Modification of C/C composite bipolar plate for improving electrical conductivity was carried out by addition of electroconductive carbon black (EC-CB). Carbon black was carefully mixed to methanol-containing phenolic resin, impregnated into 2D-carbon fabrics, hot pressed and then carbonized to obtain composite plate. Inclusion of electro-conductive carbon black enhanced the electrical conductivity of the C/C composites by increasing the conduction path. Addition of 10 vol% carbon black increased the electrical conductivity from 5.5/${\Omega}cm$ to 32/${\Omega}cm$ and reduced the crack formation by filling effect, resulting in the increase of flexural properties of composite plate. However, at carbon black content over 10 vol%, flexural properties decreased by delaminating role of excess carbon black at the interface in C/C composites.

The porous silica glass prepared by the sol-gel method from the mixed solution of Si(OCH3)4, H2O, HCl and CH3OH with HCONH2 as a DCCA (Drying Control Chemical Additives). For investigation the characteristics of gels and glasses, we examined gels and glasses using TG-DTA, XRD, IR, SEM and porosimeter. The more content of formamide in the mixed solution increased, the more pore size and porosity of gel increased. In the excess formamide added gel, the properties of pore of gel were not so changed. The porous silica glass was prepared from the dry gel after heat treatment at 75$0^{\circ}C$. Porosity and mean pore size of the porous silica glass was 17~25% and 40~60$\AA$ relatively.

$Pb_{1+x}$($Fe_{0.5}$$Nb_{0.5}$)$O_3$ films have been synthesized on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrates using rfmagnetron sputtering Concentration of Fe and Nb in the deposited films was adjusted to near stoichiometry through the control of target composition, Films deposited with adjusted to near stoichiometry showed better electrical properties such as dielectic and leakage characteristics. Crystallinity and dielectric constant increased with increasing excess PbO upto 9 mol% This study also showed that dielectric constant and leakage current characteristics improved by optimum content of $O_2$ flow during deposition.

In order to investigate field emission mechanism of undoped polycrystalline diamond films, diamond films with different structural properties were deposited by varying positive substrate bias and/or $CH_4$ concentration. When increasing $CH_4$ concentration and positive substrate bias voltage, nondiamond carbon content in diamond films increased. Increase of nondiamond carbon content with increasing substrate voltage is ascribed to increase of substrate and excess generation of $CH_n$ radicals. Field emission properties of undoped polycrystalline diamond films ere significantly enhanced with increasing nondiamond carbon content. For diamond films with a small amount of nondiamond carbon, electrons are emitted through diamond surface while for the films with a large amount of nondiamond carbon, electron emission occurs through diamond bulk as well as surface. From this study, depending on nondiamond carbon content two field emission mechanisms were suggested.

We have studied the effect of sintering temperature and time on the cation ordering and second phase formation in Ba(Mg/sub 1/3/Nb/sub 2/3/)O₃(BMN) microwave ceramics by using transmission electron microscopy. The relationship between the structural-chemical behavior arid microwave dielectric properties has also been investigated. It is revealed that according to the sintering conditions the BMN ceramics show very diverse local ordering behavior, such as the development of domain twinning and "core-shell"-structured grains and the formation of local disordered domains, though having 1 : 2 cation ordering structure basically. The disordered structure is found in Mg-excess region. Such local chemical variation seems to be caused by the formation of BaNb₂O/sub 6/-like second phase in its neigh-boring grain boundary. The microwave dielectric quality factor of the ceramics decreases greatly with the increase of the structural-chemical inhomogeneity and diversity.

The method of lowering the sintering temperature and enlarging the range of sintering temperature in the manufacture of forsterite porcelain as a high frequency insulator was investigated. The four kinds of forsterite chamotte were calcinated at $1400^{\circ}C$. The forsterite bodies produced by adding $BaCO_3$ as a flux and 5% Kaolin as a bonding agent were heated in the range of sintering temperature. Sintering temperature tended to increase almost straightly as MgO exceded without $BaCO_3$. The range of sintering tem was at least $140^{\circ}C$. Specimens of MF-2-0, MF-2-A had superior mechanical strength and dielectric properties. The growing of the forsterite crystal was restricted and thus their grain size became fine and also the amount of crystal formation tended to decrease rapidly as $BaCO_3$ increased excessively.

We have examined the effect of ball-milling on the superconducting properties of $MgB_2$ doped with C. The ball-milling of pre-reacted $MgB_2$ powder was carried out in dry or wet state using C or diethylenetriamine ($C_{4}H_{13}N_3$) as additives. The diethylenetriamine, whose chemical formula contains no oxygen, was chosen to avoid an excess oxidation during doping. The superconducting transition temperature (Tc) of the ball-milled or doped $MgB_2$ powders was only slightly smaller than that of undoped $MgB_2$. The critical current density (Jc) of the highly ball-milled $MgB_2$ was higher than that of C-doped $MgB_2$. The addition of diethylenetriamine was detrimental to Jc, although Tc was almost unchanged.

In line with the Super Ultra Low Emission Vehicle (SULEV) regulation, the main idea in this study has been focused on the utilization of hydrocarbon adsorber (HCA) to adsorb the excess hydrocarbons emitted during a period of engine cold-start, As main recipes of HCA materials, many types of zeolite as well as the combination of alumina and precious metals were used, Representative physico-chemical factors of zeolite such as acidic and hydrophobic properties were characterized. The optimum recipe of HCA materials was also determined. Among the acid properties of zeolites, the Si/Al ratio was found to be the most important factor to get higher hydrocarbon adsorption capacity.

The effects of Dy$_2$O$_3$and Er$_2$O$_3$addition on the electromagnetic properties of Mn-Zn ferrite were investigated in the doping concentration range from 0.05 wt% to 0.25 wt%. All samples were prepared by standard fabrication of ferrite ceramics. The XRD patterns of sample were observed spinel and secondary phase. The densities of sample were showed nearly constant values. As the increased additive, electrical resistivity, initial permeability and real component of the series complex permeability increased with setting limits each other. Excess doped with Dy$_2$O$_3$ and Er$_2$O$_3$, those values decreased. The maximum electrical resistivity was observed with 0.15 we% and initial permeability was observed with 0.05 wt%. Magnetic loss decreased with additive and then increased in proportion to increased.
