Epoxy-amine liquid prepolymers are extensively applied onto metallic substrates and cured to obtain painted materials or bonded joint structures. Overall performances of such systems depend on the created interphase between the organic layer and the substrate. When epoxy-amine liquid mixtures are applied onto more or less hydrated metallic oxide layer, concomitant amine chemical sorption and hydroxide dissolution appear lending to the chelate formation. As soon as the chelate concentration is higher than the solubility product, these species crystallize as sharp needles. Moreover, intrinsic and thermal residual stresses are developed within painted or bonded systems. When residual stresses are higher than the organic layer/substrate adhesion, buckling, blistering, debonding may occur leading to a catastrophic drop of system performances. Practical adhesion can be evaluated with either ultimate parameters (Fmax or Dmax) or the critical strain energy release rate, using the three point flexure test (ISO 14679-1997). We observe that, for the same system, the ultimate load decreases while residual stresses increase when the liquid/solid time increases. Ultimate loads and residual stresses depend on the metallic surface treatment. For these systems, the critical strain energy release rate which takes into account the residual stress profile and the Young's modulus gradient remains quite constant whatever the metallic surface treatment was. These variations will be discussed and correlate to the formation mechanisms of the interphase.

The crystallization characteristics of metallocene linear low density polyethylene was investigated by small angle light scattering and comparison was made with Ziegler-Natta linear low density polyethylene. The special efforts were made to find out the effects of branching number, length of branching and co-monomer content of m-LLDPE on the crystallization behavior of m-LLDPE. It was found that m-LLDPE has longer induction time to start crystallization from the amorphous state than that of conventional LLDPE with similar branching number, but the rate of crystallization seems not change much in both LLDPEs. Lowering of branching number in m-LLDPE resulted in both increasing of rate of crystallization and reducing induction time to crystallize. In general, the maximum size of spherulites of m-LLDPE is bigger than that of conventional LLDPE.

We report the synthesis and characterization of new alkoxy substituted spirobifluorene derivatives. The spiro compounds having alkoxy hydrocarbon chains were readily soluble in common organic solvents, having improved film-forming properties and had a significantly reduced tendency to crystallize, resulting in increasing their service lifetime. The results of DSC showed that it was amorphous. The optical and electroluminescent spectra were characterized. Electroluminescence (EL) properties of three-layer light emitting diodes (LED) of $ITO/TPD/spirobifluorene/Alq_3/LiF/Al$ as the active layer were characterized. Blue emission peaking of the EL spectrum of the three-layer device at 402 nm and a luminance of 3,125 $cd/m^2$ were achieved at a drive voltage 12.8 V. The luminous efficiency was obtained to be 1.7 lm/W. The color coordinate in CIE chromaticity is (0.16, 0.09), which is in a pure blue region. The external quantum efficiency was obtained to be 2.0%. The results indicate that the spirobifluorene compounds having alkoxy hydrocarbon chains are strongly potential blue emitters for LED applications.

After sintering Si3N4 containing 20wt% of variable composition ratio of Y2O3 and Al2O3 at 1$600^{\circ}C$, the specimens were annealed at 125$0^{\circ}C$ and 135$0^{\circ}C$ for 5, 10, 15 hours in order to crystallize the remanining oxynitride glass phases. The main grain-boundary crystalline phases in the Si3N4-Y2O3-Al2O3 system were melilite and YAG. By annealing 15hrs. at 125$0^{\circ}C$, almost all of the glasses were crystallized. During the growth of melilite, lattice volyume of $\beta$-Si3N4 was increased as Al3+ and O2- ions in the oxynitride glass diffuse into $\beta$-Si3N4 lattice, but during the growth of YAG, lattice volume of $\beta$-Si3N4 was decreased by reverse diffusion of Al3+ and O2- ions. In case of crystallization of glass phase to melilite, thermal expansion of sample was decreased, but in case of crystallization to YAG, inverse phenomen on was observed.

In this study DMT(Dimethylterephthalate), NDC(Dimethyl-2, 6-Naphthalene Dicarboxylate) were used to synthesize polyester polyol which shows enhanced storage stability, improved flame retardancy, and good compressive strength. If DMT and NDC react respectively with DEG(Diethylene Glycol) which is kind of linear diol, the obtained polyester polyols tend to crystallize easily after the reaction. In case of DMT, PA(Phthalic Anhydride) which has asymmetric structure was introduced to retard the crystallization. In case of NDC, DPG(Dipropylene Glycol) which has an methyl side chain was introduced to prevent the crystallization. It was found that to introduce DPG was much more effective method to prevent the crystallization than PA. NDC and DMT were reacted together with DPG for various compositions of NDC:DMT(8:2, 6:4, 4:6 mol ratio). The obtained NDC-DMT-DPG based polyester polyol showed improved flame retardancy, and good compressive strength with increasing the content of NDC.

