In this work, we investigated the etching characteristics of TaNO thin films and the selectivity of TaNO to $SiO_2$ in an $O_2$/CF4/Ar inductively coupled plasma (ICP) system. The maximum etch rate of TaNO thin film was 297.1 nm/min at a gas mixing ratio of O2/CF4/Ar (6:16:4 sccm). At the same time, the etch rate was measured as a function of the etching parameters, such as the RF power, DC-bias voltage, and process pressure. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis showed the efficient destruction of the oxide bonds by the ion bombardment, as well as the accumulation of low volatile reaction products on the etched surface. Based on these data, the ion-assisted chemical reaction was proposed as the main etch mechanism for the $CF_4$-containing plasmas.

Performing random number simulations, we approximated that the distribution of the number of ways for arranging molecules randomly on a lattice is a normal distributon for N12, the number of interactions between the nearest neighbors of different molecules. From this distribution, an approximate equation of the excess Gibbs energy GE for a lattice solution of nonrandom mixing was derived. Using the equation, liquid-vapor equilibria of several binary solutions were calculated and compared with the calculated result of other equations.

This study dealt with the applicability and quality control of the concrete using fly ash produced in combined heat power in a construction site. Firstly, chemical and physical characteristics of the fly ash produced in combined heat power plant re analysed. Also, after investigating the properties of flesh and hardened concrete through various experiments, the fly ash concrete was placed in depositing construction in Ulsan Petrochemical Service Co. This field application was focussed on the quality control system in the site as production, placing and curing of concrete. As the result of this study, the quantity of CaO in the fly ash is relatively high based on the chemical analysis. The fly ash concrete showed slumping maintenance and high viscosity properties in the optimal mixing conditions (W/B:44~45%, S/a:$45\pm$2%, W:185kg/m). And, quality control and assurance of the fly ash concrete in actual site were verified by various testing methods.

Hardening of 2 component adhesive such as epoxy resin used in saturating FRP composite is triggered by mixing each component part within a batch. Chemical reactions occur explosively after a certain time after mixing the batch, viscosity and temperature rapidly increase. As a results, bond performance remarkably decreases and workability declines due to increase in viscosity. Therefore, adhesion should be completed before chemical hardening reaction is rapidly going on. This study examined pot life of structural adhesive for FRP composites by means of change in apparent viscosity and means of exothermic reaction temperature proposing in existing test standards. Result of each test method was compared and analyzed, and reasonable test method and evaluation method are suggested.

The silver halide precipitate tends to separate in curdy form of flocculated colloid when it is precipitated by direct mixing of reactant solutions. This type of precipitate has a great tendency to adsorb or occlude foreign ions in the solution.When silver halide in precipitated from homogeneous solution using the slow hydrolysis of Alkyl halide or Ally halide, the precipitate becomes dense, filterable and uniform in particle size which is very advantageous in gravimetric analysis.We found that silver halide precipitates obtained from homogeneous solution with hydrogen halide formed by the hydrolysis of alkyl halide do not give the color change with fluorescein as adsorption indicater, while silver halide precipitates obtained by direct mixing method give sharply pink color which appear to be uniformly distributed through the solution in silver ion excess.

This study aims to separate hydrograph into baseflow and event water to calculate baseflow rate during a rainfall in small catchments, Yuseong, Daejeon, The hydrograph of stream during a period with no excess rainfall will decay. The discharge is composed entirely of groundwater contributions. During the period, the Cl concentration of the stream water can be regarded as being in equilibrium with that of the groundwater. Using Cl as a conservative tracer, two-component hydrograph separations were performed from end point of the period to next end point. The required data were obtained by monitoring of the surface water table, along with discharge rate of stream. Cl concentration of rainfall, surface water were measured and recorded. Hydrograph separation, a mixing model using chemical tracer is applied to chemical hydrograph separation technique. These results show that baseflow rates are 31.6% of rainfall in the catchments during study period.

The excess volumes of mixing of benzyl alcohol and halothane in vesicle and in suspensions of several lipids have been determined at $25^{\circ}C$ it using a excess volume dilatometer. The potency of general anesthetics has long been known to correlate with lipid solubility. Denaturations of the vesicle, which is a sole membrane protein in the purple membrane of Halobacteriun Halobium, were studied by absorption changes at 280 nm and fluorescence changes at 330 nm and excess volume dilatometer. The particle size analysis of viscous polymer solutions by diffusional interchange is the key step by measurement. The excess volume of mixing in chitosan was found to be negative, whereas them of purple membrane, Halobacteriun Halobium and red membrane were positive in benzyl alcohol and halothane. This result was confirmed as Miller's supposition.

Performing random number simulations, we obtained an approximate distribution of the number of ways arranging molecules in a binary lattice solution of nonrandom mixing with a specific interaction. From the distribution an approximate equation of excess Gibbs energy for a binary lattice solution was derived. Using the equation, liquid-vapor equilibrium at constant pressure for 15 binary solutions were calculated and compared with the result from Wilson equation, Van Laar equation and Redlich-Kister equation.

Due to the increased construction of offshore concrete structures and the use of de-icing salts for the purpose of snow removal, the needs for the development of anti-corrosive concrete are increasing. To solve these problems, an evaluation of the mechanical and durability properties for concrete were conducted by mixing modified-sulfur as 0 %, 5 %, 10 %, 15 % cement weight ratio. Both strengths and the properties affecting durability such as water absorption coefficient, chloride ion permeability, accelerated carbonation resistance, rapid freezing and thawing, and chemical resistance were evaluated. All evaluations performed were according to the test specifications associated KS. The results indicate that mixing of modified-sulfur lowed chloride ion permeability and improved chemical resistance.

Blends of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), polyethyleneimine (PEI), and graphene oxide (GO) were prepared by solution casting method. Calorimetric thermal properties of the blends were investigated. The $T_gs$ of PVA/PEI blends were higher than the $T_gs$ of either of the component polymers at low concentrations of PEI. These abnormal increases of $T_gs$ may be due to the negative entropy of mixing which is associated with strong hydrogen bonding between PVA and PEI. The degree of depression of $T^0_ms$ was not reduced by the negative entropy of mixing, since strong hydrogen bonding also causes an increase in the magnitude of negative ${\chi}$ between PVA and PEI. The $T_g$ of PVA was increased significantly by adding 0.7 wt.% GO into PVA. The magnitude of negative ${\chi}$ was increased by adding GO into the blends of PVA and PEI.
