Copper based leadframe sheets were immersed in two kinds of hot alkaline solutions to form brown-oxide or blackoxide layer on the surface. The oxide-coated leadframe sheets were molded with epoxy molding compound (EMC). After post mold curing, the oxide-coated EMC-leadframe joints were machined to form sandwiched double-cantilever beam (SDCB) specimens. The SDCB specimens were used to measure the fracture toughness of the EMC/leadframe interfaces under quasi-Mode I loading conditions. After fracture toughness testing, the fracture surface were analyzed by various equipment to investigate failure path. An adhesion model was suggested to explain the failure path formation. The adhesion model is based on the strengthening mechanism of fiber-reinforced composite. The present paper deals with the introduction of the adhesion model. The explanation of the failure path with the proposed adhesion model was introduced in the companion paper.

Great efforts are currently devoted to the development of new approaches for the labeling of cells using appropriate radionuclides. While fluoride-18 and copper-64 have been extensively studied as short-term and intermediate-term trafficking agents, iodide was studied less intensely. Here, we report a new cell labeling agent labeled with $^{131}I$, $[^{131}I]$oleyl-4-iodobenzoate ($[^{131}I]$OIB) for long-term cell trafficking. A precursor of $[^{131}I]$OIB was obtained in two steps, with the yield of 35%. The radiochemical yield of $[^{131}I]$OIB was over 50%. While $[^{131}I]$OIB could label different cells, L6 cells showed the highest cell-labeling efficiency. The $[^{131}I]$OIB-labeled L6 cells were imprinted into a rat heart, and then monitored noninvasively for 2 weeks by gamma camera imaging. We conclude that $[^{131}I]$OIB is a good candidate molecule for a long-term cell trafficking agent.

An experiment was conducted to determine the effect of supplementation of chlortetracycline (CTC,110ppm), copper sulfate(Cu, 125ppm) and two levels of probiotics(Prob I, 0.04%, Prob II, 0.1%), Bacillus licheniformis and Bacillus subtilis) on growth performance, nutrient digestibility and manure characteristics in growing pigs. A total of 50 pigs that averaged 20.78$\pm$0.35kg BW and 50$\pm$2.3d age were allocated in a randomized block design with two pigs per pen and 5 pens per treatment. Pigs and feeders were weighed 10-days interval for the 40-d trials to determine ADG, ADFI and feed:gain ratio(F:G). Average daily gain, feed intake, feed/gain and nutrient digestibility were not improved(P>0.10) by the supplementation of CTC, Cu and two levels of probiotics. There were significant(P<0.05) Cu effects on digestibility of crude protein, and probiotics effects on digestibilities on organic matter, crude protein and energy between first 20 days and subsequent 20 days. Fecal concentrations of copper were highly increased(P<0.001) by the copper supplementation. Total bacteria and coliform counts were not altered by the supplementation of CTC, Cu and two levels of probiotics. Ammonia emission from slurry, measured during first 3 weeks, was reduced (P<0.001) in pigs fed diet with 125 ppm copper from copper sulfate. Results indicate that CTC, Cu and Probiotics supplementation had a little or not positive effect on grower pig performance under sound environmental conditions. Further studies may be warranted to investigate the effects of dietary copper-either reduced or in combination with dietary ammonia control agents-on the ammonia emission characteristics of swine manure.

Indigenous diagnostic dose of ¹³¹I-labeled meta-iodobenzylguanidine ([¹³¹I]mIBG) was prepared via Cu⁺ catalyzed isotope exchange reaction generated in situ by sodium metabisulfite for imaging of neuroblastoma tumor. [¹³¹I]mIBG was produced in overall 85-90% radiochemical yield. The average amount of radioactivity of [¹³¹I]mIBG was 2164 MBq (1998-2331MBq) with an average specific activity > 1000 MBq/mg at the end of synthesis. The radiochemical purity was ≥ 99.9% after purification through Dowex-1 × 8 ion exchange resin (100-150 mesh) at the date of preparation. The stability of [¹³¹I]mIBG at concentration 480-555 MBq/mL was > 97% at 4 ℃ after 4 days. The room temperature (25 ℃) stability of [¹³¹I]mIBG was > 98% after 24 h. Biodistribution of [¹³¹I]mIBG in patient showed uptake in salivary glands, liver, spleen and excreted though urinary bladder. Neuroendocrine medicated uptake into tumor lesion and metastatic sites were noted which strongly correlate with the morphological abnormalities of patient.

The effect of neutral ligand(L) on the precursor characteristics of (hfac)Cu(I)-L and on Cu MOCVD Process was studied. The neutral ligands of (hac)Cu(I)-L$_{x}$, such as ATMS(allytrimethylsilane), VTMS(vinyltrimethylsilane), VCH(vinylcyclohexane), MP(4-methyl-1-pentene), ACP(allylcyclopentane), and DMB(3,3-dimethyl-1-butene) were investigated. When the dissociation temperature of Cu(I)-L bond is low, low temperature deposition below $100^{\circ}C$ is possible and the resistivity of the film is low. But thermal stability of the precursor is low in this case. The resistivity is almost the same regardless of L at the deposition temperature range of $125~175^{\circ}C$. The resistivity is increased as the molecular weight of L becomes higher above $225^{\circ}C$ The vapor pressure of the precursor was closely related to the boiling point of L, the lower the boiling point of L, the higher the vapor pressurere.

