YxFe2-xO3(x=0.82)의 결정상 변환을 상온에서의 x선회절과 온도구간 80-541K에서의 Mossbauer 분광 방법에 의해서 연구하였다. Xtjs 회절선은 시료가 orthorhombic 결정상과 garnet 결정상이 공존하고 있으며, 공존비는 실험오차 범위내에서 garnet 구조가 orthorhombic 구조보다 우세함을 보인다. 공존상중에서 garnet 구조의 자기상 변환온도는 536$\pm$5 K로 결정하였다. Debye 모형을 이용한 Mossbauer 스펙트럼의 recoil-free fration 분석결과는 garnet 결정상내의 d자리나 a자리에 vacancy의 존재 가능성을 시사한다. 부가적으로 시료가 포함하는 각 결정상의 Debye 특성온도를 결정하였다.

In this study, the changes in hair quality before and after Magic straight perm have been evaluated through a hair damage measurement method. For this, a healthy high school student's (age18 years) wavy hair was selected and permed on the left and right sides. Then, the changes caused by physical methods which were applied during the fl at iron-based Magic straight perm were evaluated based on the hair damage measurement method before and after the Magic straight perm. According to the protein release test after the Magic straight perm, 1.26% in average and 0.14% was observed in Cool Magic straight perm sample. In a field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) test, saw teeth-shaped partial desquamation of cuticle cells and impurities were observed in the warm-treated hair sample. In atomic force microscope (AFM), line-profile is a method to represent roughness data on hair. According to analysis on 3-dimensional (3D) images, the hair with Cool Magic straight perm was lower than the hair with Warm Magic perm in terms of the color change of 3D images. In addition, vertical changes were observed in the hair with Cool Magic perm. As a result, irregular surface roughness was observed. This study proposed a method to minimize hair damage by cooling down the heat with the cool hair straightener as soon as the Warm Magic was finished.

In this study, the lightweight design of butterfly valve disc component for power plant based on topology optimization was performed. Here, commercial finite element (FE) analysis software was used. The external shape of the basic disc model was not deformed, and the internal element density was removed to make it lightweight. Optimal design was performed each other after the disc plate and two brackets attached on the surface of the disc were separated. Once the optimal shapes were selected, they were assembled to build up the 3-D lightweight valve disc model. After applying pressure to this model, FE analysis was performed to confirm the structural safety.

We have fabricated $FeSe_x$ superconducting thin films at much different substrate temperatures of 430 and $610^{\circ}C$ on $Al_2O_3$(0001) substrates by using a pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique. Superconducting transitions for both films were shown around 10 K, but their transition width and growth directions of grains were different. We found that superconducting tetragonal FeSe phases and non-superconducting hexagonal FeSe phases were coexisted in the sample grown at the low temperature of $430^{\circ}C$, whereas the hexagonal FeSe phase was decreased with increasing fabrication temperatures.

3-D shape soft magnetic composite parts can be formed by general compaction method of powder metallurgy. In this study, the results on the high density nanostructured Fe-Si/Fe composite prepared by a warm compaction method were presented. Ball-milled Fe-25 wt.%Si powder, pure Fe powder and Si-polymer were mixed and then the powder mixture was compacted at various temperatures and pressures. Pore free density of samples up to 95% theoretical value has been obtained. The warm compacted sample prepared at 650 MPa and 240$^{\circ}C$ had highest compaction properties in comparison with other compacts prepared at 300, 400 MPa and room temperature and 120$^{\circ}C$. The magnetic properties such as core loss, magnetization saturation and coercivity were measured by B-H curve analyzer and vibration sample magnetometer.

The HDDR (hydrogenation, disproportionation, desorption, and recombination) process can be used as an effective way of converting a no coercivity Nd-Fe-B ingot material, with a coarse $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ grain structure, to a highly coercive one with a fine grain structure. Careful control of the HDDR process can lead to an anisotropic powder with good $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ grain texture; the most critical step for inducing texture is disproportionation. The critical conditions (hydrogen pressure and temperature) for the disproportionation reaction of fully hydrogenated $Nd_{12.5}Fe_{81.1-(x+y)}B_{6.4}Ga_xNb_y$ (x = 0 or 0.3, y = 0 or 0.2) alloys, in different atmospheres of pure hydrogen and a mixed gas of hydrogen and argon, was investigated with TPA (thermopiezic analyser). From this, the hydrogen pressure-temperature diagram showing the critical conditions was established. The critical disproportionation temperature of the fully hydrogenated $Nd_{12.5}Fe_{81.1-(x+y)}B_{6.4}Ga_xNb_y$ alloys was slightly increased as the hydrogen pressure decreased in both pure hydrogen and mixed gas. The critical disproportionation temperature of the hydrogenated alloys was higher in the mixed gas than in pure hydrogen. Addition of Ga and Nb increased the critical disproportionation temperature of the fully hydrogenated Nd-Fe-B alloys.

