In order to vitrify the Ion-Exchange Resin(IER), Dry Active Waste(DAW), and borate concentrate generated from the commercial nuclear facilities, the glass formulation study based on the their compositions was performed. Two glasses named as RG-1 and DG-1 were formulated as the candidate glasses for the vitrification of hte IER and DAW, respectively. A glass named as MG-1 was also formulated as a candidate glass for the vitrification of the mixed wastes containing the IER, DAW, and borate concentrate. The process parameters, product qualities, and economics were evaluated for the candidate glasses and confirmed experimentally for the some properties. The glass viscosity and electrical conductivity as the process parameters were in the desired ranges. the product qualities such as glass density, chemical durability, phase stability, etc. were satisfactory. In case of vitrifying the wastes using our developed glass formulation study, the volume reduction factors for the IER, DAW and mixed wastes were evaluated as 21, 89 and 75, respectively.

This study is proposed to find an appropriate body for high expansion glass ceramics of ${Na}_2O-{Al}_2O_3-{SiO}_2$ system. The compositions of basic glasses are selected to be melted easily and to be crystallized into nepheline with various contents of alumina. The crystallization temperatures of basic glasses are determined by DTA. The crystals in the basic glasses developed by heat treatment are investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis, and thermal properties such as expansion coefficients, fusion points are measured. We find, therefore,that crystallization temperatures, crystal phases and thermal properties are affected by content of alumina.

Glass forming ranges in the AlF3-(Mg＋Sr＋Ba)F2-P2O5 system are studied and ultraviolet transmission, infrared transmission, coefficient of refractive index, thermal expansion coefficient, density and chemical durability of the glasses are determined. Glass forming range is restricted MgF2 0-10wt%, SrF2 10-50wt%, BaF2 10-40wt% in this system. While BaF2 is substituted by SrF2, density and refractive index are decreased, micro hardness and thermal expansion coefficient are increased according to the increasing of SrF2 at fixed MgF2 contents. These samples represent high transmittance(93%) from 400nm to 3800nm and chemical durability of these samples show less than 0.3mg/$\textrm{cm}^2$$.$hy by weightloss.

Nucleation and crystallzation of a quaternary glass system for lead titanate glass-ceramics were in-vestigated using DTA(differential thermal analysis ) with variation of nucleation temperature and crystal growth time. Glass samples containing 60mol% of PbO-{{{{ { TiO}_{2 } }} were prepared from melts by the conventional normal cooling method in a cylindrical brass mould. The glass sample was nucleated between 40$0^{\circ}C$ and 50$0^{\circ}C$ for a given time and showed the maximum nucleation rate at 46$0^{\circ}C$ The DTA crystallization peak temperature decreased with increasing nucleating time and decreasing heating rate during DTA runs which indicated an increase of the number of nuclei produced in the system.

We studied the anisotropic shrinkage and deformation characteristics of large size sintered bodies in the manufacturing of glass-ceramic composite wasteform. We used uranium-bearing waste, generated from the treatment of spent uranium catalyst. Sintered specimens were prepared in several forms, comprising a circular disk, and a quarter disk in several diameters of up to 40 cm. Regardless of form or size, the sintered bodies had high isotropic shrinkage when they were fabricated using green bodies prepared at 60 MPa. The average anisotropy rate and average shrinkage rate were 1.6%, and 37.4%, respectively. We confirmed that the glass-ceramic composite wasteform in a large scale disk-type for packing in a 200 L drum could be fabricated with a tolerable anisotropy shrinkage. This has resulted in a significant reduction in the volume of radioactive waste to be disposed of with highly stable wasteform.

