/kg)가 요구된다. 이에 최근 기상법이 아닌 야금학적인 정련법에 대한 기술이 개발되고 있으며, 이는 금속 실리콘을 슬래그 처리, 편석 분리, 응고 급랭, 전자빔, 플라즈마 등을 이용하여 정련하는 공정을 말한다. 야금학적 정련법은 순도 면에서 기상법에 비하여 낮은 단점이 있음에도 불구하고, 여러 장점들로 인해 활발히 연구되며 점차 실용화 되고 있는 매우 유용한 기술이다. 야금학적 정련법의 주요 장점은 기상법에 비해 약 25% 정도의 설비 투자비로 가능하고, 금속 실리콘을 직접 사용하며, 에너지 payback이 짧다. 또한, 산 및 염화실렌을 사용하지 않으므로 환경 문제를 적게 야기하고, 생산설비의 확장성도 매우 높다. 본 연구에서는 국내 규석광을 이용하여 일련의 정련 공정을 거쳐 고순도SG(Solar Grade)급 실리콘을 제조하고자 하였다. 실리콘 용융 환원로를 개발하고 순도를 높이기 위해 슬래그정련법을 이용하였으며, 생산된 3N 급의 금속 실리콘을 비기상법정련 방식인 일방향 응고와 플라즈마 정련 및 전자기유도 용해법을 이용하여 고순도의 실리콘을 제조하였다. 본 연구에서는 상업생산을 개시한 외국의 E사와 비교하여 산침출공정을 거치지 않으므로 실리콘회수율 및 환경부하 절감의 장점을 갖고 있으며 최종 순도 실리콘 6N 이상, 보론 함유량 0.2 ppm 이하를 달성하였으며, 기존 기상법 대비 약 20%의 전력 감소와 약 13%의 금속실리콘 원료 절감 효과가 있었다. 저가/고순도 SG급실리콘의 제조기술 개발은 향후 세계 태양광 시장에 대한 경쟁력을 확보하고, 시장 점유율 상승에 기여할 수 있으며, 산업 확대를 통한 주변 산업으로의 파급 효과가 매우 클 것으로 예상된다.

Recently, waste printed circuit board (PCB) has significantly increased in its amount due to the rapid development of electronic industries. Since several kinds of noxious materials and also valuable metals are contained in it, the waste PCB is in an urgent need of recycling for the dual purposes for the prevention of environmental pollution and recovery of valuable resources. Also, the catalyst which equipped in the exhaust pipes of automobiles to reduce emission of air pollutants contains precious met-als so that their recovery from the waste auto-catalysts is required. In this study, the recovery of valuable metals from waste PCB and auto-catalyst by arc furnace melting process has been investigated, which is known to be very stable and suitable f3r less production of pollutants due to its high operating temperature. The effect of the kind of flux on the recovery of precious metals was examined by using quicklime, converter slag, and copper slag as the flux. In addition, the influence of direct and alternating current and the applying direction of direct current has been investigated. It was observed that using converter or copper slag as a flux was more desirable for a higher efficiency in the precious metal recovery compared with quicklime. For the effect of current, application of direct current taking the bottom as a negative pole generally showed a better efficiency for the extraction of valuable metals from waste PCB, which was also observed for the case of waste auto-catalyst. The average recovery of precious metals from both wastes by arc furnace melting process was very high, which was up to in the range of 95～97%.

Sulphuric acid (H₂SO₄) leaching and hydrolysis were experimented for the recovery of titanum dioxide (TiO₂) from the water-leached residue followed by soda-roasting spent SCR catalysts. Sulphuric acid leaching of Ti was carried out with leachate concentration (4~8 M) and the others were fixed (temp.: 70 ℃, leaching time: 3 hrs, slurry density: 100 g/L, stirring speed: 500 rpm). For recovering of Ti from the leaching solution, hydrolysis precipitation was conducted at 100 ℃ for 2 hours in various mixing ratio (leached solution:distilled water) of 1:9 to 5:5. The maximum leachability was reached to 95.2 % in 6 M H₂SO₄ leachate. on the other hand, the leachability of Si decreased dramatically 91.7 to 3.0 % with an increase of H₂SO₄ concentration. Hydrolysis precipitation of Ti was proceeded with leaching solution of 8 M H₂SO₄ with the lowest content of Si. The yield of precipitation increased proportionally with a dilution ratio of leaching solution. Moreover, it increased generally by adding 0.2 g TiO₂ as a precipitation seed to the diluted leaching solution. Ultimately, 99.8 % of TiO₂ can be recovered with the purity of 99.46 % from the 1:9 diluted solution.

The Seoul Baekje Museum has been conducting excavations at the Ancient Tomb Complex in Seokchon-dong, Seoul (Historic Site No. 243), known to be tombs of the royal family and the ruling class during the Hanseong period of the Baekje Kingdom. In this study, gold earrings that were revealed during the excavation underwent scientific analysis and conservation treatment. Stereo microscopy, SEM, X-ray imaging, CT, and XRF were applied in the analysis, and the characteristics, internal structure, and composition of the earrings as well as their production method were investigated. The results confirmed that the main hoops of the gilt-bronze earrings were made of copper cores gilt using mercury amalgamation. The findings also revealed that the hexahedron in the middle pendant was made by connecting small rings using molten gold powder, and the pendant sphere at the end was formed by soldering two hemispheres. As for the two thin-hoop earrings, they showed similar surface compositions but were made using different methods, with one made from a copper core wrapped with a gold plate and the other made by bending a gold rod. The gold content varied depending on the item and the place of measurement, but overall the earrings showed a relatively high gold content of approximately 19 to 21K. The purity of the golden earrings and the sophisticated manufacturing techniques applied indicate the high status of the buried person and of the tomb complex in Seokchong-dong.
