금속기지 복합재료의 주조는 폭넓은 재료의 선택과 공정조건들을 제공하는 좋은 공정이다. 용탕교반기술은 압착주조 또는 분말야금과 비교하면 매우 간단하고 값이 싸기 때문에 주조방법중에서 산업응용에 가장 널리 쓰이는 좋은 방법이다. 최근에는 $\alpha$ -$Al_2O_{3(p)}$/Lo-Ex alloy 복합재료의 입자크기, 입자의 부피 분율, 기계적 성질에 있어서 Mg첨가 그리고 열팽창계수 등이 연구되어 왔다. $\alpha$ -$Al_2O_3$는 입자계면과 기지에 형성되어 기계적 성질에 중요한 역할을 하였다 대부분 복합재료의 인장강도는 증가하지 않지만 16$\mu\textrm{m}$ $\alpha$ -$Al_2O_3$ 입자를 5vol%로 첨가한 경우, 3wt.% Mg를 첨가한 복합재료의 인장강도는 증가한다. 강화재의 부피분율과 mg은 복합재료의 열팽창계수를 감소시켰다.

The $\alpha$-alumina/fused alumina/$\beta$"-alumina specimens were fabricated by addition of fused alumina to $\alpha$-alumina/$\beta$"-alumina system. The sintered densities with and without fused alumina were almost same. But, the bending strength was decreased due to the presense of defects caused by the inhomogeneous dispersion of large fused alumina particles. And the fracture toughness was also decreased because the crack propagated through the fused alumina particles due to the imperfection of $\beta$"-alumina coating around them.

A sensitivity analysis of the methods used to evaluate the transport properties of a CdZnTe detector was performed using two different radiations (${\alpha}$ particle and gamma-ray) emitted from an $^{241}Am$ source. The mobility-lifetime products of the electron-hole pair in a planar CZT detector ($5{\times}5{\times}2\;mm^3$) were determined by fitting the peak position as a function of biased voltage data to the Hecht equation. To verify the accuracy of these products derived from ${\alpha}$ particles and low-energy gamma-rays, an energy spectrum considering the transport property of the CZT detector was simulated through a combination of the deposited energy and the charge collection efficiency at a specific position. It was found that the shaping time of the amplifier module significantly affects the determination of the (${\mu}{\tau}$) products; the ${\alpha}$ particle method was stabilized with an increase in the shaping time and was less sensitive to this change compared to when the gamma-ray method was used. In the case of the simulated energy spectrum with transport properties evaluated by the ${\alpha}$ particle method, the peak position and tail were slightly different from the measured result, whereas the energy spectrum derived from the low-energy gamma-ray was in good agreement with the experimental results. From these results, it was confirmed that low-energy gamma-rays are more useful when seeking to obtain the transport properties of carriers than ${\alpha}$ particles because the methods that use gamma-rays are less influenced by the surface condition of the CZT detector. Furthermore, the analysis system employed in this study, which was configured by a combination of Monte Carlo simulation and the Hecht model, is expected to be highly applicable to the study of the characteristics of CZT detectors.

This study investigates the effect of polarity of oily soil on adhesion of oily and particulate soil to PET fabric in oily/particulate mixed soil systems. The potential energy of interaction between two particles was examined as a fundamental environment of adhesion of soil to fabrics. The ${\zeta}$-potential of ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ particles was measured by a microelectrophoresis method, and the potential energy of interaction between two particles was calculated by using the Verwey-Overbeek theory. The ${\zeta}$-potential of particle and the potential energy of interaction between two particles was slightly influenced by the polarity and type of oily soil, but increased with the increased anionic surfactant concentration and amount of oily soil. The adhesion of oily soil to fabric increased with the additional amount of polarity of oily soil and decreased surfactant concentration that was relatively high at a temperature of $60^{\circ}C$ surfactants solution. The adhesion of ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ particle to PET fabric decreased with an increased amount and polarity of oily soil and increased surfactant concentration Although some similarity exists, the general trend of the adhesion to fabric by particulate soil differ from oily soil.

The objective of this study is to reveal the sintering mechanism of mixed Ti-6Al-4V powders considering the densification and the homogenization between Ti and Al/V particles. It is found that the addition of master alloy particles into Ti enhances densification by the migration of Al into the Ti matrix prior to the self-diffusion of Ti. However, as Ti particles become coarser, sintering of the powders appears to be retarded due to slower inter-diffusion of the particles due to the reduced surface energies of Ti. Such phenomena are confirmed by a series of dilatometry tests and microstructural analyses in respect to the sintering temperature. Furthermore, the results are also consistent with the predicted activation energies for sintering. The energies are found to have decreased from 299.35 to $135.48kJ{\cdot}mol^{-1}$ by adding the Al/V particles because the activation energy for the diffusion of Al in ${\alpha}-Ti$ ($77kJ{\cdot}mol^{-1}$) is much lower than that of the self-diffusion of ${\alpha}-Ti$. The coarser Ti powders increase the energies from 135.48 to $181.16kJ{\cdot}mol^{-1}$ because the specific surface areas of Ti decrease.