The majority of ι-menthol is still obtained by freezing the oil of Mentha arvensis to crystallize the menthol present. This 'natural' menthol is then physically seperated by centrifuging the supernatant liquid away from the menthol crystal. But the price of natural ι-menthol has fluctuated widely so effort has been devoted to the production of ι-menthol by synthetic more readily available raw materials. In the 1970's, many researcher synthesised a new compounds with the menthol cooling effect. During this period many molecular structure designed and synthesised on concepts of correlation between structure and biological activity and the various types of molecule which give rise to cooling effect more than ι-menthol. Specially, N-alkyl-carboxamide group is substituted for the hydroxyl group in ι-menthol. Recently, the most active compounds synthesised is 4-methyl-3-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-2-[5H]-furanone. This compound is 35 times more powerful in the mouth and 512 times more powerful on the skin than ι-menthol. The cooling effect also lasts twice as long. While not yet commercially available, it is expected that these types of materials will be subjected to toxicological studies and will soon be sell on the market.

Surface morphologies and fundamental characteristics of molybdenum nitride films deposited by reactive dc magnetron sputtering were studied for application to Cu diffusion barrier. A phase transformation from Mo to $\gamma$-Mo$_2$N phase at 0.5$N_2$ flow ratio.($N_2$/(Ar+$N_2$)) equal to and larger than 0.2, whereas a second phase transformation to $\gamma$-MoN phase at 0.5 N2 flow ratio, With the variation of the N2 ratio the surface morphologies of the films were generally smooth except the cases of 0.2 and 0.3$N_2$ gas rations, where build-up of film stresses occurred. $\gamma$-Mo$_2$N film was found to crystallize at the deposition temperature of 40$0^{\circ}C$. The surfaces of $\gamma$-Mo$_2$N films deposited up to 40$0^{\circ}C$ were smooth, but the film deposited at 50$0^{\circ}C$ had very rough surface morphology. It seems that this was due to the building-up of thermal stresses at the high deposition temperature, which might lead to hillock formation.

The purpose of this study is to crystallize the factors which influence the eating-out tendency at home and work site including in the range of Daegu city. We can find out that taste is the most important element for family eating-out style. Then comes sanitation, service, reputation of a restaurant and price in that order. There are some differences between family eating-out style and workers eating-out style. The only thing that differs from above referred to statement is that price is prior to the reputation of a restaurant. Thus, taste is more important than any other factor in investigative studies. And, in case of family eating-out style, the reputation of a restaurant is prior to price. In case of workers eating-out, however, price is more important than the reputation of a restaurant.

Salting-out technique was adopted to crystallize dye crystals from dye solution. Solubility of dye solution and crystallization kinetics of Reactive Red 218 was investigated. Solubility of dye solution is decreased by higher KCl concentration. The empirical expressions of salting-out crystallization kinetics for Reactive Red 218 in continuous MSMPR crystallizer was $G=6.864{\times}10^{-5}{\Delta}C^{1.207}$ and $B^0=4.8{\times}10^{22}{\Delta}C[1.1{\times}10^{-13}+{({\Delta}C)}^{0.7}{M_T}^2]$.

Crystal structures of lanthanide complexes with NTA (NTA = nitrilotriacetate) are reported. The complexes of $[Ln(NTA)_2{\cdot}H_2O]^{3-}$ (Ln = Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb and Ho) crystallize in the orthorhombic space group Pccn. In the structures, the trivalent lanthanide ions are completely encapsulated via coordination to the two nitrogen atoms and the six carboxylate oxygen atoms of the two NTA ligands, and one water oxygen atoms. The complexes form a slightly distorted capped-square-antiprism polyhedron. Of the complexes, $[Eu(NTA)_2{\codt}H_2O]^{3-}$,\;[Tb(NTA)_2{\cdot}H_2O]^{3-}\;and\;[Dy(NTA)_2{\cdot}H_2O]^{3-}$ excited at the 325 He-Cd line produce very characteristic luminescence features, arising mostly from the f ${\to}$ f transitions. The absolute quantum yields of these complexes are determined at room temperature. Surprisingly, the $[Dy(NTA)_2{\cdot}H_2O]^{3-}$ complex is more luminescent than the $[Eu(NTA)_2{\cdot}H_2O]^{3-}\;and\;[Tb(NTA)_2{\cdot}H_2O]^{3-}$ complexes.
