Devolatilization of the Refuse Derived Fuel(RDF) which is produced at WonJu in Korea was characterized in air atmosphere with variation of heating rate(10, 20 and $30^{\circ}C/min$) in TGA. The results of TG Analysis have shown that the pyrolysis and char combustion of the RDF occurred in the range of $350{\sim}700^{\circ}C$ depending on the heating rate. Activation energy of the RDF which was determined by using Friedman and Ozawa-Flynn-Wall method was in the range of 14.44~18.40 kcal/mol. Also, reaction order(n) and pre-exponential factors(A) were 1.219 and $3.02{\times}10^5$ by using Friedman method, respectively. In order to find out the devolatilization mechanism of the RDF, twelve solid-state mechanisms defined by Coats Redfern Method were tested. The results of the Coats Redfern Method have shown that chemical reaction is the effective mechanism by comparison with the value of the activation energy which was derived from the Friedman and Flynn-Wall-Ozawa method and correlation coefficient from twelve solid-state mechanisms of Coats Redfern Method. The solid state decomposition mechanism of the RDF was found to be a decelerated $F_1$ type, random nucleation with one nucleus on the individual particle.

Single-crystalline InSb nanowire was synthesized on $SiO_2$ wafer via vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) mechanism using chemical vapor deposition method. According to the source container system (open or close) which contain InSb powder and $SiO_2$ wafer, the single-crystalline InSb nanowires have different growth mechanisms. Structural characterization of the InSb nanowires was examined by scanning electron microscope (SEM). Composition of the nanowires was investigated using x-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS). This study demonstrates that length and diameter of the InSb nanowires are long and thick using open-boat system by VLS and additional vapor-solid (VS) mechanisms, because open-boat system can carry a large amount of vapor-phase InSb precursor than close-boat system.

The absorption rate of carbon dioxide with 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol(AMP) was measured in such non-aqueous solvents as methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, n-butanol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and propylene carbonate, and in water at 298 K and 101.3 kPa using a semi-batch stirred tank with a plane gas-liquid interface. The overall reaction rate constant, obtained under the condition of fast reaction regime, from the measured rate of absorption was used to get the elementary reaction rate constants in complicated reactions represented by reaction mechanism of carbamate formation and the order of overall reaction of $CO_2$ with amine. The correlation between the elementary reaction rate constant and the solubility parameter of the solvent was also presented.

A cycle simulation method is developed by coupling a commercial code, Ricardo's WAVE, with the SENKIN code from CHEMKIN packages to predict combustion characteristics of an HCCI engine. By solving detailed chemical kinetics the SENKIN code calculates the combustion products in the combustion chamber during the valve closing period, i.e. from IVC to EVO. Except the combustion chamber during the valve closing period the WAVE code solves thermodynamic status in the whole engine system. The cycle simulation of the complete engine system is made possible by exchanging the numerical solutions between the codes on the coupling positions of the intake port at IVC and of the exhaust port at EVO. This method is validated against the available experimental data from recent literatures. Auto ignition timing and cylinder pressure are well predicted for various engine operating conditions including a very high ECR rate although it shows a trend of sharp increase in cylinder pressure immediate after auto ignition. This trend is overpredicted especially for EGR cases, which may be due to the assumption of single-zone combustion model and the limit of the chemical kinetic model for the prediction of turbulent air-fuel mixing phenomena. A further work would be needed for the implementation of a multi-zone combustion model and the effect of turbulent mixing into the method.

The discharge of fly ash that is produced by coal-fired electric power plants is rapidly increasing in Korea. The utilization of fly ash in the raw materials would contribute to the elimination of an environmental problem and to the development of new high-performance materials. So it is needed to study the binder obtained by chemically activation of pozzolanic materials by means of a substitute for the cement. Fly ash consists of a glass phase. As it is produced from high temperature, it is a chemically stable material. Fly ash mostly consists of $SiO_2\;and\;Al_2O_3$, and it assumes the form of an oxide in the inside of fly ash. Because this reaction has not broken out by itself, it is need to supply it with additional $OH^-$ through alkali activators. Alkali activators were used for supplying it with additional $OH^-$. This paper concentrated on the strength development according to the kind of chemical activators, the curing temperature, the heat curing time. Also, according to scanning electron microscopy and X-Ray diffraction, the main reaction product in the alkali activated fly ash mortar is Zeolite of $Na_6-(AlO_2)_6-(SiO_2)_{10}-12H_2O$ type.