The $\alpha$-zirconium phosphate particles as fine as 20 nm were fabricated through solution technique using $ZrOCl_2{\cdot}8H_2O$ and $H_3PO_4$ as precursors. Stability of $\alpha$-Zirconium phosphate could be ensured by adding excess phosphoric acid to a stoichiometric composition Instead of using reflux route that resulted in coarsening of particles due to an inevitably long aging. The excess phosphorous incorporated in the crystal could be successfully eliminated afterwards through careful washing. Moreover, heavily agglomerated particles are observed before washing, but fairly dispersed state is found out after washing treatment. Thus, it is found that dispersed state as well as phase stability is ensured through proper washing treatment.

Suspension polymerizations of styrene were conducted in the aqueous phase with tricalcium phosphate (TCP) as a stabilizer and $\alpha$, $\alpha$'-azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) as an initiator. Various amounts of initiator and stabilizer were selected and the reaction was carried out at a selected temperature between 60 to 80 $\^{C}$. It was found that the combination of 5 wt% stabilizer and 2.427$\times$10$\^$-3/ mol/L of costabilizer is the minimum amount for suspension polymerization reaction to produce particles in the aqueous phase. Particles were found to be polydisperse in diameter, regardless of reaction conditions. Class transitions were observed to be around 95$\^{C}$, nearly independent of reaction temperature and initiator. Homogenizer was found to be essential in forming particles in the proximity of tens of micrometers in diameter in suspension polymerization with TCP as stabilizer.

The binary mixture consists of two types of granular media with different physical attributes and sizes, which can be characterized by the percentage of large granules by weight (P) and the particle size ratio (${\alpha}$). Researchers determine that two thresholds ($P_S$ and $P_L$) exist for the peak shear strength of binary mixtures, i.e., at $P{\leq}P_S$, the peak shear strength is controlled by the small granules; at $P{\leq}P_L$, the peak shear strength is controlled by the large granules; at $P_S{\leq}P{\leq}P_L$, the peak shear strength is governed by both the large and small granules. However, the thresholds of binary mixtures with different ${\alpha}$ values, and the explanation related to the inner details of binary mixtures to account for why these thresholds exist, require further confirmation. This paper considers the mechanical behavior of binary mixtures with DEM analysis. The thresholds of binary mixtures are found to be strongly related to their coordination numbers $Z_L$ for all values of ${\alpha}$, where $Z_L$ denotes the partial coordination number only between the large particles. The arrangement structure of the large particles is examined when P approaches the thresholds, and a similar arrangement structure of large particles is formed in both 2D and 3D particle systems.

The aim of this study was to explore the role and effect of ginsenosides Rg1 on osteoblasts cultured with Ti particles. Osteoblasts from neonatal rats were cultured with particles and different doses of Rg1, the main active ingredient in ginsenosides Rg1. We found that the COX-2, $PGE_2$, TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-1, and IL -6 concentrations in the medium of cells cultured with Ti particles significantly increased as compared with that of the control cells (p<0.05 or p<0.01). In addition, cells cultured with Ti particles alone exhibited the highest concentrations of these molecules. The $PGE_2$, TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-1, and IL-6 levels in the medium of cells cultured with Rg1 were in between those of the control cells and the cells cultured with Ti particles alone. The IL-1ra level in the group cultured with Ti and medium-dose Rg1 was the highest followed by the cells cultured with Ti and high-dose Rg1 and those cultured with Ti and low-dose Rg1 (p<0.05). In conclusion, ginsenosides can reduce the levels of infl ammatory cytokines produced by osteoblasts on induction with Ti particles and can prevent prosthesis loosening.

The sodium ${\alpha}-sulfo$ fatty acid vinyl ester oligomers, which are oligomer type surfactants were prepared by polymerization with fatty acid vinyl acetate. The ${\alpha}-sulfonation$ of fatty acid vinyl ester oligomers were carried by direct addition of sulfur trioxide. The dispersing performance of oligomer type anionic surfactants and sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS) in the aqueous suspension of iron oxide and titanium dioxide particles was evaluated by particle size distribution and zeta-potential measurement. As results, the particles of iron oxide and titanium dioxide were flocculated by addition of small amount of oligomer type anionic surfactants and sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS), then the flocks redispersed by more addition of oligomer type anionic surfactants and SDS. The flocculation, redispersion process was observed in lower concentration range of oligomer type anionic surfactants than SDS. Especially, the dispersing action of sodium ${\alpha}-sulfo$ palmitic acid vinyl ester oligomer was better than sodium ${\alpha}-sulfo$ lauric acid vinyl ester oligomer.