Copper-bearing hydrothermal vein mineralization of the Samsan area was deposited in two stages (I and II) of quartz-calcite-sulfide veins which fill fissures in Cretaceous volcanic and sedimentary rocks of the Gyeongsang basin. The major ore minerals, chalcopyrite and sphalerite, together with pyrite, galena, hematite, and minor sulfosalts, occur with epidote and chlorite as gangue minerals in stage I quartz veins. Chlorite geothermometry, fluid inclusion and stable isotope data indicate that copper ore was deposited mainly at temperatures between $330^{\circ}C$ and $280^{\circ}C$ from fluids with salinities between 12 and 3 equiv. wt % NaCl. Evidence of fluid boiling indicates a range of pressures from ${\leq}100$ to 200 bars bars. Within ore stage I there was an apparent decrease in ${\delta}^{34}S$ values of $H_{2}S$ with paragenetic time, from 8.0 to 2.3 per mil. This pattern was likely achieved through progressive increases in activity of oxygen accompanying boiling and mixing. In the early part of the first stage, the high temperature, high salinity fluids gave way to progressively cooler and more dilute fluids of the late parts in the first stage and of the second stage. There is a systematic decrease in calculated ${\delta}^{18}O_{water}$ values with decreasing temperature in the Samsan hydrothermal system, from values of -86 per mil for early portion of stage I through -5.9 per mil for late portion of stage I to -6.3 per mil for stage II. The ${\delta}D$ values of fluid inclusion waters also decrease with paragenetic time from -76 per mil to -86 per mil. These trends combined with mineral paragenesis and fluid inclusion data are interpreted to indicate progressive cooler, more oxidizing meteoric water inundation of an early exchanged meteoric hydrothermal system.

In this paper, 23 Silla gold earrings from the sixth and seventhand centuries, excavated from the Yeongnam region, were analyzed. Based on the silver content of the gold plate, they were classified into three types. The classifications included type I(20-50wt%), type II(10-20wt%) and type III (less than 10wt%). In the analysis process, the composition and morphological differences were identified on the surface of the gold plate. In the case of type I and II earrings, it was observed that the fine holes were concentrated in a relatively higher part of the gold content. The causes of the difference in the surface composition of the gold plate were divided into four categories: 1) surface treatment, 2) thermal diffusivity in the manufacturing process, 3) differences in composition of alluvial gold, and 4) the refining method of gold. It is possible that depletion gilding was attempted to increase the gold content while intentionally removing the other metals from the surface of the gold alloy in the portion where the gold deposit is relatively concentrated on the surface of the gold plating. The highest copper content was detected in the earring with the highest gold content of the analyzed earrings, and it was assumed that thermal diffusion had occurred between the gold plate and the metal rod during the manufacturing process rather than intentional addition. Copper was detected only in the thin ring earring type, and copper was not detected in the thick ring earring type or pendant type. It also proves that this earring has a high degree of tightness at higher temperatures, as there was an invisible edge finish on other earrings and horizontal wrinkles on the gold plate surface. In terms of the material of the gold plate, we examined whether the silver content of the gold plate was natural gold or added by alloy through analyzing the alluvial gold collected in the region. As a result of the analysis, it was found that on average about 13wt% of silver is included. This suggests that type II is natural gold, type III is refined gold, and type I seems to have been alloyed with natural gold. Here, we investigated the refining method introduced in the ancient literature, both at home and abroad, about the possibility of alloying silver after the refining process of type III earrings and then making pure gold. It was found that from ancient refining methods, silver which had been present in the natural gold was removed by reacting and combining with silver chloride or silver sulfide, and long-term efforts and techniques were required to obtain pure gold through this method. Therefore, it was concluded that the possibility of adding a small amount of silver in order to increase strength after making pure gold through a refining process is low.

The tetradentate Schiff base ligand, 3,4-bis(salicylidene diimine) toluene, have been prepared by the reaction of salicylaldehyde with 3,4-diaminotoluene by Duff method. The Schiff base ligand reacts with Ni(II), Co(II), and Cu(II) ions to form new complexes, [Ni(o-BSDT)${\cdot}(H_2O)_2$], [Co(o-BSDT)${\cdot}(H_2O)$], and [Cu(o-BSDT)]. It seems that Ni(II) and Ni(II) complexes are hexacoordinated with the Schiff base ligand and two molecules of water, while the Cu(II) complexes are tetracoordinated with the Schiff base. The mole ratio of tetradentate Schiff base ligand to metals was found to be 1 : 1. The redox chemistry of these complexes was investigated by polarography and cyclic voltammetry with glassy carbon electrode in DMSO with 0.1M TEAP${\cdot}$[Ni(o-BSDT)${\cdot}(H_2O)_2$] hav EC reaction mechanisms which undergo a irreversible electron transfer followed by a fast chemical reaction. [Co(o-BSDT)${\cdot}(H_2O)_2$] undergoes a reduction of Co(II) to Co(I) and a oxidation of Co(II) to Co(III), and [Cu(o-BSDT)] undergoes a reduction of Cu(II) to Cu(I).

Hydrazine based reductive dissolution applied on magnetite oxide was investigated. Dissolution of Fe(II) and Fe(III) from magnetite takes place either by protonation, surface complexation, or reduction. Solution containing hydrazine and sulfuric acid provides hydrogen to break bonds between Fe and oxygen by protonation and electrons for the reduction of insoluble Fe(III) to soluble Fe(II) in acidic solution of pH 3. In terms of dissolution rate, numerous transition metal ions were examined and Cu(II) ion was found to be the most effective to speed up the dissolution. During the cycle of Cu(I) ions to Cu(II) ions, the released electron promoted the reduction of Fe(III) and Cu(II) ions returned to Cu(I) ion due to the oxidation of hydrazine. In the experimental results, the addition of a very low amount of cupric ion (about 0.5 mM) to the solution increased the dissolution rate about 40% on average and up to 70% for certain specific conditions. It is confirmed that even though the coordination structure of copper ions with hydrazine is not clear, the $Cu(II)/H^+/N_2H_4$ system is acceptable regarding the dissolution performance as a decontamination reagent.