The stabilizing characteristics of heavy metals in the silicate glass (SD), borosilicate glass (BD), and leadsilicate glass (PD) containing Electric Arc furnace (EAF) dust were studied by the Toxic Characterization Leaching Procedure (TCLP) test. Also, the dependence of the amount of EAF dust upon structural changes of SD, BD, and PD glasses and the TCLP results were investigated by the XRD and FT-IR spectroscopy. In the XRD results, all of SD, BD, and PD specimens containing dust up to 30 wt% were amorphous without crystallizing. In the TCLP test, the concentration of heavy metals leached from the glasses increased with the amount of EAF dust added. The SD specimen series showed the lowest heavy metal leaching and the heavy metal leachate of the PD specimens were lower than those of the BD specimens. But, the Pb leaching from the PD specimens was the highest in the PD glass composition due to the high Pb content. The value of oxygen/network former ratio could be used to compare the chemical durability within the same glass series, but not proper to do between the different glass series. Adding the EAF dust to the SD mother glass, decreased the Si-O-Si symmetry and increased the non-bridging oxygen, which weakened the structure and decreased the chemical durability of glasses. In the BD series glasses, the addition of EAF dust caused the structural changes from tetra-borate group to di-borate group and the formation of the 2-dimensional layer structure of pyre- and ortho- borate, which decreased the chemical durability of glasses. It is concluded that SD series glass among the 3 kinds of glasses is the most effective to stabilize the heavy metals of EAF dust.

최근 디지털 컨버젼스에 의해서 정보 단말기 network가 디지털 기술을 기반으로 유기적으로 융 복합화 되고 있으며 BT, NT, ET, IT의 융합 기술의 필요성이 점차적으로 증대되고 있다. 이러한 환경 하에서 다양한 정보 및 서비스의 송신 및 수신이 가능한 휴대 단말기의 필요성에 부응하여 기존의 전화 기능, 카메라, DMB 이외에도 홈 네트워크, mobile internet 등 더욱 다양한 기능들이 요구되고 있다. 종래에는 수동 부품과 능동 부품의 실장을 별개로 추진했으나 최근에는 수동 및 능동 부품을 하나의 패키지 내에 실장 가능하도록 하는 3-D Integration을 추진하고 있다. 지금까지 여러 부품들을 실장 시키기 위한 공정들의 대부분은 높은 온도에서 공정이 이루어졌으나 여러 부품들을 손상 없이 집적화하고 실장하기 위해서는 저온화 공정이 필요하다. 최근 많은 저온 공정 중에서 Aerosol Deposition Method는 상온에서 세라믹 후막을 성막할 수 있어 가장 주목받고 있는 공정중의 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 3-D Integration을 실현하기 위해 이종 접합에 유리하고 상온에서 성막 공정이 이루어지는 Aerosol Deposition Method를 이용하여 금속 기판 위에 금속, 폴리머, 세라믹 후막을 성막시켰다. 기판 재료로는 Cu 기판을 사용하였으며 출발 파우더로는 Polyimide 파우더와 $Al_2O_3$ 파우더, Ag 파우더를 사용하였으며 이종 접합간의 메커니즘의 양상을 보기 위해 같은 조건에서 이종 접합간의 성막률을 비교하였으며 FE-SEM으로 미세 구조를 관찰하였다. 또한 기판의 표면 거칠기에 따른 메커니즘의 양상을 연구하였다.

Applicability of crystallization kinetics on thermal analysis was investigated for PbO-TiO2-B2O3-BaO glass systems together with theoretical background of kinetics and electron microscopic observations on nu-cleation and crystallization. Kissinger equation can be used on DTA under the assumption that the nucleus density is fixed during DTA runs. Crystallization mechanism affected on the activation energy Ek obtained from powder samples which is used for domination of surface crystallization. Avrami parameter n that was obtained from Ozawa equation represented closely the crystallization mechanisms observed by an electron microscope. The modified Kissinger equation takes into account crystallization mechanism thereby pro-ducing the true activation energy of crystallization.

Currently, the demand for real-time monitoring of water quality has increased dramatically. Total organic carbon (TOC) analysis is a suitable method for real-time analysis compared with conventional biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) methods in terms of analysis time. However, this method is expensive because of the complicated internal processes involved. The photocatalytic titanium dioxide (TiO2)-based TOC method is simpler as it omits more than three preprocessing steps. This is because it reacts only with organic carbon (OC) without extra processes. We optimized the rate between the TiO2 photocatalyst and binder solution and the TiO2 concentration. The efficiency was investigated under 365 nm UV exposure onto a TiO2 coated substrate. The optimized conditions were sufficient to apply a real-time monitoring system for water quality with a short reaction time (within 10 min). We expect that it can be applied in a wide range of water quality monitoring industries.