In this study, we demonstrate a facile and cost-effective way to synthesize Nd-Fe-B of various shapes such as powders, rods and fibers using electrospinning, heat-treatment and washing procedures. Initially Nd-Fe-B fibers were fabricated using electrospinning. The as-spun Nd-Fe-B fibers had diameters ranging 489 to 630 nm depending on the PVP concentration in reaction solutions. The different morphologies of the Nd₂Fe₁₄B magnetic materials were related to the difference in thickness of the as-spun fibers. The relationships between the as-spun fiber thickness, the final morphology, and magnetic properties were briefly elucidated. The intrinsic coercivity of Nd₂Fe₁₄B changed with the change in morphology from powder (3908 Oe) to fiber (4622 Oe). This work demonstrates the effect of the Nd-Fe-B magnetic properties with morphology and can be extended to the experimental design of other magnetic materials.

Microstructure and soft magnetic properties of bulk amorphous and/or nanocrystalline $Fe_{73.5}Cu_1Nb_3Si_{13.5}B_9$ alloys prepared by consolidation at 5.5GPa were investigated. The relative density of the bulk sample 1 (from amorphous powders) was 98.5% and the grain sizes were about 10.6nm. While the relative density and grain sizes of bulk sample 2 (from nanocrystalline powders) are 98% and 20.1nm, respectively. Particularly, the bulk samples exhibited a good combined magnetic property: for Sample1, $M_s=125emu/g$ and $H_c=1.5Oe;$ for Sample2, $M_s=129emu/g$ and $H_c=3.3Oe$. The success of synthesizing the nanocrystalline Fe-based bulk alloys will be encouraging for the future development of bulk nanocrystalline soft magnetic alloys.

The catalytic combustion of particulate matter (PM) is one of the key technologies to meet emission standards of diesel engine system. Therefore, we herein suggest Ag loaded $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Co_{0.2}Fe_{0.8}O_3$ perovskite web catalyst. They were produced by the electrospinning method. FE-SEM, EDS mapping, XRD, XPS were studied to investigate the crystal and morphological structures of loaded Ag particles and $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Co_{0.2}Fe_{0.8}O_3$ perovskite web catalyst. Following the catalytic soot oxidation, we found that the Ag loaded $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Co_{0.2}Fe_{0.8}O_3$ perovskiteweb catalyst showed the higher catalytic activities (e.g., $T_{50}=490^{\circ}C$) than the only $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Co_{0.2}Fe_{0.8}O_3$ perovskite web catalyst (e.g., $T_{50}=586^{\circ}C$). Thus, this finding suggests that Ag loaded $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Co_{0.2}Fe_{0.8}O_3$ perovskite web catalyst can be a promising candidate for enhancing the soot oxidation.

Recently, ultrafine grained (ufg, typically 100 > d > 500 nm) Ti-Fe eutectic materials have been highlighted due to their extraordinarily high strength and good abrasion resistance compared to conventional coarse grained (cg, d > $1{\mu}m$) materials. However, these materials exhibit limited plastic strain and toughness during room temperature deformation due to highly localized shear strain. Several approaches have been extensively studied to overcome such drawbacks, such as the addition of minor elements (Sn, Nb, Co, etc.). In this paper, we have investigated the influence of the addition of Gd and Y contents (0.3-1.0 at.%) into the binary Ti-Fe eutectic alloy. Gd and Y are chosen due to their immiscibility with Ti. Microstructural investigation reveals that the Gd phase forms in the eutectic matrix and the Gd phase size increases with increasing Gd content. The improvement of the mechanical properties is possibly correlated to the precipitation hardening. On the other hand, in the case of Ti-Fe-Y alloys, with increasing Y contents, primary phases form and lamellar spacing increases compared to the case of the eutectic alloy. Investigation of the mechanical properties reveals that the plasticity of the Ti-Fe-Y alloys is gradually improved, without a reduction of strength. These results suggest that the enhancement of the mechanical properties is closely related to the formation of the primary phase.