The rates and activation parameters for the halide $(Cl^{-}, Br^{-}, I^{-})$TeX> exchange reactions of substituted benzenesulfonyl-chloride, $XC_6H_4SO_2Cl$(X:p-MeO, H, p-Cl, p-Br, p-NO$_2l$) in dry acetone at two temperatures have been determined. It was found that the ion-pair of metal halide,$M^{+}X^{-}$, have negligible reactivity compared to free halide ions. It was also found that the nucleophilic order is $Cl^{-}>Br^{-}>I^{-}$for electron-donating substituent, and $Cl^{-}>I^{-}>Br^{-}$ for electron-withdrawing substituents. These results and convex nature of the Hammett plot are interpreted in the light of simple $S_N2$mechanism with the bond breaking becoming important for compounds with the electron withdra-wing substituents.

이 연구는 CBN을 건전한 브레이징을 하기 위해서, CBN과 금속필러메탈 접합계면에서의 금속성분과 산화물, 탄화물의 거동을 분석하는데 있다. 진공 인덕션 브레이징으로 온도는 $950{\sim}1100^{\circ}C$에서 브레이징 유지시간은 $5{\sim}30$분로 실시하였다. 금속필러로는 Ni-7Cr-3Fe-3B-4Si(wt.%)와 Ag-25Cu-5Ti(wt.%)을 사용하여 브레이징된 CBN은 $950{\sim}1000$도, 유지시간 10분 사이에서 각각 건전한 계면과 표면을 얻을 수 있었으며, 계면에서 Ti-rich상과 화합물이 확인되었다. 이상의 결과로 부터 화합물의 생성과 건전한 접합공정은 브레이징 온도와 시간이 좌우하며, N과 B, Ti의 함유량이 CBN의 브레이징 접합 특성의 중요변수로 생각되어진다. CBN과 Ni계/Ag계 브레이징 필러의 계면에서의 미세조직 및 화학반응의 메커니즘은 SEM, EPMA, XRD를 이용하여 분석하였다.

금속배선공정에서 높은 전도율과 재료의 값이 싸다는 이유로 최근 Cu를 사용하였으나, 디바이스의 구조적 특성을 유지하기 위해 높은 압력으로 인한 새로운 다공성 막(low-k)의 파괴와, 디싱과 에로젼 현상으로 인한 문제점이 발생하게 되었다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하고자, 본 논문에서는 Cu 표면에 Passivation layer를 형성 및 제거하는 개념으로 공정시 연마제를 사용하지 않으며, 낮은 압력조건에서 공정을 수행하기 위해, 전해질의 농도 변화에 따른 Liner sweep voltammetry 법을 사용하여 전압활성화에 의한 전기화학적 반응이 Cu전극에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 연구하였으며, 표면 조성을 알아보기 위하여 Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) 분석을 하였고, Cu disk의 결정성과 배향성 관찰을 위해 X-Ray diffraction (XRD)로 금속 표면을 비교하여 실험 결과로 얻어진 데이터를 통하여 ECMP 공정에 적합한 전해액 선정과 농도를 선택하였다.

기저면에 구조적 결함을 도입함으로써 그래핀과 $MoS_2$와 같은 이차원 결정의 물리, 화학, 전기 및 기계적 성질을 제어하려는 연구가 폭넓게 수행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 플라즈마 속의 산소 래디컬을 이용하여 기계적 박리법으로 만들어진 단일층 그래핀과 $MoS_2$ 표면에 구조적 결함을 유도하고 제어하는 방법을 개발하였다. 라만 및 광발광 분광법을 통해 생성된 결함 밀도를 측정하고 전하 밀도 등의 화학적 변화를 추적하였다. 그래핀의 경우 산소 플라즈마 처리 시간에 따라 결함(defect)의 정도를 보여주는 라만 D-봉우리의 높이와 넓이가 커짐을 확인하였고 이를 G-봉우리의 높이와 비교하여 정량하였다. $MoS_2$의 경우 $E{^1}_{2g}$와 $A_{1g}$-봉우리의 높이가 점점 감소하고 광발광의 세기 또한 감소함을 확인하였다. 또한 본 연구에서는 기판의 편평도가 결함 생성 속도에 미치는 영향을 비교 및 분석하여 반응 메커니즘을 제시하고자 한다.
